20 Health Benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar




        In Ancient Rome, Apple cider vinegar (ACV) was considered the holy grail of the 'fountain of eternal youth'. 

It was commonly consumed for its properties as an elixir! Yes, one that has been forgotten in modern times until recently.

Apple cider vinegar as a food additive, not only tastes great on potato chips, it has many health benefits as well.

Apple cider vinegar is a very powerful health tonic and healing elixir, and is actually one of the best natural anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-fungal remedies in existence! 

It is a natural cure for urinary tract infections and also helps to re-colonize the digestive system with friendly bacteria. The beauty of ACV is not only does it cure just about every ailment in existence, it is inexpensive.

Traditionally, vinegar is made through a long, slow fermentation process, leaving it rich in bioactive components like acetic acid, gallic acid, catechin, epicatechin, caffeic acid, and more, giving it potent antioxidant, antimicrobial, and many other beneficial properties.

Hippocrates, the acclaimed father of modern medicine is the first documented physician to prescribe Apple cider vinegar as part of his holistic treatment of disease in 400 BC.


ACV is not only great as a food additive, delicious on chips but has many health benefits as well.

ACV contains pectin which lowers blood sugar levels. But this is not only for those with diabetes or could develop the disease. 

Anti-aging 

Elevated blood sugar in the body is linked to fast aging as well as other chronic diseases such as strokes, heart attacks, and kidney failure.

Prevents Urinarty Tract infections and Stones

It's a very effective alkalinising agent. By increasing your urinary pH it helps prevent urinary tract infections and the formation of kidney stones. I routinely prescribe it to my patients with kidney stones.

Malic acid contained in ACV helps with digestion and as a detoxifying agent.

Lowers Blood Pressure

ACV has high amounts of potassium, which can help lower your blood pressure levels, particularly when you eat foods high in sodium. This can lead to a healthier heart.


Other Medical Uses

As a mouthwash to treat mouth ulcers and thrush.

Proven to reduce serum lipid levels. 

Protects the liver from oxidative stress.

Dosage

There are many brands in the market but I recommend the organic, unfiltered, unpasteurised variety that contains a cloudy sediment, fondly referred to as "Mother of Vinegar". 

Adult dosage : Two spoonfuls (20mls) diluted in a glass of water (200mls) taken by mouth three times a day.

The versatile ancient remedy ACV, with a proven variety of health benefits is available at your local drug store and health food store. Insist on the organic variety with a cloudy sediment, the mother of vinegar.

Palm Wine - Aphrodisiac, Health Benefits to Man ?

    Much better than beer and grape wine and loved by bees, Palm  wine is a natural juice, a white translucent sap of a variety of palm trees.  Although I have never climbed up a palm tree, I do own a few trees in the village. Professional tappers are normally hired to climb the palm. After tapping the tree, they position a calabash to collect the constant flow of nectar.  The nectar flows up the palm naturally by osmosis and is harvested twice a day for 5 consecutive days. No artificial prservatives are used. The most delicious palm wine or better called palm juice is gotten at the bottom of the tree when the taper comes down. I should know, been there, done it. In Igbo culture, a tribe that originates in West Africa  in the south-east of present day Nigeria,  the tapper gets paid in kind with a share of the wine. The owner of the palm tree gets the palm wine for 3 days and the tapper's share is 2 days. Then the palm tree gets to rest for 2 days. Palm wine has the sweet tast
