Apple Cider Vinegar

Apple cider vinegar is a tasty garnish which is a beneficial addition to your food on the Paleo diet. As part of your Paleo diet, you may like to try and incorporate Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) in some when you can, as it is known to offer a wide range of health benefits. Instead of turning to anti-ageing lotions and potions, Apple Cider Vinegar is a good alternative as it is known to slow down the signs of ageing.

Apple cider vinegar is also known to reduce and clear up problems with acne, whether taken orally or applied directly to the skin when diluted with some water.

If you are suffering from a nasty cough which is often the case during the winter, Apple Cider Vinegar is known to reduce the effects and clear it up. It is also beneficial for clearing up the sinuses, so if your immune system needs a bit of a boost, apple cider vinegar will really help. There are a number of other benefits to making apple cider vinegar a part of your daily diet, including the fact that it promotes digestion as it promotes healthy bacteria throughout the body. It can also help with menstrual cramps and act as a way of encouraging weight loss. These are the reasons why Apple Cider Vinegar is such a huge part of the Paleo diet.

Apple Cider Vinegar can also be taken to combat constipation, as it is known to improve the movement of the bowels. It is well worth introducing Apple Cider Vinegar at the start of your journey with the Paleo diet, so you can reap the benefits of it from the offset.

How To Add Apple Cider Vinegar To Your Diet

There are many ways in which you can incorporate Apple Cider Vinegar as part of the Paleo diet. As your diet will include eating a lot of salads and vegetables, it can act as a garnish to improve the taste of your foods and make them more enjoyable. It is a much healthier alternative to using mayonnaise as your garnish, as this won’t offer all the healthy benefits as Apple Cider Vinegar.

Another way to consume Apple Cider Vinegar is to add a drop of it to a glass of water to it in the morning. You will soon notice the benefits of it on your skin and how you feel. You only need to use a little of it on a daily basis, so even if you don’t particularly like the flavour of it, it shouldn't over-ride the taste of your foods.

If you want to achieve the best health benefits from your Paleo diet, stock up on loads of meat, fresh fish, vegetables and fruits the next time you do your weekly shopping. In addition, make sure Apple Cider Vinegar is on your list to make your foods tastier and include some seeds for eating as one of your snacks. If you can’t resist chocolate, make sure you choose dark chocolate as this is rich in anti-oxidants. There is no reason why you should be craving unhealthier foods on the Paleo diet and with the addition of garnishes such as the Apple Cider Vinegar; you will be much less likely to fall off the wagon.

    Does regular apple cider vinegar have the same effect as raw apple cider vinegar? I have drank raw before with a little honey and it was tasty and cleared up a nasty cold. A pint was almost the same price as gallon jugs next to the white vinegar in the salad dressing aisle.

      I’ve not compared the difference between raw and non raw actually William, but I wouldn’t have thought there would be much difference in taste?

    A naturopath recommended I take a spoonful of ACV before meals to assist with low stomach acid.

    I take about 3-4 teaspoons in a glass of warm water every single morning. I suffer from coeliac disease and I find it helps with my digestion.

    I’ve tried it and I find even diluted it just puts my teeth on edge. Though I don’t give up easily I just find the taste too deep.

      Gillian…
      Next time you are in the health food section of the store… try looking for natural high energy drinks that contain organic acv with concord grape and acai juices…. it rocks…. in a 16 oz glass bottle that looks like the bottles the milk man left on our porch a half century ago… it is mild and not too sweet…. I was very pleasantly surprised when my sister brought me a bottle of it for ‘cold relief and soar throat’… it worked… find it.. you will be glad.

    I’ve been having two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar everyday, I mix it with honey in warm water on empty stomach every day morning. I feel there is a noticeable change on my skin and as well as my digestion and weight loss. Also suggested to my dad, who had a bad throat and it worked.
