I use Bragg's ACV and using it with Echinacea/Goldenseal tablets to stave off sinus infections Sept. thru May. Works for me. Has kept me from full blown flu and sinus infections I used to get. Can definitely feel the difference when I don't use it, even without the Echinacea or Goldenseal.

I don't see how those herbs would have worked beyond strengthening the immune system. Also, I believe you have to give them a rest after 7-10 days.

Raw apple cider vinegar does so many things in the body. It helps with HCL issues. I would just eschew dead flesh but for those who still eat it, some people don't have enough HCL and that helps. It detoxifies the body, as well. I am sure it must be a solvent of sorts.

Another thing to try is fresh lemon juice in distilled or purified water. First thing in the morning and you alkalinize the body, encourage elimination, and break down mucus.

Eden makes a great raw vinegar that runs a dollar cheaper than Braggs. I love making salad dressing with extra virgin olive oil, Braggs liquid aminos and raw vinegar. I just drizzle a bit of eat on top of my salad. Easy-peasy

It could be that feeling better and the vinegar were related, but maybe not. Is there anyone that uses this product on a regular basis that feels it improves their health? According to the manufacturer of this product, apple cider vinegar is supposed to be "cleansing, healing and energizing."
It appears your thread may have hit a momentary speed bump, lets see what we can do to get you some not too distant replies from a few months ago (concerning apple cider vinegar).

Hopefully you're using distilled or sterile water.

It's part of what gastric acid is made of and it's also something that is used in industry. Not apple cider vinegar.

I'm wondering if ACV would be helpful or harmful if someone has Barrett's esophagus ?
