Apple Cider Vinegar Benefits

Adrian from Herbal New Zealand

Apple cider vinegar (or ACV) is made from apple cider that has undergone fermentation to form health-promoting probiotics and enzymes, giving it significantly less sugar and fewer calories than apple cider or apple juice. Apple cider vinegar known by many as a natural cure-all for a multitude of conditions.


In modern times, the medicinal uses for apple cider vinegar were probably best publicized by D.C. Jarvis a Vermont doctor who became familiar with the use of this product as a folk remedy. Used on animals as well as humans, Jarvis found that it could cure or prevent many common ailments, from colds and viruses to arthritis and digestive problems. More recently it has become a component of some natural diets, aiding in the weight management process.


As the taste of the ACV is not preferred by most of the people, the benefit of this can be obtained by taking apple cider vinegar capsules.

Now, you can also benefit from the ACV Capsules, a relatively new product in the market that offers the same health-boosting effects but with the ease of intake.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
