At times I will take a gallon of spring water mix with ACV,LEMON,HONEY,GINGER,Lemon Grass And keep it in the fridge. No one ever will give it a try here so I know I will always have a cold drink in the fridge. On that note does anyone drink Kombucha ? I just bought the few items to get me started in making my own I will start a thread on that when I get it going.
I think you have a good idea...what are the proportions that you use? And I await the Kombucha thread. -

All right then!
I checked out the Braggs site and found it was being sold just down the road from me.
Sooo....I am now in possession of a bottle and going to give it a shot.
It certainly has a following on the internet health food community (not counting the following
on the internet Sly community
)
The website states it should be drunk 3 times a day at 1 Tsp per drink. Could I just take a drink in the a.m.with 3 Tsps, or an actual 1/2 shot, and still receive the same benefits?

I would not recommend it for your first few days that's a lot of acetic acid to hit your system first thing in the AM for a newbie. My normal morning mix is 2 tb spoons mixed with 1 tb spoon of Organic pure Agave Nectar in a 16oz glass of spring water and plenty of ice and some times a second serving later in the day. Been doing this for two years now.

And I'm 1 TBSP vinegar plus 1 tsp honey in 12 oz water every morning. Clearly - to each his own.

Straight-up vinegar is pretty rough on throat tissue. I'd say that it's not advisable to not dilute it.

I totally agree, not to mention the taste.

Before I went sly, I was told to use diluted vinegar (50/50 water) on my head to treat seborrheic dermatitis. Since SD is basically a yeast, the sprayed on mixture would sting on contact, but was very effective in reducing the painful itching brought on by SD.
At first glance I thought you just said you use it on your scrotum.
However, since I'm now SD free (as a result of going sly), no need to apply vinegar to the Schrodome.
Anyhow, I'll pick up a jar sometime. -

This thread is making me laugh haha!!
But, to follow up with my original info on this....
the ACV really cleared up my irritated red bumps/pimples on my head. like REALLY cleared it up....
I recommend it..but do NOT let it get on your face....it dripped down my face and literally left a red irritated line straight down my face! hahaha.
Long story short, the stuff is great, but very powerful. -

@Sly5...LIL DAB 'L DO YA!! LoL!!
@Plano...Was the clearing of the bumps quick? Like over night-ish or more of a healing like over the course of a few days/week? That is weird about how it helped your scalp, but burned/irritated the skin on your face.
Hmmm....??....wonder why??....TO GOOGLE I GO

So am I supposed to just let it dry or can I wash after to get rid of the vinegar smell?

When did apply diluted ACV to my scalp, I'd let it dry, then wash my head with soap & water. Seemed to do the trick. -

You let it stay on your head for about 15 minutes...after that, just wash your head like usual. It's done wonders for my problem.
Hope it helps you!
