Sleep aid: ACV (weightloss and energy boost too)

[Pekelo]

Why not just Apple Cider? Probably provides all the benefits of ACV with the bonus of alcohol.

Well, strong cider is my favorite alcoholic drink, but it doesn't have the "mother". They filter that out to make it look clean. The mother is the shit...

"In ACV particularly, “the mother” is a complex structure of beneficial acids that seem to have health benefits. Unrefined vinegars have a murky appearance and typically still contain the mother culture. Clear and pasteurized vinegars typically do not contain the mother culture and don’t carry the same benefits.

Apple cider vinegar with the mother is simply unrefined, unpasteurized and unfiltered ACV. The “mother” is a colony of beneficial bacteria, similar to a Kombucha SCOBY, that helps create vinegar through a secondary fermentation process."

She had it set to 74, which is way too hot for me at night
She claims that when I put it on 70, that she is freezing

But my response to her is that she can always pull the comforter over her if she's cold
There's nothing I can do at all when I wake up sweating aside from turning the temp down

God...little quarrels like that ...make me glad I'm single, -- I hate bickering, however little or friendly it may be.

Be single -- and you will sleep well, you won't need these Vinegar Apples potions.

I think this link belongs to the Superfood thread. It has nothing to do with ACV. And even if it did, why do we care what a nutjob guy thinks???

If some of you guys are bad sleepers, here is another help beside a positive P/L, sex, milk, Valeriana, Melotonin, etc.

Apple Cider Vinegar or ACV. There are a couple of good health effects of ACV and one of them is helping sleep. Yesterday I drunk a lemonade/ACV combo at 6 pm and I slept 12 hours...

For health nuts ACV is also good for giving an energy boost and suppressing appetite. You can kiss goodbye to your heart burn and acid reflex too.

2 things to remember:

1. When you buy it you have to get one with the "mother" in it, like Braggs.

2. When you drink it, you have to dilute it so you don't mess with your enamel or burn your esophagus. ACV is actually alkaline not acidic, so if you mix it with OJ or lemonade, that helps with the taste and the chemical mix of it. I took it in a glass of waterwith lemon and honey and it tasted like a refreshing lemonade.

Try it and thank me later...

Guess what is the first cure on the list for sleep apnea?

I am still experimenting how the best to take it. I have this theory if I put too much lemon into the drink that neutralizes ACV's alkaline effect too much, so today I drank it without lemon.

I also noted my appetite is much less, although I don't have to worry about weight issues...

"Many people swear by a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in a cup of hot water with honey before bed, citing its sleep-inducing powers and that it promotes a more restful night's sleep."

As I understand it, the only proven benefit of apple cider vinegar is that a couple of teaspoons a day may help improve blood sugar control in type 2 diabetics.

Beyond that, I think we might be getting into goji juice territory as it relates to claims.

Just saying.

You are the one who posted a link to his site. All I did was perform a search.

Baron and I both had a positive experience with ACV helping with sleep, so there you go, 2 more data points for the stats...

Oh OK. It didn't matter though, because the exact same list exists on other, more credible sites. I just posted one of the first ones...

Fair enough. But you guys never slept well before ACV? This is new?
