I read this article weeks and weeks ago and found it to be really interesting. I used to make it a point to drink a glass of water with a tablespoon or so of apple cider vinegar in it a day. I’m not sure if I forgot about it or got lazy, but I just quit doing it and haven’t done this for a long time. Sometimes I feel like I need to make a binder for myself and leave it by my bed so I can read it first thing in the morning. Label it: What you need to do. i.e. Have a glass of lemon water when you get up, do your devotions, get some mascara on your face, make “x” for breakfast, don’t be crabby (!), be thankful,….and the list goes on. Treat yourself like you have amnesia. Sometimes I wonder… The mascara part came yesterday morning when Ollie asked me when we were going to go back upstairs so I could put my mascara on. “You look a little younger with your mascara on mom. Let’s go do that.” Ouch. Why drink apple cider vinegar: SPEEDS UP METABOLISM + AIDS WEIGHT LOSS Apple cider vinegar is known to kick metabolism into overdrive! An effective fat burner, it helps reduce overeating (allows you to recognize when you are full quicker), speeds up the body’s metabolic rate and helps alkalize the body. For results, one to two teaspoons of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water should be consumed before each meal. ERADICATES DANDRUFF Having a bad scalp day? Let apple cider vinegar help! Add apple cider vinegar to water in equal parts, and then bathe your scalp in the solution for up to two hours (apply via a spray bottle). This will cleanse your scalp and rid it of dandruff. You can do this a couple of times a week for severe dandruff. WHITENS TEETH Stained yellow teeth be gone! For tough stains, rub apple cider vinegar directly onto your teeth, and then rinse your mouth out with water. For a less harsh treatment (which is kinder to tooth enamel), make your own whitening mouthwash by mixing one teaspoon of apple cider vinegar with a cup of water. Easy! SHINES HAIR To remove the product build-up that dulls hair, wash your hair with normal shampoo, and then rinse with apple cider vinegar before conditioning. Cue a shiny mane! CLEARS UP SKIN I love what apple cider vinegar can do for the skin! For a natural astringent, apply a washcloth soaked in diluted apple cider vinegar to your face. This will restore your skin to its proper pH level, and make your face feel smoother and less oily (even reducing fine lines in the process). If you have any specific trouble spots i.e. age spots or acne, a dab of neat apple cider vinegar will do the trick. DETOXES THE HOME A simple cup of apple cider vinegar added to 3.5 liters of warm water makes for a super shiny anti bacterial cleaner on most surfaces, including wooden floors and tiles. It also takes the way any yucky smells that may hang in your house. HEALS A SORE THROAT If you add two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar to half a cup of water, you have a very effective throat gargle. Gargle every hour at the first sign of a sore throat. TREATS INSECT BITES If you suffer an insect bite, a dab of apple cider vinegar and water (a 50:50 mixture) can be applied directly to the bite to alleviate pain and promote healing. SOOTHES SUNBURN As we look forward to spring in the northern hemisphere, apple cider vinegar is amazing at helping reduce the irritation of sunburn – calming the skin and cooling the heat. Mix up a solution of 25% apple cider vinegar and 75% water, and apply directly to any sunburn with a washcloth. Alternatively, you can always add apple cider vinegar to a bath. CLEANS THE DISHWASHER Instead of adding poisonous chemicals to your dishwashing machine to remove build-up, apple cider vinegar works just as well (if not better) and keeps it smelling fresh. Toss a cup of it into the bottom of an empty dishwasher and run a normal cycle. ENHANCES MOOD Apple cider vinegar taken before meals helps break down proteins into amino acids. Such amino acids are instrumental in the creation of tryptophan, which plays an important role in the release of the ‘feel-good’ neurotransmitter serotonin. This helps you feel relaxed and happy. INCREASES ENERGY Apple cider vinegar contains enzymes which help prevent exhaustion. Add a tablespoon to a small glass of water. CURES ACID REFLUX AND HEARTBURN Whenever I suffer from acid reflux or heartburn, a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar sorts it out pronto! Helpful in breaking down food in the stomach, it is a natural and effective way to aid digestion. CLEANS DRAINS Tired of spending a fortune on nasty drain chemicals? You don’t have to anymore with your own natural DIY solution of apple cider vinegar, baking soda and salt. Mix half a cup of baking soda and half a cup of salt together, and pour it down your drain, followed by half a cup of apple cider vinegar. The apple cider vinegar and baking soda react with each other to clean the drain. After three hours, flush the drain through with water. IS A GREAT FABRIC CONDITIONER If you are looking for a natural and harmless way to keep your clothes feeling soft (without resorting to toxic nasties), apple cider vinegar is the answer. Adding half a cup of apple cider vinegar to your machine instead of regular fabric conditioner is all it takes. ERADICATES FOOT ODOR Suffer from smelly feet? Spray your feet with equal parts water and apple cider vinegar solution. The acid in the apple cider vinegar will help fight off bacteria that causes the smell. It is also great for foot fungus, so a winner all-round. AIDS JOINT MOBILITY Apple cider vinegar dissolves uric acid in the body, aiding joint mobility. Just add one to two cups to a warm/hot bath and have a soak for up to 30 minutes, ensuring you drink plenty of water before and afterwards. IS AN AWESOME AFTERSHAVE A brilliant aftershave, apple cider vinegar helps prevent razor burn and other soreness from shaving. Dilute 50:50 with water, and apply as you would a regular aftershave. Don’t worry about the initial smell, this disappears once the vinegar has dried. AIDS DIGESTION Apple cider vinegar contains pectin which soothes intestinal spasms. Drink one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar diluted in a cup of water before eating to help reduce gas and bloating. CLEARS UP INFECTION I’ve used apple cider vinegar to treat breast infection while nursing. It worked wonders! SHINES WINDOWS If you can’t see out of your windows due to dirt, don’t reach for the supermarket window spray. Create a 50:50 solution of apple cider vinegar and water, and spray it onto your windows. Wait for the windows to dry and then wipe them with a paper towel to remove smears. GETS RID OF WARTS Soak a cotton ball in neat apple cider vinegar and tape it to your wart overnight for as many nights as it takes. ELIMINATES HICCUPS A spoonful of pure apple cider vinegar triggers nerves in the throat stopping hiccups dead! For real! IS A SUPER DEODORANT Apple cider vinegar is a natural deodorant, and can be applied to your armpits to neutralize odors. ELIMINATES BAD BREATH Known for its odor-eating qualities, a gargle of apple cider vinegar diluted in water for ten minutes is a great way to restore your breath. HELPS REDUCE THE SYMPTOMS OF ARTHRITIS, TENDONITIS + GOUT. Is your body sore? A soothing apple cider vinegar bath might be just what you need to rid your body of pain. Add a cup to your next soak.

Jabučni ocat: Prijatelj tvog zdravlja i lijepog izgleda Foto: shutterstock SMATRA se da je jabučni ocat izuzetno zdrav i koristan, a osim što od njega možeš pripremiti ukusne salate, on može imat velik utjecaj i na tvoju ljepotu. Još za vrijeme Egipćana i Babilonaca, jabučni ocat koristio se za čišćenje tijela, a njegove blagodati upotrebljavale su se i za liječenje. Ti se danas ne moraš prati u octu, niti se pomoću njega liječiti, ali ipak postoji nekoliko korisnih stvari za koje ga možeš iskoristiti. Višak kilograma Ako želiš objaviti rat masnim naslagama, posegni za jabučnim octom. Prije svakog obroka popij čašu mlake vode u koju je umiješana žličica jabučnog octa, a on će se pobrinuti za to da se masne naslage tope. Naravno, bilo bi pametno kada bi uz ovaj tradicionalni napitak u svoj meni ubacila nešto zdraviju prehranu. Osim što otapa masnoće, jabučni ocat ima još jednu dobru osobinu: pomaže i u čišćenju organizma od štetnih tvari. Kosa Ukoliko si do sada koristila klasične regeneratore, evo recepta koji će ti uštedjeti novac, a tvoju kosu dovesti do besprijekornog sjaja. U 125 mililitara obične vode ubaci žlicu domaćeg jabučnog octa i dobro pomiješaj. Tekućinu ulij u neku praktičnu bocu i upotrijebi umjesto regeneratora. Osim što je koristan za sjaj kose, jabučni ocat neka bude tvoj saveznik u borbi s prhuti. Pola šalice jabučnog octa i isto toliko vode promiješaj, stavi u bocu s raspršivačem i pošpricaj po kosi. Smjesu na kosi drži 15 minuta, a nakon toga isperi. Ovaj tretman ponovi nekoliko puta na tjedan. Zahvaljujući tome što ocat vraća pH ravnotežu vlasišta, riješit ćeš se prhuti. Bijeli osmijeh S jabučnim octom ne treba pretjerivati. U velikim količinama može nagristi zubnu caklinu, no umjereno korištenje tvoje će zube učiniti sjajnima. Malu žličicu jabučnog octa pomiješaj s pola litre vode. S ovom kombinacijom nekoliko puta tjedno isperi zube,a nakon toga ih operi s pastom za zube. Rezultat će biti iznenađujuće bijeli zubi. Jabučni ocat je korisna stvar i u borbi protiv opeklina. Ovaj napitak potiče staničnu izgradnju kože i obnavlja tkivo, pa nekoliko kapi koje si ublažila s malo vode nanesi na opeklinu, kako bi prije prošla. Probava Ako imaš problema s probavom, posluži se jabučnim octom. Napravi napitak u koji ćeš staviti ocat, limunov sok i malo vode. Taj napitak ispiju ujutro prije doručka i tvoja probava će ubrzo profunkcionirati. Naime, jabučni ocat sadrži pektin koji sprječava zatvor. Visoki krvni tlak Ako imaš povišen krvni tlak, neka tvoj dan počne sa žlicom jabučnog octa. Kalij koji se u njemu nalazi blagotvorno djeluje na srce, a samim time snižava visok krvni tlak. Prištići Cijeli život boriš se s napadima akni, ali ništa do sada nije ti pomoglo? Prije spavanja nanesi malo jabučnog octa na vaticu i "natapkaj" po prištićima. Prištići će uskoro nestati.
