Acid Indigestion: Apple Cider Vinegar and Water Mixture Aids Digestion: How? versus "Acid Blockers"
I have posted another topic in this Forum on GI/gut about how important Immuno Dophils and Immuno FOS are and why, related to essentially being your 'intestinal body guards'. I related how people often ask for my #1 overall tip for wellness, and that's is undeniably #1. (You can click the rightmost link above this window and see it in the list or the direct link is: www.lumigrate.com/forum/gastro-intestinal-terrain-liver-and-body-wide-detoxification.)
There's another key to wellness that's on the list too, and not far behind! How many people do you know taking some sort of “Purple Pill” ... some brand names are Zantac or Pepcid. The pills are designed to “control” acid stomach.
Would it surprise you to know that almost ALL of those people have too little stomach acid rather than toomuch? If you are one of these people or know someone who is, suggest they take an empty bottle and mix 1/3 part apple cider vinegar and 2/3 parts water. By taking an ounce or two AFTER each meal, within a few days of having this “acid mixture” after a meal, it’s likely the “acid blocker” won't be needed anymore.
The really cool part is that although apple cider vinegar is an acid, when you take it to aid your digestion, your body begins to alkalize as it metabolizes the vinegar at the cellular level. These effects are good, healthful "functional" things (meaning going to the underlying cause of a symptom", instead of blocking the acid that your body needs with pills of one kind or another.
Different approaches from different perspectives in the medical world, ours is from the more holistic/functional approach which is the reason our information 'fits' so well here at Lumigrate.com. I hope this piece has been helpful to you and you'll see in my signature below how to find our website, email me, or find us on Facebook. I hope you do, and that you maintain or find the level of wellness you are seeking!
