DEAR DR. GOTT:
I was so elated to read yourarticle on apple cider vinegar. About six months ago, I too, discovered the secret of getting a peaceful night of sleep. Just out of the blue, I started drinking apple cider vinegar before going to bed and discovered its wonderful benefits.
I mix one tablespoon of the vinegar, a teaspoon of honey and eight ounces of warm water. The “tea” is delicious and I also believe it helps to regulate high blood pressure. I also discovered it is very good for indigestion because of the enzymes it contains.
DEAR READER:
I have heard many praises over the years about apple cider vinegar and have received many letters from people who claim it cured their high blood pressure or stopped their gastro-esophageal reflux disease. Most say to drink it straight from a shot glass or to mix a small amount with two or four ounces of water.
Your recipe, on the other hand, involves only a small quantity of the vinegar which is then cut with a larger amount of water and sweetened with honey. Now, I am not sure that such a small amount will actually provide any benefits but it is harmless and worth a try.
So, readers, please write and tell me about your experiences with apple cider vinegar. Has it improved your sleep, blood pressure readings or even reduced your acid indigestion? Has it helped you in some other way?
