APPLE CIDER VINEGAR

[YEA]  07/19/2007: Luis from Bklyn NY, NY writes: "I do suffer from diabetes for several years. Several weeks ago I went to the doctor and they told me that my cholesterol was quite high 210. I began taking ACV once a day 2 tablespoons a day. In about a month time my cholesterol went down to 160 and blood pressure to 1about 120/80. I noticed that it is suggested to take at least to take the ACV twice to three times a day. Also is the unfiltered product is being used. Has anyone used the capsules? Two tablets do contain 600 mg of ACV. What have been the results of using the capsules? Appreciate comments. Thank you"

[YEA]  07/18/2007: Keith from Vancouver, Canada writes: "ACV and honey worked for me. I mixed acv and honey 50/50 with garlic,and took 2 tblsp twice a day. In 2 weeks my blood pressure went from 150/100 to 130/80. I place the 2 tblspoons in dandelion tea, drinking it cold from a champagne glass. I keep a jug of the tea in my fridge. Very economical and handy. It tastes better than champagne!! Probably any tea would do, and I will start using it with green tea too."

[YEA]  07/09/2007: Manjo from CT, New London writes: "My BP was high around 96/146 for several weeks. After reading experiences on this site I started ACV. Now it is normal after 3 weeks of 3 times a day 2tsp ACV with 1tsp honey and glass of water. I also exercise for 1hr daily, feel much better."

[YEA]  06/10/2007: Renee from El Dorado, Kansas writes: "Whoops... I have been taking 2 Tbls ACV with 1/8 tsp baking soda two to three times a day. A side beneift that I've noticed has been that my vision has improved. I often have bouts of seeing light distortion, very similiar to how the heat coming off hot pavement looks. This makes it very hard to see and gives me a slight eye headache. Must have been BP related."

[YEA]  06/04/2007: Greta from southeastern mountains, Kentucky writes: "Two years ago a doctor tried to put me on high blood pressure medicine and I refused. I have been trying to regulate it with just a few supplements with varied luck. The doctor said it was holding around 146/88 or so. I have found it up in the 150/92 range but only with stress and exhaustion. With the Michael's Blood Pressure Factor (naturopathic) I have kept it down to 134/76 avg. So two nights ago I started sipping the "recipe". I use 1 shot glass of ACV to same of Aloe Vera juice or gel to 8 oz water and a heaping spoonful of raw honey. Today my lowest reading. I was cleaning and sat down to take the reading. It is a battery operated cuff and I do a little deep breaths before starting. My pulse was 79 and my blood pressure (checked it twice) was 123/64 then 118/64... Something is working... In addition I have lost the brain fog and my energy level is starting to climb."

[YEA]  06/03/2007: Kathy from Richfield, Ohio writes: "In January of this year I was getting headaches and an uneasy feeling---feeling out of sorts. I am a nurse, so I had other nurses take my blood pressure and it was elevated 160/90. This just added to my anxiety because, as a nurse, I know of the devastating effects of not treating hypertension. A coworker has been on a health kick and swears by a 'tonic' that helps 'everything'. I too decided to try it. I mixed 1 cup of _______ vinegar, 1 cup raw honey and 8 cloves of garlic in a blender for about a minute. I then poured it in a clean glass pickle jar, put the lid on it and kept it in the fridge for 5 days. All this time I was checking my BP and was getting consistent readings of 150 to 170 systolic over 86 to 94 diastolic. On the 5th day, I shook my 'tonic', poured 2 tablespoons in a half glass of low sodium V8 and did this once a day for 2 weeks. At the end of 2 weeks, doing NOTHING differently except taking this everyday, I have a miracle to report. I no longer have headaches when I'm running up and down the halls, no more uneasy feelings----and the reason? My BP is back to normal. My readings are now 120 to 130 over 78 to 86, over and over again!!! NO ONE WILL EVER TELL ME THIS DOESN"T WORK ---I HAVE PROFESSIONAL WITNESSES! About 90% of the staff on my floor are converts....Something so simple with none of the side effects my patients are on with some drugs we dispense like candy. Don't be foolish---see how good you feel after a few weeks on this stuff....I feel like a kid again and even sleep soundly! That in itself is worth a million bux."

[YEA]  06/02/2007: Joel from Ottawa, Ontario writes: "I am a 49 year male that has bordered on high blood pressure for some time. I do not smoke, am not overweight and have always done some level of exercise. I do have a family history of HBP. My last visit to the doctor I had a BP of 157/101. My wife (an RN) confirmed this over the next two days. The instant solution was to put me on drugs. I refused wanting to do some research and see if there was some way I could take control of this problem. I found this web site and with some other info I gathered, I changed a few things: 1. I have been taking ACV - 2 tablespoons with 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda and a bit of water 3 times a day for 3 weeks - hint: plug your nose with your fingers, drink up and don't let go of your nose for about 10 seconds; 2. I have been taking one 6000mcg allicin Garlic pill per day; 3. I take one low dose 81 mg aspirin when I go to bed; 4. I have been walking 30 minutes per day; and 5. I cut salt right out of my diet. I went out bought a good automatic BP monitor and have been keeping a log of my BP with 3 readings per day at my doctors insistence (to prove I should go on medication). My BP as of 10 am this morning is 121/78. I am sure it is a combination of things but thought I should let other skeptics like me know that there is something real about this natural black magic, but you must commit to making a few changes. I will return to my doctor in a month with my BP log and we agreed at that time we will decide if I should go on BP medication. I hope to continue on this path and have one heck of a surprise in store for him. I'll keep you posted."

[YEA]  05/30/2007: Ramona from Loxley, Alabama writes: "I take ACV twice a day usually before meals (Lost 36lbs). Around 8:00pm I became very upset and the back of my neck up to my head was throbbing and became sick at my stomach. I pulled up blood pressure on this site and remembered to take ACV and I did two tablespoons within 15 minutes the pain went away and I was very calm and the nausea went away. Organic is the best."

[YEA]  05/30/2007: Trish from Anchorage, Alaska writes: "Hello - I just wanted to say how happy I am with the results of the Apple Cider Vinegar for a reduction of my blood pressure. The doctor was telling me that my blood pressure was too high 142/93 and was going to put me on medication if I did not get those numbers down. I did not want to take any medication and Googled your website and read about those that had written in about the positive results they were having with Apple Cider Vinegar - so I decided to try it and after only a month of using my "remedy" of about 1 TBS of _____ Apple Cider Vinegar to 8oz of grape juice 2x per day that my blood pressure went down to 133/82. My doctor was happy and so was I. I also feel a lot less achy in my joints too. So thank you, thank you for this simple remedy - it worked for me!"

[YEA]  04/29/2007: Jon from Laconia, New Hampshire writes: "Going in to the military and I needed to lower my blood pressure. 154/85 at the beginning. Since I started using Apple cider vinager, and taking 1000 mg garlic pills. My blood pressure has dropped to 139/80 which is still on the high side, but it's only been two weeks."

[YEA]  04/29/2007: Jesse from Freeport, TX writes: "Results of use of ACV: I began to take it after suffering some bouts with acid reflux, I have yet to have another bout since taking it months ago. I was also experiencing problems with allergies such as congestion and runny nose. All of the symptoms are gone. For the pas three years my blood pressure readings had been high like 158/94. My last very recent physical almost floored my physician when it read 128/68. I am convinced."

[YEA]  04/23/2007: Debbie from Hollywood, FL writes: "Apple Cider vinegar brought my blood pressure down in 2 weeks. I always had low normal blood pressure. But when I recently went to the MD for allergy medicine my blood pressure was 140/98! I freaked out, which made it worse. I should have realized something was wrong because my heard had been pounding and racing for a few weeks, and I felt different. I started with a juice fast for 2 days and I drank the cider vinegar 3 times a day for 2 weeks. I really watched what I ate (no added salt) and did a lot af areobic exercise. I went back to my yoga and mediation also. The first 9 days, my pressure was still high. But at the 2 week mark it was back to 113/79. Now I am continuing with the cider vinegar and watching my salt intake. I am eating only healthy foods. I feel great! And NO MEDS!"

During that time, I found that I had to take Vitamin E (low dose to begin with and build up gradually b/c the initial effect is to increase BP (overall, the effect is to lower BP), Lugol's Iodine, Multi-B vitamin, separate B-5 (pantothenic acid) for stress, and a high-protein diet. I hope this helps"

Thank God for ACV. The meds that I was give, stop acid from being produce in my stomach, which kept the food from digesting which caused constipation. I took ACV. and slept like a log and have been taking it for the past few months. WHAT I TOOK MAY BE MAY NOT WORK FOR YOU BECAUSE EVERYBODY BODY IS DIFFERENT, YOU HAVE TO SEE WHAT WORKS FOR YOU, AND THEN YOU'LL HAVE THE GOOD RESULTS. IT TRULY IS THE BEST THING YET!"

SINCE I CHECK MY BLOOD PRESSURE AND SUGAR EVERYDAY I KEPT A RECORD. AFTER THE VINEGAR MY BLOOD PRESSURE IS NOW 127/70 AND MY SUGAR IS BETWEEN 80 & 100. IT WENT DOWN AFTER ABOUT FIVE DAYS. IT ALSO HELPS CHOLESTEROL."

[YEA]  03/26/2007: Nancy from Miami, Florida writes: "My neighbor had shared with me the great news of how stable her blood pressure was thanks to the apple cider vinegar. I didn't believe her, so I did some research on the web and found this site. After reading all the great posts on how great this simple liquid could cure so many aliments, I went out a purchased a bottle of organic apple cider vinegar. Three days into taking the vinegar. with honey and passion fruit juice, i visited my doctor and my blood pressure was 200/90. However I still went ahead with the vinegar. mixture, which by the way taste great with the passion fruit and adjusted my salt intake. I have one kidney which is functioning well, but still I need to treasure it. Still insisting in giving the vinegar. a chance to prove itself I had another reading 5 days later. My blood pressure last night was 113/70! I never in my life had such a low reading even with the blood pressure medication. I jumped up and down of joy, I almost cried! I even took a picture of my reading, that's how excited I was. I shared with the doctor that I had begun taking the vinegar. and he didn't make a remark, he even went ahead and took me off the cholesterol medication and wants to check me again in three months. I guess he must know about apple cider vinegar! Hahaha! I am looking forward to trashing the medications soon! I feel vibrant, happy, agile. I am spreading the news. Thanks a million for all the good info you provide to those seeking to ease their aliments!"

I cannot believe that the medical profession does not know about this, all the wasted time & money spent on on these problems can be solved with a simple remedy ACV. Many thanks to earthclinic web site & ACV. Len from London Ontario"

[YEA]  02/27/2007: Raquel from Aichi Prefecture, Japan writes: "I tried to get some answers about my daughter's recurrent cough and colds and somebody gave me your site so I immediately search it. I don't know how to thank you enough because for almost a month now my kids are taking this apple cider vinegar honey-lemon with baking soda and it's really working. I stopped all medications though her cough and colds are still there because she has allergy, she now sleeps pretty well at night. One thing more, ACV has helped me a lot, I am hypertensive and I was diagnosed with Chronic Pancreatitis but after almost a month of taking ACV my blood pressure went down to 110/75 and also my amylase result went as high as 133 which is above the normal 40-110 but when I got the result today It went down to 111 which is almost normal already. I will continue taking ACV and will keep you posted. Thank you so much for your wonderful site. I'm praying that more people would find your site and that they will benefit from it. May God continue to shower you with blessings. Godbless you and your family."

[YEA]  02/14/2007: Debra from Elkhart, TX writes: "Ok, I have been reading about HBP, which I have and decided to go get some ACV. I went to the grocery store. I mixed 2tbls. with water and drank about half. It hurt my stomach at first. I think I needed more water. After about 30 minutes I noticed that my anxiety was gone. For the last week I have been panicking about my HBP, Just found out last week. I went to the emergency room 2 nights ago for it. And they told me it could be anxiety. This stuff stopped it. I didn't know that it could do that. I did a search on it and sure enough, it can end anxiety. Praise God. Now I waiting for my blood pressure to go down. I am already impressed. I feel happy. I never feel happy. I have been depressed for along time."
