This is amazing! So simple and so effective. I'll be 50 soon and started having hot flashes about a year ago. Over the past month, they came much more often. Not terribly severe, but annoying and uncomfortable, especially when they happened throughout the night. As soon as I read this, I took 1 tablespoon of store-bought apple cider vinegar. It burned a bit going down for a few seconds, but was fine after that. Sometimes I take another tablespoon later in the evening. I always eat some food first. The miraculous results: no more hot flashes!!! Been taking it for over a week now... No hot flashes. It also fixed some mild heartburn I had started to experience. Yay!!!!! Try it... And spread the word!

This site is absolutely the best! I'm in menopause and for the most part have had hot flashes under control through use of Chinese herbs and something called Phyto-B. But over the past few days they started to come back with a vengence. I checked here and discovered the ACV cure and tried it (two doses yesterday and one this morning). The flashes that were starting to keep me up all night completely disappeared and I slept really well last night. Will see if it continues, but so far so good!

Also, I do have serious issues with dental enamel, so am adding 1/4 tsp baking soda and then immediately rinsing my mouth with an extra swish of baking soda in water.

Thanks to everyone here who contributes to making this such a great site!

When I found this site yesterday I was amazed at all the testamonials, so I tried the ACV and my hot flashes are almost completely gone! Thank you all for taking the time to share this information!! Like some of you, I am concerned about the amount of acid I'm ingesting. I think I'll try some baking soda in a couple of days. I take 2 Tbsp in a glass of flavored water which isn't too bad, but I also worry about that much aspartame, so I may go back to honey or stevia.

YEA!!!!!!!! I was soooo happy to find this site! I have suffered from hot flashes for over 3 years now and had gotten to the point that I was having one several times an hour. I began taking 2 tsps organic raw ACV mixed with water and organic stevia extract in the morning and evening about a week ago. I can't stand the smell or taste of vinegar, but was at wit's end, so I tried it. With the stevia, it is tolerable. I am now down to approximately 1 hot flash a day!!!!!!!! Wow Wow Wow Wow. Thank you ladies for the info, I am forever grateful.

Re: Apple Cider Vinegar for Hot Flashes - Just thought I'd let you know it's only been 12 days and the relief started @ day 1 and now I'm only having an occasional hotflash. Cannot tell you how happy I am to have learned about this site and ACV. Thank you so much.. Life is good again.

I read this thread about Apple Cider Vinegar two days ago and hurried to the healthfood store to buy some organic unfiltered. I've been on bioidentical hormones for a while now, but lately no combination was stopping the hot flashes - in fact, they were getting worse. I had them both day and night, but much more intense at night. I tried ACV yesterday in _____'s premixed drinkable form (ACV and honey). I drank 8 oz in the morning and again at night. I didn't have ANY hot flashes all day until late afternoon, and then they were much milder. Last night, I only had one and it was less intense than usual. I just went to buy a bottle of ACV to mix my own. I'm cautiously optimistic that this will continue to keep them at bay!

I was taking the store brand of apple cider vinegar for hot flashes. It was working very well. Then, I switched to the organic brand with "mother" in it because of testimonies I had read on the importance of using the raw organic ACV. Immediately, my stomach gurgled, churned, and I had terrible diarrhea. I stuck with it for a few days figuring it was just detox. Finally, not being able to stand it anymore, I switched back to the store brand that is filtered, and I am well again. Either way, my hot flashes go away. I take 1 tablespoon of ACV with 1/4 tsp. Baking soda mixed into about 1/2 cup water. It works perfectly!

HELP! I've read so much about ACV and Baking Soda helping so many women for hot flashes but have not seen anyone post about this problem I'm having.

Tried the ACV and BS remedy yesterday evening. Two hours later I had severe itching on my torso area, under my breasts and under my arm pits. Didn't think at the time that maybe the ACV and BS might have something to do with it.

Before bedtime, I took another dose (2TBLSP ACV w/ 1/4 TSP BS in a glass of water). Woke up two hours later from the heat in my body AND severe itching on my hands and feet! It was driving me crazy! It's been an hour now since the itching woke me up and it's subsided a little. Has anyone had this experience?

I used to take ACV (organic, with the "mother") with honey all the time, twice a day, before my pre-menopausal symptoms and never had a problem w/ it.

Hoping to get some responses out there!
