Cider vinegar benefits?

antioxidant benefits
brian t asked:


As cider vinegar is made from cider apples, surely it cannot contain any more vitamins and minerals than apple juice or cider. Why not just drink a small glass of cider?

“west country” cider contains a good quantity of phenols and various antioxidants you could not get a decent quantity of these in a tablespoon of cider vinegar, but you get a lot in a pint of cider.

    Even better, a mixed salad with tomatoes, avocado, white grapes and pine nuts, prepared with salad herbs, olive oil and cider vinegar. A chunk of fresh buttered bread, all washed down with a strong apple cider. You’re getting all the fantastic ‘food fun’ with lashings of phenols, antioxidants and vitamins! Bring it on!!

    Well I don’t know much but I do know it helps so much when I have a sore throat. I take it in hot water with a teaspoon on honey.

    The purported medicinal benefits of apple cider vinegar are all myth and superstition, and are largely promoted by Kevin Trudeau, a known scammer. There is no documented evidence that it is truly helpful at all. Agree with the above poster, the best place for this stuff is in a salad.
