Apple Cider Vinegar FAQ

Q: What is unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar, and what does it do?

Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar, also known as ACV, is fermented apple cider that contains 'the Mother' - strands of proteins, enzymes, friendly bacteria, some amino acids and antioxidants- that has many health benefits. It has become well-known as a supplement that may help with your efforts to lose weight, suppress your appetite, reduce cholesterol and sugar levels and even cleanse your intestinal tract. It can do things that other healthcare supplements simply can’t. While many dietary supplements exert only one effect on the body, ACV sets itself apart as a multi-action solution.

Essentially, Apple Cider Vinegar, acts as a powerful antioxidant that helps the body in many ways such as naturally speeding up the process of burning fat, boosting weight loss, cleansing the intestinal tract for detoxification, lowering cholesterol, reducing blood sugar and helping to improve heart health. If you are looking to reach optimal health in a natural way, then an ACV supplement is definitely for you.

Q: Do all Apple Cider Vinegar supplements work the same?

Unfortunately, no. Many fly-by-night companies just ride the latest health trends, manufacturing inferior products with the wrong ingredients and proportions. They often use cheap additives and synthetic ingredients that do not have the optimal desired effect as active ingredients. Most do not include an effective daily serving of 1600 mg, are filtered and do not contain 'the Mother', either have less than 5% of Acetic Acid which renders it ineffective or have more than 20% which is considered potentially dangerous and most do not include Piperine which is key to speeding up the positive benefits by increasing absorption.

Q: What should I look for?

Make sure the supplement you choose contains top quality Apple Cider Vinegar with a daily serving of 1600 mg. In the better quality capsules, this will be the only ingredient, because that is all that is needed to optimize health. Besides this, there should be nothing else included other than the capsule itself or something to aid in absorption. So, look out for supplements that contain Piperine, this is well known to aid absorption of the nutrients and enhance the benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar.

Q: What about safety? Are there side effects to watch out for?

From our research, we did not find any negative interactions between Apple Cider Vinegar and other medications or conditions. However, we still recommend consulting with a healthcare professional if you have a pre-existing medical condition or take any medications on a regular basis. Also, pregnant or nursing women are advised not to take any supplements without a doctor’s approval.

Q: How do I take an Apple Cider Vinegar supplement?

You should take the capsules as per the manufacturer’s instructions. Usually, it is 2 capsules a day. Some people like taking the complete dosage all at once, but we recommend spacing it out to get the most from the effective ingredients. As with any type of supplement, you should not exceed the recommended daily dosage, since this can pose health risks.

Q: How long will it take to see the effects?

Some customers we spoke to reported experiencing positive changes in as little as one week. For others, it took about a month. Results also seem to be a bit different for each person. Some felt unbelievable changes right away, while others took a little longer. Many of the reputable brands we reviewed offer refunds to customers who don’t get the results they want within any time frame.

Q: How much do Apple Cider Vinegar supplements cost?

The cost of Apple Cider Vinegar supplements varies based on the manufacturer. Many of them are worthless, just random companies with cheap quality products trying to cash in on the trend. Some of these companies sell their supplements for as much as $100 per bottle, which we think is a bit too expensive. Most of the really good supplements we tested fell in the $40-$50 range. Others may appear cheaper, but they often boast a one-month supply when they’re really giving you half the recommended dosage with plenty of fillers and binders.
