Apple Cider Vinegar For Acid Reflux
Apr 28, 2017Are you having severe acid reflux and wondering what to do about it? Here is a home remedy that will guarantee you relief – Apple Cider Vinegar. This wonder liquid is said to have many health benefits and can be consumed daily. Let’s find out more about Apple Cider Vinegar and how it aids in getting rid of acid reflux.
Apple Cider Vinegar is made from crushed apples and has bacteria and yeast added to it for fermentation.
Benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar
- Apple cider vinegar helps neutralise the pH balance in the stomach.
- It provides intestinal protection, while preventing acid reflux. On consumption, it introduces more acid to the digestive tract.
- Additional acid introduced by apple cider vinegar could help in avoiding intestinal problems that lead to acid reflux.
- It is said to be rich in enzymes, pectin and protein, all of which help in reducing the effects of acid reflux.
Ways to Consume Apple Cider Vinegar
There are varied ways of consuming it. For instance, a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar before a meal is said to work wonders. Apple cider vinegar isn’t the best to taste, so adding a little honey could help your taste buds accept it. Although small amounts of it can be consumed directly, it’s best to dilute it with water. Any burning sensation caused due to the acid in the vinegar can be avoided this way. You can also add it to your salad as a dressing, add it to a drink or a shake or just cook with it.
Regardless of how Apple Cider Vinegar tastes, it’s one of the best known natural and home remedies for acid reflux. Having said that, it’s advisable to seek your doctor’s advice on how best to tackle acid reflux.
