What Are the Risks of Apple Cider Vinegar? Since it's high in acid, apple cider vinegar could irritate your esophagus (the tube that connects your throat and stomach) if you drink it straight or drink too much of it. Undiluted ACV can also break down tooth enamel.

Read More »What Is Apple Cider Vinegar? Apple cider vinegar (ACV) is a type of vinegar made with crushed apples, yeast, and sugar. It's used as an ingredient in foods like salad dressings, pickles, and marinades. For many years, people have also used it as a home remedy for everything from fighting germs to preventing heartburn. More recently, research has shown that apple cider vinegar might have some real health benefits, such as helping to reduce blood sugar levels and aid weight loss. While there's not a lot of evidence for these benefits, ACV is generally harmless – as long as you use it correctly. What Are the Types of Apple Cider Vinegar? Apple cider vinegar is made through a process called fermentation. The yeast in the mixture digests the sugar in the apple juice, turning it into alcohol after a few weeks. Then, natural bacteria break the alcohol down into acetic acid, which gives vinegar its tangy taste and odor. Most ACV you find in the grocery store is the clear, pasteurized, and filtered type. But you can also buy raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar that contains a cloudy sediment. Called “the mother,” this substance is made up of settled bacteria and yeast. Some people give the mother credit for ACV's health benefits. And it's thought to contain small amounts of probiotics, healthy bacteria that are good for gut health. But research hasn’t shown that the mother offers any particular health benefit. The acetic acid in ACV is also thought to be at least partly responsible for any health benefits it has. But other types of vinegar contain acetic acid as well. You can also buy apple cider vinegar pills, powders, or gummies. But there's been little research into whether these supplements have any effect. And because the FDA doesn't regulate dietary supplements, you can't be sure exactly what's in them.
