Use of Apple Cider Vinegar in Health

Vinegar is said to have been found around 5000 BC. Left to itself, the grape juice first turned into wine and then into vinegar. The use of vinegar in medicine, which was previously used to preserve food, came later. Hippocrates used vinegar to heal wounds. In the 1700s, medical professionals used vinegar in a wide variety of areas, from poison ivy damage to stomachaches. Vinegar has even been used to treat Type 1 diabetes.

Vinegar, which means sour wine in French, can be made with any carbohydrate that can ferment; for example, grapes, dates, coconuts, potatoes, beets and, of course, apples. Traditionally, vinegar is made through a long and slow fermentation process. Thus, the fruit becomes rich in bioactive components such as natural acetic acid, gallic acid, catechin, epicatechin, caffeic acid, which gives apple cider vinegar an antioxidant and antimicrobial effect.
