Why apple cider vinegar has been used for centuries*

ACV is one of the most studied traditional wellness ingredients. Here is what it is traditionally used for:

• Digestive support - traditionally used to support healthy digestion, particularly when taken before meals.* The acetic acid in ACV supports the body's natural digestive processes.*
• Blood sugar balance - one of the most well-documented traditional uses of ACV is its association with supporting healthy blood sugar levels after meals.* Particularly relevant for those monitoring metabolic health.*
• Immune support - ACV is literally one of the base ingredients in our Immune Super Tonic formula - the same tradition that puts garlic, ginger, and ACV together for immune support.* Taking ACV on its own extends that same tradition.*
• Gut health - raw, unfiltered ACV with the mother contains naturally occurring beneficial cultures from the fermentation process, traditionally associated with gut health support.*
• Energy and alkalizing support - traditionally used as a morning wellness ritual to support energy and the body's natural pH balance.* A small amount in water first thing is how many customers use it.*
• Weight management support - ACV has a long traditional association with healthy metabolism and appetite support when used as part of a balanced diet and active lifestyle.*

What does "with the mother" mean?

The "mother" is the natural culture of beneficial bacteria, enzymes, and proteins that forms during the fermentation of organic apples into vinegar. It appears as a slightly cloudy or stringy sediment in the bottle - that is a sign of quality, not a defect. Many commercial ACV brands filter and pasteurize it out. This one keeps it in, the way traditional ACV was always made.*

Always shake well before using to distribute the mother throughout the bottle.*

Easy ways to use it

• Morning ritual: mix half a bottle into 8oz of warm water with a squeeze of lemon and a teaspoon of Crystal Honey - a classic traditional wellness tonic.*
• With herbal tea: add a splash to any SpeedyVite herbal tea for extra depth and digestive support.*
• Pre-meal: mix into cold water and sip before eating to support healthy digestion.*
• Salad dressing: whisk with olive oil, herbs, and a pinch of salt for a quick vinaigrette.*
• On the go: keep one in your bag for whenever you need it - no measuring, no fuss.*
