If you drink a glass of warm water with lemon and a tablespoon of raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar before each meal or snack, this will decrease your appetite and help you digest your food better. \nhttp://curezone.com/blogs/m.asp?f=179&i=51\n\nI would also like to suggest drinking six glasses of distilled water each day with 1/4 teaspoon of unrefined sea salt for the same reasons. Combined, these two low cost methods plus exercise will help you acheive weightloss and cleanse your body.\n\nAlso eliminate all dairy and white bread from your diet.\n\nCheck my blog out about all of the health benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar: http://curezone.com/blogs/m.asp?f=179&i=51\nhttp://curezone.com/blogs/f.asp?f=179&p=1

What it does?\n\nAlpha-lipoic acid affects nearly every cell in the body. It assists all of the B vitamins -- including thiamin, riboflavin, pantothenic acid, and niacin -- in converting carbohydrates, protein, and fats found in foods into energy the body can store and later use. Alpha-lipoic acid is a cell-protecting antioxidant that may help the body recycle other antioxidants, such as vitamins C and E, boosting their potency. Thanks to its unique chemical properties, alpha-lipoic acid is easily absorbed by most tissues in the body, including the brain, nerves, and liver, making it valuable for treating a wide range of ailments. \n\nForms: Tablet, and Capsule\nAlpha-lipoic acid can be purchased as an individual supplement or part of a general antioxidant booster, along with vitamins C, E, and other antioxidants. Look for it on the ingredients list; it may also be called thioctic acid. \n\nCommon Uses-\nHelps treat numbness, tingling, and other symptoms of nerve damage in people with diabetes or other conditions. \nProtects the liver in hepatitis, alcohol abuse, or exposure to poisons or toxic chemicals. \nAids in preventing cataracts. \nMay help preserve memory in Alzheimer's disease. \nServes as a high-potency antioxidant and possible immune booster, combating a wide range of disorders, including psoriasis, fibromyalgia, and AIDS. \n\nDosage: To treat specific disorders: \nAlpha-lipoic acid is usually taken in doses of 100 to 200 mg three times a day. \nFor general antioxidant support: Lower doses of 50 to 150 mg a day may be used.\n\nGuidelines for use: Alpha-lipoic acid can be taken with or without food. No major adverse effects have been reported.\n\nPossible side effects:\nAlpha-lipoic acid appears to be very safe, and there have been no reports of serious side effects in people taking it. Occasionally, the supplement may produce mild gastrointestinal upset, and in rare cases, allergic skin rashes have occurred. If side effects appear, lower the dose or discontinue using the supplement\n\nWarnings:\n\nFor people with diabetes, the use of alpha-lipoic acid may require a change in insulin or other medications. \nReminder: If you have a medical condition, talk to your doctor before taking supplements.

No, there isn't any clinical evidence showing improvement of gout after drinking vinegar and water.  Many websites and folk remedies suggest that vinegar would make your blood "alkaline" to prevent gout, but the science behind this theory is very weak. \n \nThe swelling and painful joints characterized in gout are due to little uric acid crystals in your joints.  These uric acid crystals form when your body breaks down too much purine nucleotides.  (Purine nucleotides are the ATP and GTP in a cell's DNA.)  If you eat foods that are high in purine nucleotides (ie: alcohol - especially red wine, red meat, organ meats such as liver, and oily fish such as salmon), your body will have to digest the purine nucleotides in these foods, and as it digests them, it will form uric acid. \n \nWhen there's not much uric acid and the blood pH is normal (around pH 7), uric acid usually stays dissolved in the blood, and our body can get rid of it by excreting it in the urine.\n \nHowever, when there's too much uric acid (either by eating too much alcohol and meat, or if our body lacks a certain enzyme that helps recycle these purine nucleotides), the uric acid will start to form crystals.   \n \nAnother factor in the formation of uric acid crystals is the pH.  Uric acid will form crystals when the pH is below pH 5.8.  Usually, our blood pH does not become so low, unless the person can't control his diabetes, or is on a strict protein diet.  But usually, if our kidneys are functioning normally, our blood pH rarely goes below pH 6.8, even if we drink/eat acidic foods with pH below pH 7 (ie: oranges, lemons, vinegar).  So in a person with healthy kidneys, blood pH is not usually the cause of uric acid crystal formation, and drinking vinegar would not make a difference on the gout. \n \nAlso, vinegar is not an alkaline drink like so many websites say.  The definition of "alkaline" is when the liquid has a pH above pH 7.  The pH range of vinegar is somewhere between pH 3 to pH 6, depending on how much water you add to the vinegar.   So vinegar is not alkaline, it is really ACIDIC.  And since the pH of vinegar is below pH 5.8, it would actually cause uric acid crystals to form, worsening gout.\n \nIn a nutshell, there's no proof that vinegar will stop gout.  Theoretically, vinegar would not have any affect on gout, and if it did, it would actually WORSEN gout rather than stop the gout.\n\nBelow is some more information about treating gout:\nhttp://www.gpnotebook.co.uk/cache/1536819218.htm\n\nBasically, avcid alcohol, organ meats, and oily fish.  And drink lots of water.  Vinegar is harmless, but it will not help gout.\n\nHope this helps, and be sure to talk with your doctor!

If you drop a tooth into concentrated acid (e.g. sulfuric acid) nothing much happens. You might expect a bit of a fizz, but this is not the case. The tooth has to be in the acid for quite some time before any difference is noticeable.\nThe acetic acid in vinegar is very dilute, so even if you rinsed your mouth with vinegar it would not harm your teeth.\nThe amount of vinegar in food is harmless, and in any case is less acidic than the normal stomach acid (hydrochloric acid) anyway.\nVinegar from our food gets nowhere near our bones.

Alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) are found in milk, lemon juice, vinegar, blackberries, grapes, oranges, tomatoes, and apple juice exfoliate the skin by dissolving the glue that holds dead skin cells together. \n\nThey cleanse the top layer of skin, allowing the body's natural emollient oils to reach the surface cells and help moisturize and relieve dryness. They help cleanse oily skin and remove blackheads. \n\nAHA chemical peels of between 20 and 70 percent acidity are available from some doctors, but they are so strong they can leave scars, and the FDA believes that these strong peels could expose the skin to an increased risk of sunburn. \n\nThe ingredients such as organic apple cider vinegar, is an all-natural AHA that you can use at home (avoid the eyes), has seven percent acidity, and is a safe and sure way to get the benefit of fruit acids without danger to the skin (although even at this low level, you should be aware of the increased risk of sunburn). \n\nThe benefits of homemade fruit acids become evident as soon as you start using them; your skin starts feeling soft and smooth. \n\nTo my skin's great benefit I squeeze a lemon once a week and keep its juice in the refrigerator. In the morning, I dab some of the juice on my fingers and pat it onto my face, leave it on for ten minutes or so and then rinse.

Another effective means is to use natural apple cider vinegar . Equal parts of natural apple cider vinegar and water should be placed in a small pan on the stove, allowing it to boil slowly. When the fumes begin to rise from the pan, lean your head over it until the fumes are comfortably strong. Inhale for approximately 50 to 80 breaths. This generally alleviates the headache considerably, if not entirely.\n\nMoisten your fingertips with Pure Almond Carrier Oil then add two drops of Lavender Essential Oil. In a circular motion, gently massage your temples, the hollows at the sides of your eyes, behind your ears, and over your neck.
