I bought a bottle of Braggs after reading this thread. I've been doing a shot glass full after lunch and dinner the past few days. I gotta tell you I've been a walking hard-on lately. Pooped myself silly the first day too. Feel pretty good.

Man I was eating lunch and took a drink when I read that almost spit it across the table

Shots of it eh? That might be the best method to get it down, cuz 8 oz's of stingy water don't appeal to me

Post: #29

Hold your nose and throw it back. Chase it with cold water. Don't taste a thing.

Just got a bottle of Bragg's tonight (finally)

Going to be taking it morning and night, and yeah 8oz of vinegared water goes down like a kick in the nuts, but I think I'd prefer that to shooting it. My stomach wasn't to thrilled with it for the first few minutes, but feeling fine now.

How quickly can I expect to notice anything?>

You can't just mix it in with another drink?

Post: #32

I take mine with one of those crystal light packages... probably way to much acid, but tastes much better

Great thread guys. So many great natural products out their that kill there chemical cousins. I've been using the cheap AVC on my face and hair for a while. I like to use it at night only because it takes the long time for the smell to vaporize when I use it as a toner in the AM. This smell problem could be caused by quality of the AVC used so I'll def look into upgrading to a "mother" type.

@RAH who uses Baking Soda and Peroxide to brush his teeth elaborate on this? I accidentally mixed the two after I whitened my teeth with a peroxide solution and brushed up with BSoda after. It stained white shit on my gums, the firs time I freaked because I had a date the next day and rub the shit out my gums. Second time it happened not as bad and went away eventually. Do you find you have this same issue?

Its great to ween off these chemicals. Save so much money and get way better results.

I felt a rush like 30 minutes after doing a shot. You might feel your intestines cramp up a little after that. Almost feels like a sugar rush or adrenaline rush. My hands were shaking a little bit. Wait it out a few minutes and it'll ease up.

I guess it's like extra stomach acid. Just helps to break down any food in your system faster and makes it easier to absorb. Vinegar helps to get all that crudded up stuff off your intestine walls and let's your body pass it out.

I've only been using it like 4 days now and I can't really say anything bad about it. I seem to feel better like everyone says.

So is the best thing to do take a straight shot of it in the AM? Should you take one at night?

Dude it's a stroooooong bitter taste. Smell it first. If you think you can handle a raw vinegar bomb shot in the AM then go for it. LOL

Try half a shot glass first and keep a glass of ice cold water ready to chase it. Took me a couple times before I could choke down a full shot.

Post: #37

I wouldn't take a shot of it. I tried that a few times and seriously messed up my throat and stomach from the acid concentration. Diluting it in some water seems to be much better and my throat/stomach issues have gone away

Houston here are the steps for ACV.

1) Shake the bottle so that you get that mother moving. The mother is that residue at the bottom of the bottle. You want this in your system, it indicates that you have good ACV and not bullshyt.

2) Start off with ONLY two tablespoons only of Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar mixed in a cup or glass of drinking water.

3) Drink the solution.

Do this for at least a week and see if you feel energy. It took about four - five days to feeeeel the RUUUUSH.

Monitor.

I decided to get some today, they didn't have any of the cloudy stuff with sediment in it just clear apple cider vinegar or more expensive stuff that was 50% honey and 50% apple cider vinegar that specifically mentioned to take a tablespoon daily for health benefits. I bought the cheap 100% cider vinegar stuff. I really underestimated how bad this stuff would taste. I had a tablespoon of it directly into my mouth this evening and almost vomitted, mixed the next tablespoon with some OJ and it was palatable but not pleasent. Won't be able to drink this stuff in the morning and will struggle even at night.

How long until you guys noticed this was having an effect? Seems the effects are so varied from person to person too.

You are wasting your time with the cheap stuff. The Braggs only cost 5 dollars (even here in Canada).

And I told you guys to mix it with water but you insist on chugging it raw.. it's like preaching to stone gargoyles, y'all just don't listen lol!

Post: #41

Alright so been on the ACV for a day now, noticed that my gut was a bit... off, not bad, just off, after taking it (mixed with water)

I did feel a little woosh of energy after taking it but the big thing I noticed was the crick in my back that I woke up with Sunday morning was GONE entirely. All Sunday and Monday my back was in knots from sleeping wrong, I plowed through, went to the gym which added muscle soreness on top, my back was hell on toast, took a shot of ACV for the first time before bed that night, woke up this morning (tuesday) ZERO pain.

Started back on my low carb system again, trying to cut weight, I've read this stuff is good for weightloss, so I'll be keeping an eye on how the weight drop goes compared to how it has in the past.

I read this threat and went and got a gallon of Braggs. Two days in my energy is way higher all day - I was on fire today. And I'm shitting a ton.

I didn't read how much to take so I basically drank two shots worth yesterday and today and it fucked my stomach up for an hour, but went away. I think I did to much too early.

Key piece of advice - start with a small dose and mix with water!!!

They didn't have Braggs in the health shop here, not sure we can even get that in Scotland. I'll have a look on Amazon later and order a bottle if they sell it.

Sorry, mate, I didn't even realise that your name actually meant that you lived in Scotland. Maybe you can get something sent up from London or will that be more expensive and take longer?

I'd be surprised if Bragg's is the only brand, find a hippy dippy health food shop and ask around.

I can get it on Amazon for about £7 so I'll order it this weekend. Day of 3 of taking 2 tablespoon fulls of the stuff I have at the moment every evening, not getting any nicer and no noticeable effects. It doesn't contain the 'mother' which appears to be the stuff which has all the benefits so not sure if I'm wasting my time.

Post: #47

I have taken Bragg's for three days now and while I hadn't noticed anything yet, I can say that tonight, after my 8-hour shift, I have arrived at home and have an unusual amount of energy. Work usually drains me, then I come home, clean up, and pass out, but tonight, I feel wide awake. Two tablespoons in about ten ounces of apple juice is my preferred method. Can't even taste it.

I do exercise regularly, but this is the only new substance introduced into my system recently.

Without any negative side effects so far, I shall keep on with this.

Post: #48

Putting it in apple juice makes sense. I'm going to start doing that.

Post: #49

My bottle of Bragg's arrived yesterday, so I will probably start today. I don't want to put it in apple juice because I don't want the extra sugar, so I'll stick with water.

Post: #50

I gotta tell you guys. I finished up my small bottle of Braggs so I went to my local Organica Natural Foods store and picked up a bigger $7 bottle. The place was jam packed with beautiful women. All the girls that work there were super friendly and helpful. I think this is going to be my next gaming venue. Keep it in mind guys.

Excuse me do you know anything about Apple Cider Vinegar? Could you help me please? I'm so confused. Lol

Ramble on!!
