Vinegar - How It Works

I found this to be an interesting and, imho, balanced article about vinegar. It helps to make some sense of the hype that we sometimes see regarding apple cider vinegar. It covers both misconceptions and known benefits of taking in vinegar.

For those that are skeptical, this is the summary:

"Obviously, much more research needs to be done to investigate all of vinegar's healing potential. But even with the evidence available, it's clear that vinegar holds some healing powers. It is not a too-good-to-be-true miracle cure, but it can be used in a variety of ways to enhance your efforts to fight serious, chronic diseases (and as noted in the box on pages 75 and 76, it may lend a healing hand against some common, minor discomforts).

In that sense, vinegar is like many of the other lifestyle adjustments, drugs, and therapies used in our battles against common, chronic, and often life-threatening diseases: It is just one of a variety of important steps that can help us defend ourselves. But unlike many of the other elements that go into treating or preventing disease, vinegar is one you'll certainly enjoy incorporating into your life. "

Enjoy? As long as you find a veggie dressing made with vinegar that you "enjoy" that is...
