Apple cider vinegar has antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. In fact, many people take it as a health tonic each day. Evidence suggests that it can possibly offer health benefits such as aiding weight loss, reducing cholesterol and lowering blood sugar levels. Unfiltered apple cider vinegar has a cloud of yeast and good bacteria called ‘the mother’.  The mother adds flavor and is the source of the natural probiotics, so select an unfiltered variety for the most health benefits.
