Question 9

how does vinegar clean your system of thc?

Accepted Answer

It doesn't: That's a sucker claim, actually a cruel prank to get up the hopes of someone who will go on to fail a THC test as they should. This isn't the place to debate the wisdom of the cannabis laws or the value of testing. Just don't trust "magic" vinegar to help you, and avoid cannabis if your future depends on testing negative.

Question 10

why is apple cidar vinegar so good for you?

Accepted Answer

It's not: It's simply promoted for everything. It has a few interesting properties, but people are willing to believe in it. It's smelly, it's made from wholesome apples, and people see faces in the clouds when an illness remits in someone using it and they write testimonials. You owe it to yourself to get with an evidence-based holist in your community if this stuff interests you.
