Accepted Answer

: You are correct to be concerned, apple cider is highly acidic and even drinking through a straw can still predispose you to an acidic episode. First of all rinse with plain water after drinking. You might find this link useful: https://drneilmcleod.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Acid-Erosion.pdf

Question 2

can apple cider vinegar affect my tooth patch? i'm drinking the bragg's apple cider vinegar.

Accepted Answer

Risks: Some people use a couple of teaspoons in other liquids such as juices as a reported way to control weight and improve their mood. Even if this were the case, which I personally question, with continued use, you run the risk of having the acids wear away your tooth enamel. It's a risk I personally would not take. Is it one that you want to?  There are better tried and true methods.

Question 3

i had tooth extracted yesterday w/bone graft. is it ok to resume my morning drink of apple cider vinegar, honey and cinnamon?

Accepted Answer

If the oral surgeon: did not restrict your diet then it should be perfectly fine.

Question 4

why did drinking apple cider vinegar hurt my stomach and a banana de the pain stop?

Accepted Answer

Look into it: Apple cider can be very acidic and irritating to a sensitive stomach. Generally it should be tolerated but if you have an ulcer or other inflammatory process of the upper GI tract, the cider could be causing the lesion to be symptomatic. Discuss this with your internist.

Question 5

hi will drinking apple cider vinegar affect my baby when she breast feeds?

Accepted Answer

No problem: Your bodily homeostasis activity, which normalizes internal fluids, should handle this easily and your breast milk will not be affected.

Question 6

will drinking apple cider vinegar mixed with honey and green tea every day work as a detox in losing weight?

Accepted Answer

: The main factor in weight reduction resides between your ears. If you believe in this fad protocol it may work for you. The most successful long term weight reduction comes when you identify when/why and how much you eat and make changes. Developing dietary habits that support a leaner body makes change more sustainable.

Question 7

will drinking apple cider vinegar with pure honey every night make you lose weight?

Accepted Answer

No.: The secret to weight loss is simple.  Diet and exercise.  Moderate your calorie intake with a sensible balanced diet and burn more calories than you take in.  If you are very overweight or have medical problems, discuss starting an exercise routine with your physician before starting.  Good luck.

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Bad bread: It may but it's doubtful that moldy bread will do much to you anyway
