Many benefits: Apple cider vinegar is touted as a cure for many maladies. However, research is limited. It does lower elevated blood sugar (a great benefit) & may lower cholesterol & reduce cancer risk. It may enhance mineral absorption & chelate lead & other heavy metals & support detoxification in general. It is a home remedy for many things- see http://www.Earthclinic.Com/remedies/acvinegar.Html & comment:.

An article by Dr. Mercola summarizing research on apple cider vinegar: http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2009/06/02/Apple-Cider-Vinegar-Hype.aspx
While many claims for the benefits of apple cider vinegar have not yet been proven, lack of research does not mean that these claims are false. Relatively little research is done on inexpensive medicinal substances that can't be patented.
