Will Adding Apple Juice to Apple Cider Vinegar Reduce Its Effectiveness?

Posted by Kathryn (NSW, Australia) on 12/14/2006

Hi Ted, I have a question regarding some problems I have been having for the past few months. In August I noticed that I was having a lot of postnasal drip in the back of my throat and my partner has had chest pains and a dry cough since being prescribed blood pressure pills (which he's now been off for 6 weeks). Doctors have failed to diagnose the problem, but it's believed it is GERD and, reading this website, his symptoms do seem to be similar to many readers. ACV does seem to help his condition, but he absolutely hates the taste. I've tried adding it to water, adding a bit of honey, etc, but his preference is to take it with apple juice (1 part vinegar to 3 parts apple juice). Is the apple juice (which is probably pasteurized) likely to reduce the ACVs effectiveness? Thanks

Dear Kathryn: Don't forget to add some baking soda to the apple juice. Then he needs to drink 1/4 teaspoon of sea salt in one liter of water. The sea salt will have an alkalizing effect and stop the GERD. It does that by raising the body's oxygen killing the organism and also reducing the fermentation that goes along with the GERD. Consider adding generously, Oregano, thyme, rosemary to the food. The fermentation causing the GERD will stop. If it works consider taking this every 1 hour until GERD stops, which should take a couple of days.
