    Do any of you use this? If so, do you drink it in water or mix it into something else? Do you see any health benefits from it?

    I take 1 spoonful everyday (except today, I'm out). It has lactobacilus acidophilus which helps in digestion as well as the naughty bits balance out the good bacteria.

    Just straight? I read that because of the acid content it's best to take with water to avoid enamel erosion. I also drink it with a straw to avoid contact with my teeth. I'm doing it mainly because I have such allergy and sinus issues and it is said to help with that. Plus all the other mentioned benefits. Even good for the complexion it says. I'm thinking "ACV...where have you been all my life!?" haha. I'm adjusting to the taste
    PS. Try finding a good organic brand to order from Amazon. Straight to your doorstep (look for free shipping) and then you never run out!

    Yeah, I didn't think about that...coming from someone who does a lot of online shopping! Hah!

    I take it as it is...even with other vinegars - I just love the sour taste (weird?). I do have sinus/allergy issues but I didn't think about what you've said. I use locally produced honey for my allergies (again, one teaspoonful straight once symptoms appear).

    I have indoor and outdoor allergies, year round. I just started allergy shots but of course they will take a good year before they start improving my symptoms. I've read the honey thing but have also read that it really only works for people with things like pollen allergies. I'm mildly allergic to grass pollen, but highly to mold and dogs (and guess who I sleep with everynight? An 80 lb furry girl...lol) and have been skeptical that local honey would help those allergies. Besides, I can't find any locally grown honey. One of the things I read about ACV is that a lot of people use it for allergy treatment...so I guess we'll see! I hear it's also a good fat fighter.

    Have you tried this: 1 tsp of honey + 1 tsp of Apple Cider Vinegar + 8 oz. water.

    Are those of you using it, using the Unpastuerized Organic ACV with "mother" ? If not, you're cheating yourself the health benefits.

    The taste is something that I believe I will acquire. First couple drinks I don't enjoy, but then after a few sips I get used to it. I try to look at it similar to lemon water.

    Tell me more about "mother". I do drink the unpasteurized ACV but what's "mother"?
