Guest guest Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Truly, The only negative side affects I know of from Apple Cider Vinegar is that it can be hard on your teeth because it is acidic. Some people get around this problem by drinking the ACV with a staw to get it to the back of the throat bypassing the teeth. Some brush there teeth right after drinking it. Probably the best thing to do is add 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon baking soda to your glass of ACV before you drink it. This will neutralize the acid and the baking soda also has health benefits. My favorite way of taking ACV is mixing it with apple juice, then it tastes like apple cider. So for me, its apple juice, ACV, and baking soda. Put the ACV in the glass first, then the baking soda, wait till it stops fizzing, then add the apple juice to taste. For more info on ACV and other home remedy's go to www.earthclinic.com Geeze, I sound like a radio announcer!

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Holy Moly! How much did you take! LOL Your not supposed to drink the whole damn bottle! <grin> If I were you I would start out with 1 teaspoon and add some baking soda. Once your body is used to that you can go to a tablespoon. The max I would ever do at one sitting would be 2 tablespoons. Also remember that the natural ACV is much better for you, its cloudy looking and not clear like what you buy in the grocery store. With the natural ACV, remember to NOT put in the fridge, as that will kill the " mother " the stuff at the bottom of the bottle. > > > > > > This may sound stupid... > > > But are there any negative side effects associated with using > ACV? > > > > > > Thanks, > > > Trly > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Truly, Although ACV has many enzymes and minerals, diabetes has certain effects on the body in which taking ACV may not be a good idea for you. Part of diabetes is that it contributes to the condition hypokalemia. I know that too much ingestion of ACV is connected to hypokalemia, although rare. But given the predisposition of diabetes and then also ingesting the ACV, may not be in your best interest. You said you had increased heart rate? Something that happens with hypokalemia, is that the heart cells become excitable and can make you feel like your heart is racing or feel an increase in BP. Have you ever had issues with hypokalemia or said another way, potassium issues? frito From: trlyblest <trlyblest@...>bird mites Sent: Monday, December 1, 2008 10:05:38 PMSubject: Re: ACV - Negative Side Effects?

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Good glad to hear it!! Diabetes can result from not only the lack of insulin. Insulin has other functions besides blood sugar. And lack of insulin production can result from a number of disease processes too. Given you do have it, you aren't sure of your labwork, and your reaction to it, perhaps there is another avenue in which you could get the enzymes and minerals without all the acetic acid of ACV. At the very least, you could discuss this with your physician in charge of your condition or perhaps there is another form like capsules that won't flood your bloodstream as fast as drinking it in water. If you were trying it for candida, you could try CO and for pH you could take a pH buffer. There are also some really good digestive enzymes out there and also some very good liquid mineral supplements too. Although the ACV is much cheaper isn't it?

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Frito - I may be misunderstanding something, but hypokalemia is low blood potassium, and acv contains high levels of potassium. It seems that too much acv could create hyperkalemia, which is definitely a medical emergency, largely because it can cause heart arrhythmias. Does what you are saying have anything to do with Trly being diabetic?? I don't know anything about any possible interactions with blood sugar and potassium...

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Hi Bessie, No, I don't think you are misunderstanding the definition of hypokalemia. Yes ACV has potassium and all sorts of goodies. Both hypo and hyper kalemic conditions are capable of causing arrythmias from what I understand. I myself have great respect for potassium and try not to disturb the levels in my own body as yes, it can be lethal. I am personally aware of that lethality in someone I loved very much. Yes, what I am saying is that her diabetic condition could have some effect on her taking ACV even if it does have large quantities of potassium, in diabetic ketoacidosis, several mechanisms in which serum potassium and extra-cellular potassium shifts. What I do understand is that some of the properties of ACV and its subsequent actions in the body of a diabetic individual can be either used for beneficial uses or it may have ill-effects to to those shifts. Because of what Truly described happened to her, and she is unaware of her blood work, and this is something new, I am concerned there may be something additional in which I or anybody else cannot account for and whole heartedly suggest seeing and talking with her physician as they are way more familiar with the cascading events of her condition. By cascading, I mean that any hormone imbalance whether that be insulin or whatever has many effects on many organs and the processes that take place in the body. I am not saying that this is what is occuring with her, it could be interacting with her insulin requirements as well. I don't know that, but her physician can certainly be of good direction to her. Additonally, I don't believe I made the statement of an interaction taking place between the specific entities of ACV and potassium. These are such great points you bring up and yes, one would think if one was low in potassium, that ingesting a substance in which contains it, would be beneficial. In some diabetic individuals, that may be the case, but in others not. I would hate to have Truly keep doing something in which she reacted badly and have it hurt her. Especially considering she is unaware of her current labs. At the very least, her physician can say the concern was needless, she is as healthy as a horse, and to go ahead with ACV. I would prefer her to do that with her physicians blessings.

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Hi, Frito - As I said, I don't know anything about the diabetes and potassium. Trly certainly should have blood work done if altering her electrolyte/mineral balance in any event...probably not a bad idea for any of us. And yes, potassium can have deadly consequences on cardiac function if either too low or too high; lethal injections of potassium are used for the death penalty in many states.

Can't wait to hear what the doctor says your blood work. I had a TON of it done and both potassium & magnesium were low-normal, just on the line. I hope you make it a practice of getting a copy of all lab work done. I have all mine going back many years, long before all this. It is interesting to see " trends " , like with cholesterol.
