When consumed, apple cider vinegar reduces the pain and stiffness of arthritis by dissolving the acid crystals that build up in the joints. Once it is processed, apple cider vinegar leaves behind an alkaline residue that helps balance the bodyâs pH.
Its acidic nature destroys the cell structure of bacteria, and it stops fungi from turning sugar into energy. Unlike strong chemicals, like hydrochloric acid, which get their strength by completely breaking apart in water, vinegar maintains a balance within water of about 1% separated acetic acid.
