    ACV has many health benefits, but you shouldn't be taking swigs from the bottle. Mix it in water or tea, add some ginger and turmeric, some honey. Not good for your throat or stomach lining to be gulping it down straight.

    Since starting ACV I no longer have major heart burn or esophageal spasms. It also helps keep the uric acid down that causes gout flare ups. I've read many articles that state that the human body functions better when more acidic than base.

    Helps the good gut bacteria which in turn fosters many other good benefits. Especially helpful for those who may have had a gallbladder removed and can't get enough acid into the digestive process. Granted, that can be done in many different ways

    Read up Doc, plenty of info out there from numerous sources.

    How's Xena?

    Unfortunately she did not make it. Her lungs were compressed up against her spine and they could not find a cause after draining another 75 oz of fluid from her chest cavity. She went peacefully in a place she loved with her humans.

    She will be missed. Thanks for all the concern and kind thoughts.

    DAYMIT! Sorry to hear brother. Glad she’s chasing squirrels in heaven and that she went peacefully.

    Funny you say that! That is what she was watching in that photo. Squirrels. They were also around when she passed.

    A real tear jerker for sure.

    OMG @CH46E so sorry to hear! That is really sad, I'm feeling it too, the loss of a best friend, a companion, is devastating. All dogs love their caretakers unconditionally. Take care brother.

    Remember, all dogs go to heaven. Getting a bit choked up as I ponder this. Aw man, Good doggie!

    as seen on the internet*

    Now, if I were gonna have an airline, I would give it a wry name -- as the owners (or operators) of this Vickers Viscount apparently did. B)

    Note also the name of the aircraft itself (painted on its schnozz).

    It wouldn't be expected to be good for the esophagus, although we eat and drink plenty of acidic stuff all of the time.

    Good, balanced diet of healthy foodstuffs trumps the fads every time IMO (although I am not a nutritional biochemist, just the regular old kind).

    Forget the PH balanced water, you'd benefit more from water without the fluoride in it. I like Fiji water for that, I'm sure there is more I just haven't looked that hard.

    And yet all the rage right now is "alkaline water" I snicker a little when folks at work expunging the benefits of this new fad alkaline water lol.

    Not to be confused with mineral water .... I drink alkaline water everyday as mine comes out of the tap at a ph of 8.8 ... Pretty alkaline if you ask me.

    I cannot drink ACV straight from the bottle I've tried. It for me was far more irritating than the old 200proof Everclear. I cannot see that acidity being good for the esophagus, well since stomach acid erodes it so badly.

    I'm weird like that. I like the taste. I always chase it with water to keep the teeth and throat rinsed.
