In one way or another we’ve all heard of the latest trend of drinking apple cider vinegar for amazing health benefits. When I first saw it at the store, I thought why on earth would I drink this liquid that’s not only separated but smells awful. I decided to research the benefits of drinking apple cider vinegar and thought, maybe this could be worth it. I went to the store and bought a bottle of Bragg’s Apple Cider Vinegar and gave it a shot. At first, I’m not gonna lie… That sh*t was terrible.

Eventually though, I got used to it super quick and fell in love with all of the benefits I noticed happening to my body. Here’s five health benefits of drinking apple cider vinegar that you won’t be able to pass up:

Improves your skin health

Not only does apple cider vinegar improve your skin’s health internally, but it can also be used to treat acne and reduce previous scarring.

Keeps hair shiny

Rinsing your hair every once in awhile with apple cider vinegar can keep your hair strong and shiny .

Relieves cold symptoms

If you’re feeling a cold coming on or a sore throat, you can mix up your own at home remedy with some apple cider vinegar, warm water, lemon and honey, cold be gone!

Increase weight loss 

Being one of the newest trends right now, adding 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar a day to your diet can be proven to increase weight loss. Consuming this will make you feel more full, which will result in less calorie intake for the day and BANG weight loss!
