How Can Sipping Vinegar Water Improve Digestion?

Vinegar - A Digestion Helper

As we age, our bodies slow down in the production of hydrochloric acid, a necessary stomach acid that helps break down protein for absorption into the bloodstream. Sipping a weak solution of apple cider vinegar can help assist the natural breakdown of food in the stomach, thus helping the stomach to digest food more efficiently. A mixture of 2 tablespoons of vinegar and a touch of honey in an 8 ounce glass of water can be highly effective for better digestion. Avoid vinegar if you have stomach ulcers, as increased irritation may occur.
