Well, they say timing is everything. My wife suffers from foramenal stenosis. Each of your vertebrae has a hole on each side for nerves and blood vessels to pass through from your vertebrae to your body. This hole in the vertebrae is called a foramen. My wife has several of these that are filling with arthritis and applying much pressure to the nerves. She uses lidoderm (pain killer) patches over the area to control the pain. Well to make a long story longer. As we left first service today one of the drs who goes to the second service stopped us and said he was thinking about my wifes condition and had a recommendation. He said to use a 50/50 blend of Braggs (sp) apple cider vinegar and water on the area on her back where the nerves are pinched. It may take a couple months to make a difference but will reduce the arthritis and the pain greatly. He recommends it to many of his patients as a way to reduce there use of pain meds for arthritis. I asked him if he has ever heard of using it on fibro and he said that the ACV worked better on the fibro than it did the arthritis.
I thought that was very interesting.

I just found these two articles on using ACV to reduce cholesterol and triglyceride levels. I don't have a cholesterol issue but my triglyceride are around 900 and are not suppose to be over 200!! Sooooo guess who will be trying the ACV? I let you know how it works.

ACV lowers cholesterol and triglycerides.

FN... I hope that the ACV will reduce cholesterol, as I stopped taking Simvastatin some time ago. I had taken it for about 4 yrs and it gave me terrible leg cramps at night - woke me up often and had to jump out of bed! When I saw the Dr. last, I told him I wouldn't take statins any more and he didn't say anything so I'm sure he's going to wait til my next blood results! I gave blood last week and I will be getting a postcard with my cholesterol reading so it should be interesting!
fishinghat, I am amazed as well that ACV can be applied topically~
Interesting stuff!
