I drink a glass of water with a teaspoon of ACV most days, but probably not every single day, like some mornings I will drink kefir instead. I have a really good batch of ACV with the mother I've kept going & it is easy. I don't always have kifer, but I always have ACV.I totally agree with you. as for pausing ACV my lucky guess is to avoid addiction. let your body fight without a constant help.
As much water I drink & the other stuff I eat in the course of each day, I don't feel this is excessive, for me anyway. I love a glass of sauerkraut juice, too. I love pomegranate & beet juices, it's all delicious to me. Some things agree with us better than others, we're all different.
Ever since they nearly killed me with chemo, my body, blood & immune system have been so dangerously out of whack, so I need to be aware of how I feel & how to get proper balance back. I tried the darn pills they suggested & had some nasty side effects. My entire digestive system, blood level readings & pH work much better with natural remedies. My energy levels & aches & pains, are better as well. I do rotate what I consume, but if I miss ALL of these, several days in a row, the feeling is a steady decline leading to severely run down & ill. The decline is a slow, clogged up system, fog brain, dry skin, fibromyalgia flare ups, constipation, nausea, upset stomach, sinus head pain & mucus issues & overall blah. I'm not saying it's for everyone, but it works for me, along with natural herbal & plant derived supplements. My bloodwork was so bad & damaged bone marrow, they said I had CLL & wanted to put me on more chemo...yeah, that would've finished me off for sure. I discovered the benefits of paw paw, papaya leaf...the oncologists & hematologists are still scratching their heads.
I'm not claiming that all this stuff would work for everyone, but all I know is, when I keep up with taking most of the natural remedies I've discovered & tried, they actually work. And when I stopped them temporarily, just to see, then resumed them, it was reflected in actual bloodwork results & pH saliva tests.
It has been said that everything we need for optimum health is already growing & thriving right here on this amazing planet. I believe it.
