Apple cider vinegar (ACV) is a fermented product made from crushed apples, often used in cooking, natural remedies, and wellness routines. It may help with blood sugar control, weight management, and heart health, but scientific evidence is limited, so it should be used cautiously.

🍎 What Apple Cider Vinegar Is

Made from fermented apple juice: Yeast converts sugars into alcohol, then bacteria turn alcohol into acetic acid.
Acetic acid is the main active compound, giving ACV its sour taste and potential health effects.
Commonly sold as raw/unfiltered (with “the mother”) or filtered varieties.
