Vinegar as an Eco-Friendly Solution

"Vinegar" is a common material found in almost every household. It is
a healthy medicinal material on your dining table--an eco solution
for everyone.

Perhaps it is useless to let you know the history of vinegar, but it
may be of interest to some.

According to some historical books, vinegar has been used for over
10,000 years. And no special process is needed to make simple
vinegar. Any liquid that has sugar in it automatically turns to
vinegar when exposed to air.

Some vinegar manufacturers claim that they developed new methods or
something, but there are no significant changes in it. For seasoning
and to preserve foods are the major uses of it.

Do you know where the name vinegar came from? According to my
dictionary, in France, a cask of wine got a crack in it and became
exposed to air. And they uttered "vyn egre", which literally
means "sour wine".

Vinegar is made when aerobic bacteria come in contact with the
alcohol in liquid while exposed to oxygen. This will turn the alcohol
into "acetic acid". This is the acid that you can find in all
vinegars.

Vinegar is a natural food and contains no harmful chemicals or
preservatives as vinegar is a preservative itself.

Vinegar has many beneficial uses, either as a medicinal, or for
cleaning and cooking. It cleans, sanitizes, and deodorizes better
than anything you can find in the market. It can drive away ants,
unwanted insects, including weeds. Vinegar can marinate meat and kill
unwanted bacteria.

Here are some ailments that people use vinegar to help heal:

***Relieve mild arthritis pain, cure a stomachache, dissolving warts,
relieving itching from mosquito or bug bites, soothing sunburn pains,
relieving a sore throat, jellyfish stings.***

Vinegar is very effective for hypertension or high blood pressure. In
fact, I am taking vinegar every day for nearly 20 years now. High
blood pressure caused by overthinking, stress, overwork, and
unbalanced diet, are seldom due to viral infections. Daily intake of
more than 5 ml of vinegar (1 teaspoon) will maintain normal blood
pressure within three months. If you stop taking vinegar, your blood
pressure may rise again. After three months, if you want to reduce or
stop taking vinegar, you may change to pure honey at least 10 ml (2
teaspoons) daily for lifetime.

## QUICK VINEGAR HOME REMEDIES

For upset stomach – Drink two teaspoons of apple cider vinegar in one
cup water.

As a Cough Suppressant – Mix with equal parts of honey.

For Dissolving warts – Mix one part of apple cider vinegar to one
part glycerin into a lotion and apply daily to warts until they
dissolve.

For cuts and scrapes, use vinegar as an antiseptic.

Get rid of foot odor by washing your feet well with vinegar.

Clean a hairbrush by soaking in a vinegar solution.

## OTHER VINEGAR TIPS

After washing your face with soap, rinse your face with 2 liters of
water mixed with a tablespoon of vinegar. This way, you don't need to
use any other cosmetics. Your face will be as beautiful as Cleopatra.

Vinegar is a very versatile sanitizer and cleansing agent. Vinegar is
an acid with a low pH, so many germs, molds, and fungus are killed
with it. Vinegar is good for sanitizing kitchen and kitchen
appliances, and bathroom and bathroom fixtures including toothbrushes.

Even automobile can be cleaned. Take note that since vinegar is acid,
some metal objects might rust. You may need rust prevention for such
items.

These are only a few; there are hundreds of applications used by many
even in the health field.
