Does apple cider vinegar live up to its cure-all reputation?

It may help to lower blood sugar and cholesterol, but there’s little evidence that it is a cure for acid reflux or eczema, says Dr Catherine Conlon

Apple cider vinegar has long been used in naturopathy to treat things such as diabetes and high cholesterol.

As far back as 3,300 BC, apple cider vinegar was used to treat infections or insect bites.

Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, used it to clean wounds 2,000 years ago.
