Summary

Recommended Apple Cider Vinegar: https://www.fairchildsvinegar.com/

Most people are familiar with the more popular benefits of apple cider vinegar, including the following:

•Supports digestion

•Decreases bloating

•Improves indigestion and acid reflux

•Supports healthy blood sugar levels

•Helps make insulin more sensitive

•Decreases a fatty liver

•Decreases inflammation

Both good bacteria and bad bacteria can go into a dormant state. Microbes in a dormant state are protected from many environmental stresses and chemicals, especially antibiotics. Dormant microbes can survive for decades or even thousands of years!

A change in environment, like a change in pH, can wake good bacteria or cause them to go dormant. Most good bacteria thrive in an acidic environment. Apple cider vinegar acidifies the environment for good microbes. Things like kombucha, pickle juice, sauerkraut, and kimchi have similar effects.

Certain microbes create butyrate, which helps with insulin resistance. These microbes thrive in an acidic environment.

We have a synergistic relationship with the microbes in our gut. We provide a home, and they provide immune protection, help with digestion, vitamin production, and more. By making their environment more acidic, you help activate them.

H. pylori releases ammonia, which alkalizes the stomach acid. This allows it to do its damage, causing ulcers in the stomach and small intestine. C. diff, E. coli, and salmonella go into a state of dormancy when the pH drops below 6.

When your immune system is suppressed, bad bacteria can come out of dormancy. Antibiotics, stress, Prednisone, and vitamin D deficiency can all suppress the immune system and activate pathogenic microbes.

Adequate vitamin D in amounts of at least 10,000 IU daily may help keep pathogenic microbes in remission. Try drinking 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water every evening with a straw to support your beneficial microbes. Fairchild’s Apple Cider Vinegar is an excellent option.

0:00.0	There's a very important benefit of alpacidid vinegar that I've never even talked about in any of my videos in alpacetidic vinegar, and I probably have hundreds of them.
0:08.3	And I think most people know that alpacet of vinegar is good for digestion. It helps with bloating and digestion, acid reflux.
0:15.8	Alpacet of vinegar also is good for your blood sugar. It helps make insulin more sensitive. We have less of a fatty
0:22.5	liver and less inflammation. I think a lot of people know about those things, and I've talked
0:27.0	about those benefits extensively until very recently, is another huge, major benefit of alpacide
0:34.4	vinegar. And to explain the benefit, I just need to explain something about
0:37.7	good bacteria and bad bacteria. Both groups of microbes can go into a dormant state. They can go to
0:46.4	sleep. I want to show you something in this book right here, which is kind of like a mini
0:49.9	summarization of a textbook on microbes. I want to read something to you. This is mind-blowing.
0:56.5	Certain bacteria were able to switch from an active growing phase to dormancy. This is a survival
1:03.4	mechanism triggered mainly by starvation signals. Of course, if you're going to starve them off,
1:08.1	they're going to die, right? The last resort response to starvation that a cell undergoes once all other stress coping mechanisms have failed. The purpose
1:18.4	is to generate a metabolic inactive cell that will maintain the genetic information under various
1:26.2	environmental stresses, including ultraviolet radiation and
1:30.9	certain enzymes and certain chemicals. When that microbe in its dormant state, it's protected,
1:38.1	especially against antibiotics. Thanks to its architecture, a dormant microbe can survive decades to thousands of years.
1:47.7	What? The things that revive a good bacteria versus a bad bacteria or a bad pathogen are not the same.
1:57.9	What will wake up the good bacteria that are sleeping?
2:00.8	There's several things,
2:01.6	but the thing that I want to talk about is the change of environment. Just by changing the pH,
2:08.3	you can either wake up a good bacteria or put them to sleep. Most of the good bacteria thrive
2:15.4	in an acid environment. And this acid protects them because a lot of
