Apple Cider

Apple cider vinegar (ACV) is made from crushed, fermented apples. You’ll often see ACV ‘with mother,’ which means it’s in its purest form and still contains healthy bacteria. 

The vinegar has a sharp, bitter taste and is regularly used for health purposes and in cooking. We provide organic, unpasteurised apple cider vinegar that is raw and unfiltered for its nutritional properties.

Health benefits of apple cider vinegar

ACV has long been praised in the wellness world for its health and beauty benefits. Check out just a few advantages of using ACV below:

Promotes silky hair

Apple cider vinegar is a fantastic and natural ingredient to remove impurities that accumulate on your hair strands. Impurities are usually hard water, chlorine and minerals that coat the hair strands, creating a film that makes hair look dry and dull. Dilute apple cider vinegar with distilled water and use it as a hair rinse to dissolve unwanted substances for squeaky clean hair.

May increase gut health

Apple cider vinegar contains a small amount of probiotics, which may feed your gut microbiome. This helps maximise nutrient absorption and balances your hormones, such as dopamine and serotonin (the happy hormones) and melatonin (your sleep hormone). 

Boosts scalp health

Minerals and hard water can build up on your scalp, blocking hair follicles, slowing hair growth and causing infections. Apple cider vinegar is mildly acidic, dissolving dead skin cells to clear the scalp and improving fungal infections like dandruff.

Stabilises blood sugar

Apple cider vinegar is rich in acetic acid, which may help stabilise blood sugar levels. It does this by slowing the speed of complex carbohydrates changing into glucose. The process reduces sudden spikes in glucose levels for sustainable energy and balanced moods.

Can heal infections

Apple cider vinegar contains anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties. This makes it a fantastic option for eliminating infections or as a natural kitchen cleaner.
