An Analysis Of Does Apple Cider Vinegar Actually Do Anything? By Sara Chodosh

Sara Chodosh, in “ Does apple cider vinegar actually do anything?,” Explains how common internet myths mostly are not true. “Apple cider vinegar won’t magically make your problems go away, no matter how much you believe in it.”, Claims Sara Chodosh. She backs up this claim with individual paragraphs debunking many of the myths surrounding this substance. In her first paragraph she tells us how this liquid does not impact weight loss/heart disease. “But human studies have shown such small weight-loss benefits as to be considered insignificant.”, In this quote she admits that there are weight loss results when the liquid is used, however, she concludes that they are too insignificant to be measured accurately. In the next passage she combats the myths against the liquid and cancer.

She states, “Just...no.”. Following this up she points out that there are no studies that directly prove that apple cider vinegar cure cancer in the body. She highly emphasises this with advice to go see a doctor if you are diagnosed, not to drink apple cider vinegar.

Another common myth is teeth whitening. “Acid, whether it be in lemons or soda or apple cider vinegar, destroys your protective layer of enamel permanently.”, Chodosh reminds us that acid can be severely damaging to our oral health. She insists that do not ever try this, thus shooting down another myth. She continues to point out flaws in beliefs shooting down sore throats, warts and pimples. Chodosh saves the most important for last, rejecting how in any way, that apple cider vinegar could cleanse a vagina in any way. Chodosh comments, “DO NOT PUT VINEGAR IN OR ANYWHERE NEAR YOUR VAGINA OR VULVA.”, she backs this up with how the acid will affect the ph level and there could be serious consequences. With her rant coming to an end, she proposes the one thing that apple cider vinegar could possibly help with. Dandruff. She eagerly analyzes that the anti-microbial features present in the liquid could help get rid of some fungus and dead skin hanging around on the scalp. However, insisting that this is not a cure and that you should seek a dermatologist if the issue

progresses. Looking over the pros and cons of this substance it’s clear that there is not much hope for the possibly remedies that it possesses. Even more it’s a lesson to us. That even though there may only be the word of mouth to go buy when looking for possible treatments to simple issues. The solution may, in fact, be that we should just see a doctor all along. Instead of trying to mix up a “wonderdrug” and possibly ruining your teeth for life.
