Apple cider vinegar has its benefits. Evidence suggests it’s high in healthy substances, kills harmful bacterias (which is why we use it as a cleaning product), helps manage diabetes and, when used topically, can even improve skin health. But there’s one attribute of apple cider vinegar we all hate: the taste.
While it’s composed mostly of apple juice, the fermentation process that gives way to ACV turns the juice’s natural sugars into alcohol, which is why just a spoonful of the stuff tastes extremely acidic, smells pungent and is generally unpleasant. And sure, those who consume it on the reg will tell you these traits are something you’ll get used to over time, but there’s really no need to punish yourself in such a way.
Instead, consider ACV supplement capsules from Bragg, the brand whose label you probably recognize from the super market.
The key ingredients in each capsule remain as fundamental as ACV itself. There’s ACV powder and acetic acid, both ingredients found in ACV, but Bragg also adds vitamin D and zinc to boost immunity. Three capsules, or the equivalent of one spoonful of ACV, contain 30 ACV gummies’ worth of acetic acid, zero sugar and zero calories. And with 90 capsules in a jar, you’ve got a month’s supply of ACV at the ready.
For those of us already sold on the benefits of ACV, capsules are an easier, more appealing method of daily supplementation. And for those yet to embrace this strange, fermented juice, this is about as simple as it gets. There’s nothing left to do but give ACV capsules a try, at least while you’re still cementing those 2022 resolutions.
