  • 1 tablespoon organic apple cider vinegar with the mother

  • 12 oz filtered water room temperature

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the base: Fill a 16oz glass with 12oz of room temperature filtered water.
  • Add vinegar first: Pour in 1 tablespoon of organic apple cider vinegar to maintain therapeutic concentration.
  • Add fresh lemon juice: Squeeze 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice directly into the glass (never use bottled).
  • Incorporate ginger: Add 1 teaspoon of freshly grated ginger or 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger powder.
  • Sweeten if needed: Stir in 1 teaspoon raw honey only if needed for palatability.

Notes

Important Safety Information:
  • Start with half the recipe for the first week to assess tolerance
  • Not recommended for pregnant/nursing women, children under 16, or people with active stomach ulcers
  • May enhance blood-thinning medications - consult your healthcare provider
  • Can cause tooth enamel erosion if consumed undiluted - always use with water
  • Take 1-2 days off per week to prevent digestive adaptation
Preparation Tips:
  • Use only organic, unfiltered apple cider vinegar with "the mother"
  • Fresh lemon juice is essential - bottled juice lacks beneficial pectin

  • Can be made without honey once taste buds adapt (usually 3-5 days)
Timing for Best Results:
  • Consume 20-30 minutes before largest meal
  • Avoid drinking within 3 hours of bedtime
  • Most effective when taken consistently for 6-8 weeks
Storage:
  • Must be consumed fresh - do not store mixed drink
