I had no idea that apple cider vinegar was good to treat so many ailments!

Good luck with it! Eat lots of bananas and broccoli! :)

I thought vinegar HAD potassium in it?

Like here: Dr. D.C. Jarvis, MD who wrote “Folk Medicine, A Vermont Doctor’s Guide to Good Health” and “Arthritis and Folk Medicine”, is completely convinced that apple cider vinegar could make any living thing healthier. He believes, Potassium, which is found in just the right amounts in natural apple cider vinegar “is so essential to the life of every living thing and that with out it there would be no life. Potassium is the most important of all minerals that are necessary for good health.” Potassium’s main function is to promote cell, tissue and organism growth. It is necessary to replace dead cells and tissue. There is no better source of potassium than vinegar---particularly natural apple cider vinegar.

Maybe that's wrong?

Apparently it *has* potassium but taking it also *depletes* potassium. This could be because potassium is water soluble and taking the vinegar almost always results in an increase of water - because of all the water you have to take with it. Most people don't get enough water anyway, typically much less than the 16 oz 3x day that's recommended just for a full daily dose of the vinegar.

I also saw somewhere that it can cause mild anemia in large doses, same as eating a lot of raw cruciform veggies over an extended period.

I may try the honey & vinegar for arthritis. I know it works for colds and general ick. Are your feet warm? If not - warm them up.
