How can you tell if it is Pasturized or Distilled or not? I bought a 1/2 gallon of "Kroger" brand, it only says that it is 5%. Nothing more. Thanks

A good brand of ACV is Braggs. Most other brands are distilled vinegar which takes the "Mother" out of the vinegar. Mother is the cloudy stuff which usually settles at the bottom of the container. I get at health food section of the grocery or a health food market. I drink it too in the morning myself as a tea (1T/with honey). High in potassium. Also good for the skin as a rise diluted with water for the horse after a bath.

That is a very interesting article.....thanks for sharing.

We feed apple cider vinegar every day! My friends horse had colic surgery about 4 years ago, they removed a stone about the size of a grapefruit. Part of the Vet's instructions was to give 1 cup of apple cider vinegar in his supplements every day because of the acidity to prevent buildup. There's 1% and 2% strengths.. we use the 2%. She noticed the decline in flies that first summer, as not only do they "sweat" it out on their coat, but it's in the manure as well. Cheap, natural fly control! So I started feeding it too.. and for $3 a gallon you can't beat the price!

VERY interesting Roy,, thanks. With the soaring costs of everything these days, vinegar is very inexpensive and readily available in gallon jugs for easy use. And no side effects either..lolol Cindy
