YEA] 08/18/2012: Sukhdev from Kanata, On, Canada: "I would say "ACV" is amazing. I was always in this thought that I ve "White Coat Syndrum" but it was not the reality so I was dignose with HBP(reading 160/100) in May. I want to try some natural remedies instead going on medication as I am taking medication for high cholesterol. I found this wonderful site of natrual remedies. I started taking ACV on Aug. 14 (this day I had Cardiac stress test and my BP was 165/110) within 4 days my BP is down to 133/88. Really I am surprised to see the results THanks to "Earthclinic"
How I take ACV? After reading almost every page on this topic, I choose take it like this:
3 tbls(0. 8 oz) of ACV and 1 tbls of Honey mix in
8-10 oz of warm water. I take it in the morning and bed time.
That s IT"
10/13/2012: Connie Sue from Duncan, Ok, Usa replies: "Gloria, I have had great success also---in only 3 days. I had been feeling very tired , weak and had a headache for several days. Actually, months! I usually take my blood pressure often because my mother and sister had high blood pressure controlled very poorly by medicine. I've been borderline for years. I finally got up the nerve to take it and was shocked to see it was 196/115. I never go to the doctor, but could see this was serious. It was on Thursday. I decided to try acv. I drank 1 tbls with the juice of a lime in about a half cup of water. I did this 2 times on Thursday, but pressure still stayed above 190/105. I took the vinegar once yeasterday morning , did not take my pressure but still felt bad. This morning I took a dose, and an hour later took my pressure. I noticed I felt better. Pressure is 145/90. I am so happy. I will take my pressure daily now and continue drinking the Apple Cider Vinegar daily. I hope to see these numbers continue to drop to normal. Thanks Earth Clinic!"
YEA] 01/05/2012: Newshed from Minneapolis, Mn: "Last Thursday I had my BP taken and it was 164/104 that was at 6AM I waited 10 minutes for a retake and it had went to 160/107. I donate plasma and have on and off for years and that's how I know this. There have been other times the last few months where it's 159/99 or 165/103 and so on. I do have neuropathy in my feet which can be very painful and I had taken 2 ibuprofen and 2 acetominophin at about 4AM as my feet were in a lot of pain. I like to donate plasma so I can have extra money for the week and I also know a couple people who rely on it and even if it's not mine my friends have nurses out to their homes and hook up to the pick line to do the medicine delivery. I couldn't donate that day and it was a bummer so I went to my car got on the Internet on my phone and found this site and that morning before work I went and got _____s ACV at the store thank goodness Byerly's opens at 6AM. I went home told my wife and started ASAP.
I personally after reading several pages and posts decided to take 3 tablespoons 2 times a day. I mix it with Apple Juice and I small spoonful of this thick and gooey honey my wife has. It's only been 4 days and I went to donate again at 6AM, (I like to be first then I'm done by 7:15) and get this my BP went to 149/89. Fluke? Who knows but even the lady I like to have screen me even said how low it is today and my iron was excellent she said, best she's seen. Now it hasn't helped my feet at all but I do feel my appetite has changed for the better as well. So thank all you kind people who helped me and I'm an ACV drinker now!"
[NAY] 01/17/2012: Chattyone from So Cal, Ca replies: "My blood pressure was 199/100 when someone suggested I take ACV mixed in a large amount of water, thru a straw 3xs per day, which I did. Within a month, every one of my crowns fell off. Never had the problem before or since : ( Now I take over the counter meds (not happy about it) now as I am afraid of what else might happen. Very expensive lesson."
11/08/2012: Naila from Los Angeles, California replies: "For those using ACV, please please remember that you must brush/rinse after EVERY time. Those who had teeth/crown issues, this was probably the main reason (unless there are other factors with their teeth. ) The benefits of ACV far outway this one "side effect".. but if care is taken, there should be NO side effect."
10/07/2011: Karenann from Houston, Tx, Usa: "I have only been taking ACV for a short time and my BP has already lowered. I dreaded having my BP taken in the Dr.s Office, because it was so high. Usually ran 150/98 or somewhere in that neighborhood.
I am on HBP meds and have been for years. Since taking two TBS in four OZ. of grape juice it is now 122/78. I found it taste really good in apple juice too. You can barely taste the ACV. I am using organic ACV. Thanks for this wonderful website.

YEA] 07/12/2011: Atane from Charlotte, Nc: "I began taking ACV for blood pressure 1 month ago. I was on 3 pills with a normal day of 150/80. just came from the md my blood pressue is down to 130/80 in one month 2 Tbs w 8 oz water 2 x daily. I have been taken off all medication except one. This product is absolutely remakable. I dont go a day with out it... Be blessed"
YEA] 03/17/2011: Margaret from Knoxville, Tn replies: "I have been taking one to two tablespoons of organic ACV with one to two teaspoons of good local honey with a couple of ounces of warm water first thing in the morning for over two years. I take it for a number of reasons. I did not have true blood pressure issues prior to starting - usually running about 110/70 sometimes up to 120/70. However, after about six months on the ACV, it is consistently 100/60.
I actually started on the ACV for rheumatoid arthritis pain because I am not interested in prescription drugs. The ACV with honey and water controls the RA pain. You will have to keep taking the ACV to keep your blood pressure down. If you stop, it will begin to creep back up. However, the ACV has so many wonderful effects in the body, I can't see any reason to stop. I would say, however, that everyones should be sure to "swish and swallow" with clean water following the ACV because it can be really hard on the tooth enamel otherwise."
YEA] 08/17/2006: Anita from Baguio City, Philippines: "Last year I experienced having high blood pressure almost everyday and I keep on taking medicines but still the BP is present so I tried the apple cider vinegar because I learned from my daughter about the effect and I surfed the internet and found that it is really amazing. For two weeks of drinking apple cider vinegar without honey or sugar because I like the taste, my BP is normal and my feeling is very good, and as if my stomach is cleaned from toxins. I will continue to drink apple cider vinegar to experience more the health effects and I am sharing it with my friends so that they will also try
[YEA] 08/14/2006: Sherri from Atlanta, GA: "A friend told me about ACV for the reduction of blood pressure... and IT REALLY WORKED! For two weeks I've had extremely high BP, after trying 2 400mg tablets yesterday, my BP dropped from 180/131 to 116/82! IT'S A MIRACLE!"
[YEA] 06/16/2006: Cecilia from Strongsville, OH: "I have had chronic lower back pain for years and after taking AVC twice daily for a month I have noticed a drastic difference. I was restricted in activities and now I can do just about everything. While at the doctor's I also found out that my blood pressure dropped from 124/80 to 116/68. In January, 2006 I was diagnosed with acid reflux, which resulted with pills every day. Since taking the AVC I haven't had to take any medication for the acid reflux. I believe it has also helped with my allergies. This really is a miracle cure."
[YEA] 06/08/2006: Mary from NSW Australia: "I just read your web page on how ACV lowers blood pressure so I gave it a try and in 10 minutes it dropped from 146 over 91 pulse 82 at 10.05pm down to 138 over 80 pulse 83 at 10.15pm

So discouraged b/c of high "situational" BP, dropped from trucking school/now, it has dropped from 169/110 to 159/98 in two days. I knew better b/c i never have it. Not only that, being an af-am female, they were quick to offer some medication, which i just as quickly rejected! Get well, stay well, everybody."
YEA] 05/16/2006: Edmund from Baltimore, MD: "My last physical was in March, my blood pressure was 139/90. After finding this website. I thought I would give ACV a try. I stopped taking my HBP meds about a month and a half ago and have strictly been on ACV and garlic. I take 2tbls of ACV with a little spring water and I take 2 caps of garlic, which I buy loose and cap myself. I went to the nurse's office this morning and had my blood pressure checked it was 124/77. I was amazed to say the least. I try to watch what I eat, but I know It was the ACV and garlic because I had already modified my eating habits when my blood pressure was higher. I send this website to everyone I can think of. I have been preaching the wonders of ACV!!!"
[YEA] 03/11/2006: Ingrid from Fort Walton Beach, FL: "Apple Cider Vinegar is a fast and reliable way of lowering high blood pressure. I had a reading of 166/102 about 30 minutes ago, now it's at 143/86 after 3 or 4 tablespoons of ACV with water. Try it, it works."
[YEA] 02/01/2006: Donna from Lancaster SC: "I came across this site looking for natural results in lowering my husband's blood pressure which was 166 over 90 and had 1/3 of his lung removed due to finding lung cancer in stage 1 after we had a vehicle accident. Since we both are American Indians, I wanted something natural so I got it and tried it on him, myself and our 24 year old daughter who has asthma. We started this past Sunday and the next day I didn't feel bloated like usual so I told all at work and they just looked at me so I printed this out. Tuesday morning I had energy like never before so with the paper and they saw me and read this site they all went to get the ACV and about 20 customers were going. My husband's blood pressure is as of 1/31/06 150 over 80 and he claims that he feels like "jumping rope" so with fresh vege and lean meats and very low sodium in his diet with this is working and since Sunday i have lost 5 lbs and my hair is no longer falling out (waist length). It's so nice to comb my long hair and it isn't falling out anymore or see my hair on everything.Thank you all so much. Donna -- Geyatahi Cherokee Indian NC"
YEA] 11/23/2005: Carlene from South Africa: "I have tried adding 1 tablespoon chased with water in the morning after breakfast and again in evening after meal to test if any difference in my high blood pressure. In less than one week, I noticed I was very dizzy and feeling rather weak. I took my blood pressure and it was 102/66... VERY LOW after years of 130s/90's WITH medication daily. I have stopped taking my blood pressure medication and checking my pressure 3 times daily to find it's consistently now 120's/70's. I am completely amazed. I'd been taking supplements (fish oil, garlic, E, flax) along with my medication for a long time and have kept that up. The only thing I can attribute this major change is the addition of apple cider vinegar!"

My Doc put me on Antenolol 50mg/day which brought it down to round about 145/90. In the last 2 months I have been taking ACV maintenance dose 3xday and my BP has come down 120/89, 115/80 and yesterday 112/60 great???
Question do I still keep taking ACV, Will my BP stabilise or should I stop before it gets dangerously low?
Since taking ACV I have felt like a new person very lively and active. I also lost 4Lbs in weight and some of my hearing has returned. I wear 2 hearing aids. Any helpful comments very welcome
[YEA] 06/08/2009: Sunsong from Mission, BC, Canada: "I started using the Earth Clinic recommended dose of ACV (with the mother) just 4 days ago. I started using it in hopes that it would help with my aches and pains, as well as with my weight. Well I'm not one to weigh myself on the scale, but i did feel a little more energetic and clearer in the mind after starting the ACV. What totally took me by surprise was when i measured my blood pressure in a drug store this morning whilst i was in town doing some shopping. It had dropped to 116/65, (and that is after walking with my heart pounding). It had consistently been 130/87 or so for the last year (it was a biochemically stressful year for me). I was going to go back on Niacin (vitamin B3) because it is so good for the cardiovascular system, but if the ACV works this good on blood pressure i am going to tell everyone i know.
I sat at the drugstore blood pressure machine shocked.......how could something work this FAST?? Then i came home and went right to the Earth Clinic website to read others stories on blood pressure and ACV. I didn't KNOW it also worked for blood pressure!!!! Two thumbs up for ACV.....WOW"
[YEA] 05/29/2009: Patrick from Nassau, Bahamas: "Well I went to the doctor for the first time in years, two days ago. They told me that my blood pressure was 140/76. I went because for the past few days I was feeling extremely tired and I got dizzy when I would stand to long or do any work. I knew something was wrong. When she told me, I kinda expected it.
I was always and active person but as of late since I got this new job it's like I'm stuck behind the desk constantly and then when I get home I have my own work to do. I am a photographer and graphic artist. And with the slow in the economy, every penny counts. My father used to have HBP, Gout and he had 2 or 3 heart attacks in his lifetime.
I took it hard when I was told I was borderline high. I wasn't prescribed anything but exercise and ease up off the fatty foods, sodas, caffeine,...... all the bad stuff. As soon as I got to my computer I started googling and came up with earthclinic.
Thanks to you guys, I went out and got the ___ [apple cider vinegar] and took 2 tbs raw before i went to bed.
Got up the next morning and felt like a new man. And now I have gotten back into my routine exercise. I haven't had no fast foods or junk for the past few days, just fruits vegetables and lean meats. No coffee tea or sodas. Just water and certain juices.
It's amazing how we wait until things happen before we take action. But YEA the ___with Mother works. After the first dose I started using the 2tsp ACV with 8oz Water and a squeeze of lemon. And it tastes good too.
"[YEA] 05/16/2009: Princess Dolly Girl from Great Falls, Montana: "Like many of you have been amazed to find how apple cider vinegar aids in lowering blood pressure, I too am happily amazed. I have had HBP for 10 years(I am 40) Almost 3 months ago I started a new BP medicine and my BP continues to get higher. I started taking tyrosine to help with mood swings and anxiety. It is working GREAT but it has started raising my BP even more. So today I went searching for something natural and ended up here. Last week my BP was 168/113. Today after I took 2 doses of 2 tablespoons of ACV in 8 oz of water with 1 teaspoon of honey my BP was 149/99. I was so hoping I would see a difference right away. I was not disappointed. Thank you all for your knowledge and the willingness to share it."
YEA] 04/27/2009: Debra from Littleton, North Carolina: "My BP had been running around 150/90-170/90 and sometimes higher. My doc put me on BP meds.(about a year now) I started doing ACV for health purposes, I have been mixing ACV and water (4 tbsp ACV in 20 oz of water) 2-3 X's a day. I started this about a month ago. The last several days my BP was plummeting to 90/50. I started wondering what was causing this. It dawned on me maybe it is the ACV. I was taking it mainly for curbing carb cravings and weight loss. I did not know about the BP benefits. I am not advising anybody to go off meds for their BP. I have gone off mine and I will tell my Dr. about this. I also don't feel sluggish anymore. My allergies have improved greatly. My eyes are brighter. I have not seen any reduction in reduction of carb cravings or weight loss I am thrilled overall with the other benefits. I am hoping my cholesterol will also be better!"

Recently began to notice a difference in left and right side blood pressure (left arm normal range 110/70 and right side elevated to 148/68. Onset fairly recent and only at night after dinner. Considered possiblility of high protein intake at evening meal but was unconvinced that was the cause though it may be reducing viscosity of blood and a contibuting factor. A few months ago changed my nutrition plan to improve pH using a significant alkalinizing product. Result appears to be that the increased alkalinity is reducing potassium. Addition of ACV has balance the blood pressure so it is equal on both the left and right arma and in the normal range between 100/70-120/80 Pulse 62 after 2 days of use (2 tsp only in evening. Never occurred to me that improving pH of saliva could result in decreased potassium levels but apparently it has in my situation and ACV restores imbalance and therfore blood pressure normalizes.

I am on Cardizem 360mg a day as well. I hope to reduce this to 180mg in due course. I hear that ACV being acidic can cause teeth enamel problems. So a mouth rinse after taking it may be helpful."

Suddenly I have High Blood Pressure here in Canada where I live for one year now. Lived in the Tropics last 30 years and swam in a pool every day +-1hr. Now here in Canada a very sedentary life. Too much on my bum I admit but work is by the PC. Anyway I follow this webpage here quite some time now and take ACV 2 x 2 big soup spoon of ACV (organic with mother) not the clear from supermarket, mix it in non sugar added Grapefruit juice with water 1/4 -3/4 1st and last thing every day and it came down from 165 to +- 140.. in one month WITHOUT any other medicine.
I also take one Aspirin per day and the usual Multi vitamin. I am not very "Pro Medicine Pills Person". I also take "Oil of Oregano" for general health 3 x 5 drops per day. That cleared a 4 month chronic / viral office cough of my partner that doctors tried to cure with antibiotics, in 7 days!!! 4got to say he also takes the ACV! It all seem to have improved dramatically his 30 years "GERD, gastritis" also, amazing isn't it?. So maybe "OIL OF OREGANO" may help for High blood also? Now my blood pressure still not normal but will continue. I feel less often the dizzy head.
I recall my Grand father in Austria drinking one month on one off 1L of Apple Juice " with mother" not the clear one made what they call REFORM HAUS/HOUSE. (An old Austrian woman solution) to high blood pressure. But here such Apple juice is like 11$ per liter so.. not $ feasible. Anyone had such a similar story with the Apple juice in America

During the day, I mix a quart bottle of spring water with about 4 tabl. of ACV and drink throughout the day. Anyway, my blood pressure that has always been high for over 25 years is now down like never before.
Prior to any meds: 160/96
With meds: 130/86
NO MEDS and ACV: 110/60
Throughout the day my blood pressure has found a new home of 110/60.
I discontinued my medications because my blood pressure with ACV and MEDS became too low: 98/56
No Meds...ACV alone: 110/60 like clockwork.

YEA] 09/05/2008: Mary from San Bernardino, CA: "I found this site just over a couple of weeks ago while searching for a natural remedy for high blood pressure. I am extremely overweight but was having trouble exercising because of the effects of the medicines my doctor put me on. I did not want to go back to that doctor, nor do I want to stay on these medicines any longer. I can tell that these medicines are poisoning my system.
I had found several remedies that would cost more than my prescriptions, and was about to order one of them when something told me to keep looking.
That was when I found this site. I read through all of the comments and decided that it wouldn't hurt to try the apple cider vinegar. If it didn't work, I could always try one of those expensive remedies.
I have been taking the apple cider vinegar for just about two weeks now and I have noticed an incredible change in my energy levels. Before I started taking the apple cider vinegar, I was always feeling sluggish and had no energy. I was constantly falling asleep at church and at home in front of my computer. Now the sluggish feeling is gone, I have more energy, and I do not have the problem of falling asleep all the time. I am also exercising now.
Yesterday, I forgot to take my afternoon dose of medicine. I wasn't feeling right (I feel 'off' when I don't take my blood pressure medicine) so I took my blood pressure. The average reading was 145/96. Normally when I forget my medicine, the average reading is 165/101. Today, with my medicine, the average was 123/77 (this is after drinking a couple of glasses of cola!) - normally it is 130/85 or 140/90 if I have had any kind of caffeine.
Not only is my blood pressure beginning to come down, but I have also lost 10 pounds in two weeks! Hopefully, I will be able to come off of the medicines soon so I can finally get healthy again. Thank you so much for this website!"
[YEA] 07/29/2008: John from Okeechobee, Florida: "I have high blood pressure and have been taking medication for years, but doesn't really seem to work and I was at a point 3 weeks ago where my blood pressure was high (195/110, causing me dizziness, headaches, etc. My daughter was worried, so she went on the computer to research remedies for HBP and came across this website. She wrote down the remedies that can possibly bring my blood pressure down and looked in our refridgerator and the first thing she found was the Apple Cider Vinegar and told me to take a shot of it and I did. Immediately I felt a little difference, so to make a long story short, I have been taking a shot of the Apple Cider Vinegar ever since. I take it first thing in the morning, Mid Day and at night and it has worked miracles because my blood pressure went down to 130/87. and I have NEVER had my blood pressure this low for YEARS. Thanks to all who have provided feedback, along with the person who has created this website. It has provided more than enough information for me. Thank again, John
YEA] 07/23/2008: Asmai from Houston, USA: "Hi, Ted:

My blood pressure even after madication used to be 145/92.i am aregular 6 to 8 beer drinker. After a week ichecked my bp, it was down to 128/80 range.after about 3 wks it in the 117/75 range.also my heart rate used to 88-92,its down to 68-73. Needless to say I am amazed.
not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but I am very curious as to how this has happened? Any feedback would greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Asmai."
YEA] 05/31/2008: Sue from Choctaw, Oklahoma: "To all, I have use ACV for several months now and have been able to go off all blood pressure medication. I started to use ACV for Gerd (Acid reflex) blood pressure was 150/90 down to 112/60 in two months. Started to use baking soda in ACV and started to have several joint and leg pain. Stopped baking soda, leg pain is better. Forget baking soda - it will cause joint pain in some people so be very careful of it.
ACV will also cause anxiety in some people if used to often. Changes the PH of the body. I have to be careful not to do over one to two teaspoons at a time. Has anyone taken the tablets and do they work ? I also am a R.N. for 22 years and so sick of medication that D.R. put out like candy always looking for alter cures for problem. Most medication is short time cure to more medication."
[YEA] 05/08/2008: Julie from Berlin, Wisconsin: "I actually found this site yesterday. I just found out I have high BP and decided to take the advice and try the ACV. I have used it for acid reflux in the past and knew it worked for that...so why not. I was amazed!!! I also suffer from anxiety. I took it yesterday after reading the site and had a physical today. You would not believe the results. First, about five minutes after taking it my anxiety was gone and when they took my BP it was sytolic was down twenty point and distolic was down ten..!!!! Can you believe it..if not try it."
[YEA] 04/23/2008: Fauzi from Bangi, Malaysia: "I have been on a regiment of ACV for my high blood pressure over the past seven days. My bp plummeted from 188/110 to now being 132/77 thru those 7 days via serious brisk walking (1/2 hour morning, half hour late afternnon everyday), changing to non-fat diet, and that good old ACV. My dosage is one tablespoon of ACV and 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of water, 3 times a day. Somehow I am pretty confident I can achieve the 120/80 level or lower within the next few weeks. For those out there with high bp ( or high cholestrol, or high sugar), do not hesitate to try ACV! "
[YEA] 04/20/2008: Anita from Augusta, GA, USA: "Since the use of apple vinegar my bloodpressure went down to 112/80 and I have been taken of the bloodpressure medication."
[YEA] 04/12/2008: Charles from Willingboro, NJ USA: "Hi, I read about the great results people have been getting from ACV and had heard about its beneficial effects in books, etc. over the years but never really stuck with it. Well I've had high blood pressure for the last 10 years or so and its been getting progressively worse. I've been put on a wide variety of pills by my physicians whom I've come to believe are concerned and try to help (maybe), but nothing they have done has been of any real benefit to my health. Nothing. This past December I went to the emergency room because my pressure was reading 210/160. I was in excuriating pain, my head, neck, back, and eyes all felt as if they were put into a vice or hit with a sledge hammer. No exaggeration. The pain was unbearable. I left the emergency after five and a half hours without being seen by anyone other than the intake nurse and that's when I decided to take my health into my own hands. I began a regime of two tablespoons of ACV in water 2-3 times a day. After two weeks I was tempted to give up because I didn't see any results but I read a comment that said results sometimes take time and to keep going so I did and after my third week there was a breakthrough. My pressure had come down and I haven't taken any medication since December. I've modified my protocol as I've been going along and this is currently how I take my remedy.
3 tablespoons ACV
1 teaspoon cinnamon
half teaspoon cayanne pepper
in a half glass of water
The RESULTS:
No more headaches
No more high blood pressure (it may rise occassionally-then I take an additional dosage of ACV and it goes right down)
No more pains in my joints
No more sinus problems
ACV may not be a miracle cure but it is second only to the grape cure (a regime of eating only grapes) which is extremely hard to follow for any length of time. I posted this really because the tendency is for websites to really discount the "folk" remedies and alternative medicine, because its not scientific or FDA approved. I do feel that rational intelligent people can report accurate results of treatments that we've tried. We don't need a degree or title or government position to state a truth. I'm insulted that we are bombarded on these expert medical sites with don't try this or that without first consulting your doctor. Or stating the these "cures" can possible be harmful! Any so called side effect (if there are any) are far less harmful to your body than any drug on the market. I could go on put I'll just stop at that. Keep posting what works for you by sharing your results we can learn and try to educate each other to break through this maze of medical jargon that is used to obscure facts and present half truths."
YEA] 04/06/2008: Rachel from Bronx, NY: "Hello I want to say that apple cider vinegar really works for high blood pressure. I went to the doctor and my blood pressure was 150/110 and after taking 2 tbps of apple cider Vinegar 3 times a day for about 3 weeks on and off my pressure has gone down to 132/90. It works give it a try!"
YEA] 02/11/2008: Mark from College Station, Texas: "I've got to tell you, I was a HUGE skeptic about home remedies... but taking ACV for high blood pressure has been absolutely amazing!!
I found your site a little over a week ago. My blood pressure had been high for quite sometime...in the 160/95 range...I kept telling myself I could "live" with that. But about a month ago, it started spiking to 180/100 and 185/105...and that scared me...to say the least!! I have always worked out...I'm not terribly over weight...maybe 20 lbs...and I eat fairly good. But I have a somewhat stressful job and I'm definitely a "Type-A" personality...so when it spiked I knew I had to do something.
I started using ACV 6 days ago...and today, when I came home from the office for lunch, my bp was 141/83!! I am amazed and so grateful!! I started noticing a difference about two days after I started taking it.
While it is nasty tasting and smelling...I have found that taking 2 tablespoons, three times a day worked great for me. I measure 2 tablespoons into a glass... about one tablespoon of honey... and down she goes. I chase it with a protein shake!!
I praise God I found this site. Isn't it amazing how God's gifts always seem to work best!!"
YEA] 01/27/2008: Darren from Hicksville, NY: "I started taking ACV to lower my blood pressure. Not only did it lower my pressure (My doctor was shocked at how low it went) It also cured my anxiety and a wart on my hand that i had for over a year. I tried everythin except going to the doctor to have it froze off. ACV made me a New person. Everyone at work said that i have more patience and am more relaxed. It is the Greatest thing since the invention of the wheel. I put a teaspoon full in a glass of water."
[YEA] 01/13/2008: Marla from Cleveland, ohio: "I'm reporting back after about 45 days on 2 teaspoons ACV, honey and water 3x a day...and it's hard to believe. My BP has been around 162 and as high as 190/92. a walking stroke. Now it's 125/82 and this morning it was 117/79! I do take a mild diuretic..I am still overweight with little exercise due to spine and leg pain from an injury. But this has given me some hope to make more changes. Please everybody report back here--so others can benefit. I am amazed."
[YEA] 01/01/2008: John from New York, New York: "I like it straight up - no water. ACV daily knocked down my blood pressure and I lost 14 pounds in the process."
[YEA] 12/31/2007: John from NY: "I live in New York state and had to fight high-blood pressure for many years. I am 54 and was taking all kinds of meds for hbp and related problems. I started to take the ACV in water And hated it. I started to use it on salads and realized how much I liked it straight up So (I don't recommend this to everyone) now I just take a swig everday and I have to say "I love it" I also want to let you know that my BP is better and I feel like a new person – I also lost 14 pounds Over the last couple of weeks (no drastic changes to lifestyle – just watching a little more of what I Eat and taking the ACV daily)."
YEA] 11/09/2007: Kwaku Sam from Accra, Ghana: "My blood pressure hit 140/90 and i was told to be careful. Within two weeks of taking ACV my pressure has dropped to 110/80. I mixed ACV with honey or Maple Syrup and Soda Bicarbonate, twice or thrice a day I am yet to take results for cholesterol check, since i have been on cholesterol Zocor for more than one year. i have since stopped taking Zocor. As a matter of fact, I do not intend taking any medicine as long as I have ACV. Only in Emergency cases like accidents, will make me visit the hospital."
[YEA] 09/08/2007: Sarah from Simi Valley, USA: "I am 45 years and I have been borderline high blood pressure for 5 years. At my last Dr visit he said I was now in the 1st stage of High Blood pressure and he wanted to put me on medication. He gave me three months to try and get it under control myself. I found this sight three weeks ago and began taking 2 TBL spoons of ACV in 8oz of orange juice every morning. I really have had good results with my diastolic pressure but my systolic is actually higher. Another nice change has been more energy and my skin is nicer..."
[YEA] 08/23/2007: Joanne from Chicago , Il.: "49yrs. old and have HBP I am delighted about coming across this site. My doctor won't give me the time of day unless I go on hbp med's. I really do not want to go on medicine. My average blood pressure ranges from 140/95 to 130/80. I am taking ACV once a day, 2 tblspns of ACV mixed with O.J. I am charting my bp readings. I get nervous when I take my readings. I can't help but wonder if this can alter my readings. I am amazed at how many different readings I can get on my bp within a 10 minute time span. For example: Today @10am my readings were as follows: 144/71 130/93 124/78 138/89 124/83 My pulse rate starts out high: 119 but gradually as I beging to relax it comes down to 78. Quite an assorted range. Which reading do you use? Should I only take one, Doc. said to always throw out first reading. I am taking other various natural supplements too. I do yoga and meditate and exercise. I will be interested to see if acv helps. Should I be adding baking soda to this? Does baking soda help alkanize your system."

I Take each morn with 1/2 tsp, baking soda and i have to say it has brought my pressure down from 187/107 to 169/107 in just a 2 week period. I will continue to use. im so glad i came upon this site. will keep you all posted."
[YEA] 08/14/2007: Lynette from Keller , TX: "I became aware of high blood pressure about a month ago and at that time realised it may have been running high for many months. I had had a high reading twice at the dentist but didn't realise it was of concern. My husband monitors his BP so I had him take mine and it was 132/95. That was exactly four weeks ago. I immediately cut salt out of my diet and probably get less than 500 mg of sodium all day. I cut out sugar in most all forms and began eating lots of veg and fruit, I try to swim and do yoga most days or workout at the gym. I started drinking 2 tsp ACV with honey and distilled water 2 - 3 times a day. Initially with the honey my BP spiked high again and I had a day of feeling really bad. I switched to sweetening the vinegar with stevia and after four weeks my bp reading today was 104/68 - it has been steadily decreasing since the first day of altering my lifestyle. It has read as low as 98 /64. The biggest reductions seem to come from the ACV and from hot yoga. I do feel wonderful, best I've felt in years . The ACV has cleared up an annoying allergy that I have had for at least two years now. I have been doing oil pulling too for the past couple weeks and it also seems to help. Not quite sure which is doing which but I know I have more energy , better focus in addition to the bp reduction. I am 51 and have fewer symptoms from menopause as well."
[YEA] 08/10/2007: Joe from Beaumont, California: "Wow! I do not believe it! Had a double by-pass in 2004 and have been on blood pressure medication and medication for acid reflux for years. After I had some side effects from both medications decided to try ACV and garlic pills. Although my blood pressure without medication was only 135/85 my doctor wanted it lower than that because of health history. There was no doubt in my mind that ACV and garlic would not work! Well, dummy me! It worked and worked big time! I have waited 2 months to post my story because I wanted to be sure. Had appts with two of my doctors yesterday and my blood pressure wast 110/72 and later that day 106/70. The big bonus for me was my acid reflux disappeared. I take 2 tablespoons of ACV in a glass of water and a 6,000mg pill of garlic every morning. Try it! You have nothing to lose. It worked for me and hopefully it will work for you.I also should add that I monitored my blood pressure several times daily to make sure it was working. Good luck"
[YEA] 08/01/2007: Yvonne from London, England: "I had really high blood pressure for me 174/114 and I tried 2 tbls ACV in apple juice twice a day for two weeks. have just had my blood pressure tested by the nurse and it is 130/72.

YEA] 07/20/2007: Raphaelo from Deerfield Beach, Florida: "My name is Raphaelo. I am 33 years old living in Florida. I have been living with Nasal cancer for almost 7 years. Like most cancer victims, I took chemo and radiation, but they didn't work for me. Before the treatment, I just had a cold and lump in my neck. After the treatment, I become worse. The cancer spread into my throat. My face is swollen, my eyes are puffy, and I have dry mouth and skin. I feel weak and look pale. Last week, I read a post on your site on how apple cider can lower high blood pressure. Since My blood pressure was constantly high, I tried it. Ever since my BP is normal. The first time I try a remedy that works for me so fast. I feel lucky with that site. What physician couldn't do in 7 years, it's done in less than a week."
[YEA] 07/19/2007: Luis from Bklyn NY, NY: "I do suffer from diabetes for several years. Several weeks ago I went to the doctor and they told me that my cholesterol was quite high 210. I began taking ACV once a day 2 tablespoons a day. In about a month time my cholesterol went down to 160 and blood pressure to 1about 120/80. I noticed that it is suggested to take at least to take the ACV twice to three times a day. Also is the unfiltered product is being used. Has anyone used the capsules? Two tablets do contain 600 mg of ACV. What have been the results of using the capsules? Appreciate comments. Thank you"
[YEA] 07/18/2007: Keith from Vancouver, Canada: "ACV and honey worked for me. I mixed acv and honey 50/50 with garlic,and took 2 tblsp twice a day. In 2 weeks my blood pressure went from 150/100 to 130/80. I place the 2 tblspoons in dandelion tea, drinking it cold from a champagne glass. I keep a jug of the tea in my fridge. Very economical and handy. It tastes better than champagne!! Probably any tea would do, and I will start using it with green tea too."
[YEA] 07/09/2007: Manjo from CT, New London: "My BP was high around 96/146 for several weeks. After reading experiences on this site I started ACV. Now it is normal after 3 weeks of 3 times a day 2tsp ACV with 1tsp honey and glass of water. I also exercise for 1hr daily, feel much better."
[YEA] 06/10/2007: Renee from El Dorado, Kansas: "Whoops... I have been taking 2 Tbls ACV with 1/8 tsp baking soda two to three times a day. A side beneift that I've noticed has been that my vision has improved. I often have bouts of seeing light distortion, very similiar to how the heat coming off hot pavement looks. This makes it very hard to see and gives me a slight eye headache. Must have been BP related."
