I am really enjoying all of this information about Apple cider vinegar & “MOTHER”. I never knew what that stuff was at the bottom of the juice so I would try to drain the juice off of it & leave that STUFF in the jar. YOU
see, I was told when I was a very little girl, that the stuff at the bottom of the jar was some sort of bug that did something good for the juice & was good for us to drink. I love apples & apple juice. So maybe they told me that to keep me from seeking more juice (or something). All these years I have asked many people – WHAT IS THAT DARK STUFF AT THE BOTTOM OF THE JAR OF APPLE CIDER -. Today 1-16-23, I have finally found the truth. Not only that, but all the many benefits from drinking apple cider vinegar & it’s many other uses that I
am going to put into practic. Thank you so very much. Marva Batiste – this is my correct e-mail.
