ACV can relieve the symptoms of pain and burning in the chest caused by acid reflux. It lowers the stomach acidity without affecting digestion and maintains the tone of the lower esophagal sphincter so that none of the stomach acid can travel back into the esophagus. It also checks fat accumulation in the body and prevents heartburn usually associated with obesity. Drink 2 tsps mixed in a glass of water at each meal.

Have organic ACV as part of your daily diet, but beware the side effects of ACV. It may cause nausea. ACV delays digestion, so it might affect type 1 diabetes patients with gastroparesis.
