6th day on A.C.V and after 28 years of copd and 20% lung function diagnosed on my last review 2 weeks ago,no review,no medicines. I can now do things without sitting down for 10 mins after 3 mins work. It is incredible that I can do things nearly normally. Have even stopped the silent sort of whistle us copd suffers usually do. When I used to play snooker and golf my nickname was the "whistler". Of course had to pack up the golf as I did most of my pastimes which were all sport based

I know ACV will not benefit all people but it certainly benefits me.

Next week,if I am still benefitting from the ACV I am going to start reducing my Meds and like most things I do I will not consult a Dr,just the internet..

Looking forward to another mornings light work before my siesta this afternoon .

42 degrees today. Nice.

Ciao for now. R.

Hi

Not sure about COPD, but can assist in mucus clearance and fighting common cold cold plus.

Modern snake oil?

Hi cough, I am drinking some now....vinegar that is....it's been sat in the cupboard for months, don't think it goes off though. Will let you know if it has any effect on the b mucus ....or my teeth!

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Think you may be right Bev. I tried it a couple of years ago. Gave me terrible heartburn & did absolutely nothing for mucus. After 5 days I felt so awful, & unable to eat a thing, I abandoned it.

R, take care in reducing meds based on "consulting the internet". Seems a bit risky if your lung function is that low

[memanyouwoman in reply to Hidden]

Not that low now.

[Hidden in reply to memanyouwoman]

Oh good! What is it now?

[Titchy52]

memanyouwoman if it works for that's great I have heard about it for your well-being an health might try it if it clears the dreaded mucas I'm on muccodyne syrup and it's yuck and I'm putting weight on with it take care R x

[Buzzytruk in reply to Titchy52]

Hi.......can you not ask for mucodyne capsules,. I take these as and when I feel chesty........no nasty taste and no weight increase .

Jo.

[Titchy52 in reply to Buzzytruk]

I was the capsules first but they weren't thinning out the mucas I was choking on it the syrup works but taste and weight gain not good .

I've been taking ACV, raw, unfiltered with mother for months due to being hypothyroid and having low stomach acid, which causes indigestion. Don't get indigestion anymore. I can vouch for it helping with mucus. I never cough or have had much mucus but over the last few weeks have needed to cough to clear my chest. Initially I thought oh no not a chest infection, but no it's always clear. Wondered why it was happening, all of a sudden, and didn't connect the two until Stone mentioned it. Can only be a good thing keeping my chest clear. Thanks for that Stone x

Hi there what is ACT I've never heard of. it ???

[Hidden in reply to kevin123__puffs]

ACV kevin, for apple cider vinegar

[kevin123__puffs in reply to kevin123__puffs]

Oh I believe it stands for Apple coder vinegar sorry for being so thick 😱

[Misstickle]

Interesting to read this. How much A.C.V are you taking in a day and do you take anything with it? It may be worth giving it a go as you've obviously benefitted a lot from it. Thanks.

[bandit2]

Ive heard ACV is good but I can't get it passed my nose to my lips I start to gag. I remember years ago the vinegar diet couldn't do that either. Vinegar in all forms is supposed to be good for you but YUK the smell and taste I just can't plus the heartburn would kill me. You must have to drink at least 4-8 ounces right

Determined to get vinegar down your neck add quality olive oil ,use as a dip or French dressing.
