Top 15 Uses for Apple Cider Vinegar:

1 Use ACV in place of balsamic vinegar in salad dressing. (See below for an awesome salad dressing recipe!)

2 Add to your morning smoothie, but be careful—it has a pretty strong taste, so add a little to begin.

3 Use it as a facial toner. Mix one part ACV to 3-4 parts water. Apply to skin with a cotton pad, let it sit for about 10 minutes, then rinse. Repeat three times a day.

5 Stomach Soother —Try a "digestion mocktail" with 2 teaspoons ACV, 1 tablespoon each of fresh ginger water and fresh lemon juice, 8 ounces of sparking honey and raw honey to taste. Pour over ice and enjoy! (Ginger is also known for its stomach-soothing properties. Learn more about ginger uses and benefits.)

7 Use ACV in your bath. Add ½- 1 cup to your bath water along with Epsom salts and lavender essential oil for a relaxing and detoxifying bath.

8 I like using apple cider vinegar to get rid of hiccups—the sour taste of a straight teaspoon can stop hiccups.

9 Make a fruit fly trap—Put a thin layer of ACV in a cup with a drop of dish soap. Set it out on the counter and the fruit flies will (hopefully) fly in and get stuck.

10 Get rid of cat urine smell—add it to the laundry when you wash the clothing, blanket, etc.

11 Get rid of bad breath—add ½ tablespoon to a cup of water, and gargle for 10 seconds at a time until the cup is empty.

12 Use apple cider vinegar for a healthy throat. Mix 1/4 cup ACV with 1/4 cup of warm water and gargle every hour.

13 Beat exercise exhaustion—lactic acid buildup in the body causes fatigue, while the amino acids in ACV act as an antidote. Add a tablespoon to a glass of water after a workout.

14Create shiny, untangled hair by adding 1/3 cup ACV to 4 cups of water and pour over your hair after shampooing. Leave on for a few seconds and rinse with cold water.

15 Use it as a teeth whitener by gargling with it every morning. The vinegar helps remove stains and clean the mouth and gums.
