Cheap, easy to access, takes 30 seconds to make and actually works?
No way.
I need to buy a supplement! I need to do a cleanse! I need to go see my gastroenterologist and get some antibiotics.
Is this you? Ok, well stop it. First of all the above energy is probably disturbing your digestion, but some of you aren’t ready to have that discussion.
Instead, try this simple gut healing elixir every morning on an empty stomach for 30 days and tell me your stomach troubles haven’t improved dramatically. Sometimes, the simpler the solution, the more effective it is.
I’m sure many of you have seen a similar beverage or maybe even ordered an Apple Cider Vinegar drink online. But here is my recipe for my OG morning elixir.
Combine 1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar, please make sure you’re buying the raw, unfiltered kind with no additives, and WITH the Mother!
The juice of 1/4 of a lemon or lime (organic when you can.)
1/2 tsp or more raw honey (Buy local and raw. Pay for the good stuff. It’s one of the most broad spectrum natural antibiotics and antivirals you can find.)
Mix this together well and add a splash of filtered water.
Bottoms up!
Why does this work so well? Why do people rave about ACV for gut health?
ACV helps to increase stomach acid, which is often the hidden root cause in digestive conditions like SIBO and IBS.
ACV, especially the raw and unfiltered kind has a great probiotic profile.
ACV has antimicrobial properties that can help keep any bad bugs in check.
Lemon’s acidic profile helps stimulate digestion and move food through the digestive tract, eventually having an alkalizing effect on the body after metabolized.
Honey is a prebiotic, providing a feast for the good bugs in your microbiome.
Honey has naturally occurring enzymes that are great for digestion.
Honey has flavonoids like quercetin which have been shown in studies to have significant anti-inflammatory benefits.
Honey is a natural powerhouse of antibacterial and antiviral properties.
And the honey makes it a lot easier to get this drink down. ACV on its own is strong!
Give it a whirl this month and heal your gut!
