Acid Reflux

Apple cider vinegar specifically has been cited as a remedy for acid reflux, or gastroesophegeal reflux disease (GERT). D.C. Jarvis’ bestselling book “Folk Medicine” promoted its use in 1958, and the remedy has been popular ever since. http://ezinearticles.com/?Apple-Cider-Vinegar-vs-Acid-Reflux&id=362168

Raw apple cider vinegar has in it what is called "mother". It is the cloudy portion that settles near the bottom of the gallon jug. If you do not have mother in your apple cider vinegar it probably has been distilled and as such will not work as well as the real raw cider vinegar. When you make your tea you should shake the jug prior to using it to assure that you will be getting some of the "mother" when you mix your tea. The "mother" contains enzymes as well as other compounds that enhance digestion processes. http://ezinearticles.com/?Acid-Reflux-Heartburn-and-Raw-Apple-Cider-Vinegar&id=606716
