Apple cider vinegar is a substance with many health benefits, including removing toxins, improved immune system, weight control, healthy skin and digestion help, according to Bragg.com. The most beneficial form of apple cider vinegar available is in its natural form, made by crushing organic apples and matured in wooden barrels. This type of apple cider vinegar contains cloudy, web-like strands known as "the mother," which show that it contains enzymes and minerals not present in processed forms of apple cider vinegar. Using apple cider vinegar creatively in your diet will help you reap its benefits every day.
Step 1

Step 2
Add 1 tbsp. of apple cider vinegar for every 2 1/2 cups of flour when you are baking bread. This will help the bread rise, according to Apple-Cider-Vinegar-Benefits.com. Remember to reduce the amount of water by the amount of vinegar you added.
