Thanks to Twitter, I just learned one of Katy Perry’s big secrets.  Apparently she recently played a concert in her hometown of Santa Barbara, California and backstage the folks who work at Bragg (where Bragg headquarters are) asked her to sign a poster for Patricia Bragg (daughter of the infamous health guru, Paul Bragg).  To their surprise Perry not only signed the poster but wrote “…your apple cider vinegar is my secret among secrets…”:

Katy Perry sips Bragg’s Organic Apple Cider Vinegar (1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon is the recommended dose) to help her stay healthy, but its not a total shocker.  Patricia Bragg has helped many celebs get healthy by incorporating apple cider vinegar into their diet.  Madonna, Demi Moore, Clint Eastwood, Jack LaLanne and others are apparently fans as well.  So what can apple cider do for you?  Instead of making medical claims the FDA may frown upon, I’ll share my own personal experience with this simple, nature-provide miracle juice:

*Suppresses appetite

*Provides a boost of energy

*Healed a plantar wart on the bottom of my foot (with nightly topical application - no joke)

*Clears acne prone skin

*Cleans hard to remove stains or residue on laundry or in the kitchen

*Great ingredient for a healthy salad dressing

I always keep a bottle of Bragg’s Organic Apple Cider Vinegar on hand for a variety of uses.  Have you tried “ACV” and if so, are you a fan?  Please share your story!

Note: Not all Apple Cider Vinegar is created equal.  The kind with the healthy benefits is cloudy and has “the mother” (apple sediment) on the bottom of the bottle, not the clear kind you find in the salad dressing aisle at your grocery store.  If you’ve never tried it, please start slow using only 1 teaspoon in 8 ounces of water and gradually increase to 1 tablespoon.
