Apple Cider Vinegar for Personal Health Care and Hygiene
Anti-fungal and Anti-Bacterial
The properties of ACV goes a long way in making us get rid of any kind of fungus or bacteria growing on our body, especially on our skin and between the toes. Applying Apple Cider Vinegar on the affected area does wonders for skincare. It kills the infection causing agents, dries up the area and naturally brings the skin back to its normal being.
In order to get rid of various skin problems such as pimples, acne or the like, you could simply dab some AVC on the affected area, or wash your face using some Apple Cider Vinegar. Follow this by moisturizing the area with some coconut oil. The pH level of ACV is what makes it a natural toner, usually for all skin types. Using ACV on a regular basis tones your skin and rejuvenates the same, without any side effects whatsoever.
Natural Deodorizing Agent
Unlike the commercially available and synthetic counterparts, ACV acts as an effective natural deodorant. This is how it aids –
- It has the ability to kill the yeast and bacteria which grow at places on our body and result in sweating.
- And therefore, removes the foul body-odour.
DIY Remedy
You could simply rub some Apple Cider Vinegar on your hands or on a piece of cloth, and dab it on the armpits. Apple Cider Vinegar has a rather low pH level which dries up the area, and thus helps you feel and smell absolutely fresh. All this, while keeping sweat-free, all day long!
Body Detox
Apart from these personal care benefits, ACV also detoxifies our body by removing toxins from our body at a much faster rate, and helping us balance the natural pH of our body.
Natural Antibiotic
Acetic acid, which is the key active ingredient, is what makes Apple Cider Vinegar naturally antibiotic. This largely lends ACV the ability to kill the bad bacteria present in our body and surroundings. Not only this, it also aids the good bacteria to grow and thrive.
