The health benefits of apple cider vinegar and raw honey taken on their own are quite extensive. Both are powerhouses when it comes to nutrition and health. When combined, these benefits become even greater and more positive for our bodies. As well, the honey can sweeten the vinegar, making it easier to drink. The combination of these two ingredients is so helpful to our bodies due to their chemical properties and numerous interactions with the body and bodily processes. Apple cider vinegar is alkaline when consumed. The same can be said for honey.
