I would be on medication for the rest of my life, according to him.

However, my so-called “incurable” condition disappeared in a mere three days thanks to an apple cider vinegar concoction.

Twice a day, with every lunch and dinner, I supplemented with two teaspoons of apple cider vinegar and two teaspoons of honey in eight ounces of water along with a calcium lactate supplement.

I instinctively avoided using apple cider vinegar for breakfast.

I met Swami Nitty-Gritty five years later, and I learned why — apple cider vinegar, as well as most other vinegars, are not morning foods.

It’s now 2015, forty-five revolutions around the Sun later, and I remain symptom-free.
