Drinking vinegar is beneficial. Moderation is the key

　　Vinegar, also known as bitter wine, is both a commonly used cooking condiment and a commonly used traditional Chinese medicine.

　　Benefits of drinking vinegar

　　1. Digestible fats and sugars

　　Vinegar contains substances such as amino acids and organic acids. The amino acids contained in vinegar can promote the conversion of excess fat in the body into physical energy consumption, and can also digest sugar absorbed by the body.

　　2. Can be diuretic and laxative

　　Vinegar can promote metabolism and increase gastrointestinal motility. Vinegar has diuretic function. Drinking a small amount of vinegar can effectively improve constipate chronic disease.

　　3. Reduce salt intake

　　Eating too salty food not only puts a heavy burden on the body, but also the saltier you eat, the more water you drink. When you drink too much water, it accumulates in the body, making it difficult not to gain weight.

　　Be careful when drinking vinegar

　　1. Up to 1-2 cups of diluted vinegar per day

　　A small amount of jealousy is fine, but a large amount of vinegar can cause too much irritation to the gastrointestinal tract.

　　2. Do not drink vinegar on an empty stomach

　　Stimulates the secretion of excessive gastric acid and damages the stomach wall. Drinking vinegar between meals or one hour after meals is less irritating to the gastrointestinal tract and helps digestion.

　　3. Patients with gastric ulcer and hyperacidity should not consume vinegar.

　　Because vinegar will not only corrode the gastrointestinal mucosa and aggravate the development of ulcers, but also vinegar itself is rich in organic acids, which can cause the digestive organs to secrete a large amount of digestive juice, thus increasing the digestive function of gastric acid to prevent increased gastric acid and aggravation of ulcers.

　　4. People who are taking certain Western medicines should not be jealous

　　Sulfa drugs can easily form crystals in the kidneys in an acidic environment and damage the renal tubules. Therefore, it is not advisable to be jealous while taking such drugs.
