We love apple cider vinegar at Go Vita! Here are our top 12 uses for this centuries old remedy.

1. Digestive And Weight Loss Aid
A 2005 Swedish study showed how sipping apple cider vinegar mixed with water during a meal, helped keep blood sugar and insulin levels lower, helping to reduce cravings and increase your level of fullness after eating. A 2009 study in Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry found consuming acetic acid (contained in apple cider vinegar) for 12 weeks led to significant declines in body weight, abdominal fat, waist circumference and triglycerides.

2. Neutralise Stomach Acid
After consuming a particularly fatty meal, take two teaspoons of cider vinegar in a glass of water to relieve the nauseous feeling and get your digestion working better! While helping digestion is apple cider vinegars biggest claim to fame, helping indigestion and acid reflux problems have been added to its growing list of benefits. For best results dilute one to three teaspoons apple cider vinegar in warm water and consume before every meal.

3. Help Improve Sleep
Mix one or two teaspoons with a little honey and some water, and sip prior to bed, traditionally this mixture was used to help bring about sleep.

4. Extend The Life Of Fresh Cut Flowers
Add two tablespoons cider vinegar and one teaspoon sugar to each litre of water.

5. Remove Lint From Clothes
Add half a cup to rinse cycle of every wash.

6. Clean and disinfect wooden cutting boards
Wipe with full strength cider vinegar.

7. Remove spots and film from glasses
Rinse glasses in water and cider vinegar.

8. Clean Windows And Floor Tiles
Add cider vinegar to wash water.

9. Keep Pet Fur Shiny And Eliminate Odours
Add cider vinegar to pet’s drinking water.

10. Deodorise Fridge
Place a cup of apple cider vinegar inside the refrigerator for two days.

11. Boost your hair’s radiance and shine
Add half a tablespoon of cider vinegar and a cup of cold water to a clean plastic bottle.Pour solution through your hair after shampooing.

12. For A Fresh, Healthy Complexion
Dilute one part apple cider vinegar to two parts water (make more dilute for sensitive skin) and use a cotton ball to dab on your face after cleansing and before applying moisturiser. Helps balance the pH level of the skin and the antibacterial and antifungal properties of the cider vinegar help prevent acne problems.

What Is Apple Cider Vinegar?
Apple cider vinegar has been used since 5000BC as a tonic and beverage; it is made from the juice of whole apples that have undergone a fermentation process until their sugars turn to vinegar.

My Cider Vinegar Looks Strange
If you notice a slimy layer inside your cider vinegar bottle, don’t worry and don’t throw it out! That’s called the ‘mother’ and is actually cellulose, a natural fibre produced by the vinegar bacteria, and some say this is the most nutritious part of the vinegar! Also because cider vinegar is acidic it should always be stored in glass, not plastic, bottles.

Men’s Health and Energy - Vitamins and Supplements | Go Vita

Why multi-Vitamins for Men and multi-Vitamins for Women need to be different

---

While it may be tempting to buy a multivitamin that you and your partner can share, doing so may mean neither of you gets a supplement that’s tailored to your needs. Here, we explain your differing nutritional requirements and what you need to look out for when shopping for vitamins for men and vitamins for women. 

It stands to reason that men and women have different nutritional needs. After all, our bodies are different, and our diets and lifestyles tend to be too.

So, when it comes to shopping for a multivitamin for yourself or your partner, there are different issues you need to take into account when deciding which formula to choose. Here are the six most important.


1. Men’s heart disease risk is higher 
Men are significantly more likely to experience certain cardiovascular issues than women, so need to take extra care to maintain the health of their hearts and circulatory systems. From that perspective, important nutrients to look for in a men’s multi include selenium, vitamins B1, B6, C and E and folic acid.

TIP: Ideally your multi vitamin for men should also include lycopene, a naturally-occurring antioxidant found in tomatoes that has benefits for cardiovascular health.



2. Women are more likely to feel run off their feet

While both men and women lead busy lives, research from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) shows that women are particularly prone to feeling that they’re constantly short of time – especially if they’re juggling parenthood with full- or part-time work.

Although many women treat it as normal, that never-ending feeling of being stretched too thin is a form of stress, and can take a toll on both your body and your health habits.

For example, women whose lives are busy or demanding are often prone to skipping meals and eating on the run – habits that can lead to deficient intake of some vitamins and minerals. These eating patterns can be particularly detrimental when you’re under pressure, because stress may increase your requirements for some nutrients, potentially exacerbating any nutritional shortfalls caused by an inadequate diet.

For that reason, the foundations of any advanced mineral formula/multi-vitamin for women should include effective levels of a broad spectrum of B-group vitamins and vitamin C. Vitamins B5 and C are particularly important here, as they play a vital role in supporting adrenal function, which in turn is responsible for many of the body’s stress-coping mechanisms.

TIP: Look for a multi vitamin for women that also contains American ginseng, which has been traditionally used to support resistance to stress, and relieve fatigue and mental and nervous exhaustion. (In traditional Chinese medicine, this herb is regarded as being nourishing to the Yin or feminine energy, so it’s particularly suited to women).


3. Many Australian men are low in zinc

ABS dietary surveys indicate that many Australian men don’t obtain the recommended quantity of zinc from their daily diets, especially as they get older.

These deficiencies could have widespread health implications, because zinc is required for a vast number of physiological functions, including immune health, tissue repair and cognitive functioning.

That makes zinc an essential inclusion in a men’s multivitamin and mineral formula.

TIP: When shopping for a multi vitamin for men for yourself or a partner, look for a formula containing zinc glycinate, which is more easily absorbed and utilised by the body than some other forms of zinc.


4. Women are more likely to be dieting

Around 15 per cent of Australian women are dieting for weight loss or other health reasons at any one point in time.

Under those circumstances, your diet may be low in some of the vitamins and minerals your body needs for optimal health, resulting in compromised nutritional status. (For example, women consuming low-calorie diets or exercising heavily are particularly vulnerable to developing marginal deficiencies of certain nutrients).



 5. Our reproductive health needs are different
 
For men, the issues related to zinc deficiency discussed above are particularly relevant to reproductive health, as this important nutrient is required for testosterone synthesis, hormonal balance, prostate function and the normal production and function of sperm.

Other nutrients that are considered especially important for sperm health and which should be included in a men’s multi include selenium, folic acid and vitamins B12, C and E, while lycopene may assist in maintaining prostate health.

For women, taking a multivitamin that contains both zinc and vitamin B6 may help maintain a healthy menstrual cycle and reduce premenstrual symptoms.

During the childbearing years, a woman’s multi should also contain 400-500 mcg of folic acid, which, when taken daily for at least a month prior to conception and during pregnancy may reduce the risk of having a baby with neural tube defects such as spinabifida.

TIP: Herbal medicines have traditionally been used to support men and women’s reproductive health and sexual vitality. For men, these include Korean ginseng, withania and horny goat weed, which have traditionally been regarded as revitalising male tonics. On the other hand, many women thrive on herbs such as dong quai, shatavari and American ginseng, which have traditionally been used to rejuvenate feminine energy.

Checklist: Does your Multi Vitamins for Men or Women do all this?

Despite all our differences, men and women are the same in many ways, so in addition to the specific requirements discussed here, make sure that any multivitamin you’re considering buying supports the following aspects of your health and wellbeing;

The Gut-Brain Barrier - "Caring, Friendly, Knowledgable Natural Health Consultants"

The gut-brain connection is something that’s been talked about for thousands of years since Hippocrates said ‘all disease begins in the gut’. However, it’s only been in the last two decades we’ve seen strong scientific evidence of the positive effect improved gut health can have on the brain. Kale Brock investigates.

As I’m fond of saying, “your gut is like a central dashboard within the body”, communicating constantly with various extensions such as your immune system, your nervous system, your skin, your heart and, of course, your brain. If you have imbalances or malfunctions in that central dashboard, you can expect malfunctions in the parts reliant on the proper functioning of it. Correct the initial malfunction at the source and expect better functioning along the line, so to speak.

With so many studies pointing to the gut as the source of our ailments, it’s important to look at why this seems to be the case. If research shows so many people are benefiting from taking probiotics or making positive alterations to gut function, then it seems so many people have been out of balance in the gastrointestinal tract. Nature always strives for balance so arguably depression, anxiety and mood swings are a result of an imbalance somewhere in the body.

Why are we so out of balance?
We can’t look past our frivolous use of antibiotics over the past 80 years as being the main culprit of such an imbalance. Antibiotics, as we well know, not only kill off pathogenic microbes but also beneficial ones. And which are the first to grow back in most cases? The pathogenic species. Although antibiotics have been life-saving in many cases, the unfortunate thing is we now have a population whose micro biomes (the collection of microorganisms that inhabit our body) are completely and permanently altered.

We don’t really know what an ideal microbiome is anymore – all we know is that ours have changed completely since the use of antibiotics and we are seeing a huge rise in disease as a result.

When it comes to microbes and our brains the science is quite clear – microbes manufacture our brains most important chemicals known as neurotransmitters within the gastrointestinal tract – up to 90per cent of them in fact. So that serotonin you’ve been wanting, that dopamine to help you feel happy and that all important melatonin to help you fall asleep, are all dependent on gut microbes – interesting huh?

Another factor in the gut-brain connection is the management of inflammation by the actions of gut microbes and the immune system. Our gut bugs are literally talking with our immune cells, teaching them from the time you enter the world how to behave cordially and appropriately. Naturally, if our gut bugs are imbalanced, we can experience numerous immunological challenges. According to research, this seems to stem from increased intestinal permeability, a situation where the thin membrane of the gut (used for diffusing nutrients from the gut into the blood) becomes too leaky and open. This is akin to a flyscreen with large holes and tears in it.

Alongside macromolecules of food, pathogenic microbes and other such intruders now in the bloodstream, a specific marker has been noted to be particularly damaging on the body and brain. LPS, or lip polysaccharide, has been found to be in extremely high levels in Alzheimer’s disease and is known to cause neuron damage in the brain.

These factors may be instrumental in the development of mental illnesses such as depression, anxiety and mood swings as the brain becomes inflamed and less capable of processing information. In fact, research shows mice who receive probiotic treatment and then experience stressful situations report less cortisol development(a stress hormone) and behaviourally seem to be ‘more chilled’. This experiment has been replicated in humans where probiotic treatment regularly reduces qualitative anxiety scores.

Dr Natasha Campbell-McBride goes as far as saying autism is a manifestation of a gut that has become a source of toxicity instead of a source of nutrition during developmental years. According to her, if the condition is treated early enough the autistic symptoms can be reversed. Research supports her opinion by showing autistic children are regularly found to have different gut microbes to their healthy counterparts, specifically having higher levels of microbes like E.coli and clostridia.

So what does all this mean?
If we want to experience great mental health, then considering an approach that looks at the gut is a good move. By taking a sensible, long-term approach, like taking probiotics regularly and eating a diet high in fibre and wholefoods, may be key to attaining a more balanced brain.

I also believe this research suggests we heighten our respect for the human body, which seems to respond well to holistic treatment available from nature. As science continues to uncover the specifics of disease and the microbiome, and how we can pinpoint specific bugs for specific conditions, expect huge improvements in the symptom-based approach of western medicine.

Kale Brock is a journalist and researcher in gut health and primal living. A qualified health and exercise coach, Kale has worked alongside some of the best naturopaths and health personalities in Australia.

The Gut Healing Protocol
This book delves into one of the hottest topics in health science right now! With nine years of research behind him, health journalist and coach Kale Brock provides a simple action plan with validated references to help you improve your gut health and overall vitality.

The Gut Healing Protocol focuses on healing the lining of the gastro-intestinal tract. For the nerdy, it involves tightening the junctions of the epithelium to shutdown inflammatory mechanisms for optimal cellular functioning.

In this beautifully researched and presented book, Brock shares:

• a scientific round-up of the gut and how it influences your health
• world expert views on the microbiome and the roles of various microbes
• why eliminating certain foods can drastically decrease gut inflammation how adding certain supplements and foods assists healing the gut lining
• a comprehensive, gentle eight-week program
• stunning, delicious recipes to help you heal your gut lining and rebalance your microbiome.
