Coconut vinegar does not differ from apple cider vinegar all that much. Therefore, it has similar uses as apple cider vinegar, from consuming to personal care. Here are a few examples:
1. Cleansing & energizing morning beverage
Good for digestion and immune system. Just add one tablespoon of Medella Coconut Vinegar and honey into a cup of water.
Note: Do not consume more than 2 tbsp of raw coconut vinegar a day.
2. Fruit & vegetable cleanser
Soak your fruits and vegetables in Medella Coconut Vinegar and water to minimize bacteria and destroy fungus that may be present. This may also extend the freshness of produce. Use a ratio of 3:1 and soak for 10-15 minutes, then rinse.
3. Treat skin issues
Medella Coconut Vinegar has antimicrobial and antibacterial properties. Apply on your skin to treat complications such as acne or sunburn.
4. Post cleansing toner
Use two parts water and one part Medella Coconut Vinegar as you would an all-natural toner. You can adjust the mixture to make it weaker or stronger to accommodate your skin type.
5. Hair rinse
Pour half a cup of Medella Coconut Vinegar and half a cup of water on your hair after shampooing. This will help nourish your hair plus prevent hair loss. Remember to leave the mixture on your head for a couple of minutes before rinsing.
