today we're going to talk about apple cider vinegar why you should be taking it as a
woman over 50 what it does for our body and most importantly i'm going to show you
how to take apple cider vinegar without gagging Hi I'm Schellea and welcome to fabulous50s
today I'm going to show you how to make a pre-food elixir we're going to make up a
concoction that you drink half an hour before you eat and it's going to assist you with digestion
and what that does is helps with bloating and as we get older our stomach acid reduces so when we
put food into our stomach it quite often just sits there because we don't have enough inside
of us enough acid to chew the food up and break it down so it can eliminate and if you've got a low
stomach acid that's a real problem for so many of us it causes bloating it's very uncomfortable it's
partly to blame for being constipated and it gets worse as we get older so many of you probably know
that apple cider vinegar is good for you but when i started when i learned how to do this years ago
we were taught to throw it down and suffer the consequences which was a horrible taste
and a burning at the back of your throat and kind of you didn't want to do it anymore because it
was something that you feared when you woke up in the morning i'm going to show you my recipe easy
simple and the main thing that i see many other people do is they fill up their glass with a lot
of water and a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar and then it's like you know the worst thing in the
world trying to get the whole lot down so we're not going to do that okay we're going to start
off in the morning so this is half an hour before the food goes into your body and we're going to
drink this mixture and it's going to prepare our body for the food it's about to receive
so we are going to have the mix made up for the whole day we'd only need to make it once and
then we had some before breakfast lunch and dinner 30 minutes before the most important
thing to know with apple cider vinegar is buy the organic apple cider vinegar that's got floaties
at the bottom so these are small strands of yeast and bacteria
and it's good bacteria for our gut it's very healing if you go to the supermarket and you
see apple cider vinegar that's all clear in the bottle don't buy that that's not going to help
you buy something like this this is bragg's it's organic and it's got floaties that's what you
need so shake it up and then we're going to put three teaspoons or a little bit more into a glass
and then we're going to add half a lemon and the lemon in this drink is going to add an alkalizing
effect plus lemon is really good for our skin our digestion so if you do nothing else just having
lemon in water before you eat is a very good thing but we're going to make it even better after that
a teaspoon of cinnamon organic cinnamon and when i say a teaspoon i mean like a heaped half teaspoon
so you put that in and what cinnamon does is it helps us burn fat it's a miracle and this is the
new thing that i'm having with everything at the moment cinnamon because there's so many benefits
cinnamon really helps lower out visceral fat so adding this is perfect to everything and it helps
us lower our cholesterol and our blood pressure as well so get some cinnamon and put it on everything
you can't overdose on cinnamon but it really helps to us to burn fat and to really help
regulate our system and then we're going to add a teaspoon of honey make sure that you use the good
honey the honey that's from the bees and it's not processed so this much honey you put it in
now honey is an antioxidant which is great because it helps fight the free radicals but this doesn't
taste good without it so it does such a great job inside your body but you've got to get it
down and it's got to be doable so that you can do it every day now i only add this much water
and then i add the same amount of hot water
and for some reason the hot water makes it taste better i don't know why it's just less
painful so stir it around and then this is three
meals worth of tonic and now we have a magic potion and think of this like if you go to
the gym many athletes take a pre-trainer to get their bodies ready and to give them more energy
to work out so this is like a pre-food drink and if you can get it into your mind
to drink something like this before you eat every time it's really going to help you with your
digestion and your fat loss and your metabolism and it's going to help reduce your insulin
which is what we need as we're getting older so take out a third of this and we're going to
stir it around and then you only have to drink it once
that is so okay it's actually nice so i've already done my morning one
how easy was that i didn't have to drink that much and suffer the cinnamon
really helps now you'll take another one before your lunch and then at night time
you can make it special let's get our third for the night this is how much you have at night
you can do that that is easy that's not going to hurt
you can mix it with some sparkling mineral water
it kind of feels like you're having a glass of champagne
and then this is a secret ingredient this is a pink grapefruit and when you squeeze this in
something magic happens and what happens with pink grapefruit is that it helps you
eliminate so it helps get your bowels moving and if you take this at night time before you eat
when you wake up in the morning you'll find everything works properly and then
this is messy and then top it with some more sparkling
and this can replace your glass of wine at night again it's what you tell your mind you wait till
you try it you're going to like this and you're going to start having it instead of alcohol you
only need one everything about these ingredients are superb for women over 50 go and buy all of
them and have them ready to be made up every day and use it do it just try it for two weeks
and see how your body goes and let me know please give a thumbs up if you enjoyed this
