My Father thought it helped.
If you mix it with a little honey and water it is easy to take.

Might just have been placebo effect for Dad who knows?Worth a try I would have thought.

I have osteoarthritis in my right hand - can’t bend my fingers very well - and I’ve been recommended to take a couple of tablespoons of cider vinegar in warm water every morning. The person who recommended it said it had helped her but the nhs and other sites say it’s an old wife’s tale. What’s the view of my lovely gransnet friends?
