Mrs. Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar and pregnancy?

[blueyezz4]

Anyone out there drink Mrs. Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar while being pregnant?  Their website says it's okay, but i know it's not pasteurized which I think would be the only issue.  I guess it is a good way to treat indigestion/heartburn I have heard and would love a more natural way to do it than TUMS, plus there are so many other benefits too that seem good.  Let me know your thoughts.

I have zero hesitation using it.  Since it's raw it means that there are active probiotics which is one of the great benefits!

Vinegar is a generally hostile environment for pesty microorganisms, because it's acidic - unlike, say, raw milk or regular apple cider, or bean sprouts.  Personally, I wouldn't worry about drinking unpasteurized vinegar (it's akin to eating really sour pickles or kimchi), but, if you are concerned, there's regular pasteurized cider vinegar, and you can get your probiotics from something else. :)  And I'll be honest.  I find it really difficult to believe that Braggs is "live" like they say it is, because it's shelf stable.  Even wine is stabilized with sulfites to keep the flavor from changing.

Thanks!!!!  I'm taking it and I'm not going to worry about it. It is already helping w/ the indigestion!!!

I started drinking Braggs to help with indigestion and a horrible taste in my mouth - realized I also haven't had a leg cramp at all through this pregnancy. Go for it.
