THE CONSUMPTION OF VINEGAR AND APPLE CIDER VINEGAR ARE RELATED TO MANY DISEASES:
RE: VINEGAR:
BIBLE:
Proverbs 10:26 – “As VINEGAR to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to them that send him.”
Psalms 69:21 – “They gave me also gall for my meat; and in my thirst they gave me VINEGAR to drink.”
Matthew 27:48 – “And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it with VINEGAR, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.”
John 19:29-30 – “Now there was set a vessel full of VINEGAR: and they filled a spunge with VINEGAR, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth. When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.”
SOP:
“You say again, “They are not educated in regard to the injurious effects of meat eating and of using sugar and VINEGAR…These things are injurious and deleterious to the human system...” {20MR 2.4}
***God’s people need to be educated regarding the harmful effects of vinegar on the system.
WHAT IS VINEGAR?
vin·e·gar ˈvinəgər noun
1. a sour-tasting liquid containing acetic acid, obtained by fermenting dilute alcoholic liquids, typically wine, cider, or beer, and used as a condiment or for pickling. SO IT IS REFERMENTED ALCOHOL.
HOW IS VINEGAR MADE?
All vinegar is made from the oxidation of ethanol, which produces acetic acid. The process of making alcohol and vinegar are very similar, and the only difference is in how the raw materials are allowed to ferment. With apple cider vinegar, apples first are crushed, releasing the liquid, and yeast is added to initiate fermentation. When making vinegar, the fermentation process is allowed to continue. (To learn more, go to the following link: http://www.ehow.com/how-does_4928186_how-apple-cider-vinegar-made.html
THE COMPOSITION OF VINEGAR:
- Acetic Acid (4% to 12%). This is a toxic substance, that if taken in sufficient quantities, produces serious alterations in the coagulative properties of the blood known as disseminated intravascular coagulopathy, besides anemia and renal failure.
FYI: ACETIC ACID COMES WITH AN MSDS SHEET…WHAT IS A MSDS SHEET?
- MSDS is the acronym for Material Safety Data Sheet. The purpose of a Material Safety Data Sheet or MSDS is to give workers and emergency personnel the necessary procedures for handling and working with chemicals.
HEALTH ISSUES RELATED TO THE CONSUMPTION OF VINEGAR:
- Ferments in the stomach
- Hinders the digestion process
- Blood becomes impure
- Causes anemia
- Causes Renal Failure
- Causes Kidney problems
- Causes Liver Problems
- It erodes dental enamel
- It breaks the mucus barrier that protects the mucous membrane of the stomach, causing gastritis
- It causes anemia due to hemolysis (destruction of the red blood cells)
- Messes with the platelet count
- It prevents the proper breakdown of protein
- AND SO MANY OTHER PROBLEMS
VINEGAR MAY BE FOUND IN:
- A1-Steak sauce
- Anything pickled
- Bagels
- BBQ sauce
- Capers
- Catsup
- Dinner Rolls
- Hamburger Buns
- Hot Dog Buns
- Ketchup
- Marinated Artichokes
- Marinated Red Bell Peppers
- Marinated waxed beans
- Mayonnaise
- Most Bread
- Mustard
- Pickles
- Salad Dressing
- Salad spreads
- Sauerkraut
- Some Green Olives
- Some Jarred Dried Tomatoes
- Vegenaise
- Worcestershire sauce,
- AND THE LIST GOES ON
SOP: OIL & VINEGAR:
“The salads are prepared with oil and vinegar, fermentation takes place in the stomach, and the food does not digest, but decays or putrefies; as a consequence, the blood is not nourished, but becomes filled with impurities, and liver and kidney difficulties appear.” (CD 345.6)
***We are counseled against “apple cider” and “vinegar.” Therefore, APPLE CIDER VINEGAR IS A DOUBLE WHAMMY. Vinegar is none other than alcohol refermented. We are counseled to eat nothing fermented.
WHAT ABOUT APPLE CIDER VINEGAR?
WHAT IS APPLE CIDER VINEGAR?
Apple cider vinegar is an acidic liquid made from the fermentation of apples. It has a golden or amber color, and may or may not be filtered or pasteurized. The word vinegar comes from the old French “vin aigre,” meaning “sour wine,” but, actually, any alcohol can be used. Vinegar gets its sour taste from acetic acid, which is formed during fermentation.
Apple cider vinegar is used in folk remedies and cooking.
***VINEGAR IS THE HIGHEST FORM OF FERMENTATION. APPLE CIDER VINEGAR IS EVEN HIGHER.
SOP:
“A tendency to disease of various kinds, as…
- Dropsy
- Liver complaint
- Trembling nerves, and
- A determination of blood to the head, results from the use of sour cider. By its use many bring upon themselves permanent disease. Some die of
- Consumption or fall under the power of
- Apoplexy from this cause alone. Some suffer from
- Dyspepsia
- Every vital function is deadened and the physicians tell them that they have
- Liver complaint,
- When if they would break open the cider barrel, and never replace it, their abused life forces would recover their vigor.” (CD 434.1}
CIDER DRINKING LEADS TO THE USE OF STRONGER DRINKS
The stomach loses its natural vigor, and something stronger is needed to arouse it to action.”
“I cannot see how, in the light of the law of God, CHRISTIANS CAN CONSCIENTIOUSLY ENGAGE IN the raising of hops or in the manufacture of wine or cider for the market. All these articles may be put to a good use and prove a blessing, or they may be put to a wrong use and prove a temptation and a curse. Cider ...if used in an unfermented state...will not dethrone reason...” {5T 356.1}
ACCORDING TO THE SOP, DRINKING FERMENTED CIDER CAUSES THE FOLLOWING:
- Animal passions control the higher power (5T 357)
- Animal passions strengthened (Te 277)
- Apoplexy (5T 357)
- Appetite fostered for stronger drinks (MH 332)
- Brain benumbed and beclouded (5T 357)
- Confirmed drunkards (Te 95)
- Death from consumption (5T 357)
- Disease of various kinds (5T 357)
- Dropsy (edema/swelling from extra fluid) (5T 357)
- Dyspepsia (5T 357)
- Gross and sensual disposition (5T 357)
- Inebriation of worst kind (5T 357)
- Licentiousness (Te 92-93)
- Liver complaint (5T 357)
- Men reduced to level of brutes (5T 358)
- Nervous system disordered (Te 93)
- Permanent disease (5T 357)
- Rush of blood to head (Te 95)
- Give way to lust (Te 92-93)
- Stomach loses natural vigor (5T 358)
- Trembling nerves (5T 357)
- Vices of almost every type (5T 357)
- Vital functions of body deadened by (5T 357)
***Martinelli’s….is a fermented drink…
MEDICAL SCIENCE SAYS THE FOLLOWING REGARDING THE DANGERS OF APPLE CIDER VINEGAR:
- Depletes the WBC (white blood cells) count
- Inhibits Hemoglobin in the blood, causing anemia
- Lab tests show that apple cider vinegar, when taken internally, blocks the digestive enzyme “amylase”.
- Leads to anemia
- Robs nutrients from the body
- Thins out the blood
- AND MUCH MORE
Although some claim healing properties for APPLE CIDER VINEGAR, there is NO SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE to confirm it. The drawbacks outweigh any benefits there may be.
“…You have gratified the taste at the expense of the stomach. You have taken into your stomach articles which it is impossible to convert into good blood…” (2T 66.2)(See Philippians 3:19)
“…We must be satisfied with pure, simple food, prepared in a simple manner. This should be the diet of high and low. Adulterated substances are to be avoided. We are preparing for the future, immortal life in the kingdom of heaven. We expect to do our work in the light and in the power of the great, mighty healer. All are to act the self-sacrificing-part.” {CD 85.1} (Matthew 10:28) (Ps 84:11)
GOOD TO KNOW:
- “A reform in eating would be a saving of expense and labor…” (CD 84.4)
***Apple cider may be used externally in your hair, on your toenails for fungus, etc. (Lemon juice can do the same).
WHAT TO INTERNALLY USE INSTEAD:
Lemon Juice...Every morning, upon arising, squeeze the juice of one lemon into two cups of warm water. This will dump all the toxins from the Liver that have accumulated overnight as well as making the body alkaline.
SOP:
“In the morning I take lemon and water. I drink nothing between meals unless it be occasionally some lemon and water...” {21MR 290.6}
“I use lemon juice freely. It is the best thing you could use for rheumatism, for your head, and for malaria.” {2MR 48.1}
WHAT IF SOMEONE HAS AN ADDICTION TO VINEGAR? DID YOU KNOW SISTER WHITE HAD AN ADDICTION TO VINEGAR?
“I have just read your letter. You seem to have an earnest desire to work out your salvation with fear and trembling. I encourage you to do this. I counsel you to discard everything that would cause you to do halfway work in seeking the kingdom of God and His righteousness. Put away every indulgence that would hinder you in the work of overcoming. Ask for the prayers of those who can comprehend your need of help.” {CD 484.3}
“There was a time when I was in a situation similar in some respects to yours. I had indulged the desire for vinegar. But I resolved with the help of God to overcome this appetite. I fought the temptation, determined not to be mastered by this habit.” {CD 485.1}
“For weeks I was very sick; but I kept saying over and over, The Lord knows all about it. If I die, I die; but I will not yield to this desire. The struggle continued, and I was sorely afflicted for many weeks. All thought that it was impossible for me to live. You may be sure we sought the Lord very earnestly. The most fervent prayers were offered for my recovery. I continued to resist the desire for vinegar, AND AT LAST I CONQUERED. Now I have no inclination to taste anything of the kind. This experience has been of great value to me in many ways. I obtained a complete victory.” {CD 485.2}
“I relate this experience to you for your help and encouragement. I have faith, my sister, that you can come through this trial, and reveal that God is the helper of His children in every time of need. If you determine to conquer this habit, and will fight it perseveringly, you can obtain an experience of the highest value. When you set your will resolutely to break off this indulgence, you will have the help you need from God. Try it, my sister.” {CD 485.3}
