There’s a naturopathic remedy circulating the Internet claiming to clear blocked veins and arteries. Of course, people should know better than believe everything they hear or see on television and the Internet, but the team at Palm Vein Center understands how easy it can be for patients to fall into the "cure-all" trap. Therefore, our team is taking the time to look into this claim and address it head-on. That being said, can a vinegar concoction truly clear blocked veins and arteries? Let’s find out! Although we’re not sure where this claim originated from, we do know there is no scientific evidence proving apple cider vinegar clears clogged arteries. In fact, vinegar should not be substituted for standard treatment. Few studies conducted in 2009 indicated apple cider vinegar could reduce bad cholesterol in animal test subjects; however, it did not completely remove plaque in blocked arteries. Another study published in the 2008 edition of “Pakistan Journal of Biological Sciences” found apple cider vinegar could raise good cholesterol in lab rats. Again, this study did not mention anything about this substances’ ability to clear arteries. Unfortunately, there is no evidence to date that proves apple cider vinegar has these clog-clearing properties. Apple cider vinegar has been said to have other health-related benefits, but consuming it raw could lead to health problems. According to Health Services at Columbia, consuming raw apple cider vinegar could have detrimental health affects like throat irritation, stomach ulcers and it could interact poorly with certain medications.
