Hi,

Having read alot about the benifits of ACV I am going to start taking
it daily. Does anyone know if there would be adverse affects if I
simply drink the stuff straight (i.e. a couple of table spoons) instead
of diluting it in water?

Thanks,

Skean

You know how there's no money to be made in alternative medicine?

I had a client once who sold vinegar as a cure-all by mail order. I
was at his home on one occasion to do some training, a very nice home
on the water's edge in northern Sydney. The full-width and full-length
window across the northern side of the house perfectly framed Lion
Island at the other end of Pittwater. There was a gardener outside
attending to the lawns and roses, and a maintenance man tinkering
around making sure that all the paintwork on the house was sparkling.
There were three almost-new Mercedes Benz cars in the garage, but only
one person at home (the wife was off somewhere in her car). I asked
him if he had a boat and he pointed to several yachts moored off the
beach at the end of the garden and said that one of those was his, but
he wasn't sure which one.

While we were talking the phone rang. When my client came back he
announced that it had been worth taking the call because he had just
sold 55,000 names on a mailing list to be used once only by the list
purchaser. At $7.00 per name it doesn't sound like a lot of money, but
multiply it by 55,000 and you get $385,500. Not bad for five minute's
work, and the person at the other end (who sold some other sort of
alternative medicine) hadn't even bothered to haggle.

Like I said, there's no money to be made in selling alternative
medicine.

By they way, I did mention that this person was my client "once". You
only get to stiff me on a bill once.
