I'm guessing it's the same guy I saw on tv some time ago, suggesting a shot glass of cider vinegar to help ease heartburn. According to his theory, the heartburn isn't caused by an overabundance of stomach acid, but by a shortage. By ingesting vinegar, you supplement your own stomach acid, which aids digestion, and reduces heartburn.

The concept:

For some people, acid reflux may be a result of too little stomach acid. Proponents of this remedy claim apple cider vinegar might be beneficial because it introduces more acid into the digestive tract. This acid is also effective against several types of bacteria and acts as an antimicrobial agent.

The reality:

Apple cider vinegar might improve acid reflux in people not taking medications and with minimal risk. But although there’s a lot of anecdotal evidence, there’s very limited research.

In fact, no research supporting this claim has been published in a medical journal. A graduate thesis did find that raw or unfiltered apple cider vinegar may prevent heartburn, though.

More research is needed to determine whether apple cider vinegar is a consistent and reputable way to treat acid reflux.
