Apple cider is made from the juice that is extracted from the pulp of pureed apples.

Apple cider vinegar is made from fermenting apple cider. Apple cider contains bacteria and acids that have shown a vast array of health benefits. Normal dosage instructions for apple cider vinegar is to mix 2 tablespoons into a glass of water and drink 3 times per day. Apple cider vinegar is the only kind of vinegar that is used mainly for health purposes. Like apples, apple cider has many health benefits.

As a refreshing drink, lemonade helps you stay calm and cool. The health benefits of it are due to its many nourishing nutrients such as vitamin C and potassium while having no fat and therefore no cholesterol.  Unlike most animals, humans are not able to synthesize vitamin C, so it becomes a crucial dietary component. Also recognized as ascorbic acid, it is mostly known because of its antioxidant properties, but it also helps in the synthesis of collagen (growth and repair of connective tissue), the healing of wounds, and the functioning of the immune system. Vitamin C is also very important in a vegetarian diet as it helps absorb the iron in plant-based foods. Half a cup of lemon juice covers approximately a 77% of vitamin´s C daily recommendation.
