Health & Beauty. delivery number 34: THE VINEGAR.

Thank you for visiting my blog and Continuing with the series nature, today I bring you information about:

According to scientific research, all the different types of vinegar have useful therapeutic properties to maintain human health.

The wine vinegar.

It is obtained from the fermentation of white or red wine. It is the product that is obtained from the action of the bacterium Acetobacter. These, in the presence of air, oxidize the ethanol contained in the wine and transform it into acetic acid.

Apple cider vinegar.

This is my favorite. It is obtained by fermentation of the juice instead of apple in large wooden barrels for as long as it takes for it to become cider. Once the cider is obtained, the bacteria of the genus Acetobacter are added, which will then turn it into apple cider vinegar.

There are other wines according to the country, rice wine vinegars are traditionally produced in Asian countries. Sugar cane and coconut vinegars, on the other hand, are common in the Indian countries and the Philippines. Date vinegars, on the other hand, are typical of the Middle East.
