How Apple Cider Vinegar Helps You Sleep Deeply All Night. I put this simple recipe to the test and it worked so well I now don’t go a day without taking this before bed.
You might have heard of a recipe floating around that guarantees you a good night’s sleep made from apple cider vinegar and honey?
I am not eating honey as I’m a vegan, but I still wanted to try this as I’ve had insomnia all my life and often have struggled to fall asleep even if I’m tired.
I’ve tried everything else so I thought – why not just try it without the honey?
Here is the recipe I used:
Apple Cider Vinegar Sleep Solution
** Please note that this post may contain affiliate links which means that I can receive a small payment if you make a purchase through my links.
Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar (you need to get one with the mother like this. See it on Amazon)
- ¼ – 1 Cup of Water: more water is better as Vinegar can burn as it goes down. But if you can’t stomach a whole cup, just try 1/4 cup as it is easier to drink in one go.
Instructions
Mix the Vinegar and the water in a small glass and drink it down in one.
It doesn’t taste delicious – which is probably why the honey is used. But it is bearable and if you drink some plain water after you’ve had this you’ll be just fine.
If you are looking for a vegan alternative to honey, this is my favorite sweetener because it is made from whole foods which are so much healthier for you and contains added minerals to help you sleep.
So what happened after drinking this?
It was late but I’d been on my computer all night (this is a problem because blue light from your computer in the evening stops you sleeping) so I was tired but wired and not really feeling like I was going to be sleeping naturally tonight.
But after drinking this recipe, I did feel immediately tired. It honestly did work straight away. I went to bed and sure enough I did get to sleep really fast. I also got up as usual to go to the toilet mid way through the night but I did get straight back to sleep again which is unusual for me.
Wow, pretty amazing!
Someone left a great comment when they tried this:
“My MI fit watch says that I get much more deep sleep when I drink ACV in a glass of water before bed. Last night: 4h 32 m deep sleep, 3 hours light sleep! Further proof: there were two nights that I forgot to drink it and I hardly got any deep sleep! So it works for me!”
Let me know in the comments if you tried this and if it worked for you?

Hi Katherine,I just wanted to tell you I completed the 7 day detox and I feel so great.
I have lost 6lbs, do not feel like I need more my morning coffee, the flushing of my facial skin from rosacea has dramatically reduced and I am so excited to wake up each morning and make a green thickie for breakfast!!
I am a stay at-home, homeschooling momma of 3 littles and at times so busy I would forget to feed myself!
I would go most of the day without eating and then snack on random things.
I gained 60 pounds the last 6 years during pregnancy.
I have lost 30lbs but recently plateaued and have felt so frustrated.
I’ve tried everything from paleo and keto to the point where I didn’t know what to eat or how much and felt like even eating fruit was bad for me which thankfully it’s not!
What a game changer for me. Thank you for sharing a simple but effective program.
I’m so excited to continue another week with this plan! Thankful Stephanie

I’ve tried it and it did work. My hubby said that I slept very soundly ( snoring) hehehe. I have tried the otc stuff to help with sleepibg, but it always left a weird after taste and my mouth dry. I will definitely use this from now on.
Katherine Natalia @ Green Thickies says
Yay! So glad it worked for you!
Laura says
This definitely works but you should be adding the 2 tbls to 8 oz of water. That is the same thing as drinking more water afterward. It is much easier to drink this way. It may smell like vinegar but it definitely tastes like apple cider. Just bitter. Not sweet. The honey is not harmful either. Just use raw honey
Katherine Natalia @ Green Thickies says
Thank you. Good point. I have read since that it is better to consume with more water so I’ll be updating the post with this information. And yes I agree about the honey, but I am vegan also.

Katherine Natalia @ Green Thickies says
Wow that’s really interesting. I have a fitbit too. I’m going to try this!
TRIPTI SHUKLA says
Hell, yeah ! You are totally right, I started taking ACV with warm water and I have slept like a baby ! I know this because I had troubles sleeping whole of this month because I started keto this month, and it causes insomnia. But ACV was so tranquilizing, it works wonders ! I googled this of what is happening, hence so relaxed to find out they people do feel similar effects. :)

After our body spends about 8 hours of fasting in which we devote to rest and sleep, it is logical to believe that what we first consume when we wake up, is quickly absorbed by the body and that’s it, that’s why we want to tell you about the benefits of the apple vinegar fasting.

When I was first introduced to apple cider vinegar when I made the Food Matters movie, I was surprised by its incredible health benefits and even today I am still surprised by this little miraculous elixir. It is a natural worker, cheap and anti-fungal, antibacterial, antiviral, booster of metabolism and immunity, apple cider vinegar has been used for centuries for its positive effects on lifestyle, and I personally, am an advocate of this wonderful vinegar.
