Apple Cider Vinegar and Ulcers: Doctor Warns Against Excessive Consumption A recent video by a Ukrainian doctor, Dr. Vasyl Ornat, has highlighted the potential risks associated with excessive consumption of apple cider vinegar. The video, uploaded on June 10th, 2025, responds to a viewer's comment about a person who experienced an ulcer after drinking apple cider vinegar. "I know a man who drank apple cider vinegar, and he developed an ulcer," the viewer commented. Dr. Ornat, in his response, cautioned against excessive vinegar intake, stating that while it might be consumed in moderation, large quantities could potentially harm the stomach lining. He stressed the importance of regular check-ups, particularly if gastrointestinal issues are present. He recommended procedures such as gastroscopy or colonoscopy for diagnosis. Dr. Ornat's video serves as a reminder of the importance of balanced diets and regular health screenings. While apple cider vinegar has many purported health benefits, moderation is key, and any concerning symptoms should prompt a visit to a healthcare professional.
