Can apple cider vinegar cause diarrhea?

Apple cider vinegar can potentially cause diarrhea due to its interaction with gut bacteria and the acetic acid it contains. This may indicate an imbalance in your gut microbiome. If you experience this, it’s advisable to reduce your intake or discontinue use. While apple cider vinegar offers benefits for some, it may not be suitable for everyone. For persistent issues, a thorough evaluation, such as a stool analysis, could help identify any significant microbial imbalances. Alternatively, you might try a lower dose or consider using it in pill form to see if it alleviates symptoms.
