Apple cider vinegar is made from crushed apples that are left to ferment, first into alcohol and secondly into acetic acid. Aeration may speed up this process for commercial production. Apple cider vinegar found on your grocery shelf is most often pasteurized, a process of heating the vinegar to remove potentially harmful bacteria such as E. coli. Apple cider vinegar is available in its unpasteurized state at many health stores. Marketers of unpasteurized vinegar argue that pasteurizing removes the health benefits. They state that the true health gems lie in the enzymes found in the bacterial sludge, also known as "the mother," that forms in vinegar.
