Timing Guide: When to Take Sea Buckthorn Juice and Apple Cider Vinegar

If you take both, a practical timing is sea buckthorn juice with or after breakfast and apple cider vinegar later in the day with a meal, in separate glasses of water, so you are not taking two acidic drinks together. There is no proven best time for either.

Principles for timing

  • Space them out. Leave a few hours between the two, and not back to back.
  • Pair with food. Taking them with or after a meal is gentler on the stomach.
  • Keep teeth in mind. Avoid spreading acidic drinks through the whole day. Rinse after each.
  • Be consistent. The same times each day make a routine easier to keep.

Sample schedule

  1. Breakfast: 15 ml sea buckthorn juice (10 ml if new) in a glass of water.
  2. Lunch or dinner: 15 ml apple cider vinegar in a 250 ml glass of water, or as a salad dressing.
  3. After each: rinse your mouth with plain water.

If you have a sensitive stomach

Take each after food, use more water, and start with 5 to 10 ml. If heartburn or nausea occurs, stop and speak to your doctor.

If you get reflux

Avoid taking either close to bedtime, and speak to a doctor before using them at all, since both are acidic.

Can I take them at the same time?

You can, but we suggest spacing them. See can you take both together?

What timing will not do

No timing makes these products a treatment or guarantees a result. They are foods. A calm, consistent habit matters more than the exact minute.
