Apple cider vinegar (like any other vinegar) is extremely acidic in the stomach. The liver must immediately turn against the vinegar and use all its reserves to try to alkalize or at least neutralize it. The acidic nature of apple cider vinegar is so strong that the stomach loses the battle for neutrality. Instead of alkalizing your gut, vinegar does the opposite. Vinegar weakens the hydrochloric acid and breaks down the gastric juices, so the stomach is still acidic.
