Vinegar is difficult for the liver to process and if vinegar is consumed in large quantities it can damage the liver. I would not drink it.
I did not know that. The odd thing about it is that I do have liver problems. I wonder if it's been caused by years of vinegar drinking or if it's heriditary.

Nope;not drunk,
and not "Always" done,maybe 20-30% of my posts.
People often edit the threads.

Sorry if I annoy you/others with this "quirk". :beer:
My favorite sources of vinegar flavor:

I am serious and am not playing a game with you. I know several people with cirrosis of the liver. Each of them experience liver pains after eating food cooked with vinegar. Their families make a point not to use vinegar in any home-cooked food because of this.
I am not sure of the specific properties of vinegar but I do know that only healthy livers can process vinegar without problems.
EDIT: My statement is incorrect. What I do know is that damaged livers have difficulty processing vinegar.
I am also not sure how vinegar may assist the liver and who may make such claims, so you may possess information I do not. The claims stating vinegar assists the liver may assume the liver is healthy instead of already damaged. I am not sure.
I had not considered the possibility that some people may consider vinegar to be helpful to the liver so I performed the following google searches to verify.
I find that numerous people do believe vinegar to be good for the body and I found a few sites that appear to caution against drinking too much vinegar but stop short before actually saying so or explaining why.
It does appear that vinegar serves as a good detoxifier for the body if the vinegar is consumed in small amounts.
Unfortunately, the sites that appear to caution against drinking too much vinegar are not medically or scientifically reliable. This may be because this issue has slipped through the cracks of modern science due to being classified as either commonly understood or unable to verify.
It is true that foods cooked in vinegar are very tasty and this supports the common understanding that vinegar in small amounts is helpful to the body. I have learned from personal experience that consuming vinegar physically hurts people who have damaged livers. If you, the OP, question this and you have liver problems, drink some vinegar as normal but hopefully in a much smaller quantity. Then give consideration to your liver afterwards and see if it hurts.

What I learned from this search is that vinegar is very useful in detoxifying and cleaning the body, when the vinegar is consumed in small amounts. It seems that consuming vinegar in large amounts is harmful to the body and this would be logical, but this has not been proven. However, if someone possesses liver problems and vinegar consumption causes liver pain, then it would be logical to decrease vinegar consumption. The connection between the vinegar consumption and liver pain needs to be recognized first though.

Wow, now that was a thorough response. That was better written than term papers I have turned it.
Thank you.
By the way, it seems that most sites that refer to vinegar and positive benefits are talking about APPLE CIDER vinegar.
I still haven't completed figured out how white-distilled vinegar is made. One site says, it is " made by the acetic fermentation of dilute distilled alcohol."
How is "dilute distilled alcohol" made? Alcohol is, obviously, not good for the liver.
I just made an invention...a new 'cereal' if you will.
