Cons:
Smell, Taste isn't so great
I've been using this for about 2 weeks. I first started off with the regular Heinz version which I didn't notice a huge difference. When I finally found the Organic version here in Germany I noticed feeling more energetic, my skin tone looks more glowy. I haven't noticed a huge difference in it's preventing pimples but I will say that this is kind of a laxative...So be prepared for that effect :)
Overall I say try it...You have nothing to lose at this point right?? You will get over the taste after a couple times. Make sure you drink this with water please!!! Not strait out of the bottle...I think you'll be sorry if you do it that way. So will your stomach :)

Pros:
It has definitely helped my skin look both more clear and more even.
Cons:
The taste, smell, and general association. Lets be honest with ourselves, we're drinking vinegar. Also, it feels sort of weirdly acidic in my stomach for a few minutes, plus that awful shivery tingle when taking a big drink.
Firstly, it's awful. I'm not going to lie, it's just terrible at first. I'm going to assume I'll get used to it as I use it for longer than a bit more than a week, but it's not apple juice sweetheart. I make a cup of chamomile tea (all my other teas are some variation of black, and chamomile seems to match best) and dump a bit of organic acv from Trader Joe's in, maybe two or three tbs. I let it get coldish, maybe an hour, just enough so I can chug it. So I have a cup of water next to my tea, chug maybe a third of it while plugging my nose, then be sure to have your water as soon as you can, and seriously, don't unplug your nose until water is in your mouth! Acv in just water's okay too, but I think the tea reduces the gag at the end a bit. I do it twice a day, and I'm going to have to say it is worth it, because really it's like a minute of pain. I also use it as a toner, and my skin is looking much nicer and healthier than usual. So, I'm a begrudging fan.

Pros:
cleared up body acne, feel heathier, no more inflamation on face.
Cons:
taste, smell, some stomach disconfort, may cause stomach, esophagous and mouth burns, bad for teeth.
It didn't do a lot for my face but worked really well on body acne. You have to wait an hour to brush your teeth though so you might as well try it you really have nothing to lose since no one has posted any signs of IB although if your dumb enough not to majorly dilute it and burn your mouth... but seriously, give it a try.

Pros:
-Cheap
-Easy to do
-Effective at preventing/reducing zits
Cons:
-Tastes horrible
I've only been drinking ACV for exactly one (1) week. So far, so good, I guess. The positives so far is that I have not received an initial outbreak. I haven't gotten more than 3 zits or so since using this. The only downside from drinking this is that I seem to get dry, chapped lips and tight, dry skin. The effects have been reduced after taking ACV for a few days.

Pros:
Inexpensive.
Cons:
Smells bad, caused stomach discomfort even though I didn't take it on an empty stomach, possible tooth enamel erosion, caused sourness in throat.
After reading all the positive reviews for ACV both as a drink and as a toner, I decided to try it out. I drank 1-2 tsp of Bragg's ACV mixed in a cup of water every day 3 times a day for 2 months on a non-empty stomach. It did absolutely nothing. In fact, I think it made my acne a little worse. Definitely no improvement. During my last few days of drinking it, I had sourness in my throat all day and that worried me so I stopped drinking it. It also caused some stomach discomfort. I tried using it as a toner as well for a few weeks and that also did nothing.

Pros:
Cheap, clears skin quickly, good for overall health, convenient, actually works!
Cons:
None really, although the acid and teeth issue may be a problem for some.
I'm super super excited about ACV! I have had moderate acne since I was 20, and a few spots during my teenage years. I have tried a large number of different things, including going to a dermatologist which was useless. Finally I decided to give ACV a go. I put in two capfuls into a litre of water, and drink three litres a day. After day one, I saw HUGE improvements in my skin, the acne went down, I was less itchy and I actually looked quite glowy. After a week, I am seeing bigger improvements. Might try using it as a toner next to see if that works for me too. Please go out and try it - for $2 it is super cheap and is worth a go.

Pros:
Cheap, readily available in many countries, worth a try
Cons:
May not work for all people, is very bad for tooth enamel (do not brush your teeth within an hour after drinking it--that just strips the enamel from your teeth!!), can burn the mouth and esophagus if not diluted enough
Firstly, so many reviews here say that people are brushing their teeth immediately after drinking vinegar -- that is the WORST thing you can do. The vinegar softens and erodes your tooth enamel, and right after that is the worst time to scrub your teeth with a brush. This is according to my dentist, who can see brush marks in my tooth enamel from when I would have orange juice for breakfast and then brush my teeth right afterwards (thinking I was doing a good thing for my teeth).
Secondly, don't drink the vinegar straight - put it in a good quantity of water first (like 8 ounces). Too strong a solution can cause mouth and esophagus burns.
Thirdly, apparently vinegar works on people who have some digestion issues or acidity issues internally--which, it is said (I don't know if it's true), can cause secondary acne if your body chemistry is screwed up. The people who do not have those issues and who have acne for other reasons might not find any relief when using vinegar.

Pros:
Helps with acne but mainly it contributes to a good health.. And cheap
Cons:
I used to hate the taste but after a month or so I got used to it and now I actually enjoy it.,,
Worth it. :) Just be very careful with the amount... To little water and I can guarantee you that it will taste completely awful.

Pros:
organic, natural, contributes to good health
Cons:
smell, taste, weakens tooth enamel
I don't drink ACV religiously like some people (I used to have it 2x/day) but I do have a shot diluted with water every now and then. I don't know how much it helps my skin but I feel good after I drink it.
