Good bacteria: an ally for your health
Have you heard that there are good bacteria for your health? Archie will explain why this is true, and how apple cider vinegar can help you stay healthy.
40 billion bacteria in our body
Before we start, a number: 40 billion. That's a lot, yes... but that's at least the number of bacteria in each of our bodies. Especially in our intestines. This is what we call the intestinal microbiota.
The importance of the intestinal microbiota
Scientific research has shown that a healthy microbiota protects us from disease. It also has a significant impact on our mental health. To keep it in tip-top shape, prevent disease, and strengthen our immune system, it's important to diversify our sources of good bacteria (more on the microbiota here).
Archie: a vinegar rich in good bacteria
Archie is taking part in this fight because with him, we offer a quality cider vinegar whose presence of good bacteria has been scientifically confirmed (2019 study).
A strong biological commitment
Regarding the organic aspect, we firmly believe that not offering organic products (with or without a label!) in the 21st century is heresy! But it's even crazier when you consider that apples are among the fruits most exposed to pesticides.
Unpasteurized to preserve life
Unpasteurized. Pasteurization is the heating process that kills all bacteria. Vinegar is inherently antibacterial. Therefore, pasteurization is of no benefit other than aesthetics. Not using this process allows us to avoid killing the mother of Archie apple cider vinegar (which would be far too cruel). This mother is naturally formed during the fermentation process. Unfiltered. Not filtering apple cider vinegar allows our product to retain all of its authenticity. No two Archie bottles are the same. In fact, from one bottle to the next, the deposit, which ensures that all the benefits are preserved, will take on a different appearance. Its color will also vary slightly.
So consuming Archie means consuming life, it means varying your sources of good bacteria to live a looooong time in excellent health.
