Let’s set the record straight.

Apple cider vinegar isn’t the heart-health hack it’s often made out to be.

1. There’s no evidence it removes plaque or reverses heart disease.
2. Any benefit from drinking it daily is small and indirect.
3. Overuse can irritate the stomach and damage tooth enamel. Never drink it undiluted.

If you’re looking to improve your heart health this year, let’s have a conversation. New patients welcome. Visit PCCmn.com to schedule a consultation online.

Apple cider vinegar had its moment in 2025, but the science should keep expectations grounded.

Based on research, the heart-health benefits appear indirect, and results vary. If it helps at all, it works only as a small addition to an already healthy routine. Used incorrectly, it can irritate the stomach and damage tooth enamel.

Yes, but don’t make relying on it part of your New Year’s resolution.

Apple cider vinegar may offer small heart health benefits, mainly through modest effects on blood sugar and cholesterol. However, it’s not a cure, and it won’t replace consistent, healthy habits.

Some holiday favorites taste great but are tougher on your heart than you think.

Here’s why these four top the list:

1. Eggnog: High in saturated fat and added sugars
that can raise cholesterol and blood sugar.
2. Rolls & bread: Packed with sodium that can
push blood pressure up.
3. Mixed drinks: Sugary mixers plus alcohol
increase strain on heart rhythm and blood
pressure.
4. Holiday cookies: Fast calories that contribute to
weight gain and higher heart disease risk.

On the flip side, there are holiday staples you should lean into. Read our latest blog for more: https://bit.ly/49rkxY4

Yes, and often for preventable reasons.

Rushed routines, rich meals, skipped sleep, and increased alcohol consumption can put extra pressure on your heart. Slowing down, eating mindfully, and recognizing warning signs can make a meaningful difference.

From the bottom of our hearts, we wish you a holiday season filled with joy, gratitude, and good health.

Thank you to our patients and our team for the trust and care that defined this year.

Our clinic will be closed the afternoon of December 24 and the full day on December 25 and January 1. We look forward to supporting your heart health in the year ahead.

12/23/2025

The best holiday choices are often the simplest.

Skip the pre-dinner grazing and save room for the foods that actually fuel you. Load your plate with vegetables first, enjoy your favorites in smaller portions, and let the main meal be the main event. Your heart will thank you.

The right fiber protects your heart. The wrong fiber can hold it back.

Skip the shortcuts. Added fibers in packaged foods might boost the label, but not your heart health. The best choices still come from whole, plant-based foods that work in balance with your body.

Fiber isn’t one-size-fits-all.

Whole-food fiber works in harmony with other nutrients to lower cholesterol, support your gut, and protect your heart. Added fiber from foods like processed cereals and packaged treats can’t do the same, and can be damaging to your heart because they lack the natural nutrients, antioxidants, and plant compounds that make whole foods protective.

Get the facts on which fibers your heart loves in our latest blog post: https://www.pccmn.com/single-post/the-dangers-of-the-wrong-fiber

Yes, it can. Not all fiber is created equal, and quality matters just as much as quantity.

Added fibers, like inulin or chicory root fiber, can make a nutrition label look better, but don’t deliver the same heart-healthy benefits as fiber from real foods. Whole-food fiber helps lower cholesterol, balance blood sugar, and nourish your microbiome.
