The phrase “removes inflammation” is an oversimplified claim. While vinegar contains acetic acid and other compounds that are being studied, it is not medically accurate to say vinegar alone can “dry out” or eliminate systemic inflammation. Chronic inflammation is more strongly shaped by diet quality, sleep, stress load, gut health, weight management, and physical activity. If you use vinegar, treat it as a small habit within safe limits—not as an anti-inflammatory treatment. If you suspect a medical condition, professional evaluation is the priority.
