Can Apple Cider Vinegar Treat Gout?

Apple cider vinegar is a sour liquid made from fermented apple products. Many people believe that it is a cure-all for a variety of health conditions, including gout, and some research does suggest that it could be beneficial.

Checkup Denver: LGBTQ health care barriers, kratom ban for minors and more Colorado health news

Now, researchers at the Université Laval in Canada believe they have found their own magic combo. Dubbed the “satiating diet” and touted as a hybrid of the Mediterranean and keto diets, it supports weight loss and good health, and doesn’t require extreme measures, proponents say. I looked into it, and here's what I found. What is the satiating diet?

Colorado town bans underage sale of herbal supplement kratom

A town south of Denver has banned the sale of the herbal supplement kratom to anyone under the age of 18. The Denver Post reports the Castle Rock town council approved an ordinance Tuesday that imposes a $300 fine on anyone caught selling the substance to minors. The town late last year imposed a six-month moratorium on the licensing of any new kratom shops while new rules were established.

But the Food and Drug Administration says it exposes users to the risks of addiction, abuse and dependence. Read more at The Denver Channel.
