Apple Cider Vinegar Caramel Dip: Sweet Comfort With Benefits
Craving caramel apples? This healthier twist gives you the same flavor with none of the refined sugar or sticky mess. The secret ingredient? Apple cider vinegar (ACV).
Blend pitted dates, almond butter, and a splash of ACV for a naturally sweet, tangy caramel dip that’s rich in fiber and iron.
Why ACV Helps PMS:

How to Snack Smarter During PMS (Without Missing the Fun)
Halloween is full of temptations, but a few smart swaps can help you keep your body — and mood — in balance.
Quick Tips:
- Don’t skip meals. Keeping your blood sugar steady reduces mood swings.
- Pair carbs with protein. It slows sugar absorption and keeps you satisfied.
- Hydrate often. Water, herbal tea, or electrolyte drinks ease bloating.
- Limit processed candy. Opt for fruit-based sweets or PumPums for a clean, functional fix.
- Listen to your cravings. They’re messages, not mistakes — chocolate = magnesium, salty = sodium.
