I just turn the bottle down and pour it in for a few seconds. Probably about a half a cup. It's good for all animals. I even drink some every morning for my 2 arthritic fingers that hurt sometimes. It really helps them. There are sometimes I cannot even bend them and that's not good for a hand milker. So the vinegar really helps me too. I can tell if I don't drink it. And I drink it straight from the bottle too.

hi ingrid, i thought i would add other things it helps with. we use it to balance human and livestock ph. foods eaten can cause ph to get acidic. it also helps animals with rumens. it helps the bacteria in there grow nice and strong. it is filled with natural live enzymes and bacteria. recommended to me from my aunt, is 1 tblsp. to a glass warm water and bit of raw honey for people. it helps when a girl is sick with many things. i feed the live raw to all my stock. so beyond worming it is a fine tonic. belle loves hers. we keep it in the plastic livestock tanks. in summer we have no algae to have to clean. hope this helps some. happy days sherrye
