Are your teeth starting to look a little on the yellow side? Try rubbing apple cider vinegar directly on them before rinsing with water. It's a super quick way to whiten teeth on the spot.

If the taste of apple cider vinegar doesn't make you gag, you can add 1 to 2 teaspoons of it to a glass of water and drink the concoction several times a day as an all-around health tonic that benefits your digestion, energy level, lymphatic system, and more.

For non-edible uses, you can also use this magical kitchen staple to make your dishwasher run more efficiently, keep the neighborhood cats away from your flower beds, clean your toilet, repel fleas, kill annoying fruit flies, add shine to your hair, and more.

And if for some reason you don't have any apple cider vinegar in your kitchen, there are many extraordinary uses for white vinegar, too!
