Medicinal use of apple cider: A historical compendium

Öz

The internal and external use of apple cider has a long tradition in folk medicine for the treatment and prophylaxis of several human and veterinary disorders. In Europe, we find multiple historical examples for its medical application. Cider was part of the early therapy of scurvy before lemons became the first line naval prophylaxis and treatment due to better stability. In Germany, Johann Christian Wilhelm Petsch (1804-1882) and Rudolph Weil (1841-?) recommended apple cider, pure and mixed with water and milk, as a medicine of universal potency in humans. They treated all kind of illnesses related to the blood cycle, nerve system and skeletal system. Cider was suggested to be particularly useful when applied regularly. It was recommended to cure heart conditions, arthritis, asthma, insomnia, gout, cough, hay fever, and many other complaints. Beside the internal use, cider was applied externally. The diuretic action of cider made it a highly reputed drug in a time, when therapy was mainly based on the principles of humoral pathology. The considerable amount of ascorbic acid contained in the beverage might explain its medicinal use from a more rational point of view. Today, apple cider is less commonly used for medicinal purposes, although it is widely known as a beverage.
