Vinegar in all its various flavors -- apple cider, wine, rice, malt and more -- is a tasty ingredient to cook with, but it also has several medical uses, including cough relief, topical treatment for insect bites and, perhaps, as an aid for weight loss. Larry Santora, M.D., reviews the healthy properties of the many types of vinegar already in your kitchen cupboard. (Video footage courtesy Super King Markets.)
