Anyways, he had said that sometimes people who do not have enough acid in their stomachs, will have food sit longer that most people since it is not digesting well. Because of this, the food basically rots in your tummy/esophogas and that causes pain similar to acid indigestion. Hence, by adding something aciding it lowers the pH in your stomach and helps digest food better. I'm not sure how true that was, but it in a way made sense! If the vinegar didn't help, maybe just adding a glass of milk to your meal could help up the pH (basically doing the opposite of the vinegar) if it is an acid problem?
