When it comes to health and wellness, every detail matters—including packaging. At Dr. Patkar’s, we are committed to delivering the highest-quality apple cider vinegar (ACV) while ensuring its purity, potency, and safety. One of the key decisions we made was to package our ACV in glass bottles instead of plastic. But why? Let’s explore the reasons behind this conscious choice.
1. Preserving Purity: No Chemical Leaching.
Apple cider vinegar is naturally acidic, with a pH of around 2 to 3. This acidity can break down plastic over time, leading to the release of harmful chemicals like:
- BPA (Bisphenol A) – A synthetic compound that can interfere with hormonal balance.
- Phthalates – Chemicals that may affect the endocrine system and metabolism.
- Microplastics – Tiny plastic particles that could contaminate your vinegar and, ultimately, your body.
Glass, on the other hand, is completely non-reactive, ensuring that your ACV remains free from toxins and safe for consumption.

2. Protecting the “Mother” and Nutrients
Dr. Patkar’s ACV is raw, unfiltered, and unpasteurized, containing the beneficial “mother”—a rich blend of proteins, enzymes, and gut-friendly bacteria.
Plastic bottles can slightly permeate oxygen, leading to oxidation and a potential loss of beneficial nutrients. Glass creates an airtight seal, keeping your ACV fresh, active, and potent for longer.
