Brief Answer:
Cider vinegar will... but....

Detailed Answer:
isn't any better or worse than any other acidifying agent. Except it IS pretty easy to get, cheap, and reliable. and safe. Mostly. Water and acidifying agents do NOT have to be taken to extreme. And too much of it can make you sick. If you can get a urine pH testing strip then a pH of below 6 is quite acidic. About 1 small glass of cider 2-3 times a day should be enough. And a decent amoutn of fluid but never more than 2 gallon a day, and 1 gallon a day is plenty.
Mainly 1) don't do any more and 2) 6 days is a fairly long time and mostly would be long enough.
