    I think this article does a good job of outlining why people have continued to believe it's helpful and what the research actually suggests you do with the vinegar. I think it takes some science literacy to look at the raw papers, but i like that there is a link to them if you want to read for yourself.

    I don't have a dog in the race, but wanted to give some sources if you want to look into it further. In any event, good luck with your efforts!

    Vinegar is great on french fries (a Canadian thing) & on fish but there is no evidence of it having any impact on weight loss (contrary to what the con artists would have you think).

    Is it only a Canadian thing? I guess I just figured everyone did it but I am Canadian soooo....

    We used to have salt and vinegar hot chips in Australia in the 80s. Not sure if anyone still does here.

    Mmmm, now I want some.

    I'm currently sick with shingles, which is really unpleasant. But I had a good (if painful) laugh yesterday - while looking at YouTube videos about shingles, I saw several titled "cure your shingles with ACV". I can't even read about my illness without some ACV woo!

    It would help me more to drink 16 oz of vinegar right after a meal... bc I would puke up all the food I ate before I got any of the calories...
    In seriousness, CICO helps with weight loss, not vinegar (ACV or any other type). Everyone wants a magic bullet, but science hasn't found one yet and probably never will.

    It's great for dyeing eggs and de-scaling my coffee maker.

    I use white vinegar to clean my kettle

    It's very popular in the UK too, with salt.
