Benefits of Raw apple Cider Vinegar??

I've heard of it being helpful with blood pressure, but I don't believe its possible that it causes weight loss......

I've heard it does have health benefits, but my biggest concern is the acid in vinegar is horrible for your teeth.

I just used it to unclog a massively clogged shower drain**. Two applications and the drain is draining like new again.

Does this really work? How much did you use? LOL

I've been told (and researched it for myself...which I suggest you do as well), 1 capful (tablespoon roughly) in 1 cup of water before meals will help you feel fuller faster so you don't overeat. you can also take the tablespoon like a shot and then drinking the water. That prevents any acid on your teeth. I've tried it but I would forget a lot so I'm not sure how effective it is but I know people who do it.

That really works on the drain!? Do you just pour it down straight?

Any weak acid will work.
Vinegar, coke, lemon juice...
When I worked as an electrician on slabs, we used to pour coke down any conduits that got cement in them by accident.
24 hours later they were clear...true story.

A whole bottle (a pint, essentially) and yes, I poured the vinegar down the drain, let it sit for 15 mins. Then I poured baking soda down the drain (half a box), let that sit for 15 minutes, and then rinsed with cold water for 5 mins. Works like a charm!

I love vinegar and I am starting to take a teaspoon at least once daily. If you google the benefits of apple cider vinegar you will see it's very benefical for your body. Some people put it in their water but since I love it I just drink it.

I just drink it because I like it. I dilute it with water and salt and drink it on ice.

While I was experiencing a major GI issue last month I had several people swear by Apple Cider Vinegar with the mother as a helpful digestive aid. I did research and it is supposed to help with the amount of acid in your stomach that breaks down food (HCL). It is also supposed to assist with acid reflux but I did not read in my hours of research anything about weight loss. If she had low HCL and her food was not digesting properly, this could be what is doing the trick, especially if the weight is off her tummy.

BTW, many people go on special diets and do things to lose weight and straight up lie about it. She could very well be doing something else and just not wanting to tell you.

I started taking it for my skin, and didn't notice any difference really, I felt like I had more energy, but I don't know if that was more of a placebo effect. I diluted it down in a LOT of water and drank it through a straw. I ultimately never noticed anything with my weight or eating less, and it didn't work that great of wonders for my skin so really how bad it is for your teeth and the awful taste, I just stopped. However, its only like $3 a bottle, so its really not all that much lost if you're interested in trying it. I've heard it works well to take during cold/flu season, so I may start back up with taking it in the morning, not really sure, it didn't taste that great. I will say it um, makes you more regular though.

I don't know if you can really say that it causes weight loss, or if people look it up for health benefits and change their lifestyle to being more healthy at the same time they start taking it.
