So I've heard before that vinegar and apple cider vinegar can be helpful in weight loss, but had never tried it. I tried it last night and this morning I am 3 lbs lighter. So I'm thinking it must have helped with water retention. I was just wondering if anyone else knows any other benefits of taking vinegar before or after meals.

    I am currently taking coconut oil as it's very good for lots of things,including weight loss.
    Apple cider vinegar has very good results for aiding in weight loss

    hi guys, okay so if i remember this correctly apple cider viniger does help curb your hunger. your sappose to have it about 15-20 before each meal, if you can handle the tast its 1-2 tsps if not you can always buy the capsuls at any health food store or online. as for how great it works, i personaly dont know but i've read plenty of great things and have wanted to try it. maybe eventually i will, who knows.
    well good luck ladies, and remember dont give up!!

    Well, I would not personally be a fan of chugging vinegar, but the reason the French eat a light salad with vinaigrette after the main course is that vinegar aids in digestion.

    Chugging vinegar breaks one of my rules: enjoy everything I eat and drink.

    I have read on the internet adding small amounts of apple cider vinegar ( only apple cider vinegar ) for what ever reason will increase calories burnt through exercise. Whether this is true or not i am not sure but i do do it and have done it in the past when i have lost weight. I'm sure if one would search Google something would come up. I often in the morning mix a drink of lule warm water about a 1/2 cup with a tea spoon of cayenne pepper and some apple cider vinegar with a squeeze of juice from a lemon. this is an excellent cleanse for your liver and will help in weight loss. The cayenne helps as a digestive aid as well.

    I diluted about 1 tablespoon in water and drank it with my last meal of the day. The things I read say you can do it with each meal and it helps with appetite and to keep insulin levels down. I do have problems with insulin levels, so maybe it is worth to try it with each meal or eat a salad with a vigegarette dressing at meals.
