I don't normally post but I have taken ACV, I drank a shot of it strait for about 6 months everyday. I know it didn't help me to lose any weight, but it really helped the dark circles under my eyes go away, and I'm pretty sure drinking it was the reason I had to get 11 cavities filled at the dentist. Seriously don't drink this stuff everyday it will wreck your teeth! In my experience it is the best thing you can use to get rid of blackheads, ashy skin, dull hair and dandruff, just put it in a spray bottle or apply it to your face with a cotton ball, seriously it works great and its cheaper than face wash.

I've tried it before. It's got a terrible tasts in my oppinon so I just take a shot of it in the morning and wash it down with water. I've noticed on days that I take it, I feel less hungry through the day. I've recently started adding the shot to a bottle of water and drinking it through the day and that works too. I use the Mothers brand which I've read a few places is the one to buy. Got it at my local grocery store in the salad dressing isle. It's really inexpensive and the most you'll lose if it doesn't work is like $4. Also I've been considering cutting up cucumbers and putting them in the vinigar as another form of taking it! Good luck!

My mom used to call this the hay maker's drink during the summer. it helps replenish your body after working out in the sun. i've taken in the past 2tsp braggs acv with 12oz water and 1tsp honey before every meal and 1st thing in morning. it helps curb my appetite, lose weight, joints don't hurt as bad and acid reflux is gone. it also seems to pull fat out of the system and out through poop. i need to start doing this again. it made me feel so much better

I take it for acid reflux. Believe it or not, it works wonders. I've also used it when I've had colds to clear congestion. I have no idea about helping with appetite.

Is this for real? It sounds too good to be true!

Never used either for weight loss. But I use coconut oil often as skin moisturizer. I can tell you both of these can cure a yeast infection without drugs though

bump... I'm interested in reading the replies. I have heard many stories about how ACV helps with weight loss but have yet to see one be proven.

I started drinking about 1-2 tbs of organic, cold pressed, coconut oil (bought at ebay) every day and I drink 2-3 tbs of organic acv (raw with the mother) like a lemonade: mixed in a large cup of water with honey( u could do less, to taste). I noticed i started to lose volume around my waist! not sure which one is doing it, or if the combination of both helps, i do use the raw stuff that still contains all the natural goodies the natural fruit has to give...maybe that's what helps? I hope this keeps up, i will start working out with it and hope to tone up nicely soon

I just started taking coconut oil four days ago, and noticed my belly fat reducing within two days. I had heard of the benefits of coconut oil for years but couldn't bring myself to actually EAT it straight--just the thought of it made me gag. However, my pants have gotten tight around the waist recently, so I decided the discomfort was greater than the momentary pain of eating coconut oil. To my surprise, the oil made me feel good, not yucky. I don't even WANT chocolates or cookies. I bought my favorite pack of cookies from Trader Joe's, opened it in the car, and didn't even enjoy the first one. It tasted like sweet cardboard. I closed the bag up and put it in the pantry, where it's sat untouched. I naturally eat less. It's only been four days, but my pants button easily already. I've been taking one to two tablespoons a day, when I can remember. I'll try to increase the dose. I've read that it helps Alzheimer patients regain their mental function. They take two tablespoons three times a day. Don't take it too late at night because it does rev you up. I'm much more sensitive to the caffeine in my morning coffee now.

A thread started in Feb 2012, awesome. My understanding of Virgin (EVOO) olive oil it is squeezed longer then standard oil(meaning it is placed in a machine with a blatter, then expands and puts pressure on the outer drum to extract more fluid). Health benefits, minimal between standard olive oil and EVOO.
