Has anyone tried....

Did you hear about that on Dr Ozz?
I seriously doubt that anything in those ingredients is a solution to be a weight loss booster. I have read about usine cider vinegar and lemon juice as household cleaning agents, however.

Seriously, if you think it will have a benefit, go ahead and mix up a tonic and try it for a few weeks and see for yourself if it helped you or not.

Anecdotally speaking ...
I put cinnamon powder in my oatmeal every day and wouldn't want to get too much of it, so I won't be adding it to the water I drink. I'm not crazy about cayenne pepper on its own but love spicy food, so I put it and other harch (bitter, hot) spices into my cooking for many of my menus. Thus, won't be adding any to my drinks of that either.
On most days I have a salad either as lunch or as dinner ... not usually just a side salad of iceberg lettuce, but a salad chock full of many vegetables and love to dress them with either apple cider vinegar or lemon juice ... so don't feel I need to be getting any more from a drink.

However ... that said, there is nothing as refreshing to me as drinking a cup or two of water that was boiled with a lemon cut up into it. I usually sweeten that a little bit with a teaspoon or two of honey.
good luck if you try it. Post back how it worked for you if you do.

Thank you Nikion. I did not hear it from Dr Ozz but actually from a co worker who says its been working for her and "some people she knows". I googled it last night and basically the ingredients in itself provide some benefits that help boost metabolism and burn fat (the ACV, lemon and cinnamon). Overall I learned theu google that it cant hurt but rather help our bodies in various ways, so Im giving it a try. I was just wondering if anyone here has tried it.

Let us know how it works. You probably need to get the Braggs apple cider vinegar. It tastes a little better. Exercise has boosted my metabolism.

You read the wrong stuff on Google. This will do nothing, and by nothing, I mean absolutely nothing to boost your metabolism.

There has not be any research conducted that has shown that this is an effective way to boost your metabolism. Plus that sounds gross!

Most of those concoctions include maple syrup or honey to make it taste better, which would add calories. Other than that, probably all placebo effect/not likely to boost your metabolism. Some people swear by it and ACV in general so as long as it's not adding cals, it can't hurt.

Enough cayenne pepper to boost your metabolism is enough to make you regret your entire life.

I heard about it from the guy who posted on here after trying it and woke up in the middle of the night, uncontrollably spraying liquid feces all over himself, his bed and his girlfriend. True story.

If you have a story like that too, I really want you to report back.

I often wonder why world governments aren't curing the obesity epidemic and saving billions of £/$ in obesity related healthcare problems by just giving people apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, cinnamon powder and cayenne pepper.

I take ACV pills if I feel like I'm retaining water/bloated. It seems to help shed the water quickly. I also take cinnamon pills everynight. I had read that it can help control blood sugar levels (I'm hypo-glycemic) and figured it wouldn't hurt to try it. It helps me. Not in loosing weight, but in other areas.
