I am really going to need to try the pulled pork.
I like this recipe quite a bit (do you have a slow cooker?).

Yay!
OT, but your eye makeup is so pretty!4 -
It's great with honey and warm water as a gargle for sore throat.
Not so great as a weight loss supplement. It's even worse if your using it like the master cleanse.1 -
I wouldn't use Apple Cider Vinegar for weight loss. It's good for salad dressings - as other people have said.
I'd even stay away from cleanses. I remember when they were all the rage and asked my bariatric surgeon's office about it. The doctor's office said if detox's or cleanses were worth anything, they'd have said so. They don't believe there's anything to them helpful to weight loss.1 -

You don't need to "eat clean" to lose weight either.1 -

^She's right!
All you need is to eat at your calories for weight loss. Feel like chocolate? Go for it! I know I would have given up long ago if I had cut out my beloved.
And yes, OP..you are super pretty! I, too, like your eye make up!3 -
I used it to help with severe acid reflux, it *seemed* to help. Did it for a good solid stretch in the mornings. Used Bragg's, some lemon juice, ginger juice, cinnamon, cayenne and enough water to fill a tall glass. I did not use honey or any sweetener, 'cause I'm a tough hombre. A few times I added turmeric too. Decided no one was tough enough for that. Made sure to drink with a straw to avoid having it slosh around on my teeth, the warnings about tooth enamel are for real. I haven't done it in awhile except a couple times when I had acid reflux flare ups and yes it did work then too.
Mostly I suspect my cessation of acid reflux symptoms has more to do with smaller portions and dropping some weight via CICO but anything to get me off of daily use of antacids had me jumping for joy. I now mostly use apple cider vinegar as an occasional recipe ingredient. Works great for boiled eggs, put a teaspoon in the boil and you can peel them much better when done. Also tasty in curries and stews. And a must for BBQ pulled pork.
Didn't do jack for weight loss or if it did it was way overshadowed by being in a calorie deficit.

I've used it for reflux as well... it did help that. Honestly, I like the flavor it added to ice water. However, I did discover that it can be a natural laxative if too much consumed. Be careful2

Read Jason Fung's book, "The Obesity Epidemic". It has several references to medical studies that he says shows that ACV does help in weight loss. It is supposed to reduce insulin levels significantly. All these people say no but don't back it up with anything. It is much easier to get down mixing it with tart cherry juice.
For sure a calorie deficit will work every time, but that doesn't mean other things can't help.-1 -
It worked for a week then it just stopped. I think it just revs up ur metabolism but after your body gets use to it, it stops working, that is just my theory. I still take it once everyday with water to balance my hormones.-1

It does not rev up metabolism either, and it does not balance hormones. You were most likely experiencing natural fluctuations because the only way to lose weight is to eat at a calorie deficit.9 -

That's not how this works. Claims brought up without evidence can summarily dismissed without evidence. The burden of proof is on those who make unfounded claims to provide the proper evidence to support those claims and not the other way around.
As for ACV, hey no harm in enjoying it on your fries like I do but I don't expect it to be anything more than a delicious condiment.12
