Only in recipes when required. Why, does it have some new magical properties?3
-
Nope, it's not a short cut or a secret weapon for weight loss. Is there some sort of media blitz?3
-
I use it as salad dressing and I lost 25kgs.1
-
I read somewhere where it can help with weight lose but also has other benefits for health like lowering cholesterol and maintain blood sugar levels if diabetic1
-
Ive heard it can help shut down your kidneys in the event of a surprise drug test, or so I've heard. But no, unless it magically induces a caloric deficit then it won't do anything. Just settle in for the long haul and enjoy the progress you get to make.1

It does not help with weight loss. If you have high cholesterol or are diabetic I would discuss using it with your doctor because those are medical issues.5

@dawndionisi can i ask where you read this? ACV threads pop up here nearly every day, is Facebook etc being flooded with articles about it?1 -
No I think I heard about through shape magazine0

It has zero effect on weight loss. Plain and simple.0

Nothing magical happens when you let apple juice ferment.5
-
Wouldn't fermented grapes be the same thing?7

Me neither, and it tastes revolting, not to mention the damage it can do to your teeth.
I transferred my bottle from the kitchen to the shower and rinse my hair with it sometimes. I did use it as a toner on my face a few times, but I'm still scarred by the experience of chugging it down that whenever a drop accidentally got on my lips and in my mouth i got shuddering flashbacks
so stopped doing that pretty quick!! 0 -

Unfortunately there is a thread started several times a week about ACV so many people do have a bit of fun with the woo. Nothing personal. I haven't posted my hot bacon dressing recipe lately. Might do that again soon. Favorite thing to make with ACV.3 -
Find CORRECT information on the forums here. I can promise you'll get straight up answers to the latest fads that are out there.dawndionisi wrote: »No I think I heard about through shape magazine

Not exactly a peer reviewed website. Care to share a link showing proper scientific studies?1 -
David Wolfe is an idiot. I'm sorry, but I don't trust anything that man says.7

Apple Cider Vinegar does a lot of things that are fantastic. To say it does nothing for weight loss is just an uninformed statement. I can post over 30 pro ACV sites. You should never just taste a swig of it because it will burn your mouth, esophagus and can choroid your teeth. You mix it with water and lemon/honey, put a tablespoon in herbal tea, put it on your salad, coleslaw. 2 tablespoons a day does so much good for your body. https://authoritynutrition.com/6-proven-health-benefits-of-apple-cider-vinegar/ http://www.rd.com/health/wellness/apple-cider-vinegar-benefits/ http://www.webmd.com/diet/obesity/features/apple-cider-vinegar-and-health#1 http://mamavation.com/2015/01/25-ways-apple-cider-vinegar-will-change-life.html http://www.naturallivingideas.com/drinking-apple-cider-vinegar-benefits/ https://draxe.com/apple-cider-vinegar-uses/ http://www.health.com/nutrition/apple-cider-vinegar-benefits http://www.cosmopolitan.com/health-fitness/a48500/apple-cider-vinegar-benefits/ http://www.healthyandnaturalworld.com/health-benefits-of-apple-cider-vinegar-and-honey/4

Are any of those peer reviewed studies possibly leading up to a meta-analysis?

So Cosmopolitan magazine is now posting peer-reviewed studies? Yeah, no.
I can buy a website and post anything I want.

It helps me sleep better, it helps control my blood sugar, and it gives me energy! The more BRAGG'S Organic Raw ACV with the mother I have, the better I feel! And YES, it does help with weight loss! The video in the link above explains why.
I have worked up to having 2 tablespoons ACV, 1/2 lemon, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper in a glass of water first thing in the morning; at night, about an hour before bed, I have 1 T ACV with 1/2 lemon, but no cayenne. If needed, you can also add some honey for flavor, but I never needed/wanted that. Raw, unprocessed honey is the healthiest. I recommend the brand Really Raw Honey (in a glass jar, rather than plastic).
BE SURE TO RINSE YOUR TEETH WITH JUST PLAIN WATER VERY WELL AFTERWARDS because of the acidity!1 -

@mjpreece1 -- just because a video says something doesn't mean it actually does what they say.
I could make a youtube video saying that eating Fajita seasoning caused me to stop absorbing fat in my food, but that doesn't make me right
@Look_Its_Kriss -- You're absolutely right, but you should watch the video before you comment!
It's a very reliable science-based source by a licensed physician and internationally recognized speaker on nutrition, food safety, and public health issues. The website also ensures that the research results are appropriately disseminated to the medical profession. Had you watched the video, you would know that it references double-blind studies; you can't get much better than that!
I stand by the legitimacy of my post as it will help, rather than hinder, others' weight loss progress.0 -
