I have been reading about Apple Cider Vinegar and I was wondering if any of you have added this to your daily routine? If so, did it boost your weight loss?

    It doesn't do anything for weight loss.

    It's good gnat trap bait.

    I'll have to add that one to my list! (well after I've tried it to know if it really works :tongue: )

    I think I heard something about a human soul weighing 21 grams. If a gnat has a soul, I guess you can work out the proportional loss?

    Well initially I think they gain weight (drowning in stuff will add said stuff to your stomach/intestines), but then they lose (decomposition for the win).

    It definitely works. We had a bunch in our house last year. Put a little ACV in a glass, covered with plastic wrap and poked a few holes in it with a toothpick. Yep. All the gnats I didn't squish went in there and drowned.

    Ah! Good to know I need to cover it with plastic warp. Will definitely try this as those stupid gnats are annoying as hell!

    But did the decomposition-creating bacteria lose any weight??

    A shot of ACV is a good cure for hiccups.

    Well I assume those would be getting fat on all that food... But I'm not a scientist, so sadly I have no data to back all of this up.

    Acv is good on salads and no calories but as for drinking it, not for me

    Thanks for all the responses. I was asking here because I have seen it all over the internet to help shed some weight. Being that everyone on here has that as a goal I thought maybe some of you had heard about it and or tried it.

    I'm genuinely curious, what sites are you seeing this information on? We've had a plethora of ACV threads this year and I'm perplexed where people keep running into this woo based theory that ACV (or any product for that matter) will help with weight loss.

    We've definitely heard about it, and some of us have even tried it. It does NOT work for weight loss. How would it work, exactly?

    I see something pop up on my FB page pretty much daily since the new year.

    I prefer malt vinegar on my fish and chips.
    I lost 30lbs and have kept it off for 6+ years.
    Is that why?

    Cheers, h.

    I've been seeing acv ads in the MFP app. A picture of Bragg's with some click bait title of detoxing or fast weight loss. :cry:

    Now that's probably because we talk about it so much on the forums. Gotta love digital marketing!

    Reminds me of my time on a Skeptic site that trashed a certain psychic, leading to lots of google ads for said psychic.

    It helps with gall bladder stones. It definitely helps with acne. Some studies have shown it helps insulin sensitivity. I'm not such a skeptic to think it won't work, but there is no magic pill... or juice. You can always try it for what- $2 a bottle? If you feel better, then its a success. (And those who scream "maybe its the placebo affect!" the placebo affect works, so as long as it gets results, I wouldn't knock it.)
