Take some every morning! It's not the most tasty but it can sure kick start you metabolism!

No, no it can't. Sorry. It really doesn't kickstart your metabolism, boost fat loss, detox the body, or any of those other claims. It's just the flavour of the month miracle product.
does make good pulled pork though.22 -

Sorry to disappoint, but no it absolutely has no ability to kick start your metabolism. Only thing that might do that would be a defibrillator.13 -
If your metabolism needs a kickstart, you have a lot more problems than the taste of ACV.12

All these years and I was having to hand crank my metabolism. I coulda been kickstarting it!25

Isa Chandra Moskowitz uses it in her low-calorie coleslaw dressing and it's a good recipe. But doesn't do bubkis for metabolism.6

Thanks for the feed back everyone! That's unfortunate because I know I'm not the only one who thinks this way. It seems like weight loss is a religion now a days ! People believe in a lot of different things!18

It is a bit like that, really. People getting up and preaching different miracles, and usually collecting coins in the plate while they do it. Sorting through the hokum can be time consuming, but ultimately worth it. Science doesn't tend to care what people believe

Since you strongly believe in it, it may have some minor psychological benefits for you despite the fact that science proves that all the claimed benefits are complete bunk. Google "placebo effect".
But in actual scientific/physiological terms, it does not "kickstart your metabolism" and it has no benefits for weight loss. It's not bad on fish and chips if you don't happen to have any malt vinegar handy, though!9 -

People believe in Bigfoot and the Lochness monster too with no actual evidence that either exist. Think about that for a second.rorobeanie wrote: »Thanks for the feed back everyone!

And yes weight loss is a religion for many. It's when you actually LISTEN TO SCIENCE is when you find out the truth.

What I don't get though, is why people don't want to own their successes - If I was buying into something and having success and someone told me that the thing wasn't what was causing the success, it was me, I'd be thrilled.11 -

Tru dat! It's like when my clients say "thanks to you". I didn't do the workouts! I didn't do calorie deficit for you! The credit doesn't go to me, but the client that did the work in the first place. I just "informed" them correctly.Alatariel75 wrote: »

There are people who still believe that the Earth is flat too, despite overwhelming, conclusive scientific evidence to the contrary. If you'd like a (scary) peek into their library of "research", have at it: https://www.tfes.org/library.php
Correlation being that the "science" supporting a flat Earth is about as sound as the "science" supporting any benefits of ACV for weight loss or metabolism.5 -

Most definitely. I'm not in a paid position for it, but a lot of people have seen my shapeshift, asked for help, and actually taken my advice. One guy in particular comes to mind for this conversation. He kept telling me what a great thing I had done for him.
"No dude, it was all you. You had to suffer the caloric restriction and hoist the weight."
"Yeah, but I couldn't have done it without you."
"No, you couldn't have done it without factual information, instead of the BS the media tries to sell you. I was just the conduit for said information. Nothing more."6 -

Try taking the MFP bus instead. Your teeth and esophagus will thank you, too.
The only thing I lost drinking ACV was my will to live.

That awful taste first thing in the morning would be a shock - maybe that's the "kickstart" you feel.4
-
There have been a couple of studies which found it lowered blood glucose levels (nothing to do with weight loss). I tried it - no reason not to test it since I already had a jug, like the flavor, and am a diabetic. According to my blood testing monitor it had mixed effects, if any, not noticeable enough to be worth continuing.1

Acv does nothing for your health. It does nothing for weight loss.
Weight loss comes down to eating less than you burn.
That said I like acv in some salad dressings. In particular acv is good in honey mustard dressing.2 -

The only thing that kick starts the metabolism is getting off our backsides more and being active.4

It doesn't affect metabolism but it does make a great salad dressing with olive oil and it does help a little with gut health in acidity of your stomach which is helpful. But it may rot your teeth - lol. It is no miracle food but it's prebiotic can be helpful. Basically it is a food not a supplement.2 -
I use it in salad dressings a lot. Also used in vegan baking! However I used it for a new method this week - catching fruit flies! We have been inundated with them. I filled a little bowl with ACV and put some Saran Wrap on top. I poked a couple of holes in the wrap (not too many) and set it on the counter. In the last 24 hours I've caught over 30 fruit flies! Woo hoo!4

It never ceases to amaze me how rude some of the commenters are. We get it, you don't believe in it. You already said how you feel about it, let it go.15
