Apple Cider Vinegar review

Posts: 19 Member
I started to drink the Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) a week ago, and the result has been amazing. My tummy doesn't feel bloated anymore, and I lost a few inches. How I make it? I just add 2 tsp of ACV and 1 tsp of lime juice in a cup of water. I drink 30 mnts before breakfast every morning. I want to continue to keep drinking the ACV.
And I make the ACV as my toner as well. My face had terrible breakouts recently, so i use the ACV as a toner. And now my face is so much fairer and the breakouts are gone.
God bless the ACV

Did you add the drink without making any other dietary/lifestyle changes?4

Oy vey. Prolonged use of ACV (even diluted) on your face risks a chemical burn. Worth it?14

@livingleanlivingclean yeah, I take less carbs and more protein foods everyday. And I make sure my intake calories don't exceed more than 1200 calories. I wanna start to do the intermittent fasting this week as well.16

@NextRightThing714 I don't use it everyday as my toner now. At night i will apply pure aloeverra as a mask everyday. Even if I use the ACV for the toner, ill use the moisturizer as well after that. I'll use ACV if I have zits on my face7

Reducing the carbs in your diet most likely caused you to shed some water weight.
You don't need all these gimmicks, they're just diversions and placebos. Best of luck, but if you need to lose weight that's all about calories. And I would really be careful putting vinegar on your face.22 -

You have any links about this? I've seen where prolonged exposure (putting ACV on bandages) caused chemical burns. Never seen anything about brief applications of diluted ACV causing burns. I'm quite curious!8 -

So how did you determine that it was the ACV and not all the other changes you've made?12 -
@livingleanlivingcleanG ACV can help you to control your appetite, reduce your belly fat, lower your cholesterol. You can check it out on google.
Its the same thing if you workout so hard, but you don't control your foods intake, its useless.
Same thing with ACV, you have to control your food intake and workout as well. So its easy for you to lose more weight.

You can find all sorts of woo on google, sadly that doesn't mean it's true. ACV does not reduce belly fat, it has been known to help some people with digestion, which could lead to feeling less bloated but it doesn't cause you to burn fat, that's from your calorie deficit.20 -

But you said you also reduced carbs and restricted calories. Those things will make you lose water weight and fat, leading to the results you experienced. Claiming that you are less bloated and lost inches due to ACV is false and misleading.19 -

On the internet you can also find that the earth is flat, that Australia does not exist, aliens are among us and other pure and utter garbage. Just because Google can find it and that it is on the internet does not make it true19 -
@livingleanlivingclean @tinkerbellang83 well, I still eat rice everyday. I still eat what I used to eat everyday. And yes I had a digestion problem before. ACV helps me in a way to lose weight. Im not saying it can helps you 100% for losing weight without doing anything. Well i just wanna share my experience with ACV because when I did the same diet without ACV, it didn't change much. So I changed the game plan, I tried drinking ACV. Thanks for your opinions tho. I appreciate it ☺️20

I said I changed my game plan, which is, I drink the ACV together with the diet.10 -

I have looked it up. Combined with a dose of common sense and biochemical knowledge; It is garbarge information. Just nothing about it has any (and I mean any) relation to science and truth.
With @livingleanlivingclean @tinkerbellang83 on this one 100%12 -

Wow. Some really bitter people here. Glad the ACV worked for you. I use it for stomach upset at times and it's very helpful. Take a look at earthclinic.com and read testimonials from others (both pro and con). Keep up the good work!42

Noone is being bitter, testimonials are anecdotal, medical studies have struggled to find any link between ACV and fat loss. Most of us are just cautioning against touting the claim that ACV has helped the OP lose weight when she has already advised she is in a calorie deficit and gone lower carb, the OP has put the work in and done great, but doesn't seem to want to take the credit for it, instead she's attributing it to the ACV.19 -

It wasn't the ACV then, it was that you ate at a calorie deficit and lost weight. ACV is not a magic weight loss ingredient.17 -
ACV does not and cannot "remove belly fat"! Think logically about this, how does an inanimate liquid know which fat to go for? Why not arm fat or ear fat...??
I rather think it's the 1200 calories a day that's done the job.30 -

But that's just it. There is absolutely no evidence whatsoever or any studies that support the idea that ACV was what worked for losing inches or weight loss or anything. There's nothing bitter about that.
What drives people to post corrections like this is not bitterness toward the thread author; it's the fact that there are numerous folks that read these threads and do not post that can take this "woo" and believe it's science. It's not.
Apple cider vinegar has been around for a long time and has its uses. I use in homemade salad dressing. When I eat salads with my homemade dressing as a part of my caloric deficit, do you know what gets the credit for my weight loss? Hint: it's not the apple cider vinegar.

OP says she's using it as a toner, most people don't rinse off a toner. And the strength of the dilution is key, and probably not something the avg person making a homemade toner from miracle ACV is being careful about. Google is full of people reporting they have burns on their faces from ACV. I'm sure they did something wrong, but that's what can happen when people apply an acid solution to their face after reading a stranger's blog in their PJs 10 -
OP reads almost like a religious worship of ACV.
But no individual food or substance has any magical qualities although many have been the in thing claimed to have.
Was raspberry ketones when I first joined MFP - you never hear of them now.8
