Process approx 6-8 beets with a peeled and cored Granny Smith apple. Put it all in a Ziploc with 1/3 cup sugar and 1/4 cup ACV. Seal the bag, shake it all up, and chill.)
Cooked beets, or raw beets? (I know they're usually eaten cooked, but I've had quite a nice raw beet "carpaccio", so I wasn't sure - I could imagine a raw salad.)0 -
Raw. One of the things I love about the recipe.

Oh man. Ok OP, here's the jist of it:
Drink Shakes instead of meals, Take that one weight loss pill, Avoid these five foods, Don't eat sugar, You have to drink apple cider vinegar for breakfast every second Tuesday each month, Do at least 400 minutes of cardio every week, Absolutely no sweets, Eat fewer calories than your body uses, Don't drink soda of any kind, You can't eat after 7pm, You have to water fast two days per week, Intermittent fasting is the only way, Don't eat carbs, Your calories absolutely must be 1000 or less per day, What you really need is gastric bypass, and always drink green tea at breakfast.
And that's what I know for absolute certain.

I couldn’t get into it. Every time I tried it I ended up puking after. I just couldn’t swallow it but I heard it doesn’t let a noticeable difference.1

I don't use apple cidar vinegar for weight loss but I use it because it's a great detox ☺ I put a teaspoon of ACV in a cup of water and drink it daily. It's really healthy for your body. Though do not drink ACV by itself.. since it's so acidic it can damage your esophagus and tooth enamel, have to dilute it in water.39

Ah, maybe that's the amazing secret of apple cider vinegar. Have a glass or two BEFORE and AFTER your meals and you will lose weight in new time - and you will starve yourself to death.....2 -

What is it you think you need to 'detox'?6 -

Cleans out toxins in the liver/kidneys and regulates blood sugar levels. Also helps with UTI's.38 -
Which toxins? Because your liver and kidneys do that on their own; if they didn't you'd be on dialysis or dead.10

I know they do it on their own, I just like to help my body a little bit. Nothing wrong with that.24 -
No, not if it worked. But it really really doesn't.7

Name these toxins please.
Why can't your liver and kidneys do their job without assistance?
Any science to back up your medical claims?10 -

I never said the liver and kidneys can't do the job on their own. I should have said "it helped" so my bad.
Here are some I found.

Also, I've had a doctor and a dietitian mention it before to me so I figured why not. I've been using it for a year now and haven't had any problems.30 -

And this Google search is your science? You actually believe people are removing (curiously) nameless toxins although if you can't name them or test for them or measure them you are convinced they are there?
I've not been drinking ACV for 58 years and haven't had those issues and as far as I know people aren't turning up at Accident & Emergency with asymptomatic toxicity and being prescribed vinegar.8 -

You know.. I don't remember forcing drinking ACV on anyone so why is everyone so against something I do with my own body? I'm happy that you have went 58 years without it. But I said this before and I'll say it again, I like it. I did not tell anyone that they need to do it, I was just saying what I use ACV for because someone asked. I did not find out about ACV by Google, I found it by my doctor and dietitian, which is a much more reliable source than Google. I only did the google search, because you asked, I'm sorry that you disagree with it.24 -

What precisely did your Doctor and Dietician say?
Did they explain the mechanism by which a condiment helps the normal kidney and liver function?
For what condition (if you are happy to share)?
Did they diagnose you with some sort of toxicity? Blood tests? Biopsy?
Did they retest after a period of time to see if you have actually "detoxed".
I really didn't ask you to do a Google search for online magazine articles promoting ACV.8 -
I drink raw ACV with the mother (Braggs) on occasions just as I consume home made kefir and sauerkraut etc. for the probiotic benefits to support my gut as I have Hashimoto's. No weight loss benefits seen (or expected tbh ). 4
