Hey guys!
Quick question, do any of you drink apple cider vinegar? If so do you notice if it helps with weight loss? And how and when do you drink it?
Need help with Apple cider vinegar
I tried to drink it and it caused too many adverse reactions for me personally (very sore throat, couldnāt get the taste out of my mouth, I was worried about my teeth)⦠so I switched to the ACV capsules (I buy mine from Amazon but you can get them in many shops that have a pharmacy section. I take 2 with every meal and 2 going to bed. Even on my fasting days I take 6 a day (2 at a time, intervals apart).
I usually make it with nice big glass of filtered water 1 tablespoon of apple cider and 1 table spoon of lemon juice from a freshly squeezed lemon and use a cheese grader to grade some raw ginger root into it and some raw dandelion weeds from the back yard chopped up and a little raw horse radish also with a cheese grader but just a few slivers because itās potent stuff! Makes a great digestive bitter too! Just little bit not a lot!
Yes it can help with fat burning and the biological pathway used in the chart below:
@atomicspacebunny I sorta/kinda tried apple cider vinegar with ginger root during that discussion. My initial results were that the vinegar seemed to reduce the gain from the ginger root. I intend to test more rigorously when I get around to testing the ginger root more rigorously as well.
I was using the ginger more as a digestive bitter but ginger by itself may decrease the inflammation of adipose tissue by itselfā¦which is really neat!
I tried to make a batch of acv lemonade and absolutely couldnāt get past the taste. I have seen many posts on various sites where some people donāt mind the flavor, but it was an absolute nada here
I put 2 tablespoons in some Lipton diet green tea, reminds me of kombucha.
I drink it multiple times a day and add it to food, salad dressing, marinades, etcā¦
Ooo I like Kombucha. ACV even with lemon is not pleasant. I might have to try a Bunny variation as well.
I drink ACV because it reportedly delays glucose absorbtion and reduces insulin spikes. Jason Fung swears by it and thatās good enough for me!
It tastes disgusting and I still have to brace myself to drink it! I used to sweeten it a little with stevia but I am pretty well sweetener free now!
Sometimes I make ice cubes out of it, one crunch and swallow! Else I just dilute in water or cold raspberry tea!
Everything else I eat and drink is delicious so I guess I cant complain!
I remain a skeptic on the value of ACV. I find Fung and Bikman as respectable proponents, yet with Jockers and Berg also on board, and click-baitingly so, this keeps my skepticism on high alert.
With that ambivalent preamble presented, I drink it twice a day, one shotās worth per dose, morning and evening. Evenings are great when my wifeās preternaturally gifted cooking leads my brain to all sorts of excellent if dangerous places. ACV is a slap to the face; āsnap out of it, man!ā thing.
Heavenās no, I do not drink it straight. That sounds terrifying. I mix a shot in with 12 oz of unsweetened homemade tea, or if I have seltzer water on hand. Itās not terrible when I do it then, and I find it helps steady my usual reflexive desire to snack. My experience could all be placebo, but I donāt care if thatās all it is, either.
I truly donāt know if it works, but I couldnāt bear to be missing out! Every little helpsš
If you donāt like the taste pinch your nose and down it fast.
I take ACV, and anecdotally, feel it helps me lose weight as well as reduces my hunger. My body feels like its running better when I take ACV than when I donāt. Nothing scientific, just a personal observation.
Mix it with something like water or someone mentioned tea ā or dilute it and drink it with a straw. The acid is not good for your teeth. Iād also drink some regular water right after to make sure none of the residue coats your throat.
What kind of water dilution are you using. Thinking about a couple Tablespoons of vinager to a large glass of water is not that acid.
