Show Notes
Story at-a-glance
- Apple cider vinegar (ACV) supports digestion, blood sugar balance, and satiety by slowing gastric emptying and stabilizing your energy after meals
- Just 1 tablespoon daily, diluted in water, helped participants lose weight, shrink waistlines, and eliminate digestive symptoms in under 30 days, according to a recent study
- ACV's active compound, acetic acid, improves insulin sensitivity and reduces fat formation by helping the body burn glucose more efficiently and store less fat after meals
- ACV also works topically and around the home. Use it to treat dandruff, reduce nasal congestion, sanitize toothbrushes, and soothe bloating, acid reflux, or minor infections
- Consuming undiluted vinegar can damage your teeth and esophagus, and combining it with medications like insulin or diuretics can dangerously lower potassium levels — here are some tips to help you use ACV safely
