[YEA] Stephanie from Mesa, Arizona writes: "I bought apple cider vinegar pills and took them for weight loss. My friends and neighbors noticed that I was losing weight after about two weeks of taking the pills. I had heard that apple cider vinegar worked for weight loss but was sceptical. Now I'm a believer!!"

[YEA] Amanda from Olustee, Oklahoma writes: "I have had wonderful results with the ACV! I started taking it to lose weight and let me tell you, it works! Also, any time I even start to get a sore throat I gargle with it and the pain is gone immediately. Praise God for this wonderful stuff!! I am eager to try it on my acne as well."

[YEA] Ruth Ann from Gordon, GA writes: "I used ACV pills from Walmart 3 years ago with a low carb diet and the weight melted off in 6 months. I lost 50 lbs. Everyone asked what I was doing. I told them and they start the same. I got to the size I wanted to be and and the next thing I knew I stopped taking it and in no time (1 year later) the weight started back. I have tried many diets and none work for me!!! But once again I started this again and now 15 lbs have already come off in 15 days."

[YEA] Debra from Sidney, Maine writes: "I have lost 5 LBS in 7 days by consuming 2TBS of ACV mixed with 8 oz water before every meal! It is amazing! After giving birth to twins, I never thought I would be able to lose the weight so easily and safely! I highly recommend this."

[YEA] Heather W from Iowa City Iowa writes: "I've been drinking a couple tbsps of _______s raw apple cider vinegar with a liter of water almost every day; and I have noticed better skin, no allergy symptoms, and weight loss. I've begun exercising more as well, but I've noticed that places I normally have problems losing (spare tire) are slimming down much faster than when I've just exercised in the past. It's been two months and I've lost 12 pounds, whereas in the past I've exercised like a maniac and not lost weight this quickly. I drink at least 8 oz. water with vinegar first thing when I wake up to kick in a higher metabolism, then sip for the rest of the day."

[YEA] LaDeana from Canyon Country CA writes: "This summer I put my two children on a diet after about four weeks I wasn't seeing any loss so I decided to add the ACV and immediately I started seeing the pounds come off. My daughter is 12 and dropped 11 pounds and my son is 10 and dropped 8 pounds. Good luck to all with this amazing miracle cure."

[YEA] Krystel from Covina, CA writes: "I heard about ACV from a friend and decided to give it a try and so far I have lost 4 lbs. I know that doesn't really sound like much but I wasn't that big to start out and I lost the weight from my belly where I wanted to lose it from! I take two table spoons in a 8 oz glass of water and drink 3x a day."

[YEA] Judy writes: "I am trying apple cider vinegar for the first time. I have found the best way to drink it is in a glass of V-8 three times a day. I use celery salt and pepper and 1 tablespoon of vinegar in each glass. It tastes really good and I've lost 4 pounds in three days without trying to change my eating habits. Since the cider vinegar seems to be decreasing my appetite the weight seems to be coming off naturally. It's still a little early to tell but I'll keep on this regimen for awhile! Thanks so much for your site!"

APPLE CIDER VINEGAR AND CAYENNE
[YEA] 04/22/2008: Dee from New York, USA writes: "I have been using ACV pills and Cayenne Pepper capsules to lose weight. I have been taking them now for three weeks. I have noticed a difference already. With a little exercise at least 5 times a day, nothing strenuous and cutting down on fatty foods and snacks have helped me loose weight so far. I have not weighed myself yet, but will do so after I see more results. Everyone is complimenting me telling me that I have been loosing weight. It feels good to hear that. My clothes are fitting looser and that makes me feel good. I don't particularly like the taste of ACV itself so I opted for the pills and the pepper not such a fan of the really hot stuff either but they work just as good. If you don't like the cayenne pepper use the capsules. You should take them with food so that you don't feel the heartburn or the uncomfortable feeling in your stomach in the beginning. After a few you will not have any symptoms. So far it has worked for me. I'll keep taking them until I finish the bottles and by then I should have shed more weight."
05/11/2008: dave (nickelandsons@yahoo.com) from friend, nebraska replies: "would you contact me and tell me how the acv tabs and the pepper tabs are working?"

APPLE CIDER VINEGAR, BLACKSTRAP MOLASSES, PSYLLIUM
[YEA] 02/22/2008: MommyJoey (joeypph@yahoo.com) from Singapore, Singapore writes: "It has been around 3 weeks and I had finished two bottles of ACV with BSM in it, every 3 times a day hoping to see a drop in my weight but to no avail. One week ago, i have this terrible headache and dizzy spell and it even caused me to throw out very badly.I even realised that I've gained 2 kg since i started on the remedy. I did not give up and continue the remedy thinking that it must be a correction. This time round I even add in psyllium husk to my drink to help on my constipation problem. Guss what, it is indeed a correction (keep my finger cross), I feel more energized, all my skin problems eg. cuts and acne healed faster and i started having regular bowels everyday. No more aching back and I've got lesser food craving nowadays. I am doing more study on VCO and shall keep you guys posted on my statues."

APPLE CIDER VINEGAR, CRANBERRY, LEMON
[YEA] 06/24/2008: Michelle from Houston, TX writes: "I take a daily concoction of 1 tsp ACV, 4 ounces of unsweetened cranberry juice, 12 ounces of water, and half of a squeezed lemon. It's part of an eating plan and it's said to help cleanse the liver. All I know about it after seven days is that I feel generally better. I am prone to UTI's so the cranberry is definitely helping, and I've lost 4 pounds in eight days. (Of course, I'm following a prescribed plan of eating all natural foods and eating every three hours). It's a bitter drink, but I'm still drinking it!"

06/28/2008: Kathy from Ellijay, GA replies: "I am drinking my first cup of ACV with some honey for a sore throat but the side effect of losing weight would be wonderful. So since the pain of the distaste will likely cure my sore throat and maybe even help me lose some weight I'm ready to go. These letters are wonderful. I came to this sight looking for a natural cure for my friends dog who has a calcium deposit on his back. Can't wait to see if I lose weight!"

1 YEA
[YEA] 03/20/2007: Jonna from Atlanta, GA writes: "I am 39 years old and recently realized that going to restaurants can set me back 10 days sometimes in my weight loss regime. I realized this after going to a home-style indian restaurant 2 weeks ago. Their food was delicious, but cooked in lots of butter and sugar. It literally took 10 days to cover. My body fat went up by 1% after the meal and only today, 10 days later, has my weight dropped .50 of a pound, even though I have been exercising every day and on a very healthy, low fat diet at home. So I think one has to be very vigilant about the butter when going to a restaurant and ask that the food be prepared in olive oil. 10 days to recover from 1 meal -- can you believe it??"

[YEA] 03/31/2006: Sharon from Boston writes: "I got a huge pot of organic spun honey from the farmer's market last month. It was delicious, but after a couple of weeks, I noticed a huge buildup of dead cells on my tongue towards the back. It was pretty gross. I also felt my metabolism slowing down and I gained a couple of pounds even though I was eating very healthily. I bought regular honey at Whole Foods last weekend and after 3 days my tongue is back to normal and I am starting to lose those 2 pounds! Interesting, eh?!"

1 YEA 1 MAYBE
[YEA] 02/11/2008: Sara from Westport, OR writes: "Dear Earthclinic, I have tried many remedies over the years to remove the belly fat on my stomach and hips. I have been drinking one tablespoon of liquid bentonite clay which I purchased at the local health food store about six weeks ago. I have lost about 3" on my belly and 2" on my hips. The other reason I'm drinking this is that it detoxes metal from the body. The taste is mild and I take it only at night with a glass of water. To date, I have more energy, eat less as I feel full, and my body feels lighter. There are more benefits to ingesting clay but too numerous to mention. A 16oz. fluid bottle cost about $8.00 and has about two months worth of bentonite liquid clay."
[MAYBE]02/18/2008: Julia from Bryson City, NC replies: "Are there any side effects to eating the bentonite clay? I started this last Friday and so far have not felt any different. Thanks."

7 YEA 1 MAYBE
[MAYBE] 08/25/2008: Teresa from Kenedy, Texas writes: "I had heard Coconut Oil helped in weightloss, but wondered why it did. The Slim Shots that are for weightloss and are quite popular are all natural with no jittery side effects. It claims to satisfy your hunger for longer periods of time, allowing users to eat 30% percent less, with out feeling deprived. The ingredients are palm and oat oil with an artifical sweetner, in a small "creamer" container that you take before meals. If I am not mistaken those are medium chain triglycerides, and consuming a fat before a meal will make you feel full, so that you will eat less and potentially consume 30% less calories resulting in weightloss. Well these Slim Shots are quite expensive and Coconut Oil which is a medium chain triglyceride also, when consumed before each meal would have about the same effect. Now that I understand why the Coconut Oil could help in weightloss I have begun taking it before each meal. I have seen a difference. Recently I was put on insulin and a side effect of that is increased hunger. I had started snacking in between meals, almost out of control, but since taking the Coconut Oil before each meal, I eat less at meals and do not snack in between meals. I will continue doing this and am hoping for good results."
08/29/2008: Sandy from Bangalore, India replies: "Hi Theresa, How much of a time gap do you have between having your coconut oil and your meal? Thanks."

[YEA] 06/29/2008: Grace from Brooklyn, New York writes: "Coconut oil helped me to lose weight. Taking one table spoon three times a day before meals, helped me feel full faster, stop me from eating between meals and stopped my cravings for sweets. Wonderful when used as body lotion. Coconut oils also helps fight yeast infections. Taking pure coconut oil regularly also helped me to reduce recurring yeast infections and cramps."

[YEA] 05/20/2008: Rose from Bournemouth, England writes: "Organic virgin coconut oil has reduced my weight by over 2 stones (28 lbs) and I am delighted."
05/21/2008: Tom from Sydney, Australia replies: "can you advise how / when / in what quantity did you take the coconut oil to achieve weight loss? Thanks."

[YEA] 04/16/2008: Vi from West Covina, CA writes: "Extra virgin coconut oil is the only thing that cured my acid reflux. I tried everything including tums and apple cider vinegar. The only side effect is that you will drop about 10 pounds in a month and I think the majority of people might like that. It's been about three weeks since I've taken the coconut oil and so far no sign of the acid reflux."

[YEA] 04/09/2008: Carla from Grand Rapids, MI writes: "I read on this site that several people felt they had lost weight using organic virgin coconut oil so I decided to try it. I bought a jar at a health food store and I use it instead of lotion now. I use 1 to 2 tablespoons of it per day instead of ingesting that amount (really didn't like the taste). I noticed that I started to lose weight in a gradual way. I did also cut out all wheat gluten (I think I am intolerant) and the weight has been coming of steadily from my middle area-hips and legs which is fantastic. This is an excellent site, thank you so much."
