[YEA] 11/27/2005: Rene from Livingston, La writes: "two months ago,I started using the acv. (_______'s) on a daily basis with 2 tbsp. before dinner. I use it for over-all health and wt. loss. It works, I lost 15 pounds within a four week period. I take the acv. full strength because I have acquired a taste for it. Over the Thanksgiving holidays,I gained a few extra pounds from over-indulging and I was out of my routine of taking the acv. before my dinner. I skipped four nights of taking the acv. and I noticed a difference on the scales when I gained a few extra pounds. On the fifth day, I got back on the acv. and the scales showed a 2 pound difference the next morning. I am a believer! Never leave home without your acv AND Never miss a day!"

[YEA] 03/18/2005: Brenda from Bear, DE writes: "After retiring, my weight soared quickly from 140 to 175. Two months ago, I began doing vinegar (heinz) and water 3 times a day. I am down to 152 and am not dieting any other way. Arthritis is much better, no sinus or headaches, and I feel much younger at 65. I have lost 23 lbs. in 2 months. I use 2 TBS. of vinegar in 6 oz. water twice a day. I find it helps me more to take it right after lunch and supper. I don't feel so bloated after my vinegar drinks and swear this has took the weight off and makes me feel better overall."

[YEA] Anonymous writes: "Just one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water at meals can change your life completely. How? Apple cider vinegar contains acetic acid which stimulates the production of stomach acid. The more stomach acid the better as it breaks down your food into smaller molecules. The smaller the molecules the more efficiently your intestines and liver can absorb the nutrients it needs. In the old days the stomach would be producing acid all day long so it would be ready for meal time. But these days when the body is stressed the stomach stops producing acid so at meal time there's not enough acid to digest the food. This creates all kinds of problems; indigestion, gastric reflux, IBS, bad breath, diverticulus, fatty liver, lactose intolerance, allergies, fatigue, you name it. But just a little bit of apple cider vinegar gets the stomach working again."

[YEA] krisanne from Birch Run, Michigan writes: "Apple cider vinegar helped in my weight loss. I have always been watching what I eat,but I do like fresh fryed perch from the bay,anyways the other day I felt a little bloated so I decieded to have a mixed greens salad with red onions,so I mixed up a ACV, grapeseed oil, scallots, garlic, salt and pepper dressing,a day later I felt tired and I had 5 or 6 bowel movements that day. The next day I felt great, stomach ache was gone, bloatness was gone,and I felt awake. So I got out my ACV book and did some research. What I came up with is my body was flushing the toxins from the ACV dressing.So I started taking 2 teaspooons daily with a little water because I love vinegar and I feel great."

[YEA] Ruth Ann from Gordon, GA writes: "I used ACV pills 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."
Replies02/14/2011: Deb from Af, Utah replies: "IF you do not seem to be losing much weight taking ACV then you have a build up of yeast in your system. You must get rid of the yeast before your body can function properly. NO SUGARS not even natural in fruits and tomatos and NO artificial sweetners either. No dairy except cottage cheese and very little if any butter. No Breads or anything like crackers or chips or anything coated with yeast. Read the label. Lot's of water and ACV taken reponsibly.
I also do a colon cleanse along with the candida diet and I have lost a total of 75 lbs. The weight continues to come off."

[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!"

[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."

Replies01/11/2012: Francisca from Zug, Switzerland replies: "I don't know whether my answer will help you but for a while I took molasses and ACV, not because I needed to lose weight but for my health in general. I noticed that I started to lose weight so I stopped. People were starting to complain that I had lost too much weight but again.... I wasn't really overweight, so I don't know whether it will work for you! I never put the weight on again although I eat quite well!"
01/11/2012: Stella from Goose Creek, S.c. replies: "How much of each did you use daily? Did you mix it together or with other liquids? Thank you for responding."
01/11/2012: Maria from Salt Lake City, Utah/usa replies: "Did you mix them with water? or how did you take them?"
[YEA] 01/12/2012: Stella from Goose Creek, Sc/usa replies: "I've been taking 1 tablespoon of ACV and 1 tablespoon of BSM in orange juice and water. I've lost 4 pounds in 2 days. I read on here that if you take the ACV in orange juice, that you don't taste it. That is absolutely the truth. I'm taking this combination 3 times a day and following it with water. If this is not a safe way, please respond. Thank you."
01/12/2012: Stella from Goose Creek, Sc/usa replies: "I forgot to mention that it has drastically affected my appetite. I no longer crave sweets, but, have noticed I like salty foods. Does anyone know if this is normal? I never really liked salt that much before this. Also, it does make me urinate much more than I ever have."
01/13/2012: Gavin from Manganui, Northland, New Zealand replies: "You will know if you're taking too much, but I'd say the amount you're taking is getting around the upper limit... If your Urine turns yellow, don't worry that's the fat getting excreted. You could always back off a bit till the urine looks normal then up it a bit."

[NAY] 03/26/2009: Carmenza Roldan from Chicago, ILL. USA writes: "I'm so excited that I found this great website, it seems like I'm addicted since I come here for all kinds of health concerns and I always find great advice from all of you!
I started with the ACV and the Molasses two weeks ago, my main concern was losing weight and be healthier, I feel good I had not experience any allergies or sinuses problems, but I had not seen any improvement in regards of my weight, I had cut down the carbs and I'm eating small portions and still have not seen not even 1 pound.
I bought the organic vinegar the brand recommended in this website with the mother, I take this vinegar 3 times a day before meals the first time I take it right after the molasses first thing in the morning.
I wonder if it is the combination of the 2 the vinegar and molasses that is not allowing me to see any results in regards of the weight. Please advice. Thanks."

[YEA] 02/22/2008: MommyJoey 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."

[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!"
Replies01/06/2009: Erynn from New Haven, CT replies: "In response to Michelle from Houston, TX -- If the drink is bitter, try adding some grade b maple syrup to the mix. Although its adding some calories, your also adding some vital nutrients which will give you energy and good health. I highly recommend it over honey any day! (Goes well in tea too)."

[YEA] 06/02/2010: Nursejane from Texas writes: "I've been taking 2 tablespoons of raw organic apple cider vinegar diluted in 8oz of water and sweetened with 1 tablespoon of raw organic honey at night before bed. I'll be honest, I was extremely skeptical when I started this one week ago along with exercise and healthy eating. I've lost 8lbs and 2 inches from my waist in only 1 week!! I am amazed at the results. I've NEVER lost weight this quickly using diet and exercise alone. I'm now a believer in ACV. My skin is glowing and my energy levels are thru the roof! No more bloating and I just have an overall sense of well-being. Try it! It works!!"
Replies06/03/2010: Francisca from Michelbach-le-bas, Alsace, France replies: "Very true..... Even taking only a teaspoon a day in a glass of water I lose weight meaning.... I don't think that I can take ACV (it is not as if I need to lose weight, to be honest...). Moreover my tongue gets coated after a few days. Too bad as it seems to be quite healthy. No idea why so many people seem to take it without a problem and I do have a few issues."
