Apple Cider Vinegar for Significant Weight Loss
Wendy (Usa) on 02/22/2016
I tried low carb many times, but my BS drops too much, I need high protein with a tiny bit of carb mixed, as far as the avc, its working for me, not dieting at all, in fact I go over board on the carbs at times, but in MY case, it turned out I was making too my Aldosterone, the water retention hormone during peri menopause, my adrenals were stressed out and so my cortisol went through the roof.
The excess cortisol was raising my aldosterone, I was taking the Apple Cider Vinegar for acid reflux (works great by the way)
And so for 6 years I suffered from water retention, I tried EVEY THING! But till recently, only the Apple Cider Vinegar worked, I could NOT figure out WHY, so me, being the Google queen, set out to FIND OUT WHY! it turns out the Acetic Acid (in acv) LOWERS Aldosterone.
If I stop taking it, the water weight creeps back, I must continue to take until menopause finally occurs and things balance out. ( I hope it does)
And for the record, I did see and Endocrinologist and had things tested. The Aldo was high, but not from a Tumor anywhere, and the Cortisol was high but not from a diseased Adrenal Gland issue, the Insulin was high, but not from a Pancreas problem....all this is from Peri-Menopause!!
Who freeeaking knew???? I went into "The Change" very stressed out and that is not good for the Adrenals, they have their own job, and when it is time to help out during menopause it would be nice if they were stronger.
I had gained 30 pounds in 6 months from the High Cortisol/Aldo/Insulin.
Since the acv, it is going down, down down, almost 10 pounds already in less than a month. I do not diet, I do not exercise, I only keep busy.

- 2-3 Oolong Tea bags
- 2-3 flavored teabags (Peach, berry, mango, etc)
- I steep these tea bags in about two cups of hot water until cool and then remove the bags.
- To the tea I add 3-5 Tablespoons of ACV, A shake or two of cinnamon, a shake or two of ground ginger. I take this concentrate and add about 6 cups of water. As I pour a glass, I add sweetener (Like stevia, maple syrup, honey or agave ~ just whatever I have around) It sure tastes good. There are many recipes on the internet for something similar called "Good Girl MoonShine." I hope this helped. <

So, no need to take ACV straight, especially if you don't like the taste of it. Adding a couple of teaspoons or a tablespoon to 8 oz of water will do the trick. Personally, I LOVE it in ice cold water, but I've spoken with others who prefer warm water. Either will work just as well as the other.
Enjoy...! ;-)

I have been taking 2 tsp of Apple Cider Vinegar with the mother about 15 minutes before my meals 5 days a week for a month (2 weeks with organic honey, 2 weeks without). I experienced more energy the first two weeks, then the effects wore off. In addition, although I have slightly modified my eating, I have not lost any weight, in fact, I have gained about 5 lbs. I am a female, 23 years old, no children with good health, yet could stand to lose about 20 lbs (well with the recent weight gain that would be 25 lbs total). Can anyone offer any helpful advice with this matter? I am just about ready to give up :( I want to lose successfully like the rest of you guys.

-I used to be a sugar craving monster and no longer am. In fact they don't even taste that good to me anymore as one reviewer already stated. The major key to ACV working is to sip not chug. I sometimes wonder if this is why it might not work for some people since I noticed a big difference taking it both ways. -Also if you feel down in the dumps take a shot est 3 tsp worth it made me feel ready to clean my house. My aunt just had a gastric bypass surgery. I only wish she would have found ACV first. I have much more energy than I used to.

Many times, people eat because they mistake thirst for hunger, they overeat in response, and therefore gain weight. It has been shown in studies that people are normally functioning in a dehydrated state, more often than not. Additionally, if you are drinking 20 oz. of water right before you have dinner, it has nothing to do with the ACV but you taking up 2. 5 cups of volume in your stomach. Therefore, you feel full faster and eat less calories.
Bravo on dropping some pounds and getting hydrated, but if you really want to get healthy and not just "skinny, " I would recommend losing the junk food. Those are just empty calories with little to no nutritional value and if you have been that successful with your ACV regimen, you should be able to easily and slowly change your eating habits for incredible success.
Good Luck!

What I decided to do was 2 tsp of vinegar with 20 oz of water when I wake up and right before I eat dinner as well. I didnt change the way I eat, I dont exercise at all, and as a matter of fact ive been eating more fatty foods because the weight has been dropping like a miracle so I feel like I can pig out more. I wonder if I really eat right what will happen. I will report back when I decide to eat right but I am enjoying my mcdonalds, pizza hut, cinnabuns and all that stuff as the weight falls. I want to thank you for this miracle!! I use the apple cider vinegar from whole foods but you can use whatever u want... Also it was giving me a funny odor out of my skin so I bought some Perineal Cleanser Spray from walmart for 1.98 and ur supposed to spray it on but I just poured it in my body wash and shook it up and if some of you are getting a funny skin odor from using this stuff try that spray, im serious it works. Ok thank you im outta here!
Apple Cider Vinegar Not Helping Weight Loss

I've decided to try ACV to see if I can yield any positive results to help me shed the weight I've gained from years of sedentary study.
I have been sipping the recommended 16 oz of water with 2 tsp of ACV (the B* organic raw-unfiltered apple cider vinegar with "the mother") with honey in it for a week and a day now (I started Monday April 24).
Almost immediately I noticed that my appetite shrank, I'm eating smaller portions, not having cravings for sweets. According to a calorie tracker I'm consuming less than 1400 calories a day, and only over the weekend did I have anything sweet. I also pee a lot but that isn't entirely unusual for me, so I'm unsure if it is related or not.
I don't have a scale, as they tend to breed more insecurity in me more than anything, so I can't track my progress that way. I may look into a cheap one soon. So far I haven't lost any inches, but it has only been a week so I'm still hopeful!
I'll try to post any progress, any advice would be welcome!
Apple Cider Vinegar With "the Mother"
Janet (Madison, Ct. USA) on 01/29/2012
This might sound rather strange.... But this is the real stuff... Trust me! You can buy it at a natural food store or at hip supermarket. I have found it at chain stores as well.
Having grown up in Woodstock N.Y. in the 1960's, I was part of the pack that used this to cure everything from sour stomach to losing weight to getting rid of yeast over growth as well as healing your gums and as a healthy hair rinse. It is also great for dog and cat hot spots and other pet skin problems. Plus... it will actually benefit them if they lick it!
Apple Cider Vinegar Gave Energy and Helped Weight Loss
Coregon (Medford, Or) on 01/27/2012
I never thought I could get used to the flavor of apple cider vinegar (GAG!! ). So I got a small juice glass and put 1 teaspoon of Apple Cider Vinegar and fill it to the top with organic apple juice or apple cider. Funny thing happened. After a week I noticed the flavor not bothering me so much. I use a shot glass instead of a juice glass now and the flavor doesn't bother me at all.. In fact I kind of like it (and my daughter used to laugh at me gagging over it). You DO become accustomed to the flavor. In fact it just tastes like apple juice with a "bite" now.
I also have noticed another funny thing. I had a really bad night the other night during a thunder lightening storm and only got an hour's sleep. I woke up expecting to be exhausted all day. At midnight that night I realized had a super high energy day, got tons of stuff done and I STILL wasn't tired! I attribute my high energy (even with no sleep) to the ACV. It gives amazing energy!
And for weight loss: I was losing weight with it when I took it at LEAST 20 minutes BEFORE meals. When I started taking it AFTER meals, my weight loss stopped, I even gained a pound. So whoever wrote that if you take it BEFORE you LOSE, AFTER you GAIN.. Was absolutely right. I take my first shot with juice before I take my shower. Then by the time breakfast is ready, it's been 30 minutes or longer that it has had to go to work on the fat stores. And watch how your clothes fit, not the scale! I lost a full size, but only 4 pounds in the first week. If you watch the scale, you'll be disappointed... Fat doesn't weigh much, and you burn it off with vinegar.
My last benefit I noticed was my joints don't ache! I have rheumatoid and this stuff is just amazing. Flexibility and pain reduction. This is truly a miracle when you consider it is less than $5 a bottle and it lasts a long time. _____'s is the only vinegar I buy. Be sure to shake well before drinking and DO NOT refrigerate. It will keep for YEARS in the cupboard.
