In response to Anthony of Ft. Meyers: Having been "personal trainer" for a decade, you will have observed great differences in how individual bodies respond to physical training. The same is true for each individual's metabolism, and physical constitution. It has nothing whatsoever to do with "filling up on this calorie-free liquid" but rather has to do with the malic acid and acetic acid in the vinegar. Both of these stimulate the liver to metabolize fats and sugars for energy instead of sending it to cells to be stored as adipose tissue. I personally believe that the acids in vinegar cause the digestive organs to secrete more lipase, the enzyme that digests fats, and the main enzyme that all obese people are deficient in.
I take ACV. I also take BSM. The combination of these 2 supplements have caused me to lose quite a few pounds, substantially decreased my menstrual migraines, restored my (missing for almost a decade) sex drive, and seem to have somewhat balanced my hormones. Apple Cider Vinegar is a remedy so old that its origins are unknown. Frequently, the old ways are the best ways.

Listen, I have been always fighting my weight, I don't over eat, I don't keep myself from enjoying whatever I want either. I exersise but my weight has ALWAYS been a problem. I found this website through a GREAT friend at work. I checked it out and been trying ACV with water sometime just I take shots. I never drank so much vinigar in my LIFE. Anyhow starting to see results, I am less bloated, my jeans are getting big, and my face looks great! Usually around this time of the month I get my usual big zit and so far so good.So try it you have nothing to loose but weight, bloating and zits.

I have been taking a grocery store brand of ACV for a week now. I take 2-3 tbl spoons twice a day. Once in the morning and once in the evening. It has taken my daily headaches completely away, my skin is softer, and just when I thought it wasn't helping my weight, I put on a pair of jeans that I hadn't worn in a week, and they were loose! I've been pulling them up all day! I do want to suggest to definitely get the organic kind of ACV. I believe that it will work even better than the grocery store brand. I'm going to get some today.The only side effect so far is constipation. I hope by changing to the organic ACV that that will help.

WEIGHT LOSS = YESFollowing up from my posts, I've lost 3 kgs (6.6pds) in 7 weeks. The weight started coming off in the 5/6th week. I also increased my drinking intake (of 425ml and 2tsp) to twice a day. I actually feel sick if I eat a couple of chips (your french fries?) or a nibble of biscuits. I can taste the fat in the back of my throat. I also noticed that I lost the craving for KFC. What an amazing thing this ACV is! My weightloss is not as rapid as some of the other posters here but it is working for me. All I needed was a bit of patience and faith.

I have been taking two tablespoons of avc 3 to 2 times a day with four ounces of apple juice or grape juice, for about four weeks now (I usually drink 6 to 8 ounces of water after). I orginally took it for acid reflux and it began working immediately. I read more info on this site and continued to take the same dosage and just last Monday, I have lost over two inches in belly fat, fat from back and upper arms. I usually eat raw and steamed veggies with low carbs, but never had results such as this. My hair is growing faster and my nails are growing like never before. Thanks for this site.

Patience is a virtue. I wouldn't dismiss the beneficial things that ACV can bring with just a short period of time. Each individual will have different results. I mean I started taking ACV along with Conconut oil during March of this year in hopes of loosing weight. I made it a vow not to weigh myself all this time, because you only set yourself up for disappointment. Next thing you know, I am getting compliments of how much weight I've lost. So, do give it some time and you will see a difference. It might not today, but it will come.

I was having severe knee pain. One of my friends asked me to take apple cider vinegar. I started that while I was in Singapore. Until now I finished 3 bottles. Doses : two teaspoonful with one glass of cold water. My knee pain has not been cured, but I reduced extra fat of my body & lose weight. But some of my relatives cautioned me that ACV will increase acidity, as well as may be harmful for kidney. It may be mentioned that I have given away my one kidney to my husband & am now living with one kidney. Bangladesh's nephrologist couldn't answer my query whether ACV would be harmful for kidney. And can I take this dose for life long? Would appreciate your respond & suggestion in this regard. Regards.
