Two groups – one consumed a 250 calorie per day deficit, while the other consumed 250 calorie per day deficit plus 30ml apple cider vinegar.

12 weeks later everyone had lost weight, but the average weight lost in the deficit only group was 2.3kg compared to an average weight loss of 4kg in the apple cider vinegar group.

Energy intake and expenditure appeared to be the same across groups, but the ACV group also saw greater improvements in additional markers (such as triglycerides) (Khezri et al, 2018).

Now, this isn’t a perfect study. These participants weren’t locked in a lab and force fed. The study group probably knew they were consuming vinegar due to the taste. So yes, those who want to pick holes probably will be able to, but this isn’t a standalone study. Additional studies have reported a greater reduction in body weight, visceral fat, and triglycerides when participants consumed vinegar compared to placebo (Kondo et al, 2009)

So is it magic? Well considering we’re constantly told ALL that matters for fat loss is calories in vs calories out, and this would challenge that concept, I would say it kinda is magic 🤷‍♂️😏

  • Thoughts on sipping from cup vs using a straw to protect teeth?

  • So do you think apple cider vinegar is changing either their caloric intake or their expenditure, or both?

  • Would this be due to its effects on reducing blood sugar spikes?

  • What kind of exercises was done to elicit the calorie expenditure? Were both groups the same and was there an independent control group?

    I like where you’re going, but pretty shoddy study to use IMO

  • Acv does wonders for so many ailments, even pcos, uterine cysts, endometriosis, gut health, parasites and so much more. BUT KINDLY NOTE that when used everyday it uses up your potassium reserves so don’t forget to consume sufficient fruits and veggies or smoothies to benefit more from the daily acv and make sure your hormones stay intact. 😍

  • Herpes has been one of the most significant virus in the US now, and its spreading really fast, and the government are only producing medical dr rafIu that can suppress it but rather keep on eliminating the African herbal doctors who were able to discover a way to completely cure the virus..I’m delighted to be finally cured of herpes 2 after i applied @Dr_rafIu_herbalhome medication for just two week

  • The fact that energy intake and expenditure were the same… and the ACV group improved blood markers and fat loss blows my mind. Why do you think ACV has this impact? Does it have to do with improved digestion = better nutrient absorption = downstream effect on ^ BMR?
