Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Yes, according to some studies it does reduce fat storage, increase fat burning, reduce appetite and improve blood sugar and insulin response. Because of its high acidity, drinking a lot of apple cider vinegar can damage your teeth, hurt your throat, and upset your stomach. So, it is not the right way to loose weight and it should not be used in more quatity for many days.

Apple cider vinegar (ACV) is often discussed as a natural aid for weight loss, but its effects are generally modest. Some small studies suggest that ACV might help reduce appetite or improve metabolism slightly, which could contribute to weight loss over time. However, it is not a magic solution.

Key points to consider:

  1. Limited evidence: Scientific support for ACV's weight loss benefits is limited and not strong enough to rely on it alone.
  2. Healthy lifestyle: Sustainable weight loss is best achieved through a balanced diet, regular physical activity, and healthy habits.
  3. Safety: Consuming ACV in small amounts is generally safe, but excessive intake can cause digestive discomfort or affect tooth enamel.

If you are considering using apple cider vinegar for weight loss, it’s a good idea to discuss it with a healthcare provider or a dietitian to ensure it fits well with your overall health plan and goals.

I'm a bit confused about which type of milk is best for my health. Is there a certain time of the day when it's better to drink milk? We have access to buffalo, cow, and Amul milk here. Someone mentioned to me that cow milk can cause diabetesis there any truth to that? Can you help clarify this for me?

Regarding the type of milk that is good for health, both buffalo and cow milk are nutritious options. However, cow's milk is more commonly consumed and is a good source of calcium and protein. As for the right time to drink milk, it is generally recommended to have a glass of milk in the morning or before bedtime. Regarding the concern about cow milk causing diabetes, there is no direct evidence to support this claim. It is important to maintain a balanced diet and lifestyle to prevent diabetes. You can consider consuming Amul cow's milk as it is a popular and trusted brand. The recommended dosage is one glass of milk per day for adults.

I'm 33 and just a regular person trying to make healthier choices. I've been thinking about adding ghee to my diet daily but I'm unsure which one is better for health benefits - cow ghee or buffalo ghee? Can you help me understand the differences or what might be better for someone like me?

Both cow and buffalo ghee offer health benefits, but cow ghee is generally considered superior due to its higher levels of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, as well as conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), which may aid in weight management and immune function; however, choose a high-quality, grass-fed, and cultured ghee from either source to reap the benefits.
