Does apple cider vinegar help you lose weight?

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 cant seem to maintain a healthy dieteither I'm trying to catch up on sleep or I just dont feel hungry at night. Because of the night shift, my routine's all over the place now. What do you think should be my ideal diet and routine? I'm noticing problems like hair fall, mood swings, and sometimes even weakness. Also, Im a pure vegetarian, so Id love some suggestions keeping that in mind. Looking forward to your advice!

Aim for 7-8 hours of quality sleep during the day. Use dark curtains and keep the room cool. Before shift: Have whole grains, protein (tofu, lentils), and fruitsvegetables. During shift: Opt for light snacks like yogurt, hummus, and stay hydrated with water or herbal tea. Post-shift: Eat a light meal with protein (vegetable soup, smoothie).

On a general note, men tend to loose abdominal fat first while women loose fat around hips, buttocks and thighs first.
