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.
