Many are keen to eat apple cider vinegar because of its many health benefits for the body.
This type of vinegar is made from fermented apples, and it is sold in addition to its liquid form, as pills, gum, or powder.
There is also an unfiltered form of apple cider vinegar liquid, which contains a thick layer of probiotic bacteria, which contain microbes that improve the beneficial bacteria in the body, especially those that are good for gut health.
Acetic acid is the main active ingredient in apple cider vinegar and has been linked to positive health outcomes such as reducing some risk factors associated with heart disease.
According to natural medicine specialist Josh Reed, consuming apple cider vinegar may also help lower cholesterol, especially in people with type 2 diabetes.
USA Today quoted Reid as saying, “Vinegar is also rich in magnesium, potassium, phosphorus and calcium, which are essential minerals for health and proper organ function.”
Reid added, “Apple cider vinegar is characterized by its antioxidants that remove free radicals from blood cells to prevent or reduce the chances of disease.”
Does apple cider vinegar reduce weight?
Studies show that apple cider vinegar improves metabolism, thus preventing obesity.
According to Lisa Young, assistant professor of nutritional sciences at New York University, vinegar “increases feelings of fullness, which in turn can reduce appetite.”
Young recommends that the amount of vinegar consumed per day not exceed two tablespoons.
And Reid confirms that taking apple cider vinegar with meals “may also help reduce high blood sugar and improve insulin sensitivity, which may help promote weight loss.”
“Because of its high acidity, apple cider vinegar can erode tooth enamel over time, so it is necessary to dilute it with water,” Reed advises.
