​ Diluted vinegar for weight loss

​ Diluted vinegar for weight loss

27 Jan 2022 by Ted Escobedo   2 min read
Apple cider vinegar remains a popular diet trend, but is it as great as it claims to be? According to Carol Johnston, a professor of Nutrition and Health Promotion at Arizona State University, it’s very likely it is.

“There’s some evidence that the acetic acid in vinegar may turn on fat metabolism,” Johnston also said more studies need to be done in this area, but her research shows it is likely true that vinegar can help boost metabolism. She does warn that vinegar should be diluted with water.

“You hear people talk about shooting it straight, almost like they’re proud of it, but that’s not good for you,” she said.

Drinking it straight has been linked to damage in your esophagus and throat as well as tooth erosion. She recommends diluted two tablespoons of vinegar—either apple cider or red wine—with 8 ounces of water.
