Does Apple Cider Vinegar Help with Weight Loss: Fact or Fiction?

Updated on 3 November 2023

Apple cider vinegar (ACV) has been touted as a miracle cure for various health issues, including weight loss. Proponents claim that consuming ACV for weight loss can suppress appetite, increase metabolism, and aid in fat burning. However, these claims have been met with skepticism, and some experts have even warned against the potential dangers of consuming ACV in large amounts. In this article, we will separate fact from fiction: does apple cider vinegar help with weight loss.

What is Apple Cider Vinegar?

Apple cider vinegar (ACV) is a type of vinegar made from fermented apples. During the fermentation process, the natural sugars in the apples are converted into alcohol, which is then further fermented into acetic acid. This acetic acid is what gives apple cider vinegar its sour taste and pungent smell. It is important to note that not all types of apple cider vinegar are created equal, and some may be more beneficial than others such as apple cider vinegar with mother.

ACV is available in various forms and formulations such as ACV juice, gummies and tablets. Mylo offers 100% Natural ACV Tablets containing apple cider vinegar with mother, pomegranate and Vitamins B6 and B12. They offer numerous benefits such as improving metabolism, controlling appetite, promoting gut health, toning muscles and relieving stress. And Mylo ACV Tablets are made with effervescent technology, which means you can dissolve them quickly in a glass of water and your apple cider vinegar is ready to drink!

Myths and Facts About ACV and Weight Loss

If you’re wondering does apple cider vinegar help with weight loss, we are debunking the most common myths concerning ACV and weight loss:

Myth #1: ACV is a Magic Bullet for Weight Loss

If you’re under the impression that apple cider vinegar is a magic bullet for weight loss, then that’s not so. While ACV can aid in weight loss by suppressing hunger and boosting metabolism, it’s not a quick fix. You must complement ACV for weight loss with regular exercise, dietary changes and a healthy lifestyle.

Myth #2: Drinking ACV on an Empty Stomach Melts Fat Away

There is no scientific evidence to support the claim that drinking apple cider vinegar (ACV) on an empty stomach can melt fat away. However, consuming ACV in the morning on an empty stomach can promote a healthy gut microbiome, stabilize blood sugar levels and improve metabolism. This may help with healthy digestion and subsequently, weight management.

Myth #3: ACV Suppresses Appetite and Reduces Cravings

Yes, apple cider vinegar can help reduce food cravings. ACV contains acetic acid, which helps manage food cravings by balancing blood sugar levels and making you feel fuller for longer. Additionally, studies have shown that ACV can reduce appetite and increase satiety, making it easier to stick to a low-calorie diet.

Myth #4: ACV Boosts Metabolism and Burns Calories

Although some studies in obese rats and mice suggest that acetic acid can prevent fat deposition and improve metabolism, there is not enough scientific evidence to support the claim that ACV can boost metabolism and burn calories in humans. However, ACV may help control appetite and promote weight loss by suppressing appetite and slowing down digestion of starch.

Myth #5: ACV Can Replace Healthy Habits for Weight Loss

Just because apple cider vinegar aids in weight loss, it does not mean that it can replace healthy habits. So, as you begin consuming ACV for weight loss, don’t forget to make healthy changes in your lifestyle such as exercising regularly, eating healthy foods, minimizing junk foods and staying active.

The Potential Risks of Consuming Too Much ACV

Consuming too much ACV can cause several health risks, including tooth decay, indigestion, and possible muscle weakness and paralysis in some cases. ACV is acidic and can affect the body's regulation of blood sugar levels, which can be particularly worrisome for those with diabetes.

Consuming high amounts of vinegar can also lead to nausea, indigestion, and burns or irritation when applied undiluted to the skin. To avoid these side effects, it is recommended to consume vinegar in moderation, dilute it with water, and limit contact with teeth. People with digestive issues, low potassium levels, or diabetes should also consult a doctor before consuming ACV.

The Bottom Line: What the Science Says About ACV for Weight Loss

So, does apple cider vinegar help with weight loss? Studies show it can promote satiety and reduce calorie intake. However, ACV alone may not lead to weight loss without exercise. A healthy diet and regular exercise remain the most effective ways to achieve sustainable weight loss.
