Apple cider vinegar (ACV) can have some health benefits, but it's important to use it correctly. Consuming it three times a day might be excessive and could lead to potential side effects like tooth enamel erosion, digestive issues, and low potassium levels. It's generally recommended to dilute ACV in water and limit consumption to one or two tablespoons per day.
Back in 1976 me and my mom started the Atkinson diet and also found apple cider vinegar. We drank it one Table spoon in 1/2 cup of water after each meal and the weight fell off fast !
I did the Atkins diet and lost 10 pounds in 2 weeks in 1996. I read the book. I had done low fat and worked out and it took 2 years to lose 40 lbs of baby fat. Low fat was the diet and it’s not good.
You wouldn't say, "Back in 1976 me started the Atkins diet" because 'Back in 1976 I started the Atkins diet' sounds better and is correct So instead say, 'Back in 1976 my mom and I started the Atkins diet" You mention others before yourself because it's polite So saying 'Back in 1976 me and my mom' is both grammatically incorrect and technically rude

@@timdane6132 Whenever i drink something acidic (pretty much daily) I immediately rinse my mouth with some warm water or warm water with a small pinch of baking soda. I swish it around (including between teeth and on toungue) and repeat a couple of times. It takes 30 seconds. I just leave a small juice glass next to my kitchen sink for this purpose.
This is my experience from ACV My weight is 82kg i decided to buy ACV i drink 30mins before i eat my lunch because i always wake up late since i work at night. Then around 1pm i run with walk on a treadmill for only 30 mins. Then before i sleep i drink a Again. In 3 days from 82 now I'm 78kg Forgot to say at night i only eat 2 boiled eggs, boiled sweet potato and banana.😊
I've been using Chocolate Balsamic Vinegar for a month and it's decreased my blood glucose and I've lost 10lbs on a keto diet doing intermediate fasting 5 days a week
ACV can lower your potassium levels so be cautious. If you’re experiencing cramping or tightness in your muscles, then you may want to back off on the amount of ACV.
Dude, excellent info. I have watched you and Dr. Sten Eckberg for about a year now and just broke past my first 100 lbs lost (276 down from 384). I’m 33 and I feel amazing, but I’m looking for that next piece to add to my regimen of walking, HIIT, fasting, and low carb. I watched this video this morning but didn’t catch how much ACV to use and when I came back it’s stapled to the thumbnail. Perfect!
I'm 63, but so wish I had this knowledge in my late 20s'. when my lifestyle was putting pounds on me. Doing Keto and fasting for the past year and now building in regular use of ACV is making such a difference. Thomas, DeLauer, Dr Berg, Dr Ekberg, Dr Fung, Dr Jamnadas, Dr Peltz are my Gurus and can't thank them enough. I've gone from 132kg to 104kg and my target of 90-95kg is actually in realistic sight.
This is the first video I've ever seen of yours and I'm blown away. The info you shared was so informative and beneficial to me, thank you. Loved that you went into such detail about the timing of ACV. Starting this today and I'm already a pro at OMAD so I'm super hopeful and excited. Thanks again and God bless you always 😊
Fantastic breakdown of how to utilize and the benefits of apple cider vinegar! Listening to it multiple times to let it sink in. I’ve done ACV treatment for about 6 months now and seeing the fat on my stomach and back (the most stubborn ones) melt. Doing a double take and asking my husband to confirm to make sure my mind is not playing tricks on me or just my imagination! Also, my sugar craving has disappeared! 😮 🙏
Hi. The short answer: I take it first thing in the morning. And again at night after dinner or before going to bed. If you want more details, see below. Good Luck. 🍀 I drink plain seltzer water first to satiate my thirst (I just like seltzer water in stead of regular water). Then I add 1 teaspoon of ACV to half a cup of seltzer water and drink that. I don’t eat for another 2-3 hours often times but I do drink a cup of coffee after 20-30 minutes if I want to. I add 1 teaspoon of cream to it or half teaspoon of butter (no sugar or milk so I can stay in ketosis). I try to fast for 16 hours after my last meal. The combination of keto, intermittent fasting and ACV seem to work well.

It's not the same apple cider unfortunately. Kate Perry bought them out and is in partnership with Bill Gates. It has high inflammatory oils in it with fake apples put in it.
Hoy, I have a serious question. I'm new to all of this, my doctor says I'm pre type two diabetic. I'm a male, 65, 6'2".a little over weight 240 pounds. With all the remedies I'm seeing, what if. What if I combine a tablespoon of Ceryan? Cinnamon, a tablespoon of turmeric, a tablespoon of Apple Cider Vinegar, a tablespoon of Olive oil in a glass of warm water with a few shakes of black pepper and drink that every morning or every night? .... What do you think? I'm eating as healthy as I can. Three hard boiled eggs in the morning. Blueberries, Blackberries and Raspberries through the day. Some leafy greens with salmon and steak every night. (I work at a nice restaurant.) Yes I need to go for walks and join a gym. But what about my drink concoction? Thank you.
I've been drinking about a T of Apple Cider Vinegar in a tall glass of water 1/2 hour before I eat. I am an OMAD or 2 meals/day gal. I've lost 20 pounds over 3 1/2 years and built lots of lean muscle. (Yoga, swimming, pushups, lunges, squats, ab work) and I think the vinegar keeps my blood sugar from spiking too high when I finally eat. I eat low carb, decent protein but I will splurge for an occasional birthday cake, glass of wine, a pasta dinner...but all after I eat my nutritious foods, always including lots of veggies. I love, love your content, Thomas! Thanks!
I make something called Good Girl Moonshine and it tastes delicious! It’s 2 tablespoons of ACV, 1 tsp of ground ginger, 1/2 tsp of cinnamon, splash of real vanilla extract, and stevia…put all ingredients into a quart size jar, add ice, and fill with water. Very tasty 😊
Bio-Chemist indicates that it does not have to be ACV but that any edible vinegar that has acetic acid in it will bring the same results slowing the breakdown of carbs and sugars into glucose which decreases those glucose spikes by up to 30%. White vinegar works and is less expensive than the trendy ACV.
I started doing ACV and organic lemeon juice in the mornings a few years ago. So far so good. Only thing to watch is, rinse your mouth out right after doing the ACV. I have not had a cavity in decades. My dentist and I were shocked with me having 3 fairly large cavities on my last visit. I do not drink pop or eat candy often at all so, my only addition /habit change was the ACV, so be careful. Rinse rinse rinse.
I drink mine first thing in the morning. I also drink it with honey before mowing my lawn and other yard work. It’s amazing!!! I feel like a Spartan warrior after drinking it.
Apple cider vinegar (1 tablespoon in a cup of water) is highly acidic so NEEDS to be taken via a straw to protect teeth, or taken via a pill. Also - there should be some "off days" to give the kidneys some recovery time.
Or just neutralize it with potassium bicarbonate. Also, the kidneys should be fine with vinegar. Vinegar is what your body burns in the krebs cycle. The acidic byproducts of energy metabolism like lactate come from the steps of chopping up glucose into vinegar.
I have also heard about apple cider vinegar impacting the kidneys negatively. I can’t remember where, but I have a feeling a quick Google search will yield something on the topic. Nevertheless, I do consume apple cider vinegar almost every day. Until now, I questioned whether it was the best thing to have first thing in the morning, but if Thomas says it’s a good time to drink it, that’s when I’m going to drink it. I also like it with meals and after watching this video I am going to start having it at night as well . I think the thing that we need to watch out for is the quantity. I suspect that if you are consuming more than two ounces a day per 100 pounds of body weight, you might be consuming too much of it, so if you’re going to have it in the morning and at night and with meals and in between meals, I would use it very sparingly per drink. Per 100 pounds of body weight, one full teaspoon per drink should be sufficient.
For those that can't stomach drinking acv you can mix it with olive oil and use it as a dressing for a small salad if taking with/before a meal. If you mix acv, olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, lemon juice, a little fish/cod liver oil you can turn a dressing into a powerhouse.
@@MWLynch100 theres less risk eating it with other foods than drinking it straight. the alkaline foods cut down on the acidity. but having said that. if you are taking it straight (like i do 3x/day), make sure you dilute with a large glass of water, drink it with a straw placed _behind_ your teeth, then rinse/swallow some water afterwards. you wont damage your teeth. and youre body will thank you.
I knew a 12 year old that quickly destroyed her tooth enamel with daily lemon juice/lemons, be sure you protect your teeth. Maybe rinse immediately with plain water, maybe use straws too.
Yes- it absolutely destroys teeth which can lead to other health issues- tooth infection, long term damage, chronic teeth & gum infections , tooth loss . Oral health is so important for whole body health too
Back about 5 years ago when I first found your videos (as I was getting into fasting and searching for info daily), I got into the ACV every morning routine - just a "quick shot" - and it helped me cut a LOT, really cleaved up my body. Seeing this today makes me think it might be time to go back to that again. Don't really need more cuts, but this concept of putting mitochondria and the whole metabolism in general into a more "fasting simulated" state sounds like a great way to keep systems nominal without needing to fast as much to do so... Good stuff here... as always!!!
People need to know that it doesn’t have to be apple cider vinegar. It’s the acetic acid in all vinegars. Red wine vinegar, white wine vinegar even plane ole vinegar if you could stomach it. Bottom line it’s the acetic acid present in vinegar.
I am just relieved this Tuber didn't pull any stupid marketing trickery. Well yeah, the meat and sustenance of the vid took place in the final 5 seconds but I am not being redirected to a link to another place on the internet where there are packages and payment plans to get most out of what he said in those 5 final seconds. Was still sharing easy access knowledge because he is a good samaritan and if obesity/weight loss is officially categorically as a disease in the scientific text? Then not making that information readily available unless it is paid for would actually be inhumane. So it's appreciated that even tho you could have tried to make an extra dollar, you didn't, and it authenticated/validated the genuine value of watching this vid.
I add ACV almost every drink or foods( yogurts, salad, lemon water, or water or coffee ), I add / drink 2 tea spoon with 150 ml water before I sleep at night ) just used to it, not for any weight loss, diabetes etc, just add
Is there any reason to worry about it being too harsh on your gut? I’m new to ACV but I’ve mostly heard it should be taken only once every 24 hours, not sure why yet.
I've found that the best way for me to get down ACV is to add equal amounts ACV and lemon juice to my electrolyte powder drink. Mine is watermelon flavor and it helps a lot to make ACV drinkable for me. 2 tbsp ACV, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 1 scoop watermelon Keto K1000 Electrolyte Powder in 16 oz water.
What kind of ACV do you drink? Unfiltered, dark golden/brown doesn't taste bad at all just with water and after the first shock you can actually savor it like people do with alcohols or tea! Stuff has really complex flavour profile and is actually sweet-ish under the immediate acidity
I do the same with my Ultima electrolyte drink, which is lemonade flavor. I put it in 16oz of lemon water, splash of volcano lemon juice, with the acv. Tastes good, great hydration in the morning after a night of sleep.
@@dubyuellem7534 Seems like GREAT MINDS think alike. For years I would drink acv, lemon juice, fruit flavored electrolyte powder in water every morning and felt great. While everyone else was drinking coffee.
Question Thomas.. I fast from 6:00pm to 10:00 am daily. Should I take in the morning and also how much ACV is too much without lowering potassium? Thanks
I squeeze half a lemon and 2 tablespoons of acv 1st thing in the morning on empty stomach and same dosage about an hour before bedtime. I going to do the mid afternoon dosage now after seeing this video Thanks for the insight tomas, I also take enzymes and a probiot capsule as well.I just turned 50 and look and feel like 30 yrs young n strong 💪
@@nishchal11a Hi,I take chewable enzymes with my meals for better digestion and my high billions of probiotics capsules at night to ensure healthy gut bacteria
Just make sure to brush or rinse your mouth/teeth with something to neutralize the acid. The Brits love their vinegar in everything and look at their teeth.
Thank you Thomas. Love your videos. I see taking ACV before bed did not make the top 3 best times. Is it worth taking again before bed? Thanks for your answer.
@@propheteyebert7063 Yes, I knew that. When I come back from my 40-mile bike ride, I’ve lost 4 lbs of water weight. It’s pretty amazing when you think about it!
I've been taking ACV first thing in the morning (1 tablespoon diluted in a glass of water, drink with a straw) for 2 months and get no effect on my diabetes
The connection of ACV to the body’s use of both lipids and mitochondria makes me wonder of it could help people who were injured by the spike protein transfections that we’ve been euphemistically calling vaccines.
Things that are opposite can both be good for the body… like cryotherapy and heat therapy. Both are good for you. In the case of acv or alkaline water, one could be better than the other depending on a person’s particular health conditions, or the time you take it, etc. Like you definitely shouldn’t have alkaline water with or near a meal because your stomach needs to be acidic to digest your food. But acv at or near a meal is great.
I have been using ACV for lots of things for 30+ years, but really, really have never liked the taste. Recently thought to put a shot in my "Bubly" brand lime fizzy water, and oh boy is that delicious - especially as a summer sip! That sure took a while for me to figure out! 😊
Ya I do it with just flavorless cold sparkling (carbonated) water and it actually taste great !!! I hate the taste with regular water especially warm regular water
This explains a lot. As you suggested, for other reasons, I started including ACV with everything: gym water, table water a breakfast, lunch, and dinner. When at the computer, I have a water with a ACV. You've made me a ACV junkie! Thanks!! ☺
Thank you all for your comments, and yes my consumption of ACV is low, and supplemented with an entire array of foods and supplements design to enhance my performance, and health.
I started taking apple cider vinegar twice a day and after a week I started puking up mucus and can't keep food or water down. I haven't eaten in 10 days now and I'm dehydrated.
I use lemon and ginger juice along with the ACV, 2tbsp each and mix with 12-16 oz of cold water, its delicious. All of these compounds help to break up mucus so its your body discharging excess. As a 6'1 190lb male i drink about 3L (3/4 gallon) of water a day. Stay hydrated!
@Psi-Ink headed to the er today because it doesn't seem to be getting better. I've never had an issue like this until I started taking apple cider vinegar. Maybe a coincidence but idk.
It must be a coincidence. Maybe something you ate. Food poisoning? Either way.. activated charcoal will definitely help. You should try that first before you rack up a hospital bill. Good luck hun.
I have tried this, and it doesn't work. What does as boring as it is. By watching calories in a healthy diet and plenty of exercise. Also, train to slightly above your fitness level. I was 80 kilos overweight and would try and train like a professional footballer and hurt myself. So after the millionth time, I listened to my missus and started of slow and steady, and I am now after 2 years 80 kg. Slow and steady hard work and discipline will get you there.
I've been taking acv for 2 years, 2 tablespoons am and pm. I eat healthy, work out 3x a week, rarely eat more than 2 meals per day, I've stayed at 232 lbs, no weight loss. I'm 68 and 6 foot tall. Think I'll try with each meal, just to say I did.
I put a shot of ACV, cayenne pepper, garlic pickle juice & lime wedge in bottle water. Tastes like a spicy bloody Mary without tomatoe juice. I love the taste & it really wakes me up in the morning!
I've been using (heavily diluted) acv for years due to reflux issues. ACV does *not* replace or make up for a bad diet full of rubbish carbs and take aways. Diet / lifestyle change *has* to come first. Treat acv merely as a supplement. I only started to see noticeable and necessary fat / weight loss via pretty (not hyper) strict keto / healthy food intake. Previously to this I was putting on bad weight while on acv.
Thanks Thomas. I started carnivore today after losing 110 lbs on Keto and hitting a stall. After lunch, I got indigestion. I drank a bit of ACV and felt much better, but I will definitely do what you are suggesting for now on. God bless.
Cavemen ? Sitting around fire , chomping on fried pig carcass asses ? Fancy name = keto . Same Google college light educated "experts" talk about Apple cider vinegar , turmeric , olive oil , omega 3 and other simple topics every yoyo can " understand" . Simple solutions for simple minded
@@mashaimmalik8718 Whole Foods only. No wheat, no corn and no soy! 😊 no seed oils ( canola, soybean, sunflower, vegetable oil etc) no starches. No sugar( fruit is sugar! Especially juices) maybe a handful berries a day. Practice intermittent fasting, at least 16 hours a day of fasting. No more artificial sweeteners except stevia. Ok and….. Go!
Not convinced about the science, but enjoy the refreshing taste when I wake up in the morning. Take 25ml ACV in 500ml water, and have done this for the last 5 years. There is an equal mix of health gurus on RU-vid - those who are for and those who are against Apple cider vinegar. Is is doing me any good - who knows. Recent blood work showed low triglycerides and TG/HDL ratio of 0.6, but this is probably due to low carb diet.
I go to the gym at 5 in the morning as well. I tried the ACV first thing in the morning before working out, and I got nauseous during my workouts. I switched it up and drank a shot after my workouts. It was the right thing to do for me because I had food on my stomach after my workouts. Try it and see what happens. Everyone is different. Hope this helps.
