Can Apple Cider Vinegar Help You Lose Weight?

Apple cider vinegar is an age-old home remedy that Hippocrates was said to have used. But it wasn’t until the book Folk Medicine: A Vermont Doctor’s Guide to Good Health, written by D.C. Jarvis, M.D., was published in 1958 that the medicinal use of apple cider vinegar took off.

Recently, it has become popular again for weight loss and diabetes. It's often promoted as a “fat-burner” and natural appetite suppressant. In fact, there’s even an apple cider vinegar diet, which involves taking one to three teaspoons of apple cider vinegar or apple cider vinegar pills before each meal.
