• Does apple cider vinegar have any documented health benefits?

    Apple cider vinegar is a healthy drink made from apple fermentation that has the effects
    of detoxification, fat reduction, and weight loss. It is regarded as one of the best health
    drinks today.

    Apple cider vinegar is rich in pectin, vitamin C, malic acid, acetic acid, lactic acid, citric
    acid, tartaric acid, as well as iron, potassium, sodium, silicon, magnesium and other
    essential nutrients for the human body.


    Apple cider vinegar contains a lot of pectin. Pectin can directly act on the gastrointestinal
    tract and combine with fat in food to prevent the absorption of fat in the gastrointestinal
    tract, thus achieving the effect of weight loss.

    A Japanese study on adult obese patients showed that apple cider vinegar can significantly reduce body fat, lower cholesterol and triglycerides.

    The researchers asked 155 obese Japanese adults to consume 15 milliliters of apple
    cider vinegar (about one tablespoon) daily and record their weight, fat mass, cholesterol
    and triglycerides. It turns out that all three indicators of these people have been
    reduced.

    In addition, pectin will absorb water and expand after entering the body, increasing its
    volume by about 10 times, which can increase satiety, reduce appetite, and reduce the
    risk of obesity.
