vinegar


In the course of trying to establish some healthy new habits, I've been reading lots of things about the fat-fighting power of vinegar. Most of the sources I've checked out recommend taking 1-2 tablespoons of vinegar (from what I gather, any type of vinegar is good, but apple cider vinegar is the best) a day to help aid in burning fat, as well as helping maintain a good metabolism. Apparently this fat-fighting benefit has long been rumored about vinegar, but never tested...until recently. Now there seems to be quite a buzz about having the science to prove it. Anyway, I actually like vinegar (especially on fries...oh, wait...guess that would kind of defeat the purpose, huh?) so it's no big burden to me to have a swallow or two every day. There's other health benefits of vinegar too. Check them out here if you like...http://www.apple-cider-vinegar-benefits.com/index.html

Jess - I have been drinking a blend of apple cider vinegar, apple juice and white grape juice for some time. It has lowered my chlostrol(sp). The doctor said to keep doing what I was doing. So go for it. I am not sure I could drink it straight - maybe I will try it some morning. Dad
