Yup I use it all the time. I use Braggs brand. It's good for cooking, drinking and as a clarifying rinse for your hair. The cloudiness is the "mother". It contains a small amount of Protein and s much better for you than regular filtered apple cider vinegar. The protein is good for your hair. I like the taste and occasionally will add a capful to my Water. It's good for the digestion so for those experiencing Constipation it might be helpful to use. I've heard reports of it helping people to clear their skin up, but I don't really have problem skin. I also use a tiny bit when cooking vegetables and I like using it to make salad dressings or vinegar based cole slaws.

A capful in 8 ounces of Water. Typically that first drink of the day before Breakfast. I don't drink it everyday, maybe 3 times a week. It's sold lots of places. My local produce market carries it, the health food stores and Whole Foods. I think I've even seen it at Acme.

You can buy it in any store. It doesn't have to be organic or even have the "mother" mentioned above. In fact, it doesn't have to be apple cider vinegar specifically. Any vinegar will work. People who take it claim it helps them in almost every disease or disorder imaginable. However, the truth is there's no evidence it works. Also, there is a drawback. Drinking vinegar, even diluted, can seriously harm your teeth and can lead to stomach issues. So drink it sparingly. People who drink it use 1-2 teaspoons per normal size glass of Water, about 8oz as mentioned above. I've tried it and I can tell you that 2 teaspoons is too much and will burn your stomach and tastes awful.

Clearly mileage varies here. Personally I've never used more than a tsp. I like the flavor. It has never burned my stomach. However the major difference is there is no Protein in the filtered clear brands and there is in the organic brands.

My daughter (no weight issues) takes a couple tablespoons stirred into a glass of Water every day - she was told her PH was off. It's helped immensely, and her acne cleared up right away. She went off it for a week and noticed the difference immediately.

I tried taking it for a while (pre-op) and found it no help to me at all - but hey, we're all different! Let us know how it goes-- :unsure:

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
