Does drinking apple cider vinegar work for weight loss?

My colleague swears by apple cider vinegar for weight loss, saying he lost so much weight by drinking it daily. I'm a bit hesitant to try all these internet remedies. Does ACV really work for losing weight?

I drank a tablespoon of ACV in warm water every morning for three months. Honestly, I didn't see any drastic change in my weight, but it definitely helped reduce my bloating after heavy meals.

Yaar, don't stress too much about these trendy drinks! ACV might give a tiny boost, but it tastes so bad. Just eat clean, drink lots of water, and enjoy your workouts instead of forcing yourself to drink vinegar.

I have high blood pressure and tried ACV thinking it would help with both weight and BP. My doctor told me lifestyle modifications like salt reduction and daily walks are far more important. Don't rely on vinegar, focus on a proper checkup and cardio.

I tried it once and nearly coughed my lungs out, it is so sour. Honestly, if it worked for weight loss, we would all be thin by now. I'd rather sleep an extra hour than wake up to drink salad dressing.

There is very limited clinical evidence supporting apple cider vinegar as a primary agent for weight loss. It can support insulin management slightly, but a balanced diet is key. It is always best to consult a registered dietitian or your doctor for a sustainable weight loss plan.

My college-going daughter was desperate to lose weight and started drinking this after watching some videos online. It actually gave her bad acidity and stomach pain, so I made her stop. Please be careful with your kids trying these raw trends on empty stomachs.

I have seen this question pop up a lot here. The short answer is that ACV only helps slightly with metabolism and fullness, but it's not a shortcut. You still need to maintain a calorie deficit and do some basic physical activity to see real weight loss.
