Now, as far as vinegar and LC or weight loss, I personally have not
heard of any benefits. However, I'd certainly look at any
credible
reports.

+++++++++++

Personally, I take a TBS a day of it with a little water and 1/8
tsp
salt substitute mixed in. I have been doing that for a long time
now.
Couldn't hurt, might help, and I like the taste.

Uhm, why couldn't it hurt? Wouldn't a more rational approach be:
Might help, probably won't hurt, and I like the taste.
Just because it's natural doesn't mean it's inherently safe and
just because there aren't studies condemning it, doesn't mean
that it doesn't have long term health consequences that are
slow and not pleasant. Lacking any studies on it, it
might actually be hurting weight loss. Who knows? Not I.
One way or another.

Not contributing any knowledge on ACV, just pointing out that
"Couldn't hurt, might help" is a position of uncertainty on both
counts, not only the help side.

Well, in my long term study on myself...it hasn't hurt, and might have
helped...I started taking it many years ago when I read in an old folk
remedy book that it helps to prevent food poisoning. Does it? I
wouldn't know, though I haven't had food poisoning. Also, how could it
hurt? If you used it mixed with olive oil every day on a salad, do you
think it would be harmful? I don't. YMMV

Here's the pathology.balance, vinegar being fairly acidic.
In the day to day, and even year to year, no big deal. But
the accumulated damage of say, 30-40 years of use could
wear things out, by tipping a fairly acid environment (your
digestive tract) into a more acidic one.

If the 30-40 year pattern doesn't suit you, I can point you
to type 2 diabetes, a disease generally earned through 30
years of systemic abuse.

Again, it probably doesn't hurt and it might help. Couldn't
is strong language in a world ruled by uncertainty.

If you're afraid of your salad dressing, that's up to you, but at my
age, I am not the least bit concerned with a 30-40 year pattern that
"could" do this or that, since so very many things "could" do this or
that over that time span. My best advice to you is...don't use it if
you don't want to, but for me, I'll continue to use it because...I
believe it couldn't hurt, might help.Take care.
