BENEFITS:
1. WEIGHT-LOSS:
- According to Harvard health publishing, Studies in obese rats and mice suggest that acetic acid can prevent fat deposition and improve their metabolism. The most widely quoted study of humans is a 2009 trial of 175 people who consumed a drink containing 0, 1, or 2 tablespoons of vinegar each day. After three months, those who consumed vinegar had modest weight loss (2 to 4 pounds)
2. PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome)
-There are several studies that have shown that apple cider vinegar increases insulin sensitivity, which decreases insulin resistance. A trial was done where seven women with PCOS took one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar once per day for 40 days. After 40 days, an observation was made where four of the women had resumed their menstrual cycle with ovulation. All seven women had a significant reduction in insulin resistance, and five had less androgen production.

Diluting a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar before meals may helps relieve symptoms of SIBO by increasing the acidity in your stomach.
