  • 00:00:00
    today we're going to talk about apple
  • 00:00:01
    cider vinegar and the real reason that
  • 00:00:03
    it actually works to improve your
  • 00:00:05
    metabolism there many kinds of vinegar
  • 00:00:07
    that you usually find in the middle
  • 00:00:08
    aisle of the grocery store and apple
  • 00:00:11
    cider vinegar has been touted to be good
  • 00:00:14
    for weight loss right I used to hear
  • 00:00:16
    this all the time and I used to doubt it
  • 00:00:18
    but this has now been studied and it
  • 00:00:20
    actually works apple cider vinegar has
  • 00:00:23
    been shown to reduce harmful body fat
  • 00:00:25
    and help weight loss plus it actually
  • 00:00:28
    tastes pretty nice as well you can put
  • 00:00:29
    into salad dressing you can you make it
  • 00:00:31
    into a sauce or a glaze or you can add
  • 00:00:33
    it to a stew so I want to tell you what
  • 00:00:36
    changed my mind when I first heard that
  • 00:00:40
    apple cider vinegar could help weight
  • 00:00:41
    loss and I was watching people that I
  • 00:00:43
    knew uh Swig down spoonful of it in the
  • 00:00:45
    morning I thought that's got to be
  • 00:00:47
    rubbish where's the science there's no
  • 00:00:49
    reason that would actually work well as
  • 00:00:52
    a scientist I keep an open mind and so
  • 00:00:54
    when I see data uh new data on apple
  • 00:00:57
    cider vinegar that actually shows that
  • 00:00:59
    there's an activity I actually have to
  • 00:01:01
    take a look more closely at what's going
  • 00:01:04
    on so first of all apple cider vinegar
  • 00:01:07
    made from fermented apples it's got
  • 00:01:10
    vinegar in it okay and vinegar is the
  • 00:01:13
    chemical called acetic acid acetic acid
  • 00:01:17
    and this simple chemical acetic acid
  • 00:01:20
    prevents fat cells from growing up and
  • 00:01:24
    from building up uh storing itself in
  • 00:01:26
    adapost tissue the other thing that
  • 00:01:29
    acetic have been shown to do is it turns
  • 00:01:32
    down the genes the DNA that are
  • 00:01:35
    responsible for lipogenesis for creating
  • 00:01:38
    new fat cells and so um acetic acid
  • 00:01:41
    which is found in apple cider vinegar
  • 00:01:43
    actually is like gene therapy it turns
  • 00:01:45
    down the genes that actually makes your
  • 00:01:47
    fat grow as well the other thing that
  • 00:01:49
    acetic acid has been shown to do is it
  • 00:01:52
    improves your body's response to insulin
  • 00:01:55
    so it improves insulin sensitivity and
  • 00:01:58
    that means that when you eat something
  • 00:02:00
    with carbs or sugar in it it'll actually
  • 00:02:02
    help to lower your blood sugar into
  • 00:02:05
    healthier levels it's a process called
  • 00:02:07
    euglycemia acetic acid from vinegar
  • 00:02:09
    actually helps you get there so as it
  • 00:02:12
    turns out vinegar is really good for
  • 00:02:15
    metabolic Health okay and this is all
  • 00:02:18
    supported by clinical studies I want to
  • 00:02:20
    actually cite one of them there was a
  • 00:02:21
    study done in iich Japan that look at
  • 00:02:24
    the impact of apple cider vinegar on
  • 00:02:26
    body weight in 155 people between the
  • 00:02:29
    ages of 25 and 60 and these people were
  • 00:02:32
    considered obese in Japan now you know
  • 00:02:34
    Japan has small thin people but these
  • 00:02:37
    were people that um in Western countries
  • 00:02:40
    might not have been considered obese but
  • 00:02:41
    in Japan they were otherwise healthy all
  • 00:02:44
    right and what they did they broke these
  • 00:02:46
    people into uh a couple of different
  • 00:02:48
    groups one group got um low dose of
  • 00:02:51
    apple cider vinegar that's only one
  • 00:02:53
    tablespoon that's the low dose and the
  • 00:02:55
    other another group got three
  • 00:02:57
    tablespoons of apple cider vinegar
  • 00:02:59
    that's not high dose all right um now
  • 00:03:02
    what they did is they had the people
  • 00:03:04
    consume the apple cider vinegar
  • 00:03:05
    dissolved in a little bit of a beverage
  • 00:03:07
    water so it actually prevents teeth
  • 00:03:10
    damage and what they did is they had
  • 00:03:11
    these people the subjects consume apple
  • 00:03:13
    cider vinegar two times a day half of
  • 00:03:16
    the glass of water in the morning and
  • 00:03:18
    the other half at some point during the
  • 00:03:20
    day and there's a third group that
  • 00:03:21
    actually just got a placebo no apple
  • 00:03:23
    cider vinegar at all right so three
  • 00:03:25
    groups Placebo lowd dose apple cider
  • 00:03:29
    vinegar and high do apple cider vinegar
  • 00:03:31
    and they did this for four weeks and
  • 00:03:33
    what they found is that people that
  • 00:03:35
    drank apple cider vinegar all right
  • 00:03:37
    whether it's low dose or high dose began
  • 00:03:39
    losing weight um uh after just about
  • 00:03:42
    four weeks and people in the placebo
  • 00:03:44
    group actually didn't and by week 12
  • 00:03:47
    this is a three-month study those people
  • 00:03:50
    who had three tablespoons of apple cider
  • 00:03:52
    vinegar lost 4.2 pounds on the scale uh
  • 00:03:56
    or 50% more than those people who had
  • 00:03:58
    only one tablespoon of Apple CER vinegar
  • 00:04:01
    so the uh the uh higher dose actually
  • 00:04:04
    lost more weight and what was really
  • 00:04:06
    interesting is that the placebo group
  • 00:04:08
    did lose weight in fact the people
  • 00:04:10
    taking the placebo actually gained
  • 00:04:13
    weight while the apple cider vinegar
  • 00:04:15
    group lost weight so this is actually a
  • 00:04:17
    clinical study that proved exactly what
  • 00:04:19
    I had doubted and this is the evidence
  • 00:04:22
    that you have to pay attention to now
  • 00:04:24
    here's the other thing that was really
  • 00:04:25
    interesting and I think the important
  • 00:04:27
    part the apple cider vinegar drink ERS
  • 00:04:30
    lost harmful body fat all right they
  • 00:04:33
    lost visceral fat and their blood lipids
  • 00:04:37
    actually also improved the lipid profile
  • 00:04:39
    and their blood pressure also improved
  • 00:04:41
    probably because they lost body fat now
  • 00:04:44
    other apple cider vinegar Studies have
  • 00:04:47
    also looked at different parameters and
  • 00:04:49
    they found that people who drink apple
  • 00:04:50
    cider vinegar take apple cider vinegar
  • 00:04:52
    actually reduced waist circumference
  • 00:04:55
    right now your waist circumference which
  • 00:04:57
    is the belt around your waist actually
  • 00:05:00
    uh expands when you got a lot of
  • 00:05:02
    visceral fat this is the harmful body
  • 00:05:04
    fat and it shrinks when you actually
  • 00:05:06
    lose your visceral fat and apple cider
  • 00:05:08
    vinegar can actually shrink your
  • 00:05:11
    visceral fat and Shrink uh your waist
  • 00:05:13
    size okay so here are some vinegar Pro
  • 00:05:18
    tips first of all when you go shopping
  • 00:05:21
    for apple cider vinegar uh there's
  • 00:05:23
    usually a bunch of choices and I
  • 00:05:25
    encourage you to pick up uh the one that
  • 00:05:28
    attracts you the most and look at the
  • 00:05:30
    ingredient label you want to make sure
  • 00:05:31
    it's just pure apple cider vinegar all
  • 00:05:33
    right so many products uh especially in
  • 00:05:36
    the middle aisle have lots of other
  • 00:05:38
    ingredients that you don't really want
  • 00:05:39
    to put in your body so always look at
  • 00:05:41
    the ingredient label that's number one
  • 00:05:43
    uh number two is that uh uh you can do
  • 00:05:47
    research online to see if a brand that
  • 00:05:49
    you like actually has a good reputation
  • 00:05:51
    or not all right so go ahead um and you
  • 00:05:54
    don't want anything added to it but you
  • 00:05:55
    also want to see if anybody else any con
  • 00:05:57
    have any complaints uh about it now what
  • 00:06:01
    you got to realize is that although
  • 00:06:02
    apple cider vinegar is the type of
  • 00:06:04
    vinegar that was studied in the Japanese
  • 00:06:07
    study for example that I cited and some
  • 00:06:09
    others acetic acid is present in any
  • 00:06:12
    vinegar so you could swap out apple
  • 00:06:13
    cider vinegar for let's say white
  • 00:06:16
    vinegar or black vinegar or red wine
  • 00:06:20
    vinegar or balsamic vinegar okay that's
  • 00:06:23
    probably an expensive swap out or malt
  • 00:06:25
    vinegar which you'd find in a pub for
  • 00:06:27
    fish and chips or Sherry vinegar okay
  • 00:06:30
    all of these will be beneficial because
  • 00:06:32
    they all contain acetic acid that's a
  • 00:06:36
    key thing that you need to know about
  • 00:06:37
    any type of vinegar actually uh work now
  • 00:06:41
    how do you use these vinegars right
  • 00:06:42
    because you don't actually have to um
  • 00:06:44
    drink it uh out of a spoonful and by the
  • 00:06:47
    way again come back to the pro tip here
  • 00:06:50
    if you're going to do uh straight shots
  • 00:06:52
    of apple cider vinegar I encourage you
  • 00:06:54
    to actually put it into a glass of water
  • 00:06:56
    because over time one once or twice it's
  • 00:06:59
    not going to hurt you but over time if
  • 00:07:01
    you have that super acidic uh liquid in
  • 00:07:04

  • 00:07:41
    now back to the video so diluting it out
  • 00:07:45
    in a glass of water or some other
  • 00:07:46
    beverage actually will be helpful you
  • 00:07:48
    want to use water that's fine but if you
  • 00:07:51
    want to find something else uh think
  • 00:07:52
    about um tomato juice is another great
  • 00:07:55
    way to actually put a little bit of
  • 00:07:56
    apple cider vinegar it'll the flavor
  • 00:07:58
    will actually disappear into the
  • 00:07:59
    background especially if you don't like
  • 00:08:01
    the taste of vinegar a little Tangy all
  • 00:08:03
    right um uh here's another thing vinegar
  • 00:08:07
    is really really easy to buy a bottle
  • 00:08:09
    and store it in your pantry so this is
  • 00:08:12
    not something you got to go up and buy
  • 00:08:13
    all the time as long as you buy it keep
  • 00:08:16
    it in your pantry sealed up uh make sure
  • 00:08:19
    the cap is really tight because if air
  • 00:08:22
    gets in there you'll get more
  • 00:08:23
    fermentation uh and a little layer will
  • 00:08:26
    form it's called a mother you take it
  • 00:08:28
    out you can still use it but uh that's
  • 00:08:30
    something that you probably don't need
  • 00:08:31
    to have happen want to have happen so
  • 00:08:34
    seal it up make sure it's airtight put
  • 00:08:36
    in a dark cool place like your pantry
  • 00:08:38
    all right and in fact if you store your
  • 00:08:42
    vinegar properly it pretty much lasts
  • 00:08:44
    forever all right uh so uh this is
  • 00:08:47
    actually something this is actually
  • 00:08:48
    something that really really keeps for a
  • 00:08:49
    long uh time so now the other thing I
  • 00:08:52
    think is for you to know is that you can
  • 00:08:55
    use um apple cider vinegar and other
  • 00:08:57
    vinegars acetic acid in salad dressings
  • 00:09:00
    you can use it in uh sautes you can
  • 00:09:04
    actually put it on something you're
  • 00:09:05
    going to roast or bake lots of different
  • 00:09:07
    ways to actually get apple cider vinegar
  • 00:09:10
    into your um body and just think about
  • 00:09:12
    it one tablespoon or three tablespoons
  • 00:09:15
    actually gives you benefit that's not
  • 00:09:16
    very much at all anybody can actually do
  • 00:09:19
    it hope you got something out of this
  • 00:09:21
