Serious, this is the first time I am hearing of this.. I thought that vinegar is acidic, if it is acidic, can you imagine the effect of it in your body.

I have heard that it helps with weight loss and with general health, but I don't know why and I don't know if it is true or not, so sorry I can't help much.

Yes this is true but it has to be apple cider vingear. I was told to drink it straight. You can buy the apple cider vingear in pills now.

I've heard of it. You can actually get some supplement pills here that are vinegar that you can take. Apparently, and if I'm remembering correctly, vinegar is supposed to curb your appetite. My mom takes them off and on but I don't think she does it consistently enough for it to have any effect.

I've heard of people drinking cider vinegar to lose weight and for health benefits, this is slightly different to the usual malt vinegar that we would put on our food.

Yes it works. My mom and me lost weight taking apple cider vinegar three times a day before a meal with a little honey in it. I cannot stand the stuff now. but I lost 42 pounds using it. Thank goodness they are apple cider vinegar pills out now days and they don't cost as much as most diet pills probably less then $5.00 a bottle. Well, if you try this good luck.

all i know is that the vinegar will help our body to clean up the excesses oils in our body. But i am worry with the continues usage of the vinegar as it will cause our intestine hurt because this thing is hot. But again i said i am not sure about this thing.

Neither have I heard of it. I have heard of vinegar helping to prevent weight gain and not lose weight. It is better to take vinegar in place of other preserved sauces like ketchup or chill. Showering with alternate hot and cold water might be better alternative :P
