Apple cider vinegar diet: minus 5 kg in 5 days

Apple cider vinegar in certain doses can indeed be useful: to a certain extent, it regulates acid-base metabolism and improves the secretory function of the stomach. Stimulation of metabolic processes in the body, as a rule, increases efficiency, a person has a feeling of lightness. And if you manage to lose three to five kilograms in a week, then your mood improves.

However, not everything is so simple and safe in this “power supply system”. Apple cider vinegar contains 7% acid – in fact, it triggers the processes that contribute to weight loss. But besides the benefits, acid can cause considerable harm to the body: disrupt the acid-base balance, damage the gastric mucosa, and ruin tooth enamel.

Why is useful apple cider vinegar?

In addition to the fact that this acidic product starts metabolism and improves digestive processes, it also reduces appetite: you want less harmful cakes. The acidic environment reduces the number of pathogenic bacteria and fungi in the gastrointestinal tract and normalizes the microflora.

Natural apple cider vinegar contains a bunch of useful trace elements: magnesium, calcium, potassium, iron, sodium. It also contains organic acids – glycolic, malic, as well as citric and acetic acids.

Apple cider vinegar is also a great anti-inflammatory agent. By the way, many of the “usefulness” of apple cider vinegar are still not fully understood: it is known that it just works – and that’s it!

How to lose weight with apple cider vinegar?

Before you go on such a diet, make sure that you are completely healthy. The main contraindications to it are from the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, you can lose weight on vinegar only if you have neither gastritis, nor stomach or duodenal ulcers, nor inflammation of the intestinal walls. Diet is not suitable even if you suffer from high acidity, suffer from reflux (heartburn). Have you faced similar problems? Alas, the vinegar diet is not suitable for you.

Vinegar must be diluted: 1 teaspoon in 1 glass of water. And to drink this solution at the rate – for 30 kg of weight 1 glass of “vinegar water” – this is how the mechanism of weight loss starts.

You can lose weight for three days: before each meal you need to drink vinegar water. At the same time, it will help fill the stomach, and the appetite will no longer be so brutal. On the second day, you need to add a couple more receptions: in the morning and in the evening before going to bed, in total – 1 liter. Many people advise drinking vinegar in the morning on an empty stomach, but you should not do this – even diluted vinegar can harm the walls of the digestive tract. The third day is unloading on apples: you can drink water with apple cider vinegar whenever you want, plus eat 3-4 apples a day. The most difficult thing is to hold out on this particular day, it is the most “hungry” day.

We repeat: even if you are confident in your health, you must observe the following rules:

• Drink only diluted vinegar.
• Drink only natural apple cider vinegar (best of all – homemade).
• Drink diluted vinegar only after meals, in no case do this on an empty stomach.
• After each vinegar intake, rinsing your mouth with water will help you avoid dental problems.
• At the first alarming symptoms, stop taking Aksus and consult a gastroenterologist.

Alarming symptoms can be pain or just discomfort in the stomach, aching pain on the right under the ribs, bloating and pain when pressing on the stomach, nausea, lack of appetite during the day.

What are acetic and citric acid for?

Apple cider vinegar or lemon juice makes sense to use in order to raise the level of acidity in the stomach. This, in turn, contributes to the accelerated breakdown of food.

In addition, vinegar speeds up digestive processes and reduces appetite. An acidic environment reduces the number of pathogenic bacteria and normalizes the microflora. Also, natural apple cider vinegar contains many useful elements. For example, magnesium, calcium, potassium, iron and sodium. It also contains organic acids – glycolic, malic and, of course, citric and acetic.

Moreover, apple cider vinegar is considered an excellent anti-inflammatory agent.

Is the vinegar diet effective?

Some of those who have tried the vinegar diet believe that this is a fairly effective way and it is quite possible to lose those extra pounds. Careful and sensible use of apple cider vinegar really allows you to lose weight, the expert believes. It helps reduce appetite and burn fat, and also helps get rid of cellulite.

At the same time, you do not need to expose your body to stressful situations and severe restrictions, sharply refuse various foods, starve, and even more so exhaust yourself with many hours of training.

To lose weight, vinegar is diluted in water in the following proportion: one teaspoon per glass of water. You need to drink this solution at the rate of one glass per 30 kg of weight. That is, a person weighing 60 kg needs to drink two glasses daily.

Why is such a diet dangerous?

You need to be extremely careful with the use of acetic and citric acids, especially for problems with the gastrointestinal tract. In this case, you should refrain from “vinegar” diets. And if you still want to try, the nutritionist recommends drinking water through a straw. Also, after use, you should rinse your mouth, as tooth enamel reacts poorly to an acidic environment.

And the most important thing. No magic remedy is magical by itself. All nutritionists who recommend a vinegar diet to their patients also advise them to eat less fatty meat and fish, butter, white bread, pastries, pasta, white polished rice, alcohol and sweets, and drink enough mineral water – up to 2 liters per day. And of course, do not lie on the couch all these days: walk more, run in the park, sign up for a pool or dance. The effect will only be more noticeable!
