I remember reading probably 6 years ago about some benefits from including apple cider vinegar and lemon juice in your diet. IIRC, among other things, they both help the body to use carbs more effectively, and ACV helps to keep the systems clean or something like that. I don't have the time to look it all up right now, but has anybody else heard of this and try to keep one or the other of these things in their diet? If you haven't, I can try to find the info that I'm referring to.
After reading that, I've been trying to keep both as a fairly regular part of my nutrition. I get very bored of plain water most times, so I add some lemon juice to my bottle when I fill it, which also helps me to drink as much water as I should. Unless you cook with it, which I don't like to do, ACV is a bit harder to get into the diet regularly. I'm not condoning this for everybody, but what I do is, before bed, take a shot and a half glass, fill it with ACV, throw it back and chase it with my protein shake. This has its downfalls (sometimes I don't get it back far enough; sometimes I get it back too far; one time it went out my nose and I couldn't bring myself to do it again for over a year), but seems to be the best way for me.
What are y'all's thoughts?
