I am from Toronto, Canada. I have been following your posts for about a year now. I was 315 lbs. Since doing intermittent fasting and using apple cider vinegar I have lost 65 lbs. Thank you Dr Berg.
Wow- that is wonderful! Thank you for sharing! Would you mind using this link to share your success story and tell us more about your journey? www.drberg.com/add-client-success-story We'd love to hear about it!
I'm 71 and started IMF in March of this year. When I started I was pre-diabetic, my waist was 44", I weighed 244 pounds and could barely walk up a flight of stairs without being completely winded. Now I eat 2 KETO meals a day; one at 1:30pm and one at 5:30pm. I have my ACV drink when I get up before I have my coffee and I have another AVC drink at 8 or 9pm. As of today 7/31/2021 I've lost 40 pounds, 5" inches off my waist, my blood sugar is near normal, and I can walk up 5 flights of stairs without feeling winded. I owe it all to Dr Berg and Dr Jason Fung.
@@steveross4151Thanks to Drs Chaffee, Westman and Berry I went carnivore in Jan of 2023. Waist is now 32. Weight is 165. Blood pressure is 128/62. My last blood tests came back the best since I was 55. At my last physical at the VA in Oct 2023 my doc was amazed at both my physical appearance (lean) and my blood work.
I started taking ACV three days ago as you suggested. The most miraculous event occurred. I had a painful coccyx when sitting or laying down. On the 2nd day it went away. I’m so relieved. I put two tablespoons in water and drink it. I also dropped 3.3 lbs in such a short time.
Hey Dr. Berg. A friend had introduced me to your videos and the intermittent fasting has helped me so much. I was 267 pounds and now I'm at 197 pounds. I'm still working on getting down but I feel good. I also had went to the doctor for a check up and usually my blood pressure is usually high, but not this time, it it was 122/88 and the doctor was also surprised with my weight as well. Thank you Dr. Berg.
I have had peripheral neuropathy for 12 years. I suffered Much discomfort in feet including burning and a weird uncomfortable feeling at night. Near end of February 2023 I started drinking 1 tbsp of ACV in 8 Oz water. The next night the very uncomfortable feeling in my feet disappeared. And I was able to stop taking my usual dose of 1200 mg of alpha lipoic acid caps at bedtime. 18 days later my feet are still doing great. No more nerve pain/burning in feet. So, my foot pain discomfort is now gone bc of ACV.
Yes, Dr. Berg I am benefiting immensely from all your advice. January 31 of 2021 is when I decided to lose weight. I’ve used intermittent fasting as well as cut out fast food and sweets. My goal is to go back to wearing a size 4. I’m now at a size 6. I was a size 14 in the beginning of the year.
Dear Dr Berg My husband has been a diabetic for 16 years and he used to wake up in the middle of the night with low blood sugar and he would then have to eat something and also feeling very sick ever since weve been using apple cider vinegar (thanks to you) hes been sleeping well all night he could even lower the amount of his insulin injection thank you so much
Been a diabetic for about 8 years, I'm on a shot, metformin and glimiperide. I started fasting Thursday and Friday. Did it today for 16 hours. Just doing that I feel better. I stopped taking my insulin shot and today my sugar was around 160. I know I have a ton of work to do and watching your videos and reading comments have inspired me to pick back up the keto lifestyle.
Update, I'm actually doing really well. I go I'm about a month to get this a1c checked. Today I actually dabbled in some fruit and my buddy handled it just fine woot woot
@@matthewbailey3158 I've not long been diagnosed type 2 I was over weight I did keto diet and traine in morning 6 days a week I also fast 18 /6 every day in just 2 months I've lost over 2 stone I went from 17 St 5lbs to 14stone 8lbs my goal is to get to 13 stone...I'm only on 1 metformin tab daily I get my second blood check June the 17th...Good luck on your journey mate
I fell off the wagon last night and ate a bowl of ice cream. Today, I feel like trash. I really haven't missed the blood sugar spikes since I've been on keto and can't wait to feel better. Now, every time I see an overweight person, the first thing I think of is "liver problems" Thank you for putting this critical information out there for us all. You're really doing the community a great service and I truly believe you are saving lives.
All my life on diets, all my life feeling miserable, depress, hungry,.... I discovered Keto, I discovered ACV and, is a change of mind. Dr Berg is one of my favorites. No more heartburn!!!!!!
One of his videos said to take the ACV before each meal. I’m doing this program for one week , trying to get my hormones balanced. I’ve noticed a better feeling, one I cannot describe. Cutting out all the junk and reading labels. I’m hooked on his videos and want more knowledge bc the changes I’ve made made be feel so well. Glad I found this site.
Thank you so much for your informative videos, Dr. Berg. I have lost 35 pounds since June of this year. Watching my carbs, taking refined white sugar out of my diet, no white refined flour either. It has made the world of difference. Thanks again, for bringing your knowledge and insight into healthier lifestyles to this medium at no cost. You are helping many people to improve their health.
If you cook, be sure you buy baking soda without aluminum. I had no idea it had aluminum in it until I read a recipe making sure the baking soda was aluminum free.
@@jenniejenkins7570 most likely mixes all of that. Squeeze fresh lemon, cut up fresh ginger, and add a tablespoon of ACV (or add to your liking) to sparkling water (Spring water works well too)
@@jenniejenkins7570 Hi, I use one large tumbler 🥃, I cut the lemon 🍋 and put the whole lemon in the glass, I use biona organic fresh pressed ginger add as much as your pallette likes, then 1 tablespoon of ACV or as much as your pallette likes. Enjoy
What really is the mother? I make it with organic apples and one tablespoon of raw sugar,blending with one liter of water per 5 apples..let it ferment for 3 or 4 weeks, stirring every 3 days...
Thank you! I started keto because of your videos more than a months ago, and lost 8 kg. I tried a lot of diets, and this is the only one which got me any results! Besides, I started to be conscious about what I eat and why, and I feeling super good and all the health improvement I have are just insane!
Fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing! Would you mind using this link to share your success story? www.drberg.com/add-client-success-story You can share whenever you're ready! We'd love to hear about your journey to reach your desired goal.
I skip my dinner. I do OMAD. That's why I take apple cider vinegar 30 mins before I break my 20-22 hour fast. And when I feel hungry, I drink ACV too. My hunger pangs just go away and I feel full after drinking. It stops me from snacking..
You and your work has changed my lifestyle dramatically. I am on the path to balance and healing. My liver is not swollen and in in pain anymore. I am losing weight; my pants will fall straight off. I have removed 6 medications (out of 12) without adverse reaction. I feel and look better. I get compliments. In a matter of months I will be down to 180 pounds. I will have a closet full of aloha shirts that are way too big, but that's OK. They are male moo moos anyway.
Awesome progress! Would you say your liver improvement is based mostly on the ACV cocktail or have you made other changes? I have a fatty liver and am starting to exercise more but want to try ACV w/lemon to see how that helps.
@@PioneerDNA ACV and lemon helps. There is something magical about it. But it is useless if you are eating processed non-organic food and not fasting and not taking vitamin supplements and herb natural remedies for your liver function. Your liver is an incredible machine. When damaged it can cause a whole range of health problems not the least of which are cancer and heart disease. Your bile cycle and cholesterol control are all imperative. All done through the liver. Fatty liver will kill you. It it the silent epidemic in the world. Look at people, how fat and unhealthy they are. Addicted to sugar and processed junk food. Addicted to alcohol and tobacco. Not for me thanks. Salads. Lots of fresh organic vegetables. Meats, eggs, fresh food. Fat does not make you fat. Sugar does. Number one rule: no sugar. Your body will heal. The liver can heal itself. It is an amazing fantastic machine!
I started fasting a week ago and I'm seeing the benefits already thanks to your concise explanation of what it does to your body. Thank you from Scotland.
Thanks DR Berg: I have been on this program for .6 year. Started at 186 lbs. now 150. My athletic weight was 136-145. I intend to get there and stay there. I am 71 yrs old. I have bad IR. I stopped alcohol, cigarettes, and cocaine 32 years ago. But I switched to sugar, stress, and coffee during my career years. Today I am fasting 60 hrs per week, three personalized pilates classes per week, and low carb keto/carnivore diet. Eating window is 4 hours each day that I am eating. Challenge has been living in Costa Rica where I find it hard to get organic beef, fish, pork. I do find pasture rairsed poltry at the farmers market along with many other healthy choices. I will tell you that I am not perfect and do still "struggle" with cakes, pastries, and sweet breads. but I will persist until this is managed. The anti-aging benefits of all this has been miraculous!!!!. No more arthritus, no more stiffness, I am flexible, strong. my brain is vivid and exciting. I have watched and re-watched your teachings and rely on them. BTW, I am retired and living alone with no distractions. I use all my time to live better and engage myself for the best that life has for me. thank you
That's amazing! Congratulations! I will share this with Dr. Berg! Is it okay with you if we post your success story on Dr. Berg's website? Please let us know as we would love to share your success with others! Dr. Berg's Support Team.
I have been diagnosed with fatty liver. I have not taken a drink in a decade. I had hepatitis C without knowing it and drank during that time. I have been cured of hep C since 2014. So, I am concerned to say he least. I am enjoying and following your advice that no doctor has ever told me. Thanks.
Agree...I've noticed when I take A.C.V right before bed, my blood sugar levels aren't as high, as when I don't drink it the night before. A.C.V is most definitely effective. A dash of cinnamon with A.C.V and a dash of lemon juice before bed also seems to lower my blood sugar in the morning. Wishing you all with T2D all the best 🙏
@@marietoniflotilde8372 Hello...not in capsules, I use Bragg's organic Apple cider vinegar. Besides what I originally wrote, I also take 1 tablespoon in 2-3oz. of water 15-20 before a meal. And I also take 1 teaspoon of the same ACV with 1/2 squeezed lemon/lime in 8-10 oz. of water, first thing in the morning. And at times I take breaks from ACV for a day, maybe two and resume. And I don't use more than a tablespoon at a time and never drink ACV without water. Hope this was somewhat helpful 🙏
I’m so glad and thankful for the information you have given us! I tried keto before and did ok with it for a year or so. They way you teach and explain things is absolutely amazing! My new favorite beverage, Acv, lemon juice, and a bit of sea salt is helping me tremendously. I have lost 11 lbs in three weeks and I have a level of energy I have not had before. The IF has also been great. I don’t feel like eating all the time, my brain fog is gone, along with my heart burn, and I believe it all helped with my BPH! God bless you and your family for having the heart to want to help and enlighten millions of us. Thanks
Thank you so much for all your knowledges as a health coach. You are one of the doctor that I have followed since March 2021. I was diagnosed as prediabetes and HBP, etc and now my recent lab work has shown positive impact overall. My A1C was 5.9 and now 5.3. My blood pressure was typically 140/98. And now 128/84🙏.
I have been taking for several years and benefits are just marvelous . However the mixture I use is: One cup Garlic juice, one cup Ginger juice, One cup lemon juice, one cup honey, one cup ACV, All mixed together and kept in fridge. Use daily early morning two table spoons mixed with some like warm water.
You have helped me so much. I am feeling great and weight loss is happening. I have to concentrate or nothing happens... your explanation tempers my will to achieve my results. You are helping so many people in such an important way. Cheers ..... a fan ! Tony , Sydney AUS
I do two tbl spoons acc, one lemon juice, one scoop multi collagen and dash of cinnamon twice daily. One smoothie with bone broth protein,one scoop tumeric and flax daily. Eat all recommended foods. In three weeks lost 14lbs and 4 1/2 inches in waist. still have soreness in knees but feel 100% better. 71 years old and can actually get our of bed. Before would take sometime to maneuver. Can’t wait for tomorrow thank you kind sir and God bless
Dr. Berg, do you even realize how much good you’re doing in this world? I wonder how many years of life all your listeners combined will get to enjoy with their families because you helped them prevent an unnecessary early death?
My sucess story is that i have PCOS.however after going keto & taking inositol which i learnt from your videos btw, i got pregnant @ age 35. THX YOU DR. BERG. U saved me $$$$ on fertitity treatment & now i have a sweet baby boy. THX A MILLION
My morning numbers used to be OUT of control, even when I would stop eating at 4pm the previous day. Checking my sugar at 3am showed it still low, but upon waking up in the morning, the good old Dawn Effect kicked in and raised my numbers. I remember Dr. Berg in a prior video mentioning ACV at night before bed to help with this. So this is what I do, and it has definitely helped my morning numbers. 2 tablespoons ACV, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, 1-2 cups lukewarm to hot water. I take the hot water right from the sink, not hot tea water. I drink this every night about 30-60 minutes before bed. For some reason, I find it more tolerable to drink this with hot water than with cold water.
@@nancyfryhover I am actually. It's unbelievable! I can tell the nightly ACV is working. My numbers only go up 10 or 15 points since my prior meal, and not 40 to 50 points like they used to. It was very frustrating to say the least. I think doing that and eating all my meals within an 8 hour time window are making a difference.
Ive found by accident of taking it before meals that it helped me not to eat as much. Then as time went on i was drinking it and not feeling like eating. It has helped gastric issues and i can tell it regulates my sugars because before if i skipped meal i would feel jittery or ill. I have found that this has caused me to go into omad w out even realizing it. So i only mainly eat dinner now. It also curves the want for sugar. Also i am loosing weight. I only been doing 2 teaspoons in 8oz of water before ever meal. I feel great
J Lynn, Do you have any other conditions or meds you take ? That 3x/day of the ACV might interfer with ? If so, please Don't share what they are... That's just a yes or no, since it's your private info. I've tried ACV w/water in the morning & afternoon. But I only use about 1t at a time & Not before bed bc I saw concerns that laying down could lead to esophagus "burn" from the acid, among other issues.
@@KBrown7 no meds. Only spine issues. Strange thing i found it to help w my acid reflux and heartburn. Maybe if you take at night do it a bit before bed would be better.😊 but i found before each meal is great. Im drinking as a meal for breakfast and lunch now.some days ill get hungry then ill eat something light. I wont deny myself if i feel it. But has curved so much.
@@MusicLover-ui9sm There are alot of videos on bonebroth & when you make if fresh from scratch its very important to add apple cider vinegar to pull out the nutrients from the bones & for me I drink it for gut health & I have pcos so adding acv helps with building up my stomach acid & weightloss & everything that he stated in the video
@@maygansaint Well I guess you never made bonebroth from scratch because they add acv to it but to each there own do what works for u because I like it & its working for me😊
hey Doc, i'm on the keto diet now for about a week and i'm feeling better, i think. the fullon 2 teaspoons of ACV in the glass of water is a bit much for me so i cut that in half 1+1 instead of 2+2. i think it's working. major thanks for all the good stuff on your channel. all the best Doc, be well and stay safe... ;) M
I’m so thankful for your teaching on our health issues. You don’t just say do this, or do that…you explain the “WHY?” these things are happening or “Why?” Certain things work. I’ve lost 20 pounds in 2-3 months. I’m using your electrolyte powder, and gallbladder support. I’m 61 have tons of energy, and my mind is firing on all cylinders👍🏼. In my 40’s I was hard core Atkins😢. I ended up with terrible GERD, the flap of my LES would t open and shut, so they ended up doing surgery..ugh! They didn’t know the right quest to ask or explain that I was too alkaline. Just told me to take antacid meds. Oh! How I wish I knew then what I know now!! Thank you again for your labor of love for all of us out here struggling with the Why’s and What to do. I’m now doing keto and intermittent fasting…I feel amazing!!!
I do IMF and I love ACV. I do not eat carbs or anything with sugar in. I feel so much better in myself, literally from my hair, skin, weight and stamina. I sleep better with long walks.
Thank you so much for all your help @Dr Berg I have lost 26 pounds and still on this journey. Keto was the way for me altho I hit my goal of 135 all because of you. Would like to loose at least 5 more pounds. I've started drinking ACV before bed day 1. Thank you so much again. I cannot wait to share with you my success of reaching 130. Your amazing & thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with the world. Hugs Ranee 🤗
ACV definitely works. I've lost a total amount of 30 pounds now and still going. The benefits for putting ACV in my smoothie and drinking it with water every night is thus. My stomach is getting flat I can't believe it. I work out constantly Jillian michaels all the way. During my period I usually balloon up altho during keto I didn't. Since being off keto and sneaking in carbs 🤦♀️drinking ACV keeps me from not bloating. It's funny it's like the healthy buckleys it taste awful but it works lol. 😁
I am 55 female from south africa ive been battling with my weight alk my adault life until i came accross the acv method and keto diet at first i only lost about 5kgs in a month but when i added intermittent fasting it went quicked i only eat once a day at lunch and have lost 11kgs now and down from a 5xl trouser to a 3xl i had covid in the meantime and have not weighed for 3 weeks it very difficult to do alone making 2 different meals for my husband son and keto for me but this is one lifestyle that work thank you somuch for all the videos blessings Tammy
Hello Tammy. Keep it up. If you have benefited from Dr. Berg's keto program, we'd love to share your story on his website. You can upload your story and pictures here: www.drberg.com/add-client-success-story -Dr. Berg's Support Team
I have tried Keto for about 4 weeks. I had to stop yesterday. Ran out of options. I thought I can eat eggs daily but turns out by week 4 I didn't want to look at the space where I store my eggs & in the same way I can't stand beef or pork. I will do IF with very low carbs with focus on OMAD. The inches around my waist reduced with in the 4 weeks so I am certain it works & I wasn't having too much gas anymore. Was doing Keto & IF.
I do lose a lot of weight after understanding how the insulin resistance occurs and how to deal with it. I still eating carbohydrates food, but now I intent to eat more vegetables and proteins, take apply cider vinegar, practice yoga daily, I never like my body so much. This is really the first time in my life I enjoy my body shape and eating behavior. Thanks.
After watching your video i started taking apple sider vinegar within few days i stopped taking antiacid tablets which i was taking from so many years i don't need it anymore thank you dr
I am so excited about my healthy lifestyle journey I have started and have been taking ACV before bed and in the morning with lemon water and coming across Dr Berg was the best thing that has ever happened to me in 2021 especially after having been critically ill from covid. I have been binging on his videos the past few days and I can't Stop, I feel great already and hopeful about the future 🥰🙌🏾 Thank you so much Dr Berg you are my treasure 🙏🏾🙌🏾🥰
@@carminelupertazzijr3512 I don't understand what you mean, if it's regarding the ACV I put tablespoon on cup of cold or warm water and 1 table spoon of lemon or how lemony I want the water to taste. Every morning and evening. I hope that answers your question.
I watch your videos regularly and follow your guidance, which are helping me alot in everyday decision making for healthy lifestyle, you are my everyday friend for a while now.
i was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes recently, and i have been using the apple cider after my meals and they keep my blood sugar low, help to digest the food and less tablets.
For my plantar fasciitis, I've been putting 2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar in tonic water with a quarter cup pomegranate juice and a bit of lemon juice. My heels are not burning as much! I'm actually drinking that right at this moment. The first time I did it, I added grated fresh ginger but the ginger bothered my stomach. Thank you, Dr. Berg! ☺ 👍
I have been taking ACV with lemon, water, a pinch of Celtic salt, and a sprinkle of cinnamon either every morning or before a meal. Cinnamon transforms it into a delicious drink! Can I add cinnamon to my bed time drink also?
Hello Doctor Berg 😊 I've been on the Keto diet for just about 11 days, and the first week went fine. Then everything almost stopped. I have discovered that electrolytes is not for me, because of my earlier kidney disease. Had a transplantation in January this year. And that other salt you've been talking about, I am allergic to so many things, I'm not sure how I will react to it. But I absolutely love your videos, and I'm always watching 😊 Hope I can come back some day and tell about my results.
@@jhenniceamorrow5936 I use to chase it with orange juice but, didnt want the added sugar. I was told that Aloe Vera is good for the Colon, and absorbs sugar from the body, the taste of the Aloe does not bother me.
Hey Dr berg. I've been following your videos for a few years now. I intermittent fast everyday and usually only eat between 5pm and 6pm. When I eat it is generally keto. I just turned 50 and I am in the shape I was in my 20s. Thanks so much keep posting 🤝👌👍
started your program last december 2022 and have lost about 30 lbs from 263 to 230 although i have stopped losing weight. I am swimming up to an hour a day.
Dr. Berg, It is working for me, everything is working, I’m actually doing it,😌🙂!!! I do not go one day without watching you, and learning from your teaching! 🥇🥇🥇🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🥇🥇🥇 Thank you for all you do Dr. you have changed my life!!!
I can't say that my health has benefited directly from any one thing I've learned from you (for sure), but I absolutely appreciate your videos, and I am working on things. Thanks for trying to help. Will try ACV before bed and see how that goes.
Your health depends on you and how you eat.. since I started eating so horribly bad, like in fast food rest. And etc. I have a number of symptoms that I can't even count and I have suffered from so many things in my body that I just don't know what to do, I just surrender to My Lord Jesus Christ! He is the Doctor of Doctors!! Blessed be his name!
perfect timing for me, this question was on my mind because I take a med that makes me intensely crave food at night, I was getting conflicting info online about this thanks Dr
Just a quick story... I saw your lemon video and decided to give it a shot. Well, I had been having issues peeing and the very next day after drinking the entire lemon the issue disappeared. I have been getting a lot of good stuff from your videos. Thank you! Gonna add acv starting tonight!
I am a registered dental hygienist so I amen to the straw and capsule recommendations although I’m guessing you’d want to be careful to drink enough waters with the capsules so you don’t end up burning up your lower esophogus in case the capsule kind of bursts before it hits the stomach…yes its a thing…it happened to be with digestive enzymes feels and tastes like dry throw up 🤣😂
@@mjwilson3535 NO DO NOT DO THIS! Apparently you should wait at least 30 minutes after drinking ACV to brush your teeth. Instead just gently rinse your mouth with some water ❤
Is there such a thing as taking too much ACV in a day? Also, i remember you quit endorsing Braggs ACV because it is slightly diluted. But what's the difference if we are to put it in water anyway? 🤔
I'm pretty sure you posted a video about ACV and pets. well I sprayed my flea infested cat with ACV and the fleas literally jumped off. my cat was so much happier. no more is he laying around scratching and being miscible. thank you Dr Berg
Dr. Berg as much as you are committed to spread hope to everyone, I got committed to follow your ongoing advices... As a result of a year and a half of gradually committing to Keto+IFasting, I have lost tons of weight I didn't dream of ever losing! And lost all my IBS conditions and many other more.. I am physically and mentally better because of you, so thanks from the bottom of my heart and god bless you.. Best wishes from Kuwait.
Hello and thanks for all the great videos! I have seen you say two very contradictory things about ACV dosages. In one you recommended 2 tsp in a 16 oz glass of water. In a couple of others, you suggested 2 TBS in a glass of water. So, which is it? What is a proper dose of ACV?
I think you should look which of the videos are newer and up to date because he knows much better now than what he knew several years ago. Go with 2 table spoon in a glass of water in this case.
Is this free advice and he's not selling something. What is this ? Someone that actually cares,a professional medical person that CARES unheard of. This is wonderful ,I have one question ,I always take meds and supplements before bed and early morning so can I take ACV along with those, Thanks so much
Hmmm. I always wake up energized since I am on Healthy Keto+IF. If what you say might be the reason, I'm not sure I want to take ACV before bed to get better bloodsugars. But I'll give it a three-week-try.
I do prefer how it was before I drank ACV before bed, I am slower in the morning now. I will however try a few more weeks, as it's not a night/day difference, but I do notice I was quicker in the morning before.
If is the best thing that has happened to me. I had to stop due to left eye blurry vision. When I stopped IF vision started to return. I am devastated. Hope that this video may address why the blurry vision. I want my IF life back!!!
update: ACV mixture (2 tbs ACV, 1 TBS of cherry juice, juice of 1l emon and 32 Oz of water). Drinking ACV mixture after meals before sleep. Drink it when necessary before meals. Intermittent Fasting: 20 hrs (no food)/4 hrs window (eat) format and eat once a day. Doing juicing mostly and daily sungazing and meditations. Using eggs for protein when eating green salad (high vibratory diet for meditation). Some walking. Lost 24 pounds in 6 weeks. averaging 1 to 2 pounds a day.
I take my ACV in the morning and at night after dinner. That’s about 450ml of water, 2 tsp of ACV and 2 tsp of pure calamansi extract and a dash of cinnamon. I like drinking it cold so i put in ice cubes and, honestly, i super love it! 💖🤸✨i could drink it all day if i can, it takes away my cravings for some reason
I returned to listen and understand ACV benefits. Over this past winter I found myself eating carb friendly labeled products, especially wheat. A big no-no for me. Just after a few days, eliminating wheat help me drop a couple pounds. Also, ACV and lemon water a couple times daily somewhat curbs my appetite. Thanks Dr. Berg.
My wife has had really bad acidic issues for a few years now where she even bleeds after eating anything spicy or upsetting to the stomach. Her specialist told her after tests were conducted that she had worn away the lining in her stomach! She was told that her stomach has a small fur type looking lining and hers has eroded away. None of the medicines prescribed had worked. I asked her to try Apple cider vinegar with lemon and honey. After just one week she’s showed a slight improvement with her health. Now she’s getting the glasses out to make the drink for both of us before I even think about it . Fingers crossed this is the way to go. Thanks Dr Berg
Just started taking ACV today. I'm tired all the time, nerve pain, seemingly constant stomach issues, joint pain, can't seem to get rid of the 15 lbs of fat around my mid section...even with fasting. I'll get back with y'all in a few weeks and let ya know how it went.
@@Moe27777 well, i only used it for a couple of weeks..before hurricane Ida interupted my life. I never picked it back up. In that 2 weeks i didnt notice any difference. Im just now getting back to a normal schedule. In all fairness i should try again.
Lately I've been mixing 1/2 a scoop of electrolyte powder (Dr. Berg's, of course) with 1 1/2 T. ACV and 12 oz. of cold water before bed. I use a straw to mix-and-sip as the electrolyte powder tends to settle. Usually dreading my nightly ACV water, this is incredibly delicious and a great way to actually enjoy the ACV.
Adding this now to my daily OMAD strategy. My morning cuppa has become lemon juice, ACV, a sliver of ginger root, a sploosh of molasses and a shake or two of cinnamon, in hot water. I also add ACV to my daytime lemon water kept in the fridge, so this is the missing piece of the puzzle. Cheers, Doc.
I am from Toronto, Canada. I have been following your posts for about a year now. I was 315 lbs. Since doing intermittent fasting and using apple cider vinegar I have lost 65 lbs. Thank you Dr Berg.

Thanks for info
I'm 71 and started IMF in March of this year. When I started I was pre-diabetic, my waist was 44", I weighed 244 pounds and could barely walk up a flight of stairs without being completely winded. Now I eat 2 KETO meals a day; one at 1:30pm and one at 5:30pm. I have my ACV drink when I get up before I have my coffee and I have another AVC drink at 8 or 9pm. As of today 7/31/2021 I've lost 40 pounds, 5" inches off my waist, my blood sugar is near normal, and I can walk up 5 flights of stairs without feeling winded. I owe it all to Dr Berg and Dr Jason Fung.
big grats! keep it up.

Theres a reason and plan behind every sorrow/pain, joy/excitement.
Nothing is without any reason.

Thanks, same 2 u my friend.🙏💜😘
I started taking ACV three days ago as you suggested. The most miraculous event occurred. I had a painful coccyx when sitting or laying down. On the 2nd day it went away. I’m so relieved. I put two tablespoons in water and drink it. I also dropped 3.3 lbs in such a short time.
Glad it helped you. Thank you for sharing your experience. Keep up the good work!
How many time you consume in day acv?
Hey Dr. Berg. A friend had introduced me to your videos and the intermittent fasting has helped me so much. I was 267 pounds and now I'm at 197 pounds. I'm still working on getting down but I feel good. I also had went to the doctor for a check up and usually my blood pressure is usually high, but not this time, it it was 122/88 and the doctor was also surprised with my weight as well. Thank you Dr. Berg.
I have had peripheral neuropathy for 12 years. I suffered Much discomfort in feet including burning and a weird uncomfortable feeling at night. Near end of February 2023 I started drinking 1 tbsp of ACV in 8 Oz water. The next night the very uncomfortable feeling in my feet disappeared. And I was able to stop taking my usual dose of 1200 mg of alpha lipoic acid caps at bedtime. 18 days later my feet are still doing great. No more nerve pain/burning in feet. So, my foot pain discomfort is now gone bc of ACV.
I'm very happy for you. I'm in the same condition. I will start taking it .thank you for the testimony
Dr Berg has changed my life.
Me too. I owe a great deal of gratitude to him.
Same here! He also changed my life!
that is amazing
@@gordonwilkinson5041 It is amazing with a name like that
Right, Facts!
Yes, Dr. Berg I am benefiting immensely from all your advice. January 31 of 2021 is when I decided to lose weight. I’ve used intermittent fasting as well as cut out fast food and sweets. My goal is to go back to wearing a size 4. I’m now at a size 6. I was a size 14 in the beginning of the year.
Nice, hit me up when you're a 2.
Size 8 to 10 is perfect 4 seems too low
My belly fat has decreased since taking apple cider vinegar..love all your videos Dr. BERG..I forward them to people who need them!!!
I find that taking ACV before bed also eliminates sugar cravings the next day.
I find it eliminates or reduces heartburn

Dear Dr Berg
My husband has been a diabetic for 16 years and he used to wake up in the middle of the night with low blood sugar and he would then have to eat something and also feeling very sick ever since weve been using apple cider vinegar (thanks to you) hes been sleeping well all night he could even lower the amount of his insulin injection thank you so much
Been a diabetic for about 8 years, I'm on a shot, metformin and glimiperide. I started fasting Thursday and Friday. Did it today for 16 hours. Just doing that I feel better. I stopped taking my insulin shot and today my sugar was around 160. I know I have a ton of work to do and watching your videos and reading comments have inspired me to pick back up the keto lifestyle.
That's awesome. Hope you're doing well.
How's everything going buddy?
You can do it.
Update, I'm actually doing really well. I go I'm about a month to get this a1c checked. Today I actually dabbled in some fruit and my buddy handled it just fine woot woot

One of his videos said to take the ACV before each meal.
I’m doing this program for one week , trying to get my hormones balanced. I’ve noticed a better feeling, one I cannot describe. Cutting out all the junk and reading labels. I’m hooked on his videos and want more knowledge bc the changes I’ve made made be feel so well.
Glad I found this site.
Thank you so much for your informative videos, Dr. Berg. I have lost 35 pounds since June of this year. Watching my carbs, taking refined white sugar out of my diet, no white refined flour either. It has made the world of difference. Thanks again, for bringing your knowledge and insight into healthier lifestyles to this medium at no cost. You are helping many people to improve their health.

Most of its water weight
I skip my dinner. I do OMAD. That's why I take apple cider vinegar 30 mins before I break my 20-22 hour fast. And when I feel hungry, I drink ACV too. My hunger pangs just go away and I feel full after drinking. It stops me from snacking..
What’s OMAD
@@melriini8280 One meal a day
I'll do it with my tea, 2 tsp in a 2 dl chamomila tea, 1-3 hours before sleeping! It works great for me.
congratulations
I also want to start drinking apple cider vinegar before bedtime. But I m confused. Should I add lemon to it. What ratio of vinegar to water you used?
You and your work has changed my lifestyle dramatically. I am on the path to balance and healing. My liver is not swollen and in in pain anymore. I am losing weight; my pants will fall straight off. I have removed 6 medications (out of 12) without adverse reaction. I feel and look better. I get compliments. In a matter of months I will be down to 180 pounds. I will have a closet full of aloha shirts that are way too big, but that's OK. They are male moo moos anyway.
Awesome progress! Would you say your liver improvement is based mostly on the ACV cocktail or have you made other changes? I have a fatty liver and am starting to exercise more but want to try ACV w/lemon to see how that helps.
@@PioneerDNA ACV and lemon helps. There is something magical about it. But it is useless if you are eating processed non-organic food and not fasting and not taking vitamin supplements and herb natural remedies for your liver function. Your liver is an incredible machine. When damaged it can cause a whole range of health problems not the least of which are cancer and heart disease. Your bile cycle and cholesterol control are all imperative. All done through the liver. Fatty liver will kill you. It it the silent epidemic in the world. Look at people, how fat and unhealthy they are. Addicted to sugar and processed junk food. Addicted to alcohol and tobacco. Not for me thanks. Salads. Lots of fresh organic vegetables. Meats, eggs, fresh food. Fat does not make you fat. Sugar does. Number one rule: no sugar. Your body will heal. The liver can heal itself. It is an amazing fantastic machine!
I loved reading this! Congrats!
I started fasting a week ago and I'm seeing the benefits already thanks to your concise explanation of what it does to your body. Thank you from Scotland.
That's great! You're most welcome.
Thanks DR Berg: I have been on this program for .6 year. Started at 186 lbs. now 150. My athletic weight was 136-145. I intend to get there and stay there. I am 71 yrs old. I have bad IR. I stopped alcohol, cigarettes, and cocaine 32 years ago. But I switched to sugar, stress, and coffee during my career years. Today I am fasting 60 hrs per week, three personalized pilates classes per week, and low carb keto/carnivore diet. Eating window is 4 hours each day that I am eating. Challenge has been living in Costa Rica where I find it hard to get organic beef, fish, pork. I do find pasture rairsed poltry at the farmers market along with many other healthy choices. I will tell you that I am not perfect and do still "struggle" with cakes, pastries, and sweet breads. but I will persist until this is managed. The anti-aging benefits of all this has been miraculous!!!!. No more arthritus, no more stiffness, I am flexible, strong. my brain is vivid and exciting. I have watched and re-watched your teachings and rely on them. BTW, I am retired and living alone with no distractions. I use all my time to live better and engage myself for the best that life has for me. thank you

I have been diagnosed with fatty liver. I have not taken a drink in a decade. I had hepatitis C without knowing it and drank during that time. I have been cured of hep C since 2014. So, I am concerned to say he least. I am enjoying and following your advice that no doctor has ever told me. Thanks.
started with ACV about a month ago, 1 TBSP a day, recently upped to 2 TBSP a day. I can tell it's working.
congratulations
what did you notice changed after taking 1/2 TBSP a day
How is it working?
How do u feel differently?
I bloat less after meals because of it
Works like a charm.
Tried it
Works for me. Tummy reduced like magic.
U drinking b4 night ik I’ll benefit too then cause I’m only cutting 300-400 cals off maintenance
Agree...I've noticed when I take A.C.V right before bed, my blood sugar levels aren't as high, as when I don't drink it the night before. A.C.V is most definitely effective. A dash of cinnamon with A.C.V and a dash of lemon juice before bed also seems to lower my blood sugar in the morning. Wishing you all with T2D all the best 🙏
Hi sir, did you used ACV capsule?
@@marietoniflotilde8372
Hello...not in capsules, I use Bragg's organic Apple cider vinegar. Besides what I originally wrote, I also take 1 tablespoon in 2-3oz. of water 15-20 before a meal. And I also take 1 teaspoon of the same ACV with 1/2 squeezed lemon/lime in 8-10 oz. of water, first thing in the morning. And at times I take breaks from ACV for a day, maybe two and resume. And I don't use more than a tablespoon at a time and never drink ACV without water. Hope this was somewhat helpful 🙏

I’m so glad and thankful for the information you have given us! I tried keto before and did ok with it for a year or so. They way you teach and explain things is absolutely amazing! My new favorite beverage, Acv, lemon juice, and a bit of sea salt is helping me tremendously. I have lost 11 lbs in three weeks and I have a level of energy I have not had before. The IF has also been great. I don’t feel like eating all the time, my brain fog is gone, along with my heart burn, and I believe it all helped with my BPH! God bless you and your family for having the heart to want to help and enlighten millions of us. Thanks

Dr. Berg, do you even realize how much good you’re doing in this world? I wonder how many years of life all your listeners combined will get to enjoy with their families because you helped them prevent an unnecessary early death?
My sucess story is that i have PCOS.however after going keto & taking inositol which i learnt from your videos btw, i got pregnant @ age 35. THX YOU DR. BERG. U saved me $$$$ on fertitity treatment & now i have a sweet baby boy. THX A MILLION
My morning numbers used to be OUT of control, even when I would stop eating at 4pm the previous day. Checking my sugar at 3am showed it still low, but upon waking up in the morning, the good old Dawn Effect kicked in and raised my numbers. I remember Dr. Berg in a prior video mentioning ACV at night before bed to help with this.
So this is what I do, and it has definitely helped my morning numbers.
2 tablespoons ACV, 1 teaspoon lemon juice, 1-2 cups lukewarm to hot water. I take the hot water right from the sink, not hot tea water. I drink this every night about 30-60 minutes before bed. For some reason, I find it more tolerable to drink this with hot water than with cold water.
Are you seeing a drop in your morning number?
@@nancyfryhover I am actually. It's unbelievable! I can tell the nightly ACV is working. My numbers only go up 10 or 15 points since my prior meal, and not 40 to 50 points like they used to. It was very frustrating to say the least. I think doing that and eating all my meals within an 8 hour time window are making a difference.
@@e815usa Are you eating fairly low carb also?

Ive found by accident of taking it before meals that it helped me not to eat as much. Then as time went on i was drinking it and not feeling like eating. It has helped gastric issues and i can tell it regulates my sugars because before if i skipped meal i would feel jittery or ill. I have found that this has caused me to go into omad w out even realizing it. So i only mainly eat dinner now. It also curves the want for sugar. Also i am loosing weight. I only been doing 2 teaspoons in 8oz of water before ever meal. I feel great

J Lynn, Do you have any other conditions or meds you take ? That 3x/day of the ACV might interfer with ? If so, please Don't share what they are... That's just a yes or no, since it's your private info. I've tried ACV w/water in the morning & afternoon. But I only use about 1t at a time & Not before bed bc I saw concerns that laying down could lead to esophagus "burn" from the acid, among other issues.
@@KBrown7 no meds. Only spine issues. Strange thing i found it to help w my acid reflux and heartburn.

I’ve lost 20 pounds in 2-3 months. I’m using your electrolyte powder, and gallbladder support. I’m 61 have tons of energy, and my mind is firing on all cylinders👍🏼. In my 40’s I was hard core Atkins😢. I ended up with terrible GERD, the flap of my LES would t open and shut, so they ended up doing surgery..ugh!

That's what Dr Grundy recommends instead of pop
How often do you dink acv while fasting?
But doesn't u feel more thirsty though?
I do IMF and I love ACV.
I do not eat carbs or anything with sugar in.

ACV definitely works. I've lost a total amount of 30 pounds now and still going. The benefits for putting ACV in my smoothie and drinking it with water every night is thus. My stomach is getting flat I can't believe it. I work out constantly Jillian michaels all the way. During my period I usually balloon up altho during keto I didn't. Since being off keto and sneaking in carbs 🤦♀️drinking ACV keeps me from not bloating. It's funny it's like the healthy buckleys it taste awful but it works lol. 😁

I will do IF with very low carbs with focus on OMAD. The inches around my waist reduced with in the 4 weeks so I am certain it works & I wasn't having too much gas anymore. Was doing Keto & IF.
I do lose a lot of weight after understanding how the insulin resistance occurs and how to deal with it. I still eating carbohydrates food, but now I intent to eat more vegetables and proteins, take apply cider vinegar, practice yoga daily, I never like my body so much.

i was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes recently, and i have been using the apple cider after my meals and they keep my blood sugar low, help to digest the food and less tablets.
For my plantar fasciitis, I've been putting 2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar in tonic water with a quarter cup pomegranate juice and a bit of lemon juice. My heels are not burning as much! I'm actually drinking that right at this moment. The first time I did it, I added grated fresh ginger but the ginger bothered my stomach. Thank you, Dr. Berg! ☺ 👍
I was able to fix my planter fasciitis with acupuncture
20 ounces water, one ounce ACV, and fresh lemon squeezed into it. Sometimes ginger, cayenne, and MCT oil too
I have been taking ACV with lemon, water, a pinch of Celtic salt, and a sprinkle of cinnamon either every morning or before a meal. Cinnamon transforms it into a delicious drink! Can I add cinnamon to my bed time drink also?
Hmmmmm… yummy thank you!!!!
that sounds like a great way to doctor this up; I'm a little reluctant to just drink the vinegar and water, but this makes it sound better!
Hello Doctor Berg 😊
I've been on the Keto diet for just about 11 days, and the first week went fine. Then everything almost stopped. I have discovered that electrolytes is not for me, because of my earlier kidney disease. Had a transplantation in January this year. And that other salt you've been talking about, I am allergic to so many things, I'm not sure how I will react to it.
But I absolutely love your videos, and I'm always watching 😊
Hope I can come back some day and tell about my results.

Dr. Berg, It is working for me, everything is working, I’m actually doing it,😌🙂!!! I do not go one day without watching you, and learning from your teaching! 🥇🥇🥇🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🥇🥇🥇
Thank you for all you do Dr. you have changed my life!!!
Wow- that's amazing.
@Helene Vion no not yet! But do plan when my goal is reached ! 🙋♀️🙏💜💜
My blood glucose was over 600 and I got it down to normal by taking Apple cider vinegar daily till it was down to 80-90. I am a firm believer in ACV.
I can't say that my health has benefited directly from any one thing I've learned from you (for sure), but I absolutely appreciate your videos, and I am working on things. Thanks for trying to help. Will try ACV before bed and see how that goes.
Your health depends on you and how you eat.. since I started eating so horribly bad, like in fast food rest. And etc. I have a number of symptoms that I can't even count and I have suffered from so many things in my body that I just don't know what to do, I just surrender to My Lord Jesus Christ! He is the Doctor of Doctors!! Blessed be his name!
Very nice explanation, and I already taking apple cider vinegar. Thank God & Dr. Berg
Very glad to be of help.
perfect timing for me, this question was on my mind because I take a med that makes me intensely crave food at night, I was getting conflicting info online about this thanks Dr
Just a quick story...
I saw your lemon video and decided to give it a shot. Well, I had been having issues peeing and the very next day after drinking the entire lemon the issue disappeared.
I have been getting a lot of good stuff from your videos. Thank you!
Gonna add acv starting tonight!
Great reminders!! just remember to drink em with a straw so that its contact with teeth is minimal...acids can deplete the enamel of the teeth
Or just take it in capsules 🙂
I am a registered dental hygienist so I amen to the straw and capsule recommendations although I’m guessing you’d want to be careful to drink enough waters with the capsules so you don’t end up burning up your lower esophogus in case the capsule kind of bursts before it hits the stomach…yes its a thing…it happened to be with digestive enzymes feels and tastes like dry throw up 🤣😂
Or brush your teeth right away after drinking the ACV?
@@mjwilson3535 NO DO NOT DO THIS! Apparently you should wait at least 30 minutes after drinking ACV to brush your teeth. Instead just gently rinse your mouth with some water ❤
I'm not a specialist though, just sharing what I learned after researching about ACV
I've lost a lot of weight with your help and have had the opportunity to help others
Is there such a thing as taking too much ACV in a day?
Also, i remember you quit endorsing Braggs ACV because it is slightly diluted. But what's the difference if we are to put it in water anyway? 🤔
What kind does he suggest then?
I take a big glass of ACV, organic lemon juice, and distilled water just before I eat. Especially when consuming protein.
I'm pretty sure you posted a video about ACV and pets. well I sprayed my flea infested cat with ACV and the fleas literally jumped off. my cat was so much happier. no more is he laying around scratching and being miscible. thank you Dr Berg
Did you use ACV straight or with some water added.?thanks.
@@judyharvey7499 I mixed it with water. IDK bout 50/50. also dont spray it on any open wounds. cat doesn't like it
@@PickledHam Thankyou
Miserable ??
It works with lices too and leaves your hair shiny .
This has greatly improved my quality of life. Your truly Heaven on earth. Thank you and everyone who helps you share this knowledge.
Dr. Berg as much as you are committed to spread hope to everyone, I got committed to follow your ongoing advices... As a result of a year and a half of gradually committing to Keto+IFasting, I have lost tons of weight I didn't dream of ever losing! And lost all my IBS conditions and many other more.. I am physically and mentally better because of you, so thanks from the bottom of my heart and god bless you.. Best wishes from Kuwait.
just started my ACV drink yesterday....really want to get rid of belly fat....
Hello and thanks for all the great videos! I have seen you say two very contradictory things about ACV dosages. In one you recommended 2 tsp in a 16 oz glass of water. In a couple of others, you suggested 2 TBS in a glass of water. So, which is it? What is a proper dose of ACV?
I think you should look which of the videos are newer and up to date because he knows much better now than what he knew several years ago. Go with 2 table spoon in a glass of water in this case.
Is this free advice and he's not selling something. What is this ? Someone that actually cares,a professional medical person that CARES unheard of. This is wonderful ,I have one question ,I always take meds and supplements before bed and early morning so can I take ACV along with those, Thanks so much
Hmmm.
I always wake up energized since I am on Healthy Keto+IF.
If what you say might be the reason, I'm not sure I want to take ACV before bed to get better bloodsugars.
But I'll give it a three-week-try.
How'd it go?
I do prefer how it was before I drank ACV before bed, I am slower in the morning now. I will however try a few more weeks, as it's not a night/day difference, but I do notice I was quicker in the morning before.
@@RPRsChannel how is it?
@@imanafdar It's not for me.
@@RPRsChannel so how many times you take acv a day? and what time you consume it?
Thanks for the sub-5 minute videos. Helpful to get quick focused info. Great compliment to the longer more detailed videos. Thanks.
I'm glad you liked this post.
I love the short and very informative messages and information segments that you post. You are so very helpful!
Happy to help!
If is the best thing that has happened to me. I had to stop due to left eye blurry vision. When I stopped IF vision started to return. I am devastated. Hope that this video may address why the blurry vision. I want my IF life back!!!
You always give helpful dietary advice and we sure do appreciate that. I will do the apple cider vinegar drink before bed and see what happens.
update: ACV mixture (2 tbs ACV, 1 TBS of cherry juice, juice of 1l emon and 32 Oz of water). Drinking ACV mixture after meals before sleep. Drink it when necessary before meals. Intermittent Fasting: 20 hrs (no food)/4 hrs window (eat) format and eat once a day. Doing juicing mostly and daily sungazing and meditations. Using eggs for protein when eating green salad (high vibratory diet for meditation). Some walking. Lost 24 pounds in 6 weeks. averaging 1 to 2 pounds a day.
I take my ACV in the morning and at night after dinner. That’s about 450ml of water, 2 tsp of ACV and 2 tsp of pure calamansi extract and a dash of cinnamon. I like drinking it cold so i put in ice cubes and, honestly, i super love it! 💖🤸✨i could drink it all day if i can, it takes away my cravings for some reason
I returned to listen and understand ACV benefits. Over this past winter I found myself eating carb friendly labeled products, especially wheat. A big no-no for me. Just after a few days, eliminating wheat help me drop a couple pounds. Also, ACV and lemon water a couple times daily somewhat curbs my appetite. Thanks Dr. Berg.
My wife has had really bad acidic issues for a few years now where she even bleeds after eating anything spicy or upsetting to the stomach. Her specialist told her after tests were conducted that she had worn away the lining in her stomach! She was told that her stomach has a small fur type looking lining and hers has eroded away. None of the medicines prescribed had worked. I asked her to try Apple cider vinegar with lemon and honey. After just one week she’s showed a slight improvement with her health. Now she’s getting the glasses out to make the drink for both of us before I even think about it . Fingers crossed this is the way to go. Thanks Dr Berg
Mastic gum helps rebuild stomach lining. Helped my daughter a lot!
@@daniellebundy2630 thank you I’ll look into it 😀
I literally go through one of this Braggs bottles every week or so. ACV has literally became my water 😋
ehh, drink with a straw or your teeth will rot.
@@Dr.WhetFarts always do :)
Omg! Me too! 😁👏🏼👍🏼
Thank you Doc…. Having ACV has made such a difference in my health & has cured my UTI…. Thanks again
Just started taking ACV today. I'm tired all the time, nerve pain, seemingly constant stomach issues, joint pain, can't seem to get rid of the 15 lbs of fat around my mid section...even with fasting.
I'll get back with y'all in a few weeks and let ya know how it went.
IT WILL BE OK WHEN WE GET IT STRAIGHT AND THOSE WHO HAVE LED US ASTRAY ARE HELD ACCOUNTABLE...
Get in a calorie deficit, that fat will go no matter what unless it's loose skin🤔
Good luck you won’t be sorry
How’s it going?
@@Moe27777 well, i only used it for a couple of weeks..before hurricane Ida interupted my life. I never picked it back up. In that 2 weeks i didnt notice any difference. Im just now getting back to a normal schedule. In all fairness i should try again.
Lately I've been mixing 1/2 a scoop of electrolyte powder (Dr. Berg's, of course) with 1 1/2 T. ACV and 12 oz. of cold water before bed.
I use a straw to mix-and-sip as the electrolyte powder tends to settle.
Usually dreading my nightly ACV water, this is incredibly delicious and a great way to actually enjoy the ACV.
Fascinating explains a lot! Have been on various levels of Keto since 2019 December!
Thank you for great information for my health, I have diabetes and is a pain not being able to eat certain food and the medication makes me drowsy 😴
Adding this now to my daily OMAD strategy. My morning cuppa has become lemon juice, ACV, a sliver of ginger root, a sploosh of molasses and a shake or two of cinnamon, in hot water. I also add ACV to my daytime lemon water kept in the fridge, so this is the missing piece of the puzzle. Cheers, Doc.
What exactly is a sploosh ?
Wouldn't stevia be better than molasses? Won't break fast, right?
Lemon juice is alkaline in the body, ACV is acidic- why are you combining them? 🤦🏽♀️
Clearly life changing in numerous ways.
