Apple Cider Burn Complex

• It can help to improve digestion Unfiltered apple cider vinegar contains strands of protein, enzymes and healthy bacteria. These probiotic properties mean it can support a healthy gut. When we eat or drink anything containing probiotic bacteria, such as apple cider vinegar, the friendly bacteria it contains encourages more healthy bacteria in the gut. This supports a colony of beneficial gut bacteria (known as a microbiome). These beneficial bacteria help us digest and extract nutrients from the food we eat. If there is an imbalance in our microbiome and our levels of good bacteria are low, our bodies can’t get nutrients from food effectively, which can hinder weight loss and even promote weight gain – and apple cider vinegar can help with that. In simplistic terms, more probiotic bacteria = better digestion = weight loss. Apple cider vinegar might help boost digestion in older people, those with an autoimmune disease or those with anaemia. These individuals often experience lower levels of stomach acid. This can make digestion more sluggish. Apple cider vinegar is a highly acidic substance, so the theory is that taking some each day will help raise stomach acid levels and give digestion a boost.
• It can keep you fuller for longer Taking vinegar with a meal can help to keep you satisfied and less likely to reach for a snack not long after eating. Studies have shown that vinegar supplementation increases satiety after eating a high-carbohydrate meal. Apple cider vinegar also helps to slow stomach emptying, which is why you feel more satisfied for a longer period of time after eating. Feeling increased fullness after a meal reduces the likelihood of snacking and eating fewer calories overall, thereby promoting weight loss.

• It can act as a natural laxative Constipation can leave you feeling bloated and heavy while eliminating waste obviously leaves you feeling lighter. Adding apple cider vinegar to your daily (and particularly morning) routine can help get sluggish bowels moving and promote regularity, helping cleanse the digestive system ready for a new day. This is because apple cider vinegar is a pectin source, a type of soluble fibre found in apples. Pectin acts as a natural laxative and helps to stimulate bowel movements. It can help stabilize blood sugar. Eating foods high in sugar or refined carbohydrates can cause a sudden rise, or ‘spike’, in blood sugar soon after eating. This blood sugar spike causes your body to produce high insulin levels to allow the glucose to enter your body’s cells to be used as energy. If you’re experiencing frequent blood sugar spikes, it means your body is producing too much insulin, and your body can stop recognizing it. Over time, this is a risk factor for developing type 2 diabetes. The subsequent blood sugar drop after a spike leads to increased feelings of hunger, cravings and potentially overeating. This, in turn, leads to weight gain over time. It has been scientifically proven that vinegar, including apple cider vinegar, can help prevent a rapid rise in blood sugar, which can help keep your weight stable. This is due to the acetic acid that vinegar contains. Apple cider vinegar can also improve insulin sensitivity, making it easier for the body’s cells to recognize insulin, reducing blood sugar spikes and troughs and minimizing the risk of type 2 diabetes.
• It can suppress your appetite Researchers based at Imperial College London have found that acetate – a key component in acetic acid – has a central role in appetite regulation.
