It's post-Thanksgiving andyou may befeeling weighed down by second, third, fourth helpings, and a hefty array of appetizers and cocktails.If there were one thing that could help us lightly detox, we would all get our hands on it. However, there are many things that can help including, exercise, rest, vitamins, and this drink, in particular, apple cider vinegar.
This simple ingredient is full of powerful health benefits and has a strong taste. Personally, my favorite brand is Bragg's because of its long history as a "health food" that detoxifies and boosts metabolism, and the founders were health advocates long before such a thing was trendy.
Paul Bragg was an alternative health food advocate and fitness enthusiast.who wrote on subjects such as detoxification, dieting, fasting, longevity,andphysical culture. Back when he started his apple cider vinegar company people thought he was a quack but it turns out that for hundreds of years apple cider vinegar has been used as a "cleansing" ingredient in foods. and Bragg's current CEO Linda Boardman, explains that the company is now enjoying aresurgence in popularity, as the entire country seeks out health boosters that they can trust to add to their food that will help keep our bodies in peak form right now.
Bragg has a collection of vinaigrettes you can buy from theBRAGG website, however, many of them include honey so if you're a vegan who doesn't eat honey, I recommend making your own dressing using the apple cider vinegar.
I try to add ACV to almost everything I eat, even if it's a small drop.I like to use it as an olive oil replacement with I sauteed fresh vegetables and make delicious stir-fry for dinner. Not only does it have a tangy flavoring and adds a kick to my meals, but ACV also has many health benefits. The most common use of apple cider vinegar is for weight loss.According toHealthline,studies have shown that vinegar can make us feel fuller faster and eat fewer calories which may result in weight loss. The study of 175 people with obesity showed that "daily apple cider vinegar consumption led to reduced belly fat", here are the exact numbers:
The bottom line is that ACV can trick your body into thinking you are full, so you avoid overeating and gaining weight. Add a few tablespoons to your salad dressings, cocktails, pasta sauces, smoothies, baking goods, or simply to your pan when you sautee vegetables or make a breakfast sandwich usingJUST eggs. We included three vegan recipes from plant-based chefs that are easy to make and taste even more delicious with ACV.
