Apple cider vinegar contains prebiotics that feed good gut bacteria and help eliminate bad bacteria. This results in better digestion and absorption of essential nutrients. Its antiviral and antimicrobial properties strengthen your immunity making it more difficult for a harmful pathogen to take hold of your system. Another key component in apple cider vinegar is acetic acid — an element that helps your body use fat as a source of energy instead of excess weight. What’s more, people report the feeling of being fuller even with the consumption of around 250 calories less than they would normally eat.
