I think ACV is a scam. Yes, it has benefits but those benefits are very small, Only blood sugar issues have any science to back them but the science is weak.
ACV and MCT oil have both been grossly overhyped and marketed to people who want a quick fix.
If ACV has true benefit, Big Pharma would isolate the beneficial parts and copy them and sell them.
One benefit of ACV is discipline. If a person is disciplined enough to consume bitter ACV, they often are taking other steps to improve their health. That is the part that the studies did not account for.
Placebo effect is greatly increased by disciplined action.
