Rev Up Your Metabolism with ACV

Whether you drink it straight up, or add it to a recipe, your body is craving the incredible ingredient:  APPLE CIDER VINEGAR.

Right about now, you're probably packing away your platform wedges and prioritizing your heaviest sweaters. It's a smart move—taking a moment to decide how you want to look in the coming months—and it's one that takes two steps. Because once your fashion plan is on-point, your healthy eating strategy needs to follow suit.

Simply put: If you're not already all about drinking apple cider vinegar (ACV), you should be. Made from fermented apples, the sweet-and-sour liquid will help your stomach produce hydrochloric acid. Why does that matter? Because once you're middle juices are flowing, you can easily digest your food and potentially eliminate acid reflux. ACV has also been shown to help level blood sugar levels and increase metabolic rates.

If you're seeking a perfect lunch salad instead of a snack, then you're in luck—ACV-based dressings instantly add tart complexity to a lackluster bowl of greens. I made a quick kale, pomegranate, Parmesan salad with slivered almonds and loved how the fruit's sweetness shined through.

Embrace the new chill in the air. Sweater season is the perfect time to get full of vinegar.
