Before your biggest meal of the day, down a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar diluted in water. The fruit's fermented juice may help curb your appetite, encourage regularity, and promote weight loss, according to a 2009 study published in Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry. Researchers found that obese people who consumed one to two tablespoons of the vinegar daily for 12 weeks saw a substantial drop in weight, abs fat, and waist circumference.
