ACV gummies for sleep... but my skin??
So I started taking Apple Cider Vinegar gummies like 3 weeks ago becuase I read they help with sleep. I've always been a terrible sleeper, waking up at 3am staring at the ceiling. Anyway, sleep is still kinda meh, but OMG my skin! I've had this patch of eczema on my arm for years and it's almost gone. Also my energy during the day is way better. Anyone else experience this? I'm not complaining but it's weird, right?
Med student here. ACV can affect blood sugar and digestion, which might indirectly help skin if your eczema was related to inflammation or gut issues. But gummies usually have added sugar or juice, so it could also be the placebo effect. What brand are you taking? Some have other ingredients like vitamin B12 or beetroot that could be responsible. Also, sleep and skin are linked—if your sleep quality improved even a little, that could show up on your skin. Just my 2 cents.
I've been using ACV gummies for about 6 months now. I started for weight loss (didn't do much there) but noticed my acid reflux got way better. And yeah, my skin looks brighter too. I think it's because ACV helps with digestion and detox. But I always buy the ones with no added sugar. You gotta read labels. What brand are you using, Greg? Also, have you changed anything else in your diet or routine?
That's so interesting! I take ACV gummies for anxiety (heard they help with stress) and I've noticed my nails are stronger. No idea if it's related but I'll take it. Greg, maybe you should try taking them earlier in the day if they're not helping sleep? I take mine in the morning. Also, have you tried meditation for sleep? It's helped me a ton. Just a thought!
