What if one simple drink before bed could help flatten your stomach, balance blood sugar, improve digestion, and unlock deeper sleep? In this episode, I walk you through the science-backed benefits of taking apple cider vinegar (ACV) at night — hour by hour.

You'll learn exactly how ACV affects your gut, hormones, metabolism, and sleep quality while you rest — and why it’s far more than just a TikTok trend.
