A viral study claiming a daily shot of apple cider vinegar can help people lose weight was, it appears, as far-fetched as it sounded.
This week, the study was retracted by a major medical publishing group after “multiple analytic errors” were identified, and more than a year after it was originally published, along with a press release.
