Acetic acid might help liver cells burn fat better by turning on certain fat-burning genes, especially when used at a specific amount in lab studies.

Acetic acid helps liver cells burn fat and stop making too much fat, but only if a key switch in the cell called AMPKα is turned on. If that switch is blocked, acetic acid doesn’t work anymore.
