[QUOTE="AloeSvea, post: 2545087, member: 150927"] Hi [USER=90622]@mrs gimli[/USER], I'm on metformin, and ACV is a regular part of my diet. I just wish I had found my 'sweet spot' method with eating it (as a salad and coleslaw dressing with no-sugar added aioli - yum!) when I first read about the wonders of ACV in my 20s - it would've saved me a whole lot of gallstone issues down the line! Apparently vinegars are so good for our digestion/health and act as a tonic as they replicate the conditions in our gut that eating animal and bird organs did for us when we ate that more regularly (all the power to you if you still do now! That of course is probably ideal...) Like fermented food. So I don't eat ACV regularly for my blood glucose levels (I have experimented though - once upon a time they made a small difference in post meal BG readings, which is what the research also says), I eat it as it is good nutritionally. (And keeps my gallstone and gallbladder in line!) Remember food isn't just about our blood glucose readings, but ultimately about nourishing us! We just have to watch the insulin and glucose raising s*** as well, sadly. ACV is a win-win on that one. [/QUOTE]
