I used to use it for other health benefits and never noticed any effects on my DP to be honest.

I haven't heard of it being used specifically for dawn phenomenon, though it is meant to help with overall insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism.

I use it for digestive issues mostly and can't point to anything specific it's done for my BG levels.

I didn't read any further than the fact that only 11 people took part in the study tbh. Too few a number to draw any real conclusions from.

I've never thought to try it at bedtime, so will give that a try, thanks

As I say. I used it before for other health benefits and never seen any effect on my blood glucose levels.

Hi,
I use apple cider vinegar of an evening sometimes for other reasons-if I am craving late evening snacks or something sweet, I have 2 teaspoons of it. I actually quite like it - the sharp acidic taste seems to satisfy an odd taste sensation I desire (I do like weird things)! I think it might help my fasting levels a bit but ultimately it's about what I've eaten the day before and alcohol seems to effect them much more than vinegar does.

Every study has to start somewhere and thus is a typical size for a first study. You don't get to do big studies unless you succeed in little ones first. And it's better evidence than just anecdotal evidence.

I have no opinion re the vinegar by the way.

I also like weird things ACV can be bad for your teeth( acid), if you drink it trough a straw it will help.
