[QUOTE="tubamanandy, post: 1916135, member: 139211"] These seem to be the main points (apparently all tested/proven):- When taken before a high-carb meal, vinegar slows the rate of stomach emptying and prevents large blood sugar spikes (1). It also improves insulin sensitivity, which helps your body move more glucose out of the bloodstream and into your cells, thus lowering blood sugar levels (2). Interestingly, only a small amount of apple cider vinegar is needed to have these effects. Four teaspoons (20 ml) of apple cider vinegar before meals have been shown to significantly reduce blood sugar levels after eating (2, 3, 4). It should be mixed with a few ounces of water and consumed right before a high-carb meal (2, 5). Apple cider vinegar does not significantly lower blood sugar when taken before a low-carb or high-fiber meal (6). Vinegar has been shown to have numerous benefits for blood sugar and insulin levels: Improves insulin sensitivity during a high-carb meal by 19–34% and significantly lowers blood sugar and insulin responses (6). Reduces blood sugar by 34% after eating 50 grams of white bread (7). 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar before bedtime can reduce fasting blood sugar in the morning by 4% (8). Numerous other studies in humans show that vinegar can improve insulin function and lower blood sugar levels after meals (9, 10). [/QUOTE]
