Abstract in brief

  • Vinegar, especially 10g taken during mealtime, can significantly reduce post-meal blood sugar levels (PPG) in healthy adults and those with type 2 diabetes, primarily by affecting carbohydrate digestion.
  • The antiglycemic effect is most effective when vinegar is consumed during the meal rather than before, and it does not work when taken with simple sugars like dextrose, indicating its action on complex carbohydrate digestion.
  • Sodium acetate, a salt form of vinegar's acetic acid, does not lower blood sugar, suggesting that the antiglycemic property is specific to vinegar itself and not just the acetate component.]

The holidays are here which means tons of eating! Remember to go for a walk after dinner to reduce sugar levels. Another great way to reduce glucose burden on the body is to consume a shot of vinegar before your meal! https://t.co/V3B5LNbPW6

食事中に酢を10グラム摂ることで 食後血糖値を20%改善した。 糖尿病の方に食生活を変えてくださいってハードルが高かったら、これから進めるのも悪くないかもしれないですね

2 teaspoons of vinegar can reduce the glucose spike in a meal by around 20% according to this study: Examination of the antiglycemic properties of vinegar in healthy adults (Ann Nutr Metab. 2010;56(1):74-9. doi: 10.1159/000272133.) https://t.co/jNJciinxQU
