🍎Apple cider vinegar (ACV) is fermented apple juice that contains acetic acid, which is thought to suppress glucose spikes.
🥗Drinking ACV before a high-carb meal may dampen the glycemic response, resulting in a lower and more gradual rise in blood glucose.
🍞Incorporating ACV into a salad dressing or consuming ACV gummies had no significant impact or even worsened the glycemic response.
📊The effects of ACV on blood glucose response vary depending on the meal and individual factors such as insulin sensitivity.
❌ACV is not a reliable strategy for controlling glucose levels. Other dietary and lifestyle tweaks, such as exercise and pairing carbs with protein, may be more effective.
