Small daily quantities of apple cider vinegar for 12 weeks aid weight management in people who are overweight or obese, suggest the results of a small comparative clinical trial, published in the open access journal BMJ Nutrition, Prevention & Health.
The researchers state: “These results suggest that apple cider might have potential benefits in improving metabolic parameters related to obesity and metabolic disorders in obese individuals. The results might contribute to evidence-based recommendations for the use of [apple cider vinegar] as a dietary intervention in the management of obesity.”
“The study could stimulate further research in the field, prompting scientists to explore the underlying mechanisms and conduct similar studies in other populations.”
