Fasting blood collected
at weeks 0 and 12
was analyzed for insulin
and glycated hemoglobin.
Average change in fasting glucose
was reduced
in the vinegar group
versus control group (0.91 ± 0.27 versus 0.26 ± 0.17 mmol/l) (p = 0.05). Average change in 2-h postprandial glucose, insulin and glycated hemoglobin
did not vary between groups.
Fasting breath hydrogen at week 12
was elevated 19%
in the vinegar group versus control
group suggesting
an increase in colonic fermentation
in the vinegar group.
