Abstract

Although previous studies show that vinegar improves insulin sensitivity in healthy or insulin-resistant subjects (1,2), information on the effect of vinegar in type 1 diabetes is absent. Given the beneficial effects of maintaining tight glycemic control on the development of complications, there is much interest in identifying diet patterns that could possibly reduce hyperglycemia. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of vinegar in type 1 diabetes. Ten men with type 1 diabetes (aged 32 ± 3 years, BMI 24 ± 1 kg/m2, diabetes duration 14 ± 3 years, A1C 6.7 ± 0.2%) treated with rapid-acting insulin preprandially and long-acting insulin once daily were studied after an overnight fast. The study was approved by …
