Vinegar Trial
In the vinegar trial, participants consumed the standard meal described
above with the addition of a dose of apple cider vinegar relative to
their body weight (.3g/kg). The vinegar dose was mixed with the orange
juice. Participants were instructed to consume the meal in under 10
minutes. After the meal, participants were restricted to sedentary
activities (sitting, reading, playing games). Blood glucose readings
were taken at baseline (pre-meal) and at 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes
after meal consumption using a commercial blood glucose meter and test
strips. All measurements were taken, in duplicate by the same
researcher.
