Arizona State University?óÔé¼Ôäós Carol S. Johnston Ph.D. and a team of scientist accidentally stumbled across the weight loss power of vinegar while conducting a study to determine whether vinegar would help lower cholesterol levels-it did not- but they did discover that study participants lost on average half a pound a week, even without dieting. The participants were simply downing two tablespoons of vinegar before lunch and dinner. Johnston believes vinegar aids weight loss for two primary reasons. It blocks calories and carbohydrates, while controlling hunger.

| Well I didn't see anything about vinegar on that link, but I do believe that since vinegar is a diuretic the weight loss can be directly attributed to water loss which doesn't really count.

| I think dog excrement also works in similar fashion. Just two lumps before lunch and dinner, and I guarantee you will lose weight.

| lighten up. I was only accentuating the fact that there is nearly nothing worse in the world than vinegar.

The overall focus of the study had to do with the effect of vinegar on insulin sensitivity on type I and type II diabetics (and pre-diabetics)...in regards to the effects of vinegar and weight loss in healthy women, the reason that vinegar was found to be effective was simply because the women who consumed vinegar right before eating a meal with a high gi index (i.e. bread and juice) did not become as hungry as the women who did not consume vinegar before eating a high gi index meal. So the women who consumed the vinegar simply ended up eating fewer calories through the rest of the day than the women who did not include vinegar. The relevant portion of the study itself is below....highlights mine.....
"a separate trial, healthy adult women consumed fewer total calories on days that vinegar was ingested at the morning meal.[50] In this trial, which used a blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover design, fasting participants consumed a test drink (placebo or vinegar) followed by the test meal composed of a buttered bagel and orange juice (87 g carbohydrate). Blood samples were collected for 1 hour after the meal. At the end of testing, participants were allowed to follow their normal activities and eating patterns the remainder of the day, but they were instructed to record food and beverage consumption until bedtime. Vinegar ingestion, as compared with placebo, reduced the 60-minute glucose response to the test meal (?ó?åÔÇÖ54%, P < .05) and weakly affected later energy consumption (?ó?åÔÇÖ200 kilocalories, P = .111). Regression analyses indicated that 60-minute glucose responses to test meals explained 11% to 16% of the variance in later energy consumption (P < .05).[50] Thus, vinegar may affect satiety by reducing the meal-time glycemic load. Of 20 studies published between 1977 and 1999, 16 demonstrated that low-glycemic index foods promoted postmeal satiety and/or reduced subsequent hunger.[59]"
