Vinegar Effective Fat Fighter
New Evidence That Vinegar May
Be An Effective Natural Fat-fighter
Researchers in Japan are reporting new evidence that the
ordinary
vinegar, a staple in oil-and-vinegar salad dressings,
pickles, and other foods, may live up to its age-old reputation
in folk medicine
as a health promoter. They are reporting new
evidence that vinegar can help prevent accumulation of body fat
and weight gain.
Vinegar has
also been used as a folk medicine since ancient times.
People have used it for a range of ills. Modern scientific research
now suggests
that ACETIC ACID, the main component of vinegar, may
help control blood pressure, blood sugar levels, and fat accumulation.
Their new
study showed that laboratory mice fed a high-fat diet and
given Acetic Acid developed significantly less body fat (up to 10 percent
less) than other mice.
Most significantly, the new research adds evidence to the belief that
Acetic Acid fights fat by turning on genes
for fatty acid oxidation enzymes.
The genes produce specific proteins involved in breaking down fats, thus
suppressing body fat accumulation
in the body.
