Apple cider vinegar is a popular natural ingredient that may support better blood sugar control and overall health. It contains acetic acid, which may help slow carbohydrate digestion and reduce sudden blood sugar spikes after meals. Many people also use apple cider vinegar to support weight management, digestion, cholesterol levels, and heart health. For people with type 2 diabetes, apple cider vinegar can be included in moderation as part of a balanced lifestyle. It is usually consumed by mixing 1–2 tablespoons in water before meals or added to salads and soups. However, it should always be diluted because its acidic nature may damage teeth or irritate the digestive system if consumed directly.
