I questioned this as well….until I saw the composition of the Experimental “High Fat” Diet

Macronutrients

protein 20.0 % of total energy
carbohydrate 30.1 % of total energy
fat 49.9 % of total energy

Would you consider this diet to be the type of high fat diet shown to improve numerous markers of health?

I wouldn’t.

I would consider this diet pretty similar to the diet eaten in most western nations (perhaps with the carb/fat ratios reversed)

Why would you assume it’s the vinegar and not the high-fat diet that results in less body fat?

While it may be counter-intuitive, diets high in fat are far less likely to result in you becoming fat than diets high in carbohydrates.

I used to drink a bit of Raw Apple Cider Vinegar and water each day, but read somewhere that it can upset your potassium balance? This was a long time ago, sorry I don’t remember exactly what I read. Do you know if that is an okay thing to drink?

Fascinating Doug. I wasn’t aware of the connection. I’ve used vinegar as an appetite suppresant when I’ve dieted. Also as a digestive aid. Add one more function to the arsenal.

Thanks.
