While vinegar has many culinary and household uses, drinking it as a “magic cure” for many illnesses or chronic illnesses may not be beneficial.

A few studies have been conducted, but none are conclusive of the health benefits. One study showed promise in weight loss. Another showed improvement in insulin action with diabetes. Another had improved blood sugar control, insulin levels, and high triglyceride levels in Type 2 diabetics. Other studies are not as positive. Consuming large amounts of vinegar can interact with medications, cause tooth decay, and gastrointestinal issues.
