In this randomized trial (Khezri et al, 2018) individuals who were overweight were randomized to one of two groups: 39 completed the full protocol.
The experimental group received 30ml/d of ACV and a restricted diet while the control group received a restricted diet only. After 12 weeks there was a significant decrease in appetite (as assessed using a standardized assessment) in the ACV group as compared to the control group.
IMPORTANT FINDING: Given that both groups were placed on a calorie restricted diet this finding suggests that the use of ACV is helpful for individuals who, when dieting or restricting caloric intact, are looking for a way to curb their appetite and feel less hungry.
