The article states that vinegar contains chromium. Chromium lowers blood sugar levels and is used in carbohydrate metabolism. This could be why vinegar is useful in dieting - but with the risks of high acidity (stomach/esophageal irritation), acidification of pH level, and yeast load, it seems like taking a chromium supplement is a better alternative.
