SAFAKNA TURKEY- Vinegar is one of the indispensable conditions of the culinary culture of our country, as well as in many countries of the world. The purpose of using vinegar is to extend the time of use while retaining nutrients, just like when making pickles. It is also used to add flavor to dishes and salads. The use of vinegar, which has a deep history, dates back to the Assyrians and Sumerians about 10,000 years ago. It is known that vinegar was widely used by the founder of medicine Hippocrates to eliminate infections.
Vinegar, which can be obtained from many carbohydrate source foods, varies depending on the type of fruit produced, and is also produced by fermenting fruit varieties containing intense acid.
Vinegar, which is used as a flavoring in our meals and salads, has many positive health effects due to its antibacterial properties, antioxidant activity, blood pressure lowering, antidiabetic effect, and weight control effect.
May lower bad cholesterol: Regular consumption of vinegar is believed to lower LDL cholesterol and triglycerides. Through this function, vinegar can help protect cardiovascular health.
May regulate blood sugar levels: A small amount of vinegar consumed regularly can help regulate blood sugar and insulin levels. As a result of the study, it was noticed that vinegar regulates the level of glucose and insulin in the blood, suppressing it; It was concluded that it reduces the concentration of glucose after a meal.
May be helpful for high blood pressure: According to a study on lab rats, eating vinegar lowers blood pressure. The use of vinegar as a flavor enhancer in various flavored dishes may have an indirect effect on lowering blood pressure by helping people reduce their salt intake.
May provide weight control through appetite suppression: It is believed that the use of vinegar suppresses appetite. Studies show that the acetic acid in vinegar slows down gastric emptying and increases the metabolic rate. Providing appetite control, keeping food in the stomach for a longer time and increasing the metabolic rate contribute to weight control by reducing food intake. There are studies showing that consumption of vinegar causes a decrease in body fat ratio; Research investigating its association with obesity is lacking.
May be effective against tumors: Vinegar is a source of polyphenols synthesized against oxidative stress; It may reduce the risk of cancer due to its antioxidant effect. It supports the repair and regeneration of damage caused by carcinogens in cells. A study of lab rats showed that mice fed vinegar water had fewer tumor cells than mice fed no vinegar water.
May Protect Your Gut Health: As you know, vinegar is a leavened food. Beneficial compounds, such as antioxidants released during fermentation, contribute to vinegar being considered one of the gut-healthy foods. For this reason, vinegar helps support the immune system by strengthening the intestinal flora. Thus, it allows us to experience fewer health problems.
May be beneficial for skin health: Vinegar has antibacterial properties. Because of this feature, when vinegar is diluted with water, it can be effective against bacteria, prevent skin infections, and can also be helpful for dandruff and itchy scalp. However, if you have dry and sensitive skin, use vinegar sparingly. Your skin may be irritated by the use of vinegar.
