“…Multiple functional properties of the vinegar are well established, including antioxidant, anti-hyperglycaemia, anti-hypertension, anti-microbial, anti-thrombotic and even anti-cancer properties [13]. Moreover, in the last decades, vinegar has captured some interest for its beneficial effects on controlling body weight and visceral fat accumulation [11,14,15]. Mechanistically, acetate has been found to block fatty acid synthesis and reduce lipid content in liver and adipose tissue, improving obesity [16,17].…”

Obesity is a worldwide epidemic characterized by excessive fat accumulation, associated with multiple comorbidities and complications. Emerging evidence points to gut microbiome as a driving force in the pathogenesis of obesity. Vinegar intake, a traditional remedy source of exogenous acetate, has been shown to improve glycemic control and to have anti-obesity effects. New functional foods may be developed by supplementing traditional food with probiotics. B. coagulans is a suitable choice because of its resistance to high temperatures. To analyze the possible synergic effect of Vinegar and B. coagulans against the metabolic alterations induced by a high fat diet (HFD), we fed twelve-week-old C57BL/6 mice with HFD for 5 weeks after 2 weeks of acclimation on a normal diet. Then, food intake, body weight, blood biochemical parameters, histology and liver inflammatory markers were analyzed. Although vinegar drink, either alone or supplemented with B. coagulans, reduced food intake, attenuated body weight gain and enhanced glucose tolerance, only the supplemented drink improved the lipid serum profile and prevented hepatic HFD-induced overexpression of CD36, IL-1β, IL-6, LXR and SREBP, thus reducing lipid deposition in the liver. The beneficial properties of the B. coagulans-supplemented vinegar appear to be mediated by a reduction in insulin and leptin circulating levels.

“…Vinegar is the product of acetic acid and is reported to have anti-glycemic effects in either animal or human studies (Johnston and Gaas, 2006). The mechanisms of vinegar are based on improved insulin sensitivity and delayed gastric emptying accompanied with improved glycemic control and reduced body weight (Halima et al, 2017;Khezri et al, 2018;Siddiqui et al, 2018;Shishehbor et al, 2017;Chen et al, 2016;Petsiou et al, 2014).…”

“…Vinegar was first reported to have anti-glycemic effects since 1988 in animal and human studies (Ebihara and Nakajima, 1988). Vinegar may be associated with improved insulin sensitivity and delayed gastric emptying that accompanied improved glycemic control and reduced body weight (Johnston and Gaas, 2006;Halima et al, 2017;Khezri et al, 2018).…”

This open-label non-controlled study is to evaluate the effects of black vinegar intake for 8 weeks on the anthropometric measures, cardiometabolic profiles, and insulin sensitivity among impaired fasting glucose adults. 32 subjects (14 males and 18 females) were recruited with the mean age of 56.3 (from 25 to 65). Black vinegar 50 ml was diluted to 500 ml with drinking water and was given to all subjects for 8 weeks. At baseline and 8-week, all study subjects received 75 g of oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) after 10 h of fasting. Venous blood was collected at 0, 30, 60, 90 and 120 min. Plasma glucose and insulin levels were measured using the glucose oxidase method and radioimmunoassay method. Anthropometric variables, blood pressure and blood lipid profiles were measured using standard methods. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to compare the difference between baseline and after eight weeks. After eight weeks, the body weight and BMI decreased from 68.2 ± 14.4 kg to 67.6 ± 14.2 kg and 26.3 ± 4.5 kg/m2 to 26.0 ± 4.4 kg/m2, respectively, with statistical significance (p < 0.05). Triglyceride level decreased from 152.5 ± 134.7 to 140.6 ± 93.8 mg/dl but without statistical significance. The blood glucose levels at 120 min of OGTT decreased from 178.8 ± 57.0 to 173.7 ± 57.5 mg/dl and the insulin levels at 120 min of OGTT increased from 117.5 ± 74.2 to 126.4 ± 95.9 IU/L but not statistically significant (p > 0.05). There is a slight decrease of body weight and BMI, but no significantly change in blood pressure, lipid profiles, and insulin sensitivity after eight weeks of black vinegar intake among impaired fasting glucose adults. However, further large-scale and longer studies are needed to explore the effects of black vinegar on cardiometabolic profiles and insulin sensitivity. Keywords: Black vinegar, anthropometric measures, lipid profiles, insulin sensitivity, impaired fasting glucose.

Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) or venereal diseases are transmitted through various methods of sexual intercourse (oral, vaginal, and anal). The predisposition to this type of diseases and infections depends on the immunity system of the body, so the lower the immunity system's strength, the greater the risk of Sexually transmitted infections (STIs). The most important pathogenic causes of STIs include bacteria, viruses, and parasites. Phytochemical investigations have shown that medicinal plants are a rich source of antioxidant compounds, biologically active compounds, phenols, etc. They can have an inhibitory effect on germs and infectious viruses and are very important for a variety of parasitic diseases, microbial infections, and STIs. Some of the most important medicinal plants that produce inhibitory effects on the growth and proliferation of pathogenic agents of the STIs were reported in the present article. Based on the results obtained from the review of numerous articles indexed in the databases the Institute for Scientific Information, Scopus, PubMed, Google Scholar, etc., a number of plants have been reported to be used in the treatment and prevention of genital tract diseases and STIs, and to produce antiviral and antimicrobial effects, including have examined the therapeutic and clinical effects of medicinal plants, and the use of their active ingredients to produce herbal drugs has been addressed. The results of phytochemical investigations have shown that the most important compounds of these plants include quercetin,
