不论是罗马士兵还是现代运动员，他们都喜欢喝醋和水解渴，认为它们是令人神清气爽的饮料。世界各地的古代和现代文化都记录着'酸酒'的益处。

While there is plenty of historical and anecdotal testimony to the virtues of vinegar, what does medical research have to say on the subject of vinegar and health?

虽然很多历史和轶事都歌颂着醋的益处，但科学研究对于醋和健康这一话题又有何说法呢？

The most reliable evidence for the health benefits of vinegar come from a few humans studies involving apple cider vinegar. One study demonstrated that apple cider vinegar can improve after-meal blood glucose levels in insulin-resistant subjects. In 11 people who were "pre-diabetic," drinking 20 milliliters, a little more than one tablespoon, of apple cider vinegar lowered their blood sugar levels 30-60 minutes after eating more than a placebo did. That's good - but it was only demonstrated in 11 pre-diabetic people. When my brother and I were kids back in the '80s, we loved going to Long John Silver's.

涉及苹果醋的人类研究是说明醋的健康益处的最可靠证据。一项研究表明：对于抗胰岛素受试者而言，餐后喝苹果醋可改善血糖水平。11位糖尿病前期受试者餐后30至60分钟内喝了20毫升苹果醋（比一汤匙多点儿），而他们的血糖水平有所降低，降低的水平比服用安慰剂的效果更好。这一点很棒--但受试者只有11位糖尿病前期患者。20世纪80年代，我和哥哥还是个孩子，我们喜欢去Long John Sliver's餐店。
