Vinegar...What is it? Carb?

[jcgomez]

What is vinegar? Is it a carb? It does not have a nutrition label and want to use it (white, red, or apple) on romaine lettuce with olive oil as a salad dressing.

Vineager has a few grams of carbs.  I think vineager is made from this process:

1.  Grape juice ferments into wine (sugar is turned into ethanol)
2.  Wine turns into vinegar (Ethanol breaks down into acetic acid)

Where does all the energy go though?  Is it an exothermic reaction or is the energy contained in the acetic acid?

normal vinegar has 0,27 gr of carbs each 100 gr.
balsamic vinegar has 19gr of carbs each 100 gr.

balsamic vinegar has 19gr of carbs each 100 gr.

Is that supposed to be 0.27?

He's probably European, they flip flop their commas and decimals.

Is the consensus then that normal white vinegar is essentially carb free and we can eat it during the ULC part of a CBL day or during the ULC part of CNS?

Basically, yeah.

Also are there any benefits to it for detoxing the liver?

It's great for a whole lot of things, particularly gut health. Google it as there is heaps of information available for it.

I take a Tblsp twice daily after meals I  have found this particularly useful when going ULC!

Plain vinegar or Apple cider vinegar?
