A vinegar drink before high-carb meals like pasta blunts the glucose spike that follows, reducing the cravings and hunger that come later. You can still eat the foods you love without triggering the blood-sugar roller coaster.
Let's say you're having a big bowl of pasta. That would be a big glucose spike. If you have a vinegar drink before the bowl of pasta, you would see a smaller glucose spike, yet you're still eating the same pasta. And especially what you want to avoid is once you kick off that glucose spike and the roller coaster, you're going to have a full day of cravings and more hunger. So you want to be able to eat what you love, the pasta and the chocolate that you love, without kicking off that really annoying and unfortunate vicious cycle of cravings. You have one cookie and then an hour later you're like, oh my God, I need ice cream now. That's the glucose roller coaster bringing you all these cravings for the rest of the day. Eat the pasta with levels 7 spikes, so less consequences.
