Nancy, your recipe looks great.

I've been thinking about your desire to get The Metformin Effect, Glenda; that is, how to increase your insulin sensitivity. Of course you are NOT diabetic so may not need the full Metformin Effect (the dosage varies depending on degree of insulin resistance, right?).

So if a full blown diabetic benefits from 2 T ACV per day, maybe 2 tsp (or less?) would be enough for you. Here's another experiment for you: try adding ACV vinaigrette twice a day (you could modify Nancy's recipe, I'm sure) and see how much you can tolerate. You might have to adjust the dose up and down a bit depending on your stomach and perhaps over time you can tolerate a bit more.

How will you know if your insulin sensitivity is increased?
