Apple cider vinegar (ACV) has been widely used for various health and culinary purposes. It is produced through a two-step fermentation process involving yeast and bacteria, converting apple sugars into alcohol and then into acetic acid. Recent research has explored its potential benefits in weight management, lipid profile improvement, antimicrobial properties, and its microbiota composition.

Apple cider vinegar has demonstrated various health benefits, particularly in weight management and lipid profile improvement. Its microbiota composition varies between organic and conventional production methods, with organic ACV showing greater bacterial diversity. ACV also possesses notable antimicrobial properties, although its effectiveness can vary. Additionally, agricultural-grade ACV is highly effective in attracting and monitoring Drosophila suzukii populations. These findings support the multifaceted applications of ACV in health, agriculture, and food industries.
