It has a unique and enveloping flavor that enhances the taste of the food that accompanies and enriches every dish. However, its qualities are not only these. In fact, we are dealing with a very popular condiment in our kitchens, whose texture we appreciate, but we do not know its potential from a nutritional and therapeutic point of view. In practice, this typical Italian product is a marvel! Let's find out why.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrom the vinegar “acetaia” to our tables\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSince 2001, Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena has acquired the Protected Designation of Origin. This is because it is a very special product, which is prepared with fermented and acetified grape must, which is then left to age for years ... This is certainly the true traditional balsamic vinegar.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis condiment offers a good dose of carbohydrates, a reduced protein intake and many mineral salts such as potassium, calcium, phosphorus and magnesium in valid quantities, and even minimal levels of manganese, iron, copper and zinc. Since the Middle Ages, it was thought that balsamic vinegar had numerous therapeutic properties. To be exact, it was believed that it could heal a bit of everything, both the most serious illnesses and minor ailments. The fact that only nobles and merchants could afford it made it even more valuable in the eyes of the people.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIt was believed to have astringent, disinfectant, antibacterial and antiviral properties; it was used to disinfect wounds and to treat epidermal infections and various problems affecting the skin appendages. To date, many of these potential benefits have been confirmed, but the truth is that balsamic vinegar has so many characteristics that we often cannot even imagine.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe benefits of regular consumption of balsamic vinegar\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA product made properly can give those who consume it a powerful antioxidant action. Its high levels of polyphenols and bioflavonoids (already present in grapes) help to fight free radicals, strengthen the immune system, promote longevity and general well-being of the organism. According to numerous researches, this condiment is even an excellent ally for weight control and digestion: it slows down and improves digestive processes, increases the sense of satiety, is low in calories and cholesterol-free.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSome scholars believe that balsamic vinegar can help regulate blood sugar levels and that its polyphenols can support enzymes in breaking down proteins into amino acids, thus optimizing numerous metabolic processes.
