The trial was completed by a total of 28 overweight but otherwise healthy adults, who were split into two groups: one group taking two tablespoons of red wine vinegar twice daily, and the other group taking a daily pill with a very small amount of vinegar in it.

Group too small, overweight is a weird group to use because it doesn’t really apply to people. And there wasn’t a control

Overweight people aren't people?

Sure but my point was that an underlying health condition can impact a study and mean the results don’t apply to the general population

It could be as simple as vinegar is an appetite suppressant so their mood boosted as their diet was better
