Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Apple Cider Vinegar Urinary Citrate Increase | Determine the change in urinary citrate levels due to the addition of apple cider vinegar to the diet | 1 week | |
Secondary | Apple Cider Vinegar and urinary pH | Determine the effect of apple cider vinegar on urinary pH | 1 week | |
Secondary | Apple Cider Vinegar Against Other Beverages | Compare the effect of apple cider vinegar on urinary citrate with that of known citrate-rich beverages (lemonade, citrus based soda, coconut water) | 4 weeks | |
Secondary | Palatability Evaluation | Compare the palatability of apple cider vinegar and other known citrate-rich beverages (lemonade, citrus based soda, coconut water). Patients will keep daily log whwere they can free write any side effects (from palatability perspective and otherwise). At the end of the study a 2 question survery (Likert scale format) will be filled in which participants will answer the liklihood of their willingness to consume the beverage daily for the prevention of kidney stones. | 4 weeks |
