"In the first-in-human trial, amycretin appeared to have a safe and tolerable profile in line with the drug receptor classes. Side effects were mainly mild to moderate in severity and of gastrointestinal nature including nausea and vomiting."
Well, some have said that any weight loss resulting from use of daily apple cider vinegar is the result of the nausea from drinking vinegar. (Some British Medical Journal state this a few years ago, probably in support of modern pharma industry.) A more recent study in Lebanon indicates:
Drinking 1 Tablespoon of Apple Cider Vinegar Each Day Linked to Weight Loss in Younger Adults

The Romans used vinegar--probably wine vinegar--as an energy drink so there is probably something to it. (Someone said Di-acetic acid is a Ketone?)
No, it's an acid. The carbonyl group (carbon double-bonded to oxygen, CO) has a hydroxy group (oxygen single-bonded to hydrogen, OH) on one side, which makes it an acid. The combined group (COOH) is called a carboxyl group.
A ketone has the carbonyl group with aliphatic carbon groups (like methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl) on either side of it.
