Dear Reader,
If you have diabetes, chances are your mainstream doc has put you on a blood sugar drug (or two, or three…).
And I’m willing to bet these drugs make you feel terrible. That’s because they drain your energy and are chock-full of side effects.
Instead of loading up on these drugs that can not only endanger your health AND make you feel lousy, isn’t it time to opt for a safer and easier solution?
Well, there’s a small but POWERFUL veggie that can help you get your sugars balanced minus all the headache.
For years natural doctors like me have been SCREAMING that you can stop diabetes before it even starts (and even cure it if it’s taken hold).
Now even stubborn medical doctors are starting to believe what we’ve been saying all these years:
There are foods that increase diabetes (like sugar and vegetable oils) and foods that can STOP it.
A 2017 study published in PLOS One investigated the effects of okra on rats with diabetes. A substance called myricetin is found in okra and some other foods, including red wine and tea.
Scientists gave rats myricetin and found that it increased the absorption of sugar into rat’s muscles (which LOWERED overall blood sugar).
Another study from 2011 found that an okra solution actually blocks the absorption of sugar in the intestines.
If you like okra, this is more reason to add it more regularly into your diet.
But there is so much more you can do to prevent or manage diabetes.
Dr. Scott’s Balanced Blood Sugar Approach:
- Eat well: This means avoiding processed foods, eating good proteins, and as many veggies as you can. Staying away from sugar, grains, and starchy vegetables also helps. If you are going to eat sugar, then do it near a meal (this slows down the absorption of sugar).
- Exercise: Don’t feel that you have to run a marathon to be in shape, but walking, golfing, or a game of tennis can all help your body deal with sugar more effectively.
- Inflammation: Buy some cheap health insurance by taking supplements that keep your inflammation low: I like fish oil, curcumin, and Boswellia.
- Berberine: This herbal extract is great for the brain and helps to control blood sugar.
- Chromium: This mineral is also well-known to help control blood sugar.
