I would like to draw attention to the fact that doctors in most parts of world too readily prescribe injected insulin when patients are diagnosed as having type 2 diabetes.Synthetic insulin is a dangerous drug with lots of undesirable, and sometimes fatal, side effects.Some doctors don't even bother to perform a test to see if the patient's system has completely stopped producing natural insulin before prescribing the manufactured kind. Consequently, millions of people all over the world are unnecessarily injecting themselves with insulin on a daily basis when they could be taking care of their condition by natural means.
There is strong evidence to suggest that a strict diet, exercise and the taking
of a few readily available food supplements is a much safer route to controlling blood sugar levels than injected insulin.Many people diagnosed as having type 2 diabetes are lacking in essential minerals and vitamins which gave rise to their condition. Of these two, minerals are the most important as vitamins are largely ineffective without them. A diet high in fiber is also beneficial.The minerals critical to the diabetic's health are as follows: chromium, potassium, manganese, magnesium, sulphur and zinc. Vitamins B2 and B6 are also vitally important.It is not an easy task trying to get these from food as the nutrient value of food can vary greately dependent upon where it came from, how fresh it is, how it is stored, and how it is cooked.
The evidence suggests that a diet high in protein and fiber, and low in carbohydrates and without added sugars, is the best one for controlling type 2 diabetes by natural means, The natural sugar in fruits is known as fructose.The latter is not broken down by insulin, so fruits in general, and apples in particular, can be utilised by the diabetic to ensure there is sufficient sugar circulating in the body.
It is best for the diabetic to eat foods such as vegetables in the raw condition as cooking can destroy lots of beneficial nutrients. The foods likely to provide the whole range of nutrients are as follows: algae, asparagus,celery, cabbage
cucumber, watercress, lettuce, oats,grains and sprouted grains,beef liver, fruits in general and especially apples, beans, egg yolks, hazelnuts, onions, olives, soyabean, wholegrain bread and rye crispbreads.Foods to be avoided are: beats, bananas, cocoa, chestnuts,chocolate,jam, fruit syrup, jelly, ice cream, mayonnaise, honey and white rice.
Soft drinks laden with sugar should be avoided by the diabetic. If you find yourself in a position where only these are available, then go for the diet version,example diet coke instead of the regular kind, Drinking lots of tap or bottled water between meals can also help.
Choromium picolinate and brewer's yeast tablets should be taken 3 times daily with meals in order to regulate the amount of glucose circulating in the body. Because of the variables with food as mentioned above, serious consideration should be given to the taking of a daily multivitamin and mineral tablet so there are no deficiencies in this regard. These are readily available from health food shops, and can be purchased by credit card on the Internet for delivery via. the mail. |
