Diabetes is a disease that strikes more and more people every year, and the increase seems to only continue. This disease can lead to severe complications such as heart problems, kidney trouble, blindness, and amputation of limbs.
Watching what you eat is always important at an early age. Sadly, many parents do not teach their children the right eating habits and bad habits become hard to break. Protect your body with plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. You might also want to stay away from too much red meat and additives in your diet.
Learning When to Eat and When Not to Eat and Sticking To It. (Most of the time.) One night of popcorn at the movies is o.k. Try not to eat anything after 7 p.m. if you are on a 9-5 schedule.
Start and Maintain a Regular Exercise Program. Exercise helps get our blood circulating better and lets our cells get cleansed.
Since high-glycaemic foods raise insulin and blood glucose levels, stimulate fat storage, promote hyperactivity and help increase the risk of Type 2 diabetes, a change to a low-glycaemic diet can be extremely beneficial.
For example, if you avoid smoking (including second-hand smoke) and drinking, you do not have to worry about the effects of those habits on your health. If you remove sources of cholesterol from your diet you then have no cause to worry about how much to "cut back" on cholesterol intake.
Controlling blood sugar levels is another way for diabetics to help prevent blindness. One way to help control levels is by regularly testing. People, who test regularly, will learn what foods can cause their blood sugars to rise above normal amounts. Today, there are many different testing methods available, so it is easy for people to check their levels no matter where they are.
Breaking the cycle also requires that you get your body more sensitive to insulin. Recently, researchers have recently discovered that fat plays a pivotal role in insulin sensitivity. Yes you heard me right; scientists now believe that dietary fat is the key to stopping the syndrome X cycle.
Our bodies have over thousands of years adapted to foods being absorbed at a slow rate. Foods like vegetables, fruits seeds and nuts need to be broken down and the sugars are liberated at a slow rate that the body can handle. In contrast to this processed foods with refined carbohydrates release sugars easily and more quickly. This "floods" the blood stream with sugar. Sugary drinks are the worst for this. The body then pumps out insulin to lower the sugar levels.
Cinnamon is also a remedy that has received some publicity because it also aids in reversing diabetes. Though this remedy is still being researched, many of our customers have found that cinnamon adds a little sweetness to foods but also lowers their numbers. Try honey roasted almonds!
