Alternative cure for diabetes

If you have just been diagnosed with the disease, it will be fairly easy to control at this point. It will require strict dieting and a regiment to be followed. Every morning, on an empty stomach, drink a small glass of fresh bitter gourd juice.


Simmer a teaspoon of cinnamon powder in a litre of boiling water till the quantity of water is halved and strain. Drinking this every day will help bring your blood sugar count under control. A pod of garlic eaten once a day is also beneficial.


 

Avoid large meals, opting for at least five small meals throughout the day. You can split breakfast into two, lunch, dinner and a couple of snacks after early evening. Cut carbohydrates in your diet. This would indicate not eating too much of white bread or flour-based products. Contrary to popular belief, fruits are high in natural sugars and can raise your blood sugar. Try not to eat more than three or four in a day. If possible, prepare a mix of the juices of a two-inch piece each of long green squash, bitter gourd and tomato and drink it without straining. Increase fiber content in your food. This will mean sticking to more of vegetables than meat. Include oatmeal and bran in your diet plan. Cut egg yolks, stick to only egg whites.
