Diabetes

Nutrition is a critical part of diabetes care. While balancing the right amount of carbohydrates, fat and protein along with fibre, vitamins and minerals helps all of us to maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle, supplying the diabetic with additional key nutrients has been shown to improve blood sugar control and to help prevent or ameliorate many of the major complications of diabetes. Since the transport of vitamin C into cells is facilitated by insulin, many diabetics do not have enough intracellular vitamin C.

Some newly diagnosed Type I diabetics have experienced complete reversal of their diabetes with Niacin and Niacinamide supplementation. Vitamin B6 supplementation appears to offer significant protection against the development of diabetic nerve disease. Diabetics appear to have an increased requirement for vitamin E, and benefit from high dose supplementation. Onions and garlic have also proved effective in diabetes care, with several studies showing them to have a blood sugar lowering action and helping to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. A recent scientific investigation has upheld the effectiveness of Gymnema and bitter melon preparations in treating both Type I and Type II diabetes.

Nina's Health Protocol:

  • A well-planned diet is crucial for managing diabetes and maintaining stable blood sugar levels. Pay attention to portion sizes to avoid overeating and to maintain consistent carbohydrate intake. Balancing your meals and snacks can help regulate blood sugar levels. Use measuring cups, a food scale, or other portion control tools to ensure accuracy.
  • Plan your meals in advance to ensure a balanced and consistent carbohydrate intake.
  • Regularly monitor your blood sugar levels and adjust your diet and medication accordingly under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
