When it comes to high blood sugar now, everyone is no stranger. High blood sugar is one of the “three highs,” a chronic disease that many people fear. In fact, the main reason for high blood sugar in the body is mostly due to what you “eat”. Don’t be afraid of high blood sugar, eat a little “blood sugar-lowering food” every day, and your blood sugar will stabilize day by day.
Blueberries
Blueberries are a very common fruit that contains flavonoids not found in other fruits. These flavonoids are antioxidants. It is said that people who eat blueberries regularly have a lower risk of developing diabetes, and diabetics who eat blueberries regularly can improve insulin resistance, thus lowering blood sugar.
Eels
Eels contain “Eel Extract A” and “Eel Extract B,” which have the effect of restoring and regulating the normal physiological function of blood sugar. Scientific experiments have proven that eel extract has a significant insulin-like blood sugar-lowering effect.
Solomon’s Seal Rhizome
Solomon’s Seal Rhizome is mild in nature, sweet, and slightly bitter. It belongs to the lung and stomach meridians. It nourishes yin, moisturizes dryness, generates fluids, relieves thirst, improves myocardial ischemia, relieves peripheral blood vessels and coronary arteries when artery-like plaque is formed, prolongs tolerance to hypoxia, strengthens the heart, lowers blood lipids, and decreases blood sugar.
Chinese dendrobium
Chinese dendrobium nourishes yin, clears heat, moisturizes dryness, and has been used since ancient times as a specific medicine for treating diabetes. The polysaccharides in Chinese dendrobium can activate insulin, lower blood sugar, and regular consumption can prevent the incidence of diabetes.
In addition to eating more of the blood sugar-lowering foods mentioned above, the following foods should be consumed in moderation.
Seafood includes: crabs, cuttlefish, catfish, etc.; fruits: longans, dates, persimmons, lychees, etc., which either have high cholesterol content or significantly raise blood sugar after consumption, which is not conducive to controlling postprandial blood sugar. Diabetics should choose carefully.
Furthermore, many people enjoy honey, but those with high blood sugar cannot indulge in such delicacies. This is because honey mainly consists of monosaccharides such as glucose and fructose, which can be absorbed directly by the body, causing blood sugar to rise rapidly. For individuals with high blood sugar, this situation is undoubtedly quite dangerous, so for the sake of health, it is better to abstain from consuming honey.
