NIGERIAN SUPERFOODS THAT HELP REVERSE DIABETES NATURALLY
Trust you had a fun-filled weekend.
Today we'll be looking at how some Nigerian Foods can help reverse diabetes.
Several studies conducted by the Diabetes Prevention Program have revealed that simple diet and lifestyle
changes worked much better to reverse diabetes than the leading glucose drugs. In fact, they worked twice as well.
Here are a few Nigerian super foods that are especially good for those with diabetes:
1. Non-Starchy Vegetables
Non-starchy vegetables have fewer carbs per serving. They include everything from Ugu leaves and the common efo [spinach]. This category of vegetables goes a long way in satisfying your hunger and boosting your intake of vitamins, minerals, fiber, and phytochemicals. These vegetables are also low in calories and carbohydrates, making them some of the few foods that people with diabetes can enjoy.
In fact, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) identifies most non-starchy vegetables as low GI foods
with a ranking of 55 or less. A small study of 11 people found that a low-calorie diet consisting of non-starchy
vegetables may successfully reverse type 2 diabetes.
2. Non-Fat or Low-Fat Plain Milk and Yogurt
Vitamin D is essential for good health. One of its roles is to keep bones healthy, yet many of us don’t get as much as we need. Non-fat dairy foods, including milk and yogurt, are fortified with vitamin D. These dairy products are smart choices for diabetics because they have low GI scores:
Skim milk has a GI score of 32 while reduced fat yogurt has a GI score of 33. Yogurt is also a good source of probiotic which rewires the pancreas. Dairy intake, especially low-fat dairy, is also associated with a 9 percent lower risk for type 2 diabetes.
3. Tomatoes
Tomatoes whether eaten raw or cooked, tomatoes are full of lycopene. This a powerful substance that may reduce the risk of cancer (especially prostate cancer), heart disease, and macular degeneration.
Like other non-starchy fruits, tomatoes have a low GI ranking. One study found that 200 grams of raw tomato (or about 1.5 medium tomatoes) each day reduced blood pressure. Researchers concluded tomato consumption might help reduce cardiovascular risk that’s associated
with type 2 diabetes.
