Manage your blood sugar and diabetes with these four herbs
Gymnema Sylvestre
Known by its Hindi name as the "sugar destroyer," this plant is regarded as
one of the most powerful herbs for the regulation of diabetes, Types 1 and 2.
Besides reducing cravings for sweets, studies show Gymnema can actually
stimulate the body to produce more of its own insulin, by regenerating insulin-
making beta cells in the pancreas. Though more extensive studies are pending, the
herb has demonstrated no side effects and assumes its sugar-lowering role only in
cases of diabetes, at a typical dosage of 200-250 milligrams twice daily.
Ginseng
Chinese medicine has made regular use of Asian ginseng for thousands of
years, thanks to its demonstrated ability both to amplify the release of insulin from
the pancreas and to elevate the number of insulin receptors present. One study
indicated that 200 milligrams of ginseng extract per day over an eight-week
period improved mood, blood sugar control, body weight and energy levels in
Type 2 diabetics. A separate study on the North American variety indicates the
herb significantly prevented oxidative stress and may even help diabetics to
protect against kidney disease.
Gingko biloba
Because of its effective increase of blood flow to areas such as the brain,
the limbs and the extremities, ginkgo is regarded as an important element in the
treatment of vascular insufficiency - especially as it relates to diabetes, where poor
circulation can have severe consequences. Clinical studies have shown the herb
can prevent diabetic retinopathy in diabetic rats and may, therefore, be similarly
effective in humans. For these purposes, a typical dosage of Ginkgo extract is 40-
80 milligrams (at a concentration of 24 percent ginkgo flavoglycoside) three times
daily.
Nopal leaves
Other nutritive solutions for managing diabetes include eating more onions
and garlic, whose sulfur-containing allyl propyl disulfide (APDS) helps the body
to make better use of insulin (which is also a disulfide) by competing with it for
insulin-inactivating sites in the liver. The result is that the body has more free
insulin available for use in the glucose-to-energy conversion process, and blood
sugar levels decrease.
