Looking for an Anti-Diabetes Food?
Discover Wild Blueberries: Nature's Anti-Diabetes Food
Wild blueberries work spectacularly well as an anti-diabetes food. They're low in sugar, high in essential phytonutrients and contain myrtillin and pterostilebene, which lower excess blood sugar. Blueberry phytonutrients lutein and fibre can also reduce the risk of diabetes and circulatory disease. So they're a good bet as part of a healthy diet for Type 2 diabetes prevention. If you've already got the disease, they're still a good idea. Blueberry leaf tea has also been shown to lower blood sugar (tannin in the leaves is the active component) and can be helpful in controlling diabetic conditions. Blueberries are great for promoting healthy circulation; blueberry antioxidants strengthen capillaries and blood vessels, improving blood flow rate. Bad circulation can be a problem for diabetics, both in terms of diabetic retinopathy (haemorrhage in the retinas) and poor blood flow, especially to the legs and feet. The antioxidants in blueberries, anthocyanin in particular, can reduce or prevent these complications. If you're looking for a healthy addition to your diet you won't find one tastier than wild blueberries.
