Do Not Lay Down and Take This. Fight Back!

Many times when the doctor informs you that you have metabolic syndrome, elevated blood sugar levels, or Type 2 Diabetes, you just lay down and take it! Is that what you are doing? Click Here!
Don't take it! Fght back! Diabetes can be a death sentence but it does not have to be. It is up to you. You can stop the progression of the disease!

I have been studying this disease for the last 23 years. I am not a professional nor am I a medical expert on this disease. I, however, do have a personal interest in it. Both my husband and my mother have the disease. As a matter of fact, my mom lost a leg to diabetes. So you might say I have a vested interest in what I can do to prevent ending up the same way.

There are lots of studies on diabetes and there are several great ways to help you win the war on diabetes. Here are some tips I have learned!

Lose weight!
Add more fiber to your diet! It helps you lose weight and lower blood sugar.

Drink chamomile tea!
Studies with lab rats who were given chamomile tea, had significant decrease in blood sugar levels and lower levels of compounds that can cause diabetes.

Eat small meals and do not skip meals!
This helps you keep your blood sugar level and prevent overeating.

Exercise! Click Here!
A Washington University School of Medicine study found that exercise may protect your heart long after. Sugary snacks cause blood vessels to temporarily lose their elasticity, which over time increases heart disease risk.

However, physical activity can help. When researchers fed each subject a candy bar and a soda 17 hours after doing one hour of moderate intensity cardio, the exercisers were able to pump 28% more blood than those who had rested and ate the same amount of sugar.

Hit the disease early and hit it hard!
In one study researchers used drugs to control glucose levels, high cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood pressure. The results showed they slashed the risk of dying within 13 years by 20%,

In another study, an attempt to play catch-up and get glucose levels under tight control in older and sicker diabetics turned out to be dangerous and this trial had to be stopped prematurely. Click Here!

A third study showed the body has something researchers called metabolic memory. People who get their glucose levels down right after diagnosis had a 13% lower risk of dying a full decade later even if they let blood sugar increase in the ensuing years.

In conclusion, the minute the doctor tells you that your glucose levels are elevated or that you have prediabetes, you must take action because by the time the disease is full blown, the damage is already done.

Get serious about fighting diabetes! Start eating healthy, exercising, and taking the medications your doctor prescribes. You will have a better chance to live a longer healthier life!Click Here!

Every year some 234,000 people die from complications caused by diabetes! Do not become a statistic! Click Here!

Take care! God bless!
