Diabetes: is the solution in berberis?

The vast majority of people with diabetes have type 2 diabetes. Contrary to what the current conventional medicine and the dominant media assert, only drastic changes in lifestyle can regress or reverse this pathology.

These same principles of nutrition obviously help to avoid being affected by this disease.

The first thing to watch is your fasting insulin level. It must be between 2 and 4. This is as vital a blood test as fasting blood sugar. The more your numbers exceed this maximum, the more drastic the measures you will have to implement (4). The reduction of sugars and grains, as well as the massive introduction of healthy fats (i.e. saturated fats) are absolutely essential. Processed (i.e. industrial) foods, all forms of sugar (especially fructose) and whole or unprocessed grains should be banned at all costs.

 

"With age we gain weight. The more weight you gain, the more resistant you become to insulin, and the more your pancreas becomes exhausted. There is then an outbreak of diabetes.
That's why as we age we are more likely to become diabetic
" explained Françoise Heureux, endocrinologist at the Sainte-Elisabeth clinics in Namur

 

The priority is to have a plant-based, complete and fresh diet

It should be remembered that the nutritional recommendations that have been advocated for about 50 years, such as the consumption of fructose, cereals (including whole grains of organic origin), carbohydrates and starchy foods, are all responsible for insulin imbalances.

If you are insulin or leptin resistant, have pre-diabetes or diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, or are overweight, your daily intake of fructose should not exceed 15 grams until your problem is resolved.

In the United States, this measure affects 80% of the population. For the remaining 20%, the daily dose of fructose should be 25 grams maximum.

The transition can be done gradually by integrating low temperature cooked organic vegetables into your diet to move more and more towards raw food.

It is currently known that the main factors of metabolic dysfunctions are corn syrup (excessively rich in fructose and hepatogenic), all sugars, processed cereals, processed fats, sweeteners and all the other synthetic additives used by the large food industry.

By cutting back on grains and sugars, you are obviously removing a lot of energy from your diet. It is therefore essential to provide your body with other sources of energy, energy that you will find through the combination of healthy saturated fats and high quality proteins such as meat, fish, eggs and to a lesser extent through dairy products.

It is obvious that all of these proteins must come from animals raised and fed under organic conditions in order to avoid aggravating your health problems and being contaminated since you already are.

When we talk about proteins, we have to agree on the daily quantity which should be 40 to 70 g of proteins maximum, except in the case of pregnant women who can increase this quantity by 25%.

 

Berberine, a plant that helps reduce blood sugar

berberis aristata

Berberine still little known in our European countries has a spectacular effect in cases of type 2 diabetes, cholesterol and triglyceride disorders, to perform a real vascular protection and to prevent certain neurological disorders or certain types of cancers.

By activating AMPK, berberine increases the expression of the GluT-4 gene, a muscle and adipocyte glucose transporter, facilitates the transport of intracellular glucose and allows for a reduction in blood glucose levels via an improvement in insulin sensitivity.

Berberine has been studied as an adjuvant in type 2 diabetes, with results equivalent to, and sometimes better than, those of metformin. A recent study of 116 patients with type 2 diabetes randomized to receive 1g/d of berberine or placebo for 3 months showed a reduction in carbohydrate parameters: HbA1c from 7.5% to 6.6% and a reduction in fasting blood glucose from 126 to 100.8mg/dl.
