<![CDATA[All about Diabetes]]>I think it all boils down to proper food intake. I’ve been diabetic for 3 years now. Although it runs in the family, I think my love for carbs and sweets worsened it. Stay away from these foods as much as possible.

The main reason for it is our lifestyle. We are drinking soft drinks like it is water. We need to cut down on the sugar and change our lifestyle. If we don’t take care of our own health, then who would?

But actually, I would like to suggest that people switch to quinoa instead.


A quick search shows that quinoa scores higher on the GI levels than white or brown rice, which is great for people suffering from diabetes. There’s a lot more fiber and anti-oxidants that comes with it, so why not? Getting more bang for your buck, I feel.

My dad was suffering from diabetes so I decided to make a switch to quinoa and his doctor says that his sugar level has significantly reduced. Slowly, the whole family is eating quinoa now. I think best to try incorporating quinoa into your diet then brown rice since it’s better anyways…

Estéema:
One thing I must share as I was using some USA products like USANA & my family (in-laws, etc) using other products sold so commonly in stores like GNCs, etc and I asked my family doc why HPB allows the sale when there’s no basis for their claims. He said some tablets claim to cure arthritis, diabetes, chronic kidney diseases, etc are just placebos. It’s just the way they phrased their mktg/advertisement if they say “help with yr joints” or “help with yr eyes health” then it is allowed & ppl think those expensive tablets improve our eyesights, etc. There’s no recorded cures for some of our common maladies except taken as herbs & vitamins.


Having said that, many of these claims fr US companies are MLM & very costly to even throw money for its claims.

@ MMM there was a Physician in the US, Harriet Hall, who had reviewed the scientific literature related to the assessment of ASEA as a dietary supplement, noting that there is no acceptable published evidence to confirm that it has any health benefits in humans.

Hope it helps.
Even in USA, supplements don’t have to get FDA’s approval.

Btw, my sister took USANA for knee pain and it didn’t help. What are you taking USANA for?

I am personally still skeptical although they thought of swear by it. Unsure if anyone has experience with this too.

@ ngl2010 You took the words out of me!


Even if there are peer reviews, it depends on how accepted & if it’s alr been tested. Rmbr the Korean doc who claimed success in genes research? He was stripped of his title after being found for fraud & finds withdrawn. For most normal ppl, do not need to hv extra alkaline intake. Indiscriminate dousing ourselves will cause more health issues.
Completely agree, Esteema.

Pls be very careful with claims. How exactly does it “gives good results”? In what way one “getting much better every day”? Is it scientifically proven? Do you know what side effects it gives Best check with the Health Authorities.

slmkhoo:
Found this article which says that alkaline water as sold for drinking or produced in the home is not dangerous, but doesn't do anything much:

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/27/well/eat/alkaline-water-health-benefits.html
Quoting from the article

“There are also hints of potential risks from alkaline water. Rat pups given alkaline water showed impaired growth and damage to cardiac muscle. And a 2015 report said that when a municipal water plant in a town in Germany accidentally increased the water’s pH to 12, skin burns ensued. While such a high pH is unlikely in bottled alkaline water, it’s a reminder that a higher pH isn’t necessarily better.

“The only health effects that we know of are danger signs, so for people to continue to market alkaline water — they’re really as bad as the snake oil salesmen of yesteryear,” Dr. Fenton said.”

Avalokit:
The most economical, most convenient and most effective way to regain better health is to invest in a reliable alkaline water system. It is effective in fighting diabetic n many many others health complication. For more inquiry on coral pure natural alkaline water, u can contact 86851308.

OMG :faint: This is a very dangerous claim. Do you have any research done to prove your statement? Our stomach is acidic. And it has its purpose for being acidic. By drinking alkaline water, the stomach’s pH will change. In the long run, what will happen? Just by this logic, it doesn’t make sense to alter the pH in our stomach. How will it function then? Worse is if the stomach cells mutate because the environment has changed and they become cancerous cells (I just anyhow say this. Same like what you did. No research said that they will become cancerous cells.)

Also do you know that nitric oxide is a molecule that is produced by our body and is a very important molecule for our cardiovascular health. By the age of 60, majority of our body can only 15% nitric oxide and thus causing us a lot of dis-ease

If you are interested to find out more about nitric oxide, you can pm me, I am happy to share more info and let everyone not only live longer but also healthier. Good health is the best wealth 😃

phtthp:
if eat brown rice, instead of white rice : will it remove diabetics ?


diabetics is chronic disease, no cure. can put under control
brown rice is less sugar than white rice, it does not cure diabetics
the patients need to avoid high sugar food ,thus brown rice is a choice
