Are you "jealous"? This is actually a unique skill for sugar control!
In today's society, diabetes has become a common disease due to excessive sugar intake. However, have you ever thought that there is also a stunt in our body to control sugar, which is what Chinese medicine calls "jealousy", which has a unique effect of lowering blood sugar?
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that when sugar invades our body, it causes dampness to appear in our body. Moisture is the main culprit of many diseases, so by controlling the amount of moisture reasonably, you can achieve the effect of controlling blood sugar.
In the ancient books of Chinese medicine, there are many famous prescriptions that mention the curative effect of jealousy. For example, there is a recipe for "rice cereal and vinegar", which is based on rice cereal and added with an appropriate amount of vinegar. This method is widely used in alternate merger medicine and has been shown to be effective in lowering blood glucose levels and inhibiting insulin secretion.
So, why does jealousy help us lower our blood sugar? Scientists have proven through numerous experiments that vinegar contains acetic acid, a compound that can inhibit the activity of enzymes, thereby reducing the rate of blood sugar production. Moreover, vinegar can also play a role in promoting digestion, speeding up the metabolism of food and reducing the retention time of sugar in the body.
In addition, it is also very beneficial to add vinegar in moderation to your daily diet. The citric acid in vinegar can effectively promote intestinal peristalsis, increase the speed of detoxification, and reduce the absorption of sugar in the body. In addition, vinegar also has the function of helping to lower cholesterol and fat content, which is very beneficial for weight control and reducing the risk of diabetes and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Of course, there are some things to be aware of when being jealous. First of all, when choosing vinegar, it is best to choose pure and natural vinegar and avoid products with added artificial colors and preservatives. In addition, vinegar is also highly acidic, which can cause damage to the stomach lining and teeth if used in excess.
To sum up, TCM has rich research and practical experience in the efficacy of diabetes, among which the unique skill of jealousy is a simple and effective method of sugar control. Eating jealousy not only lowers blood sugar levels, but also helps reduce moisture and promote digestion. Therefore, in our daily diet, we can use vinegar in moderation, and choose the right type of vinegar according to our own situation, reasonably adjust the intake of sugar, and prevent and control the occurrence of diabetes.
