Title: Diet to control blood sugar from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine: more vegetables, less oil and salt.
Dear readers, do you often have trouble with high blood sugar problems?In the view of traditional Chinese medicine, diet is an important means of regulating blood sugar. Today, I will share with you how to control blood sugar through a reasonable diet from the perspective of Chinese medicine.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that blood sugar levels in the human body are closely related to the function of internal organs and the flow of qi and blood. After digestion and absorption, food is converted into qi and blood energy to supply the operation of various tissues and organs throughout the body. Therefore, a proper diet is essential for regulating blood sugar.
In the dietary principles of Chinese medicine, vegetables occupy an important place. Vegetables are rich in a variety of nutrients such as dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals, which help lower blood sugar and stabilize blood sugar fluctuations. Traditional Chinese medicine suggests that the intake of vegetables should be appropriately increased in the daily diet, especially green leafy vegetables, fruits and vegetables and other varieties rich in dietary fiber.
At the same time, controlling the intake of oil and salt is also an important means of regulating blood sugar. Too much fat can lead to excess energy, leading to obesity and other problems, which in turn affects the stability of blood sugar.
Excessive salt intake will increase the burden on the kidneys and affect the normal secretion of insulin, resulting in an increase in blood sugar. Therefore, it is recommended to choose low-fat and low-salt cooking methods in your daily diet and avoid eating high-fat and high-salt foods.
In addition to dietary conditioning, TCM also emphasizes the role of exercise in regulating blood sugar. Proper exercise can promote the circulation of qi and blood, enhance the function of the internal organs, and help lower blood sugar levels. It is recommended to choose an exercise method that suits you according to your own situation, such as traditional fitness methods such as Tai Chi and Baduanjin, as well as aerobic exercises such as walking and jogging.
