Herbs for Diabetes
The medicinal plants play an important role in the treatment of diabetes. Sometimes treatment with herbs and diet alone leads to a positive result in the treatment of type II diabetes. But with the average and severe course of the disease, herbal medicine is only an auxiliary. And this should always be remembered by both patients and health workers.
80 years ago, scientist S. Golib suggested that the role of insulin, regulating carbohydrate metabolism in animals, in plants also perform certain substances. Similar substances have been found in bean pods, alfalfa seed, walnut, dandelion, blueberry and a number of other plants. A positive role can be played by the fructose and alkaline components contained in the plants. This effect has some bitterness - burdock ordinary, St. John's wort, chicory ordinary. Stimulate the production of insulin spices and some juices( potatoes, cabbage, artichoke, carrots, cornelian).This list can be continued further( carbohydrate metabolism is improved by pomegranate, nettle, blackberry, strawberry, mountain ash, dog rose, oat seed, raspberry) - only about 150 plants.
Advantages of medicinal plants before synthetic preparations seem to be obvious: less toxicity, they do not accumulate in the body.
Of course, when choosing medicinal plants for the treatment of diabetes, contraindications should also be considered. Some plants increase blood coagulability, others have a negative effect on kidney function, while others have toxic properties. Therefore, their selection is an individual case for a specific patient and should be conducted by an expert.
I want to pay attention to the medicinal properties of the earth pear - Jerusalem artichoke. Scientifically proven that it contains an insulin-like substance - inulin, which lowers the sugar content in the blood. The Jerusalem artichoke tubers can be used in raw, fried, boiled. Some firms produce it in the form of the drug "inulin", but the effectiveness of these forms is no different from Jerusalem artichoke, eaten as a natural product. It should only be taken into account that this plant sometimes causes problems with the intestines and is undesirable in certain diseases of the thyroid gland. In any case, when using different herbs and fees, it is better to consult a doctor first.
