Lower Your Blood Sugar Starting with This One Step
The next time you sit down for a meal, do not start with salad, soup or bread. Dig right in to the main protein! A new study from Weill Cornell Medical College in New York found that the blood sugar level of folks who follow this advice is 40% lower after a meal, enough to significantly reduce the odds of diabetes and to avoid “rebound hunger”.
Because protein takes longer to digest than carbs, even the healthy carbs in fruits and vegetables, it slows the rate at which your body breaks down other foods. And that, in turn, leads to a slower, steadier release of blood sugar.
Watch Sitcoms Too!
In a recent study, the blood sugar of prediabetes, women who watched funny TV shows with amusing characters, such as Sheldon in The Big Bang Theory, daily plunge 37%, no meds needed. Hearty laughing uses blood sugar the same way exercise does, it also may reduce stress hormones that can keep blood sugar high.
