Nature’s Hidden Secret for Better Diabetes Management!
Hello, dear Ascarit community,
In our previous newsletters, we discussed two important and effective tips: the significance of controlled breathing and the benefits of regular physical activity.
For those who missed it, click here.
The third and final tip in this series is to harness the power of nature! 🌱
Diabetes is more than just a medical condition; it presents a daily challenge. However, armed with knowledge and understanding, managing this challenge becomes simpler and your body healthier.
Increasing awareness about diabetes is crucial, as it dispels misconceptions and fosters understanding—understanding that nature offers a wealth of resources in our fight against diabetes.
One such natural wonder is the White Mulberry, (Morus alba), and here are some of its benefits:
White Mulberry contains compounds that help stabilize blood sugar levels, making it an excellent choice for people with diabetes or those at risk.
A compound called DNJ, found in White Mulberry trees, helps balance and reduce blood sugar levels!
DNJ—Deoxynojirimycin—is a compound that acts as an alpha-glucosidase inhibitor and is crucial in the treatment of diabetes. DNJ inhibits anabolism involved in carbohydrate metabolism, such as the enzyme amylase, which is secreted by the pancreas. By inhibiting these enzymes, DNJ interferes with the breakdown of complex carbohydrates into simple monosaccharides (glucose).
When carbohydrates are consumed in combination with DNJ, the amount of amylase decreases as its binding sites are occupied by DNJ, leading to a reduction in blood sugar levels. This mechanism has garnered significant attention in diabetes research, where DNJ is being studied for its potential anti-diabetic properties.
In addition, White Mulberry is loaded with antioxidants, which help fight oxidative stress and inflammation.
It supports maintaining a healthy weight and aids in weight loss.
Remember, choosing the right natural products is your secret to health.
