Use Effective Herbs for Diabetes Natural Treatment
Diabetes mellitus or simply diabetes is a metabolic disorder. It is one of the most common non-infectious disease and frequent cause of the death in developed countries. Diabetes happens because a patient has a very high blood sugar. Usually there are two types of diabetes. First one occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin and the second one begins when cells do not respond to the produced insulin.
Heredity is a very important factor for the first type of diabetes. Virus infections, like measles or stress also may impel this disease. The second type of diabetes mostly fatigues people who are overweight or obese and not enough physically active.
Increased hunger and thirst, frequent urination, etc are the most usual signs of diabetes. These symptoms may develop in a few weeks or months (1st type) or opposite- very slowly (2nd type).
Other typical signs of this disease are weight loss, tiredness, general weakness, muscle spasms, also nausea and vomiting, stomach ache, itchy skin and others. When the first type of diabetes occurs, patient needs to be taken to the hospital as soon as possible otherwise he may lose consciousness (diabetic coma) and even die. Second type of this disease develops slowly; it is mostly diagnosed when complications of diabetes occur, such as fungous diseases and lesions of blood vessels.
Useful herbs: Since the ancient times herbs were widely used for diabetes treatment and were proven to be very effective. You can also try them, let’s take a look.
1. Indian Kino: It is also known as malabar kino, which is commonly used in India as a remedy from diabetes. It regenerates pancreatic cells, so it is very effective for patients who are sick with the second type of this disease.
2. Bitter Melon: Try to drink juice of this tropical vegetable; it is very beneficial and well known for its blood sugar lowering properties. Though be careful and do not use it in very big amounts.
3. Cinnamon: It has valuable insulin-like properties and also decreases glucose in the blood. Cinnamon also has the ability to block free radicals, and it is very useful.
4. Onion: Use onion in food, it has blood sugar lowering properties so it is highly recommended for people who are sick with diabetes.
5. Fenugreek: This plant is cultivated worldwide and helps to control weight so it is obviously useful. Fenugreek lowers blood sugar levels and cholesterol in the blood.
6. Blueberry Leaves: It has been used for a long time. A single dose can help a lot – patient may feel better for the whole week! Blueberry leaves lower blood sugar levels as well.
If you are at the risk to get ill with diabetes, you can help yourself and lower it. The main thing is that you need to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Exercise at least once in a week; it effectively reduces the risk. Also, lose weight if you are overweight or obese, which is very important. Be sure your diet is low in calories, eat more fruit and vegetables. Better give up smoking and drink alcohol wisely.

If you are a type 2 diabetic, there is hope. Click on link below to watch a short online clip about six people who reversed their diabetes and were able to get off insulin. There is no magic pill to cure diabetes. Chromium picolinate has shown promise in recent studies to help us have healthier blood sugars though. It can help your mood too.

thanx
Best answer:
Answer by Lady Aqua Moon
Do not take supplements during breastfeeding.
Just lower your calorie intake. That’s what I did and I have lost 10 pounds so far. I was eating around 1800 calories but I have since cut down to 1500.
You need to still eat good fats like olive oil for your milk supply.

Kids Wont Eat Vegetables? Mrs. Obama Says Let Them Eat Steakand Arugula: Five Expert Tips to Adjust your Child’s Palate
BOULDER, CO (PRWEB) November 16, 2011
My favorite is arugula and steak, said Mrs. Obama, during a round table discussion at MaO Organic Farms in Waiane, Hawaii on Saturday. But we find the same thing is true with young kids, and if they get their palates adjusted to those very interesting flavors, they stay connected. (source)
Thats exactly what happens, agreed child eating expert Nancy Tringali Piho, author of the book My Two-Year-Old Eats Octopus: Raising Children Who Love to Eat Everything (Bull Publishing Company, ISBN: 978-1-933503-17-2, $ 16.95.)
When children eat beyond a steady diet of kiddie foods, their taste buds grow to appreciate a broader variety of flavors. So foods that are bitter or sour, or those made with a combination of flavors or a more complex texture, actually taste better than the standard fat-salt-sweet that is the flavor profile of everyday childrens foods,” says Piho.
Piho offers 5 tips to adjust childrens palates:

Diet Supplements – Pills Versus Herbs
by Ken Lund
Diet supplement is a billion-dollar business and they are great if taken what is needed. Many often treat them as a cure all and this is where the problem starts. More pills are popped in without knowing how the body will react to it. As a result some suffers from diarrhoea or constipation. In fact many foods offer a variety of vitamins that we need everyday to sustain life. They are natural and safe and from Mother Nature but we prefer the quick fix the supplements that offer A-Z vitamins.
Ying and Yang must be balanced in our diet. Supplements often isolate only one compound and it is the Ying aspect. Pills tend to be heaty and we need to take in lots of water. It is a best practice to stop taking supplement if it does not work on you otherwise the liver is going to work extra hard to process it.
One supplement, Chlorella, a blue green algae taken as a capsule does a great job of providing nutrients and cleaning out impurities in our body such as heavy metals and other toxins. It is highly recommended. But remember supplements are only meant to supplement our daily diet and not to replace intake of food. If one is having a surgery it is advisable to avoid taking supplements.
Herbs or medicine traditionally used in Asia to treat the sick has been around for many thousand years. Many royal and noble families had been cured by these methods in the old days. In modern days some still think only pills or western drugs can heal. Ironically, the western doctors are now learning more about herbs in their training or apprenticeship. Now you have new Medical courses incorporating Chinese medicine in some Prestigious Universities. I strongly believe a breakthrough will come to pass in the areas of Nutrition and Diet.
Herbs as the Chinese practised are to treat the symptoms by understanding how our bodies behaved metabolically. In other words our body system has to be balanced.
This means a certain deficiency in vitamins or nutrient will result in fever for example. The objective is to kill the root of the problem without affecting other internal organs of the body.
Herbs when properly prescribed are safe and effective. To raise the standard and the safety of TCM specialists, the Sinseh or Chinese doctors have to be registered and certified in China, Hong Kong and Singapore.
The goal of the Chinese Herbal Medicine is to find the right prescription to treat our body in balance. You can say it customises to keep our Ying and Yang in check.
Lately there are concerns over the drug scandals in China but make sure that the herbs are free from lead, mercury and other undesirable chemicals. Check with the relevant Food Authority before the purchase.

A New Spin on Comfort Foods Pleases Aging Palates
Palo Alto, CA (PRWEB) November 10, 2011
To meet the culinary challenge of appealing to senior taste buds with healthy versions of familiar foods, Home Care Assistance, North Americas leading provider of non-medical, in-home senior care, and Sur La Table, are hosting innovative cooking classes for caregivers. A new class kicks off today at Sur La Table in Palo Alto, CA.
Home Care Assistance initiated the classes as part of its commitment to improving the lives of seniors through its Balanced Care Method (BCM), an approach to caregiving based on the positive health practices of the legendary centenarians of Okinawa, Japan. Proper nutrition is a key component of BCM which emphasizes five main elements: healthy diet, physical activity, mental alertness and social ties, as well as maintaining calmness and purpose.
We invest in training our caregivers because we want our clients to enjoy longer, happier, healthier and more balanced lives, said Kathy Johnson, PhD, CMC, Founder and CEO of Home Care Assistance. Through these new cooking classes, which are unique in our industry, were teaching our caregivers to prepare foods that bring back childhood memories while also emphasizing wholesome, seasonal ingredients.
We encourage the caregivers to come up with their own food ideas, said Gale Tan, resident chef at Sur La Table who oversees the culinary program and manages chef instruction. And we also recommend that they listen carefully to their clients and find out about their dietary preferences and restrictions.
The monthly classes, taking place at Sur La Table in the Palo Alto Town and Country shopping center, will cover a full range of diet-related issues faced by seniors. To boost the nutritional value of these comfort foods, Home Care Assistance caregivers serving clients in the South Bay and Peninsula are learning how to enhance food flavors with herbs and spices, instead of relying on unhealthy options like butter and salt.
They will also gain experience with techniques such as steaming, stir-frying and cooking in parchment to stimulate the taste buds, and improve the appetites and diets of aging adults who often turn to processed foods or dinners heated in the microwave for their daily meals.
The Sur La Table cooking class was really helpful, said Home Care Assistance caregiver Genise Pelaiz. The recipes they put together were easy, fun and delicious. More importantly, we learned that we didnt have to rely on frozen prepared foods. We could easily provide tasty, nutritious meals for our clients, since they dont tend to keep a lot of ingredients on hand. For one client, I cooked roasted vegetables and potatoes with a little seasoning in a toaster oven and, while it sounds simple, she was very pleased.
Caregivers in the Sur La Table cooking class will get to try out healthier recipes for old favorites such as tuna casserole and chicken noodle soup. And they will learn the latest information on incorporating super foods into daily diets; for instance adding sources of omega-3 fatty acids like flax seed to salad dressings, or topping pancakes with antioxidant-rich blueberries.
We want all of our caregivers to be familiar and comfortable cooking basic healthy fare, Dr. Johnson added. We want them to know they can go into a clients kitchen and whip up a decent meal. And our caregivers get a kick out of learning that cooking is an art, its not just about following a recipe.
