Honey and its benefits for diabetes


Honey as a drink which is very beneficial for health in recent years has mushroomed in the community. As part of Healthy house, drinks are promoted by Muhammad sallallaahu 'alaihi wasallam is truly magical and nutritious treat various diseases. But there are few obstacles, whether honey is safe for consumption by people with the disease diabetes (Diabetes)? Is not honey that tastes "sweet" is precisely to improve blood sugar levels? This article hopefully will help you ..

In The Journal of Medical Food in 2004, Waili NS reported research on the effects of honey on plasma glucose, C-reactive protein (CRP), and blood lipids in healthy individuals, patients with diabetes, and the excess lipid.

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) or diabetes occurs due to a disturbance in the pancreas that produce insulin. Though insulin is needed to enter the blood glucose into cells. With this state of the blood glucose levels in people with diabetes is very high.

Research by Waili and his friends showed some results. First, in healthy people, it turns ordinary sugar (dekstose) increased plasma glucose levels 52% in the first hour and 3% in two hours, while the original honey increases plasma glucose levels of 14% in the first hour and 10% in two hours. It can be concluded that honey is only slightly improving blood sugar levels compared to other sugars. Second, ordinary sugar and artificial honey also increase triglyceride levels, whereas the original honey lowers triglycerides and increase levels of good cholesterol (HDL). Third, the honey is consumed during the 25 days it lowers total cholesterol and bad cholesterol (LDL) and increase good cholesterol (HDL).

In diabetic patients, honey can lower total cholesterol, LDL and CRP. Honey can be used as an alternative sweetener because in addition to a better metabolism, may also increase levels of insulin than sucrose.

From these studies, it appears that honey can reduce blood glucose levels and reduce the risk of heart disease in diabetic patients thereby replacing sweetened with raw honey (raw honey) provides many advantages.

In China, has marketed a product combination of pollen and propolis Fengzhen claimed its researchers can control blood sugar and fat. In addition, these drugs can be said also relaxes blood vessels, improving circulation to prevent complications of diabetes. The same researchers also succeeded in proving the effects of propolis in treating diabetes mellitus as well as other traditional therapies, but more rapidly in lowering blood sugar levels. Also propolis member good effect in diabetic patients with disorders of gingivitis and fungi in the mouth.

Honey is rich in complex carbohydrates and peptides that require enzymatic process that can be burned as energy. This makes honey a type of sugar "slow burn" or have a low glycemic index is not burdensome to insulin. However, some honey has a glycemic index is sufficiently large so consider what type of honey is most suitable for diabetes and cholesterol disorders.

HERB FOR HEALTH (TUMERIC)


If in the definition of herbal medicine is explained a lot about the kinds of herbs, then the next we will discuss herbs for health because it is based on expert research on many diseases that can cure with herbs without using chemicals
And this time the discussion was "saffron transform and brain health"
and explanation as follows:...

Turmeric not only flavor the dish and bring the aroma of savory and seductive colors. A new finding reveals the benefits of turmeric for the brain.

Turmeric not only adds flavor to foods, but also beneficial to brain health. The researchers found that the spices are commonly used as spices may contain compounds that may help prevent nerve disease.

Lots of drugs derived from nature. Such as aspirin and quinine, both derived from the bark of trees, while digitalis, cardiovascular medicine, derived from the flowers. Researcher Dave Schubert of the Salk Institute in San Diego examined the turmeric, a spice commonly used, especially in South Asia and Southeast Asia, including Indonesia.


\ "If you look at the epidemiology of Alzheimer's in India, and compared with other countries, India has a rate of Alzheimer's are much lower compared to other countries, \" said Schubert.

Curcumin is believed to give protection to the brain. Curcumin is believed to give protection to the brain.

He and other researchers believe one reason is to consume turmeric may have a protective effect on the brain and nervous system. This allegation is not easy to prove, but Schubert began by examining some of the compounds of spices. He found that at least one compound, curcumin, has the effect protect the brain cells of laboratory animals with neurological injury.

Curcumin did not directly work on the brain, but rather to protect some parts of the body, how typical of medicines derived from nature.

\ "Turmeric is an antioxidant, prevents inflammation, \" said Schubert. \ "So, maybe turmeric does not necessarily indicate the effect, but rather are additive or indirect impact. \"

Schubert believes may curcumin from turmeric and other compounds can be used to actually protect the brain from traumatic brain injury, stroke or even Alzheimer's.

\ "The idea is to give drugs such as curcumin or the other before the people affected by concussion and other injuries, and drugs that might prevent or reduce the effects of those cuts, \" said Schubert. \ "So prevention is certainly a major aspect. \"

Schubert has been working with a number of scientists in several laboratories, and they have several research papers that have been published. He tried to interest the pharmaceutical industry and the military to be invited to cooperate in creating drugs from turmeric. Meanwhile, he said, certainly does not hurt to keep adding saffron in your cooking.

Olive oil herb that many benefits for health


After a vacuum for some time, this time the author will continue the discussion on herbal remedies and on this occasion will be discussed regarding the "usefulness of olive oil for health"
one herb that is known is olive oil based on research by experts, concluded that Olive oil has many properties that prevent stroke and describes their Elderly people who consume olive oil have a lower risk of stroke than those who do not consume it, say some researchers, in a study released on Wednesday (15 / 6) in the United States.

Some of the scientists at the National Institute of Health and Medical Research in Bordeaux, France, followed a 7625 French people aged 65 years and over, from three major cities - Bordeaux, Dijon and Montpellier - for 5 years.

During the study, there were 148 people who had a stroke. The object of research was divided into several groups according to their actions using olive oil, ranging from people who do not use it at all until they are used in serving food, cooking and making bread.


When the researchers adjusted for various factors such as body weight, physical activity and diet as a whole, they found their so-called olive oil users "intensive" has a 41 percent lower risk of stroke compared with those who never consume olive oil.

"Our research shows a new series of food advice should be issued to prevent strokes in people aged 65 years and over," said study author, Cecilia Samieri, as reported by AFP.

Meanwhile Dr. Nikolaos Scarmeas, a neurologist at Columbia University Medical Center in New York who wrote an editorial published with the study, said "We need to remember this is an observational study."

The study found an association between the use of olive oil by humans and stroke risk they face, said Scarmeas told Reuters Health, which monitored ANTARA here on Thursday. But, he said, it does not necessarily translate into causality.

"People who consume olive oil may be very different from people who do not use it," said Scarmeas. Users olive oil, for example, may have a higher income, better overall eating or exercising more frequently than those who never consume olive oil.

Researchers in the new study, led by Cecilia Samieri, trying to account for those differences. And once they do,olive oil still shown to have ties to a lower risk of stroke.

But Scarmeas said that was unlikely to fully account for all the variables. What is needed, he says, is a clinical trial, the subjects were randomly assigned to use olive oil or not, and then followed its development from time to time to see who had a stroke.

Such a clinical trial is seen as the "gold standard" of medical evidence.

"Stroke is common among the elderly, and olive oil would be an easy and inexpensive way to help prevent it," said Cecilia Samieri.

The findings are published in the media journal of the American Academy of Neurology, "Neurology".

As is known, olive oil is one of the alternative drugs recommended in Islam.
