3 Nutrition Tips To Manage Your Blood Sugar Naturally

2. Eat your greens – there are many benefits of plant-based eating

In recent years, plants and their bioactive compounds rich in phytochemicals have been found to be effective in the treatment of T1DM and T2DM, without unwanted side effects. Nutrients such as Vitamin E, chromium, magnesium, alpha lipoic acid, along with green tea extract, ginseng, cacao bean, rosemary extract, globe artichoke and psyllium husk all contain natural anti-diabetic mechanisms. In addition to a healthy balanced diet, and where blood sugar balance and overall metabolic health are primary health goals, including a premium, multi-nutrient greens powder such as Nuzest’s Good Green Vitality which provides 75+ plant-based ingredients, in a convenient formulation to support glycaemic control and improve insulin sensitivity for those with diabetes.

3. Optimise protein for metabolic health

When it comes to our metabolic health, a combined high-protein diet and exercise regime significantly improves blood sugar balance and insulin sensitivity. Plant proteins are a good source of many essential amino acids, and vital macronutrients, and are sufficient in achieving complete protein nutrition. A good quality plant protein, such as Nuzest Clean Lean Protein, consumed at meal and snack times not only helps to fulfill your appetite, but also supports a lowered blood-sugar response post-consumption, and promotes calorie burning via thermogenesis. High protein diets can also support an increase in weight loss while preserving lean body mass.
