Control Your Blood Sugar Levels With These Home Remedies

Home Remedies To Control Blood Sugar Levels

Diabetes is one of the leading concerns among health professionals today as more and more individuals fall prey to this life-long and dangerous disease. Diabetes is caused when the blood sugar levels rise to an excess and a resistance to insulin results. Once this happens, the diabetic individual can no longer control their blood sugar levels, and they can rise and fall with serious consequences. Yet whether you are diabetic or know someone diabetic or not, it is important to implement measures to control blood sugar levels and to stop the spread of the diabetes in its tracks.

1. Consume More Dairy Products     The protein and fat in dairy products helps improve blood sugar levels, and if the products are low in fat, it has been shown that they can also decreased the chances for developing insulin resistance.  2. Choose the Right Kind of Bread Avoid white flour based products at all costs! These simple carbohydrates are full of sugar that spike up your blood sugar. Instead, you should consume whole wheat or rye products that are high in fiber, protein and complex carbohydrates which control blood sugar levels and keep you full longer.  3. Maximize the Magnesium Magnesium is a mineral known to help prevent the onset of Type II diabetes and should be consumed as much as possible. It is best to consume natural sources of magnesium such as spinach, fish, nuts, leafy greens and avocados. All of these foods have been proved to lower the risk of diabetes and can even aid in weightless.  4. Cardamom is great! Cardamom originates in the ginger family of spices and comes from Asia as well as South America. The spice is known to regulate Type II diabetes and can be sprinkled on coffee, tea, yogurt and even cereal. The spice is known to help decrease blood glucose levels by eighteen to thirty percent. 5. Buckwheat Buckwheat is an excellent source of fiber that you may never have heard of. It also does wonders for maintaining healthy blood sugar levels. Buckwheat comes in the form of soba noodles, which are a delicious substitute for rice or pasta as well as in a number of powders that can be added to baked goods or even on top of a slice of (whole wheat) bread. 6. Drink in Moderation Alcohol contains huge amounts of sugar, and anyone trying to watch out for their blood sugar should definitely moderate the amount of alcohol they consume. It is best to occasionally drink wine with dinner, and not after dinner when the same glass of wine could alter insulin levels in the blood. 7. Watch Fat Intake It is important to watch the amount of saturated fats entering the body because these can seriously increase the chances of contracting diabetes. Saturated fats are usually in fried and junk foods as they are cooked in unhealthy oils.  8. Exercise Daily Getting in exercise each day is critical to maintaining normal blood sugar levels, even if it's a brisk walk in the park.  9. Laughing Yes, this is really one of the tips that will prevent your chances for diabetes. It was found that those who laugh have lower blood sugar levels than those who don't laugh enough (this means you should keep reading our jokes!). 10. Eat Grapefruit Grapefruit has been proved to aid in weight loss as it affects the glucose metabolism, keeping insulin levels steady. 11. Do Resistance Training Building muscle mass is important for burning more glucose out of your system and training once to twice a week could significantly aid in preventing the occurrence of diabetes. 12. Drink Decaf, Not Regular Decaffeinated coffee slows down the rate at which the intestines absorb sugars and speeds up the absorption of sugar by the muscles.  13. Eat Smaller Meals It is best to have a small meal every half hour and then another small meal (or a second half of the regular size meal) later on. In the same vein, it is also important to eat regularly so that insulin levels don't spike. 14. Get Enough Sleep Sleep deprivation can affect blood sugar and insulin levels so it is important to get enough sleep each night. It is also essential to stop snoring because according to some studies, those who snore are more likely to develop diabetes (because snoring is often tied to being overweight).  15. Learn Relaxation Listen to soothing music or read an interesting book, whatever you need to do to relax. Meditation and yoga can also help if they are done properly and on a regular basis.   Images (top to bottom): Naypong, smarnad, piyato, imagerymajestic, Paul/ freedigitalphotos.net

Health Tips: 10 Remedies for Treating an Infected Tooth

Health Tips: 10 Remedies for Treating an Infected Tooth An infected tooth can be one of the most painful infections we may deal with in our day to day lives. Tooth infections are usually caused by bacteria multiplying within the tooth and secreting waste materials, which to us are toxins, and the accumulation of pus in abscesses formed in the tooth. There are several different symptoms associated with an infected tooth, but luckily there are several effective home remedies one can use to relieve the pain associated with this condition.                                                                             Causes of Tooth Infection Tooth abscess (when there is a hollow space within the tooth) is usually related to tooth decay, which can occur from: 1. Trauma to the tooth - A broken or chipped tooth, if not handled correctly, might get infected and develop an abscess. 2. Openings left in the enamel of the tooth may allow entry for harmful bacteria which will spread and infect the center of the tooth. 3. Infection might begin with the root of the tooth or even the jaw bones, and spread to the inside of the tooth through the nerve of the root. 4. If pus is accumulated within the tooth, there could be a swelling of the inner tooth tissue, which will definitely cause infection.   Image by: digitalart / freedigitalphotos.net   Common Symptoms: There are several symptoms associated with a tooth infection, no matter the cause, though, an infected tooth can be extremely painful to bear: 1. A bitter taste in the mouth even after brushing (these are bacteria toxins). 2. Pain that might seem to be coming from a few places on the face or even the temples.  3. Breath might become foul. 4. In certain cases, when left untreated, the infection may cause a fever. 5. Sensitivity to all kinds of pain. 6. Teeth are sensitive to heat or cold. 7. The gums may swell and change color. 8. The jaw may swell as well.                                                    Image by: digitalart / freedigitalphotos.net      10 Home Remedies to Treat the Infection: First of all, an infected tooth should be seen by a dentist. However, if you find yourself unable to reach one soon, or have to wait for your appointment, here's what you can do at home: 1. Avoiding heat Bacteria love heat. It gives them the perfect conditions they need to multiply. So whatever you do, avoid hot beverages and hot food, and let it cool off to room temperature before consuming. 2. Use Ice If the infection is spreading to your jaw and gums, and they begin to swell, you can use an ice pack to reduce the swelling.  Place the ice pack on the cheek above the infected area. The cold will numb the pain and reduce the swelling. 3. Gargling. Take one glass of clean, room temperature water, and add a spoon or 2 of regular table salt. Mix well so the salt doesn't lie on the bottom of the glass. Now gargle this solution several times a day. The salt will dry out the bacteria, and act as a mild antiseptic. The pain will also be reduced. 4. Peroxide Solution Peroxide is great at treating tooth infection as an antiseptic. Use a solution to rinse the mouth frequently. You can also mix it with salt to better deal with the infection. 5. Alcohol As a known antiseptic, alcohol too can help. Take a swig of whiskey or another drink with a high alcohol %, and swirl it in your mouth. You don't have to actually drink it, just holding it in your mouth will help fight the infection and reduce inflammation. 6. Use the extracts of common kitchen ingredients The following extracts will help mitigate the inflammation: - Vanilla extract - Peppermint extract - Lemon / almond extract Use a swab of cotton to gently smear these on the infected area. 7. Oregano Oil The oil extracted from oregano can do wonders for your infected tooth or gum.  Simply add a few drops of olive oil to a cotton swab, add a few drops of oregano oil and apply to the infected area. 8. Apple Cider Vinegar You may already know this one, because apple cider vinegar is known to work magic on infections. Use a cotton ball and soak it in apple cider vinegar. Hold it against the infected area.   9. Ginger Use a fresh piece of ginger and chew on it. The juices released will give you relief from the pain of the inflammation. 10. Fresh potato mash Take a fresh, raw potato. Skin it and cut it to slices. Take the slices and pound them. Add salt to the mash. Now place the mash against the infected area for relief.
