3 Simple and Profound Health Tips for ....

Balancing our Blood Sugars- and how it affects all of us, not just Diabetics.

Did you realize there are just as many people suffering from “low blood sugars”,
on a daily basis, as there are high blood sugars?
Not the low’s experienced from “insulin induced low’s, I am referring to the low blood sugar’s caused by:
-excess stress,
-improper eating habits,
- and little or no exercise.

Diabetes, is everywhere, and everyone is scrambling to “cure this dis-ease”.

It is a rare occurrence for there to be information presented on both aspects
of these “blood sugar imbalances”, the low and the high.

I would like to bring this into the awareness to-day, so we can re-consider how this affects all of us.

When you haven’t eaten for 4 or 5 hours, you may suddenly feel
hungry, or shaky, tired or crabby.

I suffered with these symptoms, and I didn’t know what it was.

These feelings can be an indication that your body needs food, the blood sugars are
dropping, and it is giving you the warning signal.
We can experience fluctuating low blood sugars for quite a long time,
years, and not even realizing what our problem is.
If you crave sugar in the afternoon, like sweets, pasta, juice, coffee, donuts,
then there is a good chance your blood sugars are dropping or have dropped too fast.
This is creating the craving for sugar.

Imbalanced blood sugars create MANY health problems,
including, heart, memory, and circulation problems.

We are into November Diabetes Awareness Month.

I would encourage us all to consider that November is: “ Balancing Blood Sugar Month.

Notice how you are feeling in the afternoon, and how much fast acting carbohydrates are you eating?
How do you feel afterwards? Perhaps you have a blood sugar imbalance you weren’t aware of.

Pretend you are a diabetic for a day, and really notice, and ask yourself, how much insulin would
I need to administer to myself, if I was a Type I Diabetic, for the meal I just ate?
This can help us become aware of our eating habits, and encourage us to make small changes now,
so we don’t build the more serious health challenges later.
3 SIMPLE AND PROFOUND HEALTH TIPS FOR BALANCING YOUR BLOOD SUGARS:
1.Start your day with an easy to digest protein, such as hemp hearts, hemp protein, or eggs with enzymes if you do not have hemp available.
2.Eat every 2 hours, never go 4 or 5 hours without a snack.
The best snacks are:
-nuts and seeds chewed well, or nut butters.
-- fresh organic or homegrown vegetables,
-and fresh fruit.
Dried Goji berries and Mulberries are also excellent to mix with your raw nuts.
3.When you are eating a high carbohydrate meal like pasta, include a BIG GREEN SALAD,
to provide the fibre required to slow down the blood sugar spike, created from eating fast releasing carbohydrate foods. All green foods also provide the minerals and alkaline effect we are looking for to improve our health.

Remember, blood sugar’s effect all of our health, the more we become aware, the better choices we can make.
