What superfood has two nutrients that act like insulin for blood sugar control?

Posted on July 8, 2024November 17, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on What superfood has two nutrients that act like insulin for blood sugar control?

This superfood has two insulin-like nutrients in it. One is an insulin-like phytonutrient called “Polypeptide P”, which combines with insulin receptors to help lower blood sugar. It also has a second nutrient in it that is a phytonutrient called “Charantin” that helps glucose uptake in liver and muscles to store glucose as glycogen This superfood is Bittermelon. It may play an important role in why Okinawans live so long. In addition to the insulin-like nutrients, it’s full of fiber that slows the absorption of sugar and cholesterol. The fiber also supports the growth of healthy gut flora, which helps to control blood sugar as well. It can be eaten as a side dish, and it’s also available as a supplement, typical dosage in research is 2000 milligrams of bittermelon extract per day. As with any supplement, talk with your doctor first before using it.
