Type 2 diabetes is a condition that is affecting many people all over the world, and the lifelong condition can only be managed, not cured. A way to help manage blood sugar levels for type 2 diabetics, even more, is through taking supplements.
Express reports that supplements can help healthy lifestyle changes along in order to promote better overall health. It is especially helpful for those who suffer from serious health conditions such as type 2 diabetes. Three kinds of supplements can help type 2 diabetics manage their blood sugar levels: Chromium, magnesium, and quercetin. These three supplements can not only help manage blood sugar levels but also lower resistance to insulin as well as prevent complications that are related to the disease.
Magnesium can help reduce the risk of developing the disease. Experts recommend taking 100mg of magnesium or incorporating 100mg of magnesium to the diet every day in order to lower the risk of developing diabetes by 15 percent. On the other end, a person who is diagnosed with the condition may also be suffering from a magnesium deficiency.
As for chromium, many studies have found that this supplement can help regulate a person’s blood glucose levels. A study conducted back in 2012 found that chromium helps boost insulin function, thus regulating blood sugar levels. As for quercetin, a recent study in 2019 showed that taking 500 mg of quercetin led to reduced metabolic syndrome. Quercetin can be found in onions, olive oil, citrus fruits, red grapes, and berries.
Meanwhile, other than supplements, a report reveals that eating a certain superfood can help lower blood sugar levels in type 2 diabetics. Chia seeds can help lower blood sugar levels among many other types of food. These super-seeds are packed with nutrients such as antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and magnesium that can help with overall health. An ounce of chia seeds already contains almost 10g of fiber. How much chia seeds are needed in a serving would depend on age and sex. As far as fiber is concerned, adults are advised to take between 22.4 and 33.6 g of fiber every day.
Chia seeds can also be easily digested and are gluten-free, which is great for those who are allergic to gluten or are on gluten-free diet plans.
