Diabetes is no joke. It can damage nerves, cause glaucoma and cataracts, hypertension, kidney disease, stroke and other diseases that could cost your life. Science has come up with a whole range of medicines to fight diabetes, and kidney transplants have become a common solution for diabetic sufferers. But why spend a small fortune on costly medicine, and an expensive kidney transplant when there’s a cheaper, just as effective solution which has no side effects?
That solution is bitter melon — that slender-stemmed annual vine with sweet-smelling yellow flowers and lobed leaves that is popular in Asia. The Chinese varieties are longer and smoother, while their counterparts in India have shorter fruits and more textured skin.
Researchers at the American Botanical Council have good news for diabetics and their loved ones. They found that bitter melon can fight diabetes in more ways than one. Bitter melon can reduce body fat and abnormal triglyceride levels and lipoproteins (LDL) in the bloodstream. The medicinal food shields the liver from free radicals that cause diabetes and other diseases. It also reduces the risk of developing non-alcoholic fatty liver.
Bitter melon is not alone in its work as one of a diabetic patient’s best allies. It has lots of counterparts in natural medicine that fight this disease.
