The pleasantries of life come in all colors and flavors when it comes to sugary and oily foods. Diabetes is mainly caused by too much of the “sweet and oily life.”
If you have high blood sugar continuously, the cause is most probably the types of food you eat and the amount you consume in proportion to other foods.
According to Prof. Taylor in his “twin cycle hypothesis”: “Type 2 diabetes results from the accumulation of fat in the liver, which induces insulin resistance and increases blood sugar production.” His research shows promising results that suggest the strong possibility that under certain circumstances, type 2 diabetes can be reversed.
Traditional Chinese medicine has known for centuries that blood sugar is an indirect result of the imbalance of certain organs. First on the qi level, then on the function level, and finally on the blood level.
Check out these 5 warning signs for high blood sugar if you’d like to reassure yourself.
By stimulating the acupuncture points of the brain, thyroid, accessory kidney, and the heart related to blood sugar control, diabetes can be effectively prevented. However, it is also very important to pay attention to your diet every day.
