Diabetes Juice: Grapefruit
Quite a lot of research has been conducted to test the effects of grapefruit juice on diabetes. Naringin, a bioactive compound in grapefruit significantly lowers the blood glucose in people having diabetes, and aids in weight loss too. Even when tested against metformin, a drug often prescribed for people with type 2 diabetes, grapefruit generated positive effects that were equal to those produced by the drug.
Recipe:
Ingredients: 1 celery stalk, 1 medium sized or 2 small limes, 1 cup of ice cubes, ½ a pomelo grapefruit, 1 medium sized cucumber, 1 medium sized apple.
Wash all the ingredients thoroughly. Peel the grapefruit and lime. Blend everything with the ice until smooth and serve.
Recommended: At least one glass with breakfast. Be aware that grapefruit is found to be incompatible with certain medications. Consult your doctor when necessary.
