Manage Type- 2 Diabetes with Amla Tea

Amla/ Amalaki (Indian Gooseberry) is bitter in taste. Most celebrated effect of Amla is its anti-diabetic property. Diabetics must include bitter foods in their diet. It helps to prevent a surge in blood sugar levels. Amla is also high in fiber. High fiber foods enable gradual release of sugar in the bloodstream. If the sugar is released at a slow pace, your blood sugar levels tend to stay stable for long. Studies say Amla is an effective remedy to prevent pancreatitis, which may hamper the activity of your insulin-secreting cells. Amla is rich in chromium, a mineral which is helpful in regulating your carbohydrates metabolism and make the body more responsive to insulin.
Being a rich source of vitamin C also makes it an ideal diabetic-friendly fruit. A study, published in the Archives of Internal Medicine, suggested that there is a significant link between vitamin C levels and diabetes. You can eat amla raw and fresh with a sprinkle of rock salt, or you can use it to brew a diabetic-friendly tea.

How To Make Amla Tea For Diabetes:

1. In a steel container, take one and a half cups of water.
2. Add a teaspoon of coarse dried amla powder and a half a teaspoon of freshly crushed ginger.
3. Let it simmer for 10 minutes on medium flame.
4. Strain and drink.

Drink this tea twice every day and see the impact yourself!
