There are natural foods and natural herbs that
will help you to maintain your blood sugar levels

Effective natural diabetes treatment.

It’s not just the foods you eat, it’s also the
percentage of the food groups. It’s eating in a way
that balances your blood sugar levels.

PROTEINS:

1. You only require 4-7 ounces(200 grams), each day.
2. Protein should not cover more than 25% of your
plate and should be lean.
3. When protein is added to a carbohydrate meal the
GI is reduced because it slows down absorption.
4. Spreading protein over your meals will help your
blood sugar levels.

MEAL TIMING:

1. Eat protein for breakfast every day … whole
omega-3 eggs or a protein shake.
2. Eat something every 4 hours to keep your insulin
and blood glucose levels normal.
3. Eat small protein snacks in the morning and
afternoon, eg. a small handful of almonds.
4. Finish eating at least 2-3 hours before retiring.
5. Eat snacks earlier in the day so you will not be
hungry.

MEAL COMPOSITION:

1. By combining adequate protein (25% of meal) and
carbohydrates from vegetables nuts, seeds and
fruit at every meal.
2. It is really important to avoid eating quickly
absorbed carbohydrates (fruit juices containing
sugar, beer, liquers), alone as they really raise
your blood sugar levels.

It is a way of eating that helps prevent and reverse Type
2 Diabetes by turning on the right gene messages.

Knowledge about which foods you should eat and food
combination, is really powerful when you have Type 2
Diabetes.
