Sharing Dr Bergs notes:
High blood glucose affects four main tissues, including:
1. The eyes
2. The arteries
3. The nervous system (including the brain)
4. The kidneysDamage to these tissues can lead to a myriad of health problems.
Glycation is a combination of sugar and protein in the body, and it can lead to this dysfunction of tissues. An A1C score is basically a number that represents glycated hemoglobin (a protein in red blood cells) to help tell how bad someone’s diabetes is.
Glycation can also occur when someone consumes a combination of sugar or carbs and protein or fat.
When glycation occurs, it can build up into advanced glycation end products (AGEs). With AGEs comes a lot of free radical damage, inflammation, and oxidative stress.
Vitamins that inhibit glycation:
1. Benfotiamine
2. Vitamin C
3. Vitamin D
4. Vitamin E (tocotrienols complex without tocopherols)
5. Vitamin B6Other natural glycation inhibitors:
• Alpha lipoic acid
• Green tea (EGCG)
• Aged garlic
• Bitter melon
• Quercetin
• Curcumin
• Fasting
• ExerciseThank you Dr Berg!
I take bitter melon every day mixed with a 1/2 a cucumber 1/2 of a celery stalk and 1/2 of a green apple and my sugar dropped from 125 to 90. It also helps with cholesterol levels. Glad to see bitter melon is on your list Thank you Dr Berg
