Health Tip) The beginning of blood sugar management starts with water #Yeoju Water
The beginning of blood sugar management starts with water!
Start managing with natural insulin herbal medicine~!
The lady with a staff that looks like a goblin's club is a famous plant for diabetes because it is said to help regulate blood sugar levels.
It looks similar to a cucumber, but its surface is very rough, and it is known as a natural insulin lump.
My mother is managing her blood sugar, and she buys bitter melon every year because it's good for blood sugar control, and she boils it in water to drink.
The biological state of the host is a bit difficult to store. It can turn yellow and ripen at room temperature or melt away.
So, it's better to cut the raw meat into pieces and store it in the refrigerator.
So my mother buys fresh bitter melon, dries it, and stores it, then boils it to make bitter melon tea whenever she needs it.
I went to my parents' house and helped my mom a bit, haha. That's how I ended up writing this helpful tip.
How to prevent Yeoju from drying out
Soak in a mixture of salt and vinegar diluted in water for about 5 minutes, then rinse.
2. Cut the zucchini in half. Then, you will have this zucchini seed.
3. Gently scrape out the seeds inside the persimmon with a teaspoon.
*There are toxins in the seed, so if ingested improperly, it can cause diarrhea and abdominal pain.
I stacked three Yeoju slices and cut them to 0.2mm thickness. The slicing was done by my mother's skill.
Spread it out evenly and thoroughly so it dries well in the sunlight.
6. This is the bitter melon dried in the sun for a day. The moisture has been completely removed, right? It would be good to dry it for one more day^^ Total of 2 days^^
Yeoju Benefits
It is a plant that helps lower blood sugar levels.
It contains something called p-insulin, which is very similar to actual insulin.
- The caratin component activates the pancreatic beta cells.
It has the effect of lowering blood sugar by stimulating insulin secretion.
The bitterness of yeoju, saponins and terpenoids, may help transfer glucose from the blood to cells.
Help muscles process and store glucose more effectively.
- Since it contains a lot of potassium, it helps with diuretic action.
It helps reduce swelling and aids in weight control, making it beneficial for dieting^^
It contains a substance called Momordicin, which lowers blood cholesterol levels and helps prevent high blood pressure.
It contains a high amount of beta-carotene, which also helps improve eye fatigue.
It's also good for those concerned about eye health issues such as dry eyes or vision decline.
- It also has excellent anticancer effects, boosting immunity and preventing allergies and infections.
It is said to prevent the proliferation of cancer cells and the formation of tumors.
How to boil water in Yeoju
This time, I had fresh yuzu and boiled water with it to try.
Originally, I used to boil dried loofah, but it's also good to steep dried loofah in warm water and drink it.
Dried bitter melon is also sold in the market, and there's a big price difference compared to buying fresh bitter melon directlyㅠㅠ
You can put dried bitter melon slices into about 3 liters of bottled water and boil for about 10 minutes.
Do you see a slight hint of light green?
The one on the left is just plain water, and the one on the right is yuzu water, haha.
It's very simple, isn't it? A way to enjoy Yeoju very comfortably, easily, and consistently ^^
Yeoju side effects
It is a very good ingredient for diabetes, but it also has side effects.
- It induces uterine contractions, so pregnant women should avoid consumption.
If you are taking medication for diabetes, your blood sugar may drop too low, which could be harmful.
Additionally, it can cause reactions with medications, so caution is needed.
Because it contains a lot of potassium, people with kidney problems should avoid it.
I sincerely wish for healthy every day^^
