Adopting a plant-based diet influences nutrient intake and body composition to improve the body's response to insulin.</p>\n<p>Herbal diets are high in fiber to help you feel fuller by consuming fewer calories. By absorbing fewer calories than you use, you lose weight. This effect is very important because a high level of body fat is related to insulin resistance.</p>\n<p>Herbal diets are also low in fat. By adopting an herbal diet, the proportion of good and bad fats in your diet changes for the better, which can improve insulin sensitivity. Together, these two effects can reduce drug dependence, as well as delay - even prevent - complications from diabetes.</p>\n<p><strong>Better weight management</strong></p>\n<p>Type 2 diabetes is closely related to weight. Studies show that nearly 80% of people with type 2 diabetes are overweight or obese. If you are overweight, you can better manage your diabetes by trying to reach your healthy weight. In addition, as herbal diets tend to contain fewer calories than those based on meat, you will be able to exercise better control of your weight.</p>\n<p><strong>An increased feeling of satiety</strong></p>\n<p>Herbal diets are an excellent source of swelling fiber. When these fibers enter the stomach, they begin to swell on contact with water, giving you a longer feeling of fullness and making you less likely to succumb to the urge to nibble. Diabetes is not an excuse to stop you from snacking, but it's important to remember that some snacks can raise blood sugar levels and complicate control of the disease. If you need to nibble, choose snacks that are high in fiber or protein, rather than sugar.</p>\n<p><strong>Reduced risk of heart disease</strong></p>\n<p>Type 2 diabetes increases the risk of suffering from heart disease. Herbal diets are generally low in saturated fat and cholesterol and may help reduce intake. In return, you will benefit from a drop in your blood pressure and your cholesterol level, which will protect you from future heart problems.</p>\n<p><strong>Cancer risk reduction</strong></p>\n<p>Type 2 diabetes increases the risk of developing a number of cancers, including breast and bowel cancer. Herbal diets protect against cancer by providing nutrients such as antioxidants and phytochemicals, the action of which helps reduce the risk of certain cancers. Indirectly, they also reduce the risk of cancer by helping to maintain a healthy weight.</p>\n<p><br></p>","appDepth":2,"appParentPermlink":"pk2pwcayq","appParentAuthor":"littymumma","musingAppId":"aU2p3C3a8N","musingAppVersion":"1.1","musingPostType":"answer"}" |
