"Three Appropriations" means-
Whole grains, such as naked oats, buckwheat, oat flour, corn flour and other staple foods rich in vitamin B, trace elements and dietary fiber, can reduce blood sugar and blood lipid if eaten for a long time;
Beans and bean products, bean foods are rich in protein, inorganic salts and vitamins, and soybean oil contains unsaturated fatty acids, which can reduce serum cholesterol and triglycerides;
Bitter gourd, onion, mushroom, grapefruit and pumpkin can all lower blood sugar, which is the most ideal food for diabetics. If you can take some propolis for a long time, the effect of lowering blood sugar and preventing complications will be better.
People with diabetes should also be alert to the "three inappropriateness" in their daily diet-not eating all kinds of sugar, candied fruit, canned fruit, soft drinks, fruit juice, jam, ice cream, sweet biscuits, sweet bread and sugar cakes. Because these foods have high sugar content, they are prone to high blood sugar;
It is not advisable to eat foods with high cholesterol and animal fat, such as animal brain, liver, heart, lung, waist, egg yolk, fat, butter, pig, cattle and sheep oil, etc. These foods are easy to raise blood lipids and easily cause atherosclerosis;
Drinking alcohol is not advisable. Alcohol can make blood sugar fluctuate. When drinking heavily on an empty stomach, severe hypoglycemia can occur, and drunkenness can often cover up the manifestations of hypoglycemia, which is difficult to find and very dangerous.
People with diabetes can't touch sweets, so they can take propolis for a long time, because propolis doesn't contain sugar, but it is a little astringent.
