The prevention of diabetes is one of the ongoing movement that has grown in popularity in society these past years. Diabetes is an illness that can endanger people's lives. If you want to reverse insulin resistance, then you better remember some food you can eat for that. Here are the food you should have to prevent diabetes.

First in the list is turmeric. This is one of the food items certainly effective in preventing diabetes from afflicting a person. In the turmeric, one can find the active compound curcumin. You can say that this is an ingredient that is more effective than prescription drugs when it comes to activating the glucose uptake of a person.

Ginger is another one of the items to have if you want to fight off the said illness. You have the option of eating it raw or using it as an ingredient for your dish. With the ginger, you can significantly lower your fasting blood glucose. You should take it for a period of time to gain the results you desire.

Cinnamon. As one of the most popular and oldest spices available in the market, you can say that cinnamon has been deemed valuable because of its medical and flavoring qualities. You can also find some good results out of this ingredient when you are fighting off the said disease. You just need to take an amount not more than one-half tsp per day.

Olive leaf extract. Not all people store olive leaf extract in their cupboard. However, this is a necessary food item that all diabetics must have. You should have this as one of the supplements you take after meal. When you do that, you can get positive results against the disease, one similar to what you would experience in common diabetic therapeutics like metformin.

It will also significant reduce your need to take insulin for the sake of sugar balance after meals when you add berries into your diet. There is a wide variety of berries you can have for this. You can have bilberries, chokeberries, strawberries, lingonberries, blackberries, and the likes. You can mix them together to get the best results against this illness.

Black seeds, otherwise known as Nigella sativa, can also help you with this task. You just need to have at least two grams of the black seed to get the results that you are looking for. One gram is not enough and three grams is too much so make sure to have the right dosage a day to get your best results.

Spirulina is another one that you should take advantage of when you are diabetic. In recent studies, having spirulina a day can increase your sensitivity to more than twice the usual effect of other options. The study used 19 grams of the spirulina. It is fine to take advantage of this ingredient.

Berberine should be included in the diet as well. You can find this just as effective as most of the prescribed diabetes drugs you can buy off the pharmacy. Berberine is the bitter compound that you will most likely found in the roots of plants like Oregon grape, goldenseal, and barberry. Its results can be comparable with metformin.
