HAPPY MEAL

BEELZEBUB.

+ warnings: dark themes, erotic hues, strong language (added are 2 cups of low-carb fluff + 1 tbsp. of light, ‘diet’ angst)
+ female mc, feminine pronouns.
Tumblr media
At the time, it sort of didn’t feel lonely anymore, that atrociously endless thing. Existence.
Damn, though, the girl didn’t know how to handle a knife or spoon properly; she wouldn’t manage to prepare something edible even if to save her own ass. Then again, neither could he, probably.
Who cares if the stuff he makes tastes great? The ‘aftertaste’ of its repercussions is nothing short of unpleasant. Fucking blasphemous, actually—for each and every bite brings about a bountiful harvest of unwelcome side effects. Like a new medication manufactured to treat not even one ailment would do.
Did he perhaps spike everything? Just how many of them did he put in there exactly, the drugs?
Yet, absurd as her dealings with recipes were, he thought she was cute as fuck. She was so adorable and so corrupt. The perfect, most harmonious mixture.
Of course, as gluttony in the flesh and an insatiable patron of cuisine—with the foods, creatures and all—he ought to have found that inability of hers offensive, but it’s never too late to learn something new until it’s too late, isn’t it?
With her, that ‘what in “Hell” is a kitchen?’ mode had its charms. She was still young, too, and she satisfied him in other ways. Dreamy, dirty ways.
For once, however, the time they spent together was, well, normal.
Normal enough, that is.
He never did deny that he couldn’t keep his hands off of her even in the kitchen, did he? And he never did say that his hands didn’t go where they weren’t supposed to ‘just yet’ over and over and over and over again, right?
Whatever.
Old habits die hard.
They do, but he also soon remembered something: a little big wish he had put away in his hungry heart, then felt boiling over in his wandering brain every now and then.
He had always wished for a few hours of time. Being buried in a blanket of peace, painted with sunshine...that felt like it would be so nice.
Would she understand that when she had more fun, base things in mind?
Maybe he should once again put that wish away, postpone it to yet another other day. If old habits die hard, then how could birth traits themselves possibly melt off, or so much as sway?
Wasn’t he, after all, the king of gluttony?
He was voracious.
And before him was a pretty woman.
Together they were making a meal so unsatisfactory.
What’s the point of resisting these thoughts, fighting who he is, denying himself what he wants?
Fuck that.
Better just indulge, indulge, indulge, get so drunk on sin until it sloshes under his heated skin.
Everyone has their strong points; supposedly, it’s something known worldwide—like how between the sheets she drove him crazy, but in the kitchen she was merely a confused lady. Tragically clueless. Heartbreakingly unknowledgeable. Lost like a cat with no whiskers.
That is why she watched him do almost everything.
He liked how her glittering eyes were glued to him, like ants pressing needy kisses to a sugar cube.
He loved that she was thinking about sinful things—because of him, no less—so shamelessly.
Oily colours and powdery spices smeared his apron, but did she truly see them at all? No, she didn’t. And even if she did, would she have given a shit? No, she wouldn’t.
Because her eyes were on him.
He could have been stirring the soup and she would have been sucking in the hard contours of his bronze arm and the way his glistening muscles distorted those black tattoos.
In her freaky mind, musings about her tongue pressing against any part of his body were wildly spinning. How pretty the sparkle of her saliva on his body would be!
To her, the taste of his silky skin would bring her pleasure greater than that of an angel at thoughts of God and slaughter.
He was mouth-watering; all at once salt, acid and sugar.
Such was the truth—so much so that as he rummaged through the pantry, he almost heard her thinking, ‘kiss, lick, fuck.’
She was so dizzy with that vicious hunger chewing on her intestines and nibbling on her heart. She was so dizzy with it that thoughts of him nearly distracted her from a particular slice of mischief.
You see, he had in mind quite the...exotic ingredients. Said he wanted to see how they’d mix together and with food itself. Told her desire would ‘milk’ most of them out of her.
She thought it was awfully strange and disgustingly sexy, but why not do it another time? Wasn’t a lot of fun awaiting their tingling bodies after all this mess, anyway?
They both of them didn’t sit at the table for dinner. Why do that when they could eat straight from the scalding pot, their legs dangling down the cool counter?
His feet nearly touched the floor. She, on the other hand, was a much shorter, much smaller, much more breakable precious thing.
He was...happy.
It was sweet, having someone to eat with. Even if that wasn’t a big, proper meal.
She was an eccentric human who could only take so much, but he was rubbing off on her.
How else could one explain why the food merely filled a tiny hole in her stomach?
How else could one make sense of the way guts were aching for something else?
She was still starving.
He could taste it pouring out of her pores, the gluttony. It was hot, raging and uncontrollable. It was an irresistible, delicious kind of heat.
He was still happy.
Seasons change, and so do reasons.
He was so happy his stomach wouldn’t have been able to digest anything else for a while.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is a lie.
That, ladies and gentlemen, is what some cliché, half-assed romance novel would have said.
This is the dark world.
The truth is otherwise.
He is the devil king of gluttony.
He liked her company.
But how could a small pot licked clean with a certain special someone have ever made his appetite shut the fuck up for a minute or two?
Think again, will you?

What Hypoglycemia looks/feels like, from someone who has it (for writers/artists who wish to include the topic of Hypo in their SGA (or other) art/stories)
Summery:
I'm making this post as a resource for fellow writers in the SGA fandom (and others in general) because I've come across one too many fanfics which explore Rodney's hypoglycemia but do so in a... let's just say less than realistic fashion. Now I have nothing against these stories, they're still fun! and cool!, and it's not the writer's fault most of the time that info on what Hypo is like can be quite misleading online, but I wanted to make this quick resource for anyone in the SGA fandom, writers/artists in general or just curious people who want an overview of what hypo looks like (to an outsider), feels like (to the person suffering it) and what the signs/symptoms are + how to treat it!
First off, let's dispel some myths!
"Only people with diabetes/pre-diabetes get hypoglycemic" False. Hypoglycemia can occur in anyone and there are various causes. Let's get rid of the fancy words for a second and remember that hypoglycemia just means low blood sugar. If anyone avoids eating sugars & carbs long enough, their blood sugar will drop dangerously low and they will become hypoglycemic. However, people who *have* hypoglycemia typically mean they have a condition which causes their blood sugar to drop dangerously low more often than most or despite a healthy diet. People with diabetes are at risk of hypoglycemic attacks if they take too much insulin for example, but diabetes is not a requirement for the condition and many (like myself, and presumably McKay) are not diabetic.
"You have to go without food for a long time to get a hypoglycemic attack" False. When considering non-diabetic hypoglycemia (which is what I'll mainly be covering because it's what I have) there are 2 variations of conditions which cause hypoglycemic attacks. The first, and the one from which the above presumption is created, is called "fasting hypoglycemia". In this condition, your body constantly produces slightly too much insulin which will gradually drop your blood sugar levels (but faster than what is considered "normal" for a non hypoglycemic person). People with this version of the condition will typically start experiencing symptoms 8-12 hours since they last consumed sugar/carbs, and the symptoms will show & progress more slowly compared to the second condition variation (you might feel light headed, then an hour later a bit sick, then another hour later more sick etc etc). The second variation is called "reactive hypoglycemia", in which your body normally produces the correct amount of insulin (thus fasting is not a major risk as with the 1st variation), but your body does produce substantially too much insulin specifically in response to a large influx of sugar in your system. People with this version will experience symptoms only 2-4 hours after an influx of sugar/carbs (sugars tend to trigger attacks faster, carbs tend to trigger slower), and due to the sudden nature of the insulin spike, symptoms can appear and worsen rapidly (it can take as little as 5 minutes to go from "I'm a bit dizzy" to "get me a bucket or I'll spew on you"). NOTE: of course, each person's condition will differ and how they present/progress will differ too.
"Hypoglycemia isn't a serious condition" Ok I have to include this because it's just plain wrong. Hypoglycemia is often not severe if caught early, and the fact that the cure is literally just consuming sugar (eg. drink some juice) it can come across as no big deal or even silly, but make no mistake, hypoglycemia can and does kill. Without sugar your brain will eventually shut down and you will die. Don't make fun of me, just give me my juice, thanks.
OK, now that that's out of the way, on to the meat of this post!
What does Hypoglycemia look like to onlookers, and what does it feel like to experience it?
Depending on the type of hypoglycemia someone has, the presentation of their symptoms will vary. They can either have a slow or rapid onset, and remember that not everyone will show the exact same symptoms. The nature and severity of the symptoms will also depend on the stage of the hypoglycemic attack. While this isn't official, I personally categorize my hypoglycemic attack into 3-4 stages, and they appear as follows below. Each stage can last either mere minutes (5/10/20 minutes) or hours depending on the nature (fasting/reactive) and progression (rapid/slow) of the attack. Note, I'm getting my "onlooker" data from my amazing partner, who has to deal with my sorry ass, and my experience data is of course mostly from my experience, though I try to include other possible/common experiences too, but keep that in mind your experience may differ <3
Stage 1: Mild
This is the first stage of a hypoglycemic attack and will have the least severe symptoms. For many the symptoms might be so subtle that they go unnoticed, possibly up until the next stage of the condition, especially if your condition advances rapidly. A person in stage 1 will 100% still be able to eat/drink foods/drinks with sugars in them by themselves and will not need a glucose drip yet, just give them some juice. The symptoms: In this stage you typically start with the emotive/mental symptoms, described as "feelings of unease" etc. You might also experience mild physical symptoms such as feeling peckish or being a bit jittery, but not much so. How it feels: You might feel jumpy, anxious, annoyed, irritable, and have a general sense of being on edge. For some this expresses as anger, for others fear, and it's not always the same each time. You might feel a little bit hungry and your mind might be a bit more scattered than normal, but generally you'll feel fine if a bit uncomfortable. How it looks: Due to the mild nature of the symptoms in stage 1, it's very possible that onlookers will totally miss any sign/symptom in this stage. Your best bet is noticing that the person is more irritable or jumpy than normal, but otherwise it's likely to go overlooked until stage 2 hits.
Stage 2: Moderate
This is the 2nd stage of a hypoglycemic attack and is typically the stage where both the person suffering from the attack and onlookers are most likely to first notice the symptoms and piece together that a hypo attack is occurring. The symptoms in this stage is slightly more severe and physical symptoms start to present more prominently (allowing onlookers to notice what is happening). A person in stage 2 will likely still be able to eat/drink foods/drinks with sugars in them by themselves and will not need a glucose drip yet, just give them some juice. The symptoms: At this stage physical symptoms become more prominent. Most sufferers will have constant tremors in their limbs, making it difficult to do fine work as their hands will become clumsy and shaky. Their breathing might also be shaky/uneasy as a result. Rapid heart rate and what is known as "hot flashes" (sudden spike in body temperature, causing the face to become warm, flushed, and the skin to become clammy) will likely occur. This stage also typically features feelings of fatigue, moderate to severe nausea, disorientation/confusion and weakness. How it feels: Absolutely fucking terrible. Stage 2 is the worst feeling of the 4 as you are typically still lucid enough to know how shit you feel while feeling worse than in stage 1. You will feel hot, feverish, and the feeling of hunger will typically be replaced by being sick to your stomach. You will likely throw up. Your brain will start to go foggy and it will be hard to concentrate/work. You will feel tired, but too uncomfortable to fall asleep. You will likely feel uncomfortably hot and sweaty. Your hands will be shaking too badly for you to do much (drinking water becomes hard because liquid gets shaken out of glass) and your arms/legs will start to feel heavy. If you're not sitting already, you will want to sit down soon because legs no work. How it looks: The person might be flushed with a sheen of sweat on their forehead, clammy shaky hands, wobbly legs. They might also turn pale. They will look tired. They likely won't be able to hold a conversation, coming across as confused and disorientated. They will likely throw up. Imagine someone with a bad flu but they're also drunk, and that's pretty much what it will look like.
Stage 3: Severe
The third stage of Hypo, at this point the symptoms may become alarming and the person may not be able to consume foods/drinks themselves anymore and thus may need a glucose drip.
The symptoms: At this stage the person will likely become fully disorientated and incapacitated. They may be unable to walk/stand themselves and thus might need help moving around. If they haven't thrown up yet they probably will. They will likely be unable to focus. Their vision may become blurred or they may pass out. Slurred speech, loss of consciousness and severe confusion is likely. Mobility will be greatly limited. How it feels: Surprisingly not nearly as bad as stage 2, considering you're out of it for most of the time. You might feel sleepy, uncomfortable, vaguely aware that you feel sick, but at this stage you will likely be so out of it that you'll be drifting in and out of consciousness for the most part. Things might feel vaguely off and you will have gaps in your awareness. You probably won't want to move much if at all and just sit/lay wherever you are and hope to pass out (because being passed out feels better than being cold and hot and clammy and shaky and btw you're tired and hungry and sleep sounds good right now) How it looks: Fucking terrifying. The person will at this stage lose a lot of awareness and very likely start passing out/drifting off. They will likely stop responding, their speech will almost definitely be slurred and/or incoherent. They might still throw up/move but not with much will of their own. If you haven't gotten them medical attention yet at this point, do so, because they probably won't be able to drink juice themselves to get better.
Stage 4: Worst case scenario
This stage I have not experienced myself (thank the gods) and is reserved for some of the severe complications which can/will occur if someone isn't treated during stage 3. Namely: Seizure, coma, death. The person will NOT be able to consume sugar themselves at this point and will need medical intervention (if applicable), though ideally you want to get treated BEFORE then. There isn't really much to say on this stage because it's pretty much as labeled. Get them treatment or they will pass out and eventually (if still untreated) die.
So for all y'all wump writers out there, make sure to get McKay to Carson/Keller before then ;)
But anyway, I hope this can give some useful insight to people on what Hypo actually looks/feels like, and hopefully well have less stories where the symptoms and progression are all jumbled out of order and/or myths about how/when/why hypo presents will be reduced.
Take care and remember to carry an emergency juice box ;)

blood sugar and carbs
actual info about blood sugar from a type 1 diabetic, because there are so many empty claims everywhere:
carbs (carbohydrates) are sugar, and raise your blood sugar. carbs are basically anything with obvious sugar, as well as grains, milk, fruit, etc.
cheese, eggs, fish, meat etc, and MOST VEGETABLES (think tomato, cucumber, broccoli) have little to no carbs unless you eat a very large amount.
exercise/walking will usually lower your blood sugar.
unless you're diabetic, your body will release insulin to lower your blood sugar after you eat, and keep it stable throughout the day. not eating enough carbs for a long time (e.g. when fasting or restricting) or heavy cardio/exercise will likely result in low blood sugar.
when you have low blood sugar, you'll feel some of the following: dizzy, sweaty/hot, tired, frustrated, shaky, unable to concentrate.
to raise your blood sugar you need sugar. easiest fix is a spoonful of honey, or some juice. to keep it stable for longer, go for rye bread. you may feel like eating a horse, but it really doesn't take too much to fix it, just wait 10 min and you should feel better.
if your blood sugar gets too low, you can faint. (if someone else faints of low blood sugar, you're supposed to put honey in their mouth because it will be absorbed through the mucus even when unconsious.) remember that there are many reasons you can faint when restricting, this is just one of them.
NO FOOD LOWERS YOUR BLOOD SUGAR. foods do not have negative carbs. usually when people say this, they probably refer to foods such as rye bread, that have a lot of fibre and therefore are ingested more slowly. this keeps your blood sugar more stable than eating the same amount of carbs inthe form of juice for example. eating fiber alongside other "faster" carbs can help your blood sugar not to spike, but carbs are carbs and will always raise your blood sugar in some amount.
here are some sources for more information:

4 Steps to Lose 20 Pounds in 6 Weeks
Tumblr media
1. Find a workout that’s doable and one that you enjoy.
Some people like lifting heavy weights, some like running, and others like fitness classes such as yoga or zumba. The first step is to find the exercise that works for you. Try different kinds of workouts and test which one you enjoy the most. We have workout plans to introduce you to different styles of training, including running, yoga, Crossfit, and Tabata.
Once you find an exercise you enjoy, your job is to make it a habit to go to the gym. The challenge this week is to exercise 5-6 days of the week for at least 45 minutes. You decide where, when, and what to do, but you must work out.
Step one should last for one to two weeks, but you should continue to work out 5-6 days per week for the duration of the six-week period. During these first weeks, exercise should be your priority. Reducing your calorie intake when you’re starting a new exercise regime can put undue stress on the body. For now, focus on adding exercise without worrying about your diet. Try to keep your caloric intake about the same.
Recommended Time Frame: 1-2 weeks
2. Cut back on added sugars and fried food.
Nutrition is complicated. There are macronutrients (fats, carbs, and protein) and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals). You need to consider your fiber intake, how much sugar you eat, if the sugar you’re eating has a low or high glycemic index – let’s just say it’s overwhelming. But don’t worry. You don’t need to understand all of these nutrition concepts to begin a healthy diet. For step two, we’ll keep things simple. Your job is to cut back on the amount of added sugar and fried food you consume. This doesn’t mean that you should eliminate it from your diet altogether. Instead, try eating a little bit less each day. Stock stevia to sweeten your food. Whenever possible, replace white sugar with natural sweeteners like honey. Good ways of cutting back on sugar include:
1. Replace cereals with stevia-sweetened oatmeal. 2. Reduce the amount of soda you consume. If you drink a bottle every day, limit sodas to every other day. If you only order it at restaurants, ask for sparkling water instead. 3. If you buy almond or soy milk, try the unsweetened version. It’s an easy way to cut 100 calories from your day. 4. Choose fresh fruit over dried fruit. 5. Choose a light salad dressing or make your own.
6. Limit desserts to once a week. If you crave something sweet at other times, have fresh fruit. 7. If you’re craving a rich dessert such as ice cream, evade the craving by drinking a tall glass of milk. You can also eat some stevia-sweetened Greek yogurt or a creamy smoothie.
For step 2, you should also reduce fried food. This includes fried chicken, french fries, and potato chips. The good news is that you can get all of these foods baked instead of fried. Baking your food will save you hundreds of calories and will help you avoid trans fats that are linked to weight gain and cardiac disease.
Recommended Time Frame: 2-3 weeks.
3. Step up your clean-eating lifestyle.
After 2 to 3 weeks of cutting back on added sugars and fried food, work on cleaning up the rest of your diet. Learn how many calories you should be eating and divide them between meals and snacks. Remember that perfection is not necessary for progress.
You can lose weight while allowing yourself an occasional treat. Schedule a cheat meal that allows you to eat your favorite foods once a week or once every two weeks. Use the following guidelines for the rest of your meals:
1. Start your mornings with fiber and protein. Meal ideas include vegetable omelets made with egg whites, oatmeal sweetened with stevia, or yogurt topped with nuts, seeds, and fresh berries. 2. Keep your stomach full by eating large servings of vegetables at every lunch and dinner. The fiber in the vegetables will keep you full longer. 3. Have lean protein every day. This includes chicken breast, turkey, soy, and fat-free plain Greek yogurt.
Recommended Time Frame: 2 weeks.
4. Form habits.
The final step is the hardest, but if you’ve committed to the first three steps, the fourth should be a breeze. To wrap up our 4-step program, we challenge you to create healthy habits all around. It’s easy to make it to the gym every day when it’s part of your routine. Resisting junk food gets easier the more you do it. Once a healthy lifestyle becomes a habit, you’ll find you maintain it easily. You’ll continue to slim down and grow stronger.

Hi, I saw your comment on that you quit sugar and processed carbs for a few years now. Can you give some tips? I live with my parents and they buy unhealthy things and refuse to stop buying it (which makes it difficult for me not to eat it). I relapse every week 2-3 times. Do you btw also take supplements? I also can't eat fruit, dates, honey or nuts because otherwise I relapse (i dont know why)
Hi there! 👋🏼 Thanks for your question.
First, let me start off by saying that I don't think that the low-carb lifestyle is for everyone. I currently believe there people who have different needs but this does work well for me.
I initially stopped eating carbs on the advice of my doctor who thought that limiting carbs might help me control inflammation. I had been seriously overweight most of my life and struggled with overeating and almost constant food cravings.
Within 3 days my inflammation had dramatically improved, my nearly constant pain was gone and I didn't have any cravings. What was originally going to be a short-term solution became my way of life. I lost more than 100 pounds in a year without any exercise. I did move more, by way of walking or dancing, but only because I felt great and wanted to do something with my new found energy.
I track everything in MFP and try to keep carbs below 50g. I don't eat sugar, honey, bread, rice, potatoes, pasta, etc. Primarily I have proteins, veggies, nuts and cheeses. I will allow myself a cup of fruit (usually berries that are low in sugar high on fiber) if I do want dessert. I have also experimented with many protein drinks because I don't always feel like cooking but don't want to have to choke down something nasty. I have a few I love and they also serve as sweet treats when I'm in the mood.
For me, I stopped thinking of sugar/carbs as a choice. They do not work for me and cause my health to decline. I try to always make sure I have something I can eat handy (all my bags and coat pockets have bags of nuts handy, tuna, maybe some jerky) but if I don't, then I just skip a meal until I can get something. I'd no more eat sugar than I would another toxin at this point. Again, that's because my body does not react well to it. It causes me to behave in ways I do not like. Abstaining completely let's me focus on other things.
I am an adult who does her own grocery shopping so that helps me make sure I have the nutritious foods that I like to eat on hand. I have regular staples I eat often and that make me happy. Every week I go through eggs, chicken breast, salmon, ground beef, extra sharp cheddar, tuna, bags of Caesar salad & spinach, and extra chunky bleu cheese dressing. Eating out often entaiils omelets, burgers without a bun and side salad, steak, shrimp scampi... On occasion, I even have pizza and just peel off the crust and toss it.
You may need to experiment to find the foods that appeal to your tastes. I eat these foods because I think they are delicious. I don't feel deprived; I feel liberated. After 50 years of struggle, I found what is right for me.
I do take a multi vitamin (when I remember) and pop a Vitamin C if I feel it may be warranted. That and the aforementioned protein drinks are it for supplements. I am still energetic almost five years since starting and was able to quit some medication I had previously been prescribed so my body seems to agree.
I hope you can find a plan that works as well for you. I know all too well what a struggle it can be.
Good luck and good health!

Vegetables for Diabetes: Tasty Options to Control Blood Sugar
Having diabetes is very tedious. You have to control what you eat and get ample exercise. Diabetic or not, it is important to eat fruit and vegetables every day for a balanced diet. Here is how you can change your attitude toward food by delving into the wonderful possibilities of vegetables regarding diabetes. Buy fresh vegetables online. vegetables and fruits that are low in sugar and rich in fiber and complex carbs are the go-to food choices for diabetics. In simple words, let's explore some fruits and vegetables that will balance out your blood sugar.
Tumblr media
Let's talk about fruits that are awesome for diabetics.
Blueberries
Blueberries are a superfood for diabetics. These tiny, tangy fruits contain vitamins, essential minerals, and many antioxidants. Not only does it promote overall health, but it also gets rid of free radicals. For long-term diabetics, eating a bowl of purple salad containing blueberries, purple cabbage, and feta cheese will help increase insulin sensitivity and glucose processing. Blueberries, strawberries, or other berries, are a diabetic’s best friend.
Peaches
Peaches define the summer season. They are a super healthy addition to your daily diet, low in calories, and a wonderful source of fiber, potassium, and vitamins A and C. It is the perfect fruity treat for diabetics to satisfy sweet tooth cravings. If you never find it in your fridge, then get fresh vegetable delivery. Peach smoothies or salads, it's up to you!
Oranges
When you think about an orange, you think of vitamin C and citrus, but it’s more than that! Citrus fruits like grapefruit, lemons, limes, and oranges also contain vitamin A and iron. The nutrients in them reduce inflammation and the possibility of cell damage, and they also protect the heart. Folate and potassium help in controlling diabetes. Remember, to get the best benefits out of oranges or any fruits, it’s better to eat them whole rather than drink the juice.
Kiwi
Kiwi is a great choice for diabetics. Not only is it delicious, but it’s also rich in antioxidants. With the focus being on improving immunity these days, it is also a great way to keep your immune system healthy. This is due to the presence of free radicals that destroy any toxins present in the body. Difficult to find in regular shops, check for fresh vegetables online in Bangalore. Kiwi keeps heart health at its best.
Let’s Talk About Vegetables That Are Awesome for Diabetics:
Broccoli
Let’s start by discussing one of the planet's healthiest vegetables. Broccoli is a superfood for people with diabetes. A wholesome meal is incomplete without greens. Packed with antioxidants, folate, and a host of other vitamins and nutrients, they are beneficial for not just diabetics but for everyone!
Cabbage
Obesity is one of the primary causes of diabetes. Filling up on veggies is a great way to manage diabetes and promote weight loss. Soluble fiber is one of the several nutrients found in cabbage. It contributes to regulating blood sugar. The next time you’re having lunch, try out a cabbage salad with the lean protein of your choice and stay full until dinner! Want a fresh batch? Buy fresh vegetables online.
Kale
Kale is the queen of greens. They’re packed with vitamin C, fiber, antioxidants, and a range of nutrients. People with irregular blood sugar should eat foods high in vitamin C due to their capacity to cure inflammation, which is another one of the major causes of diabetes. The green, crinkly leaves of kale have a bitter taste. Adding them to your salad or smoothie will protect your heart and detoxify the body.
Carrot
Did you know diabetics shouldn’t eat carrots? This is a misconception. Steering clear of starchy, calorie-dense vegetables is key to a diabetic-friendly meal. Carrot is a non-starchy, nutritious vegetable that ranks low in the glycemic index. Carotene prevents diabetes from getting worse, while healthy carbs and vitamins protect your eyes and heart. Swap your normal snacks with baby carrots and keep your blood sugar stable.
Cauliflower
They fall under cruciferous veggies, just like their cousin broccoli and cabbage. With the world shifting towards healthier alternatives, along with being an amazing kidney-friendly vegetable, cauliflower is extremely low on carbs. Brimming with nutrients like folate, potassium, and vitamins, enjoying a cauliflower lentil curry or any other cauliflower dish ensures a much more stable blood glucose level.
Eat what makes you healthy!
Diabetes is a serious condition that requires lifestyle changes. Buying vegetables online in Bangalore to eat right and exercise regularly will help. If diabetes is left untreated, it can cause serious heart problems and other complications that worsen the situation. So it is always better to eat fruits and vegetables that will keep you healthy!

Unlocking the Power of Natural Treatments for Diabetes
Introduction
Diabetes affects millions of people worldwide, and while conventional medications play a crucial role in treating diabetes, using natural solutions remains essential. In this article, we delve into evidence-based strategies for managing diabetes naturally and cover some of the most common natural treatments used to lower blood sugar.
Tumblr media
Meanwhile, you can click on natural treatments for diabetes to find a detailed list of all the natural solutions used to treat and prevent diabetes, and reduce blood sugar. These include various natural therapies, diet programs, alternative medicine, vitamins, supplements, herbal medicine, and home remedies. You can also go to www.aposbook.com to find all the natural treatments for any medical condition IN ONE CLICK.
1. Low carbs diets and diabetes
When we eat carbs, the liver transforms these carbs into glucose. The stomach and small intestines will then absorb the glucose and then release it into the bloodstream. Following a high carbs diet can result in higher glucose levels in the bloodstream, which increases the risks of diabetes.
Following a low carbs diet is very important for people who have risks of developing diabetes type 2, especially if they have insulin resistance.
2. Folic Acid and Diabetes
The Role of Folate (Vitamin B9)
Folate deficiency has been linked to an increased risk of type 2 diabetes. Here’s how it impacts diabetes:
Immune Response: Folate deficiency affects natural killer cells, by impairing their function, which leaves people more vulnerable to diabetes. This is because these cells can defend the body against infections and strengthen our immune system.
Cellular Metabolism: Folate is vital for cellular metabolism. Insufficient levels of folate may disrupt metabolic reactions, leading to insulin resistance and an elevated risk of type 2 diabetes.
2. The Role of Probiotics in Managing Diabetes
Probiotics, those friendly bacteria found in yogurt and other fermented foods, have gained attention for their potential impact on health. One area of interest is their role in managing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Let’s explore how probiotics influence gut microbiota and contribute to better diabetes management.
Gut Microbiota and T2DM:
The gut microbiota, comprising trillions of microbes in our gastrointestinal tract, play a crucial role in human metabolism.
Altered glucose homeostasis is associated with changes in gut microbiota composition.
These alterations are closely linked to the development of T2DM and its complications.
Conclusion
Explore AposBook’s comprehensive database of natural remedies for diabetes. From diet programs to herbal medicine, we’ve got it all. Remember to share your experiences and contribute to our knowledge exchange.
Note : Always consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new diet or any natural treatment.

AmiClear Official Website - Its Highlights and Detailed Overview!!
Product Name — AmiClear 
Category — Blood sugar support formula
Official Site — Click Here
Tumblr media
AmiClear Reviews With today's technological advancements, not only are people pushing toward a cure for diabetes, but information on how those inflicted with the disease can control it, is readily available via places like the internet. Don't take these types of articles for granted. Use the tips provided here to your advantage.
Apples are so good for you if you're diabetic! They give you something sweet to beat a sugar craving, and they're high in fiber, which will help you keep your weight down. They don't provide a large blood sugar spike after eating, so they can give you a ton of energy without causing you any health problems.
AmiClear Diabetics need to avoid ketchup like the plague. I know it's tasty, I love it to death, but it's so full of sugar both from the tomatoes and the high fructose corn syrup that it's more of a curse than a pleasure. I like to replace it with yellow mustard as it has little to no sugar added.
Your insurance may cover a trip to the nutritionist once you're diagnosed with diabetes, so take advantage of it! Bring a list of your favorite foods with you and ask if there is any way for you to make them healthy AND tasty, meaning you can have a treat without any of the guilt.
AmiClear User Feedback Many different foods have this ingredient, including sodas, condiments, and most sweets. Read the labels carefully to avoid foods that contain it. The label in Canada is "glucose/fructose".
If you have recently found out that you have diabetes, you may want to see a nutritionist. There are certain foods that a diabetic should and should not be eating. A nutritionist can give you a diet plan to follow and tell you where you can purchase these special foods.
One of the most important tips for anyone with diabetes to remember is to eat healthy foods. Eating healthy foods that are low in fat and sugar keeps your blood sugar levels in check. In addition to this, it also keeps your body healthy, in shape, and at a normal weight.
AmiClear Ingredients Following the USDA Food Guide Pyramid will help you to live healthier with diabetes. The food guide pyramid was developed as a guide for healthy eating for everyone. It works for people with diabetes, too. The shape of the pyramid tells you how much to eat of different foods.
Try to avoid soda and other sugary drinks of you have diabetes. There are no health benefits from drinking these drinks and can in fact, cause your sugar levels to go higher. If you are going to drink juice, try to stick to ones that have no sugar in them.
AmiClear Side Effects If you have been diagnosed as a diabetic it would behoove you to get a medical bracelet indicating as such. You never want to end up in a situation where you are unresponsive, and god forbid, those caring for you don't know you are diabetic and do something, like give you a dextrose IV that can make you even worse.
Here is a tip that benefits not only someone with diabetes, but anyone else. Regular exercise is important to maintain a healthy body weight, as exercise burns off excess body fat. Aerobic exercises such as jogging and cycling are good for increasing the heart rate to burn off fat.
AmiClear Official Website If you're Diabetic, make sure you're pairing your carbohydrates with a protein. This will help you digest the carbs in a more efficient way, leading to a lower blood-glucose spike once you're done. For example, pair an apple with some cheddar cheese for a tasty snack that shouldn't put you over the edge.
Smoking is a dangerous habit, but it can be extremely dangerous for a diabetic. Continuing to smoke if you have diabetes will increase your risk for many different health problems. Smoking makes you insulin-resistant, and if you're not a diabetic, you could be at risk for type 2 diabetes.
Tumblr media
AmiClear Blood Sugar Drops Watch out for foods that contain large amounts of saturated fat because it can add extra pounds that you do not need. If you gain lots of weight while trying to battle diabetes you will be faced with many problems. It is a good idea to try to lose weight since that will help keep your sugar levels at a healthy number.
If you have diabetes, a great tip is to make sure you get a proper amount of sleep. If your amount of sleep is poor, it can mess with your hormones and lead to an increased appetite and elevated blood sugar. Research has shown that just one night of poor sleep can increase your insulin sensitivity by up to 25 percent. So make sure you get some sleep.
AmiClear Customer Complaints When you are a diabetic you should make sure you are eating as many whole foods as possible. When shopping you should always buy fresh fruits and vegetables and avoid buying too many processed foods that contain ingredients that are bad for your condition. Avoid getting any foods with too much sugar such as sweets or soda.
Adding additional fiber to your diet may help to control your diabetes. Several scientific studies have shown that fiber has a positive effect on blood sugar levels. Eating fiber can also help you to feel full and thus, lose weight. Healthy weight levels are known to be associated with positive blood sugar levels as well.
AmiClear Drops When you have diabetes, you need to make sure that you are getting enough rest each night. If you fail to get enough sleep, not only will your body crave sugar and energy, but it will lead to overeating, low blood-sugar levels and even irritability that could have been avoided in the first place.
Articles full of tips like the one you've just read are your most powerful tool. Insulin can help you regulate your blood glucose levels, but proper information on how to change your lifestyle, can ensure that diabetes remains a minor annoyance and not a life-threatening disease. Use this information to guide you.

Kevin James' Weight Loss Journey
Kevin James has reportedly struggled with his weight for many years. For his role in "Mall Cop," he weighed roughly around 300lbs. After filming, he made efforts throughout his career to lose weight but unfortunately would pick it back up again. However, when filming a popular sitcom, Kevin James decided to get serious about his weight loss. He hired an MMA trainer who treated him not like a celebrity but like any other fighter, and he also changed over to a strict low-carb diet.
Kevin James' Low-Carb Diet
During Kevin James' weight loss journey, he followed a strict low-carb diet. This diet involves reducing the intake of carbohydrates and increasing the intake of protein and healthy fats. The idea behind this diet is that by reducing the intake of carbohydrates, the body will burn stored fat for energy instead of glucose. This can lead to weight loss.
Tumblr media
Kevin James' Exercise Routine
In addition to his low-carb diet, Kevin James subjected himself to a rigorous training program that included running, sit-ups, push-ups, pad work, shadowboxing, full-body exercises, mixed kicks, and medicine ball movements. This exercise routine helped him burn calories and build muscle, which can also aid in weight loss.
Can These Weight Loss Methods Work for Me?
Yes, Kevin James' weight loss methods can work for others. However, it is important to note that everyone's body is different, and what works for one person may not work for another. It is always best to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new diet or exercise routine. Additionally, it is important to remember that a healthy lifestyle is not a one-size-fits-all approach. If one method does not work, there are always other options to try.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Kevin James' weight loss journey involved a strict low-carb diet and a rigorous exercise routine. These methods can work for others, but it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new diet or exercise routine. Remember, a healthy lifestyle is not a one-size-fits-all approach, and there are always other options to try if one method does not work.

Debunking Common Myths Surrounding the Keto Diet
Tumblr media
Debunking Common Myths Surrounding the Keto Diet Introduction The ketogenic diet, commonly known as the keto diet, has gained significant traction in the past few years, thanks to its promising results in aiding weight loss. However, together with its popularity, a slew of myths have arisen, muddying the waters of understanding surrounding the true nature of this diet. This article will explore some of these common myths and seek to provide factual clarification. Myth 1: Keto Diet Is Just Another Fad Diet One common misconception is that the keto diet is another fleeting health trend. Contrary to this myth, the keto diet has a solid scientific foundation and has been in use since the 1920s to treat epilepsy in children. The diet’s weight loss efficiency results from a metabolic state called ketosis, wherein the body burns fat for energy. Myth 2: Keto Diet Means High-Protein Intake A common fallacy related to the keto diet is its conflation with a high-protein diet. However, the keto diet is foremost a high-fat, low-carb diet. Too much protein can actually interfere with ketosis. For this diet to work effectively, the majority of the calorie intake should ideally come from fats. Myth 3: Keto Diet Is Unsustainable Long Term Another myth is the unsustainability of the keto diet. While its strictness might seem daunting, once adjusted, many people find it easy to stick to as it tends to decrease hunger. Moreover, the keto diet encourages consumption of whole, nutrient-dense foods, promoting overall health. Long-term sustainability largely depends on personal lifestyle and choices. Myth 4: Keto Diet Is Unhealthy For Your Heart There is a misconception that due to its high-fat nature, the keto diet is unhealthy for the heart. However, not all fats are created equal. The keto diet encourages consumption of unsaturated fats, which are beneficial for cardiovascular health. There are numerous cases where individuals following the keto diet have experienced improved heart health indicators such as cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Myth 5: Keto Diet Leads to Nutrient Deficiencies Lastly, many believe that the restrictive nature of the keto diet can lead to nutrient deficiencies. While it does limit certain food groups rich in nutrients, it also includes a wide array of other nutrient-rich foods like leafy greens, avocados, seeds, nuts, and meats. Therefore, with a balanced approach, nutrient deficiencies can be easily avoided. Conclusion The ketogenic diet, like any other, has its pros and cons that can vary from individual to individual. It's crucial to debunk these myths surrounding the keto diet and approach it with proper knowledge and understanding. Always remember to consult a health professional or a dietician before embarking on any new diet regimen.
