Top 8 Home Remedies for Treating Diabetes
It is week 3 and post 5 of #MyfriendAlexa. And I am sharing the treatment aspect of diabetes from the last post. If you had missed that part please click here.
There are various home remedies are available that can be used to lower the blood sugar level. What are the top 8 home remedies for diabetes? How to use them? And what are the precautions you should keep, while using home remedies? Read on to know more!
Before using any home remedy for managing your blood sugar level, here are few important things that should be kept in mind.
- As we all know there is no permanent cure for diabetes. According to diabetesresearch.org achieving optimal glucose control remains an unattainable goal for the vast majority of those with diabetes (especially in young adults)
- And the same thing applies to use home remedies too. Just like conventional treatment, these home remedies also help in maintaining blood sugar level (only). There is no natural substance that can cure diabetes permanently.
- Do not use any home remedy without making a proper consultation with your doctor. Discuss your diet, exercise schedule and prescribed medication before adding any home remedy to treat diabetes.
- Always use home remedies as an addition to conventional treatment. Never rely on only home remedies (and other alternative therapies) for treating diabetes.
- Each natural substance has their action and properties. Sometimes these home remedies may cause allergic reactions or side effects in some susceptible individual. So, it is equally important to use these with proper precautions to avoid any adverse effects.
- Like with conventional treatment, “Blood sugar monitoring” is one of the most important aspects of treating diabetes. Do check your blood sugar level regularly to know the efficacy of home remedies (along with the conventional treatment).
Here is the list of top 8 home remedies for diabetes and how to use it.
Fenugreek seed
Fenugreek seed is one of the well known home remedy for treating diabetes. (or methi dana) has amazing properties and health benefits. It is great for digestion, joint pain, hair problems and diabetes. A recent scientific study has confirmed that fenugreek seeds can be used as an adjuvant in the control of type 2 diabetes mellitus in the form of soaked in hot water. It has hypoglycemic properties and can lower your blood sugar level naturally.
How to use it?
There are a few ways to use it.

- Use the 1-2 teaspoons of fenugreek seed powder in the morning along with Luke warm water or milk.
- You may make fenugreek seeds as a vegetable (mixed with routine spices and little oil) to add this in your diet.
Precautions
Usually, this home remedy has no side effects but in some people, it may cause gastrointestinal symptoms such as gas, diarrhoea and stomach pain. In some people, as a side effect, it may produce respiratory symptoms. It is also not a safe option for pregnant and breastfeeding women. If you had any of this issue, consult your doctor before using it.

Bitter gourd is one of the well-known substances that used as a home remedy for treating diabetes. It has the amazing quality to treat diabetes naturally.

During the first year,I had faith in God that i would be healed someday.This disease started circulating all over my body and i have been taking treatment from my doctor, few weeks ago i came on search on the internet if i could get any information concerning the prevention of this disease, on my search i saw a testimony of someone who has been healed from (Hepatitis B and Cancer) by this Man Dr OMOYE and she also gave the email address of this man and advise we should contact him for any sickness that he would be of help, so i wrote to Dr. OMOYE telling him about my (DIABETES Virus) he told me not to worry that i was going to be cured!! hmm i never believed it,, well after all the procedures and remedy given to me by this man few weeks later i started experiencing changes all over me as the Dr assured me that i have cured,after some time i went to my doctor to confirmed if i have be finally healed behold it was TRUE, So friends my advise is if you have such sickness or any other at all you can email Dr (OMOYE) (dromoyespellcastertemple@gmail.com) or vist Dr on WhatsApp+2347036484707.

I have been casting spells for many years and I have helped many people, I might be able to help you too. I am honest, and I genuinely care for all the clients who choose me to cast a spell for them.
If you have any questions about Love, Money, curse, protection, bad luck, divorce, court cases, or about me please call or email me. I really want you to feel comfortable before moving forward with any spells, or other services. I will take the time to explain things to you and provide you with honest advice, to what is best for your situation.

I perform my Rituals only at night between the hours of 0.00 – 0.59 (South African time) lasting 1 hour but of course, this depends on the nature of the ritual, some rituals might take hours and can also become necessary to be performed at specials places like; flowing streams, cemeteries and other places dictated by the gods.
I do not want anyone to be under any illusions about my spells and its numerous rituals. Real and effective Voodoo is no child’s play, it is expensive because, after the rituals, I will have to destroy all the materials involved by fire and the ashes scattered over a flowing stream or river.

Twelve months ago I constantly had to go to the bathroom. I thought it was because I gave up soft drinks and was only drinking water. One day I had a stomachache. I was in bed for 4 days. The doctor’s appointment was for a Wednesday. I got sick and went to emergency room on a Monday. I was told my blood sugar level was 810 and I have diabetes. I was taking taking metformin 1000 mg twice daily. It Wasn’t really helping Last year, a family friend told me about Organic Herbal clinic and their successful Diabetes TREATMENT, I visited their website ww w . organicherbalclinic. co m and ordered their Diabetes Formula, i am happy to report the treatment effectively treated and reversed my Diabetes, most of the symptoms stopped, I’m able to eat well, sleep well and exercise regularly., I’m pretty active now and my attitude is extremely positive.

Good Day everyone, just want to share my experience here so you all should be more careful when contacting any herbalist for solution cos majority of the testimonies are fake and were the ones that fooled me.they all uses the same local code number (+234) cos i have been screwed by some of them.My Husband was suffering from Hsv for years and i went everywhere to get useful information that will help cure or suppress the disease.then i came across testimonies of those that took my hard earn money without any useful information or cure but they keep telling stories.about two months ago, a new staff was employed in my place of work and when He heard about my Husband Disease He was so remorseful and told me about Dr Tebor .but i felt it was still one of those Internet guys so i didn’t call or text Dr Tebor. later that week, He asked me if i`ve heard from Dr Tebor and he gave me proof and reasons to try.well, lots of thanks to Dr Tebor cos as im writing this message, my Husband is CURED through the herbs that Dr Tebor sent to us.so after my experience, i decided to save some people from falling to the hands of SCAMS.thx for your time and if you require the service of Dr Tebor you have to reach him via email: (Teborherbalcenter@gmail.com) or WhatsApp/Call +2349059544255, You can also visit his website,,,, https://teborherbalcanter.wordpress.com
