Gooseberries
Gooseberries are an excellent source of vitamin C and can aid in the treatment of pancreatitis and blood sugar control. The chromium in gooseberries helps regulate blood sugar levels and increase insulin sensitivity. Gooseberries can be ground and pickled before use.
Blackberry seeds
Blackberry seeds are effective in treating diabetes. They contain compounds such as jamboline and jambosine, which reduce the rate at which glucose depletes in the blood, thereby alleviating thirst and the need for frequent urination.
Garlic
Garlic has been proven to lower cholesterol and blood pressure. It can also help diabetics manage blood sugar levels. Studies indicate that garlic is effective in reducing fasting blood sugar levels and HbA1c levels. However, more research is needed in this area.
