Do you have a reason to avoid turmeric?

 

[wiseowl_123]

Ni but I have no idea what it is

 

[daisyduck]

Tumeric is used as one of the spices in curries etc. I've read it's supposed to be very good for diabetics. There are lots of other claims on this link too. https://draxe.com/turmeric-benefits/

Good evening and thank you @daisyduck my friend much appreciated

6. Diabetes management

For lowering blood sugar and reversing insulin resistance there’s arguably no better natural treatment than adding turmeric into your diet.

In 2009, Biochemistry and Biophysical Research Communications published a study out of Auburn University that explored how supplementing with turmeric can help reverse diabetes.

The study discovered that curcumin in turmeric is literally 400 times more potent than Metformin (a common diabetes drug) in activating AMPK which improves insulin sensitivity which can help reverse Type 2 Diabetes.

In addition to correcting the causes of diabetes, curcumin has also been proven to help reverse many of the issues related to insulin resistance and hyperglycemia.

Take, for instance, diabetic neuropathy and retinopathy. One of the most common complications of diabetes is damaged blood vessels which cause blindness.

A study found that supplementing with curcumin can delay this horrible complication of diabetes because of its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

Good evening @Bellatom my friend thank God for a sense of humour,after following @daisyduck link I think I will up it to 3 a day,just eaten one with butter and sardines on,Wow!

Reading post \sardine Roll 5.7

Just had half toasted one side and the other cheese, a few drops of worcester sauce and black pepper.
I keep mine in the freezer and just take out 1 at a time otherwise could easily eat 2 or 3 just on their own warm with a little butter. God send for me.

I'm off stuff like that at the moment, but I could only manage half before I felt stuffed.

Im addicted to them too, I have one a day in the week and sometimes two on Sat/Sun. I have to have them toasted and cheese , ham and peanut butter are good toppings. They hardly spike my BS at all.

I'm missing out here.... Lidl in the morning then... I am craving cheese on toast now.

A million times better cut in half and toasted.

I wonder - I had my lowest ever BG readings after eating four of the rolls in the previous two days.

Watch it - it turns you YELLOW!!! :***::***:

Seriously though, take care if using turmeric powder as it can stain both things and fingers as my worktop lays witness to after my husband's been flinging it around when making curries...

Oops. but very true. My plastic microwave bowl has a yellow tinge now after cooking my cauliflower pilau rice

 

[Avocado Sevenfold]

I drink turmeric milk for breakfast 5 days a week and love it. I get a yellow tongue

Be careful though if you are on blood thinning medication as I read it can interact.

Went on a Lidl run today, I'll be blowed, the protein rolls i got are almost twice the size! The first time ever my local store has stocked the larger size rolls. I bought them all, 14 I think. Weighed one, 105 gr.

 

[daisyduck]

I just received a blog email with a useful tumeric recipe. (we would have to substitute the maple syrup and I'm not sure about rice milk.. I'd use almond or soya) Plus a run down of some of the health benefits.
