Diabetic? Shopping Cart Secret Adds YEARS to Your Life
Type 2 diabetes is a leading cause of death.
And when you dig a little deeper, it’s easy to see why.
Diabetes sends your risk of most other major causes of death – like heart disease, Alzheimer’s, stroke, and cancer – soaring.
Fortunately, new research reveals a simple but powerful shopping cart secret to help folks with type 2 diabetes overcome those odds.
In fact, they could even end up ADDING years to their lives.
Researchers recently completed a meta-analysis to gather information on type 2 diabetes and all-cause mortality.
They combed through all the data and identified specific foods and nutrients tied to a reduced risk of dying from any cause.
Take a look:
- One serving of whole grains per day was tied to a 16 percent reduced risk of all-cause mortality.
- A single serving of fish per WEEK was tied to a 5 percent reduced risk.
- 100 milligrams of omega-3s per day reduced the risk of death by 13 percent.
- And 5 grams of fiber daily was linked to a 14 percent reduced risk.
This isn’t some crazy fad diet we’re talking about here. These foods and nutrients are the SAME ones consistently shown to boost health and longevity according to research.
They help reduce the risk of heart, brain, and blood sugar problems. So it’s not surprising that people with type 2 diabetes would also reap these benefits.
For example, eating whole grains has shown to improve insulin sensitivity and prevent blood sugar spikes.
Fatty fish contain omega-3s that are known to reduce inflammation and heart risk.
Plus, fiber helps slow digestion and controls blood sugar in the process.
In other words, these foods can help you stay healthy whether trying to avoid a condition like type 2 diabetes or manage it. Because the bottom line is they’re good for ALL of us.
P.S. Ever heard the saying eat breakfast like a king and dinner like a pauper? A study published in the journal Diabetes Care revealed there’s a good reason to follow the advice of this old adage. It could save your life—especially if you have diabetes. I’ve got all the details RIGHT HERE.
