There is a myth associated with wines. Of late, many chefs are debunking the red wine for red meat and white wine for white meat theory. Forget the myth. Whatever wine you enjoy should be used regardless of red or white meat. If you don't drink wine, anything from coffee to a highball will do depending on your taste. So sit back, relax and enjoy.
and concentrate on eating a lot of salads and fresh vegetables, but easy on the dressing. I would do my own using just a little olive oil and more wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar with a pinch of sea salt & some herbs.
Consume quality protein like grilled fish, chicken & turkey breast and eat less carbs from breads and stuff.
Drink plenty of water 1 hour away from meals.
Increase your activity level. Walk (brisk) everywhere and for longer time.
Do some aerobic exercise daily.
Often we crave the very things that cause us problems. Popcorn isn't good for anyone. Most corn is also GMO. You can find such information on mercola.com. A lot of people with GERD are sensitive or even allergic to food preservatives and sulfites and aren't aware of this. The pickles on the market aren't typically made the traditional ways that we know our grandparents and great grandparents would've known how to do. This is true of sauerkraut, too.
How do I get my A1C levels down I was labeled by my physician as prediabetic in 1 year I went from 5.8-6.0 though I lost 6 pounds is there anything I should be doing will Apple Cider vinegar help.
Balsamic Rice is better than plain white rice, and wild rice is better. French fries are not good, nor a lot of any kind of white Potatoes. Sweet potatoes are better. You can use riced of mashed Cauliflower as a potato substitute, may need to put some garlic with it if you aren't fond of Cauliflower. Spaghetti squash is GREAT if you use 2 table spoons of your favorite spaghetti sauce. 300 calories for pasta, and 10 calories for same amount of the squash.
Instead, focus on good complex carbs vs bad simple carbs, what foods these are and portion sizes your body can accept. Google search simple vs complex carbs to see what they are.
Fruits contain fruit sugar, fructose. Not all fruits are the same. Berries and melons contain the least amount where tropical fruits - pineapples, mangoes, etc - contain the most fructose. Again, use Google search to understand the different levels.
For different people and for different cultures these foods will differ, and allergies, food intolerances, and individual differences make a difference as well. Experimentation generally helps with this. The carbs you want to avoid are simple carbs, such as sugar and white flour -- but remember, all those veggies are carbs too so it's not carbs that are your enemy. Whole grains and whole foods in general will be digested and metabolized more naturally than these highly processed foods.
They are everywhere and they are good for you, complex carbs.
I eat as much as I want of refined starches like white bread, white rice, white pasta, fried potatoes, whipped potatoes. The other key element to this cure is to get plenty of acidic food/drink such as limeade, lemonade, vinegar, tomato juice, and tomatoes (the soft seeds in tomatoes do not hurt me). I had suffered for 31 years with debilitating abdominal cramps, chronic diarrhea, and severe extreme intestinal gas.
How do you eat less carbs for breakfast? I can't seem to get away from bad carbs at breakfast.
According most doctors I have spoken with, the vinegar test produces too many false positives and negatives to be reliable. I wouldn't put any stock in this "test".
It could even be sulfites. Look at the huge long list of ingredients in each of the things mentioned. There are quite a few non-food items in each of those things. One thing that is loaded with sulfites is the corn syrup. There is absolutely nothing natural left about corn syrup. First off, corn itself is a high allergen. Second, it's a four step process of adding various chemicals to make high fructose corn syrup.
The longer fermentation period allows for the accumulation of a nontoxic slime composed of acetic acid bacteria and soluble cellulose, known as the mother of vinegar. Fast methods add mother of vinegar (i.e. bacterial culture) to the source liquid and then add air using a venturi pump system or a turbine to promote oxygenation to give the fastest fermentation. In fast production processes, vinegar may be produced in a period ranging from 20 hours to three days.
Dr Ramsetty no longer moderates on the Ask A Doctor forum. Your post has been forwarded to this patient-2-patient forum.
As far as cinnamon reducing and/or controlling glucose levels in humans, the jury is still out and has been for the past 5-7 years. Five years ago the recommended daily intake was 1/4 tsp. I see from caregiver's post, it's being suggested at 2 tsp per day.
Since November I've had intense vaginal itching, so much to the point of chafing. I went to the doc, and she said I had a bacterial infection, and gave me antibiotics. Mind you, I AM on birth control, and had been previously taking antibiotics for an ear infection. So, I was thinking I had the YI from the antibiotics. But, the bacterial infection, I had a LOT of discharge and there was an odor.
I recently developed very white spots under my armpits and I also noticed this same change to my pigmentation in my vaginal and anal areas. This happened after my father and then my mother died. I have general anxiety that comes and goes over their deaths but I never thought that anxiety or stress would manifest itself through my skin cells destroying itself! I am a middle aged dark skinned woman of Polynesian, African, Native American descent.
You will manage to stay away from consuming too much simple carbs, products with yeast (Wine, Beer) even synthetic sugar substitutes – if you are lucky, disciplined, and eager to take control of your life. Only after medication and recovery that probiotics supplements may work - only then populating your intestines with beneficial bacteria may work. Study Candida if you have white mucus in your stool.
So I have a co-worker who does shots of apple cider vinegar every day and talks about all the health benefits. I decided to research into it and am starting to give it a try. It's supposed to be helpful in lowering blood sugars.
I've seen articles and videos online about adding it to your drinking water and to sweeten with lemon juice and or honey and or stevia if you can't stomach the taste.
---Calories from carbs contribute greatly to weight gain if a big percentage of your calories comes from breads, pastas, grains etc.
Because your protein comes from foods which contain a high number of
carbs (most of complete proteins come from food combining in vegetarian diets) it could be an issue.
--- Protein has 4 calories per gram and about 25% of the calories from protein are lost due to heat/metabolism. This is called Thermic effect.
