First, bitter gourd
Momordica charantia is bitter in taste and cold in nature, and has the functions of clearing away heat, relieving summer heat, clearing liver, improving eyesight and detoxifying. Modern medical research has found that bitter gourd contains momordica charantia, 5- hydroxytryptamine, glutamic acid, alanine and vitamin B 1. The crude extract of Momordica charantia has similar effect to insulin, which can reduce blood sugar and has a good preventive and therapeutic effect on diabetes. If diabetics do not have spleen and stomach deficiency and cold, they can eat 250-500 grams of bitter gourd every day in summer.
Second, onions
Sweet, pungent, slightly warm, similar to onion and garlic, it has the functions of strengthening stomach, appetizing and promoting qi circulation, and can reduce blood sugar when eaten with garlic. Onions contain a similar hypoglycemic drug, methylsulfonylurea. Eating onions regularly can not only satisfy hunger, but also lower blood sugar and treat diseases. Usage: Stir-fry 1 root onion for every meal, twice a day. It's best to be tender and crisp when frying, not overcooked. Regular consumption can not only help diabetics reduce hunger, but also lower blood sugar.

Float wheat can benefit qi, clear heat and stop sweating; Wheat bran can regulate moderate coke, clear away heat and stop sweating, and can be selected according to the needs of the disease. Eggs, wheat bran and flour are mixed in a ratio of 6: 4 to make cakes, which can be used as dinner or meals for diabetics.
Fourth, konjac
Amorphophallus konjac is a kind of food with low calorie and high cellulose. Amorphophallus konjac is not only nutritious, but also has unique medical and health care functions. Glucomannan contained in konjac has a good hypoglycemic effect on diabetic patients. Because of its large molecular weight and high viscosity, it can delay the absorption of glucose and effectively reduce the increase of postprandial blood sugar. Because of its strong water absorption and low heat energy, it can not only increase satiety, reduce hunger, but also lose weight, so it is an ideal food for diabetic patients.
Five, pumpkin
Sweet in taste and warm in nature, it has the functions of tonifying the middle energizer, benefiting qi, diminishing inflammation and relieving pain. Modern research has found that pumpkin can promote insulin secretion and prevent diabetes.
Seven, guava
It has a certain effect on regulating blood sugar, and pomegranate leaves are better than fresh fruits. Animal experiments show that the effective component in pomegranate leaves is flavonoid glycoside, which has no obvious effect on improving insulin level. Therefore, it is speculated that it regulates blood sugar not by improving islet function, but by improving the utilization rate of glucose in surrounding tissues. Therefore, it is beneficial for diabetic patients to use pomegranate leaves instead of tea for a long time.
Eight, eels
Monopterus albus contains "Monopterus albus A" and "Monopterus albus B", which can restore the normal physiological function of regulating blood sugar.

Generally, if you insist on eating 100 ~ 150g every day for 3 ~ 4 weeks, you can see the decrease of fasting blood glucose and urine glucose.
Nine, tremella
Rich in dietary fiber, low in heat energy. Tremella fuciformis is rich in auricularia polysaccharide, which has obvious influence on the hypoglycemic activity of insulin. Animal experiments show that tremella polysaccharide can affect the activity of insulin, and prolong the action time of insulin in vivo from 3 ~ 4 hours to 8 ~ 12 hours, thus making it play a better role.
Ten, mulberry leaves, mulberry
Many reports say that mulberry leaves and mulberries can help treat diabetes. Contains the total polysaccharide of mulberry leaves, which can regulate blood sugar and can be used as tea with mulberry leaves. Conditional diabetic patients may wish to give it a try.
