Intro
Did you know that Diabetes and NERVE DAMAGE go hand in hand?
If you have been told you have diabetes, it's likely that
your doctor will check your hands and feet often.
Why?
Your doctor is looking for problems with your nerves.
Even when blood sugar is well-controlled,
Every body system, including the nervous system, can still
be affected by diabetes symptoms.
Have you ever felt numb or like your skin was tingling?
That may be a sign that you have diabetes-related nerve
damage.
But don't start wringing your hands yet...
In this article, you will learn more about 5 amazing natural
foods, that not many people know, are great at preventing and fixing nerve
damage.
Now, don't be scared. Let's work up the courage to find
out...
5 Unique Foods That Help Protect Nerves
PERIPHERAL DIABETIC NEUROPATHY is the most common type of
nerve damage caused by diabetes.
What is it?
The word "peripheral" just means nerves outside of
the brain and spinal cord.
"NEUROPATHY" is a problem with the nerves that can
make you feel numb or weak.
Neuropathy is often seen in people with diabetes,
obesity, infections, diseases of the kidneys and liver, and
even a lack of vitamins.
But people with diabetes aren't the only ones who can get
nerve damage.
Researchers have found that, in general, inflammatory
illnesses can make nerve damage more likely.
So, THE big step to keep nerve damage from happening?
Bring down the swelling inside!
As VITAMIN B is one of the main ingredients in medicines
that are used to reduce inflammation,
We're about to show you foods that are high in B vitamins
and good for your nerves.
And these foods also help fight diabetes in a lot of other
ways.
Bring to your table foods that are good for your nerves.
Microalgae are number five.
You can eat these tiny water plants fresh or dried.
You can even buy kits for growing microalgae that make
between 3 and 5
every day of fresh, green algae.
These little green powerhouses are made up of 60% protein!
Protein is important to the health of nerves because it
plays a key role
in SYNAPSES's health. You may have heard of these, but what
exactly are they?
Synapses are the places where nerve cells touch each other.
and which nerve signals are sent through.
So, the protein in this unique green food can help your
nerve health in certain ways.
On the other hand, 3 grams of microalgae gives:
7 percent of your daily need for vitamin B1 (thiamine), 9
percent of your daily need for vitamin B2 (riboflavin),
or needs for vitamin B2, -12%
6 percent of your iron needs, and 6 percent of your copper
needs.
B vitamins are important for nerve health because they help
nerves grow back.
And copper makes it easier for signals to travel along long
nerves.
Iron, on the other hand, is linked to nerve damage as
Children who don't get enough iron often get peripheral
neuropathy at a young age.
So, getting iron from microalgae can make this kind of nerve
damage less likely to happen.
But there's also another great source of nutrients
in microalgae. It gives you DHA and EPA, two powerful
omega-3 fatty acids.
Researchers have found that DHA makes blood flow better,
bringing oxygen to nerves that are far away and small.
And EPA slows down the rate of nerve death and inflammation
in the brain.
So, a daily microalgae dose can be unique
but it's a great way to get your nerves going in the right
direction.
Now, here's another food that can work out your nervous
system...
a dancing one.
Number 4: The mushroom that dances
Mushrooms that move.
This tasty food with a lot of protein is also called maitake
mushrooms in Japan.
People say that Buddhist nuns used to dance with joy when
they saw this fungus growing fruit at the bottom of trees.
These mushrooms, which taste like pasta, will not only make
your taste buds happy.
They will also make you feel better.
They have all the B vitamins,
and are one of the best food sources of vitamin D2
(ERGOCALCIFEROL).
Ergocalciferol is very important for the health of your
nerves.
It helps build a thicker nerve axon, which is the long
thread between nerve cells.
It has also been shown that vitamin D2 helps nerves heal
faster.
Plus, ergocalciferol has been shown to protect nerves and
stop nerve damage from happening.
Recent studies, on the other hand, show that dancing
mushrooms are linked to a lower risk of
some types of cancer, and they may even lower the chance of
getting type 2 diabetes.
So, add maitake mushrooms to sauces, omelets, and other
dishes next time you want to try something new and tasty.
You could even put them in a salad to help your nerves.
Number 3: Kale
Vitamin K is one of many vitamins that are important for a
healthy nervous system.
So, remember "K" for kale!
We get a lot of vitamin K from all green, leafy vegetables,
from spinach to collard greens.
One cup of kale can give you 200 to 500 micrograms of this
required food.
That's a lot more than the daily amount that both men and
women should get.
Vitamin K keeps nerve cells safe from oxidative stress,
which can cause cancer.
It also helps make SPHINGOLIPS, which are special fats found
in the membranes of nerve cells.
Vitamin K, on the other hand, protects against diseases that
damage nerve cells, like Alzheimer's.
In fact, studies show that just 200 micrograms of vitamin K
a day is enough to keep a person healthy.
So, use this flexible vegetable with curly leaves not just
for heart and bowel health.
But also, to lower the chance that you will hurt your
nerves.
We've found a lot of different things so far.
There are foods that will always help diabetic neuropathy.
Are you ready for the top two of the day?
Number 2: Sprats
You might find it odd that we didn't list oily fish, like
salmon or sardines.
Those are all good ideas.
But why not try something different and try this strange and
interesting oily fish?
Sprats are so small that we can eat them with their bones
and everything.
The bones of sprats have a lot of HYDROXYAPATITES in them.
Yes, you should really want to eat hydroxyapatite.
Because it is the most natural way to get calcium.
In a recent Chinese study, the effects of hydroxyapatite
were tested on rats with very badly injured nervous systems.
The results show that even when the nerves were cut off from
blood flow, the nerve damage was lessened by hydroxyapatite.
And, amazingly, once the blood flow was back to normal, the
nerves healed much faster.
So, the calcium in sprats is good for more than just your
bones.
Researchers have found that...
- Helps nerve axons carry electrical signals
- Starts nerves talking with each other or tissues
- gets bigger nerve cell metabolism
- keeps nerves from getting hurt
- helps nerve cells grow and heal nerve cells that have
been hurt.
While sprats are another oily fish that is high in protein,
They have a lot of omega-3 fatty acids that are good for the
heart and reduce inflammation.
As was already said, these fats can help your nerve cells
get the oxygen they need.
Just make sure to crunch on those bones if you want their
nerve-regenerating effects to be at their fullest.
Just add a garnish to make it taste better.
So how about a garnish as the best food for a healthy
nervous system?
You probably wouldn't think to put this in your dish,
but if you really want to calm down, you must try...
Number 1: Parsley with Curly Leaves
Parsley is an herb that is often overlooked.
But it doesn't cost much, is easy to grow, and tastes fresh
and different.
This green topping has shown that it has:
- antioxidant
- anti-bacterial
- anti-fungal
- anti-diabetic
- pain-relieving and
- acid-blocking properties.
That's all well and good, but how does it make you feel?
Parsley has the most APIGENIN of any food, whether it is
fresh or dried.
Studies show that this flavonoid protects nerve cells in a
powerful way.
Why?
Apigenin from food can get into the brain, which is why it
is so important.
Supplements are being looked at as a possible way to treat
Alzheimer's disease right now.
Apigenin reduces the number of chemicals that inflammatory
cells make,
which can help people with type 2 diabetes in particular,
as diabetes can cause too many of these inflammatory
cytokines to be made.
Apigenin also stops inflammatory cells from giving off too
much nitric oxide.
which can help lower oxidative stress.
And less oxidative stress means less nerve cell damage!
Plus, research shows that the apigenin in parsley helps keep
people from getting older.
Apigenin controls how much of an enzyme called CASPACE is
made.
This enzyme helps figure out when a cell dies.
Too much caspase activity is often the cause of nerve cells
dying too soon,
especially in people who have diseases that cause
inflammation.
But the apigenin in parsley can work to make your nerve
cells live longer.
As a green leafy plant, parsley also has vitamin K, which is
very important.
As well as iron, B vitamins, and vitamins A, C, D, and E in
a healthy amount.
Parsley also has small amounts of minerals that are good for
the heart and nerves.
Such as calcium, potassium, magnesium, and zinc.
This wonderful topping also has a little bit of protein in
it.
Overall, if you give your nerves and body some parsley, they
will thank you.
So, that's the end of it.
You don't have to be diabetic to try these 5 unique foods to
reduce nerve damage and help it heal.
Have you tried using natural foods to help ease the symptoms
of peripheral neuropathy?
Or maybe you've already tried one of these foods and noticed
a difference?
