Health / Economic Importance Of Apple Cindar Vinegar by Vincy95: 1:19pm On Apr 19, 2017 |
HEALTH: importance of Apple cider vinegar Apple cider vinegar is one of the most popular natural health products around, with claims for everything from sanitizing toothbrushes to whittling waistlines. But how much of its popularity is based on hype? Could you be wasting your time or -- even worse -- harming your health? Here are 10 of the top ways people are using apple cider vinegar Some people praise the use of apple cider vinegar as a cure-all for a range of conditions, including diabetes, weight loss, sore throats, skin and hair problems and more. But what does the science say? Diabetes What's the most popular use for apple cider vinegar? If a simple internet search is any measure, it involves diabetes. Dietitian Carol Johnston has been studying the effects of the main component of any vinegar, acetic acid, on diabetic blood glucose levels since 2004. She's conducted 10 small randomly controlled studies and published six papers on the subject. Her studies indicate vinegar can help lower blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes; in those who are prediabetic, also called insulin-resistant; and even in healthy control subjects. The improvement was slight for all but those at risk for diabetes, she says. "In pre-diabetics, it was too good to be true," says Johnston, who is also associate director of the University of Arizona's School of Nutrition and Health. "It fell a good bit and stayed that way. It may be this is the group that could benefit the most." Image result for diabetic patience image Add caption But this antiglycemic response can be induced by any sort of vinegar, she says: red and white wine vinegars, pomegranate vinegar or even white distilled vinegar. She suggests adding it to salads, as in the Mediterranean diet, or diluting it in water and drinking it before a meal. "Basically, what acetic acid is doing is blocking the absorption of starch," Johnston says. "If my study subjects eat a starch and add vinegar, glucose will go down. But if they drink sugar water and add vinegar, nothing happens. So if you're having bacon and eggs, don't bother. It only helps if you are consuming a starch." If you choose to use apple cider vinegar, be sure to tell your doctor, says nutritionist Lisa Drayer. "If you're taking a diabetes drug, the vinegar could amplify the effects of your meds," she warns, "and your doctor might want to adjust your dosage." Most important, if you're expecting vinegar to significantly alter or prevent diabetes, science suggests you reconsider. Johnston notes that there is no evidence, in her studies or others, to establish that connection. "I simply determine if your glucose level goes up and down," she says. "If I was to show that vinegar slows progression to diabetes, then I would need hundreds of people and millions of dollars to do the studies, because diabetes has a lot of causes, including genetics." Weight loss Weight loss, or dieting, is another popular use for apple cider vinegar and there is some evidence that it can help. The most cited study was done with 175 heavy but otherwise healthy Japanese subjects. READ @ www.vincyike.news

Education / See The Reason Why Federal Polytechnic Oko Students Find It Hard To Make Sentenc by Vincy95: 6:32am On Apr 06, 2017 |
I wonder what or how they will write their standard application letters whilst some students have never heard of the word CV (Curriculum Vitae) Say God help them as you read on… Most times we seem to wonder why we students were much good expressing ourselves with written works like the essay, compositions and other forms or written expressions not leaving behind the writing of exams whilst we were in the secondary school. But on a closer look, we have lost those touches and experience those skill and charisma for writing, that joy we derive expressing ourselves voraciously in a sheet of paper accompanied with a pen. The introduction of CBT pattern of examination these days in... Read on@: www.gistmenow247..com |
