Food for Diabetes: Managing blood sugar levels is important for diabetics. Did you know that mango leaves can exhibit surprising effects on controlling blood sugar and managing diabetes?
'Mango leaf extract (Mangiferin) has the ability to inhibit the enzyme alpha glucosidase, which helps reduce carbohydrate metabolism in intestine, and hence blood glucose levels. More research is needed to find out the exact dosage of the leaf extract,'' says Dr. Mahesh. D. M, Consultant Endocrinology, Aster CMI Hospital, Bangalore.
Mango leaves have the capability to improve insulin production and distribution of glucose. They can help in stabilising blood sugar levels. Mango leaves are also loaded with pectin, vitamin C and fibre. Together they are beneficial for both diabetes and cholesterol.
