Lion's mane against diabetes
Diabetes is a chronic disease characterized by high levels of glucose (sugar) in the blood. It can lead to serious complications, such as problems with the heart, kidneys, eyes and nerves. But there is a natural remedy that can help improve the condition of diabetes and
The main problems with diabetes are a chronically elevated level of glucose in the blood (hyperglycemia) and oxidative stress - damage to body cells by free radicals. They lead to the development of such complications of diabetes as cardiovascular diseases, damage to the kidneys (diabetic nephropathy), nerves (neuropathy), retina (retinopathy), etc. Glucose level control and protection against oxidative stress are key tasks in the fight against diabetes.
Scientific research on mice conducted in China in 2017 and published in the journal Scientifc Reports No. 7/2017 proved that special polysaccharides (complex carbohydrates) isolated from the mushroom Sea buckthorn have powerful anti-diabetic properties:
Polysaccharides of the mushroom significantly reduced the level of glucose in the blood by 28-52% compared to the untreated group, and this effect depended on the dose. These substances improved lipid metabolism by 40-60% - they reduced "bad" cholesterol and triglycerides, and increased "good" cholesterol
Polysaccharides from Lion's Mane protected vital organs from damage in diabetes:
1. restored the structure and functions of insulin-producing cells of the pancreas;
2. reduced inflammation, necrosis, fatty degeneration of liver tissues;
3. prevented the increase and damage of kidney glomeruli.
Due to their antioxidant properties, polysaccharides increased the activity of protective enzymes (superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase) by 50-100% and reduced oxidative damage to organs compared to the untreated group.
Another scientific study conducted in China in 2013 also showed that Lion's Mane extract has powerful anti-diabetic and antioxidant properties:
In an experiment on rats with diabetes, the mushroom extract significantly reduced the level of glucose in the blood, increased the level of insulin, improved indicators of lipid metabolism, that is, reduced "bad" cholesterol.
In subjects with diabetes who received the extract, the condition of the liver, kidneys, pancreas - the organs that suffer the most from diabetes - improved.
Therefore, the use of sea buckthorn or its extract can be a useful addition to the main treatment of diabetes. This natural, useful and effective remedy will help control glucose levels, protect the body from complications and improve well-being.
