Diabetic nutrition

Diabetes mellitus forces people responsible for their health to follow the carbohydrate content of food, because due to a violation of their metabolism as a result of insulin deficiency, an increase in blood glucose levels occurs.

Alternative healers for therapeutic purposes in diabetes mellitus use and berries of velvet wood. Velvet (it is the Amur or Amur cork velvet) is a tall plant, a long-liver, common in the Far East, Sakhalin, the Kuril Islands, which can also be found in China, Japan, and Korea.

It is a moisture-loving berry that grows in the regions of the Northern Hemisphere in swamps, in forests and near mountains. To us from the country it is planted mainly from the Far East, so the berry is not often found on sale.

Irga is not a very popular berry in our region, although it grows in Ukraine (and also in Russia, Japan, Europe, America). In appearance, the fruit resembles a dog rose, only the color of ripe berries is not red, but blue.
