The Super Diabetes Diet is truly THE Diabetes Diet, because it is specifically designed to help control, beat, and reverse Type 2 diabetes -- by providing a more sustained level of energy and key nutrients that diabetics (and non-diabetics) are missing when they consume the more traditional grain-based, overly-processed, nutrient-poor or starchy meal.
Some of the nutrients that are key to the effectiveness of THE Diabetes Diet include Omega-3 EFAs, carotenoids, chlorophyll, potassium, chromium, Vitamin E, Vitamin C, fiber, and water. In addition, by avoiding the grain-based breakfast, diabetics and non-diabetics will not experience the mid-morning “crash” or craving for processed food/beverages. Over time, this type of "super" meal will support blood glucose stabilization, cell repair and the regulation of the body's production and utilization of insulin.
