Imagine standing in front of the mirror with a smile on your face celebrating your weight loss. Better yet, imagine feeling great in your body. No more blood sugar spikes. You are full of energy, ready to take on life.
Do you want to manage your weight while keeping your blood sugar low?
This is not a dream and certainly not an impossible task. Using these 15 powerful superfoods, you can achieve your goals without a crazy amount of effort. Let’s learn how.
Avocados
Avocados are a fantastic source of healthy fat that can stabilize your blood sugar and insulin. They can also protect you from high blood pressure, heart disease and stroke.
Coffee
You just got an excuse for your morning joe. A new study from the University of California, Los Angeles has found that drinking coffee can decrease your risk of developing type 2 Diabetes. According to another study, decaf can help too and lower your risk by 22%.
Apple Cider Vinegar
ACV is an amazing natural remedy that you should keep at home for so many reasons. Drinking it before meals and at bedtime can lower your post-meal glucose by 34% and reduce your fasting blood glucose in the morning.
Nuts And Seeds
Sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, cashews, pecans, brazil nuts, pistachios, macadamias and other nuts and seeds are perfect snacks that can satisfy and stop your cravings while keeping your blood sugar stable and your waistline healthy. Our Organifi Complete Protein includes an effective dose of pumpkin seed protein to aid your digestive health and weight management.
Olive Oil
Olive oil is high in monounsaturated fats that can lower your risk of diabetes, heart disease, colon cancer and asthma. According to a recent study, it can lower your risk of type 2 Diabetes by 50% and improve your blood sugar levels, blood lipid levels and insulin resistance.
Turmeric
Turmeric is the best superspice that as science shows can improve your blood sugar levels. It can also reduce inflammation, pain and help reduce the risk of all kinds of disease in your body. Our Organifi Green Juice and Organifi Gold both include an effective dose of turmeric to help your body thrive.
Coconut Oil
Coconut oil can not only help your blood sugar levels, but can also better your cholesterol and support good heart health. It can also reduce inflammation and help you lose weight.
Beans
According to a study at the University of Toronto, beans and legumes can regulate your blood glucose and insulin levels. They are also inexpensive, filling and versatile.
Dark Green Leafy Vegetables
Leafy greens like kale, spinach, baby greens and chard are abundant in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, phytonutrients and fiber. Their low calorie and high nutrient content make them ideal to help you achieve your weight loss goals. Diets high in green vegetables can also reduce your risk of diabetes.
Cruciferous Vegetables
Not only greens, but cruciferous vegetables, like broccoli, peppers, brussels sprouts and radishes can lower your risk of diabetes. They can also lower inflammation in your body.
Garlic And Onions
Studies have found that onions and garlic can improve glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity. They are also antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal and contain antioxidants, helping your body to stay healthy.
Berries
Berries are amazing fruits that are sweet, yet have a low-glycemic index, making them ideal for diabetics. They can help control your blood sugar, reduce insulin resistance and aid weight loss. Our Organifi Red Juice is abundant in various berries, including an effective dose of each.
Cacao
Yes, you can get your chocolate on and lose weight! Raw cacao is one of the most amazing superfoods out there. There are countless studies showing how it can balance your blood sugar, lower insulin resistance, reduce the risk of diabetes and help weight loss.
Seaweed
A 2008 study has found that seaweed can help with post-meal blood sugar spikes. Our Organifi Green Juice is powered by not one, but two types of seaweed, spirulina and chlorella, to help your health and weight loss goals.
Green Tea
Green tea has been popular since ancient times. It can help with insulin resistance and weight gain.
Ginger
Just like turmeric, ginger is another superroot that can balance your blood sugar levels. It is also antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal and extremely beneficial to your digestive health. Our Organifi Gold superfood mix includes an effective dose of ginger to help your body heal.
Red Wine
Wow, you’ve not only got an excuse to drink coffee AND eat chocolate (raw cacao!), but you can even drink alcohol for weight loss. Red wine is low-glycemic and a small glass a day can help to keep your blood sugar under control.
