Helps with insulin resistance

Hello!!

I have insulin resistance and for that reason I have to take metformin 500mg three times a day.

I would like to know if anyone recommends any natural medicine, as I no longer want to take pharmacy drugs.

Do you eat bread and pasta? I read an article recently that "gluten" eventually causes insulin resistance is it can act like insulin itself.
Try a search on that info on duckduckgo. Ditch google they suppress tons of good alternative health info as they are owned by big pharma.

Duckduckgo is essentially Google search results through a 'privacy' filter. I would choose another search engine, such as Qwant.

The simplest and most overlooked thing to combat insulin resistance is simply.. Exercise.. And plenty of it.

We are told that 30 minutes a day of brisk walking is enough exercise to avoid illness..

This advice is garbage.. Humans have always had a need for movement, and large amounts of it. Hours per day of varying intensity movement.

If you cannot do this, then very high intensity exercise is required for around one hour per day, with a rest day when you feel too tired.

Exercise and movement and the internal body processes that occur as a result is sufficient in and of itself to return the body's insulin sensitivity to normal.

Now that you mention it, i have never seen people that exercise a lot that have diabetes. Never thought of it this way, thanks for that.

Needless to say, artificial sugars, high-fructose syrups and the likes should be cut too.
Also candy.

As for muesli: unsweetened.
Plain oats to which you add fruits and nuts are fine too.

All those cause a high blood sugar spike onto which the pancreas also responds with high levels of insulin.

Natural sweeteners like cold processed organic honey can still be beneficial to health, just don't consume it in large amounts.
The reason I specify it like this is because main brand honeys tend to be altered in some way, sadly.

Thank you all for help and guidance. :D

To reverse insulin resistance you will need to put a lot of effort into your diet, one important thing to do is to limit the time frame in which you eat, so for example only eat in a time frame of 6 hours, outside of this you should not eat. slowly work yourself to this point so if you eat throughout the day right now tell yourself to not eat 3 hours before bedtime, slowly chip away at it.

A.k.a Intermittent fasting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermittent_fasting

I do it, just one day a week: not eating till dinner time. Sometimes I go for longer.

that's right, but intermittent fasting can work poorly for some people, so i would always recommend to slowly ease yourself into it. That said it is important to be consistent, 1 day a week is not going to be as efficient as doing it for example 6 days a week.

Unless you are talking about excess in what you refer to as "poison" the inflammatory reaction can be lessened and eventually removed with Sun's energy mainly, and Mars' energy secondarily (digestion). The Moon is also very useful for directly against inflammation (cooling in nature).

There are also Runic equivalents to the above.

You really should learn about astrology and your personal weak spots, and eventually apply spiritual solutions to your weak points as that is the only way for lasting positive change.

I am not phased by the false implications that removing plant toxins from my body is in any way shape or form an "impediment" of my spiritual progress. Believe what you want. It is up to those who know and do what is right to prevail. i will do what I must. Knowing that I am right is a virile boost to my vitality, and gives me the drive to steamroll all enemies.

I did not say or imply such thing.

I meant that by increasing certain energies in your soul you can increase your health attributes. Such approach will give lasting results, even lasting to other lifetimes.

Personally, I found a keto diet with intermittent fasting works for me. I had lost about 20 pounds doing it before. Don't bother with those "keto snacks", they're just junk food with artificial sweeteners that claim to be "low impact". Truth is, the artificial sweeteners are actually worse than "regular" sugar. When I lived with my parents, my mother had insisted on buying diet soda for us. I didn't know about the damage this inflicted upon my body until after I started taking my physical health more seriously. I know she meant well, but she was misinformed.

When my financial situation improves so that I no longer have to live and work in a vehicle through most of the year, I'll be able to actually cook again and not depend so much on processed foods. I only use the processed foods out of convenience due to time constraints and crappy work-life balance.
