Aloe vera, also known as aloe, is not only a skin beautifying plant but also has the ability to effectively control blood sugar.

Aloe vera contains compounds such as phytosterols, which have the ability to increase insulin sensitivity. This helps the body use insulin more effectively, thereby reducing blood sugar levels.

Aloe vera contains anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that help protect the beta cells in the pancreas, which produce insulin. This may help maintain pancreatic function and improve blood sugar control.

By controlling blood sugar levels well, aloe vera can help reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications such as nerve damage, cardiovascular disease, and eye problems.

To use aloe vera to control blood sugar, you can follow these steps:

Aloe vera juice:

Preparation: Take a fresh aloe vera leaf, wash it, peel off the skin and take the gel inside.

Preparation: Blend this gel with a little water to make juice.

Usage: Drink about 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of aloe vera juice every day. You can drink it directly or dilute it with water to make it easier to drink.

Aloe vera gel:

Preparation: Take the gel from fresh aloe vera leaves.

Uses: You can add aloe vera gel to your daily smoothies or drinks. This not only helps control blood sugar but also provides additional nutrients to the body.
