The Dietary Suggestion according to TCM


6. Eat organic meats only
Grass-fed and grain-fed cattle have shown to significantly improve the fatty acid (FA) composition(1273)(1274) and antioxidant content of beef(1273). According to Norwegian University of Life Sciences, Pig feeds rich in rapeseed products contains high concentration of EPA, DPA, and DHA of which have shown to benefit to over health for the consumer(1272).

7. Intake of berries has shown to contribute to beneficial metabolic effects in preventing obesity(1275) and related disorders(1275)(1278)(1279), such as ameliorating total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol(1276), hyperglycemia(1277) and insulin sensitivity(1277), lowering fasting insulin level(1275),......

8. Intake cinnamon daily can improve insulin resistance and PCOs related metabolic syndrome
(See the Insulin resistance improvement and/or anti metabolic syndrome herb: Cinnamon for more information)
[Cinnamon is a spice derived from the inner bark of tree, native to South East Asia, of over 300 species of the genus Cinnamomum, belongings to the familyLauraceae used in herbal and traditional medicine as anti-microbial agent(1087) and to improve reproductive organs(1088), prevent flatulence(1089) and menstrual cramping(1087), treat gastrointestinal complaints(1089), diarrhea(1087), bad breath(1090), headache(1087), etc.(1086)(1087).

Ingredients(1087)
1. Cinnamic aldehyde
2.Cinnamyl acetate
3. Eugenol
4. Aldehyde
5. Pinene
6. Coumarins
7. Cinnzeylanol
8. Cinnzeylanine
9. Safrol
10. Methylhydroxy chalcone polymer (MHCP)

Epidemiological studies suggested that cinnamon consist a significant anti insulin resistance(1091)(1092)(1094) and anti metabolic syndrome(1093)(1094)(1095)(1096)(1097) properties, such as lowering total cholesterol(1093), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(1093) and improving high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(1093), may be due to its antihyperglycaemic (1091)(1093) and potential to reduce postprandial blood glucose levels(1091)(1092), liver fat(1098) and and improved glucose homeostasis(1098) properties, by regulating the mechanisms of-medicated glucose and lipid metabolism(1099), such as decreased the mRNA expression of inflammatory cytokine(TNF-alpha) in adipose tissue(1100) and upregulated mRNA expression of insulin-regulated membrane trafficking(1100) and whole body glucose homeostasi(GLUT-4) in skeletal muscle(1100)].

9. Adding bitter Melon and fenugreek into your diet

Epidemiological studies suggested that bitter melon displays a modest hypoglycemic effect(1280)(1281)(1283)and anti related complications in metabolic syndrome(1281)(1282).
Fenugreek not only showed to promote sexual arousal and desire in women, probly through its regulationj of total and free testosterone and other hormone(1284) but also exhibited hypoglycemic and hypocholesterolemic effects in in a dose-dependent manner(1285)

10. Insure adequate fiber intake through eating a lots of fresh vegetables and whole grains.
 High-fiber diets, especially of the soluble variety, and soluble fiber supplements has been recommended by several national diabetes associations management of the plasma glucose concentration in individuals with diabetes(1286)(1288) as it offers some improvement in carbohydrate metabolism(1287).
