Vegan Nutrition Challenge #4 – Sugar sensitivity, hypoglycemia, and Candida.

In conjunction with mineral deficiencies, many individuals in the western world are afflicted with hypoglycemia. Estimates range as high as 40% of the population is suffering with hypoglycemia, but do not know it. The explosion of adult-onset diabetes also points to chronic mineral deficiencies as well as the over consumption of hydrogenated oils and refined sugar. Nearly everyone with digestive disturbances is suffering from some level of candida.
Ethical Solutions:

Coconut butter: Sunfood.com pioneered raw, organic coconut butter on the Internet in 1999. Coconut butter is a candida fighting, skin friendly, super oil. Coconut butter is a great clean source of vital energy. Coconut butter helps the body produce the pre-cursors to hormones.

Hempseeds and hempseed protein: The extraordinary content of protein in hempseeds can help stabilize blood sugar in those individuals with high-protein requirements.

Spirulina: The extraordinary content of protein in spirulina can help stabilize blood sugar in those individuals with high-protein requirements. Mixing hempseeds and spirulina together in a hempseed bag with pinches of Celtic Sea Salt is a valuable snack recipe for those with high protein requirements who need some low sugar, high-protein snack that is simple, easy, and that travels well.

Cacao nibs (beans): The magnesium and chromium content of cacao and cacao products has been demonstrated by Dr. Gabriel Cousens to clinically help type 2 diabetics lower their insulin requirements. That’s right…natural raw chocolate (cacao) actually improves the health of diabetics.

Yacon Root Syrup and yacon products: Our yacon root syrup has been specifically standardized to have at least a 30% FOS (fructo-oligosaccharide) count. This means that yacon is food for our friendly bacteria like acidophilus and bifidus. It also means that even though yacon syrup has a sweet taste, it does not significantly increase blood sugar levels. It can actually lower blood sugar levels. Yacon root syrup is a technological breakthrough in non-glycemic sweeteners. And yacon tastes better than stevia, xylitol, and other “no sugar” sweeteners.

Pau D’Arco (herb) tea: Pau D’Arco is a Central American and Amazonian tree bark that makes a delicious tea. Pau D’Arco is one of the best destroyers of candida known to humankind. Three to eight cups of Pau D’Arco tea each day are recommended for individuals suffering from candida or chronic digestive disturbances.

Probiotic bacteria: Friendly bacteria, especially acidophilus, are the natural enemies of candida. Sun Is Shining superfood formula contains friendly bacteria.

Aloe vera: Aloe vera is highly anti-fungal. Not only does aloe vera kill candida, but it stops digestive inflammation. The aloe must be raw, fresh, and the skin removed to have its entire medicinal effects. Fresh, raw aloe can be blended into teas or other beverages or consumed straight. Also, the long-chain sugars in aloe (called polysaccharides) provide long-term, even energy and therefore normalize blood sugar. Our company www.sunfood.com pioneered shipping raw, fresh aloe vera on the Internet in 2003. This is still one of our most loved products.

Kelp powder: An unrivaled source of minerals. As blood-sugar disorders are usually mineral deficiency syndromes, kelp helps to heal the problem at its root cause.

Low sugar fruits (cucumbers, tomatoes, bell peppers, okra, etc.): Ingesting more low-sugar, raw, organic fruits in one’s diet can help blood sugar disorders as well as substantially influence a more balanced and positive demeanor with less moodiness. Eating a low-sugar diet (even low in natural sugars such as fruit, honey, etc.) creates a feeling of calmness and “lightness.”

Cinnamon: A great natural source of blood-sugar balancing chromium.

Seaweeds (especially kelp powder): The mineral value of kelp continues to surprise everyone in the nutrition field.

Powdered green superfoods: Sun Is Shining and Pure Synergy lead the field in helping to remineralize our bones and body. As previously mentioned, Sun Is Shining also contains friendly bacteria.

Olives: Olives provide some of the best fat-soluble alkaline minerals in the entire plant kingdom.

Wild rice (raw and sprouted or cooked): An excellent source of minerals and protein. Wild rice is great for those needing more protein and slow-burning fuel.

Ocean-grown agriculture (ocean-grown wheatgrass, sprouts, and vegetables): By improving the mineralization of our soil and food with dilute ocean water (twenty parts pure water to one part ocean water), we improve our own mineralization as we eat that food. When plants and animals are deficient in minerals they become ill. When the required minerals are available, plants and animals become healthy. Mineralized food provides more balanced long-term energy.

Angstrom liquid minerals (especially: zinc, chromium, vanadium, selenium, manganese, and calcium): These liquid minerals lead the field. They are highly absorbable, orally active, and easy to travel with. Sunfood.com pioneered the distribution of these minerals by placing their availability on the Internet in 2002.
