Apple cider vinegar with cinnamon

This drink helps stabilize blood sugar levels overnight by slowing carbohydrate digestion and preventing sudden spikes. It also contributes to more stable blood sugar the following morning.

Chamomile tea

Chamomile tea promotes deep sleep and reduces glucose spikes caused by cortisol. Its anti-inflammatory compounds improve insulin sensitivity, while antioxidants protect beta cells from damage, supporting nighttime metabolic recovery.

Turmeric milk

Curcumin in turmeric increases glucose absorption, thereby reversing insulin resistance. Diabetics can add a touch of ginger to soothe inflammation and support pancreatic function. This drink blend may protect the liver from fat accumulation while enhancing digestion, leading to better sleep.

Peppermint tea

For individuals with type 2 diabetes experiencing high stress levels, the calming effect of peppermint tea can be beneficial, as stress reduction often helps manage blood sugar. Opt for pure peppermint tea and avoid adding sugar to maximize its benefits.

Aloe vera juice

Aloe vera slows carbohydrate absorption due to its rich fiber content. It also enhances insulin signaling through plant compounds, promoting stable glucose control. The plant compounds in aloe vera juice also reduce high cholesterol associated with metabolic syndrome, while gently reducing inflammation without stressing the kidneys.
