When can diabetics drink tea?

Hi, glad to be able to answer your question!

People with diabetes tend to have "three more and one less" symptoms. Among them, excessive drinking and thirst is a characteristic symptom. Therefore, in Chinese medicine, diabetes is also known as "thirst syndrome"!

So, can diabetics drink tea?

It is possible for diabetics to drink tea properly. Many diabetic farm laborers, they often bring a large bottle of tea instead of bringing water when they work, according to their reaction, the thirst-quenching effect of bringing tea is better than plain water. And often drink tea has antioxidant, cardiovascular protection function, appropriate tea for blood concentration dilution also has a certain effect on the human body is a certain benefit.

But you can't drink more, excessive tea drinking is not good for diabetic patients! For example, some diabetic patients drink a lot of tea, resulting in diuretic effect, a large number of urination can easily lead to excessive loss of sugar and calories, while the body of hypoglycemic drugs, easy to lead to the occurrence of hypoglycemia, hypoglycemia is life-threatening, minor will cause weakness, palpitations, hand tremors, weakness of the lower limbs, pale, etc., serious hypoglycemia will lead to confusion, organ supply shortage, more harmful. There are also some sensitive diabetic patients, they drink tea, often lead to brain excitation, resulting in insomnia and other symptoms, insomnia will lead to the next day of fatigue, drowsiness, physical decline, etc., but also prone to blood sugar fluctuations, poor blood sugar control. There are also some diabetic patients accompanied by gastric disorders, if a large number of tea, then it will cause an increase in gastric acid secretion, stomach upset, or a large number of tanning production, is also not good for the human body.

As a pharmacist, one thing that I would also like to remind you of is that some medications also interact with the ingredients in tea accordingly, which may increase or decrease the effect of the hypoglycemic medication, so it is also not recommended to take them together, or to take the medication with tea, etc!

Finally, I would like to say. Don't drink tea on an empty stomach, don't drink tea just after taking medication, don't drink tea if you have an upset stomach, don't drink tea if you are prone to insomnia, don't drink tea excessively, choose the right time period, and a little bit of proper drinking is not much of an effect!

I wish all sugar lovers good health!

It is not easy to code, adhere to the original, welcome to exchange messages, mutual learning, if you feel useful, you can point a praise oh, thank you!

My experience is to make tea an hour after breakfast, in an alabaster cup.

Drink this tea with water as you go and keep drinking it until you fall asleep at night.

Remember not to drink herbal tea to drink it hot and to mix it into falling open water. And also not to wait until you are thirsty to drink.

Diabetics drink tea in this way has a flavor, so that the concentration of tea gradually reduced. By the afternoon some tea flavor, the night will not affect sleep. One day down, if you feel too strong, the next day you can add or subtract the amount of tea.

Stick with it day by day ✊ Keeping your blood sugar under control and drinking lots of water is the way to go.

I've been sticking with this choice for five years, no matter what tea I drink. Offer it to sugar lovers .......
