Milk is one of the drinks that, by nature, is usually present on the table, because in addition to the traditional, it can be found in different derivatives and accompany various foods. This is a ‘favorite’ product due to its price, affordability and given its multiple health benefits: it is rich in vitamins, calcium and protein.
However, some people over time discover that they are lactose intolerant and begin to consider other options to replace it. There are also those who seek to maintain a balanced lifestyle with a healthy diet, regardless of whether or not they are prone to gaining weight.
What kind of liquid to consume?
However, the product that facilitates greater control of body weight is almond milk, which is close to the traditional one, in terms of its nutritional component. In accordance with Medical News Today, This is rich in calcium, Vitamin D, E and some added proteins, it also has a lower number of calories (39.3) than that coming directly from the cow (102).
Meanwhile, and to be more certain that your intake is in line with the intended purpose, it is important to check that it does not contain added sugars. If you decide to include it at the time of marketing, it is worth knowing other benefits, such as the fact that it does not increase the level of sugar in the blood, making it ideal for diabetics or those who seek to improve their diet.
Medical News Today highlights that almond milk (but enriched), in addition to contributing to a balanced weight, helps strengthen bones. The added calcium becomes the alternative also for vegans or for those who are lactose intolerant.
How to lower blood sugar?
The World Health Organization (WHO) explains that diabetes develops once the pancreas does not generate the necessary insulin or when the body does not process it as it should. Blood vessels and nerves can become affected over time when glucose is high, being a factor in uncontrolled diabetes.
“Early diagnosis can be achieved through relatively inexpensive blood glucose tests. Diabetes treatment involves diet and physical activity along with lowering blood glucose and levels of other known risk factors for damage to blood vessels. Quitting tobacco use is also important to avoid complications, ”says the WHO on its official website.
The analysis found during a monitoring that comparing the participants who were detected with type 2 diabetes with those who did not, they found in the former a lower intake of foods of plant origin and a higher body mass index.
The WHO recommends, for its part, increasing physical activity by at least 30 minutes of regular exercise with a moderate intensity most of the week. The duration or dedication of this might be higher, depending on the weight of the person.
