Doctors named a unique berry that lowers blood sugar

One of the most effective means to fight prediabetes is blueberry, British doctors are sure. The power of the berry can be compared to medicines.

Blueberries are the fruits of a low-growing shrub from the heather family. The extract of these berries helps to reduce blood sugar. In the course of research, it was established that its effect was quite different from placebo.

Doctors explained that blueberries are able to break down carbohydrates, and they also help their absorption into the intestinal walls. Many pharmaceutical drugs have the same mechanism of action. Carbohydrates lead to a spike in blood sugar because they break down into glucose quite quickly.
