This alarming scenario is mainly due to the increasing number of overweight people, which is attributed to lack of physical activity and obesity.

With the rise in diabetes patients expected to increase over 50 percent in the coming decade, trying to find an effective solution for the disease is important. While medications are available to keep the blood sugar in check, they are expensive and come with side effects. Research on coconut oil, especially pure virgin coconut oil reveals that it has remarkable influence on the condition. Coconut oil for diabetes treatment Diabetes is a disease that is characterized by inefficient insulin use (Type 2) or deficient insulin production (Type 1). In some instances, it occurs in pregnant women (gestational diabetes) and this can complicate pregnancy and childbirth. The rapid rise in complications and treatment has made it pertinent to find a better solution for diabetes. Coconut oil with its excellent health inducing properties has been under meticulous research for the possible treatment of diabetes. Why should you use coconut oil? Studies on societies in relation to food habits and disease prevalence have revealed that societies, which had coconut oil as their main saturated fat source showed a very low prevalence of diabetes.

For instance, a study on the Indian population showed that the diabetes epidemic started when they had abandoned traditionally used fats such as coconut oil and ghee, and shifted to the use of safflower and sunflower oils. Similarly, many of the Pacific Island regions, which use coconut oil also revealed an identical shift from a traditional diet containing coconut oil to modern processed and polyunsaturated foods, leading to an increased prevalence of diabetes.

Beneficial ingredients The ability of coconut oil to produce a positive impact on diabetes control is attributed to the following factors.  The medium chain fatty acid ingredients present in coconut oil help in controlling hunger cravings. This is because they promote thermo genesis, causing a big boost in metabolic rates. This helps you to lose weight and favors control of blood sugar.  Lauric acid, a key ingredient of coconut oil, is a type of fatty acid that is highly beneficial, as it prevents dyslipidemia induced by diabetes.  Trigylcerides, of medium chain variety, offer a highly therapeutic advantage in preserving brain function in a hypoglycemic condition and prevent harmful hyperglycemia from occurring. Thus, coconut oil helps in controlling Type 1 diabetes.  Type 3 diabetes, which is classified as Alzheimer’s disease, can also be controlled by using coconut oil.

Virgin coconut oil is especially of great advantage in diabetes management. It nourishes the cells that are weakened and malnourished due to diabetes. Since cells need fatty acid or glucose supply continuously to boost the metabolic function and remain alive, the loss of adequate glucose makes the cells weak and damaged. While fatty acids or glucose needs insulin to enter the cells, coconut oil does not need insulin. This is the reason why cultures that have coconut oil as part of the daily diet, are one of the healthiest in the world. Diabetes and other lifestyle diseases are rare in such cultures because of the consumption of coconut oil. However, when these cultures abandoned their traditional diet and turned to a modern and unhealthy western diet, which is rich in processed flour, sugar and refined foods, the incidence of diabetes and other related illnesses became more prevalent.

Blood sugar regulation The various ways in which coconut oil helps in keeping the blood sugar in control include  The MCFA (medium chain fatty acids) present in coconut oil are easily absorbed by the body, reducing the work of pancreas.  Balances thyroid gland secretion, resulting in regulated metabolism  Boosts energy in the body without raising blood sugar level  Enables slow food absorption resulting in feeling satiated for longer periods of time  Reduces risk of complications in diabetes and relieves the symptoms effectively.

How and when to take coconut oil to control diabetes When you take 2-3 tablespoons of coconut oil before your meals, it helps to lower the blood sugar levels, which are at 80 to 100 points over the normal sugar levels, within a span of 30 minutes. You also experience improved energy levels and reduced cravings. Coconut can be added to food in the form of coconut sugar or coconut flour to lower glycemic index of foods that are rich in sugar and starch. A research published in 2003 in the British Journal of Nutrition shows that foods rich in starch and sugar such as brownies, muesli bars etc. did not increase the glucose levels in blood, when coconut flour or sugar was added to them. Coconut oil also boosts blood circulation and prevents diabetic neuropathy. 2-3 tablespoons of coconut oil taken daily reduces or reverses impaired circulation. When taken daily, coconut oil effectively eliminates nerve pain and the tingling sensation that occurs in extremities.
