The global burden for type 2 diabetes in India is estimated to be 58 per cent from 51 million people, in the year 2010 to 87 million in the year 2030. The rising prevalence of diabetes and other noncommunicable diseases is due to factors like rapid urbanization, sedentary lifestyles, unhealthy diets, tobacco use, and increasing life expectancy. The most important risk factors responsible for diabetes are obesity and overweight. But, diabetes burden can be prevented or delayed by following a healthy diet and regular exercise. The figures are shocking and alarming.

  • Since clove has antidiabetic properties, on consuming clove oil, the postprandial insulin and glucose response mechanism are enhanced.
  • Antioxidants present in cloves are also vital in optimizing the function of the pancreas which is responsible for insulin production.
  • According to research, diabetic patients who have cloves on a day-to-day basis will be able to manage their blood sugar level. Because cloves have properties which function almost similar to insulin in helping you to lower your blood sugar levels.
  • The pancreas is the vital organ of the body which helps in insulin production. Cloves are loaded with polyphenol which can help promote the healthy functioning of your pancreas. Obesity can lead to type 2 diabetes and cloves have anti-obesity properties. Hence, having cloves may prevent weight gain and treat the symptoms of insulin resistance. So, just eat it now! Also, remember that you must not go overboard.
