Introduction
Managing blood sugar levels is crucial for individuals with diabetes, but did you know that some natural ingredients can help support this process? Lemon and celery root are two powerful foods that can play a significant role in regulating blood sugar levels. Both of these ingredients have been used in traditional medicine for centuries due to their health-boosting properties. In this article, we’ll explore how lemon and celery root can be combined to create a natural remedy that supports blood sugar control, along with how to prepare and incorporate it into your daily routine.
Ingredients
1 medium-sized celery root (celeriac)
Juice of 1 fresh lemon
2 cups of water
1 teaspoon of honey or stevia (optional for sweetness)
Instructions
Prepare the Celery Root:
Peel the celery root and cut it into small cubes. Celery root has a tough exterior, so make sure to remove the skin thoroughly.
Boil the Celery Root:
In a saucepan, add the cut celery root cubes and pour in 2 cups of water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Let it cook for about 15-20 minutes or until the celery root becomes tender.
Extract the Lemon Juice:
While the celery root is cooking, cut the lemon in half and extract the juice, making sure to remove any seeds. If you prefer a milder flavor, you can use just half of the lemon.
Combine the Ingredients:
Once the celery root is tender, strain the water and place the cooked celery root in a blender or food processor. Add the fresh lemon juice and blend until smooth. You can add a teaspoon of honey or stevia if you prefer sweetness.
Serve:
Pour the mixture into a glass and enjoy. You can drink this remedy once a day, preferably in the morning or before meals to help regulate blood sugar levels throughout the day.
