Alcohol l Raises HDL l Lowers insulin concentration and improves insulin sensitivity But l Raises blood pressure l These findings are true for whites. Blacks (Afro American ) and Hispanics do not show this relationship l Studies on Indian populations have not been done Ref : Freiberg MS, Cabral HJ, Heeren TC, et al.

Some Indian remedies : methi seed • It is an herb and a spice • Fenugreek contains an active ingredient of blood glucose control an active ingredient for blood cholesterol control • The typical range of intake for diabetes or cholesterol-lowering is 5– 30 grams with each meal or 15– 90 grams all at once with one meal. • Use of more than 100 grams of fenugreek seeds daily can cause intestinal upset and nausea.
