Naturally Found Plant Provides Multiple Medicinal Effects
Known as nopal in Mexico, the prickly pear cactus, which is naturally found in Arizona, Mexico and other parts of the American Southwest; has been shown to have multiple medicinal effects. The prickly pear can aid with diabetes, lower blood sugar levels and offer other health benefits writes professor of nutrition Winston F. Craig, Ph.D.
The ability for the prickly pear cactus (nopal) to lower blood sugar is actually nothing new. In traditional Mexican medicine, type-2 Diabetes is treated with nopal. According to Mexican researchers, a decline in blood sugar levels in people with non-insulin-dependent diabetes occurred as a result of being given broiled nopal stems.
Other research has shown that daily consumption of 250 grams of this plant will lower total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol levels.
Apparently, people in Mexico aren’t the only one’s who recognize the power of this plant. The cactus has also been used to treat whooping cough and asthma in places such as India.
What’s great about this treatment is the simplicity of using it. Prickly pear fruit and other elements of the cactus are edible as a jelly or jam, as a fruit or as a cooked dish.
The nopal is a great alternative for people coping with diabetes. Without causing any side effects or damage to the liver, this “miracle plant” can regulate blood sugar.
So why haven’t you heard about it before? Two reasons. One: Doctor’s aren’t given any courses on natural herbs in medical school. Two: This is a natural plant, not a chemical that can be portrayed as the best treatment available and sold to the public for large amount of money.
Because that’s exactly what Big Pharma is doing with conventional medications for treating diabetes, a solution like this would position them to lose billions of dollars.
Instead, they’d rather keep information like this buried deep where no one will find it and keep you spending money on things like insulin, which is portrayed to be your only option.
Folks, if you suffer from diabetes and high cholesterol I suggest you visit the Good Cause Wellness website and pick up some Organic Nopal Powder from Good Cause Wellness. Do not halt prescription drug use except under the direct supervision of a naturopathic physician.
