SENIORS: 6 Food Hacks To Lower Blood Sugar FAST (Doctor Explains)

You don't always have to cut out carbs to control your diabetes. Sometimes, you just need to change how you eat them. In this video, Dr. Claire Whitmore reveals 6 science-backed food hacks that lower blood sugar spikes without medication. Learn why eating vegetables first creates a "fiber net" in your stomach, how cooling your rice turns it into a superfood, and why a simple walk after dinner works better than a walk at any other time.

IN THIS VIDEO:

Hack #1: Veggies First. Coat your stomach with fiber to slow glucose absorption.

Hack #2: Vinegar. Drink 1 tbsp of Apple Cider Vinegar to block sugar enzymes.

Hack #3: Post-Meal Walk. Move for 15 minutes to open glucose gates without insulin.

Hack #4: Cool Your Carbs. Turn pasta and rice into "Resistant Starch" by chilling them.

Hack #5: Cinnamon. Use Ceylon cinnamon to improve insulin sensitivity.

Hack #6: No Naked Carbs. Always pair starch with protein or fat to slow digestion.
