A group of scientists from the University of Gezira conducted a study that showed that eating onions can effectively combat high blood sugar levels..

Type 2 diabetes is one of the most common and serious diseases. Taking medications and dieting is a fairly effective way to maintain normal blood sugar levels..

According to Planet Today, citing the Daily Express, the introduction to the diet of people with type 2 diabetes was able to positively affect blood glucose levels, lowering sugar levels to near normal levels..

“This effect of onions on the body is explained by the organic compounds that make up this vegetable, which significantly strengthen human health,” the study says..

Several dozen volunteers with diagnosed diabetes of the first and second degree were invited to conduct the experiment.. Conditionally, all participants were divided into three groups. The first group received a glass of water daily throughout the study period, the second received raw onion juice, and the third received conventional treatment..

The results of the study showed a steady decrease in blood sugar levels in participants from the second group - for almost 4 hours.. Researchers warn that eating onions will not completely replace diabetes medications, but it could be a good addition to a comprehensive approach to the treatment of this disease..
