2. Can people with diabetes drink honey?

Diabetes is a metabolic disorder in which substances in the body cause high blood sugar, causing extremely serious complications such as heart disease, kidney failure, limb necrosis, blindness... Therefore, in people with diabetes, it is very important to control the amount of sugar tolerated in the body. If the control is good, the patient can completely live as well as a normal person.
Honey is one of the substances that can increase the blood sugar of diabetics. So can diabetics drink honey, and how should it be taken? Although honey contains a large amount of sugar, and doctors do not recommend honey for diabetics. But people with diabetes can still use honey in lower amounts than normal people if the patient's condition is not overweight or obese. Diabetics have a large body, BMI> 23kg / m2, abstaining from sweets, including abstaining from honey is indispensable to protect health. Patients with normal body condition can still use honey in a small amount of about 5ml of pure honey diluted with water for use.
In some cases, diabetics take an overdose of hypoglycemic drugs. Making the patient fall into a state of unconsciousness, at this time honey becomes an extremely good medicine. At that time, drinking honey with a sufficient amount helps to increase the patient's blood sugar rapidly, limiting the death rate for the patient. This is a safe, effective and simple solution that every family with diabetes needs to keep in mind.
