Mighty “Aztec Grain” CONQUERS Diabetes

By Jack Taylor Posted February 20, 2020

Dear Turapür Today Reader,

Too often, living with diabetes means following a strict set of rules – and you don’t get to pick them. Mainstream docs do.

Shortly after you’re diagnosed, they’ll order you to skip certain foods and keep an eye on your numbers… to prick your fingers and sweat yourself silly on the treadmill…

And no matter how well you do, they’ll NEVER be satisfied.

But, friend, there’s a better way to defeat diabetes.

It’s a unique grain, harvested since ancient times, that helped Aztec warriors stay fierce and battle-ready… and as modern research shows, it helps REVERSE high blood sugar!

Amaranthus caudatus, or amaranth, is a “pseudo-grain” native to South and Central America, where native civilizations relied on it for hundreds of years.

Back then, Aztec warriors and kings believed that the grain had magical powers, and they regularly used it in their ancient rituals… only stopping when Spanish conquistadors arrived and made the practice illegal.

Those invaders burned every crop in sight, and amaranth was “lost” for centuries…

But now, the mighty “Aztec grain” is FINALLY making a comeback!

Over the past few years, this nutrient-rich grain has slowly inched its way onto the health food scene – and now, modern research finds that amaranth may BEAT BACK diabetes!

In the study, published in the journal Nutrients, researchers analyzed the effects of amaranth extract on lab rats with diabetes – and believe it or not, they saw results IMMEDIATELY.

After just one mega-dose of amaranth extract (2,000 milligrams per kilogram of body weight), rats getting amaranth extract showed improved glucose tolerance.

In other words, their bodies were better able to process sugar – meaning that the substance was easily absorbed OUT of the bloodstream and INTO the cells that need it, helping lower the rodents’ blood sugar.

Now, when you’ve got diabetes, that process of glucose absorption is inhibited… effectively TRAPPING sugar in your blood and FORCING your readings higher and higher.

When that happens, you might experience issues like increased thirst or urination, blurry vision, or numbness in your feet – and that’s just the start.

As your doc’s probably warned you, diabetes and high blood sugar can also up your odds of deadly heart attack, stroke, and kidney damage…

But with the ancient “Aztec grain” amaranth, you can STOP these issues in their tracks.

The same study found that a lower dose of amaranth extract was also effective at treating rats with diabetes – improving their glucose tolerance, HbA1c levels, and insulin secretion after just three weeks!

Researchers credit these diabetes-beating benefits to amaranth activating proteins related to insulin release… and while this was just a rat study, you could see similar changes for yourself.

All you have to do is try amaranth.

Despite its ancient origins, this grain is still up-and-coming in the “superfood” market – so you’re most likely to find it in organic markets and health shops, as well as online through retailers like Amazon.

Like other grains, amaranth should be cooked before consuming – and from there, it can be used in a variety of sweet and savory recipes.

You could even opt for amaranth flour and bake it into your favorite treats!
