Recent research suggest that the blood sugar levels
currently thought of as normal may actually still be high enough to cause
significant damage to organs over time.
An article I read today summed up the research, which was done in
Australia, which demonstrated that when blood glucose was over 100mg/dl in a
4-year study areas of the participant’s brains actually shrunk by 6-10%. This striking number demonstrates that even
if your blood sugar level does not make you diabetic or pre-diabetic keeping
the amount of sugar in your blood low should still provide generous health
benefits. In addition, the areas of the
brain that are primarily affected, the hippocampus and amygdala, are areas that
increase in size with regular meditation.
