White Flour

Wheat is the most common uses of cereal in the world for the production of bread. It is a good source of energy. With its essential coating of bran, vitamins and minerals, it is an excellent health food building.

Wheat into flour is generally for use as food soil. However, refined wheat flour is a serious threat to the health of various processed foods used today for its delicious flavor, wheat flour (Maida) is particularly damaging. The colossal loss of vitamins and minerals in refined wheat flour has high incidence of constipation and other related disgestine disorders and nutritional disorders, particularly diabetes resulted. The consumption of flour is therefore an important contributing cause of diabetes and its anger when the disease has already developed.

White Salt

Sodium chloride or sodium chloride is an important factor in maintaining acid-base balance of the body. It is also important for the production of hydrochloric acid in the stomach. So while a certain amount of salt for the body is essential, it will be needed in very small quantities, ranging from 10 g to 15 per day.

Excessive use of salt will bring additional strain on the kidneys, high blood pressure, which is closely linked with causing diabetes. Excessive intake of salt promotes water retention in the body, which in time lead to the fact that obesity is a strong cause of diabetes. Too much salt is dangerous and therefore may promote or accelerate the onset of diabetes.

Salt (sodium chloride) and sodium are preservatives added to most processed foods. A sodium-controlled diet must avoid or limit salt and bread, cucumbers and many other processed convenience products.

Tea and coffee

Drinking tea and coffee is a serious threat to the health of diabetics. The principle alkaloid in both tea and coffee is caffeine. Caffeine is an addictive drug like cocaine to the extent that it stimulates the central nervous system. While these effects are of short duration, it was observed that they lead to the withdrawal symptoms of irritability, lethargy, headaches and anxiety. The daily intake of tea and coffee causes indigestion and gas formation, diarrhea and constipation.
