A great home remedy for lowering blood glucose is coffee tincture; however, some medicinal plants, such as the pawpaw and the São Caetano melon, can also be used in the form of tea to help control levels of blood sugar.
However, in the case of diabetes, it is important to maintain the doctor's recommended treatment, and these natural treatments should only be used as a supplement.

Coffee tincture
Coffee has medicinal properties that naturally decrease the rate of glucose in the blood and therefore can be used as a complementary form in the treatment of diabetes. Coffee can also be used as a form of prevention of type 2 diabetes, but to achieve this benefit, it is necessary to drink 3 to 4 cups of unsweetened coffee per day.
Ingredients
- 10 grams of raw coffee beans
- 100 ml of cereal alcohol or 100 ml of 40% vodka
Method of preparation
Place the coffee beans in a dark glass jar, as in a beer bottle, and add the cereal alcohol or vodka and seal well. Place inside a dark bag, like the bread bag, or wrap the pot with a dishcloth and keep it stored inside a cupboard. Shake the tincture every day, and after 5 days, strain and use only the liquid part. Always keep the tincture tightly closed in a dark environment.
Take 1 teaspoon of this diluted tincture in a little water always before going to bed.
Home remedy with Melon-de-São-Caetano
São Caetano melon is a fruit with a strong hypoglycemic property that is able to avoid excess blood sugar, functioning as a natural regulator of glycemia. For this, the São Caetano melon can be consumed in its natural form as fruit or added in juices or vitamins, for example.
