How to activate the Metabolic Master Switch in your cells for more balanced blood sugar
There’s a natural compound found in a number of plants that’s been used for centuries in Chinese Medicine to help treat a variety of ailments.
It has the ability to help activate an enzyme in cells called the Metabolic Master Switch. When this happens, your body can switch specific genes on and off to regulate your metabolism – at cellular level!
The results: Lower blood sugar levels, improved insulin sensitivity in cells, muscles use more glucose for energy, reduced sugar production in the liver and a delayed breakdown of carbohydrates in the digestive tract.
Swollen lower legs and feet could be serious so it´s best to know what´s behind it…
Heart failure and swollen feet
When the heart can´t pump blood the way it´s designed to, circulation to the furthest points of the body is reduced, causing water retention.
This is definitely a reason to go see your doctor about – especially if you don´t know what´s behind your swollen feet and ankles.
Liver disease and swollen ankles and feet
Blood fluid can leak into the lower legs and feet if your liver doesn´t produce enough albumin – a substance that insulates blood vessels and prevents leakage.
If this is the reason behind your swollen ankles and feet, it´s a warning sign of worse things to come if you don´t protect your liver – a definite reason to make that doc´s appointment.
Kidney disease and feet swelling
If your kidneys are not filtering your blood as they should, waste products accumulate in the lower legs and feet.
Another must to go to the doc…
Lymphedema and swelling of the feet
When your lymph nodes are not draining as they were designed to, you can have fluid build-up in the lower legs and feet.
Also a reason to get to the doc for treatment.
Blood clots and swelling of the lower legs
A blockage may be behind the fluid retention in your lower limbs.
An urgent visit to the doc is recommended.
These are the reasons you should go to the doc to find out what´s causing your swollen ankles and feet…
