Question

My cousin is tall but has a heavier weight, not appearing overweight. Recently, she has been experiencing dizziness and an unusually strong appetite. Her food intake has increased, but her weight has continued to drop. Some people suspect it might be diabetes.

Answer

Hello, there is indeed a connection between obesity and diabetes. To prevent and treat diabetes, you should follow these three ‘more’ and three ’less’ dietary rules:

  1. Drink more water and less soup. People with high blood uric acid levels and diabetics should drink more plain water and less meat soup, fish soup, chicken soup, hotpot soup, etc. The osmotic pressure of plain water is most suitable for dissolving harmful substances in the body. Drinking more water can dilute uric acid, accelerate excretion, and lower uric acid levels. Soup contains a large amount of purine, which not only does not dilute uric acid but can also lead to an increase in uric acid levels.
