Is tea good for diabetics?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Research suggests that green tea, turmeric tea, hibiscus tea, cinnamon tea, lemon balm tea, chamomile tea, and black tea may improve insulin sensitivity and offer impressive antidiabetic effects. Hence, they can be included in diet. Milk sugars are carbohydrates, particularly lactose, is not good but milk fats are good for diabetes. Hence, you may consume milk seperately in moderation but it is better to not add in tea.

I'm really concerned about needing to inject water when I'm unwell because both times it made me feel really cold, caused vomiting, and even my eyes went upwards. I'm worried about how to handle it if I get sick again and require another water inject. Does everyone experience these symptoms, or is this unusual?
Physician opinion is advised to the patient.

My mom has been struggling with thyroid issues and her doctors are recommending surgery. I'm really worried is surgery absolutely necessary in her case? How long might the recovery take if she goes through with it? Also, could you share some dos and don'ts she should follow right now to manage her condition better?
Thyroid surgery is needed for large goiters or cancer; recovery takes 2–3 weeks—follow meds, rest, and avoid strain.
