TIANA Organic Coconut Flour can help you to lower your cholesterol levels, prevent and treat diabetes and heart disease and stroke.
Most cardiovascular problems result from arteriosclerosis that is caused by the accumulation of fatty deposits cholesterol and blood clots on the inner walls of the arteries which narrow and weaken the artery walls.
Many studies have demonstrated that dietary fiber protects against heart attacks and strokes. Research showed that dietary fibre in oat bran and coconut flour helps reduce cholesterol, thus reducing the risk of heart disease.
Reducing cholesterol levels in your diet can be easy with our TIANA coconut flour as it contains a high content of dietary fibre, which is clinically proven to lower cholesterol level as part of a healthy diet.
How to reduce your blood pressure?
Blood pressure is determined by the force and volume of the heart output at each beat and resistance offered by the larger blood vessels. It reaches a maximum as the heart contracts (systole) and a minimum as the heart rests between beats (diastole). High blood pressure is a sustained rise above normal levels.
When blood pressure is consistently higher than it should be, it puts a huge strain on your arteries. The walls of the arteries become thicker, so that they narrow and become less elastic. It is very important to follow a diet that will not accelerate the build-up of fatty deposits inside the arteries. Prolonged high blood pressure can damage the arteries and lead to premature heat failure and stroke.
Blood pressure is influenced by dietary fibre. Even a modest increase in fibre intake results in a significant decrease in blood pressure. It is highly recommended to eat healthy organic foods which are high in fibre, antioxidants and vitamins.
Cooking or baking with TIANA Organic Coconut Flour which is rich in dietary fibre, calcium, iron and low in carbohydrates can assist you in reducing your blood pressure.
How to regulate blood sugar and protect against diabetes
Another risk factor affected by fibre is diabetes.
The body’s intake of sugar is controlled by the hormone insulin, which is produced by the pancreas. Too little sugar in the blood leads to light-headedness and tiredness; too much leads to diabetes.
Blood sugar is a very important issue for anyone who is concerned about diabetes and weight-loss.
Carbohydrates in our food are broken down in the digestive tract and then converted into blood sugar. If blood sugar rises above the level required for normal function, then more insulin is produced. (Insulin is a hormone that transfers glucose from the blood into the cells where it is burned to produce energy.)
Food that contains sugar and refined flour is a cause of a rapid rise in blood sugar. Since high blood pressure can lead to a coma, insulin will be pumped into the blood stream to avoid a coma. If insulin is produced in the necessary amount, blood sugar is soon brought back to a normal level. However, if insulin is not produced quickly and in the necessary amount, or the cells become desensitised to the action of insulin (insulin resistance) then blood sugar can remain high for extended periods and such condition leads to diabetes and obesity amongst other health problems.
Dietary fibre can help to moderate swings in blood sugar by slowing down the absorption of sugar into the blood stream. This helps bring blood sugar and insulin levels under control. The studies have shown that coconut fibre is very effective in moderating blood sugar and insulin levels and hence protect against diabetes.
Using TIANA Organic Coconut Flour in your healthy eating plan can promote weight loss, which is very important - diabetes is more likely to affect adults who are overweight.
People with diabetes are much more prone to heart disease than those who do not suffer from diabetes. Dietary fibre is known to increase insulin sensitivity, thus can reduce symptoms associated with diabetes and consequently, the risk of heart disease.
Doctors advise on the right kind of diet as a very important element because eating right foods can help to prevent further build-up of fatty deposits in the arteries and make blood clots less likely to occur. Anyone with cardiovascular disease should be encouraged to eat lots of fibre.
TIANA Organic Coconut Flour is the richest source of dietary calorie free fiber, which together with fresh fruit and vegetables, should of a be the mainstay of a health diet.
