Try adding some of the fresh, zesty root to stir fries, soups or fish dishes, or steep 1/8 tsp of fresh grated ginger in hot water to make a therapeutic tea.

However, eating carbohydrates that consist of simple sugars such as baked good, cookies and cakes influence blood glucose and insulin levels. Simple sugars are digested very quickly, which can cause blood sugar and insulin levels to spike.
An insulin overdose may cause sudden and severe nausea. Also, extreme hunger may occur as well. When extreme hunger is felt, individuals should drink fruit juice or eat candy to see if symptoms improve. Many diabetics keep glucose tablets handy for such situations, and these can also be consumed to raise blood sugar.
