ERECO TEA/ 3 Natural Ways To Reverse High Blood Sugar Levels
A friend of mine recently went for a routine check-up, and his A1C came back above 6. The doctor told him, “You are officially diabetic.”
He was understandably scared. When he asked for an explanation, it was full of complicated medical terms that made little sense. Watching him struggle, I realized this is something many of us face, especially when we hear scary health results, taking medications, but not really understanding what’s happening inside the body. Before I break it down in the simplest language possible, here’s the good news: you can support your body naturally, targeting the root causes of lifestyle diseases like diabetes, insulin resistance, and chronic inflammation. Now, what does a high A1C reading actually mean? In summary:
What a High A1C Really Means
A high A1C means that you have high sugar levels in your bloodstream. This could be because your liver is releasing more blood into your bloodstream than your cells can use, or your cells are not responding properly to insulin signaling, or a combination of both factors.
Now, though these are contributing factors, they are not the root causes of high sugar levels in the blood. So what are the causes? Research says:
Insulin resistance: Because of poor cell activity, your cells aren’t absorbing glucose properly, leaving blood sugar levels high. Some other research says:
Fat deposits in the wrong places: Fat can accumulate around the pancreas, liver, and muscles, stressing insulin-producing cells, triggering excess glucose release, and blocking energy use in muscles, leading to fatigue.
Now, those are some of the causes, and I guess the big question is, what is the root cause? Insulin resistance occurs because something is not functioning as it should. Fat is being deposited in the wrong places because something is not working right. So what is actually happening? Just looking at the sedentary lifestyle, processed carbs, and chronic stress is a good place to start. However, do not forget to consider the alarming effect of chronic inflammation, because research has shown that chronic inflammation is the mother of many lifestyle diseases. It may be an interesting conversation to have with your health provider. Don't you think?
Medications often manage the symptoms but don’t address the root problem. This is where natural herbal solutions come in.
Herbal Allies for Healing
Certain herbs and teas have been shown to target these root issues naturally:
Gurmar (Gymnema sylvestre) Known as the “sugar destroyer,” gurmar supports healthy blood sugar by helping your body respond better to insulin and reducing sugar absorption from food.

Barberry Root (Berberine) Barberry root bark is rich in berberine, a powerful natural compound that helps regulate blood sugar, reduce insulin resistance, and support liver and pancreatic health. It also helps balance inflammation in the body.

Tulsi (Holy Basil) Tulsi is a remarkable adaptogen that fights inflammation, reduces stress-related blood sugar spikes, and supports overall metabolic health.

How to Incorporate These Teas
Drinking herbal teas made from gurmar, barberry root, and tulsi can be a simple, soothing daily habit. Not only do they support healthy blood sugar levels and reduce inflammation, but they also nourish your body naturally, helping you tackle lifestyle health challenges from the root.
The key is understanding your body and using natural remedies to address the cause, not just the symptoms. A cup of herbal tea every day can be a small but powerful step toward healthier, more balanced living.
How to Make Herbal Teas Part of Your Daily Routine
Incorporating these herbal teas is simple:
- Sip a cup of gurmar or Berberine tea after meals to help manage blood sugar naturally.
- Enjoy tulsi tea in the morning or evening to reduce stress and inflammation. You can add some turmeric and black pepper to the tea for more benefits.
- Make it a daily habit, you’re not just drinking tea, you’re nourishing your body at the root level.
