Nutritional Notes: Rich in fiber, and minerals like magnesium.

Why Diabetes-Friendly? Chayote and quinoa have low glycemic indices (GI ~50-53), and the fiber-rich vegetables slow carbohydrate absorption, aiding blood sugar control.

General Tips for Dr. Sebi’s Alkaline Diet:

• Use only ingredients from Dr. Sebi’s Nutritional Guide, avoiding hybrid foods (e.g., seedless fruits, conventional wheat), animal products, and processed items.
• Drink 1 gallon of spring water daily to support detoxification and alkalinity.
• Avoid microwaving food, as it destroys nutrients. Use stovetop or oven preparation.
• Incorporate herbs like dandelion or burdock in teas or recipes for added detox benefits.
