Great deed for the day. The usual messenger who visits me once in a while, I have taught about raw bitter melon fruit. He says he has been on the raw bitter melon fruit, but it is bitter and you sort of get tired of the bitterness. Enter the solution, bitter melon tea! It’s so easy to get into it. The popular brand is Charantia and it is everywhere in the city.
Dosage is simply 4 times a day. That is 1 tea after every meal. So 3 meals makes 3 cups of teas. And 1 cup just before sleeping. It’s so easy to control your blood sugar levels even if you get sick of raw bitter melon.
Why do I know the dosage? Let’s just say I know the most qualified and experienced people who can rightfully suggest how this bitter melon tea is used.
Bring a couple of tea bags with you all the time. Need something hot for breakfast? Use bitter melon tea. Need to socialize after lunch? Use bitter melon tea. Need to socialize after dinner? Drink bitter melon tea. Don’t be ashamed to ask for hot water in a cafe. If you must pay for their tea, just get hot water and use your bitter melon tea.
I think cafes should be more accommodating to diabetics and offer bitter melon tea on the menu! How about some public service huh? Think of bitter melon tea as social corporate responsibility.
