Blood Sugar Balance
Sugar No Be Friend: Why Your Sugar Spikes Even When You “Eat Small”

My people,
Let me tell you a quick gist about Mama Bisi from Ibadan. She kept saying,
“Ah ah… but I only drank small pap this morning. Why my sugar still high?”

Many of us don’t know that it’s not only the food—stress dey inside the matter too .

1️⃣ Why Stress + Carbs = Sudden Sugar Spikes

When you’re rushing in Lagos traffic, worrying about bills, or arguing with NEPA 😅—your body releases stress hormones like cortisol.
These hormones push more sugar into your bloodstream to “give you energy,” even if you didn’t eat much.

Then, when you take easy-to-digest carbs like:
– Pap
– Bread
– Rice
– Garri
– Noodles
…your sugar shoots up even faster because stress has already “opened the gate.”

So it’s not just the food. It’s the stress + carbs combo.

2️⃣ A Simple Nigerian Food Swap That Works Like Magic
Swap pap for unripe plantain porridge (no frying). Why?
– Lower glycemic effect
– More fiber
– Slower sugar release
– Keeps you full
– Excellent for gut health

This single swap has helped many Nigerians stabilize their sugar morning routine.

3️⃣ Your Internal Antioxidant System: The Hidden Protector
Your body fights daily inflammation from:
– High sugar
– Stress
– Poor sleep
– Pollution
– Alcohol

To handle all this, the body uses its master antioxidant — glutathione — to protect your cells and support insulin function.
But chronic stress + high sugar reduces glutathione, making sugar spikes worse.

4️⃣ Natural Ways to Support Better Sugar Control
✔ Add bitter leaf, garden egg, or walnuts into your weekly diet
✔ Reduce late-night eating
✔ Drink enough water
✔ Deep breathing 5 minutes daily
✔ Prioritize high-quality protein

And if you want to give your body the best raw material to produce glutathione naturally, that’s where a clinically studied whey protein isolate like Immunocal becomes important. It provides cysteine, the exact building block the body uses to make more glutathione.

My people, when glutathione is up, your sugar control improves.

Nov. 21, 2025 Topic — Urea & Creatinine (Kidney Function Test)

Last month, a woman in the group shared how her husband kept having headaches, tiredness, and swollen feet. He thought it was “stress from work.” But after doing a simple kidney function test, the doctor told him his creatinine was high — meaning his kidneys had been struggling quietly for months.

Many Nigerians are walking around with tired kidneys and don’t know it because the early signs look like “normal stress.”

Today, let’s break down kidney health in the simplest way possible.

WHAT UREA & CREATININE REALLY MEAN (SIMPLIFIED)
Your kidneys act like water filters in your home.
When they struggle, “waste” builds up.

Creatinine
● A waste product from your muscles.
If it builds up in the blood → kidneys are not filtering well.

Urea (BUN)
● Another waste product from protein breakdown.
High → kidneys are not clearing waste properly or you’re dehydrated.

WHEN VALUES ARE HIGH
High urea or creatinine may mean:
● Early or moderate kidney strain
● Severe dehydration
● Too much painkiller use
● High blood pressure
● Uncontrolled diabetes
● Herbal mixtures damaging the kidneys
● Excess red meat intake
● Low water intake
● Long-term antibiotic or malaria drug use

WHEN VALUES ARE LOW
Low values sometimes mean:
● Low protein intake
● Muscle loss
● Malnutrition
● Overhydration

Low is not as dangerous as high — but still gives clues about nutrition.

🚫 MYTHS VS FACTS
Myth : “If you can urinate well, your kidneys are fine.”
Fact : Many people with kidney damage still urinate normally.

Myth : “Herbal cleansing drinks detox the kidney.”
Fact : Some herbal bitters worsen kidney inflammation and raise creatinine.

Myth : “Kidney disease only affects old people.”
Fact : Young Nigerians with desk jobs, sweetened drinks, and stress are increasingly affected.

WHY YOU SHOULD TEST EARLY
Kidney damage gives very quiet early symptoms, such as:
● Fatigue
● Headaches
● Mild leg swelling
● Foamy urine
● Night-time urination
● Lower back soreness

These are often mistaken for “just stress.”
A simple test can detect issues long before symptoms become serious.

NIGERIAN NUTRITION TIPS FOR HEALTHY KIDNEYS*
Eat more (kidney-friendly):
● Garden egg + groundnut
● Cabbage, carrots, cucumber
● Whole grains
● Okra soup
● Watermelon
● Ugu-rich soups
● Plantain (boiled, not fried)
● Reduce (kidney stressors):
● Too much red meat
● Excess seasoning cubes
● High-salt foods (suya spice, processed noodles, smoked fish)
● Excess soft drinks
● “Bitters,” agbo, and strong herbal mixes
● Fried foods

And please — drink water steadily, not only when you’re thirsty.

STRESS & SLEEP HACK FOR NIGERIAN HOMES
Try the “After 8 pm slow-down rule”:
● Dim bright lights
● Reduce arguments/confrontational conversations
● Avoid heavy eating
● Take 5 minutes of deep breathing
● Prepare for bed intentionally

This reduces cortisol — which indirectly protects your kidneys.

SUPPORT :
Immunocal helps raise glutathione — a natural antioxidant that supports kidney cells under oxidative stress.
It does not replace treatment but supports the body’s detox and repair functions.

TAKE ACTION
If you’ve not checked your kidney function this year, let this be your reminder.
A simple test today can prevent complications tomorrow.

– Ovulation: Knowing Your Fertile Window

Storyline :
Chiamaka was frustrated. Every month, she trusted her fertility app, but somehow she kept missing her fertile window. Then she discovered a powerful truth: her body was already giving her signals. By learning to watch her cervical mucus changes and using simple LH strips, she finally caught her fertile window at the right time. That small shift gave her confidence—and a renewed sense of control on her TTC journey. 💕

Lesson :
Apps are helpful tools, but your body is the best guide. When you learn to tune into your natural signs—like cervical mucus, basal body temperature, and ovulation test strips—you gain clarity and peace of mind.

Takeaway :
Your body whispers clues every day. Don’t ignore them—trust and track your body.

The Scripture:
“Your eyes will see your Teacher. And your own ears will hear a word behind you saying: ‘This is the way. Walk in it.’ ” — Isaiah 30:20-21 (NWT)
👉 Just as God guides our steps, He has also designed our bodies to guide us with signs.

Daily Boosts:
- Food Tip : Snack on pumpkin seeds 🥜—they’re rich in zinc, which supports ovulation and healthy egg quality.
- Stress Tip: Try a 2-minute body scan. Close your eyes, breathe slowly, and mentally relax each body part from head to toe.
- Hydration : Sip on warm herbal teas (like ginger or peppermint) for gentle hydration and calm.
- Immunocal Tip: Fertile-quality cervical mucus depends on good protein structure and antioxidants to keep it healthy and protective for s***m. Immunocal whey protein isolate provides cysteine to boost glutathione—the body’s master antioxidant—helping maintain the quality of cervical mucus and overall reproductive health.

Scripture & Science Sunday – Sept 21, 2025

Seasons of waiting can feel heavy. But what if Scripture + nutrition could give your womb both hope and healing?

Scripture for the Day
“For I well know the thoughts that I am thinking toward you,” declares Jehovah, “thoughts of peace, and not of calamity, to give you a future and a hope.” – Jeremiah 29:11 (NWT)

✨ When the wait feels endless, remember: God has not forgotten you. His timing carries peace, not despair.

Nutrition for the Day
Just as His Word nourishes your spirit, fruits rich in Vitamin C (like mangoes, pawpaw, and oranges) nourish your body by:
* Supporting hormonal balance
* Boosting your immune system
* Helping your body absorb iron from leafy greens (important for healthy cycles)
* Small, daily additions of these fruits can strengthen your womb while you wait with faith.

Practical Action
* Add a serving of fruit to your breakfast or snack today.
* As you eat, whisper a prayer: “Father, nourish my womb and my faith as I wait on You.”

Faith + Food Reflection
Hope isn’t passive — it’s active. Each time you eat what nourishes your womb, you’re aligning your body with the promises you pray for.

Takeaway
Your season of waiting is not wasted. In God’s time, waiting becomes preparation. Pairing faith with womb-friendly foods is one way to prepare in hope.

Wednesday, Sept 17 – The Misdiagnosed Yeast Infection

Ngozi had been treated 3 times for “yeast infection” because of her constant itching and discharge. But no matter the cream or tablet, the symptoms kept coming back.

Finally, her doctor requested a High Vaginal Swab (HVS).

The test showed it wasn’t yeast at all—it was bacterial vaginosis (BV). The treatment was completely different.

👉🏾 Without the right test, she could have gone in circles for months.

Lesson :
Not all discharge is “infection.”

Yeast (Candida albicans) → a fungus, grows when the balance in the va**na is disrupted. It often shows up as “Candida species: high growth” on results.

Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) → caused by an overgrowth of bacteria, especially Gardnerella va**nalis. You may see “Gardnerella spp: heavy growth” or “mixed flora suggestive of BV.”

STIs (like chlamydia, gonorrhea) → bacteria passed sexually, may show as “positive growth for…” with the specific organism named.

🧾 How to Understand Your Lab Results (Simplified):
* “Scanty growth” → very little detected, may not be significant.
* “Moderate growth” → worth noting, especially if symptoms match.
* “Heavy/High growth” → confirms this organism is driving your symptoms and needs treatment.
* If both Candida and BV bacteria are listed, it means you may have a mixed infection — treatment must cover both.

This is why self-medicating can fail. A cream for yeast won’t treat BV. And antibiotics for BV can worsen yeast!

Takeaway :
👉🏾 If you (or someone you know) keeps treating “infection” but it won’t go away, ask for an HVS test .
It saves you stress, money, and long-term complications.

Call to Action (CTA):
“Don’t just guess, test! Share this post with a sister, friend, or daughter who keeps struggling with recurrent discharge—it may save her from years of silent suffering.”
