This golden root, it’s not actually golden. My grandma says it’s golden because she strongly believes in the healing power of this root.

I know you are probably thinking “well it is just horseradish”! And yes it is. But blended with the right ingredients it can become golden. Grandma’s words.
Before I introduce you to the recipe for this remedy, just little scientific facts about diabetes. What it is and how does affects the body.
Maybe you already have this condition, or maybe you have just been diagnosed with it. It is always a good idea to know how your body reacts to this condition, generally speaking.
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic systemic metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia, i.e. permanent increase in blood glucose levels.
It is generally conditioned by hereditary factors and occurs as a consequence of reduced secretion or reduced biological action of the hormone insulin, or a combination of these two factors.
This deficiency impedes the exchange of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in the body (which is manifested by characteristic symptoms). And after a long time affects the structure and function of blood vessels, nerves, and other vital organs and organ systems.
Diabetes is nowadays one of the most common endocrine diseases, with a tendency to increase (especially in the developed countries of the world). It is a consequence of the modern lifestyle and the increasing number of external etiological causes, among which gaining weight stands out.
The symptoms and signs depend on the blood sugar level, but people with type 2 diabetes, despite having high blood glucose, may not have any symptoms at first. In patients with type 1 diabetes, the symptoms usually manifest more quickly and in a more severe form.

Horseradish root should not be peeled. Wash it well and leave it soaking in a bowl with water and baking soda, for at least 10 minutes. Then rinse it again under a strong stream of cold water.

After you cleaned it well you can use the horseradish. You can chop it finely, or you can use it ground or grated.
Chop the garlic as well. Mix the horseradish and garlic, then put them in a glass jar with a lid and pour the beer over them. Close the jar and leave it in a dark and cool place for 10 days.
