The Connection Between Diabetes and Heart Health — And How Atta Ghar Can Help
When people think about diabetes, they often focus only on blood sugar levels. But diabetes is not just about sugar. It is a condition that can affect your entire body — and one of the biggest risks it brings is to your heart health.
Studies show that diabetics are two to four times more likely to develop heart disease compared to non-diabetics. The good news is that with the right diet and lifestyle, you can reduce these risks significantly. At Atta Ghar, our Diabetic Atta and Diabetic Daliya are designed to support not just sugar control but also long-term cardiovascular health.
How Diabetes Affects the Heart
-
High Blood Sugar Damages Arteries
Consistently high glucose levels can damage the lining of blood vessels, making them harder and narrower. This leads to restricted blood flow and higher chances of blockages. -
Increased Risk of High Blood Pressure
Diabetes often goes hand in hand with hypertension, which puts additional strain on the heart and blood vessels. -
High Cholesterol Levels
Many diabetics also struggle with high LDL (bad cholesterol) and low HDL (good cholesterol), increasing the risk of plaque buildup in arteries. -
Obesity and Insulin Resistance
Uncontrolled diabetes often leads to weight gain and insulin resistance, which further increases the burden on the heart.
The Role of Diet in Protecting Heart Health
While medication and exercise are important, diet plays a central role in managing both diabetes and heart health. The right foods can:
-
Lower blood sugar naturally
-
Improve cholesterol balance
-
Reduce inflammation in the body
-
Support weight management
-
Provide essential nutrients like magnesium, potassium, and antioxidants
How Atta Ghar Supports Heart Health
1. Low Glycemic Index Grains
Our diabetic atta and daliya are made with ragi, oats, barley, and chana dal, all of which have a low GI. This prevents sugar spikes that can damage blood vessels over time.
2. Rich in Fiber
Dietary fiber lowers cholesterol by reducing LDL levels and improving digestion. Barley and oats in our blends are rich in soluble fiber, which is known for supporting cardiovascular health.
3. Natural Weight Control
High-fiber, low-GI meals keep you full longer, reducing the urge to overeat. This helps with weight control — one of the most important aspects of reducing heart disease risk in diabetics.
4. Free from Preservatives and Chemicals
Many commercial flours contain additives or are stored for months before consumption. Our atta and daliya are freshly milled after your order, retaining natural nutrients essential for heart and metabolic health.
