Curry leaves: Curry leaves is a naturally added in Asian and mainly Indian cooking  almost daily. Curry leaves is a traditional and reliable one to reduce the symptoms of diabetes and help to treat the insulin within the body. There are some organic compounds within these leaves which inhibit the breakdown of starches into simple sugars like glucose which is one the cause for diabetic flare-ups.  Apart from using the fresh raw leaves, we can dry the leaves and make into powder. Take ½ spoon of this powder mixing with butter milk or in water drink it twice a day which will help you to control type II diabetes.
