Introduction
Propolis and walnuts are considered beneficial for repairing pancreatic islet cells and improving islet function. Foods rich in dietary fiber and high-quality protein can promote gastrointestinal motility, accelerate food digestion, reduce blood glucose fluctuations, and prevent sudden increases in insulin demand. Ensuring adequate sleep helps maintain hormonal balance, increases cortisol levels, improves insulin sensitivity, and enhances the function of pancreatic beta cells.

Generally, improving islet function can be achieved through various approaches, including consuming specific foods, regular exercise, adequate sleep, supplementing specific nutrients, and medication therapy. The details are as follows:

1. Consuming Specific Foods

Bee propolis and walnuts are considered beneficial for repairing islet cells and improving islet function. Foods rich in dietary fiber and high-quality protein can promote gastrointestinal motility, accelerate food digestion, reduce blood glucose fluctuations, and avoid sudden increases in insulin demand.

2. Regular Exercise

Appropriate aerobic exercises, such as jogging, aerobics, swimming, etc., are beneficial for promoting metabolism and accelerating the recovery of islet cell function. Regular strength training to increase muscle mass is also recommended, as muscle tissue consumes more energy than fat tissue, helping to improve the basal metabolic rate.

3. Adequate Sleep

Ensuring sufficient sleep helps maintain hormonal balance, increases cortisol levels, improves insulin sensitivity, and enhances the function of pancreatic beta cells.

4. Supplementing Specific Nutrients

Supplementing nutrients such as chromium, magnesium, and vitamin D can improve insulin sensitivity and promote pancreatic beta cell function, thereby enhancing islet function.

5. Medication Therapy

When islet function is severely impaired, leading to persistently elevated blood glucose levels in the body and symptoms such as polydipsia, polyphagia, and weight loss, medication therapy may be used under a doctor's guidance, such as Metformin Hydrochloride Tablets, Repaglinide Tablets, Glipizide Tablets, etc.

In daily life, maintaining a positive and optimistic attitude and reducing stress is also recommended to help improve islet function.
