My mahjong friend Brother Cheung, his wife boil corn silk every single day, the yellow hairy thread on the fresh corn, drink it like tea morning and evening. She say corn silk water lower blood sugar and reduce the swelling in the legs, old village wisdom, better than any hospital tablet. Brother Cheung also got the type 2 diabetes like me, he stop his metformin already two month, now only drink the corn silk water, he show me on WhatsApp his sugar machine number quite okay, but I notice his foot still a bit puff at night. Our group also keep sharing the video say corn silk can cure diabetes forever. Should I also stop my metformin and just drink the boiled corn silk water everyday instead? Is it true corn silk can cure my diabetes, and it help or no help my swollen feet?
