How effective is sugar Ayurvedic treatment, and what are the best natural remedies?

Question

I have been diagnosed with high blood sugar, and I want to try sugar Ayurvedic treatment to regulate my sugar levels naturally. I have read that Ayurveda focuses on balancing digestion and insulin function, but I want to understand how it works.

From what I understand, Ayurveda considers diabetes (Madhumeha) as a metabolic disorder caused by Kapha and Pitta imbalances. But how does Ayurvedic sugar treatment help in reducing sugar levels naturally? Are there specific herbs like Vijaysar, Madhunashini, and Jamun that work to stabilize insulin and manage sugar metabolism?

I also want to know whether Ayurvedic treatments can reduce dependence on allopathic medication over time. Has anyone successfully managed their blood sugar levels using Ayurveda? What remedies and dietary modifications worked best for you?

Dr. Harsha Joy · Answer

Ayurvedic treatments for managing high blood sugar focus on balancing the doshas, particularly Kapha and Pitta, which play a role in metabolic functions. Herbs like Vijaysar, Madhunashini, and Jamun are commonly used in Ayurveda for their ability to regulate blood sugar by improving insulin sensitivity, supporting proper digestion, and reducing excess glucose in the blood. These herbs help stabilize sugar metabolism and support the pancreas' function. Ayurveda also emphasizes dietary changes, such as reducing refined sugars and incorporating bitter and cooling foods, alongside lifestyle modifications like regular exercise and stress management. Over time, Ayurvedic treatments, when followed consistently, may reduce reliance on allopathic medication, though it’s always best to monitor your condition with a healthcare provider. Many individuals have successfully managed their blood sugar levels with a combination of Ayurvedic remedies, dietary adjustments, and exercise, leading to better long-term health outcomes.
