Hello
Firstly don't stop all at time it will increase your cravings again so little try to avoid the carbs intake whenever you feel like eating just have masala buttermilk or vegetable salad with seasoning but slowly avoid seasoning also.
Take protein and fibre food intake so cravings will reduce
As its takes long time for digestion
1) syrup cardorium plus 5ml-5ml-5ml with 5ml water after food
2) tab BGR -34 1-0-1 before food
Take flax seeds
Avoid oily fried items processed foods coffee aerated juices, rice, fruit juice.
Try to take more vegetables than fruits
Do Walk hour in a day in morning and evening
Thank you

Hello Marriam,
Since you are currently taking **Metformin** and **Spirocard**, I would like to know if you have undergone tests such as **fasting blood glucose** and **postprandial (PP) blood sugar**. Kindly share your reports for a more precise assessment.
Based on your symptoms, Ayurveda suggests that your **Agni (digestive strength)** is imbalanced. To improve this, you need to focus on lifestyle modifications.
### **Recommendations:**
✅ **Do:**
- Include **fruits and sprouts** in your breakfast.
- Follow a **millet-based diet** for better digestion.
- Have **an early dinner** to support metabolism.
- Maintain a **consistent sleep schedule**.
- Drink **herbal tea** made with **½ teaspoon of Triphala powder**.
- Practice **yoga** postures such as **Vajrasana, Bhujangasana, and Padhastasana**.
- Perform **pranayama** techniques like **Bhramari Pranayama** and **Bhastrika Pranayama**.
- Consume **green juice made from neem and bitter gourd** in the morning.
❌ **Avoid:**
- **Dairy products**
- **Sugary foods**
- **Non-vegetarian food**
- **White rice**
🚰 **Stay hydrated** throughout the day.
Please share more details about your reports so I can provide the best possible guidance. Looking forward to your response!
