Considering your situation with an HbA1c of 11.5 and the challenges managing your diabetes, it seems you're dealing with significant imbalances that are affecting your quality of life. Dealing with neuropathy, retinopathy, and cataract while having digestive problems certainly complicates matters.
In Ayurveda, balancing the doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—is crucial, and your symptoms indicate Vata and Pitta imbalances. The frequent diarrhea and constipation, along with bloating, suggest your digestive fire, or Agni, is irregular. This could also be why blood sugar levels are difficult to stabilize.
First, addressing your diet is essential. Start incorporating a routine that stabilizes your Agni. Eat regular meals without skipping, starting your day with warm water to kickstart digestion. Opt for small, frequent meals rather than large meals. Reduce sugar and processed foods gradually. Integrate more complex carbs like whole grains, and increase fiber intake with vegetables like spinach and bitter gourd. These help in slowly releasing sugar and avoiding spikes.
Introduce spices like cinnamon, fenugreek, and turmeric to meals—known for their role in stabilizing blood sugar and strengthening digestion. Additionally, consider Triphala, a traditional Ayurvedic formulation effective for bowel regulation. You can take half a teaspoon with warm water before bed, helping with both constipation and diarrhea.
For cravings, try incorporating mediative practices or gentle yoga like pranayama, which calms the mind and reduces cravings by increasing discipline and balance. Address emotional stress through mindful activities to slow down sugar cravings. It might take time but persistence is key.
Furthermore, focus on maintaining a regular sleep schedule—ideally 7-8 hours, which aids in metabolic function and recovery. Ensure hydration throughout the day as dehydration exacerbates Vata issues, and limit caffeine consumption, which can aggravate both Vata and Pita.
Finally, working closely with your healthcare provider is imperative for managing insulin and any potential interactions with Ayurvedic treatments to ensure safety, especially with complications like neuropathy and retinopathy. Diabetes management is a multi-faceted issue requiring a holistic approach.
Implement these changes gradually to not overwhelm yourself, and remember, creating feasible habits rather than drastic changes makes a difference in long-term health management.
