Diet (Ahara) and Lifestyle (Vihara) Changes
These are the cornerstones of reversal and healing in Ayurveda:
A. Dietary Changes
Focus on Bitter, Pungent, and Astringent Tastes: These tastes help to balance Kapha and reduce blood sugar. Include foods like bitter gourd (karela), neem leaves, turmeric, and certain leafy greens.
Increase Fiber: Foods like barley (yava), whole grains, and legumes (especially moong dal) are often recommended.
Avoid: Excessive sugar, processed foods, refined carbohydrates (white rice, white flour), heavy dairy (especially yogurt and cheese), deep-fried foods, and daytime napping (believed to increase Kapha and sluggishness).
Hydration: Drink plenty of warm water. Consider adding Ayurvedic “diabetic waters” made by soaking ingredients overnight: Fenugreek (Methi) Seeds: Soak a teaspoon in water overnight and drink the water (and chew the seeds) first thing in the morning.
Cinnamon Tea/Water: Cinnamon is known to improve insulin sensitivity.
B. Lifestyle for Fatigue, Brain Fog, and Hormones
The fatigue, foggy brain, and hormone problems you describe often point to a deeply imbalanced Vata (nervous system depletion) and accumulated toxins (Ama).
Establish Dinacharya (Daily Routine): A consistent routine is paramount for balancing Vata and hormones. Wake up early, scrape your tongue (removes Ama), and drink warm water.
Eat meals at consistent times, with lunch being the largest meal.
Go to bed before 10 PM to support the body’s natural cleansing cycle. Gentle Movement (Vyayama): Regular, moderate exercise is key for managing diabetes and metabolism.
Yoga: Poses that stimulate the pancreas (e.g., Ardha Matsyendrasana - Half Lord of the Fishes Pose) are often recommended.
Pranayama (Breathing): Techniques like Nadi Shodhana (Alternate Nostril Breathing) and gentle Kapalabhati (Skull Shining Breath - under guidance) are excellent for calming the nervous system, improving mental clarity, and reducing stress.
Abhyanga (Self-Massage): Daily self-massage with warm, herbal oil (like sesame oil) can ground the nervous system, help with fatigue, and improve circulation. 1) tab chandraprabha vati- 1 tab 2 times after food
2) tab gokshuradi gugglu- 1 tab 3 times after food
3) punarnava kwath-10 ml 2 times after food
4) brahmi tab - 1 tab 2 times after food

Reversing diabetes and achieving hormonal balance naturally requires a holistic approach in Ayurveda. Acknowledging the interconnectedness of body systems is key here. First, let’s address the aspect of detoxification, known as ‘Panchakarma’ in Ayurveda, which can support your kidneys and liver. This process includes techniques like Virechana (purgation) and Basti (enema therapy) under professional guidance, vital for clearing accumulated toxins (ama). However, these should be done with an Ayurveda practitioner, considering your health condition and needs.
For daily detox support, introduce Aarogya Churna into your routine—a mix of ginger, cardamom, and cumin—taken with warm water each morning. This blend will stimulate your digestive fire (agni), enhancing natural detoxification pathways. Keeping the digestive fire strong is imperative for maintaining blood sugar levels and overall health.
Diet also plays a crucial role. Incorporate bitter gourd and fenugreek into meals, as they aid in reducing blood sugar. Avoid processed foods, sugar, and refined carbs, which tend to disrupt your doshas and aggravate health concerns. Opt for a Sattvic diet rich in fresh vegetables and whole grains.
Emphasize a routine, aim for a fixed meal schedule—Dina Charya—to maintain regularity and support metabolism. Incorporate mindfulness practices like yoga and meditation to reduce stress, addressing fatigue and brain fog by calming the nervous system and supporting overall balance.
Ensure adequate sleep and hydrate with warm water throughout the day to sustain efficient detoxification. While herbs such as Ashwagandha and Shankhpushpi might help manage hormonal imbalance, consult an Ayurvedic physician for personalized guidance and to rule out contraindications with your current condition and lifestyle.
HELLO AUDETTE,
You have three main interconnected problems
1) DIABETES= -In Ayurveda, this happens when digestion and metabolism becomes weak -the food you eat doesn’t get converted into proper energy , and instead forms ama- sticky, toxic waste that blocks the body’s natural channels -this blockages prevents insulin and hormones from working properly -the excess kapha mixes with sugar and fat, leading to tiredness, foggy brain, swelling, and sugar imbalance
2) HASHIMOTO’S -this occurs when your body’s defence system becomes confused due to toxins, stress, and low digestive fire -Instead of protecting you, it starts attacking the thyroid gland, which slows down metabolism -Symptoms= fatigue, weight gain, cold hands/feet, brain fog, hair loss, constipation
3) KIDNEY AND LIVER WEAKNESS -when there is long term diabetes and low metabolism , the liver and kidneys work overtime to filter toxins and regulate sugar and hormoes -over time, they become “sluggish”- meaning not diseased yet, but tired and loaded with waste -you may feel puffy, tired, heavy with dull skin and energy
TREATMENT GOALS -kindle digestive fire -remove toxins -balance the doshas -strengthen the liver, kidneys, and pancreas -regulate the thyroid and hormone balance naturally -rejuvinate - restore energy, immunity and peace of mind
INTERNAL MEDICATIONS
1) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime =gentle detox improves bowel and liver function
2) TRIKATU CHURNA = 1/4 tsp before meals with warm water =impoves digestion and metabolism

4) PUNARNAVA CAPSULE= 1 cap twice daily after meals =kidney cleanser, diuretic
5) BHUMYAMALAKI CAPSULE= 500mg twice daily after meals =liver protection, and sugar control
6) KANCHANAR GUGUGLU= 2 tabs twice daily afte meals =thyroid and lymphatic balancer
DIET -warm, cooked, fresh foods -light grains= barley, red rice, millets, quinoa -legumes=moong dal, lentils avoid heavy beans -vegetables= bottle gourd, ridge gourd, bitter gourd, drumstick ,spinach -spices= turmeric, cumin, coriander, fennel ,fenugreek, cinnamon, black pepepr -fats= small amounts of cow ghee, coconut oil, sesame oil -fruits= papaya, apple, pomegranate , guava -herbal teas= coriander + cumin + fennel seed boiled water
AVOID -white sugar, bakery items, polished rice -cold drinks, yogurt at night, fried or oily food -red meat, processed foods, cheese, alcohol -wheat heavy diet -excessie coffee or tea
GENERAL EATING HABITS -eat only when hungry -avoid overeating -sit calmly while eating, dont watch Tv or talk to much -sip warm water during meals
LIFESTYLE CHANGES -wake up early before 6 am- it balances kapha -oil pulling with sesame oil for 2-3 min to clear ama from mouth -dry brushing or oil massage before shower to stimulate lymph flow -avoid daytime sleep -slows metabolism -spend time in sunlight every day for thyroid and mood balance -sleep by 10 pm to support liver detox and hormone balance
YOGA ASANAS -suryanamaskar -bhujangasana -dhanurasana -vajrasana -setu bandhasana -ardha matsyendrasana

DO FOLLOW
HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL
THANK YOU
DR. MAITRI ACHARYA
Reversing diabetes naturally is a complex journey but a possible one with disciplined lifestyle changes. From a Siddha-Ayurvedic perspective, diabetes is often linked with imbalances of the Kapha and Pitta doshas. Addressing this involves enhancing your digestive fire, or agni, and cleansing body toxins, or ama.
Start by gradually transitioning to a diet that’s rich in fiber and low in processed sugars. Favor whole grains, fresh vegetables, particularly bitter gourds, and herbs like fenugreek and turmeric, known for their blood sugar balancing effects. Avoid cold or leftover foods, which may increase ama, and instead opt for freshly cooked, warm meals.
Consider beginning your day with a glass of warm water infused with the juice of half a lemon to stimulate your digestive system. For detoxifying the kidneys, incorporate herbs like Punarnava and Gokshura, which support renal function, and are usually available in Siddha formulations. Ensure you stay hydrated with warm water throughout the day to facilitate kidney cleansing.
For your liver, adding a spoonful of Triphala powder before bedtime can be beneficial, as it helps in cleansing the liver and improving bowel movements. Addressing brain fog and fatigue might involve ensuring you’re mentally relaxed and practicing stress-reduction techniques like Pranayama and meditation – these can help stabilize your hormones and enhance mental clarity.
Keeping your daily life active with light exercises, like a brisk walk or yoga, can improve insulin sensitivity and help manage weight. Ensure you’re getting adequate restful sleep, as it profoundly affects hormone balance and energy levels.
Monitoring your condition closely with a healthcare professional is crucial, particularly when seeking to reverse diabetes and manage related symptoms naturally. Adjust dietary habits and lifestyles incrementally, and keep track of how your body responds. Implement these steps consistently to initiate positive change, but always remain under the guidance of medical practitioners to avoid complications.
