Hello Mr Mohanan, how much is your Hba1c & Fasting glucose? What is your weight? And how is your digestion? Diabetic neuropathy, in Ayurveda, is primarily managed by balancing the Vata dosha and supporting nerve health through a combination of herbal remedies, dietary modifications, and lifestyle therapies. Key herbs like Ashwagandha help reduce stress and strengthen the nervous system, while Turmeric (Curcumin) acts as a potent anti-inflammatory, aiding in the reduction of nerve pain. (One capsule each after breakfast) Triphala helps detoxify the body and Guduchi supports immune function and blood sugar regulation. (One capsule each on empty stomach morning.) keep a gap of 15 mins between two capsules.
From a dietary perspective, a Vata-pacifying diet is recommended, which includes warm, easily digestible meals such as soups, cooked vegetables, and ghee. It’s also beneficial to include bitter gourd (karela) and fenugreek (methi), which are known to help regulate blood sugar. Cold, dry, and processed foods should be avoided as they can aggravate Vata.
In terms of lifestyle, Abhyanga (oil massage) with warm sesame or medicated oils is advised to improve circulation and soothe the nerves. Additionally, gentle exercises and Pranayama (breathing exercises) are beneficial for calming the nervous system and promoting better blood flow. By following these Ayurvedic practices, symptoms of diabetic neuropathy can be managed effectively, improving overall nerve function and quality of life.

Given your history of diabetes for 15 years and the stroke you experienced in 1922, it's essential to take a comprehensive approach to manage your health effectively. It's encouraging to hear that you are practicing yoga daily, as this can significantly benefit your overall well-being, improve circulation, and help regulate blood sugar levels.
Continuing with your Ayurvedic medicine, Mehatone, alongside your allopathic medications, is a good strategy, as it combines the strengths of both systems. Ensure that your diet is balanced and rich in whole grains, fresh vegetables, and healthy fats while avoiding refined sugars and processed foods. Including bitter gourd (Karela), fenugreek, and amla in your diet can further support blood sugar management and overall vitality.
Hydration is also crucial, so make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day. Regular monitoring of your blood sugar levels will help you understand how your body is responding to your current regimen.

It sounds like you're dealing with quite a number of health challenges. Let's see how Ayurveda might be able to complement what you're already doing... Staying active with yoga is great, especially if you’re managing both diabetes and circulation issues—keep that up! You mentioned blood circulation problems in the legs, possibly why there’s a balance concern.
From an Ayurvedic perspective, it's crucial to address any imbalances in the doshas, particularly Vata, which often plays a role in neurological and circulatory issues. Include more warm, cooked, and easily digestible foods in your diet, like soups or stews. It's helpful to reduce vata by consuming foods that are sweet, sour, and salty. You know, things like cooked greens with some spices like turmeric and black pepper —they can get stuff moving with prana.
For specific herbs, I mean, maybe look at Ashwagandha or Guggulu, known for their rejuvenating effects on nervouse and circulatory systems. Still, I'd suggest checking with your local Ayurvedic doc first to make sure it "jives" with your prakirti.
A little warm oil massage (Abhyanga) using sesame oil on your legs before a shower could stimulate circulation. Seriously, if you haven't tried it, it could really help your legs relax and feel energized.
With diabetes and having had a stroke, it’s super important to keep your medical team in loop, especially when combining treatments. And make sure that all medications, including Ayurvedic ones, harmonize with what your doc prescribed. Probably a good idea to have regular checks with your health care providers.
Mindful breathing or pranayama could support balance too. Something simple like Nadi Shodhana, try it out for a few minutes daily squeezed into your routing – it’s great for calm and balance. Just small consistent steps that align with what both Ayurveda and contemporary medicine recommend could make a big different. Take care!
