To address proteinuria in the context of controlled diabetes, Ayurvedic remedies focus on supporting kidney function and reducing inflammation. Herbs like Gokshura (for kidney health), Punarnava (to reduce water retention and support kidneys), and Varuna (for urinary support) may help manage proteinuria. Shilajit can rejuvenate kidney function, and Ashwagandha supports overall vitality. A kidney-friendly diet, including hydrating foods like cucumbers and coconut water, along with adequate hydration and stress management, is essential. It's best to consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for a tailored approach, ensuring compatibility with your current medications and addressing any underlying imbalances.

Thank You Doctor
First off, it's good to hear that your blood sugar is now under control with insulin. Keeping it managed is crucial, so keep up with the monitoring and medication. Foamy urine, indicating proteinuria, can indeed be concerning with diabetes in the picture. Ayurveda can provide support, but we'd need to be careful, especially since you’re already on Cardace and insulin.
Ayurvedically speaking, proteinuria often lies in an imbalance in the kidneys' function, which in terms of Ayurveda, relates to vitiated Vata and Pitta doshas affecting the urinary system and ultimately Ojas. Ensuring a strong Agni (digestive fire) and reducing Ama (toxins) is fundamental.
For the kidneys, consider incorporating Gokshura (Tribulus terrestris). It's known for it's renal-supportive properties and traditionally used to support renal health. Start with Gokshura churna, about 1/2 tsp mixed with warm water once daily. Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus) can assist in nourishing tissues, including those in the kidneys. Shatavari powder, taken about 1 tsp with milk in the evening, would be helpful.
Diet-wise, it’s key to follow a Pitta-pacifying and Kapha-balancing diet. Keep it light. Minimize salty, spicy, or sour foods as they may irritate both kidneys and blood sugar levels. Include vegetables like bottle gourd (lauki) and ash gourd (petha) which are cooling and supportive for renal function. Drink ample water, but don't overdo it due to the kidneys' limited processing.
Lifestyle-wise, yoga postures like Ardha Matsyendrasana and Marjariasana can help improve renal function and circulation, stabilize energy flow. Avoid stress, it can be a hidden trigger, engage in calming practices like simple breathing exercises to keep stress at bay.
But don't skip your allopathy; Cardace and insulin have critical roles here, and sudden changes can be risky. Ayurveda works best when integrated mindfully with conventional treatment. Keep in touch with your healthcare team too, they’re your biggest support. Remember, this journey’s about balancing what’s modern with ancient wisdom for best results.
