Avoid new grains.What to Eat (Vegetables) Bitter and astringent vegetables: Bitter gourd, fenugreek, pointed gourd, drumstick, bottle gourd, ridge gourd, spinach, radish, cucumber, leafy vegetables. These vegetables gently balance the phlegm and fat in the body.What to drink (drinks) Dietary drinks: • Buttermilk • Lukewarm water • Triphala water Kushodak/Sarodak (as advised by a doctor) Sweet drinks, packaged juices • Cold water Avoid sugary drinks. ●What should be limited/avoided? Sweets • White flour • Fried food • Excessive oil • Yogurt (at night) • Potatoes, sweet potatoes Excessive fruit (especially sweets) Diabetes requires balance, not abstinence. ●The Principle of Multi-Medicine Formula Multi-medicine combinations are considered more effective in treating diabetes than single medications, because they simultaneously act on: • Kapha-Meda • Agni • Dhatu • Srotas ●Herbs Used (Composition) 25 grams each: • Bitter gourd seeds, Gudmar • Wild jamun seeds, Neem, Giloy, Ashwagandha • Neem bark, Belpatra • Triphala, Turmeric • Pure Shilajit - 50 grams • Trivanga Bhasma - 12 grams This combination is chosen for phlegm absorption, ama-reduction, and metal balancing.
