At age 54 with prediabetes, the most important treatment is still lifestyle modification (diet, weight management, and regular exercise). Ayurvedic medicines may be used as supportive therapy, but they should not replace monitoring and evidence-based prevention. Since you have taken the Badarinath Ayurvedic medicines for 1–4 weeks and noticed no change, it is difficult to know whether they are helping. Many Ayurvedic products contain multiple herbs, and their quality and ingredients can vary. ------Therefore, I would not advise continuing them indefinitely if it’s not giving u any results and any side effects occured. -----Check: Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS) Post-Meal Blood Sugar (PPBS) HbA1c (every 3–6 months) ----Diet: Reduce sugar, sweets, fruit juices, refined flour, white rice, and processed foods. Increase vegetables, salads, whole grains, pulses, and protein. Avoid frequent snacking. -----Exercise: At least 150 minutes/week of brisk walking. Include strength training 2–3 times weekly if medically fit. -----Weight: If overweight, even a 5–10% weight reduction can significantly lower diabetes risk. ----Aahar (Diet) Barley (Yava), millet, green gram, horse gram. Bitter vegetables: karela, methi, neem leaves (in moderation). Avoid excess sweets, bakery items, curd at night, fried foods. -----Vihar (Lifestyle) Brisk walk 45 minutes daily. Yoga: Surya Namaskar, Pavanamuktasana, Ardha Matsyendrasana. Pranayama: Anulom-Vilom and Bhramari for 10 minutes daily. -----Ayurvedic Medicines 1) Nishamalaki Churna – 3 g twice daily after meals.+ 2)Gudmar (Meshashringi) 2gm 3) Chandraprabha Vati –2 tab twice daily after meal 4) Triphala Churna – 5 g at bedtime if digestion permits.
