Diabetes - #753

With a fasting blood sugar of 350 mg/dL, it is crucial to address diabetes promptly. In Ayurveda, diabetes (Madhumeha) is primarily linked to an imbalance in Kapha and Vata doshas. I recommend starting with Nisha Amalaki Churna (a combination of Turmeric and Amla) to help regulate blood sugar levels, along with Vijaysar and Gudmar to support pancreatic function and improve glucose metabolism. Chandraprabha Vati can also be used to manage energy levels and support overall health. Dietary modifications are essential, focusing on a low-carb, high-fiber diet with regular physical activity. Walking for an hour everyday is mandatory. A typical course may take 3 to 6 months to stabilize sugar levels, but ongoing management is necessary. Regular monitoring of blood sugar levels and consultation with an Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized adjustments are advised. Additionally, asthma management should be integrated with diabetes care to ensure overall well-being.
