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.
Oh wow, fasting sugar at 350mg/dl, that’s, quite high, yes; suggests a likely advanced phase of diabetes. Definitely, need to get our hands around this so you don’t have further complications. But first, know that Ayurveda can complement modern treatments. So please keep in touch with your doctors too!
Now, from an Ayurvedic perspective, focusing on your diet, lifestyle, and specific herbs can make a significant difference, but it might take a bit of time too. Not a one-pill fix but a consistent effort on multiple fronts. Here’s what’s often recommended;
1. Diet: Aim for whole grains instead of refined ones, think millet and barley; loads of veggies - but not too sweet ones like beets, sugary stuff. Also, proteins like legumes can be your best buddies! Avoid overloading yourself with carbs. And fruits, in moderation - berries work well, maybe a little apple or pear if you need fruit.
2. Herbs: Fenugreek seeds, turmeric, and bitter gourd juice can be helpful. They work slowly, so patience is key. Medicinally too, Ativisha and Kataka are referenced for diabetes in classics. But check with a local Ayurvedic practitioner for dosage.
3. Activity: Regular moderate exercise is non-negotiable; a brisk walk or yoga can boost metabolism, important for balancing doshas and helps in effective sugar metabolism.
4. Time Frame: I’d say give this 3 to 4 months for a noticeable change. Diligent, for real!! Note down what happens on the glucose chart. Also, stress management - it’s vital! Meditation, maybe some breathing exercises.
Remember, integrating these changes gradually with grace and awareness helps stabilize your condition – don’t rush. But hey, always act safely and stay in touch with health professionals for any situation changes. It’s a journey embracing holistic health; let’s say cheers to careful steps forward!
