Which Ayurvedic Medicine Is Best for Sugar? - #9864
I’ve recently been diagnosed with high blood sugar and am looking for the best Ayurvedic medicine for managing sugar levels. I’ve read that Ayurveda offers natural remedies that can complement lifestyle changes, but I’m unsure which one to choose. One of the common recommendations I’ve seen is karela (bitter gourd) capsules or juice. Do these really help lower blood sugar, and are they safe to take daily? How long does it take to notice improvements, and do they work for fasting sugar levels or post-meal spikes? Another suggestion I’ve come across is jamun powder or supplements. I’ve heard that jamun is effective for improving insulin sensitivity—does this work for people with type 2 diabetes? Are there specific Patanjali or Ayurvedic formulations that include jamun as a primary ingredient? I’m also curious about herbal combinations like Madhunashini or other Ayurvedic blends. How do they work to manage sugar levels, and are they better than single-ingredient remedies? Are these medicines safe to take alongside prescribed allopathic treatments? Lastly, are there any precautions or potential side effects of using Ayurvedic medicines for sugar management? For example, could they cause hypoglycemia if blood sugar drops too low? If anyone has experience using Ayurvedic medicines for managing sugar levels, I’d love to know which ones worked for you and how they fit into your routine. Any tips on diet and lifestyle changes to complement these medicines would also be helpful.
