Ayurvedic treatments to combat Diabetes


Diabetes has been recognized by Ayurveda for centuries. Recognized as Madhumeha is Sanskrit nomenclature, it is primarily classifed as a kapha variantal disorder. Overall, Ayurveda identifies as many as twenty types of diabetes - four due to Vata, six from Pitta, and ten caused by Kapha.

A disease severely aggravated by the wrong kind of diet, its planning and implementation is the Ayurvedic cornerstone in managing diabetes. Sugar for starters - is avoided in any form. This particularly pertains to foods such as rice, potato, banana, cereals and fruits which possess high sugar content. A singular bitter dish is recommended in every meal, and it proceeds to advise the inclusion of vegetables such as bitter gourd, string beans and grains like Bengal gram into the diet.


Of them all, the bitter gourd is regarded as the best remedy for diabetes. Drinking at least one tablespoon of bitter gourd juice on a daily basis will help reduce blood sugar levels in blood and urine. In addition, having bitter gourd cooked in ghee for a period of a few months also helps in reducing diabetic reactions in the patient by enabling the pancreas and pancreatic glands to secrete insulin.

Ayurveda proceeds to recommend changes and improvements to one's lifestyle as well, in its zeal to combat diabetes. Aside from avoiding smoking and other obviously harmful activities, diabetics are advised to avoid sleeping during the day, prescribed regular eyecare and asked to take adequate care of the eyes and feet.

In essence, the strategies prescribed by Ayurveda in the treatment of diabetes and lowering blood sugar level are safe, easy to practise, and are free of any side effects whatsoever - establishing it as a core method in controlling this passive disease.
