Management of Diabetes through lifestyle modification, Ayurvedic medicines, Panchkarma, diet correction & Yoga -Aasana - Dhyana - Pranayam

I have been treating patients of diabetes since 2007; I have come across many facts which help in better glucose management which were hidden since long. In modification of lifestyle, I make patients physically more active, there are some medicines in Ayurveda, which are able to reduce blood sugar level remarkably and washes out all previously accumulate sugar in the body, they also work simultaneously on nephropathy, neuropathy, retinopathy, non-healing wounds, ulcers, cellulites, gangrene etc. Panchkarma is completely unique concept of Ayurveda. It has five different methods of cleaning body internally. Panchkarma is made of Vaman – medicated & planned vomiting, Virechan – medicated purgation, Basti – Enema of medicated oils, Nasya – putting medicated oil/ghee in nose & Raktamokshan – impure bloodletting. In diet correction, I am on an extremely different path than the present scenario, usually patients are recommended frequent meals but I recommend just two meals, Ayurveda strongly recommends fasting (partial/complete) to these patients and they also give tremendous results, just to acknowledge you – Ayurveda says excessive consumption of curd may be one of the reasons of causing as well as worsening diabetes. Yoga, Aasana, Dhyan & Pranayama help in healing patients physically as well as mentally. Above all these thing together improves quality of life.
