A Bit About Diabetes

Affecting close to 10% of the adult population worldwide, Diabetes is one of the most common health disorders. It is a disease that is metabolic in nature, where a high concentration of sugar in our blood causes health complications. Our body is either unable to produce enough insulin, or the already-produced insulin is not efficiently utilized by the body. If left untreated, diabetes can damage your nerves, kidneys, and various other parts of the body. Natural treatment for Diabetes advocates the use of ayurvedic medicines for blood sugar control and also recommends dietary changes to accelerate the rehabilitation of patients.

Diabetes has a few types, such as:

Type 1: It is an auto-immune disease in which the immune system of our body invades and destroys pancreatic cells. Since the pancreas is the production house of insulin in the body, this results in a reduced production of insulin in the body. The causes of type 1 diabetes are still unknown to most of the researchers.
Type 2: When our body develops resistance to insulin, that is known as type 2 diabetes. This results in an increase in the blood sugar level in the body. Type 2 diabetes affects around 10% of the entire adult world population and is by far the most common type of diabetes.
Type 1.5: Type 1.5 diabetes, or 'Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA)', starts in adulthood, and the disease progresses over a while.
Gestational: Gestational diabetes is women-specific in the sense that women experience high blood sugar during pregnancy in this type of diabetes. The placenta releases insulin-blocking hormones that increase the blood sugar level in women.

Ayurvedic Treatment of Diabetes

Ayurvedic treatment of diabetes makes optimal use of Ayurvedic medicines for blood sugar control, Panchakarma treatment, diet changes, and yoga to control blood sugar and alleviate the symptoms associated with this disease. Ayurvedic medicine for diabetes focuses on enhancing the insulin sensitivity of type-4 glucose receptors in the body. This reduces insulin resistance, leading to a healthy blood sugar level. Some specific Ayurvedic herbs encourage the secretion of insulin, which promotes the regeneration of beta cells in the body.

Dietary modifications also play a huge role in regulating the blood sugar levels in the body. Foods such as broccoli, seafood, pumpkin, nuts, okra, flaxseed, beans, fermented foods, chia seeds, kale, berries, avocados, oats, citrus, kefir, and eggs regulate blood sugar levels in our body. If you are a diabetic, try to have 5–6 small meals all day instead of 2-3 big meals. This way, you would avoid a sharp spike in your blood glucose levels. Spices like turmeric, cumin, coriander, and cardamom are anti-inflammatory and help alleviate the symptoms associated with this disease.

Diabetes is one of the most common diseases in the world, and it certainly compromises your quality of life. Take measures to keep your blood sugar in check, follow dietary regulations, take medicines, and avoid sugar-rich foods to have a healthy life.
