Diabetes is metabolic diseases in which a person has high blood sugar either because the pancreas does not produce enough insulin or because cells do not respond to the insulin that is produced. Uncontrolled diabetes leads to serious degenerative complications like nephropathy, neuropathy, retinopathy, diabetic foot, coronary artery disease, stroke etc
Diabetes is primarily caused by over eating, unhealthy life style, stress, bad food habits and obesity. WHO says 90–95% of diabetics are suffering with “type 2” diabetes, which can be controlled by modifying the lifestyle and food habits.
Ayurvedic diabetes treatments are not just to reduce blood sugar levels but to rejuvenate the body with simple herbs to minimize the future complications. In Ayurveda, the cause, symptom, manifestation of diabetes depends on individual constitution and abnormal doshas and so is the treatment.
