How To Treat High Blood Sugar - Top 4 Diabetes Herbal Remedies

ABOUT DIABETES

‘Diabetes’ is a term used for describing a group of metabolic diseases typically characterized by high levels of blood glucose (blood sugar) over a prolonged period of time. It is, hence, a long-term condition which is officially referred to as ‘Diabetes Mellitus’ (DM) by doctors. There are some effective Diabetes herbal remedies which can be very helpful in managing the ‘Diabetes’ group of diseases.

People suffering from Diabetes have high blood sugar levels due to two main reasons: (i) inadequate production of insulin by the pancreas; and/or (ii) improper response by the body’s cells to the insulin produced by the pancreas.

In the first case, in which the pancreas do not produce enough insulin, the patients are said to be suffering from Type I Diabetes; and in the second case, in which the cells of the body do not response properly to the insulin produced, the patients are said to be suffering from Type II Diabetes. Type I Diabetes was earlier known as ‘insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus’ or ‘juvenile diabetes,’; while Type II Diabetes is basically a condition marked by ‘insulin resistance.’ Type II Diabetes can gradually lead to a lack of insulin in the patients as the diseases progresses.

Type I Diabetes and Type II Diabetes are the two main forms of Diabetes; with the former (Type I) accounting for nearly 10 percent of all Diabetes cases worldwide, and the latter (Type II) accounting for approximately 90 percent of the Diabetes cases worldwide. Besides Type I and Type II Diabetes, another type of Diabetes is ‘Gestational Diabetes’ which affects women during pregnancy.

Due to high blood sugar levels, Diabetes patients experience some common signs of the disease which include frequent urination (polyuria), intense thirst (polydipsia) and intense hunger (polyphagia). In addition to these symptoms, Diabetes can also lead to unusual weight loss or weight gain, fatigue, male sexual dysfunction, difficulty in healing of cuts/bruises, numbness and a tingling sensation in hands and feet. For managing these symptoms, Diabetes herbal remedies can prove to be very beneficial for the patients.

TOP 4 DIABETES HERBAL REMEDIES

Herbal remedies for Diabetes comprise a judicious use of some potent herbal formulations which are prepared in accordance with time-tested principles of Ayurveda. Ayurvedic practitioners classify 24 forms of Diabetes, which they commonly categorize as ‘Prameha.’

According to Ayurveda, Diabetes (Prameha) is a metabolic ‘Kapha’ type of disease, which is marked by elevated levels of blood sugar. Ayurvedic experts believe that diabetic disorders are chiefly caused by fat, urine, and the build-up of ‘Kapha’ resulting from intake of improper foods and liquids, as well as lifestyle and other factors.

Ayurveda clearly mentions that Diabetes is a ‘Yapay’ disease, which means that the condition lingers on for the patients throughout their lifespan. However, the condition can be managed with the help of Diabetes herbal remedies, along with some advisable diet and lifestyle changes.

The use of herbal remedies can be very beneficial in lowering blood glucose levels in Diabetic patients. The top 4 Diabetes herbal remedies are:

The use of Fenugreek capsules is beneficial for Diabetes patients because these capsules can lower their high blood sugar levels, enhance the functioning ability of digestive system, aid digestion, prevent the formation of gas or flatus, and assist the pancreas in secreting more of the insulin hormone in order to reduce the risk of high blood sugar.

Ayurvedic Supplements for Diabetes

Diabetes Herbal Remedies

More and more people are suffering from this silent killer nowadays. If we look at the data from last 30 years, the incidence has increased 4 times. This clearly indicates the relation of diabetes to our lifestyle. In our 15 years of clinical practice and experience, we have seen that there is a deep relation of thoughts, anxiety, stress with the onset and control of diabetes particularly Type II.

According to Ayurveda (traditional healthcare system of India), there are 20 pre diabetic conditions when the full fledged state of Diabetes can be avoided. There are total 20 types of "Prameha" (pre-diabetic conditions) which ultimately leads to "Madumeha" (Diabetes) if not controlled in time.

There are certain signs of pre-diabetic conditions like increased frequency of urine, heavy urine, dirty urine, smelly frothy urine, fatigue, and lethargy, sticky saliva in mouth, bad breath, and bad smell in sweat and so on. Once these symptoms of pre-diabetes are not controlled, the overt symptoms of diabetes are visible.

These are the major symptoms of Diabetes

  • Increased Thirst
  • Increased appetite – Feeling of eating all the time
  • Loss of Weight
  • Dry Mouth
  • Fatigue, Tiredness
  • Muscle aches and pains
  • Calf Myalgia

How things works in case of OBESE DIABETIC

The sugar levels in our body are controlled by hormones called Insulin and Glucagon. If our body cells need energy, they get it from the food we eat. The pancreas secretes insulin, which opens up the channels of the cells and cells burn calories (Glucose). If the Insulin is not able to open up the channels (insulin resistance - due to obesity, fat deposits around cells), then the glucose stays in the blood. The glucose levels are elevated in the blood. The cells die out of starvation and lack of energy and the blood sugar levels remain high.

When there is no Obesity

In this case, the Beta cells of the pancreas, stop producing Insulin. There is not enough insulin and the blood sugar levels remain high.

Ayurvedic treatment of Diabetes

Many patients take modern drugs to keep sugar levels in control but the diabetes in not in control. There are many factors like diet, stress, anxiety which play the role. We suggest you to keep your anxiety levels low and add up or replace the modern drugs with Ayurvedic herbs. The Ayurvedic medicines can be taken alone or along with modern drugs to keep sugar levels in control. These herbal formulations do not have any side effects and help to stop fluctuation in the sugar levels.

Individual products can also be chosen by patients to keep their sugar levels in control. The combo pack however is more effective in case the sugar levels are too high.

This package is particularly recommended for patients who are have problems like nerve weakness, tingling sensation in arms, fingers or legs, feet, toes.
