• You feel you’re dehydrated?
• You feel your stomach is growling?
• You feel you’re worn out and weak?
• You are losing pounds without workouts?
• You feel the need for eye drops, glasses, contact lenses, or any other treatment for your eyes, because you feel your vision is blurred?
• You have the urge to pee more often than usual all through the day?
If you are experiencing the above symptoms, increased thirst and frequent urination, being the most common ones, then it is highly likely that you are struck by diabetes, which needs timely attention by a diabetic specialist, known as Diabetologist aka Endocrinologist, who diagnoses and treats diabetes. A registered homeopath can also help you in this pursuit.
In addition to the aforementioned symptoms, delayed wound healing, frequent infections, numbness or tingling in the limbs, pain or discomfort in the gums, and localized itching can be the others.
An endocrine system constitutes the glands and the organs that produce various hormones, including INSULIN, an essential hormone that regulates blood sugar or blood glucose. Insulin is crucial because itsmain job is to budge glucose from our bloodstream to the cells in our body to make energy. In the absence of insulin, glucose gets accumulated in the bloodstream (Hyperglycemia), rather than going to the cells. This condition is known as Diabetes or Diabetes Mellitus, technically. Diabetes is a chronic condition that afflicts humans either when the insulin-producing beta cells of the pancreas aren’t productive enough in making enough insulin (they don’t produce any in some cases) or when the body resists or can’t make use of the insulin produced optimally.
Hyperglycemia, over time, can affect eyes, gums, feet, and nerves, or cause damage to blood vessels in the heart, eyes, kidneys and nerves. Playing down the seriousness of the condition can cause people to live with a lurking fear of becoming the victims of cardiac arrest, stroke (especially ischemic stroke), and kidney failure.
Diabetes Mellitus is broadly classified into two types, Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) and Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). The table below gives you the fundamental differences between T1D and T2D.
Both T1D and T2D can lead to dire consequences. They can cause cardiac disease & stroke, kidney failure, damage to the nerves, foot problems, skin & mouth infections, Alzeimer’s disease & dementia, and vision impairment. Nevertheless, diabetics can keep them under control and you can lead prolonged, healthy lives with proper medical care and lifestyle changes. The key components of managing Diabetes Mellitus include regular sugar check-up, consumption of balanced diet, workouts, and diligently following your doctor’s regimen.
Other Factual Information about Diabetes
• Diabetic patients, especially those that are insulin-dependent can become victims of Diabetic Retinopathy, a complication of high blood sugar. If it is left undiagnosed and untreated in a timely manner, it may cause vision impairment or blindness. Nevertheless, it takes many years for Diabetic Retinopathy to become so critical that you may have to forgo your eye sight.
• Diabetic patients are 17 times more susceptible to kidney problems and kidney diseases than normal people.
• Diabetic patients are 40-50 times more susceptible to Gangrene (a condition caused due to the lack of blood flow to a part of the body). Gangrene occurs mostly in feet.
• Diabetes patients are twice as likely to suffer from heart diseases.
• Women are more likely to attract diabetes than men
• New-borns of diabetic women are often larger than usual for the gestational age.
• Overweight people are more likely to get diabetes
• The chance of developing diabetes doubles with every added decade to one’s age

Diabetes Heed
If you pay heed to doctors’ advice, you can keep diabetes under your control for all your life. You pay no heed, you are inviting complications. Diabetes Mellitus is a serious disease that needs round-the-clock commitment. Adopt a stringent diabetes-care plan and drive away therisk of complicated, life-threatening conditions.
Here are the several ways that help keep you from diabetic complications and take joy in your physically fit future, recommended by diabetologists:
1. Commitment to Dealing with Your Diabetes
By assimilating the basics of diabetes care, you can lead a healthy
life, living with diabetes. The diabetes care team members,
including the primary care provider, the education specialist, and the
dietician, can help you from soup to nuts in the diabetes
management. Let sticking to a stringent diabetes meal plan, a regular
exercise routine, and maintaining a healthy weight be the
cornerstones of your diabetes care. Keep monitoring your blood
sugar levels and follow your diabetologist’s instructions to manage it.
2. Say No to Smoking Cigarettes
Smoking makes it hard to manage and control your diabetes, as tobacco smoke can negatively affect diabetic patients. The nicotine levels, present in tobacco, can subdue the cells in your body, which do not quickly react to insulin. Consequently, blood sugar levels go high, leading to complications. Smoking can lead to several diabetes complications such as reduced blood flow in the lower limbs and feet, which can lead to dire consequences, including infections and non-healing ulcers. Also, because of reduced or lack of blood supply or severe bacterial infection, Gangrene, a death of body tissue, is developed, commonly found affecting the arms and legs, including the toes and fingers. Gangrene may harm the muscles and various organs of the body like the gallbladder. Gangrene is mostly fatal or leads to limb loss. One out of five diabetic patients having gangrene needs amputation. Smoking can increase the risks of heart diseases, stroke, eye diseases, and nerve damage. These can result in premature death.
3. Keep a Check on Your BP and Cholesterol
High blood pressure (BP) and diabetes do the same thing – damage the blood vessels. High blood pressure can cause blood vessels to narrow and increase the risk of blood clots forming in the arteries that transport oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the cells in different parts of the body. Also, according to clinical studies, heightened cholesterol levels can result in the degeneration of glucose tolerance. All these complications, together, can lead to cardiac arrest, stroke, or other conditions that can put you in grave danger. Consumption of a healthy, low-fat, and low-salt diet, without the intake of excess alcohol, can help you manage diabetes successfully. Not to mention, exercise helps your body use insulin better.
4. Schedule Regular Medical Examinations
Have periodical diabetes check-ups every year – two to four, apart
from your routine physical and eye exams. This medical
examination will enable your healthcare provider to check your
nutrition and activity levels and detect, if any, diabetes-related
worsened cases, including kidney and/or nerve damage, and
cardiac disease. At the same time, the doctor may also examine
your feet to check if they need attention, and check for other
medical issues.
Although your diabetes care professional examines your eyes,
you need to get a thorough dilated eye exam (a routine exam that
enables your doctor to examine the back of your eyes) at least
once a year by an ophthalmologist having germane advanced
equipment. He or she will see if there are any signs of cataract,
glaucoma, or retinal damage.
5. Keep Your Vaccines Up-to-date
Diabetes can increase the risks of some vaccine-preventable
maladies. Check with your doctor if you need any vaccines
including Flu vaccine, Pneumonia vaccine, and Hepatitis B vaccine
for these diseases. Also, be up to date with your tetanus shot,
which is administered once every ten years. You doctor may
recommend other vaccines, apart from these.
6. Good Oral Care Is a Must
There is a link between sugar and gum disorder.Diabetes can
affect your gums, causing pain and discomfort, which may lead to
serious gum diseases, including gum infection. It is important to
regulate your blood glucose levels to avert gum diseases or
periodontal diseases. Freeing from gum diseases can
help you control diabetes with ease. levels in diabetic patients.
Keep your pearly whites and gums clean and healthy by following
certain simple teeth brushing tips, including brushing your teeth
two times a day with a fluoride toothpaste, flossing them at least
once, and getting periodical dental examinations. Pay heed to
bleeding, reddened, or swollen gums, and request the intervention
of a dentist before it is too late.
7. Be Wary About Your Feet
Hyperglycemia can decrease the blood flow and impair the nerves
in your feet. Wounds take a long time to heal, and cuts and blisters
can result in critical infections, if left untreated. Also, high blood
sugar levels can lead to pain, tingling, and numbness in your feet.
Your feet are prone to some kind of injury, including minor cuts,
wounds, and blisters. So, examine your feet for indications of
swelling, redness or heat, every day. When you encounter a
problem in your foot/feet, act quickly and show it to a doctor. Be
gentle while bathing, especially when cleaning your feet. Moisten
your feet leaving the between-the-toe areas, using a good
moisturizer. The extra moisture between the toes may lead to
infection.
Some Tips to Keep Avoid Injury to Your Feet
• Don’t go barefoot
• Cleanse your feet with lukewarm water (Avoid soaking them because this can lead to dry skin)
• Keep your feet free from moist, most importantly, the spaces between the toes
• Keep your feet moist using a moisturizing lotion or petroleum jelly
• Inspect your feet regularly for blisters, sores, and swelling
• See your doctor at once if you have a foot ulcer or a sore that hasn’t healed for a long time
8. Check with Your Doctor If Your Body Requires Aspirin
If you have cardiovascular risk factors, including high blood pressure, your doctor may prescribe aspirin of a low dose to diminish the risk of cardiac arrest and/or stroke. However, this is not applicable for all diabetics, as daily aspirin bears the risk of severe bleeding episodes.
9. You Can Consume Alcohol, But…
Alcohol can intervene with the effects of certain diabetes medicines,
and be responsible for low/high blood glucose, depending on how
much you consume. So, a moderate involvement in drinking is okey-
dokey (one serve for women and two serves for men). While drinking,
make sure you pump calories too through healthy foods. So, refer the
periodic table of booze that’ll give you calorie-count information in the
foods as well as in the alcohol you are going to down. There are
certain brands that make alcohol that might be ideal for diabetic
patients. If you prefer mixed drinks, you can consume diet soft drinks,
water, or seltzer (soda water) for mixing.
Ease Diabetes Stress
Being nice to yourself with a sanguine attitude is the best way to challenge stress. “Is diabetes management under my control? This very thought may persistently haunt you as it does to any other diabetic. If you are stressed, your normal diabetes care routine (to-do list) may seem overwhelming. So, learning how to ease your mind and body during anxious episodes can give you a sense of security. When you are stressed, choose the item in the to-do list that you can accomplish straightaway and get going. Take off time from your work schedule and go on foot for about 30 minutes every day.
Engage in Mindful Breathing and Meditation
When you are stressed, as a response to it, your body readies itself to escape or fight against the imminent danger by making some changes - Your breathing becomes faster, muscles contract, and blood pressuresurges. Your body apprises you of all these changes and warns you of the impending jeopardy - increased sugar level. Your body also signals you that when you do your bit of work, diabetes will not intrude in your healthy, animated life.
For Mindful Breathing, you prepare yourself by adopting a comfortable posture, keeping your eyes closed or open with a softened gaze. Mindful Breathing means focussing your attention on your breath – the inhale and exhale. Being mindful, engaging in breathing exercises such as diaphragmatic breathing actuates the parasympathetic nervous system that aids relaxation and helps take the edge of your stress. Mindfulness can help you regulate emotions, which in turn lowers your overall stress and anxiety. In diaphragmatic breathing, you start by taking many long deep breaths breathing in, inflating your belly and breathing out, deflating it.
Studies suggest that meditation can lower blood sugar and A1C levels, and, consequently, raise happiness scores. So, be on a meditation spree. There’s a handful of apps you can download from the internet that make meditation easy, and eventually, meditation becomes a way of life. You don’t have to meditate for hours on end to enjoy the benefits. A 25-minute meditation session for three days a week days reportedly ensue calmness during stressful times, as per the study published in the periodical “Psychoneuroendocrinology”. Make it a standard to do 5-minute sessions a couple of times a day, or whenever you feel you are stressed.
Recollect Your Halcyon Days
When you feel the stress is building, close your eyes for a couple of minutes and fancy your halcyon days. If the sound of revelry issued into the hours of darkness was at the beach, imagine the rushing waves, the cool breeze hitting your face, and the grainy sand between your toes. This mental imagery can invoke calmness and serenity. You can also listen to music for relaxation and stress relief while lying supine in the bed, with your eyes closed.
Exercise Boosts Energy
Exercise is a great way to quickly boost your energy, which in turn boosts your mood. Even 15 minutes of moderate aerobic exercise, including walking or biking, can galvanize your brain to release feel-good hormones that are responsible in upping happiness, especiallyserotonin.
Here are several simple exercises that can help manage diabetes:
Walking
A brisk 30-minute walk or 10,000 steps a day, recommended by American Diabetes Association (ADA), can reduce the risk of Type 2 Diabetes, T2D in short. It can lower blood sugar levels and promote heart health. If you find it hard to walk for a half hour at a time, achieve this in instalments of five or ten minutes. You can enjoy walking outside or with friends for added motivation. The best part about walking is it can be done any time of the day. If briskness isn’t your capacity, slow your pace.
Swimming
Swimming is a low-impact exercise that lowers blood sugar levels while toning your muscles. Water aerobics and water jogging are also great alternatives. The best part about swimming is it works on all the organs of the body, including the cardiovascular system, without exerting excessive stress on the joints, muscles, or the skeletal system.
Cycling
Cycling helps lose calories and increase heart rate. It is gentle on the joints and helps reduce blood sugar levels, apart from controlling your body weight and cholesterol. You can cycle outdoors, use a stationary bike, or opt for an electric bike for added support.
Yogasana for Diabetes
Yoga, an ancient practice, originated in India, that combines body, mind, and breath to nurture physical and mental health, helps regulate blood sugar, regulate blood pressure, and enhance sleep quality and improve mood. It can also improve insulin sensitivity, control weight, and prevent diabetes. There are 84 aasanas (poses), out of which, certain Yoga poses might be advantageous for diabetes include:
Soorya Namaskar (Sun Salutation): Improves insulin sensitivity, lowers blood glucose, and enhances blood circulation.
Vipareetha Kaarani (Legs-up-the-wall pose): Improves blood sugar levels, regulates Blood Pressure (BP), and helps in de-stressing.
Paschimotthanaasana (Seated-forward-bend pose): Lowers BP, helps drop pounds, and mitigates anxiety.
Suptha Buddha Konaasana (Reclining-Bound-Angle Pose): Regulates BP, moderates blood sugar levels, and soothes the nervous system.
Sarvaangaasana (Supported shoulder-stand pose): Boosts insulin sensitivity, betters blood circulation, and stimulates thyroid function.
Tai Chi
Tai Chi, an ancient system of exercise, from China, improves balance and may help reduce nerve damage or neuropathy. It can be an effective exercise for T2D patients, since it blends physical activities and mindfulness, and can offer a wide range of benefits such as controlling blood glucose levels, improving cardiac health, and increasing flexibility and muscular strength.
Pilate Exercises
Pilates, an exercise discipline developed by a German-American gymnast, strengthens core muscles and enhances balance and posture with minimal joint strain.
Other beneficial exercises include dancing, low-impact aerobics, armchair aerobics, and jumping rope.
Take a Warm Shower Before Hitting the Sack
According to several studies, repeatedly keeping up during the night or disturbed sleep can cause glucose intolerance (a metabolic condition, which causes higher-than-normal blood sugar levels). An evaluation of 13 studies published in Sleep Medicine Reviews, a bi-monthly peer-analyzed medical journal, concluded that taking a warm 10-minute shower can help people fall asleep sooner. In addition, it serves as an excellent way to chill and stray away from daily stress.
Homeopathy and Diabetes Management
Homeopathy, a therapeutic approach developed in Germany, emphasizes a holistic vista on health. While it cannot completely cure diabetes, it can aid in enhancing overall well-being and support diabetes management. Effective diabetes management begins with understanding the various types of diabetes. Homeopathy offers a comprehensive approach to diabetes care, focusing on the individual as a whole rather than just addressing the symptoms. By targeting the underlying imbalances and promoting overall wellness, homeopathy seeks to restore balance and harmony within the body.
Effectiveness of Homeopathy in Managing Diabetes
Homeopathy Treatment aims to address the person thoroughly rather than focusing solely on the condition. While Homeopathy can’t fully cure diabetes or treat it expeditiously, it can treat it slowly and support overall well-being and help manage the condition by addressing constitutional traits. Although there is no homeopathic replacement for insulin, some studies suggest that combining homeopathic remedies in conjunction with conventional diabetes treatments may aid in blood sugar control.
A core principle of Homeopathy, the concept of "like cures like," puts forward that a substance causing symptoms in a healthy individual can, in a highly diluted form, be used to treat similar symptoms in a diabetic patient. Homeopathic treatments are selected based on the patient's unique symptoms and individual characteristics, rather than the disease itself.
In addition to addressing physical symptoms, homeopathy also takes into account emotional and mental health. Since diabetes can significantly affect both physical and emotional well-being, this holistic approach can be especially beneficial. Factors such as stress, anxiety, and depression, which influence blood sugar levels and overall health, are carefully considered during treatment.
Homeopathic treatment for diabetes begins with a thorough evaluation of the patient’s medical history, lifestyle, dietary habits, emotional state, and other contributing factors. This comprehensive assessment allows homeopaths to identify underlying causes and aggravating factors, enabling them to design personalized treatment plans to stimulate the body's natural healing processes.
One of the primary goals of homeopathy in diabetes management is to enhance the body’s ability to regulate blood sugar levels. Homeopathic remedies aim to improve metabolic balance, optimize pancreatic function, and increase insulin sensitivity. Since every individual responds differently to treatment, remedies are tailored to address each person’s specific symptoms and needs.
Beyond managing physical symptoms, homeopathy also focuses on improving overall health. This includes addressing common diabetes complications such as neuropathy, retinopathy, and cardiovascular issues. Homeopathic treatments can help alleviate related symptoms and promote the body’s healing processes.
Lifestyle modifications are a vital aspect of homeopathic diabetes management. Homeopaths emphasize the importance of a balanced diet, regular physical activity, stress management, and adequate sleep. They may provide dietary recommendations, suggest specific exercises, and offer strategies for reducing stress and improving overall well-being.
Homeopathic Remedies for Diabetes
Homeopathy provides a range of remedies tailored to individual symptoms and health profiles for diabetes management. Below are some commonly recommended homeopathic medicines:
Abroma Augusta (Devil’s Cotton): An evergreen shrub whose leaves are used to help manage diabetes effectively.
Syzygium Jambolanum: It is effective in lowering blood glucose.
Phosphoric Acid: Beneficial for patients experiencing physical weakness and mental fatigue due to diabetes.
Cephalandra Indica: Effective in addressing symptoms such as increased appetite and thirst.
Lactic Acid: Helps manage diabetes-related gastric complications.
Thyroidinum: Supports thyroid function and enhances the effectiveness of medical treatment.
Insulinum: A potent remedy that lowers blood glucose levels and aids in managing diabetes.
Uranium Nitricum: Recommended for patients dealing with glycosuria and polyuria, and gives help in maintaining balanced blood sugar levels.
Potential Complications
Neglecting diabetes management or failing to follow the prescribed regimen can result in severe complications, often referred to as advanced or end-stage diabetes. These complications may include:
• Blindness and cataracts
• Foot gangrene and peripheral neuropathy
• Heart attacks and heart failure
• Kidney failure
• Boils, ulcers, carbuncles, and fungal infections
• Digestive problems like alternating diarrhoea and constipation
• Bronchopneumonia
These complications may issue an ultimatum demanding an immediate treatment, warning deterioration to coma level.
Homeopathic Remedies for Specific Diabetic-related Symptoms
Blood sugar levels: Gymnema (Gymnema Sylvestre), a plant that may lower sugar levels in the blood and urine in people with T2D.
Numbness: Conium (Hemlock), is a plant-based solution, which might help with numbness in the feet or hands from nerve damage owing to diabetes. The metal lead or plumbum (Pb) is predicted to be connected with this symptom.
Kidney dysfunction: Uranium Nitricum and phosphoric acid are commonly used for people having the urge to pee frequently because of diabetes (Polydipsia). Honeybee (Apis Mellifica) is said to ease urine flow and assist your body exude extra fluid from the tissues.
Infections: Calendula or marigold, used as a lotion, when applied on skin, can get rid of yeast infections. However, a doctor’s intervention is suggested if serious conditions such as infected ulcers (caused by naturopathy) are noticed. Antibiotics can keep from possibleserious infections.
Managing Complications and Related Conditions
Homeopathy can play a role in managing high blood sugar levels and their associated complications. Diabetic neuropathy, characterized by nerve damage and sensory loss, is a common complication of diabetes. Remedies such as Helonias Dioica and Conium Maculatum have been used to relieve symptoms and improve the quality of life for individuals experiencing diabetic neuropathy.
Gestational diabetes, which occurs during pregnancy, can also be addressed through homeopathy. By adopting a holistic approach, homeopathy can help regulate blood sugar levels during pregnancy, reducing potential risks for both the mother and the baby.
Homeopathy may also support individuals dealing with insulin resistance, commonly seen in pre-diabetes and Type 2 Diabetes (T2). Remedies like Lycopodium Clavatum and Natrum Sulphuricum are believed to target the root causes of insulin resistance and help the body revive optimal metabolic function.
Specific Concerns and Supportive Care
Apart from regulating blood sugar, Homeopathy provides remedies to address specific diabetes-related concerns such as diabetic foot ulcers, a frequent complication, which can be difficult to heal owing to poor blood circulation and weakened immune response. Remedies such as Calendula Officinalis and Silicea can support wound healing, promote tissue regeneration, and help ward off infections.
Creating awareness of Diabetic Retinopathy is essential for those living with diabetes, as this condition can significantly affect eye health. Remedies like Ruta Graveolens and Phosphorus have been used to support eye health and manage symptoms associated with retinopathy. However, it is important to seek regular ophthalmological care alongside homeopathic treatments for better diagnosis and effective management.
Important Instructions to Be Followed During the Homeopathic Regimen
• Always take medication after cleaning your mouth, preferably on an empty stomach.
• Avoid consuming strong-smelling substances like onion or garlic for at least 30 minutes before and after taking the medicine.
• Discard medicine if white globules turn yellow or if sediments appear in liquid forms.
• Homeopathic remedies are more effective for non-smokers and those who avoid tobacco, alcohol, and narcotics.
• Consult a qualified homeopath if symptoms worsen or do not improve.
• Do not use other medications during homeopathic treatment unless advised by a homeopath.
• Store medicines:
i. Away from strong-smelling substances like camphor or menthol.
ii. Chilly, dehydrated place, away from sunshine.
iii. In a place kids can’t get at.
Changes in the Lifestyle and Homeopathic Solutions
Lifestyle modifications are very essential for effective diabetes management, ameliorating your health numbers such as weight, blood glucose, and blood pressure. Maintaining a healthy diet, engaging in regular physical activity, managing stress, and maintaining a healthy weight are key elements. Homeopathy can complement these lifestyle changes by supporting the body's natural healing processes and promoting overall well-being.
Stress management, a vital parameter of diabetes care, may be supported by homeopathic solutions. Some names that might jump out at you when it comes to Homeopathy include Ignatia Amara and Arsenicum Album, which are thought to help individuals cope with stress and achieve emotional balance.
Weight management also plays a cardinal role in diabetes care as overweight and obese people are more likely to attract diabetes. likeHomeopathic remedies such as Calcarea Arbonica (made from the middle layer of oyster shells) and Graphites (said to be effective in balancing hormonal irregularities) are believed to assist in weight control by addressing the underlying imbalances that may contribute to weight gain.
Individualized Homeopathic Treatment
Homeopathy is known for its personalized approach to treating an array of health conditions, including chronic conditions (asthma, arthritis, eczema, tiredness, and IBS or Irritable Bowel Syndrome), minor problems (bruises, cough & cold, headaches, nausea, and toothaches), mental health conditions (depression, anxiety, and stress), and allergies (food allergies and hay fever).
Practitioners consider each individual's unique symptoms and characteristics when prescribing remedies for diabetes management. By gaining a comprehensive understanding of the person, homeopathy aims to address the root causes of diabetes and support long-term health and well-being.
Are Homeopathic Remedies Safe for Diabetic Patients?
There is limited research on the safety of homeopathic medicines, and the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) does not evaluate them for safety or effectiveness.
Although, some of the homeopathic remedies may contain additional active ingredients, there will be no side effects, according to the Department of Homeopathy, Govt. of NCT of New Delhi. In addition, certain liquid homeopathic products may include alcohol. However, homeopathic remedies should never replace your doctor’s prescribed treatment plan for diabetes. If you’re considering trying a homeopathic product, consult your doctor first.
Research and Evidences Backing Homeopathy
Homeopathy has been practiced for centuries, but scientific research is still exploring its effectiveness in treating diabetes. The unique challenges of studying homeopathy make research in this area complex. However, some studies have shown promising results, suggesting potential benefits of homeopathy in managing blood sugar levels and improving the overall well-being of individuals with diabetes.
Is Homeopathy Accepted in the US?
Laws governing Homeopathy in the United States differ by state. Generally, individuals with a medical licence or healthcare license can legally practice Homeopathy. However, in some states, including Arizona, Connecticut, and Nevada, non-licensed individuals are also permitted to practice homeopathy.
In 1938, the U.S. Congress enforced a law requiring the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to regulate homeopathic remedies in the same way as non-prescription, over-the-counter (OTC) drugs. Therefore, homeopathic medicines can be purchased without a doctor's prescription.
Homeopathy in India
Homeopathy set in motion in India in 1810. Its official recognition began with the passing of the first resolution by the govt. in 1937, followed by another resolution in 1948. However, it was only in 1952 that homeopathy began gaining grounds in various states. In 1973, a Central Act was passed, recognizing this system of medicine. Now, India reaches out to the global market by exporting homeopathic products to Germany, the UK, and the USA.
Disclaimer: This information is intended solely for educational purposes and to provide reassurance to the public, particularly individuals with diabetes. It is not a substitute for professional medical advice or treatment, but when adopted, along with the standard medicine, it can help a diabetic patient lead a normal life, eliminating the need to be super conscious about the food. The effectiveness of homeopathy differs from person to person, and what may be effective for one individual might not work for another. It is essential to consult a qualified healthcare professional or a licensed homeopath before beginning any new treatment, especially for chronic conditions like diabetes.
Conclusion
Assimilating the different types and causes of Diabetes Mellitus is crucial for effective management and prevention of complicated conditions. While T1D is caused by an autoimmune reaction that cripples insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas, T2D develops owing to insulin resistance, which is influenced by lifestyle and hereditary factors, primarily. For people that are scouting for holistic options that help manage their diabetes, talking to the best homeopathy doctor can help. If you are looking for personalized treatment that addresses your symptoms personally and fosters your body’s inherent healing processes, homeopathy is the best option. Regardless of treatment route you want to take - considering conventional treatment alone or seeking advice from a homeopathy expert, it is important to work closely with healthcare professionals to devise a custom diabetes management plan that ensures the fruitful and best possible outcome for health and happiness. With that said, Homeopathy can’t be a substitute for conventional diabetes treatment, but it can only act as a supplement.
Homeopathy is a system of complementary and integrative medicine (CIM) that has been experiencing resurgence in public interest in the recent decades. The efficacy of homeopathic medicine lies in its remarkable ability at ultra-low concentrations, which is accomplished by the way of simple dilution. It is suggested that this could make Homeopathy an ideal treatment for both obesity and T2D. Homeopaths claim that homeopathic preparations in ultra-low concentrations, in tandem with the synergistic action of their ingredients, may present anti-obesity and anti-diabetic effects, possibly because of their hepatoprotective properties (their ability to prevent damage to the liver). This could position homeopathy as a preferred option in the treatment and management of diabetes in India, and it is gaining recognition in the USA as well.
