Abstract : Diabetes mellitus, known as Madhumeha in Ayurveda, is indeed characterized by elevated blood glucose levels due to deficiencies in insulin production, action, or both. Ayurvedic texts provide detailed insights into its causes, progression, prognosis, complications, and management strategies. The holistic approach in Ayurveda considers dietary, lifestyle, environmental, and genetic factors as contributors to diabetes. Treatment modalities are personalized, taking into account the type and stage of the condition. It emphasizes a balance in lifestyle, diet, and natural remedies for managing diabetes effectively.The passage emphasizes the need for scientific validation of Ayurvedic dosage forms and compound formulations mentioned in classical references, particularly those widely used in clinical practice. Despite advancements in medical science, challenges persist in managing diabetes, prompting attention to unexplored areas of medical knowledge. Ayurveda is presented as offering safe and effective approaches for such conditions. Designing a relevant research model is highlighted as a key challenge to examine the safety and efficacy of Ayurvedic interventions while adhering to fundamental principles and a systems approach. The mention of a single case study suggests a focus on illustrating the application and outcomes of Ayurvedic methods in managing diabetes. It would be interesting to delve into the specifics of the case study and explore how Ayurveda played a role in treating Madhumeha (diabetes). The case report highlights a successful reversal of diabetes mellitus through Ayurvedic intervention, with a notable decrease in HbA1C from 13.1% to 7.6% within four months. While valuable as a case study, further research is needed to establish the broader effectiveness of Ayurveda in managing diabetes mellitus on a larger scale.
