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.
