What is Diabetes?

Diabetes is a long-term condition where the body either does not produce enough insulin or cannot use insulin properly, leading to high blood sugar levels.

In Ayurveda, Diabetes is described as “Madhumeha” – a type of Prameha caused by imbalance of Kapha and Vata doshas along with weak digestion (Mandagni) and toxin accumulation (Ama). Ayurveda focuses on correcting metabolism, strengthening digestion, and rejuvenating body tissues for long-term management.

Common Symptoms of Diabetes

• Frequent urination (especially at night)
• Excessive thirst and dry mouth
• Sudden weight loss or weight gain
• Constant tiredness and fatigue
• Slow healing of wounds
• Numbness or tingling in hands and feet
• Blurred vision

Causes of Diabetes

• Sedentary lifestyle, lack of exercise
• Unhealthy diet rich in sweets, fried and processed foods
• Obesity or being overweight
• Genetic/hereditary factors
• Stress and poor sleep habits
• Weak digestion leading to toxin (Ama) buildup
