One of the most prevalent but challenging health issues that people face is Diabetes.

Diabetes affects nearly 11% of the world's population, according to studies. Additionally, it isn't easy to manage. But it not impossible. You can reverse prediabetes by following ayurvedic home remedies, changes in lifestyle and diet along with herbal treatment.

What is Prediabetes?

Prediabetes refers to having blood sugar levels that are slightly elevated, but not enough to reach the criteria for diabetes. If not treated, it can lead to diabetes that is a condition in which the body is unable to process glucose effectively, which causes the blood sugar level to rise. If not properly managed it can cause numerous health problems including heart attacks and stroke, blindness, kidney issues, and infections as well as other. However, making a few lifestyle changes will reduce the chance of developing your pre-diabetes into diabetes.

Ayurveda is an ancient science of medicine that suggests ways to manage diabetes. In this blog, you will run over valuable information concerning diabetes, its types, and how to treat and control them.

So, let's get started right away on creating a healthier life.

Types of Diabetes According to Ayurveda

There are twenty types of Prameha, four of which can be caused by Vata, six by Pitta, and ten by Kapha, according to Ayurveda. Madhumeha, a subtype of Prameha, is associated with diabetes and is characterized by sweet urine.

In Ayurveda, there are primarily two types of Prameha:

Avarana Dhatuksyaya and Dhatu Kshaya

According to Ayurveda, Avarana occurs when channels become blocked. Aggravated Kapha may be the cause of the blockage. Adult-onset diabetes results from this. Dhatu Kshaya, on the other hand, is the body's depletion of tissues. Juvenile diabetes may result from this.

Aside from that, Ayurveda views digestion as a fundamental process.

The digestive fire known as Agni must be in good working order for the digestive system to function effectively. Numerous issues can arise if this digestive fire is weak due to a Dosha imbalance or other factors. It causes a buildup of toxins that could disrupt the body's normal function. Additionally, it may weaken immunity, rendering the body incapable of fighting diseases and infections.

What are Signs of being Prediabetic?

Prediabetes generally has no symptoms and no signs. Darkened skin on specific body parts is one potential indicator of prediabetes. The neck, armpits, and groin can all be affected.

However, You may experience these symptoms if you have moved from prediabetes to type 2 diabetes. The following are some of the most prevalent type 2 diabetes symptoms:

• Excessive thirst
• Hunger
• Dry mouth
• Upset stomach 
• Urge to vomit
• Constant fatigue
• Blurry vision

Extreme thirst, persistent urination, excessive hunger, unintended weight loss, fatigue, wounds that take a long time to heal, and frequent urination are all symptoms of diabetes. 

Diabetes patients may also have additional health issues like kidney or heart problems. However, diabetes may prevent them from experiencing symptoms. This occurs as a result of elevated blood sugar. Due to high blood sugar levels, many people experience mild heart attacks and are unaware of them. As a result, maintaining control over blood sugar levels is critical.

What is the Main Cause of prediabetes?

According to Ayurveda, due to wrong dietary and lifestyle choices, the Tridoshas gets imbalanced, predominantly Bhej and Vata with the Aam. This affects the digestion and reduces the metabolism. These vitiated Doshas affect functioning of the liver and pancreas. The insulin produced by pancreas is reduced or obstructed with the Aam and Kapha; because of this the sugar levels in the body increases. With time the vitiated Vata carries the other vitiated Doshas in the urinary bladder causing increased micturition. This presents in the form of fatigue, tiredness, excessive sweating, frequent urination, excessive hunger and slow weight loss.

Can Prediabetic be Cured?

A person has prediabetes if their blood sugar levels are higher than normal. The condition can make someone more likely to get type 2 diabetes. However, prediabetes could be reversed naturally.

People can normalize their blood sugar and reverse prediabetes by losing weight and exercising frequently. Other methods, like lessening stress and getting more sleep, may also be helpful.

Risk factors: Who should be tested for diabetes?

Physically inactive people over 45 with a family history of diabetes (have a first-degree relative with diabetes) and overweight people with a BMI of 25 or more and any of the following diabetes risk factors:

• PCOS
• High triglycerides or low HDL cholesterol
• Abnormal blood sugar tests in the past
