Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder, which can be severely aggravated by the wrong kind of diet. Hence the following dietary guidelines must be followed:-

Reduce or even completely eliminate sugar in the diet. A hypoglycemic diet must be taken.
Obesity is one of the leading causes of diabetes. Hence the food must be devoid of fats and cholesterol producing substances.
Include at least one bitter dish in every meal. (3) Ayurvedic Treatment for Diabetes

If the person is obese, then diabetes becomes more of a problem. In such people, an elaborate Ayurvedic system of treatment is used. The preliminary methods are:-
1. Apatarpana (de-nourishment)
2. Shamshodhana (cleansing)
  In these methods, the fats built up in the body are reduced by de-nourishment of the body. This is followed by a cleansing of the toxins that have accumulated in the body. The panchakarma method of cleansing the body may be used.
  
  Once this is done, then the body has to be rebuilt. This is done by:-
3. Santarpana (replenishment)
4. Brumhana (promoting body bulk) If the person is chronically ill with diabetes, then these methods work. This is effective in treating diabetes in people who are underweight. By these methods, the essential nutrients are allowed to flow into the body and the body is rebuilt in a healthy manner.
Home Medications
1. Continue a diet of bitter gourd cooked in ghee for a period of three months. This will bring the diabetes down by a significant amount.
2. Soak a few seeds of fenugreek in water and keep them overnight.
  
  Have these softened seeds in the morning.
3. Have a breakfast of fruits such as oranges, tomatoes and jamuns.
4. Soak dry raisins in water overnight. Drink the water they were soaked in the morning.
5. Prepare a choorna (fine powder) of dry amalaki. Put this powder in water and let it stand for some time. Then filter the water and squeeze the juice of a lemon in it. This must be had early in the
  morning.
6. Prepare a choorna of amalaki, turmeric and fenugreek taken in equal amounts. Take this choorna with honey every morning, afternoon and evening. This system provides relief from diabetes within about two months.
7. Make a mixture of the juices of mango and jamun equal amount.this
  must be taken trice a day.

My six year old son has been diagonosed with Type 1 diabetes. He started vomiting one day and within six hours he had breathing problems. We took him to hospital and he was given saline. Later on they started insulin. Now ten days have passed for this incident. He is still on R7/N3 insulin and a total of 16 units daily. He has 10 units in the morning and 6 units in the evening. I have always been inclined to Ayurveda and believe that Ayurveda can prevent /control diabetes. I want your advice as what can be done to prevent or control diabetes. He is a school going kid and since morning 6am to evening 3 pm he is in the school. I can bring him to any institute during his school holidays. His body structure is lean and weighs 18.3 kgs. His height is 116 cms. And he is very playful and very active child. He is not fussy in eating and eats almost everything. Please advise what can we consider as treatment to control his glucose/sugar levels in his body. email : manueldcorreia@hotmail.com

As your son is digonosed with Type I diabetes then he has to take insulin injections.Take care of his food and others like a diabetic person. Give him proper diet as he is a growing child but avoid starchy and sugary products but there is no need for strict restrictions as in an adult as children are more physically active and growing. As far as Ayurveda is concerned, In this case it can be given as an adjuvent therapy and not as first line of treatment. Devika Senior Nutritionist Lifecentury inc.
