| Herbs used in the Ayurvedic Treatment of diabetes |

- Bael (Aegle marmelos)
The leaves of the bael have anti-diabetic properties. Their extract must be consumed, preferably with a pinch of black pepper in it.
- Bitter Gourd (Momordica charantia)
This is perhaps the most well-known food in the treatment of diabetes. The seeds of the karela, as it is locally called, have charantin, which helps in reducing the sugars in the blood. As the name suggests, the bitter gourd is indeed bitter and difficult to eat. But it must be eaten in as much bitter form as possible (without sweetening) or its properties will be lost.
- Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum graecum)
Fenugreek can suppress the excretion of sugar through the urine. Thus it can relieve the symptoms of diabetes.
- Garlic (Allium sativum)
Garlic has been shown in Ayurveda to contain the best vata pacifying properties. Since diabetes mellitus is a vata disorder, garlic is beneficial. Garlic contains allicin, which works at reducing the sugar level in the blood. It also brings about the disintegration of cholesterol in the body.
- Jamun (Syzygium cumini)
The jamun is also known as the Indian plum(indian black berry). It has a specific action on the pancreas, which controls the conversion of starch to sugar. The seeds of the fruit have better effects than the pulp.
- Neem (Azadirachtha indica)
The neem or the Indian margosa tree is known for its medicinally useful bitter leaves and other parts. A paste of its leaves taken daily has excellent properties in reducing the sugar content of the blood.
- Onion (Allium cepa)
The onion has hypoglycemic (i.e. low sugar) properties. In Ayurveda, it has been investigated thoroughly for its rasayana property. Along with these properties, onion is also a mild aphrodisiac and it can promote the strength of the body. With all these properties, onion becomes a very valuable food in the treatment of diabetes.
- Turmeric (Curcuma longa)
Turmeric is another useful remedy for diabetes. Its effects are felt better if it is t taken along with amalaki (Indian gooseberry).
- Amla (terminilia offocinialis)
