Gurugram, Haryana, India | 20th January 2021: One of India’s leading Ayurvedic medicines developers, Butterfly Ayurveda, recommends people to take care of their sugar levels with Ayurveda, particularly during this pandemic since they are at huge risk of COVID-19. According to the International Diabetes Federation, the number of people with Diabetes in India is expected to rise to 69.9 million from 40.9 million by 2025. Indian subcontinent is commonly called the Diabetic capital of the world. Diabetes is a condition in which body sugar level is high. This could be due to faulty function of an organ near the stomach called pancreas which produces hormone called insulin which regulates the body sugar, or due to improper utilization of the sugar by the body. Sedentary lifestyle and unhealthy food habits are some of the important causative factors of the disease. If the disease is not managed properly at the right time it can cause serious complications in the body. It is seen a silent killer. Since this disease grows gradually, at the early stage symptoms are mild and are often ignored by people, therefore, detection of diabetes and managing diabetes becomes utmost important.
Some of the common symptoms of Diabetic patients are frequent urination and thirst, feeling tired and hungry, slow healing of wounds, pain in hands or feet and patches of dark skin. Many a times there are associated problems such as elevated blood pressure, cholesterol, variation in weight etc. Longstanding or chronic Diabetes condition can give birth to or aggravate other disease conditions like cardiovascular diseases, kidney problems, eye and skin diseases and more.
As per Ayurveda details, “Prameha” could be related to Diabetes. ‘Prameha’, which literally translates into ‘ Pra’ – Abundant, ‘Meha’ – urine or urination. Therefore, passing of frequent or large amounts of urine is associated with Diabetic condition, and this is a precursor for Diabetes Mellitus to set in which could be called as ‘Madhumeha’ of Ayurveda which means sweet urine or passing of large quantities of sweet urine. This is a state of hyperglycemia i.e. high level of blood sugar which could be due to defective insulin production in the body.
The major cause leading to Diabetes mellitus as per Ayurveda is aggravated Kapha dosha, which could be due to a sedentary lifestyle and poor eating habits. However, on the basis of predominance and derangement of doshas there are three main types of prameha which is further subdivided in twenty types i.e. ten kaphaj, six pittaj and 4 vataj.
Kaphaj, in which kapha affects lipid metabolism, muscle tissue development and fluids in the urinary bladder. Excessive consumption of fresh pulses, curd, til (sesame), urad or heavy and oily foods or sweet foods along with loss of exercise, oversleep increase kapha & meda (fat) that build up toxins or ‘ama’ that then pass through the urine and thereby cause prameha.
Pittaj, in which pitta aggravated due to excessive intake of hot, amla (sour), lavana (salty taste), alkaline & pungent foods, irregular diet, excessive exposure to the sun, anger and over exertion also create ‘ama’ and a sustained condition like this develops into prameha.
Vataj, in which vayu causes prameha. Use of excessive amounts of astringent, pungent, bitter substances in foods, irregular eating habits or eating cold foods, or excessive exercise, emesis and purgation can cause of this type of prameha.
According to Ayurveda, the treatment of prameha is also dependent on the individual’s body constitution i.e. prakriti. It is a requirement in today’s era to switch over to a healthy lifestyle along with a suitable diet and right treatment for the specific body type. Studies and research have shown that polyherbal formulations tend to have a good effect on all body types.
