EFFECTIVE DIABETES CARE

EFFECTIVE DIABETES CARE
Welcome to Vaidyagrama, your haven for holistic healing and rejuvenation. Our mission is to offer a transformative healthcare experience by blending the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda with modern wellness practices. 

TYPE 2 DIABETES AYURVEDA VIEW
​Type 2 Diabetes is seen and treated as a metabolic (dhatu-paaka) disorder characterised by (agni) insulin and metabolic deficiency, Ayurveda offers a unique perspective on Diabetes.
           ​Rather than treating it solely as a sleep-breathing issue, Ayurveda views Diabetes as part of a broader imbalance within the body, often linked to what is known as a Weak-Agni-Toxin complex. 
           ​This involves not just addressing the symptoms but also eliminating underlying, gut and metabolic deficiencies and toxins, and restoring wellness to bodily systems. Ayurveda provides a comprehensive support to Diabetes. ​Ayurveda provides holistic support by focusing on overall well-being, metabolic balance, and lifestyle improvements, which may contribute to better health outcomes

TYPE 2 DIABETES WESTERN view
Western medicine views type 2 diabetes as a chronic condition where the body becomes resistant to insulin or does not produce enough insulin to regulate blood sugar levels effectively. The primary treatment approach focuses on managing blood sugar levels to prevent complications. The main treatments include: 
Lifestyle Changes, Medications, and Insulin Therapy.
           Regular blood glucose monitoring to adjust treatments as needed. Western medicine emphasizes controlling symptoms and preventing long-term complications like heart disease, kidney damage, and neuropathy. In short, ​while research says there are ways, the medicine hasn't started refining the evidence appropriately, incorporating the techniques effectively.
           ​Managing diabetes requires a multifaceted approach. Ayurveda complements conventional care by addressing lifestyle, diet, and overall well-being to support long-term health.

There is a growing body of research supporting the role of diet and lifestyle modifications in reversing type 2 diabetes. Here are some key studies and findings:
  1. DiRECT Trial (Diabetes Remission Clinical Trial)
    • Study: Lean MEJ, Leslie WS, Barnes AC, et al. "Durability of a primary care-led weight-management intervention for remission of type 2 diabetes: a two-year open-label, cluster-randomised trial." Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol. 2019.
    • Findings: This study demonstrated that a low-calorie diet intervention delivered in primary care settings could lead to remission of type 2 diabetes in almost half of the participants at 1 year and about a third at 2 years.
  2. Look AHEAD (Action for Health in Diabetes) Study
    • Study: Gregg EW, Chen H, Wagenknecht LE, et al. "Association of an Intensive Lifestyle Intervention With Remission of Type 2 Diabetes." JAMA. 2012.
    • Findings: This long-term study found that intensive lifestyle interventions, including dietary changes and increased physical activity, significantly improved diabetes control and could lead to partial or complete diabetes remission in some individuals.
  3. VIRTA Health Study
    • Study: Hallberg SJ, Gershuni VM, Hazbun TL, Athinarayanan SJ. "Reversing Type 2 Diabetes: A Narrative Review of the Evidence." Nutrients. 2019.
    • Findings: This review highlights the effectiveness of a well-formulated ketogenic diet in achieving significant improvements in glycemic control and even diabetes remission.
  4. Newcastle Diet Study
    • Study: Taylor R, Barnes AC. "Can type 2 diabetes be reversed?" Diabetologia. 2018.
    • Findings: This study provides evidence that a very low-calorie diet can reverse type 2 diabetes in people who have had the disease for a relatively short period. The researchers suggest that significant weight loss can lead to a reduction in fat inside the liver and pancreas, restoring normal insulin function.
  5. PREDIMED Study (Prevención con Dieta Mediterránea)
    • Study: Salas-Salvadó J, Bulló M, Babio N, et al. "Reduction in the incidence of type 2 diabetes with the Mediterranean diet: results of the PREDIMED-Reus nutrition intervention randomized trial." Diabetes Care. 2011.
    • Findings: This study showed that adherence to a Mediterranean diet, rich in healthy fats, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, reduced the incidence of type 2 diabetes.
These studies indicate that dietary and lifestyle changes can have a profound impact on managing and potentially reversing type 2 diabetes. The interventions typically focus on weight loss, improved diet quality, and increased physical activity.
