Diabetologist 's  Response
Hi, welcome to our site. I am Dr Saumya Mittal.

Read your query. That is a very significant question and i appreciate your problem. I will try my best to answer your query

The question you have asked is not a simple one. To answer this question, one needs to know the several systems of medicine. I do not claim to be an expert in all of them. But as a diabetologist, I have read bits of alternate medical therapies and I will share some information from my experience.

A lot has often been said by the homeopathic doctors regarding the control of many chronic conditions including diabetes. The claims have been coming for a long long time. But there has not been much conclusive proof.

As far as naturopathy is concerned, a lot of techniques they suggest do help a lot in diabetes. The water based therapies are being found to be good for nerves and eyes.

Ayurveda has some natural medicines- herbs and sats (solutions/syrups)- that are known to reduce the sugars.

However the degree of control from these techniques has not been validated and is not reliable. Besides, it depends on your levels of sugars as to the control that can be achieved ny these simple techniques.

Exercise, weight control and controlled diabetic diet has been known to be effective in all.

I hope this helps you. Inform the reports mentioned above so i can be of help further. Best of luck.

I have given you the answer to the maximum considering the information provided. The results of the tests could further enhance my answer to you.

Please do understand that some details could be extracted from a detailed history and examination.

Looking forward to your return query with the details asked so that I can help you further.
