Hello, Thanks for the query.
I have seen the details mentioned. The glucose levels mentioned are very high. Since you have not mentioned following his weight, height, extent of daily exercise, HbA1c% & lipid profile, it is difficult to comment.

Hello. Diet, lifestyle, etc affects pp.
Do not keep sitting or lie down within 20 minutes after your meal. Go for a walk, or wrap up things in the kitchen or take stairs.
Eat food items that have lower glycemic-index. You can include beans, whole grains, most of the vegetables and fruits; however, steer clear of potatoes, white bread, white rice, breakfast cereals, corn flakes, bagels, etc.

Thanks for the Query.

Need to know few more details like FBS, PPBS and HbA1c.

Giloy juice is basically taken to improve immunity. It has no direct effect on blood sugar.

Your blood sugar can be under control with safe, effective and potent alternatives.

For complete advice and prescription you can book an online consultation with me on Lybrate. Thank you. Take care till then.

He has been given treatment according stool report which is sufficient to cover infection. 4 or 5 times stool / day is not abnormal if baby is active and gaining wt. I suggest to change his eating habits since motions have started with weaning time as symptoms started 2 months ago. Continue breast feeding and withdraw some of complementary food and thereafter add another one once he starts digesting.

I would rank can notharis as the number one homeopathic remedy for uti when the symptoms agree to it. Can notharis has been a very helpful homoeopathic medicine in treating cases of utis in people who have recently had an attack of streptococcal infections. This medicine can also be used in treating cases where there is recurrence, which means that people suffer from repeated attacks of these infections. It is indicated when the patient experiences a burning pain while passing urine. The patient...more
