Hello, Thanks for the query. There are a lot of suggestions people give about eating curry leaves, sadfuli (Vinca rosea) leaves, some insulin plant leaves etc. Plus taking of karela juice etc. These things are not supported by any clinical proof. If one wants to use those remedies, I have no objection. But I have no opinion about any of those. Most important is appropriate drugs, strict diet control and regular exercise. These are absolute essentials of blood glucose control. Thanks.
