Diabetes - An Epidemic Of Modern World!

Every 3 patients out of 10 visiting us have diabetes. By the term Diabetes, it shouldn’t be equated with blood/urine sugar only. Blood/Urine sugar is only one of the components of Diabetes. So in evaluating the efficacy of any treatment regime, it shouldn’t be judged only from Blood/Urine sugar, but from overall improvement. Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine, 11th Edition, clearly mentions that there is no correlation between blood sugar level and possibility of patient going into complications. It states that increased blood sugar doesn’t mean that patient will go into complications. Reduced blood sugar doesn’t mean that patient will not go into complications.

Before coming to us it is already stuffed into their mind that they have to take anti diabetics as their life long partner. Giving these anti diabetics all responsibility of controlling their sugars and then becoming off guard, they feel they are doing enough for their health.

• What is so surprising if we see diabetes complications on rise in spite of patient’s loyalty to system of drugging?
• Haven’t pharmaceutical companies and their white coat salesmen cheated their patients enough in pushing them into vicious circle of drugs and disease??
• Have we done our responsibility as a doctor (which originates from Latin word docere- to teach, to instruct or point out) by bringing health, life and living into their awareness?

In this era where diseases have become part of fashion world, the ones who are normal and healthy feel out of place. Though there are many diseases gloriously walking down the ramp, diabetes is the show stopper. Being health facilitators lets shift the focus from diabetes and bring the glamorous health as highest rated model. By understanding the mind body mirroring concept of health - disease and spirituopsychosociosomatic model of causes we can bring an innovation in stereotypical treatment of diabetes.

According to a surprising research done by a Japanese professor , true causes of disease are 50% spiritual, 25% psychic, 15% social, 10% physical.

Diabetes is a life style disease and can be miraculously treated with proper changes in diet and life style DIET has to be regulated. Wheat and its preparation have to be stopped completely and should be replaced by millets.

Diet plan - Eat twice daily for span of 55 min each and then having buttermilk, lemonade, coconut water and plain water in between entire day works very effectively.
