Just to rewind, Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic disorder in which there are high blood
sugar levels over a prolonged period. This high blood sugar produces the symptoms of frequent
urination, increased thirst and increased hunger. Madhumeha, one among the twenty varieties
described in Ayurveda can be correlated to Diabetes mellitus.

2. Diabetes Ayurvedic view
According to the predominance of dosha and their relation with dushyas( body tissues), the
Ayurveda has classified the disease into 20 distinct types. It can again be sub classified into (a)
Vata pramehas 4 Numbers, (b) pitta pramehas 6 numbers and (c) Kapha pramehas 10 numbers
. Amongst the 20 types of pramehas, the most important one is Madhumeha, which can be
interpreted as Diabetes mellitus and is also considered as incurable condition.
Food, drinks and activities which increases fat, urine and kapha are the general cause. Intake of
Foods which are sweet, sour, salt, fatty, heavy to digest, fresh grains, beer, meat of animals of
marshy land, sugar cane juice are listed as the main cause of Prameha ( Sanskrit name of
Diabetes). Other reasons are less exercise and sleeping. Prameha is described in Atharvaveda
(1500-1000 BC) Kauchika Soothra part as a major ailment.
Common symptom– increased turbid urine and so named Prameha.
Pathology of Disease as per Ayurveda
Kapha , one among three somatic humors is increased due to intake of above said food and
activities increases and localise at naval area, vitiates water, sweat, pitta, fat, plasma and muscle
tissues.
According to experts in Ayurveda “pittadharakala” described in Susruta Samhita can be
corrleated as the “Islet tissue “of pancreas and “Pitta Thejus” produced from the pithadharakala
as the hormones like insulin, glucagon and pancreatic digestive enzymes etc etc.

and exercise alone aren’t sufficient for managing diabetes. But the effectiveness of these
4. medications depends on the timing and size of the dose. Medications you take for conditions
other than diabetes also can affect your blood sugar levels.
Treatment concept of Ayurveda
Our true self is consciousness.
The cure of disease is self-knowledge
The great Indian principle of healing can be greatly applicable to Diabetes as it is a chronic
disorder and self- knowledge is the master managing chronic life style disorders. When we go
through the aetiology of Diabetes, various dietary, lifestyle and psychologic factors disturbing the
fat and carbohydrate metabolism has been listed. As a clinician, when having a close eye to the
diabetes, it’s very clear that the disturbance of fat metabolism is the basic cause of Diabetes and
all other come after it as the disease progresses.
