Millions of individuals worldwide suffer from diabetes, a fast growing dis functioned metabolic state of body. The majority of the food you eat is converted by your body into sugar, or glucose, which is then released into your bloodstream. Your pancreas releases insulin in response to an increase in blood sugar. Insulin functions as a key to allow blood sugar to enter your body’s cells and be used as an energy source. Diabetes is a long-term (chronic) illness that affects how your body uses food as fuel. When your body metabolism get imbalance, your body either produces insufficient insulin or uses it improperly. Too much blood sugar remains in your circulation when there is insufficient insulin or when cells cease reacting to insulin. And this metabolic state of body is called as Diabetes. According to WHO estimates, there will be 463 million cases of diabetes worldwide in 2020. By 2030, that number will increase to 10.2% (578 million), and by 2045, it will reach 700 million cases. Diabetes is directly responsible for 1.5 million fatalities worldwide each year. Over the past few decades, there has been a steady rise in both the number of cases and the incidence of diabetes. The most prevalent type of diabetes, type 2, is brought on by a number of variables, including genes and lifestyle choices, although the main factors contributing to metabolic imbalance are-

Obesity, overweight, and lack of physical activity.

Insulin sensitivity.

Family history and genes.

Mutations in genes.

Disorders of hormones.

The focus of the campaign in 2023 is on delaying or preventing type 2 diabetes and diabetes-related complications, with the slogan “Know your risk, Know your response” as ignoring this imbalance metabolic state of body can eventually lead to major health issues like renal disease, heart disease, and eyesight loss. Common for-most Diabetes symptoms includes:

Always feeling hungry or thirsty

Experiencing fatigue beyond normal

More frequent urination than normal

Effortless, unexplained weight loss.

Enduring injuries or cuts that take a long time to heal

Having eyesight problems

Having tingling or numbness in your feet or hands

Although diabetes treatment differs depending on the type of diabetes, many things remain the same. Diabetes is a condition that is largely self-managed. Successful self-management calls for knowledge, skills, and the readiness to change eating habits, up physical activity, monitor blood sugar levels, take medications, and schedule regular checkups with a doctor. It’s crucial to regulate cholesterol and blood pressure in addition to blood sugar. You may naturally lower your blood sugar levels by following these easy steps:

Engage in regular exercise.

Consume more fiber.

Consume a lot of water.

Consume sensible serving sizes.

Keep a check on stress levels.

Along with this, utilization of herbal treatments to assist in blood glucose regulation gives remarkable results in reversal of imbalanced metabolism. BVG LIFE SCIENCES advocate a very effective plant extract based herbal formulation “DIAB-CAPULES AND SYRUP” which works wonders in Diabetes and reverse the imbalances. One of the main herbs used to treat diabetes is Gymnema, also known as Gurmar, because it has the ability to “demolish sugar” from the blood by reducing the desire for sweets. Methi, or fenugreek seeds are high in fiber and help to control blood sugar levels. One fruit that lowers blood sugar levels is Jamun. It is among the powerful remedies prescribed by Ayurveda. Two more popular herbs that are beneficial in treating diabetes are Neem and Tulsi, which enhance the body’s ability to regulate insulin. Another potent herb that helps control blood sugar levels is Giloy, sometimes known as Guduchi.
