Traditional Medicine and Diabetes

Traditional medicine has been used for centuries in the management of diabetes, particularly in regions where conventional medical resources are limited. Practices such as Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), and herbal remedies employ natural substances like bitter melon, fenugreek, cinnamon, and ginseng, which are believed to help regulate blood sugar levels. These treatments often focus on restoring balance in the body, enhancing insulin sensitivity, and promoting overall well-being. While some traditional therapies show promise, their efficacy and safety require more rigorous scientific validation. Integrating traditional approaches with conventional treatments can offer complementary benefits but should be guided by healthcare professionals to avoid potential interactions and side effects.
