Abstract
Background: Global burden of diabetes mellitus has increased consistently since past few decades. Unfortunately, India has emerged as a major contributor to this global burden of DM. Comprehensive Diabetes Care (CDC) utilizes combination therapy of Panchkarma, administration of herbal drugs and diet therapy.
Aims and objectives: The present study was planned to therapy along with diet therapy in patients with type 2 DM attending Madhavbaug clinics in Pune region.
Materials and methods: This was a retrospective study conducted between October 2018 and May 2019, wherein we identified the data of obese patients suffering from type 2 DM (HbA1c ≥ 6%) of either gender and any age, and who had attended the out
departments (OPDs) at multiple Madhavbaug clinics located in Pune region of Maharashtra. The data of patients who had been administered CDC with minimum 6 sittings over a span of 12 weeks were considered for the study.
Results: On analysing the results of HbA1c level in patients who had completed 12 weeks of CDC therapy, it was found that controlled diabetes (HbA1c<5(48%) . Other parameters like body mass index, body weight, cardio showed improvement at the end of 12 week CDC therapy. Dependency on conventional allopathic medications was also reduced.
Conclusion: From the findings of present study, CDC has been found to exert significant euglycemic action, and can serve as potent alternate option for management of DM.
