Saurabh Garg | Ruby Rani Agarwal | Dinesh Kumar Goyal
Abstract: The study presents a fusion of Ayurvedic principles and modern understanding of diabetes mellitus, focusing on the escalating global pandemic, particularly in India. It highlights the convergence of Madhumeha (diabetes) and Diabetes Mellitus through shared etiological factors, pathogenesis, clinical presentations, and complications, emphasizing the disruption of Medovaha Srotas (fat metabolism channels). The study underscores the potential of HbA1c as a dependable marker for diabetes control due to its ability to reflect long-term glycemic status, overcoming short-term dietary influences. The discussion section showcases a pivotal table illustrating the correlation between the severity of Medovaha Srotodushtiand key diabetes markers, revealing a pattern that reinforces their interrelation. Also, the critical role of Medovaha Srotas in diabetes progression and establishes a significant positive correlation between HbA1c levels and Medovaha Srotodushti manifestation, indicating its potential as an indicator for disease severity. The study's clinical implications lie in early detection and Ayurveda-based management strategies, bridging traditional and modern approaches. Amid the global diabetes crisis, this research contributes an interdisciplinary approach and holistic insights to curb the escalating prevalence of diabetes. By connecting Ayurvedic wisdom with contemporary medical knowledge, it offers a pathway for comprehensive therapeutic strategies that transcend conventional boundaries.
