Shweta Sanjay Shete [2] | Dnyaneshwar Meshram [2] | Gurunath Khanolkar [2]
Abstract: Diabetes mellitus is more than just a lifestyle disease; it is a chronic illness. Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood sugar. Among the two main types of diabetes, one is one in which the body doesn?t produce insulin, and the other is one in which the body doesn?t use insulin in an efficient way. Due to the high prevalence of diabetes mellitus among the elderly globally, complaints of weakness are common. The complaint of weakness includes weakness of muscles, impairment, and frailty. It occurs due to neuromuscular dysfunction brought on by poor glucose control. . The main side effects of anti - diabetic drugs are G. I. tract disturbance, hypotension, and hypoglycemia. The weakness occurs when glucose levels in the blood are increased. Pancreas does not produce enough insulin to use it efficiently. As a result, glucose accumulates in the blood, and cells do not get enough glucose. The balya mahakashay contains ten drugs, which are madhur, tikta in rasa, ushna in virya with laghu, and snigdha in guna. They balance themselves to break the samprapti of madhumeha without disturbing the physiology of the body. In this way, the balya mahakashay eliminates the weakness of the body. Balya mahakashay shows a very unique chemical composition and shares quite similar rasapanchak. Most of the properties of the chemicals are anti - diabetic and help to prevent endocrinal diseases. The different combinations of churna of Balya Dravya treat generalized weakness, and the chemical properties help to maintain blood glucose levels within limits. To avoid further dhatu shosh, the balya mahakashay can be used with yukti praman for diabetes mellitus complications.
