Dealing with DIABETES MELLITUS – an illness beyond medicines

            We deal with a plethora of stresses in life. The stress of suffering from diabetes is one of them. The stress can start mounting the minute one is pricked for blood collection. The interesting part here is how each one of us responds to a high blood sugar level. One of us would “ok” the verdict. It means that it has been accepted at the level of facts. On the other hand we have someone question the credibility of the laboratory suspect that the reporting was wrong. Here, it is one’s belief that questions the facts. We may also have an individual who would deny any existence of this illness. This individual is dealing with the illness in an emotion oriented manner. This is but one part of the illness. There are various issues like socioeconomic stature, food habits and fads and belief system to be considered when dealing with diabetes. It is therefore important to attend to this illness in a holistic way.

               

            Do we need medicines to deal with diabetes? The answer is yes. But do we need only medicines to deal with diabetes? The answer is NO! Medical treatment is one aspect of the many things which are needed to treat diabetes.

An illness beyond medicine-

Diet

It is not about what not to eat. It is about what is the right thing to eat. One need not starve oneself to lower the blood sugar. Instead one can have nutritious food while making sure that the blood sugar levels are in the required range.

Exercise

Exercise not only helps in burning excessive calories but keeps the mind and body in a healthy state.

Meditation

Meditation is a good way to keep calm. Health is at its best when one learns to keep calm even in a chaotic situation.

Improving coping skills to face diabetes

Coping or dealing with the illness is as important as the other aspects of treatment. Stress of illness can be managed efficiently with positive coping skills.  

Role of homoeopathy

Homoeopathy is a holistic system of medicines which works on the principle of treating the individual in a holistic manner. An individual is considered in totality which means his illness too is a part of the treatment. It has thus a lot to offer in the treatment of diabetes mellitus not only in terms of lowering blood sugar and maintaining it but also helping the individual transform such that he/she become well equipped to deal with the illness .
