it is claimed that ayurvedic drugs may controle DM but it is totally blind faith. use antidiabetics to gt controle over it. ayurvedic powder mostly contain insulin sensitizer so have very little or no role.

Just taking some powder will not help to improve your health condition. (It is dangerous some times). What do your body says? Feeling healthy and happy?

But don't forget to check your current status of blood glucose levels if you are diabetic person. Consult a medical practitioner for support.

THANK YOU..... WHETHER WALKING AND YOGA WILL WORKOUT

[tthendral in reply to ACHARYA1234]

100 percent they supported me to recover from DM. Do walk on direct sunlight, particularly in evenings. Sweat! Early mornings after clearing start Yoga (do not try by yourself - Get your guru). I recommend Art of Living or Vethatri maharishi practices for diabetic patients.
