3. There have been great strides in diabetes treatment and it is the most curable of all metabolic disorders if diagnosed early and treated optimally.

4. Contrary to orthodox medical prognosis that diabetes, a chronic degenerative disease, can only be survived through medications or insulin therapy and accompanying threats of decreased life expectancy or organ malfunction; very careful dietary regulation and physical activity or exercise like walking, swimming, bicycling, stationary cycling and jumping rope can facilitate a good control and sometimes even complete reversal of type II diabetes.

5. The increased uptake and utilization of glucose (caloric expenditure approx. 5-10 cal / min for light to moderate physical activity) by exercising muscle can lower blood glucose. In obese overweight diabetics, a negative calorie balance produces mobilization of stored fat for meeting the energy demands leading to a weight reduction.

6. Fenugreek seeds contain high fiber useful to diabetics and trigonelline – an alkaloid known to reduce blood sugar levels. 25g to 50g of fenugreek (methi) seeds may be taken with lunch and dinner in two equal doses of 12.5g or 25g.

7. The seeds can be consumed as such after overnight soaking in water or in powder form as a drink in water or buttermilks, 15 minutes before the meal or incorporated in rice, pulses, curries, chapattis and vegetables. The requirement of anti-diabetic drug can be reduced with the use of fenugreek.

8. Ayurved Research Foundation has come up with a miracle supplement called Diabkil containing Fenugreek, Neem, Karela, Safed Musli, Kali Mirch, Vidarikand, Rasont, Sajji Khar, Jaiphal, Shilajit etc. for preventing diabetes, or reducing its severity and potential complications like heart attack and stroke, neuropathy, nephropathy, atherosclerosis, delayed wound healing etc. – if you already have it.

9. So, if you have high blood sugar or if you have been diagnosed with pre-diabetes or diabetes and keep wondering as to how to keep blood sugar level in control, all the above doctrines can slash your risk of diabetes, shrink dangerous abdominal fat that causes inflammation in cells (making them even more resistant to insulin - a hormone that controls blood sugar) by 20% after 14 weeks, dramatically boost energy levels and be the ‘lifesaver’.

10. Walking is the key component of your diet- exercise plan designed to keep blood sugar level in control.

11. A Canadian study found that individuals who walked briskly for about an hour a day along with a 15-min. belly blast routine (criss - cross, leg kick, leg circle) 2 days a week is the ultimate science- based workout combination to build lean muscle, reduce body fat and keep blood sugar level in control.

12. Physical injury, surgery and emotional distress should be avoided as much as possible because these cause a sudden increase in secretion of catabolic hormones which may precipitate the disorder.

13. Diabkil capsules taken regularly before meals can correct endocrine disorders, malnutrition, impaired secretion of insulin, metabolic derangements, and increased liberation of glucose into the circulation from the liver etc. to free you from the clutches of the debilitating specter of diabetes!
