Natural Diabetes Treatment in Siddha Medicines

Diabetes is a modern lifestyle disorder where the blood sugar levels increase and result in its elimination through urine. The high amount of sugar in the blood means lesser production of insulin hormones through the pancreas. Siddha medicines strengthen the pancreas, regulate the smooth flow of insulin and enhance glucose tolerance. In Siddha, diabetes is known by different names such as MadhuMegham, Pramagham, Neerizhivu, etc.
