Other common diabetic complications<\/strong><\/p>\n

The clonogenicity or diabetogenicity is not a new one, the Guru or Laghu words that are attributed to the substances are exactly the same. Vagbhat has stated that by consuming Guru food that is diabetogenic,high calory value then you should have only half of the satisfaction, when it is Laghu food then it should not be consumed to the full extent and some more space should be left over in the body.<\/p>\n

Our description from the text suggested half of the stomach volume should be filled by the food, one-fourth volume to be filled with liquids and the remaining one-fourth volume should be kept empty. I prefer any of these advice or in terms that the patient can understand all of these. Some of the patients can understand one of the said advice. It is also possible that some of the patients cannot understand anything. \u00a0But my advice to the patient is don’t bother about what we eat but instead bother about how much we need when we eat. \u00a0So all that advice would be never to eat repeatedly. Another very common piece of advice by a Diabetologist is to s eat more frequently, every two hours you have to take food. But my advice is not to have more than three foods. Every time try to eat lesser. In some cultures where one fistful of grain is collected every day for some charity. That kind of issue is possible depending on the culture and you may accept that. So that kind of advice could be more useful than going to the complex issue advised by a dietician.<\/p>\n

\u00a0The other parts is about the exercises. Again, best of the exercise advice is mentioned in Sushruta. The basic exercise mentioned by Sushruta is to pick up the food grains from the ground, prepare the food, and don’t keep that as a reserve. You have to move from one place to the other without staying in any place for more than a day. So that will not carry the food, you’ll be earning the food. \u00a0Though it may not be practically possible, the theme behind it can be definitely useful. Sushruta\u2019s advice would be like either you have to work in the field,plow the field, dig a well or follow the cows. All these physical activities are for Sthool Prameha patients while Krisha Prameh patient has to be protected from physical exertion. \u00a0If the patient is physically fit and overweight then any form of suitable physical activity should be advised.<\/p>\n

In present-day situation, it is not possible to perform many of exercises advised by Sushruta.<\/p>\n

It is possible to perform some kind of physical activity. I always advise patients to do open field exercises though going to the gym is of course not harmful. But once you go the gym, there will be always a prescription of complex food that is focused on building the body. But here \u00a0\u00a0our target is not to build the body but to burn calories. Food advised in the gym is more harmful than the benefits of exercise. So my advice to the patient is don’t bother with complex issues and to do some work in the field.\u00a0 \u00a0A simple version would be when you have to go to the gym, you have to pay for it,but if you dig some earth and then grow some plants you will gain something.<\/p>\n

That’s exactly what I do and that would definitely be useful wherever possible.\u00a0 Whether this advice is taken by patients seriously or not is another issue. Many of the patients may not take that seriously. It is quite difficult to convince patients of diabetes about these issues. But those who are convinced will be definitely benefited. Our job is to give advice. WHO has recommended guidelines for making a healthy body is to do at least 30 minutes of regular moderate-intensity activity on most days and more activities are required for weight control. Eat a healthy diet, avoid sugar and saturated fats and avoid tobacco use. Virtually it is same as described in Samhitas, only with difference of language and words, otherwise ii is\u00a0 with the same theme<\/p>\n

It is very commonly asked question whether to eat wheat or rice. Basically the wheat is comparatively Brihan Dravya than rice. So while advising low -calorie diet, rice is better than wheat. But in case of high calorie and nourishing diet, wheat is better than rice.<\/p>\n

According Charak, wheat is Guru, Sandhankar and Vatahar. Rice is to be used when there is less Vataprakopa lakshna. If patient is having constipation then rice is better than wheat. Nutritional value of rice and wheat are depicted in the following images.<\/p>\n

https:\/\/foodstruct.com\/compareimages\/rice-vs-wheat.jpg<\/p>\n

Calorie value of wheat is 7 times more than rice. All the components including magnesium and other minerals are more. So the ratio is 1:7 .<\/p>\n

The protein content, carbohydrate content of the wheat is more than that rice comparatively. So necessarily wheat is more guru than the rice.<\/p>\n

Whenever you have to prescribe a low calorie diet, it is always better to prescribe rice than the wheat.\u00a0 If a patient is a non-diabetic and emaciated then wheat will be better than rice. My advice is not to go on that whether you like wheat or rice, continue with Satmya is a more important issue which is not mentioned by any of the dieticians. Dietician they do not bother about that issue, conditioning which you are supposed to be.<\/p>\n

\u00a0I would advise continue whatever you need but with better regulation about its quantity and selection. And definitely if you have maintained that quantity, wheat or rice could be beneficial. One of the basic problems with wheat is Chapati or Parathas are usually deepened into ghee. Ghee in excess is definitely harmful, than one teaspoon of sugar added tea once in a day. My advice would be have a cup of tea with sugar once day rather than chapatti with ghee.<\/p>\n

Lots of myths are there in society related with use of sugar and jiggery. Our texts described it very clearly that more clearer colour of product derived from sugarcane then it would become more Madhura, Guru and Sheet. White sugar is clearer in colour, so naturally compare to sweet products derived from sugar, it will be having more diabetogenic property. Once after consuming sugar, within two hours there will be rise in blood sugar levels. It doesnot last long duration.\u00a0 Tea spoon of sugar taken once a day will not be harmful but if taken continuously it will be definitely harmful. Puran Guda is considered to be Pathya.<\/p>\n

Other Prameha<\/strong><\/p>\n

Many of Prameha described in text are not seen practically in clinical condition. Here only practically seen certain conditions are mentioned.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Udakameha\u00a0\u2013 Diabetes insipidus<\/li>\n
  2. Ikshumeha\u00a0\u2013 Diabetes mellitus<\/li>\n

      \n
    1. Kshara Meha \u2013 Alkalosis<\/li>\n
    2. Kala meha \u2013Haemoglobinuria<\/li>\n
    3. Nila meha \u2013 -do-<\/li>\n
    4. Rakta meha Haematuria<\/li>\n
    5. Manjishta Meha \u00a0 -do-<\/li>\n
    6. Hardira meha \u2013 Bilirubinuria<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        \n
      1. Vasa meha \u2013 Lipiduria<\/li>\n
      2. Majja meha – -do-<\/li>\n
      3. Hastimeha \u2013 Chronic renal failure<\/li>\n
      4. Madhumeha – -do=<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        All those clinical conditions which are mentioned in the texts or identifiable, their correlation with modern terminologies\u00a0\u00a0 is tabulated above, they can be seen practically. In the present context, they are totally different perspectives and they may not be under the same category of diabetes and clinically they are less frequent for not going into the details of managing those. So we have discussed the \u00a0Kaphaja Prameha in genral and \u00a0bit more of \u00a0Madhumeha.<\/p>\n

        Sandra meha – Proteinuria<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \u00a0\u00a0In this condition we can show a significant result and incidence is quite common. The patients presenting with the protein urea, they need to have evaluated thoroughly. Exact cause of protein urea has to be identified because it’s not that every patient is of the same category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
        TUBULAR<\/strong><\/td>\nOVERFLOW<\/strong><\/td>\nGLOMERULAR <\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
        Acute interstitial nephritis<\/td>\nMultiple Myeloma [Bence Jones protein)<\/td>\nNephrotic syndrome<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
        Immunosuppressive agents<\/td>\n<\/td>\nMembranous glomerulonephritis<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
        Analgesics<\/td>\n<\/td>\nMinimal-change disease<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
        Cryoglobulinemia<\/td>\n<\/td>\nPrimary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
        Sjogren syndrome<\/td>\n<\/td>\nFibrillary glomerulonephritis<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
        <\/td>\n<\/td>\nImmunotactoid glomerulonephritis<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

        <\/td>\n<\/td>\nDrug toxicity<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

        An area where we can really manage would be Nephrotic syndrome.\u00a0 Other conditions with proteinuria like multiple myeloma, requires a separate line of treatment. It is one of the incurable condition. Tubular conditions like interstitial nephritis patients who are taking immunosuppressive drugs, they also have many of the other practical risk issues. So management of those issues is very complex.<\/p>\n

        Nephrotic syndrome<\/strong><\/p>\n

        I just keep the commonest variety of the we come across and which we can manage would be Nephrotic syndrome. It’s quite important to identify the patient properly and only the minimal damage category has to be identified.<\/p>\n

        Tapia C, Bashir K. Nephrotic Syndrome. 2019 Jan. [Medline].<\/p>\n

        \u00a0\u00a0You will have more of the diabetic type two patient\u2019s complications or the neoplastic conditions in the later years. In younger ages there will be the focal pathologies either congenital nephrosis or glomerular sclerosis. Glomerular sclerosis patients can be managed better with our drugs. Whereas when it goes to the later complications, membranous conditions, it becomes difficult to be managed. The outcome will be relatively poor. Diabetic complications with its management has been already discussed in previous section.<\/p>\n

        \u00a0The amyloidosis in the older age that responds to our treatment better. So whenever there is a minimal change, then only we will be prescribing our medicine. So when I take up \u00a0Nerhrotic syndrome I will be always analysing the patient, selection of the right patient is a crucial and very complex issue. So full details may not be possible to explain. But the idea is to have a minimal damage patient and that the membranes have not yet damaged much. So that’s a very brief idea of how to select the patients.<\/p>\n

        My prescription would be<\/p>\n

        \u00a0Chandraprabha <\/strong><\/p>\n

        ,Mrityunjaya rasa,<\/strong><\/p>\n

        Amritarishta<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \u00a0<\/strong>Saptaparna Kwatha<\/strong><\/p>\n

        Salt restricted diet<\/p>\n

        Glucocorticoid dosage has to be tapered gradually<\/p>\n

        Saptaparna Kwatha is specifically mentioned as Sothahar in Sandrameha. You may have plenty of patients where the usual prescription of steroids can be avoided. \u00a0Most important part is selection of right patient. So before we plan the management and predict the prognosis, detail workout is necessary and selection of the patient is crucial. Nephrotic syndrome can be effectively managed with this treatment. If the patient is on steroids\u00a0 then it has to be tapered gradually.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
