Diabetes is the condition that results from the poor functioning or non-functioning of the cells of pancreas. Homeopathy offers remedies for the diabetics and shows several ways to normalize the blood sugar levels. In contrast to the allopathic system or modern medicine, the homeopathic approach is remarkably different. A homeopathic doctor determines the type of treatment that is appropriate for each patient.



Homeopathy offers great hope for the diabetic patients by providing an alternate way that effectively controls the blood sugar level. The system uses minimal quantities of medicine to reduce the blood sugar and in addition, improves the overall health of the diabetic patients.



The branch of homeopathy is based on the principle that like cures like. So instead of trying to find remedies for the illnesses, homeopathy boosts the body mechanisms involved in controlling the disease and promotes the healing capabilities of the body. Homeopathy believes that any disease is caused by a combination of the internal factors, external factors and the emotional state of the patient.



In homeopathy, the doctor specifically attends the individual and not the disease. This is because the symptoms of diabetes will be different for different individuals and moreover, the manner in which the blood sugar level varies is also individual specific. As a result, the medicines used to cure diabetes vary from person to person. But in general, phosphorous, phosphoric acid, lactic acid, etc are used in homeopathy to provide a cure for diabetes.



In homeopathy, the history taking plays a very important role in the treatment of diseases. The physical and emotional nature of the patient, the likings and dislikes, phobias and personality assessment comes under the purview of history taking. A detailed history permits the doctor to familiarize with the symptoms of the patients and choose the most appropriate medicine for each case.



The medicines used in homeopathy are obtained from plants, vegetables and fruits. These natural compounds are good antioxidants as well and some have the properties similar to insulin. It is true that homeopathy does not offer a sudden cure for diabetes. It offers a long term cure and it may even take one or two years to find an observable change in the diabetic patients. But the low doses of medicines used, the principle of natural healing and the ability to be complemented with other treatment modalities makes it a popular choice for the public.



Homeopathic treatment cannot be considered as a substitute for dietary regulations. Just like any other form of treatment, diet control and proper exercise plays a key role in controlling the blood sugar level. Maintaining an active life style is as important as the medicinal treatment and one should not underestimate the role of life style modification in controlling diabetes.
