High stress levels are today a leading factor in the development of Diabetes. It is primarily hypertension, faulty diet and lack of physical exercise that are responsible for the increasing incidence of diabetes in young adults. With over two crores diabetics in India and the disease claiming 7.2 lakh lives every year, we need to realize the significance of this deadly disease.

Unlike diseases caused by germs, diabetes cannot be eliminated but it can be controlled. Homeopathy is the safe and non-invasive approach to controlling diabetes in individuals of all ages.  With diabetes treatment involving a  long-term commitment by the patient to carefully control the blood glucose level, it is   imperative that a diabetic should have a clear understanding of the disease and not suffer from any misconceptions. This is why Dr. Batra's Positive Health Clinic has a holistic treatment plan that includes expert counselling and guidance along with medication that is safe from any side effects.

There is a prevailing misconception that because of its sweet pills, homeopathy is not suitable for diabetics and as a result, diabetic patients are wary of choosing homeopathy for treatment. The root of this lies in another misconception that diabetic patients are prohibited from consuming any sweets and sugar. No scientific data supports this statement. However, overeating (especially of sweets) may lead to obesity which can certainly trigger diabetes in those who have a tendency to develop it.  Besides, the homeopathic pills are so small and the amount of lactose so miniscule that it does not affect sugar intake.

Another common myth is that long-term treatment of Diabetes is not possible through homeopathy.  In actual fact, a combination of Homeopathy and Allopathy proves most effective in controlling the disease. Homeopathy is a non-invasive, safe and holistic approach of medicine that attacks every ailment at its roots. Homeopathic medicines act on the beta cells which in turn are responsible for the control of sugar in the body.   In a recent clinical trial in  Greece it was found that patients treated with homeopathy along with oral diabetes medicines showed 97% improvement whereas those on only oral medication showed only 47% improvement. Thus homeopathy improved the condition by 50%.
