Yoga practices for diabetes reversal: Fact or fiction? - Dr Joison Abraham
Overview
It's crucial for people with diabetes to maintain HbA1c below 7% as it indicates well-controlled blood sugar. This reduces the risk of serious complications like heart disease and kidney problems. Regular monitoring helps in effective diabetes management, promoting overall health and preventing potential long-term issues.
Contrary to the popular myth that yoga alone can cure diabetes, it's essential to clarify that while yoga offers health benefits, it cannot cure diabetes. Diabetes is a complex metabolic condition requiring a holistic approach, including lifestyle modifications, medication, and regular medical supervision. While yoga can contribute to overall well-being by promoting physical activity and stress reduction, it's not a standalone cure for diabetes. Effective diabetes management involves a combination of healthy lifestyle choices, proper medication, and ongoing monitoring, emphasizing the need for comprehensive strategies to control and mitigate the impact of the condition.
In this video, debunking some common myths about Diabetes, Dr. Joison, Consultant physician and Diabetologist from Ernakulam, Kerala, discusses the significance of maintaining HbA1c levels below 7% for individuals with diabetes while clarifying the misconception that practicing Yoga alone can cure Diabetes.
