Abstract
Type 2diabetes is emerging as a serious medical and socioeconomic problem world over. The number of people with type 2diabetes mellitus are increasing due to population growth, ageing, and urbanization and increasing prevalence of obesity and physical inactivity. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of Naturopathy on the Fasting blood glucose (FBG), postprandial blood glucose (PPBG) levels and Body Mass Index (BMI) in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. A total of 50 patients were recruited and divided into two Groups. Group I (Intervention group = 32 sittings) were on both naturopathy and allopathic medication with diet control and Group II (control group) were on allopathic medication and diet control. The study parameters were assessed at baseline and after two months intervention. The result suggested significant changes in the levels of FBG and PPBG in both the groups and improvement was seen in Body Mass Index (BMI) only in group 1 patients.
