Abstract:
Diabetes is a metabolic disorder characterized by chronic hyperglycemia with disturbances of carbohydrates fat and protein metabolism. It is a serious complication. The lifestyle and day today circumstances are playing major role in occurrence of this. Majorly inefficient and insufficient secretion of insulin is the causative factor. Amla or Indian gooseberry is widely used in the Indian system of medicine and believed to increase defense against diabetes. Amla has been used by Indian doctors for many chronic conditions including blood sugar control Vitamin C, tannins and flavonoids present in amla are very powerful antioxidants. Because of thse, amla is showing wonderful results in the treatment of Diabetes mellitus. To study the effect of Amla in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), 30 T2DM subjects were selected as experimental group (N=30) from Acharya Nagarjuna University in Guntur of Andhra Pradesh. A control group of same size (N=30) was selected from Guntur city. The experimental group of 30 patients was given a medium sized fresh Amla (approximately 35 g) on a daily basis for 6 months. Subjects were advised to consume the fruit in a raw form daily before breakfast. During the course of supplementation no modification in the diet or medication was made for both experimental and control groups. The anthropometric measurements and Biochemical parameters like FBS, PPBS, HBA1C and lipid profile were monitored at the end of supplementation period. Supplementation of one medium size Amla (35g) for 6 months led to a significant decrease in the FBS,PPBS,HBA1C,Lipid profile values in the experimental group, while there were no significant changes in the control group.
