Brief Summary
Modification(s)  

Rationale: Prediabetes carries high conversion risk in India (~18%/year) with no specific pharmacological treatment in modern medicine beyond lifestyle advice. Ayurveda frames it as a Kapha-predominant, Bahudoshaja state where kledaharana through Shodhana — specifically Niruha Basti — is the treatment of choice. Both formulations are modified by substituting Takra as the Basti dravya (Deepana, Kaphahara, agni-stimulating, and probiotic in nature).

Aim: Compare efficacy of the two modified Bastis with lifestyle modification in prediabetes.

Objectives: (1) comparative clinical efficacy; (2) identification of Lactobacillus probiotic strains in the formulations; (3) effect on gut microbiota via stool culture; (4) pharmaceutical–analytical standardisation.

Design: Randomised comparative clinical trial, n=20 (Group A MMYB / Group B MBAB, 10 each), 18-month study duration, follow-up 16 days. Ages 18–60, HbA1c 5.7–6.4%, BMI 22.2–29.9, Basti-arha. Standard exclusions (diagnosed DM, pregnancy, major systemic illness, immunocompromise).

Intervention: Deepana-pachana with Chitrakadi Vati, Sadyo Virechana with Eranda taila, then 480 ml Basti daily × 8 days, Nati-kshudharta state.

Assessment: Subjective — Angasada, Sheeta priyatva, Atisweda, Karapadadaha, Shithilangata, Gala-talu shosha (0–3 scales). Objective — FBS, OGTT, HbA1c, urine, CBC, stool culture (pre/post). Plus organoleptic, pH, viscosity, RI, ash value, HPTLC and emulsion tests on three samples of each formulation.
