Brief Summary  

For the prevention of Diabetes specially type 2 diabetes and related complication it is a need to control this hyperglycaemia stage not only after diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus but even before in prediabetes stage which is developed due to insulin resistance. Prediabetes is an intermediate step before manifestation of full blown DM. Prediabetes is an intermediate stage between normal and diabetes state wherein blood glucose levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be considered as diabetic.Prediabetes is a state of high risk for developing Diabetes with 5 to 10% cases converting to Diabetes per annum.This fact itself triggered the need of review of this disease. Prediabetes means a ‘pre diagnosis of diabetes’.Every third person who tested their blood sugar in Mumbai has prediabetes, according to a five-year data analysis of 2.9 lakh patients by a national laboratory. According to a study published in the Indian Journal of Medical Research in 2018, the estimated prevalence of prediabetes in India is 14% - and that’s just those who have been tested .Effective intervention at prediabetic step would help stop/slow progression to DM..

As the name suggests, prediabetes is a precursor or an early warning system to diabetes. Various herbs mentioned in the Ayurveda literature have been found to be useful for reduction in blood sugar, decrease in insulin resistance, and improvement in beta cell activity .Etiology of diabetes is multifactorial and multi targeted herbal drugs would be comparatively safer than modern drugs and may be used in management of prediabetes and prevention of progression to diabetes.Therefore, this study aimed to see whether Nishaamalaki can reduce the conversion from prediabetes to type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Combination of Nisha amalaki formulation has tridoshahara property but specically Kaphahara property. Its acts on vitiated Kapha, Meda and Kleda, It has capacity to improve tone of saptadhatus and reduces Dhatushaithilya. Due to its Deepan and Pachan properties, Dhatri nisha Churna works on Jatharagni and Dhatwagni, which reduces the Ama and kleda present in the body. It improves Dhatwagni which helps to improve disturbed metabolism. Nisha amalaki having Deepan, Pachan and Anuloman properties. By Deepan, Pachan, Anuloman properties it works on srotodushti and glucose metabolism. Due to its Ruksha Guna this kalpa is doing Kleda Shoshana which is useful in Samprapti bhanga of Prameha that is Prediabetic.
