Revolutionizing Diabetes Management: My Personal Journey with CDC



Revolutionizing Diabetes Management: My Personal Journey with CDC in Patients from Marathwada Region

As founder of Madhavbaug clinics and the pioneer behind the Comprehensive Diabetes Care (CDC) program. I'm excited to share with you a detailed insight into our seminal study, "Efficacy of Comprehensive Diabetes Care (CDC) Management Program in Elderly Male Patients of Type II Diabetes Mellitus: A Retrospective Study," which was published in the International Journal of Diabetes and Endocrinology in 2018.

The Genesis of CDC

My journey in developing the CDC program stemmed from a deep concern about the rising prevalence of Type II Diabetes Mellitus, particularly in India. Witnessing the limitations of conventional therapies, I was motivated to explore an integrative approach that combines the wisdom of traditional Ayurvedic practices with modern nutritional science.

The Study's Core: A Detailed Insight

Our research, conducted meticulously from July 2017 to January 2018, aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the CDC program specifically in elderly male patients. The participants, all above 60 years with HbA1c levels greater than 6.5%, underwent a series of treatments under the CDC program, which included Ayurvedic procedures like Snehana, Swedana, and Basti, coupled with a specially designed diet plan.

Groundbreaking Results

The outcomes of the study were highly encouraging. We observed a significant reduction in HbA1c levels, BMI, body weight, and abdominal girth among the 34 patients who completed the program. Moreover, there was a noticeable decrease in their dependency on conventional diabetes medications. These results not only validated the efficacy of CDC but also highlighted its potential as a safer and more effective alternative to traditional treatments.


Reflections on the Study

The success of the CDC program reaffirms my belief in the power of an integrative approach to healthcare. It's not just about managing the disease but about enhancing the overall well-being of patients.

A Heart-Healthy Diet: My Preventive Approach

A Heart-Healthy Diet:  My PreventiveApproach As a preventive cardiologist, I've spent years understanding how diet affects heart health. My approach, deeply rooted in both modern science and traditional wisdom, centers around a comprehensive dietary strategy that goes beyond mere calorie counting. Here, I unfold the various layers of dietary practices that contribute to a robust heart. Caloric Balance for Heart Wellness  Balancing caloric intake is crucial for heart health. Excessive calories lead to obesity, a significant risk factor for heart disease. I recommend a careful assessment of daily caloric needs.  An intake of 1500-1700 calories per day , adjusted according to individual lifestyles, can help prevent heart-related issues. Complex Carbohydrates: The Heart-Friendly Choice   Complex carbohydrates, unlike their simpler counterparts, offer sustained energy and don't adversely affect heart health.  I encourage incorporating whole grains like millets, o...

Can Ayurveda and Modern Medicine Improve Chronic Heart Failure Together?

When we think of Ayurveda , many of us wonder whether it can truly fit into modern cardiological practice. Can this ancient, nature-based science work alongside modern medicine to improve the lives of patients suffering from chronic heart failure ? That’s exactly the question we asked ourselves at Madhavbaug . The Current State of Chronic Heart Failure in India Chronic heart failure is a well-known and serious condition, and we are all familiar with the medical parameters used to assess it, such as: Maximum aerobic capacity (VO2 Max) NYHA classification (New York Heart Association) NT-proBNP levels Interventional treatments , including implantable devices and cardio-resynchronization therapy While modern medicine offers many interventions, the reality remains that heart failure patients continue to face a difficult journey. A 2017 study published in The Lancet showed that 23% of heart failure patients in India die within the first year of diagnosis, a number that exceeds the global...
