ABSTRACT

Prameha, a metabolic disorder elaborated in Ayurvedic classics, shares clinical resemblance with diabetes mellitus (DM), a major non-communicable disease of global concern. With increasing incidence worldwide, especially of type 2 diabetes, the search for holistic and cost-effective management strategies is imperative. Ayurveda describes a multidimensional approach involving Nidana Parivarjana (avoidance of causative factors), Panchakarma (purificatory therapies), Shamana (pacifying measures), and Rasayana (rejuvenation). Yoga, as a lifestyle intervention, complements this by improving glucose metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and mental well-being. This review aims to explore the synergistic role of Panchakarma and Yoga in the management of Prameha w.s.r. to Diabetes Mellitus, by integrating evidence from classical Ayurvedic texts and contemporary research studies.
