In the whole world, nearly about 24% of the population is suffering from diabetes which is referred as Madhumeha in Ayurveda. Its percentage may go as high as 40-45% in 2020. Worldwide in every 10 seconds, one person gets affected with DM, every 5 seconds, one person dies of DM and every 6 seconds one person gets blindness due to DM. WHO emphasize that there is intense need to know the graveness of the disease and to understand the possible ways of preventive aspects of this disorder. Unhealthy Lifestyle is a major risk factor in the development of Madhumeha (DM). As per Ayurveda, day Sleeping, lack of exercise, laziness are the major risk factors for Madhumeha (S.Ni. 6/3) Apart from this, as per Acharya Sushruta, the comfortable seat and luxurious sleeping bed can also predispose to diabetes as far as lifestyle factors are concerned. Lifestyle management principles to control Madhumeha are given by Acharya Charaka in C.Chi.6/50 which includes use of different types of exercise, Udwartan and Udgharshan (deep Massage and rubbing with applicants), Cream application of Sandle etc, Water Bath and Heat/Sun Bath This is very innovative idea given by the Acharya Charaka to control diabetes in terms of lifestyle management apart from dietary and drug management. Exercise had been said as the best for reducing weight and most beneficial to those who take high carbohydrate and fatty diet (S.Chi.24/38-44). Different modalities of exercise have been stated for different economic classes of DM patients by Acharya Sushruta (S.Chi. 11/11). Udwartan and Udgharshan (massaging and rubbing) is said to be Kapha Meda lytic (S.Su. 24/51-56). Avoiding the risk Factors (Nidan Pariwarjan) is the mainstay of treatment as per Ayurveda. Thus avoiding the risk factors such as physical inactivity, day sleeping, comfort sleeping, sitting in conjunction with other lifestyle related measures such as massaging, rubbing and cream application are very much important in controlling the Madhumeha (DM).
