Understanding Diabetes in India:
Diabetes, once a rarity, has now become a household term in India. With a dramatic surge in its prevalence over the years, India stands as the world’s diabetes capital.
The numbers are staggering—Over 100 million Indians grapple with this condition daily.
Closer to home, its even scarier. A survey conducted by Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Pallike (BBMP) in 2021, alarmingly stated that over 50 % Of Bangaloreans are diabetics!
To confront this escalating health challenge, it’s crucial to comprehend diabetes in its entirety
Demystifying Diabetes: Types and Statistics:
Diabetes, or Diabetes Mellitus, a condition affecting our endocrine system is fundamentally caused by our body’s inability to properly break down the food we eat. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all ailment; it manifests in various forms.
The primary types are:
- Type 1,
- Type 2, and
- Gestational diabetes.
Type 1 is an autoimmune condition where the body attacks its own pancreas, the master gland that releases the hormone to help you break down sugars. Once the pancreatic cells are destroyed, the disease becomes irreversible.
Type 2, accounting for over 90% of diabetic cases, occurs when the pancreas cannot catch up with the insulin demands of the body, or develop insulin resistance. This is when in spite of the insulin being produced, the body is not able to use it. Type 2 diabetes is closely tied to lifestyle factors like nutrition and exercise.
Gestational diabetes occurs during pregnancy. As the demand for insulin production goes high during pregnancy, if your lifestyle and eating habits are bad, it may lead to gestational diabetes.
India’s diabetes statistics are eye-opening. With India now being home to the 2nd Largest base of diabetic cases in the world, it’s evident that there’s a pressing need for innovative approaches to tackle this epidemic.

Why the Holistic Perspective Matters:
What sets these therapies apart is their holistic perspective. We intend to tackle a cure for diabetes by not just popping a pill, but working to change the person’s biochemistry. They don’t just scratch the surface; they dive deep into the root causes of diabetes.
Rather than merely alleviating symptoms, they seek to transform lives by addressing the very essence of the condition.
Consider it a departure from traditional approaches that primarily focus on symptom suppression.
This might mean changing the way you sleep, breath, eat and even poop!
Understanding the Intricacies:
Alternative therapies acknowledge the intricate web of factors that influence diabetes. Each element plays a role in your disease status, from your circadian cycle to the amount of sunlight exposure you receive, from your stress levels to past traumas.
This holistic outlook means that solutions aren’t one-size-fits-all but personalized to cater to individual needs.
It’s a holistic, patient-centric evolution that empowers individuals to take charge of their health, providing hope for a brighter, diabetes-free future.
Advantages of Alternative Therapies vs. Allopathy in Diabetes Management
The advantages of alternative therapies over traditional allopathic treatments for diabetes management are significant.
Unlike allopathy, which often focuses on symptom suppression, these therapies actually aim to improve pancreatic health and boost insulin sensitivity.
At Clinic Living Plus, we provide you with personalized, holistic solutions that cater to individual needs, acknowledging the intricate web of factors influencing the condition.
Additionally, our alternative therapies offer you a deeper understanding of your body’s biology, empowering you to take charge of your health.

This patient-centric approach fosters not just symptom management but a complete transformation offering you hope for a brighter, diabetes-free future.
Exploring the Alternative Landscape: Clinic Living Plus Diabetes Therapies That Make a Difference:
Ozone Therapy:
Ozone therapy is a form of alternative medicine that involves the administration of ozone gas into the body for various therapeutic purposes. Ozone (O3) is a molecule composed of three oxygen atoms, in contrast to the more common oxygen molecule (O2), which has two oxygen atoms.
Consider this as a hormetic (temporary) of stress to the body, forcing the body to release anti-oxidant action and accelerate internal healing.
Ozone therapy enhances blood circulation and oxygen delivery to tissues, potentially improving oxygen supply to cells, including those in the pancreas responsible for diabetes management. By improving pancreatic function, ozone therapy helps with diabetes management.
Peptide Therapy:
Peptide therapy is a medical treatment approach that involves the use of peptides to address various health conditions and promote overall well-being. Peptides are short chains of amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. They play essential roles in various biological processes in the body, including regulating hormone regulations, immune modulation, and enzymatic activities.
In peptide therapy, synthetic or naturally occurring peptides are administered to individuals to target specific functions within the body. These peptides can be tailored to address a wide range of health concerns.
Peptide therapies, for the first time in India, are available at Clinic Living Plus. The peptides we use, regulate blood sugar levels by mimicking the effects of the naturally occurring hormones.
IV Nutrition:
IV nutrition, also known as intravenous nutrition or IV therapy, is a medical treatment in which essential nutrients, vitamins, minerals, and fluids are administered directly into the bloodstream through an intravenous (IV) line. This method allows for the rapid delivery of nutrients to the body, bypassing the digestive system and enabling the body to absorb them more efficiently.
This is particularly important for diabetics as gut health is often compromised, leading to nutritional deficiencies.
Intravenous nutrition delivers essential nutrients directly into your bloodstream, promoting overall well-being and aiding in diabetes management.

Clinical Nutrition:
The most important part of your treatment is knowing what to eat, how much to eat, and when to eat. Your glucose response to foods is as unique as your fingerprint. So while there can be some similarities in the types of food a diabetic should include, your nutrition plan will still be unique to you and different from others.
Food can be your biggest medicine, provided, it is also your lifestyle. Thus, we don’t do calorie counting or carb restrictions on the program. This program is designed to help you change the way you think about food. We use foods and dishes from your ethnic background, the kind you are used to eating anyway to help heal your body.

Infrared Sauna:
An infrared sauna is a specialized sauna that uses infrared light to generate heat and warm the body directly. Unlike traditional saunas that heat the air around you, infrared saunas use infrared light waves to penetrate the skin and raise your body’s core temperature
Time spent in our Infrared Saunas helps improve circulation by supporting your body’s ability to take up blood glucose, as exercise would, and reduce oxidative stress, benefiting diabetes management
Biofeedback Learning Techniques:
As the name suggests, our Biofeedback techniques work on measuring real-time data of your body’s functions like muscle tension, skin temperature, and even brain activity. We empower you with relaxation practices to manage stress, a significant contributor to diabetes.
Biofeedback is a technique that can be used as part of a comprehensive approach to managing diabetes. While it is not a direct treatment for diabetes, biofeedback can help individuals with diabetes gain better control over their body’s responses to stress and other factors that can impact blood sugar levels.
Biofeedback is a method that provides individuals with real-time information about their physiological processes, such as heart rate, muscle tension, skin temperature, and more. This information is typically presented through visual or auditory feedback, allowing individuals to learn how to regulate these processes voluntarily.
