Diabetes is exhibiting a rising trend globally. According to data from The Lancet<\/strong>, the number of diabetes patients worldwide has reached 529 million and is projected to increase to 1.3 billion by 2050. Currently, the main classes of medications for diabetes treatment are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Reducing sugar absorption<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    For instance, Acarbose works by forming a barrier in the intestines to block sugar absorption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. Promoting insulin secretion<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Medications like insulin and Metformin accelerate the breakdown of sugar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      While these medications can lower blood sugar levels, they do not cure diabetes. The root cause of diabetes lies in insufficient insulin secretion or impaired function, leading to ineffective sugar breakdown in the body. Thus, further research is needed to understand the causes of pancreatic damage and how to repair it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The concept of “energy” in Western medicine parallels the idea of “Qi” in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM); both are intangible yet fundamentally exist. Energy is essential for life, and a deficiency can lead to illness. Diabetic patients struggle to convert sugar into energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      In TCM, the spleen and stomach are crucial for transforming food into Qi. A weak spleen leads to poor food transformation, resulting in Qi deficiency and insufficient energy supply to the organs. Qi is akin to “food” for the organs; when it is lacking, the organs can suffer, potentially leading to diabetes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      In TCM, diabetes is referred to as “Xiao Ke” (\u6d88\u6e34\u75c7) and was known as “San Xiao” (\u4e09\u6d88\u75c7) before the Ming Dynasty, indicating that the condition weakens the three burners (San Jiao), which encompass the upper body and all internal organs. The overall weakness in diabetic patients stems from this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Since the spleen governs transformation, a deficiency can hinder the conversion of food into blood and energy, often leading to complications like cardiovascular diseases. Spleen deficiency can also cause liver Qi stagnation, resulting in blood vessel blockages. Vision issues, such as cataracts, relate to liver deficiency, as the eyes are considered the “orifice” of the liver. Symptoms like lower limb swelling, gangrene, prostatitis, and urinary incontinence are linked to kidney deficiency. Sleep disturbances arise from an unsettled heart spirit and insufficient heart Qi, while skin itching is due to weak lung Qi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      These complications stem from spleen deficiency, which fails to provide adequate Qi to the organs. Therefore, relying solely on insulin and hypoglycemic medications only maintains the status quo rather than curing diabetes. Moreover, long-term use of these drugs may worsen pancreatic damage and lead to drug dependency. These medications inhibit sugar intake and restrict dietary options, fundamentally obstructing the body’s ability to absorb sugar and subsequently affecting Qi production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      In TCM, the primary focus for treating diabetes is to strengthen the spleen and kidneys, regulating the spleen and stomach first, then replenishing kidney Qi to ensure sufficient and stable Qi levels. When Qi is abundant, the liver, heart, lungs, and kidneys will have ample energy, preventing other complications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      A well-known medical text, Shishi Mijilu<\/strong> (\u300a\u77f3\u5ba4\u79d8\u5f55\u300b), records an effective formula for diabetes: 10g of dried bitter melon, 6g of frost-dried mulberry leaves, and 6g of sophora flower buds. It is essential to use this formula under medical supervision and not in isolation, as its properties are somewhat cold; bitter melon, in particular, is cold in nature and should be combined with warming herbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Bitter Melon<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Clears liver heat, removes impurities from the liver, brightens the eyes, and protects the nervous system and cardiovascular health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        • Frost-Dried Mulberry Leaves<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Clears lung dryness, nourishes Yin, and aids Qi in smoothly reaching the kidneys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            \n
          • Sophora Flower Buds<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            Rich in chromium, they promote insulin production and prevent cardiovascular complications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            All three herbs possess cold properties, making them unsuitable for long-term use in diabetic patients with spleen deficiency. Through previously mentioned Qi-replenishing formulas and acupuncture, diabetes can potentially be cured, provided there is a scientific understanding of the underlying causes, allowing everyone to achieve health and longevity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
