INDIAN KINO- PLANT INSULIN
HEARTWOOD OF PTEROCARPUS MARSUPIUM
DIABETES AND INDIAN KINO
Diabetes is a common endocrine disorder, affecting over 100 million people worldwide.
The World Health Organization predicts that this number may increase fivefold in the near future. Complications are the major cause of diabetic morbidity and mortality.
In India , diabetes affects 1– 5% of the population. Well-known they’re from as early as 700 – 200 BCE, its two types are a genetically based disorder and one resulting from "dietary indiscretion." Diabetes affects several physical processes and organs.The most common conventional treatment for diabetes is insulin, which has prominent side effects.
Neither insulin nor other modern pharmaceuticals has been shown to modify the course of diabetic complications. In conventional treatment, diabetes is identified as "insulin dependent diabetes mellitus" (IDDM) or "non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus" (NIDDM).
The modern management of diabetes in spite of many advances still remains unsatisfactory. Drug intolerance, hypersensitivity and resistance to insulin etc. makes it all the more important to search for safe, effective and cheaper remedies.
Some such remedies are available from the Indian system of Medicine “Ayurveda”. In recent years, the use of herbs traditionally employed in Ayurveda has yielded positive scientific results. Worldwide, there is an increasing interest in the use of herbs/plants as most of the modern drugs are costly and tagged with serious side effects.
One such highly effective natural hypoglycemic agent is Indian Kino (Pterocarpus Marsupium).
Pterocarpus marsupium (INDIAN KINO)
A potent flavonoid in this tree has been shown to help regenerate beta cells in the pancreas as well. In a study conducted in India , Pterocarpus helped balance blood sugar and contributed to an increase in beta cell .
Pterocarpus marsupium demonstrates to reduce the glucose absorption from the gastrointestinal tract, and improve insulin and pro-insulin levels. It also effective in beta cell regeneration, No other drug or natural agent has been shown to generate this activity.
Pterocarpus marsupium has demonstrated impressive blood glucose lowering activity.
In all of these studies Pterocarpus marsupium was able to reverse the damage to the beta cells and actually repopulate the islets. Another property displayed by Pterocarpus marsupium is insulin like activity. This is completely separate from the stimulation of insulin production from the repair of beta cells.
Pterocarpus marsupium may lower blood sugar through an unrelated pathway of that of insulin making it useful in the treatment of both types of diabetics. All of these effects were accomplished without any type of adverse reactions or toxicity.
SOME IMPORTANT WEBSITES REGARDING INDIAN KINO RESEARCH
TIMES OF INDIA –NEWS NETWORK-MUMBAI
KALPANA JAIN -FRIDAY OCT 8
First the good news - even those diabetics who do not respond to conventional drugs have hope. The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) has clearly established that a herbal product, Vijaysar, obtained from the bark of a tree, helps control blood glucose levels.
And now the bad news. The Research, which would have benefited scores of diabetic patients, has remained confined to scientific discussions.
After years of collecting substantial evidence, the benefits of the research have not reached patients, as sufficient efforts have not been made to push the herbal product into the market. For India and other countries, this could have been a promising herbal product, with enough scientific backing. India has the largest number of diabetics in the world - an estimated 40 million, and is faced with the world's largest diabetes epidemic. Changes in lifestyle at putting many more at risk.
Vijaysar, which is extracted from the plant Pterocarpus mrsupium, has shown positive results in the treatment of diabetes in several trials conducted by the ICMR at centers spread over reputed medical colleges across the country. All the results have encouraging. The benefits seemed to be all the more significant in the case of patients who did not respond to conventional diabetes drugs. There were no side effects.
Unfortunately, the drug still remains out of bounds for most suffering diabetics.
