Can you please explain the causal inter connection between Type II diabetes and diabetic neuropathy/polyneuropathy -what causes which and how and what is a possible natural remedy that is effective, be it ayurveda, homeopathy or TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine). George Chakko, former U.N. correspondent at Vienna International Centre and now retired in Vienna, Austria.

Ans: Type II Diabetes is a condition where the body becomes resistant to insulin or doesn’t produce enough insulin, leading to high blood sugar levels. Over time, this high blood sugar can cause damage to various parts of the body, including the nerves. Diabetic Neuropathy is a type of nerve damage that can occur with diabetes. It is often caused by prolonged high blood sugar levels, which can damage the walls of the small blood vessels (capillaries) that supply the nerves with oxygen and nutrients. Polyneuropathy refers to damage to multiple peripheral nerves throughout the body. There are several natural remedies from various traditional medicine systems that may help manage symptoms of diabetic neuropathy. However, it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new treatment, especially if you have underlying health conditions or are taking other medications. They can help tailor a plan that’s safe and effective for you.

Ans: Hi Mega,
Please understand that based solely on your application, they have requested you to bring all your testimonials. Before applying, you should have asked the questions you mentioned. If you are not interested, someone else will benefit; if you are interested, please allow room for others.

If a stranger gives a wrong review, how will you handle that? Every person's experience is different. What is your goal—are you trying to match the course or not?

**Hostel:** Construct a house there, and then you can join the course.
**Mess:** Consider taking your mom with you so you won’t face any issues (though you might still eat unpleasant food outside).
**Placement:** Without learning the essential skills, you will not get a job. Instead, someone else may appear more qualified and secure the position.

You haven’t shared much about yourself. Are you a disciplined student? Do you have any bad habits? Do you actively participate in sports? How many hours do you spend on your education? How many hours do you spend on social media?

If the answers are not favorable, then follow this simple routine: Eat, sleep, and repeat. Enjoy life. That’s a nice solution I have provided.
