Why are diabetic patients still having hyperglycemia despite diet regulation, antiglycemic medication
and insulin?
Diabetes and its complications were responsible for 8.8% of deaths worldwide in 2017. Many of those deaths could be avoided.
Western medicine manages the disease with lifestyle changes and medication. The aim of this work is to demonstrate how
in Traditional Chinese Medicine, all diseases are associated with the Yin and Yang imbalance, including diabetes. Although
western medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) share the diabetes treatment goals of reducing symptoms and
preventing complications, their approaches to conceptualizing, diagnosing, and treating the disease are very different. The
methods used in this study were two case reports and bibliographic researches of TCM’s medical literature and Five Elements
Theory on the pathophysiology of energy imbalances in diabetes, which lead to the manifestation of the clinical symptoms. The
treatment results, looking from the energy point of view, treat the individual as a whole; not only treating the disease but the
entire body, as recommends Hippocrates, the father of Medicine. After rebalancing the body’s energy, taking awareness and
precaution about internal (emotional) triggers, dietary factors and external (climatic) triggers, the symptoms’ improvement is
noticible. Concluding, when looking at patients as a whole, from the point of view of Yin and Yang energy and Five Elements
Theory, we can analyze aspects of the diet normally recommended and the use of hypoglycemic medication and/or insulin,
and have a greater balance of hyperglycemic diabetic patients, treating them according to the energy point of view with dietary
recommendation, acupuncture, etc.
