Yoga can balance our endocrine system by stimulating the pancreas to increase insulin production. Yoga can also help in massaging the liver and spleen and improving their functions.

Diabetes can cause because of unhealthy food habit and leading sedentary lifestyle. Yoga can improve digestion and can bring a positive change in our lifestyle by relaxing our mind and body.

Yogasanas for Treating Diabetes:

Listed below are some yogasanas that can help in treating diabetes:

• Mandookasana (Frog Pose): It is suggested that ‘Mandookasana’ can tone our pancreas, spleen and liver and can improve their overall function. This asana can also help in toning and regulating our intestinal functions. This can improve digestion and can treat diabetes.
• Shankh Prakshalan: Shankh Prakshalan or purification of intestine can make a person feel rejuvenated. Shankh Prakshalan can help in increased secretion of gastric juices, bile etc and in improving the overall function of our digestive system.
• Shalabhasana (Locust Pose): It is suggested that ‘Shalabhasana’ can help stimulate our pancreas, spleen and liver and improve their functions. This can also cause increased secretion of gastric juices, bile, etc. thereby treating diabetes.
