Patients need to be clear that the use of Chinese herbs to lower sugar is a form of treatment, not a prescription. Diabetes belongs to the category of thirst in Chinese medicine, and Chinese medicine is often used clinically to help treat it by identifying the symptoms. However, to date there are no exact statistics on the number of herbs used to lower sugar, and there are no so-called 23 types. For diabetic patients in TCM clinics, the commonly used classical and experimental prescriptions include blood activating and sugar lowering drink, sugar making formula, true wu soup, sour date soup, etc. For diabetic patients, do not listen to the so-called prescriptions, it is recommended to regulate blood sugar through Chinese medicine or Western medicine under the guidance of a professional physician in a regular hospital. In addition, a low-sugar diet, increased exercise and weight loss can help prevent and control the rise of blood sugar and avoid or alleviate diabetes-related complications.
