I recently went for a diabetes test. My results are as follows: Fasting sugar 126 mg/dl and post breakfast sugar 229 mg/dl. Am I diabetic? Please advise which treatment is best, such as Homeopathy or Ayurveda, and also suggest a good diet?

Fasting sugar (126 mg/dl) and post breakfast (229 mg/dl) indicate diabetes, as per ADA criteria. You should visit a doctor to confirm diagnosis and start treatment. Choose allopathy for quicker sugar control, but diet and lifestyle changes are key in all systems. Follow a low carb, high fiber diet, and include 30 mins walk daily.

He is 41 years old, and today we got his HbA1c test result, which is 7.1 percent. Does this mean he is diabetic? We are really worried. Should he start medication immediately, or is it possible to control it with diet and lifestyle changes? Please advise.
