The present invention relates to the field of diabetes preventing and treating externally with traditional Chinese medicine, and more particularly, to a Chinese medicine composition for preventing and treating externally diabetes and a method of using the same.
Diabetes is a chronic disease resulting in increased blood glucose and excretion of diabetes (urine contains glucose) caused by metabolic disorders of glucose, fat, protein, water and inorganic salt resulted from the reduction of insulin secretion in the body and genetic reasons. It affects mostly the middle-aged people. It is manifested clinically by “three to one less (sanduoyishao)”, namely, polydipsia, polyuria, polyphagia and weight reduction.
The direct cause of diabetes is the reduction of insulin secretion. If you are in depression and the spirit is stimulated, or have diseases such as concussion, encephalitis, cerebral hemorrhage, advanced neurological dysfunction would emerge and even the pituitary gland, adrenal gland, pancreas would be affected, thereby resulting in metabolic disorders due to neurohumoral regulation dysfunction. Additionally, increasing demand for insulin by the body due to all factors such as infection, pregnancy that can increase the metabolism leads to a relatively insufficient insulin secretion such that the glucose utilization in the body is affected to increase blood glucose. When the blood glucose concentration increases above the kidney threshold (that is the retention threshold of glucose in kidney; the glucose can be discharged from the urine usually when the blood glucose concentration is above 160-180 mg %), the glucos-uria appears to be diabetes.
Diabetic patients are often prone to complications such as suppurative infection, tuberculosis, atherosclerosis, nerves, kidney, eye lesions, which may endanger life when ketoacidosis occurs severely.
Early diabetes often has no obvious symptoms, often found by the doctor in the event of complications. Diabetes is generally characterized by the symptoms of weakness, dizziness, drowsiness, backache leg pain, dry skin or itching, men impotence, women's irregular menstruation.
Diabetes is medically within “emaciation-thirst diseases (xiaoke)”. Chinese traditional medicine thinks that this disease is mostly caused by lung, stomach, kidney dryness due to yin deficiency leading to diabetes (xiaoke) resulted from alcohol and strong taste addiction, damage of spleen and stomach, movement and transformation failure, internal heat, swift digestion and fluid consumption in stomach; or indulgence to damage the yin, hepatic stagnation to fire.
There are areas in human feet, i.e. the reflective area, which corresponds objectively to various organs in the body. The physiological function of the body's organs can be regulated by stimulating these reflective areas, thereby achieving the purpose of treating diseases and self-care. Our feet have 62 basic transmit areas, which are in whole similar to a microcosm of the human body that concerns about the health status of each parts in human body all the time. Medicine absorption and delivery of medicine can be improved and accelerated by stimulating the reflective areas regularly with herbs feet bathing to facilitate smoothness of blood, function regulation of each organ under the dual role of stimulating induction in reflective areas and the medicine, thereby improving the pathological changes for organs and the body's immunity.
With the improvement of life quality, people pay more and more attention to health care; they soak feet in hot water every day to promote blood circulation and eliminate fatigue; those who focus more on health care soaking their feet with traditional Chinese medicine. The latter utilized the principle that the boiling water can foster the medicine to filtrate into the human body, so as to ensure the medicine to penetrate the whole body meridian through the foot and adverse reactions resulted from oral overdose not to occur.
Diabetes is a common metabolic endocrine disease, and is listed as one of the top ten difficult diseases by the World Health Organization. The incidence of this disease is extremely high, and tends to increase year by year; according to New York Times, a recent study shows that the prevalence of diabetes in China ranks first in the world, and about one-third of the world's diabetes patients are in China It is even worried that the blood glucose of a half has reached the “pre-diabetes” level, a phenomenon which is found after testing on nearly 9.9 thousand people by this study. “China is currently one of the countries with the highest prevalence of diabetes in Asia and the country with the largest number of people with diabetes in the world,” the study said. Now, there are more than 92.4 million people with diabetes, and one person is suffering from diabetes every 30 seconds. And also this situation continues to deteriorate, so the prevention and treatment for diabetes is a top priority, and is the most important.
At present, the treatment for diabetes mainly uses western medicine and insulin, and patients need to take drugs and fight insulin throughout their life; western medicine and insulin have large side effects, monotonous curative effects, and mostly aims at solving the problem of blood glucose increasing temporarily while the symptom is cured but the roots have not; in recent years, the theoretical study on diabetes and clinical efficacy have greater progress than ever before. But as western medicines still have greater effects on the damage of metabolism and organs and most have some side effects, having medicines for a long time not only hurts the body, but also is easy to allow the virus, bacteria to produce resistance, thus limiting its clinical use and making the treatment control be undesired.
It has a long history for treating diabetes by traditional Chinese medicine. However, daily decoction of traditional Chinese medicine costs time and efforts with complicated procedures. In general, the traditional Chinese medicine is administrated orally with a larger dose and has a poor taste. Long-term administration of traditional Chinese medicine also poses certain side effects on human body to hurt the body and be apt to allow the virus and bacteria to produce resistance such that the treatment effect is less and less obvious.
The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the above-described deficiencies of the prior art by providing a traditional Chinese medicine composition for the prevention and treatment of diabetes.
Another purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for using the Chinese medicine composition to prevent and externally treat diabetes.
The present invention mainly solves problems of the treatment for diabetes mainly using western medicine and insulin that have large side effects, monotonous curative effects, and mostly aims at solving the problem of blood glucose increasing temporarily with no consideration of comprehensive treatment; using traditional Chinese medicine that has side effects, time and energy cost for daily decoction and poor taste.

A traditional Chinese medicine composition for preventing and treating externally diabetes according to the present invention, the clinical experiment data of which are as follows:
Process: weighing accurately 40 g astragalus membranaceus, 38 g salvia miltiorrhiza, 55 g stigma maydis, 45 g cortex lycii radicis, 28 g wolfberry, 28 g prunella vulgaris, 28 g mulberry leaf, 28 g cornus officinalis, 38 g lycopodium clavatum, 33 g the root of bidentate achyranthes, 45 g rhizoma chuanxiong, 28 g Chinese atractylodes, 28 g yam, 28 g puerarin, 28 g fructus arctii, 28 g cassia twig; grinding the mixture of above traditional Chinese medicines into 160-200 mesh sieve powder, then putting them into several small bags made of nonwovens respectively, each being 45 g, and enclosing as backups.
Application method: putting a 40 g medicine bag into a foot pot, brewing with 2000-3000 ml of boiling water, and then steaming more than 10 minutes with the traditional Chinese medicine steam after stirring evenly; when the water is cooled to 40-42° C., soaking your feet for 30-40 minutes; soaking feet once a day before going to bed; a course for foot soaking is 20 days.
Data manifestation: 60 samples including half male patients and half female patients who are 40-80 years old, wherein type 1 diabetic patient accounts for 50% and type 2 accounts for 50%.
Observation index for efficacy: observing the improvement of blood glucose and “polydipsia, polyuria, polyphagia and weight reduction (three to one less)” of a diabetic patient, and stability and recurrence after blood glucose level back to normal.
Evaluation for therapeutic effect:
Having a foot bath every day before going to bed, then the symptom of “polydipsia, polyuria, polyphagia (sanduo)” is felt to disappear, wherein fasting plasma glucose (FPG)≦7.8 mmol/L; but has not decreased to normal level. This refers to “effective”.
Having a foot bath everyday with the traditional Chinese medicine composition of the present invention and stopping administration after two courses, then the symptom of “polydipsia, polyuria, polyphagia (sanduo)” is felt to be improved and the FPG decreases to normal level. The blood glucose is being normal in six months after administration. This refers to “markedly effective”.
Having a foot bath once every day, then the blood glucose is slightly lower than original after one course and decreases after 3 courses but still higher than normal level, and the blood glucose is unstable, the symptom of “polydipsia, polyuria, polyphagia (sanduo)” has no improvement but even gets worse. This refers to “ineffective”.
Summary: In above 60 samples, 54 are “effective”, accounting for 90%; 40 are “markedly effective”, accounting for 67%; 6 are “ineffective”, accounting for 10%.
Typical cases of clinical experiments are as below:
1. Mrs. Liu, 80 years old, was diagnosed to have diabetes 20 years ago, FPG being 6.3 (mmol/L). At that time, she felt nothing and didn't have medicine; but after several years, she felt weak, backache and thirst. So when she went to the hospital, FPG was about 8.9 (mmol/L). The doctor then suggested her to take medicine incessantly. Then after taking medicine for a few years, the blood glucose had been always unstable. Five years ago, her FPG was still above 7.8 (mmol/L) while taking medicines. Finally, she began insulin injection, which is complicated and has side effects on body. However, after she had foot bath before going to bed every night with the traditional Chinese medicine of the present invention, once for 30-40 mins And at the same time, she was taking insulin injection. After one course, the blood glucose decreased and she felt vitalized; symptom of “polydipsia, polyuria, polyphagia” is felt to disappear. And after three courses of continuing to do that, FPG was 6.0 (mmol/L), the skin became dry, the itching symptom disappeared. Then after she stopped injecting insulin and continued to have foot bath before going to bed every day with the traditional Chinese medicine of the present invention for 6 months, she was re-examined to have 6.2 (mmol/L) FPG, which is normal. She hasn't taken any medicine since then.
2. Mrs. Wang, 48 years old, was examined in 2014 to find that the blood glucose was slight higher and was still high when being re-examined Her FPG was 6.5 (mmol/L), which belongs to type 1 diabetes. The doctor suggests her to take medicine for a long time without stoppage. With consideration to her age and body situation, the patient was subjected to conservative treatment for an attempt. She was introduced to have foot bath before going to bed every day with the traditional Chinese medicine of the present invention for 30-40 mins once a time while taking no medicines. After one course, the blood glucose became normal but unstable with occasional high level. After two courses with continuing to have foot bath before going to bed every day with the traditional Chinese medicine of the present invention, the FPG was about 5.8 (mmol/L) and she felt that symptom of “polydipsia, polyuria, polyphagia” had disappeared while body was becoming normal. So she began to stop taking medicine. Then continuing to do that allows her blood glucose to remain normal until now without relapse and taking medicine.
3. Mr. Zhao, 70 years old, having had diabetes for more than 10 years, having taken medicine for a long time, was a type 2 diabetes patient. His blood glucose level was up to 8.5 (mmol/L). He felt sleepy every day, weak, dizzy drowsiness and had a severe symptom of skin itching. The under the instruction of doctor, he began to insist on medication. When the disease is serious, he would take more, and when the blood glucose decreased, he would take normal dosage. He had foot bath before going to bed every day with the traditional Chinese medicine of the present invention for 30-40 mins once a time while taking medicines as usual. Then after 1 course, the blood glucose decreased a little but was still high. After 3 courses with continuing to have foot bath before going to bed every day with the traditional Chinese medicine of the present invention, the FPG decreased to about 6.5 (mmol/L). And continuing to have foot bath before going to bed everyday with the traditional Chinese medicine of the present invention until now while taking medicine as usual, the blood glucose became normal without taking any more medicines. Also, he became strong, the symptom of sleepiness, weakness and dizzy drowsiness had been improved.
