VAMANA
AND
DIABETES
. Dr Shriniwas Kashalikar
; The fact that the neurons in gastrointestinal tract are more in number
, than the neurons in the spinal cord suggested ( to me that VAMANA which means induced
) vomiting can stimulate the gastrointestinal tract from within and stimulate hormones
secretion from gastrointestinal tract and also .from pancreas
I thought this reflex stimulation could be . useful in the treatment of diabetes mellitus I
. tried it on myself Apart from immediate , , relief from acidity giddiness throbbing
, , , headache sinusitis expectoration uneasiness ; from gastric discomfort I found it useful
( though I can not prove it scientifically as I ) have not excluded other factors in diabetes
.mellitus
. . For VAMANA I e induction of vomiting I simply
. a drink about a liter of water either on empty stomach or after food and
. b bend over the commode and stimulate my . palate with fingers
. This induces vomiting Excepting initial hesitation and apprehension I found this .procedure very safe and effective
, This is my experience only and neither a . ,scientific study NOR advice However
, ,it may stimulate the study research clinical , trials judicious and careful
practice with respect to benefits of VAMANA , in diabetes and other conditions apart from
, , stuffy nose acidity giddiness and uneasiness associated with gastritis and gastric .discomfort
