Insulin resistance is one cause of abnormally high blood sugar levels. A kapha pacifying diet and reducing sweets / high glycemic foods in your diet will help. Exercises, and even breathing exercises (pranayama) can improve insulin uptake by cells. Even a hot bath can help. Bitter herbs should be taken at least twice a day which will help reduce kapha. Herbs like punarnava which energize the body at the cellular level are used in Ayurveda also. Excess sugar in the blood is a condition of ama. Cleansing can help reduce all forms of ama, including high blood sugar levels.

Disclaimer: 'High Blood Sugar' could be serious and should be checked by a medical doctor.

ADDRESS ISSUES IN STAGE OF DISEASE 2

HIGH BLOOD SUGAR IS IN STAGE OF DISEASE 2 - AFFECTING BLOOD & EMOTIONS

Affecting Blood: Initially, imbalances are localized, often in the digestive tract. As an imbalance grows, it starts to affect your body systemically, via the blood. If you have symptoms in this category it means that your imbalances are starting to spread, have entered the bloodstream, and are now systemic. Pay particular attention to the biocharacteristics, tastes, and doshas out of balance systemically, so you know how to strengthen your body as a whole, and reduce physical stress on your organs. At this stage of imbalance you will begin to experience generalized discomfort, imbalanced emotions, and may develop sensitivities to temperature. It may take several weeks of strict adherence to a specific remedial diet to clear blood level imbalances. Blood cleansing herbs may reduce symptoms. A several day cleanse may shorten the recovery time.
