Dear Mushtaq,

Gokhru is considered helpful in diabetes and ED ( erectile dysfunction ). You may try Land Caltrops ( Gokhru ).Gokhru can be used in powder form. Take half a tea spoon of it with warm Milk.
Lifestyle is an important factor in this case as well. You need to include exercise in your daily routine. A walk will also do if exercise is not possible because of your health. You should have a proper and complete sleep. Quit Smoking if you do.

Please consult with your doctor before using any herbal remedies.

Dear Sagar, The loss in weight can be because of Diabetes. The most effective herb for Diabetes is Gurmar- take Homeopathic tincture- Gymnema Sylvestre- mother tincture. Take 2-3 drops in a glass of water once in a day. Keep a check on your readings. It is known to lower the sugar level. - Exercise/walk daily.
Always consult a doctor if you are already taking any medication. Write back for further queries.
Read more on Diabetes under section Disease for more information on what you can have in the routine diet to maintain your sugar levels.
