Overview
Diabetes (particularly Type 2) is closely linked to diet, lifestyle and metabolic health. While homeopathy does not replace insulin or diabetes medications, it can provide valuable supportive care — addressing the constitutional factors, reducing complications risk and supporting overall metabolic health. Type 1 diabetes requires conventional insulin treatment; homeopathy is complementary.

The homeopathic approach
Homeopathic treatment supports metabolic health by addressing constitutional tendencies, stress, digestive function and immune balance. Dr Siddiq will also provide detailed nutritional guidance as part of a comprehensive approach to diabetes management.
What to expect
Homeopathy is used alongside — not instead of — conventional diabetes treatment. Continue all prescribed medications. Nutritional and lifestyle advice is an important part of the consultation alongside homeopathic prescribing.
