5 homemade drinks that may help manage blood sugar naturally
Not everything that helps your health has to come from a pill bottle. Sometimes, the things we drink at home every day can quietly support the body in powerful ways. If you're someone looking to manage blood sugar levels through natural habits, certain traditional drinks might offer subtle but helpful benefits. These drinks aren't magic fixes, and they aren't meant to replace medicine, but they may give your body a small nudge in the right direction. Here are five simple drinks that many people turn to, passed down through families, whispered between friends, and backed by old wisdom with a touch of modern insight. Fenugreek seed water Soaking fenugreek seeds overnight in water and drinking the strained liquid in the morning is a practice many people swear by. The idea is that fenugreek helps slow sugar absorption and might improve the way your body uses insulin. How to prepare it: Soak about a teaspoon of fenugreek seeds in a glass of water overnight. Drink the water on an empty stomach when you wake up. You don't need to chew the seeds the water itself holds the benefits. Warm cinnamon water Cinnamon is more than just a sweet spice. It has been used traditionally to support digestion, and some believe it may help in keeping sugar levels steady. It's thought to gently help the body respond to insulin more effectively, especially when used regularly in small amounts. How to prepare it: Add half a teaspoon of cinnamon powder (or a small stick) to a cup of boiling water. Let it simmer for a few minutes. Sip it once cooled slightly, either in the morning or after a meal. Bitter gourd juice Not everyone loves the sharp taste of bitter gourd, but its bitter quality is what gives it potential value. It contains natural compounds that act somewhat like insulin, helping cells absorb glucose better. It's a traditional go-to in many Indian households for blood sugar support. How to prepare it: Wash and peel one medium karela. Remove the seeds and blend the rest with a little water. Strain it. Add lemon juice or cucumber to soften the flavor, and drink a small glass before breakfast. Start with once or twice a week. Indian gooseberry water Indian gooseberry, is packed with vitamin C and has been a staple in Ayurvedic remedies. Some believe it helps support pancreatic function and slows down sugar spikes after meals. It's also refreshing and good for your skin and digestion. How to prepare it: Grate or crush fresh amla, or use a tablespoon of unsweetened amla juice. Mix with a glass of water, and drink in the morning or midday. A pinch of black salt can make it tastier. Aloe vera and Tulsi drink Aloe vera is usually linked to skincare, but when taken internally in small amounts, it may help soothe the gut and support better sugar metabolism. Tulsi (holy basil) adds its own benefits, from stress relief to helping balance blood glucose. How to prepare it: Scoop out one tablespoon of aloe vera gel (from the fresh leaf, not the flavored kind). Add 3–4 fresh tulsi leaves. Mix in warm water and let it sit for a few minutes. Drink slowly on an empty stomach. These drinks are simple. No fancy ingredients, no fuss. They're quiet little helpers, not cures, not miracles, but part of a more mindful approach to your health. Before adding anything regularly to your routine, especially if you're on medication or have a condition like diabetes, it's always wise to speak with a doctor or nutritionist. Sometimes, healing begins not in big changes, but in small, steady sips. This article is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. The drinks and ingredients mentioned are based on traditional practices and emerging insights but are not intended to treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Individuals, especially those with diabetes or on medication, should consult a qualified healthcare provider before incorporating any new remedies into their routine. Always follow your doctor's guidance when managing blood sugar or other health conditions.

Centre moots ‘AVAS' sound alerts for e-vehicles when they move below 20kmph
The Central Government is planning to introduce a new regulation on electric vehicles that will require the manufacturers to install a device- called Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS)- to generate sound if the vehicle is moving at the speed above zero to 20 kmph. The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) has taken this step since most of the electric vehicles, including e-rickshaws, barely emit any sound at less than 20 kmph speed, increasing the chances of accidents if road users, especially pedestrians, are not alerted with some sound. AVAS is being mooted in the wake of the surge in the electric two- and three-wheelers and E-rickshaws have increased significantly over the years as their penetration even in the colonies of the city have gone high and they have become one of the most favoured vehicles for commuters for last mile connectivity. The ministry has published a draft guideline on automotive industry standards requiring fitting AVAS in electric vehicles for their reduced audibility. Sources said that the matter was discussed in the Central Motor Vehicles Rules – Technical Standing Committee (CMVR-TSC), which is the apex body for setting motor vehicle safety standards, and the final regulation will be issued soon. 'When an electric vehicle moves above 20 kmph speed, it generates some sound through its tyres. However, this is not the case when it is below 20 kmph. Given the government push, the number of electric and hybrid vehicles are increasing every year and especially E-rickshaws have grown in huge numbers even in much smaller cities. Considering the situation, there is a need to bring this regulation, so that any incident due to the sound can be avoided. Due to the quiet mode of these vehicles, Pedestrians, cyclists are not aware that a vehicle is coming from behind them, which leads to accidents,' said an officer. The officials said that the AVAS is mandated in electric and hybrid vehicles in countries like the United States, Japan. The Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi is also conducting a study on the need of AVAS in electric vehicles. 'The Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM), an apex body of vehicle manufacturers, approached for this study. It is still ongoing and we have not arrived at the conclusion yet. We are looking into the different aspects of the electric vehicle to find out if AVAS is needed in the electric vehicle or not,' said Dr Anoop Chawla, professor of Mechanical Engineering, IIT-Delhi. Dheeraj Mishra is a Principal correspondent with The Indian Express, Business Bureau. He covers India's two key ministries- Ministry of Railways and Ministry of Road Transport & Highways. He frequently uses the Right to Information (RTI) Act for his stories, which have resulted in many impactful reports. ... Read More

Government to introduce rule for silent EVs
In a move to alert pedestrians about approaching electric two and three wheelers , and e-rickshaws, which hardly emit any noise, govt will soon introduce a new regulation requiring manufacturers to have an electronic system that automatically creates sound when these vehicles are moving at speeds of up to 20 kmph. The transport ministry has published a draft automobile industry standard (AIS) for Quiet Road Transport Vehicles (QRTV) requiring fitment of Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS). This safety feature primarily is designed for electric and hybrid vehicles emitting artificial sounds to alert pedestrians, cyclists, and other road users about the presence of the vehicle, especially at low speeds where these vehicles are very EVs run at higher speed, their tyres generate noise. Sources said the need for such an alert was felt soon after the introduction of EVs in the country, especially after reports of road accidents involving these vehicles as pedestrians could not spot them early. The AVAS is mandated in electric and hybrid vehicles across several countries, including the European Union, United States, and Japan. While the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration of the US has made this system mandatory for all new EVs sold since Sept 2020, Europe implemented this regulation in July 2019.
