Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Change in Glycemic Control as assessed by fasting blood sugar (FBS), postprandial blood sugar (PPBS), and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) from baseline to Week 12. Change in Daily Insulin Requirement measured as total daily insulin dose (units/day or units/kg/day) from baseline to Week 12. Change in Quality of Life assessed using the Diabetes Quality of Life (DQOL) questionnaire from baseline to Week 12.Timepoint: Eligible participants will be screened and enrolled after obtaining written informed consent. Randomization/allocation will be performed at baseline (Week 0). The Integrative Ayurveda Naturopathy Yoga intervention and standard care (including insulin therapy, dietary advice, and physical activity recommendations) will be initiated at baseline and continued throughout the study period up to Week 12. Demographic characteristics will be recorded at baseline only. Anthropometric parameters (weight, body mass index, and waist circumference), fasting blood sugar (FBS), postprandial blood sugar (PPBS), and 24-hour dietary recall assessments will be conducted at baseline, during the residential intervention phase (Weeks 1 3 or at discharge), and at follow-up visits scheduled at Weeks 6, 9, and 12. Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) will be assessed at baseline and at the end of the intervention period (Week 12). Adverse events and safety parameters will be monitored continuously from baseline through the residential phase and all follow-up visits until study completion at Week 12.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Change in Anthropometric Parameters including body weight, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, and waist hip ratio from baseline to Week 12. Change in Physical Activity Levels assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form (IPAQ SF) from baseline to Week 12. Change in Dietary Patterns and Lifestyle Practices assessed through 24 hour dietary recall and adherence to prescribed lifestyle recommendations during the study period. Change in Psychological Well Being and Perceived Stress Levels from baseline to Week 12. Improvement in Metabolic Health and Physiological Balance as reflected by trends in glycemic parameters, anthropometric measures, and exploratory metabolic indicators assessed during the study. Safety and Tolerability of the Integrative Intervention assessed through monitoring and recording of adverse events throughout the study period.Timepoint: Eligible participants will be screened and enrolled after obtaining written informed consent. Randomization/allocation will be performed at baseline (Week 0). The Integrative Ayurveda Naturopathy Yoga intervention and standard care (including insulin therapy, dietary advice, and physical activity recommendations) will be initiated at baseline and continued throughout the study period up to Week 12.
