Keeping blood sugar under control is a good thing in itself.
It is important to keep some control over blood sugar levels.
However, the use of ashwagandha in combination with diabetes medications is not a good idea.hazardousIt is.

Hypoglycemia = a disease in which blood glucose levels are lower than normal.
In severe cases, there is a risk of impaired consciousness or coma.

If symptoms of hypoglycemia should appear, the first thing to do is to rest and drink sugar water or sugar-sweetened soft drinks.
With proper treatment, it will heal in less than 30 minutes. Deal with it calmly.
People with autoimmune diseases: worsening of symptoms
People with autoimmune diseases should also refrain from taking ashwagandha.
Ashwagandha strengthens the immune system and is not inherently problematic.
However, in the case of immunocompromised patients, it will strengthen the "abnormal immune system".
Why people with autoimmune diseases should not take ashwagandha
- Autoimmune disease is a condition in which the human body's immune system is directed against its own cells as well as foreign substances
- Ashwagandha strengthens the immune system
- Immunity runaway to oneself is reinforced.
To begin with, the "immune system" attacks "foreign substances (such as viruses)" that enter the body and eliminate them from within oneself.
Autoimmune disease is a condition in which the immune system is not functioning properly and attacking not only foreign substances but also oneself (reference(See Section 2.1.2.).
Self = one's own cells.

In other words, when you strengthen your immunity with ashwagandha, not only the attack on "foreign substances" (immunity) but also the attack on "your own cells" is strengthened, and your own body is torn to pieces.
If your doctor diagnoses you with an autoimmune disease, do not take ashwagandha.
