In very simple terms, Diabetes is principally a Metabolism Disorder. It is also a result of problems with the pancreatic hormone known as insulin, which causes high levels of blood glucose (blood sugar): Hence the nickname sugar or sugar diabetes. Diabetes is associated with the Solar Plexus chakra.
Crystals for diabetes need to not only deal with the endocrine system but to protect the circulatory system, and to correct chemical imbalances within these systems: They also need to reverse and protect against the side effects that diabetes is known for; kidney damage, vision problems, poor circulation, weight control and heart disease.
The leading crystal for diabetes is Citrine, closely followed by Emerald, Malachite, Red Jasper, Serpentine and Sodalite all of which are supportive for diabetes. Blue Chalcedony, Chrysocolla and Pink Opal are effective for insulin regulation. Bloodstone, Jade and Ruby are also helpful crystals for diabetes.
