Original review summary

The review says there is no scientific evidence that walking in bitter-gourd water treats or cures diabetes; research it discusses concerns consuming bitter gourd, not applying it topically. It explains that diabetes has no cure and that management relies on evidence-based care, including healthy eating, exercise, and medication when needed.[S1]
