dc.description.abstractA 57 years old male patient was admitted to an inpatient Naturopathy and Yoga (N&Y) hospital, diagnosed with pemphigus vulgaris (PV) for one year and co-morbid type 2 diabetes (T2DM) for 10 years,associated with poor quality of life (QoL). He was administered N&Y therapies for 10 days, along withconventional medicines. There was improved QoL and reduced dosage of insulin, along with reduction inbody weight. These changes were sustained and improved further during the 60-day follow-up period.Although there was no improvement in the skin lesions, the improvement in QoL indicate a possible roleof N&Y in management of PV and T2DM. This case report also warrants further studies for N&Y in themanagement of dermatological conditions as well as metabolic syndrome.© 2020 The Authors.
