Diabetes Management

India is the world’s diabetes capital. Indians tend to have a high body fat percent which makes us prone to lifestyle diseases like diabetes. Our diets are primarily carbohydrate based with insufficient intake of good quality proteins. Young children are also being diagnosed with early onset diabetes. Pregnancy related diabetes causes complications as well as future health risks for your child.

Diabetes and pre diabetes can cause long-term complications and increase the risk of a variety of other microvascular illnesses like neuropathy, nephropathy, retinopathy and macrovascular illnesses like heart disease. Prevention and control of diabetes (irrespective of the type) are essential for improving quality of life and lowering overall medical costs.
