“Diabetes at 30? 5 Prevention Tips for Young Indians”
India, known as the ‘Diabetes Capital of the World,’ is seeing a rise in diabetes cases among young adults, even teens. The trend of diabetes affecting those under 30 is alarming. Dr. Advait Sharma, Chief Medical Officer at Truworth Wellness, explains that lifestyle, stress, and genetics play a major role in this shift. Stress from work, deadlines, and job insecurity can lead to unhealthy habits like smoking, drinking, and overeating, which increase the risk of diabetes.
Here are 5 simple tips to stay diabetes-free:
- Eat a balanced diet: Include fruits, veggies, lean proteins, and whole grains. Avoid processed foods and sugary drinks.
- Stay active: Exercise helps control blood sugar. Simple activities like walking or stretching can make a difference.
- Manage stress: Try healthy stress-relief techniques like yoga, deep breathing, or mindfulness instead of unhealthy habits like drinking or smoking.
- Get enough sleep: A consistent sleep routine can help regulate blood sugar levels and prevent insulin resistance.
- Get regular health checks: Annual health checks, including blood sugar tests, can help detect early signs of diabetes.
