The deadly cocktail of diabetes & hypertension is consuming the world. Indians being genetically predisposed are among the worst affected. As per 2013 data [IDF], 65.1 million Indians are diabetic and nearly 78 million are pre-diabetic. With the present healthcare system, it is quite possible that there are many more who are undetected. India is predicted to achieve the status of Global Diabetes Capital in near future. Are we worried about this? Do we really care? Effective treatment doesn’t mean only medicinal treatment. Let us see what strategies we can apply to control this TSUNAMI of diabetes & hypertension. |
