Sir,
India faces an epidemic in diabetes. Prevention of the disease and dealing with it calls for important measures, as recommended in your write-up “Alternative treatments to cure diabetes. “If the rising incidence of diabetes goes unchecked, its long-term implications will undermine our progress. It needs to be tackled by a multi-pronged strategy that includes awareness campaigns. This is because of the change in lifestyle and, most importantly, lack of physical activity. If left unattanded, diabetes will assume formidable proportions. The only possible reason for the increase in the number of persons with diabetes in India could be the change in food and lifestyle habits, where the younger generation is addicted to the fast-food culture with its minimal fibre content. In addition to this is the lack of physical exercise. It is crucial that lessons on diabetes control are incorporated in the academic curriculum. There must be a free and compulsory medical check-up for students.
