According to Dr Ajay Kumar Lal Das, Consultant – Internal Medicine& Diabetology, “India is projected to become the diabetes capital of the world. Diabetes is a disease that is associated with co morbidity. Due to the duality of symptoms it is a silent killer and can adversely affect a number of organs of the body. Studies highlight that diabetes affects the kidneys, heart and may also cause joint pain. It is important that diabetes be diagnosed at the right time and comprehensive clinical plans be followed to treat and manage the same.”

There are two types of diabetes – type 1 – juvenile diabetes and type 2 – lifestyle associated diabetes. In India Type 2 – Diabetes Milletus is most common. The signs and symptoms that highlight that you are suffering from Diabetes are – Hunger and fatigue, weight loss, excessive urination and thirst, dry mouth and itchy skin along with blurred vision. If you are experiencing any two of the above mentioned, it is best that you consult a diabetes clinic.”
