The World Diabetes Federation has rightly come out with the theme ‘Family and diabetes’ on the occasion of World Diabetes Day, which falls on 14 November every year.
Diabetes is a non-communicable disease which takes away the energy, enthusiasm and liveliness of a person. It constantly haunts the sufferer, laying restrictions on his movement, lifestyle and diet. Diabetes also affects almost all the organs of the human body such as the skin, eyes, heart, limbs, kidneys, etc.
But there is hope and plenty of it. Diabetes can be prevented, managed, cured and reversed through today’s knowledge and science. It just requires a little bit of effort and time from the individual and his family.
The family can help tremendously by ensuring that the food at home is healthy, containing a good mix of fruits and vegetables and is almost entirely free of high-calorie beverages and sweeteners.
At least 30 minutes of brisk walking together will be a great workout for everyone. Less time in front of the television and more time outdoors, following up on hobbies and other interesting pastimes can cut down on stress and add peace and harmony to the lives of the entire family. Regular medical checkups and timely visits to the family physician can also help prevent many complications well in advance.
Mega Lifesciences said it was also extremely pleased to support the fight against diabetes by introducing Ginsomin, which contains Korean panax ginseng fortified with vitamins and minerals.
Ginseng is called the king of herbs and about six million Americans are supposed to consume it regularly for health and wellness.
Ginsomin can help as a supplement to prevent and treat diabetes. It has also been proven to improve insulin secretion as well as the uptake of glucose into the cells of our body. Thus, Ginsomin improves energy levels and normalises sugar levels.
Ginsomin also effectively relieves stress and improves our ability to fight infections when taken once daily, preferably after breakfast. Ginsomin is available at all leading pharmacies and supermarket outlets island-wide.
