He also answered the questions asked by the children.
He said that it is necessary to change our lifestyle to avoid diabetes. He added that it is unfortunate that we go towards showing off without taking nutritious food. Because of this, we are moving towards diabetes.
He advised that if we take full sleep as well as eat on time and exercise regularly, we can avoid diabetes by increasing metabolism in our body. Dr Dhandhania told the children not to take studies as a form of stress. It is said that stress and not doing physical work also causes diabetes.
