The negative effects of health
The doctor gave some explanation about the harmful effects that high cholesterol, diabetes and obesity can have on the body. He revealed that there is a global pandemic of abdominal obesity, where insulin builds up in the abdominal area. He revealed more about it, saying, ‘This fat is a storehouse for insulin; the other parts of the body don’t get insulin’, calling this the ‘onset of risk’. Dr. Bhagwat stated that many people in India are unaware that they have diabetes or that their cholesterol levels are higher than normal. He also stated that while diagnoses have improved, there is still a long way to go, not only in terms of diagnostics, but also in terms of consciousness.
Rajiv was also asked to shed light on youth use of over-the-counter protein powders and whether this is one of the contributing factors to heart attacks. He replied, “Those taking these supplements should seek medical advice before doing so.” The doctor further advised that they should consult the health professional who will determine if they should take such supplements. He also stated that if one of a person’s parents has diabetes, they are at a higher risk of developing diabetes themselves. The doctor explained that one of the other two primary factors contributing to the surge in diabetes cases is a lack of sleep and vitamin D.
Lack of vitamin D
The doctor also revealed that a lack of vitamin D is “a big trigger for falling prey to diabetes.” “You have to get vitamin D through sunlight; that’s the most natural way to do it.” He advised against the use of excessive amounts of “calcium and vitamin D supplements” unless supervised by a doctor. Rajiv also claimed that diabetes cannot be reversed by taking vitamin D supplements.
