Can diabetes be cured by fasting? - Dr Aman Gautam - Video
Overview
Diabetes is a health condition where blood sugar levels are too high. We should worry about it because it can lead to serious problems like heart disease, kidney issues, and more. Controlling it through a healthy lifestyle, medication, and regular check-ups is crucial for a longer, healthier life.
Contrary to the popular myth that diabetes can be cured by fasting, it's important to clarify that while fasting may help regulate blood sugar levels, it doesn't cure diabetes. Diabetes is a chronic condition that requires ongoing management. Fasting may offer temporary improvements, but a comprehensive approach involving a balanced diet, regular exercise, and medical guidance is essential for long-term control. Depending solely on fasting can lead to nutritional deficiencies and potential complications. It's crucial for individuals with diabetes to consult healthcare professionals for personalized and evidence-based strategies to manage and control their condition effectively.
In this video dispelling Diabetes myths, Dr. Aman Gautam from Holy Angels Hospital, Delhi, discusses Diabetes and the need to be concerned about it while addressing the misconception that diabetes can be cured with the help of fasting.
