Overview
Individuals with diabetes must maintain their HbA1c below 7% as it signifies well-controlled blood sugar levels over time, reducing the risk of complications like heart disease and nerve damage. However, while yoga offers potential health benefits and can complement diabetes management, it's not a standalone cure for diabetes. Diabetes is a multifaceted condition influenced by various factors beyond exercise alone.
While yoga may positively impact insulin sensitivity and overall well-being, effective diabetes management necessitates a comprehensive approach involving medication, diet, exercise, and regular medical supervision. Managing blood sugar levels is pivotal, and while yoga can aid in stress reduction and improved fitness, it's essential to understand that it isn't a sole solution for diabetes.
In this video, busting some common myths related to diabetes Dr Uday Phadke, Endocrinologist and Diabetologist from Mumbai, explain the significance of maintaining HbA1c levels below 7% for individuals with diabetes. Dr Phadke addresses the myth surrounding yoga as a standalone cure for diabetes while emphasizing the importance of HbA1c targets in diabetes management.
