The ambitious goal of Diabetes India, an international network of physicians, is to eradicate diabetes from India by 2030 by concerted efforts and widespread awareness campaigns.

“Doctors discussed promoting multidisciplinary approaches to diabetes management, ensuring we stay at the forefront of advancements in the field. After the congress concluded, we have prepared a white paper on primordial prevention of diabetes, which will be submitted to the President. We will also urge the government to formulate policies and awareness campaigns on diabetes,” said Dr Abhay Sahoo, organising secretary.

Side effects of diabetes

The meeting brought to light diabetes’s frequently disregarded side effects on the skin, bones, and dental health. A number of subject matter experts emphasized the significance of routine screening for various organ systems, akin to the evaluation of kidney and heart health in individuals with diabetes. Furthermore, the congress’s symposiums and panel discussions attempted to debunk misconceptions about diabetes, particularly as it relates to insulin therapy.

“Early diagnosis and weight loss can help in remission of diabetes. Everyone above 30 years of age must check their sugar levels once in a year. Don’t take diabetes lightly. Prediabetes is a growing global health issue. With healthy lifestyle, diet and exercise, we can prevent diabetes successfully. It’s not easy but we have to decide our priorities,” said Dr B M Makkar, owner of a diabetes and obesity centre in New Delhi.

“Preventing diabetes is a multifaceted challenge that requires a holistic approach. It’s not just about exercise; it’s about fostering a culture of well-being,” said Dr Manoj Chawla, co-scientific chairman, DiabetesIndia.

Experts discussed the scope of the problem and suggested possible remedies during a conference on kidney health in diabetes, with a focus on early detection and treatment approaches. About 2,500 physicians as well as thirty faculty members from abroad and about 300 native faculty members attended the four-day conference.
