Awareness and healthy habits key to controlling 'Diabetes', says Expert

ISLAMABAD, APR 5: A medical expert Sunday stressed public awareness for controlling diabetes through lifestyle changes and highlighted Gluco Wipe, a natural herbal supplement that supports balanced sugar levels and overall well-being.

Dr. Raja Adil Sarfaraz while speaking to a local news channel emphasized that lifestyle changes are the cornerstone of managing and even reversing diabetes, adding, a balanced diet, rich in vegetables, whole grains and lean proteins, helps stabilize blood sugar levels.

Avoiding processed foods, sugary drinks and excessive refined carbohydrates can prevent spikes in glucose and support overall health.

He also highlighted the importance of portion control and regular meal timing to maintain steady energy levels throughout the day.

Physical activity plays a critical role in diabetes management. Dr. Sarfaraz recommends at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise daily, including walking, yoga, or light strength training. Regular movement not only helps control blood sugar but also improves metabolism, cardiovascular health and mental well-being. Even short bouts of activity after meals can significantly reduce glucose spikes.

Stress management and adequate sleep are often overlooked but are vital for controlling diabetes. High stress levels and poor sleep can increase insulin resistance and raise blood sugar. 

Dr. Sarfaraz suggested incorporating relaxation techniques such as meditation, deep breathing exercises, or spending time in nature. Ensuring 7–8 hours of quality sleep each night helps the body regulate hormones that affect glucose metabolism.

In addition to lifestyle measures, Dr. Sarfaraz highlighted the role of natural supplements like Gluco Wipe, which supports blood sugar control, boosts metabolism and enhances overall well-being. He also advised regular monitoring of sugar levels, staying hydrated and consulting healthcare professionals before making major changes.

Combining diet, exercise, stress management and natural supplements can help people manage diabetes effectively and reduce dependence on medication over time.

  Healthy routines, mindful eating, and herbal support can naturally stabilize glucose and boost overall vitality.
