About Us-"Sugar" as it is commonly known or diabetes has already affected an estimated over 62 million Indians, or 12% of the Urban Indian population, although over 50% sufferers are not aware that they have it. It is a general term for a number of disorders that prevent the body from regulating its blood sugar level, which can lead to serious complications.Blood sugar /Glucose level is determined by the amount of glucose in the blood. Glucose is produced when we digest starchy foods such as bread, rice and potatoes, and sweet foods including sugar and chocolate

However, with early diagnosis of diabetes symptoms, the advanced treatments now available, and careful monitoring of diet and exercise, it is possible to delay the progression of diabetes, allowing sufferers to live long and healthy lives. Definitions of Diabetes/Pre-Diabetes: Diagnosis of diabetes is warranted for any of three positive tests, with a second positive test on a different day:

. A fasting plasma glucose of greater than or equal to 126 mg/dl.

. A casual plasma glucose (taken any time of day) of greater than or equal to 200 mg/dl with the symptoms of diabetes.
