- Diabetes or high blood sugar today has become as common issue in every family life.
- Without even realizing we can manage diabetes, if we accept it easily.
- There is a phase between our normal blood sugar and prediabetes. So, during prediabetes if we start medications along with diet management and increase level of activity, we can really delay any complications for 30 to 40 years.
- Whenever we think of diabetes, kidney failure and insulin are two factors.
- Kidney failure is not the only thing. We can become blind or have heart attack.
- We can lose sensations in our feet leading to amputation of our legs.
- Everybody knows diabetes because it is so common, every drug company is making medicines and now there are 13 groups of excellent medications available and together they can really keep us very healthy.
- Last but not the least, we really have to connect with our doctor and a dietitian and seek counseling.
You will feel good, healthy & have no symptoms for long and will be very tempting not to take any medications but it is going to cost money too, especially in India.
- If you want to ignore the reality, it is not going to go away.

- Why it is very important to read this book? Answer is, it is very important to read this book because Heart health is very important to us.
- Heart attack or sudden death from the heart attack has become so rampant in India.
- It is affecting more and more youngish male population.
- Women have some protection from the heart attack until they are in their reproductive age, but they still have some amount of risk.
- Our recommendation is to start screening all the males at age 30. This will give us a baseline.
- And continue every five years with three most important, simple, noninvasive, not at all costly, Tests.
- If all these three tests are normal, then I can give you in writing that you will not have heart attack for the next five years. Statistically, it is not possible.
- Why these three tests are important?
- These tests are important because all these three different tests give us complementary information.
- As far as ECG/EKG is concerned, it gives us all the information about the electrical conductivity of the heart and our ECG is like our fingerprint.
- I can guarantee that if you take your ECG every year and put one above the other, they will be exactly the same. ECG helps us to understand the function of the two electrical nodes in our heart, which control the rhythm and the rate of the rhythmic contraction and relaxation of the heart.
- We all know that, in a heart attack, we immediately do ECG and if you are having a heart attack, you can see changes in the ECG, we can pretty much figure it out.
- But why to wait for that point when we are really having heart attack, because we may not have more than 5 to 10 minutes to recover from the heart attack and if our brain does not get blood and oxygen for several minutes, our brain is never going to come back, even though if our heart comes back, and we may not be alive anymore.
- Since we will never have 5 minutes, so our hope is that by doing three simple tests, we can really, statistically, almost 100% anticipate what is going to happen over next five years and if we see any negative information, we can always fix it in time, seeking the help from the best heart doctors, but we need information and time.

- Should we obsess with our heart health?
- My answer is, “Why not?” Heart attack is the only medical situation where we can lose our life in 5 minutes. There are no other medical situations like that.
- Whether we have a stroke, or our lung fail, our kidney fail, our system which helps to digest our food fails, and liver fail, but we do not die in 5 minutes. It may take months and years.
- In case of heart, if our heart is not healthy and we are having a heart attack then n such a situation, heart cannot effectively pump blood and oxygen to the brain.
- If our brain does not get enough oxygen, then our brain is gone. We cannot get it back.
- Medically speaking, your heart may recover, but if our brain is gone, we are gone. There is no way we can bring you back.
- HEART, especially in India, has become the major reason for sudden death especially in youngish population. Every family in India knows about their friends and family members who were doing well and then they were suddenly gone. There are so many stories like that.
- It does not have to happen that way. Suddenly dying at young age leaving behind your young wife and children or youngish family when you could easily live is so devastating.
- If we knew something is not right with your heart with medical knowledge and technology, we can really make you live for another 30 years, so you have to do three simple noninvasive relatively low cost test every five years which are very safe and if these tests are normal, which tells you almost 100% information about the heart, we can give it to you in writing that you cannot have heart attack in next five years.
- At present, we have the medical knowledge, medical technology expertise today and wonderful medicines as well.
