Your questions, answered
Who is this guide for?
Adults who don't have diabetes but want to lower their risk: borderline reports, a family history, belly fat, a desk job, PCOS, or diabetes during a past pregnancy. If you already have diabetes, the Diabetes Management Guide is the right one.
I feel fine. Do I still need this?
Early changes in blood sugar usually have no symptoms. The guide helps you check your risk, understand your reports and build habits early, when they help the most.
Will I have to give up rice, roti or sweets?
No. The guide is built on everyday Indian food. It shows the right grains, portions and plate, plus smart ways to enjoy festivals and sweets.
Do I need a gym or special equipment?
No. The 12-week strength plan uses a chair, a wall and water bottles at home. Walking plans start from 3,000 steps a day.
Does it replace my doctor?
No. It is an education guide that works alongside your doctor. It also tells you which tests to ask for and when to retest.
How will I get the guide?
It's a PDF. After payment you get a download link by email. Read it on your phone, tablet or laptop, and print the trackers if you like.
Is there a printed copy?
