Abstract

Diabetes is a chronic disorder and not a disease of opulent in India. It is estimated that prevalence of diabetes in India will be two-fold globally from 2000 to 2030. The associated risk factors are obesity, hypertension, age, change of lifestyle and so many. The obesity is main risk factor for the diabetes due to the intake of junk food or eating food with high glycemic index and no physical activity which contribute to the fat deposition in the body leading to accumulation of fat in the blood-stream thus, increasing the blood glucose level in the body. Maintaining the diabetic registries in India will give an idea about the distribution of disease and number of patients affected every year in every part of India. National undertaking programs are urgently needed for the early knowledge, detection and diagnosis, diseases management and primary prevention of diabetes. This review aims to highlight the emerging trends in the prevalence of diabetes and their associated risk factors in India..
