Most of us have a habit of brushing things off. A strange ache, a week of fatigue, a bit of weight loss, we tell ourselves it’s nothing.

Life gets busy and it’s easier to move on. But over the years, I’ve seen how often those small signs are our body’s first way of saying, “Pay attention.”

So, let’s go over ten symptoms that deserve more than a passing thought.

Ever feel pressure to fit in or imitate others? True impact comes from embracing your own style, perspective and voice.

Trying to be someone else is exhausting and unsustainable. Every moment spent copying others is energy taken away from developing your own strengths. When you align with your unique perspective and values, your efforts are more natural, impactful and fulfilling.

Stand out by owning what makes you unique, your ideas, your approach, your story. The world doesn’t need another copy; it needs your originality.

I am delighted to share that our Glycemic Index (GI) Wheel has won the prestigious IHH Innovation Award 2025 at the IHH Healthcare Quality Summit in Hong Kong!

In addition, our poster on the Insulin IQ study - “Assessment of Insulin Technique Among Nurses and Interventional Study” was selected under the Clinical Excellence category.

This recognition celebrates our innovative approach in developing the GI Wheel , a practical, patient-centric tool that helps individuals make healthier food choices based on the Glycemic Index. It empowers patients to manage blood sugar levels, prevent spikes, and adopt sustainable dietary habits for better long-term health.

Thanks to this tool, thousands of patients have been supported in improving their eating patterns — leading to better outcomes in diabetes and metabolic care.

This achievement would not have been possible without the unwavering dedication of our dynamic team:
Dr. Aafrin Shabbir , Dr.Hariharan Sukumaran Ms. Jothi Lakshmi, and Dr. Shoba S P, along with support from many more who helped design, refine, and validate the wheel.

A heartfelt thank you to the thousands of patients, dietitians, diabetologists, endocrinologists, and physicians from around the world who contributed their valuable feedback and support. 🙏

This milestone reflects our shared commitment to advancing patient care. Let’s continue to innovate and make a meaningful impact — together.

Walking or gym workouts?

Both bring unique benefits. Walking is low-impact, accessible, and supports cardiovascular health, stress relief and recovery.

Gym workouts offer more intensity, variety, and strength training, which help build muscle and enhance endurance.

The real answer isn’t about choosing one over the other, but about what matches your fitness goals, preferences and routine.

Consistency is what ultimately keeps your heart stronger over time.
