ISLAMABAD: Medical experts have warned that unhealthy eating habits, lack of physical activity<\/a>, and poor lifestyle choices are among the major reasons behind the rapid increase in blood sugar levels, which can eventually lead to diabetes.<\/p>\n

According to health specialists, the number of diabetes patients is increasing rapidly across the world due to excessive consumption of fast food, sugary drinks, and a lack of exercise. They said obesity, stress, insufficient sleep, and family history also significantly raise the risk of developing the disease.<\/p>\n

An unbalanced diet a major factor<\/h3>\n

Experts say frequent consumption of sugar, soft drinks, bakery products, and junk food causes a rapid rise in blood glucose levels, making it difficult for the body to use insulin effectively.<\/p>\n

Lack of exercise increases risk<\/h3>\n

Medical professionals stated that avoiding daily physical activity can lead to insulin resistance, which is considered one of the main causes of high blood sugar levels.<\/p>\n

Stress and poor sleep also harmful<\/h3>\n

According to experts, mental stress and lack of proper sleep negatively affect hormones, resulting in imbalanced blood sugar levels.<\/p>\n

Health experts have advised people to adopt healthy habits to prevent diabetes, including consuming a balanced diet rich in vegetables, pulses, and fiber.<\/p>\n

They also warned that excessive intake of sugar, sugary products, and fast food contributes significantly to rising sugar levels.<\/p>\n

Experts recommend at least 30 minutes of daily walking or exercise to keep blood sugar under control, while maintaining a healthy weight and reducing belly fat can further lower the risk.<\/p>\n

They added that getting six to eight hours of peaceful sleep is essential, as sleep deprivation may also increase blood sugar levels.<\/p>\n

Medical experts further stressed the importance of reducing mental stress by participating in positive and healthy activities.<\/p>\n

According to experts, diabetes is becoming a silent but dangerous global health issue, and timely lifestyle changes along with healthy habits can play a key role in preventing the disease.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
