Dear Komal,
I am very worried about my mother.
She is 50, diabetic and forgets to take her medicines.
She does not exercise and follows a normal diet, no restrictions.
I am very worried about her.
How do I get her to follow a healthy routine so that she leads a long healthy life?

Diabetes is a metabolic condition which needs to be effectively controlled through a disciplined combination of regular medication, a good fitness regimen and healthy dietary patterns.
Ensure that your mother is following the above.
Encourage her to go for short walks, keep a watch on her medication schedule and follow a low carbohydrate, low fat and high protein diet to ensure her wellbeing.
Her diet should contain good antioxidants from fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, etc, with a focus on complex carbohydrates.
