Hi Komal Madam I am 58 year old and diabetic for last 15 years fasting level comes out to be 150 aprox. taking medicine morning and evening walk around 6000 - 7000 steps daily please advise me the diet and other precautions Thanks

Ans: To control blood glucose levels, follow a diet containing low fat dairy products, whole grains, fruits and vegetables, beans/legumes, low fats and low salt. Avoid sodas and sweet drinks like aerated drinks, tetra pack fruit juices, white bread, jaggery, sugar, packaged snacks etc. that can quickly raise your blood sugar levels. Fruits like banana , chickoo, mangoes, dates, etc. are high in glycemic index. Avoid starchy vegetables like potatoes , Yam, etc. Include a regular exercise schedule to lower your blood glucose levels.

Sir my son scored 98.3% in JEE mains rank 23k open category. Based on previous year ranking he might get civil metallurgical or production engg in NIT Trichy, integrated physics, mathematics in NIT Warangal, ECE in IIITDM kancheepuram. He is writing BITSAT today. Which one we should opt first Sir.
Ans: Priya Madam, With a JEE Main rank of 23,000 (Open category), your son’s viable options include Civil, Metallurgical, or Production Engineering at NIT Trichy (2024 closing ranks: ~24,691–26,669), Integrated M.Sc. in Physics/Mathematics at NIT Warangal (closing ranks up to 22,490–23,183), and ECE at IIITDM Kancheepuram (2024 closing rank: 27,634). While NIT Trichy offers established core engineering programs, these branches may have limited industry demand compared to electronics. NIT Warangal’s integrated sciences provide interdisciplinary flexibility but may require postgraduate specialization for engineering careers. IIITDM Kancheepuram’s ECE program aligns better with emerging tech domains like VLSI and communication systems. If BITSAT yields admission to higher-ranked BITS campuses (e.g., Pilani/Goa) in preferred branches like ECE or CS, it would surpass these options due to brand value and curriculum. However, if BITSAT results are uncertain, prioritize IIITDM Kancheepuram’s ECE for its focused tech curriculum and better alignment with current industry trends over NIT Trichy’s core branches or NIT Warangal’s science programs. All the BEST for your Son's Admission & a Prosperous Future!
