Number 4 - Diabetes

There are nearly 80 million diabetes patients in India alone. Diabetes has become an epidemic largely related to sedentary lifestyle coupled with high intake of calories and rising work stress. By definition, diabetes is the inability of the body to manage normal blood sugar levels but it is not just that because of the associated complications such as damage to vision, kidney failure, amputation of limb and heart attacks.

Number 5 - Back Pain

Lower back pain is a universal complaint and is observed to be most common among middle aged people. This is because as people approach mid-30s their muscle elasticity, bone density and muscle tone begin to decline.
