Experts Highlight Rising Lifestyle Diseases Among Lean Young Indians Despite Healthy AppearanceNext

Many young Indians who appear lean or healthy are increasingly diagnosed with lifestyle diseases like diabetes, fatty liver, and heart conditions. Experts attribute this to factors such as sedentary habits, poor nutrition, chronic stress, and metabolic dysfunction, which may not be reflected by BMI or outward appearance. Additionally, rising interest in fasting insulin as a health marker highlights complexities in assessing metabolic risk beyond traditional tests. These trends underscore the need for broader health awareness beyond visible fitness.
