I am delighted to share that our Glycemic Index (GI) Wheel has won the prestigious IHH Innovation Award 2025 at the IHH Healthcare Quality Summit in Hong Kong!

In addition, our poster on the Insulin IQ study - “Assessment of Insulin Technique Among Nurses and Interventional Study” was selected under the Clinical Excellence category.

This recognition celebrates our innovative approach in developing the GI Wheel , a practical, patient-centric tool that helps individuals make healthier food choices based on the Glycemic Index. It empowers patients to manage blood sugar levels, prevent spikes, and adopt sustainable dietary habits for better long-term health.

Thanks to this tool, thousands of patients have been supported in improving their eating patterns — leading to better outcomes in diabetes and metabolic care.

This achievement would not have been possible without the unwavering dedication of our dynamic team:
Dr. Aafrin Shabbir , Dr.Hariharan Sukumaran Ms. Jothi Lakshmi, and Dr. Shoba S P, along with support from many more who helped design, refine, and validate the wheel.

A heartfelt thank you to the thousands of patients, dietitians, diabetologists, endocrinologists, and physicians from around the world who contributed their valuable feedback and support. 🙏

This milestone reflects our shared commitment to advancing patient care. Let’s continue to innovate and make a meaningful impact — together.

Walking or gym workouts?

Both bring unique benefits. Walking is low-impact, accessible, and supports cardiovascular health, stress relief and recovery.

Gym workouts offer more intensity, variety, and strength training, which help build muscle and enhance endurance.

The real answer isn’t about choosing one over the other, but about what matches your fitness goals, preferences and routine.

Consistency is what ultimately keeps your heart stronger over time.

Did you know heart disease is the leading cause of death among women, more than all cancers combined?

Most people think of men when they hear “heart attack.” But the truth is, women face a silent and often overlooked risk.

Symptoms like fatigue, nausea, jaw pain or shortness of breath are easy to dismiss and that’s why too many cases go unnoticed until it’s too late.

On this World Heart Day, let’s change the story. Awareness, early diagnosis and timely care can save lives.

Women’s heart health matters.
