Why Ludhiana needs a diabetes-first meal plan

Punjab's T2D rate is the highest in India for a reason — the diet is one of the most calorie- and fat-dense regional cuisines on earth, and modern Ludhiana barely walks compared to the farming grandparents this food was engineered for. The solution is not abandoning Punjabi food; it's portion-resizing, using lassi without sugar, and rotating in saag-makki for its naturally low GI.

State-level adult T2D prevalence: ~14.7%. Punjab has India's highest adult T2D prevalence; Ludhiana's industrial diet (butter, ghee, lassi) is world-famous in diabetes research.India is home to approximately 101 million adults living with Type 2 diabetes (ICMR-INDIAB, 2023) — one of the world's largest at-risk populations.
