In today's episode, we sit down with Dr. V Mohan - Chairman, Dr. Mohan's Diabetes Specialities Centre & Madras Diabetes Research Foundation, Chennai, India's leading diabetologist, a researcher with over 1,900 publications, and the man behind Mohan's Criteria, a diagnostic framework used by doctors worldwide.

We discuss why 92% of Indians fail to manage their diabetes, why being a thin Indian can be more dangerous than being an obese American, and why marrying within the family has quietly shaped our genes for generations. Dr. Mohan also breaks down the real difference between white sugar and jaggery, why monk fruit sugar might be worse than the sugar it replaces, how one small wound in a diabetic can end in amputation, and why he saved a three-month-old baby from 17,000 insulin injections with a one-rupee tablet.

Eye-opening, urgent, and full of things you'll want to check for your own family - this one will change how you think about diabetes, willpower, and what it actually takes to live a long, healthy life.
