Diabetes is no longer just a disease, it is an epidemic. The statistics say that every 1 in 3 people is diabetic now. So, do we need to control this chronic disease so that it doesn't control our lifestyle? The answer to this question lies in our ancient scriptures. Yoga can regulate your diabetes. If you practice the right yoga poses, your blood sugar will stay under control. Some of the most popular yoga asanas like the triangle pose is great for diabetics. Other yoga poses like the fish or matsya asana is also very helpful to regulate blood sugar. Another very common yoga pose that diabetics can try is the corpse pose or savasana. In this yoga posture, you just have to lie flat on your back like a corpse. Some yoga poses for diabetes are also complex. For example, Marichyasana is a yoga asana that needs a lot of practice to master. Beginners should not try this as they might injure themselves. These are some of the best yoga poses for diabetes that you must try in order to keep your blood sugar levels under control.

Dear M.S.Mani you yourself has to be bold and firm;pledge yourself to quit smoking in one go and not in instalment .You can try some like ...........

1.Post this list in a visible location in your house. Whenever you’re tempted to light up, take a look at all the ways smoking can damage your health:

Increases risk of lung, bladder, pancreatic, mouth, esophageal, and other cancers, including leukemia

Contributes to thin bones

Affects mental capacity and memory

Reduces levels of folate, low levels of which can increase the risk of heart disease, depression, and Alzheimer’s disease

Increases likelihood of impotence

Affects ability to smell and taste

Increases risk of depression in adolescents

2.Find a healthy snack food you when have urge to smoke

3. Switch your cigarette habit for a nut habit — whenever a cig craving hits.

4. Carry some cinnamon-flavored toothpicks with you. Suck on one whenever a cig craving hits.

5.Switch to a cup of herbal tea whenever you usually have a cigarette.

6.

Additional tips to deal with cravings and withdrawal symptoms

Stay active: Keep yourself distracted and occupied, go for walks.

Keep your hands/fingers busy: Squeeze balls, pencils, or paper clips are good substitutes to satisfy that need for tactile stimulation.

Keep your mind busy: Read a book or magazine, listen to some music you love.

Find an oral substitute: Keep other things around to pop in your mouth when you’re craving a cigarette.

Good choices include mints, hard candy, carrot or celery sticks, gum, and sunflower seeds.

Drink lots of water: Flushing toxins from your body minimizes withdrawal symptoms and helps cravings pass faster.

7.Do meditation early in the morning ,;GOD will give you strength
