Thank you Hon’ble Prime Minister for highlighting the critical issue of antimicrobial resistance on Mann Ki Baat.
As rightly emphasised, antibiotics must be taken only on medical advice. Together, informed choices can protect the power of life-saving medicines.

Stability in #healthcare is not easy—both from a viability perspective + a public perception perspective. This is why companies like #Walmart despite having incredible community reach and deep retail roots, simply elect not to pursue this line of business. https://t.co/zFOG9ysmQC
Are Indians genetically more predisposed towards #coronary diseases? Comparative studies show it could be a mix of nature and nurture. Interesting insights. #HeartAttack#CardiacArrest#Cardiology

Polyphasic sleep (breaking sleep into multiple periods of short sleep) is typically seen in newborn babies and infants.
Pre-school children and older adults have biphasic sleep (longer sleep of 4-6 hours at night, and shorter sleep of 1-3 hours i afternoon).
Adults, teenagers and children typically need monophasic sleep (at nights).
If you lose just one hour of sleep, it could take 4 days to recover from that.
Sleep deprivation can cause various symptoms, such as headache, poor focus and attention, increased irritability, poor judgement, poor decision making and increased sleepiness.

If exercise does not lead to weight loss, is it worthless?
The answer is NO.
Many people who consult me report no significant weight loss despite exercising. They lose hope and want to quit exercising. My advice to them is to not give up and continue exercising.
A desire to lose weight is one of the main motivators for people to exercise, but it should not be the sole aim of exercising.
What are some of the health-related benefits that are associated with regular exercise (irrespective of weight loss)?
1⃣Increased insulin sensitivity,
2⃣Lowering of blood pressure (BP),
3⃣Redution in HbA1C,
4⃣Reduction in serum triglycerides,
5⃣Increase in HDL cholesterol,
6⃣Improvement in sleep quality & quantity,
7⃣Improvement in depressive symptoms,
8⃣Lower risk of diabetes,
9⃣Lower risk of cardiovascular diseases, such as stroke and heart attack,
🔟Improvement in cardiorespiratory fitness (VO2 Max),
⏸️Improvement in muscle mass and muscle strength,
These result in lower risk of premature mortality, lesser healthcare-related expenditure, and increase in healthy lifespan.
Just remember, majority of people diagnosed with heart attack, stroke or cancer are not obese, but they have other risk factors.
Take home message
1. Regular exercise is associated with multiple health-related benefits, irrespective of weight loss.
2. Do not stop exercising, if weight loss is not seen.
3. Healthy diet (carbohydrate restriction) plays a significant role in weight loss.
