Obese at 14, diabetic at 24: How Kerala's fast food habit is ageing its teenagers fast
KOCHI: Given a chance to go back in time, Pragalbh PS (31) would change only one thing — the way he treated his health. As a teenager, he was obese, loved good food and rarely exercised.
Like many of his peers, he was focused on studies and chased ambitions, never imagining that his lifestyle would catch up with him so soon.
At 24, everything changed. He suddenly started losing weight and was easily exhausted. Alarmed, his parents — aware of the family history of lifestyle diseases — immediately took him to a doctor.
