Despite a steady rise in lifestyle diseases across India, preventive healthcare continues to remain on the margins.
Many Indians experience chronic physiological stress and invisible burnout without obvious illness symptoms.
KEY POINTS
- Preventive healthcare is often deprioritized due to cultural fears of discovering illness during check-ups.
- Financial concerns and low perceived value lead households to avoid routine screenings until illness occurs.
- Urban Indians' busy lifestyles and lack of symptoms create a false sense of health security.
- Dr Kumar J M recommends monthly blood pressure and BMI checks, and annual metabolic screenings for prevention.
