Diabesity

Diabesity is a term used to describe the close connection between obesity and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Excess weight can worsen insulin resistance, making blood sugar control more difficult and increasing the risk of long-term complications. At Zulekha Hospitals, we provide advanced diabetes treatment in Dubai, combining medical expertise and long-term support tailored to each patient’s needs.
