Health is your fundamental right
We are a coalition of doctors, nutritionists, patients, and families who believe every Pakistani deserves the knowledge and tools to live a life free from the grip of diabesity. This is our promise to you and to Pakistan.
Our Story
This devastating link between diabetes and obesity, is not a statistic. It's our parents, our siblings, our friends.
We saw a nation grappling with the world's highest rate of diabetes, yet facing a wall of misinformation, stigma, and resources that didn't fit our culture or our lives. The advice was generic, the meal plans were foreign, and the conversation was happening in whispers, if at all.
We knew we couldn't stand by while this silent epidemic stole the health and futures of millions.
So, we built the solution we needed. Diabesity Pakistan is your clear path forward. It was founded to bridge the gaps, to replace confusion with clarity, and to empower you with guidance tailored for the realities of life in Pakistan.
