How Wasim Akram a great cricketer manage his diabetes


One of the great fastest bowler in a cricket history is Waseem Akram. In 1997 it was a blow for him when he was diagnosed with diabetes. It was a shocking situation from him at that time because he even dont have family history, not over weight and a fit athlete

He started a new lifestyle with the help of his wife. He changed himself and adopted the ways to fight with diabetes which so far he manage to do. He is on insulin now and always keep sweets with him if the sugar level go lowers to stabilize it.

Even after diagnoses with diabetes he continue to play the game as a great bowler. His performance was not affected due to this disease because of diabetes management. Now even after retirement in a recent interview he told that he manage the diabetes through exercise and he is still fit.

WHO has appointed him as diabetes ambassador. One should learn from not only how to bowl in cricket rather how to manage the glucose levels too.
