About us
Arogya World works to reduce the global impact of chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs), one community at a time. Serving as a global catalyst, we are putting a spotlight on NCDs, and are at the forefront of a movement that is galvanizing action to prevent these serious diseases. The incidence of diabetes has reached catastrophic levels. In India, we are demonstrating our commitment to this urgent health crisis by focusing our efforts on prevention of diabetes through lifestyle changes. Arogya World is a U.S. based non-profit organization striving to change the course of chronic disease. The name of the organization is simply an articulation of our mission: Arogya in Sanskrit means good health. More literally it means to live a life without disease.

Eating out or ordering food has become a growing trend in India. Below 50 years of age, about 70% dine outside 1-3 times per week, and 15% eat out around 4-6 times per week. However, the increasing fast food consumption contributes significantly to the rise in diet-related non-communicable diseases (NCDs). This surge in NCDs like #diabetes, #cancer, and #cardiovascular diseases can be attributed at large to poor dietary choices and unhealthy eating habits. https://lnkd.in/dwHNekxY

This Sunday, AiSteth was proud to offer cardiovascular screenings at the Diwali Health Mela, organized by MyThali (Arogya World) in Bengaluru. Our team had the honor of demonstrating our Ai-enabled stethoscope to Shri Dinesh Gundu Rao, Minister of Health and Family Welfare, Govt. of Karnataka, who visited our booth and underwent a screening himself. This interaction exemplifies the growing recognition of innovative technologies that are shaping the future of preventive healthcare. As we strive to reduce premature deaths from non-communicable diseases, such engagements with policymakers are crucial for bridging the gap between innovation and implementation. We're grateful for such platforms that allow us to showcase AiSteth's capabilities in real-world settings. Minister Rao's interest in our technology underscores the potential of Ai-driven solutions in enhancing healthcare accessibility and early detection. We remain committed to collaborating with stakeholders across the healthcare ecosystem to create a more proactive and efficient health system for all. #AiSteth #SeeTheSound #NCDs #SDG3 #ActOnNCDs #CardiovascularHealth Department of Health and Family Welfare Services - Govt. of Karnataka Indian Institute of Science (IISc) Social Alpha Foundation for Science, Innovation and Development, IISc Bangalore Sound Hub Denmark PATH Neeraj Jain Government of Karnataka
