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.

Dr. Meghana Pasi, Head, MyThali, Arogya World, says, “In as stressful situation, cortisol and adrenaline (stress hormones) play a crucial role in preparing the body for a “fight or flight” response. However, recurrent episodes of stress / chronic stress can lead to the elevation of these hormones, negatively impacting mental and physical health. For eg. elevated levels of cortisol, can lead to weight gain, #anxiety, depression, #weakened immune function, and various other #chronic conditions.” https://lnkd.in/dM-p4_WR

"It’s that time of the year when students embark on a journey of independence, #exploration, and maybe even a few late-night study #sessions fuelled by questionable food choices. But amid the whirlwind of new experiences, don’t forget to #prioritize one thing: your #health. The habits you form now can have a major impact on your #well-being for years to come. This is especially true because #adolescence isn’t exactly known for its focus on preventive health," says Dr Smriti Pahwa, Director Healthy Schools Program of Arogya World in an exclusive chat with The Hindu. https://lnkd.in/deV3sBvF
