Smriti Irani’s health fundas

"There are lots of health problems like heart diseases and diabetes and people are aware about their symptoms but not about kidney diseases so I have come here. I requested them to celebrate it publicly next year. Doctors are doing whatever they can but personally I feel that we should also do something about it," she opines.

Smriti is associated with many social causes and whenever she goes out she tries to spread awareness about it. Smriti is US's ambassador for ORS in India "I always ask people around me to go for early check ups because youngsters too can fall prey to such diseases. I myself know many in their 20s and 30s who are suffering from diabetes, BP and heart problems. It is more common in metros than rural areas," she says.

Smriti admits excess work is main reason for all problems. "Most of the times hypertension is the cause of various diseases. It is good that people are turning towards medications and yoga."

About her daily routine, she reveals, "I never get a chance to manage my routine, but whenever my doctors advice me I get tests done to make sure that my hectic schedule does not harm my health. Since I am mother of two children and 30 plus I do mammogram tests. I also manage to follow a diet. I do not consume non vegetarian food and avoid eating oily stuff. But everyone will come to know after watching me that I hardly get time to exercise!"
