As a South Asian you
have to be a extra alert because it takes very little excess
weight for South Asians to develop high cholesterol,
diabetes and heart disease.
Thus, the abnormal BMI
(body mass index) cutoff has been lowered to 23 for South
Asians in comparison to 25 for the general population.

cholesterol and a heart healthy diet.
Brave souls who have

may be popular abroad but the
actress claims she is virtually unknown in India. “I have
done no film in India so it is very hard for people to

waves in India. While the actress is now working in
international cinema, she has yet to receive any offers from
India. “I haven’t been directly approached to do a Bollywood
film. After Slumdog Millionaire I was given scripts
to read but was not directly approached. I don’t think I fit
the bill,” she claimed.
Just about 20 years
ago if you asked someone to look something up, they would
