Description

The beaches, the lifestyle, the beauty, the buildings—these are just some of the things Dubai is most known for. But like the rest of the world, obesity and diabetes are also on the rise here. Thankfully, so is awareness about these "lifestyle" diseases. In the United Arab Emirates, there is a growing movement to try and address this worrisome trend; and much of it starts on the ground level, with people just like you and me. Journey to Dubai with Dr. Sanjay Gupta to explore the ways people are working to stay healthy and what we can all learn from their experiences.
