Protinex Diabetes Care has joined hands with Apollo Health Co (Apollo 24/7) in a strategic endeavour to improve diabetes management and encourage early detection. It aims to sensitize the public about the necessity of diabetes care and regular monitoring of blood sugar for effective long-term management.

Protinex Diabetes Care, in honor of World Diabetes Day, is providing free HbA1c tests for all its customers along with any of the Protinex Diabetes Care packs. The HbA1c test is very reliable for tracking average blood glucose levels for the last two to three months. As a part of this offer, through Apollo 24/7, customers can book a home collection for the test till November 30.

The initiative aims to encourage individuals to actively monitor their blood glucose levels and take proactive steps in managing their health, particularly during a time when diabetes rates are on the rise. According to the Indian Council of Medical Research's (ICMR) INDIAB study, India has over 101 million people living with diabetes, accounting for 11.4 percent of the population. Regular blood glucose testing, alongside proper management and lifestyle changes, plays a key role in improving the quality of life for individuals with diabetes.

Protinex Diabetes Care provides a scientifically designed formula to support blood sugar control, enriched with essential nutrients, including 11 immuno-nutrients to support immunity. The clinically proven Low GI formula and high fiber content further help reduce cholesterol. Through this collaboration, Protinex emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and effective management of diabetes.

In addition to the HbA1c test offer, Protinex Diabetes Care will ensure extensive visibility across Apollo retail stores and online platforms. The aim is to reach as many consumers as possible and educate them about the importance of early diabetes diagnosis and management.
