South Asian Health beliefs about Diabetes
Abul Rais speaks openly about health beliefs in the South Asian Community. He mentions why people might be keen to try herbal and homeopathic medicines and perhaps be concerned with modern medicine. He also gives examples of people he’s met not using the medicine as it is meant to be used - this may reduce its benefit. He also mentions traditional ‘Hakim’ healers. He talks about the importance of being sensitive in your approach to do the most good.
