I love “No more Diabetes” song which we created in three languages French, English and Portuguese.

“I would also like to thank our viewers for the amazing response we have been receiving, this is indeed very inspiring and encouraging. Moreover, I would especially like to acknowledge the love we have been receiving from our social media followers, it is phenomenal,” emphasized Senator, Dr. Rasha Kelej.
According to WHO, a Healthy lifestyle is a way of living that helps one enjoy more aspects of life. Health is not just about avoiding a disease or illness. It is about physical, mental, and social well-being too. However, in the case of Africa with rapid urbanization and higher incomes, the lack of physical activity and the demand for convenient – processed foods is expanding rapidly. Many of the processed foods are high in sugar, salt, saturated fats, and/or preservatives and thus contribute to overweight and the spread of non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer.
The fourth episode featured important guests from Mauritius – Dr. Sabrina Devi Ramamy Iranah, Director of Fashion&Design Institute, and Jean Luc Emile, Managing Editor, Defi Media Group. Young and upcoming Fashion Designers from Mauritius – Desire Cedric Vincent and Deena Appaddo also showcased their designs with messages on promoting a Healthy Lifestyle during this episode.
