How British colonialism increased diabetes in south Asians | It's Complicated

This is NOT "NEW" REsearch. This is HIDDEN information deliberately kept from us. And, lots more truths will come to light as time go by. The TRUTH behind this reality is...Britain should be held responsible for all the EVIL she had done

UK should repay India at a monthly basis till the total looten money is paid back with Interest and Inflation included

The handy review and well measured

NOW INDIA IS BHARAT

India 🇮🇳 🇮🇳 🇮🇳 🇮🇳 🇮🇳 India 🇮🇳 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊India 🇮🇳

Shall we do a video on british inventions such as antibiotics or the hypodermic needle and how these inventions saved more lives than literally anything in the history of the human race? 🤔



Nah lets skip that one. That wouldn't fit very well with our narrative, would it?

Coca cola

As a Bangladeshi I’m glad that more people are learning about this

Shocking truth.

Plenty of forests for people to forage. This video is sponsored by bjp.

😢

Fascinating!
I wonder also what the cultural effects were. I come from Eastern Europe where putting a lot of food on the table is often seen as a consequence of past privations,

So diabetes is now due to colonialism? I would counter with the fact that most Indians are vegetarian and therefore only eat carbohydrates. A lifetime of only eating carbohydrates is bound to give you type 2 diabetes. There are many countries which have experienced famine (China during the great leap forward and Ukraine during the Holodomor) but due to the fact that their people eat meat as a standard part of their diet ensures that the rates of diabetes aren't as high as those on the Indian subcontinent.

Thank you for this documentary. Britain just continues to get exposed for its historical and ongoing racist and colonial ideology and tactics. Britain then thinks it has the right to lecture other countries on their human rights.

Churchill wasn’t TOO different from Adolf hitter

Isn't anyone going to talk about how Kashmir is shown as a part of Pakistan?

A couple of counterpoints:

- The United States has one of the highest prevalences of diabetes in the world, despite having no history of famine.
- Within the United States there are racial differences in the prevalence of diabetes, which cannot properly be explained by famine: Hispanics and Native Americans have much higher rates than whites.
- It's ridiculous to blame all India's famines on Britain. Some were exacerbated by British policies, yes. But for balance look at the history of China, which had just as many major famines in the same time period, despite never being colonised.
- Additionally, nearly all of India's famines were over three generations ago, and few overlap with each other (meaning the same population were repeatedly exposed).
- Further, India still has relatively high levels of malnutrition today. Though it is falling this shows that historical famines are less likely to be a cause of higher prevalence of diabetes than modern diet, and also that Britain was less the propagator than claimed in this video.

But still Indians believe British was better than Mughals.Mughals ruled 500 year s to make India greatest economy on world.There is a difference between ruling & colonising

Wow

Hopefully one day india will become richest country and rule the world and UK will become poor.

How British colonialism is still affecting the people of Palestine today

Thank you for this informative episode. I don’t think many doctors in the US are cognizant of these epigenetic effects and automatically assume that a South Asian diabetic patient must be making unhealthy diet choices, offering no sympathy for the fact that they bear the legacy of colonialism

Surely I’m not the only one questioning the validity of the data behind this hypothesis… am I?

...and they just got away with it

Yep! Absolutely nothing to do with their standard high carb, high sugar, high refined oil and low animal protein diet.

Colonialism still exists in many ways be honest

So starvation can cause diabetes? Then the fasting we do today for health benefits will have the same impact?

The news reader voice modulation is just irritating!

It’s all the processed vegetable oils in their diets

In India especially in states of Andhra & Telangana we are following VRK diet since 2017 to reverse diabetes, Blood pressure , Thyroid, Autoimmune diseases and even cancers with this diet. which is mainly based on Fats like Coconut oil, Ghee & butter it is miraculous diet

I am Bengali, and if I develop type 2 diabetes in the future, I'm gonna blame it on the British.

This explanation risk of being misunderstood by potential and current diabetes patients. This disease requires knowledge and will in tuning one's lifestyle. By saying that ita hereditary, the patient might accept his/her supposed fate and continue the unhealthy lifestyle. Where as this disease is easily avoidable without any medication at all.

Famines, brutally supressing opposition and partition. Millions of people died under their rule. Let that sink in. Millions.

Was any DNA study made on the population of south Asia to find out the genetic mutation causing diabetes? Or is this is just a conjecture? Why are there so many diabetics in the developmed countries like Canada?

Important to know. I have diabetes 2 at the age of 23, and it makes sense why.

So called civilized British.

Im British and i dont care. I love the British Empire. We are the best. 🇬🇧

cut all white sugar, or sugar in general, eat less rice and wheat, eat more protein and enough fiber and eat eggs veggies, nuts, meats, fruits. cut all the processed junk foods and street foods. and start learning cooking.

Thats what I mean you only hear only one side of story Churchill was a mass murderer and he used applauded whilst “others” are branded villains because they dont fit the western narrative of history! Most of the accurate History we still dont know

Shameful, but important history to be known

colonialism must explain the same epidemic of diabetes in native americans

Apart from diabetics, their brutality and cruelty specifically in collecting tax is unforgivable. But the facts are now forgotten which should be revealed. Third one of total GDP of Britain came from British INDIA at that time. They made a richest sub continent in to poor

An interesting video with no maths shown. We need experts to research fully. Saying there was a recorded XX number of famines, well it's recorded. I'm not sure it was so well recorded 2,000 years ago... It's interesting there's no mention of the numbers of those famines, and their effects. Please also note "The British" really means the ruling classes making the decisions, not normal working class folks.

More scientific research is welcomed 👍

You are used a wrong map of India 🇮🇳

Dogs and Indians not allowed- were the boards saying outside many fancy establishments before 1947

South Asians eat too much rice, chaptti/ Nan, fried foods and sweets.

One dislike for the distorted indian map.... you people really think that you can show your prapaganda against india and still exist in this world? ......we'll see...... jai hind

churchill a dutty tutty

Muh imperialism
