Abstract: Background - The Prakriti of a person is quite capable of providing a fair indication of physiological strengths and weaknesses, mental tendencies, and susceptibility to illnesses of various types. (Subhojit Dey and Parika Pahwa et al. 2014). Dietary habits are the habitual decisions an individual or culture makes when choosing what foods to eat. It’s the food choices preferred by persons in their daily life. Lifestyle diseases characterize those diseases whose occurrence is primarily based on the daily habits of people and are a result of an inappropriate relationship of people with their environment. In the present study, Diabetes and Hypertension are the lifestyle diseases considered. Globally, T2DM is at present one of the most common diseases and its levels are progressively on the rise (Tahir Ansari et al. 2017). Consumption of high dietary salt, fat and sedentary lifestyle is among the significant risk factors for hypertension. Hypertension can be effectively managed through Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) and reducing salt intake (Kumbla, D., Dharmalingam, M et al.2016) Aim - The aim of the study is to assess the effect of prakriti, dietary & lifestyle habits on the health status of individuals aged 18-60 years Methods - The study was carried out on 100 individuals between 18 to 60 years of age in Mumbai. The Prakriti of the participants was assessed and it was correlated with diabetes or hypertension along with their dietary habits and lifestyle choices. The participants were divided into two groups. The Healthy group consisted of healthy individuals without diabetes and hypertension (n=41). The Diabetes and Hypertension group consisted of individuals with diabetes and hypertension (n=59). Individuals were at first asked to fill an informed consent form and those who voluntarily agreed to participate were included and asked to complete the self reported questionnaire. Data collection included receiving responses for the questionnaire which consisted of general & socio demographic details, anthropometric measurements, medical history, quality of life, dietary habits, physical activity, sleep quality and dietary recall was obtained. Data was analyzed using spss version 20. Significance for all the statistical measures was determined at 0.05 level. Results - There was no correlation found between Kapha Prakriti and Diabetes or Hypertension. Vata and Pitta Prakriti participants from both the groups had more temptation for foods such as cakes, crisps, biscuits, cola, chocolate, etc. Kapha Prakriti participants had excellent quality of life in the Diabetes and Hypertension group. In the Healthy Group, participants had less number of days of physical or mental illness which was statistically significant (p value=0.000). In the Diabetes and Hypertension Group, the maximum number of days with depression was higher when compared to the Healthy Group. It was statistically significant (p value=0.002). In the Diabetes and Hypertension Group, the maximum number of days of anxiety was higher when compared to the Healthy Group. It was statistically significant (p value=0.011). Overall sleep quality was higher in the Vata Prakriti participants in the Healthy group. It was statistically significant (p value=0.010). Most Pitta and Vata Prakriti participants had pain for “Once or twice a week” in the Diabetes and Hypertension Group. It was statistically significant (p value=0.038). The mean average number of days of vigorous activities was highest for Vata Prakriti participants for both the groups. Conclusion - When correlating Prakriti with dietary habits it was found that Vata and Pitta participants with Diabetes or Hypertension had more temptation for highly processed foods. Overall sleep quality was higher in the Vata Prakriti participants and Pitta and Kapha Prakriti participants had problems with sleep. When associated with physical activity Vata Prakriti participants performed better. This shows that Prakriti assessment, good dietary habits along with physical activity and sleep quality play an important role to prevent and lower the risk of lifestyle diseases.
