Malaysians told to change dietary habits

KUALA LUMPUR: Many Malayآ­sians have not changed their eating habits because they are still unaware of the medical complications that can hit those with diabetes, says a dietitian with Universiti Malaya (UM).

For this reason, dietitian Suhaili Suboh suggested sugary drinks carry pictures showing complications from diabetes, such as limb amputation, kidney problems, eye and heart problems, so that people will be deterred from consuming too much of these drinks.
