It is commonly observed that infectious diseases are more frequent and/or serious in patients with diabetes mellitus. This is mainly caused by the hyperglycemic environment that favors immune dysfunction (e.g., damage to the neutrophil function, depression of the antioxidant system, and humoral immunity), micro- and macro-angiopathies, neuropathy, and other factors. In this regard, Danone and Docplexus have organized an interactive Webinar on 16 th June 2020 at 4:30 to 5:30 pm . In this interesting webinar, Dr.
V. Mohan will address these aspects in detail along with the management options from clinical and nutritional perspectives. We invite you to share your questions, which will be answered by the speakers at the end of the session.
