Health Minister Dr Ahmad Al-Awadhi said on Wednesday that the ministry's new 2026 Diabetes Nutrition Guide, published in both Arabic and English, represents a significant step forward in promoting nutritional awareness and supporting people living with diabetes. Speaking during the launch of the guide, titled "Live Safely," Al-Awadhi said the publication reflects the ministry's commitment to improving public health awareness by providing diabetic patients with a comprehensive scientific and practical reference to help them adopt healthy and safe eating habits.

He noted that diabetes is one of the most prevalent diseases in Kuwait and worldwide, describing the guide as a "nutrition consultant at home" that helps patients regulate blood sugar levels and prepare healthier meals both at home and in institutional kitchens operated by the Ministry of Health. Dr Al-Awadhi said the ministry's bilingual healthy recipes and nutritional values guide, launched last year, received widespread recognition in Kuwait and across the Arab world for promoting healthy eating.
