Hi Gunjan,
We should conclude weather it is type 1 or type 2 diabetes. Weight reduction is very important in diabetes, otherwise it will lead to many other diseases like heart problems.
Doing regular exercise is very important. At least he should practice daily brisk walking.
Second thing is strict diet control. Avoid oily foods. Avoid extra sweets. One fruit per day, any fruit is accepted.
Frequent small meals is advised.
Wish him good luck.
