Consumption of the these snacks has led to a worrying increase in diabetes and heart disease amongst the NRIs. Diabetes among the Sikhs is three times higher than within the white population, while heart disease is one-and-a-half times.

Health dept. are now visiting the city's Sikh temples to issues warnings and offer on the spot health checks. Rishpal Chana, an Aston-based health visitor for Heart of Birmingham Teaching Primary Care Trust, has found that nearly a third of those weighed and checked in the Sikh gurdwaras need immediate help from a GP" she said. Blood pressure and blood sugar tests are being offered in the temples on Sundays when they are at their busiest.
