Hello all,

I'm Nilima Anil Vadanagekar a housewife from Pune.

My diabetes story

At the age of 51, I found myself struggling with some alarming symptoms that were indicative of diabetes. My sugars were extremely high, hovering around the 450 mark. The excessive sweating every two hours was incredibly upsetting and made it difficult for me to carry out my daily routine.

As someone who was premenopausal at the time, these symptoms were particularly concerning. My body was also showing the classical triad symptoms associated with diabetes - polyuria, polydipsia, and polyphagia.

Unfortunately, my family history did not offer much reassurance either; my mother had developed diabetes in her late 70s while my elder brother's diagnosis came later in life between the ages of 55-60 years old.

In addition to these signs pointing towards a potential diabetic condition, I also began experiencing indigestion problems four years before joining FFD (in 2018). Whenever I ate sweet food or anything high in sugar content, my blood sugar levels would spike significantly higher than usual.

Then eventually things took a turn for the worse when in June 2022 a viral infection struck me down causing a temperature surge up to 102 degrees Fahrenheit. Despite heavy medication doses over two months period post-infection recovery process, my sugar levels remained stubbornly elevated around 375-400.

How did FFD happen?


While scrolling through a group chat on WhatsApp, I stumbled upon a link that talked about FFD by Dr. B.M. Hegde and its potential to help with diabetes. As someone who was struggling with diabetes for years, this piqued my interest immediately.

What made choose FFD?


I wanted  Freedom From Diabetes because it is a very dangerous disease that leads to several complications.  I wished to lead a healthy life and help others. FFD offered hope. The introductory webinar by Dr. Pramod Tripathi added to my confidence and I enrolled in Freedom from Diabetes type 2 diabetes reversal program - HTP immediately

Reversal story


The FFD program has been a godsend for me when it comes to managing my diabetes. With its 4 pillar protocols of diet, exercise, inner transformation, and medical support, this program is well-designed and equipped to deal with the complex needs of diabetic patients like myself.

After joining the program, I have seen a significant improvement in my health and overall well-being. The fact that my diabetes medication took just 6-7 months to stop altogether is a testament to how effective this program truly is.   Additionally, I have managed to lose 9 kg through the program which is nothing short of superb!

My HbA1c levels went from an alarming 8 down to an impressive 5.6 - something that was unimaginable before starting on this journey with FFD.

Of course, there are some challenges along the way such as feeling a little weak at times due to all the changes happening in my body but I know that these are temporary setbacks that can be overcome with appropriate guidance from the amazing team at FFD who have been there for me every step of the way.

I have been a good swimmer and used to walk up to 5 km daily.  I am sure I will get back on this track soon.
