My Story

My diabetes journey began around 30 years ago while gardening, with a skin reaction on my hands and feet. While gardening I felt sudden tingling in the forearm & lower legs.  I also experienced sudden sleepiness after eating and lethargy.

I also noticed unusual fatigue and diminished vision, leading to my diagnosis. Diabetes runs in my family; two elder brothers are diabetic.

Initially, I managed it well for 7-8 years with morning walks, running, yoga, pranayama, diet control (being a doctor myself), and even horse riding. However, complications arose, including boils on my legs, leading to a long period of medication, including insulin (35 units morning, 25 evening).

Hard labor from farming, combined with dehydration, caused multiple diabetic episodes and jaundice.

My life has been marked by hardship: losing my mother at 7-8 and my father during pre-science, causing deep grief. Financial struggles forced me to work at a dairy in Akola to survive and pursue my studies.

I completed DHMS and then my MD in 2006, becoming Akola's first MD. I held various academic and examining roles while continuing my education.

I have two elder brothers one with diabetes and Kidney problem. The other with mental problems ( Anxiety, depression).   Mother and father also suffered from mental disorder.

Stress was constant: educating myself, arranging siblings' marriages, and raising my two children alone after my wife passed away.

My daughter is now married, and my son, after returning from the Netherlands, lives in Pune, though I worry about his unmarried status.

How was FFD introduced and what made me choose it?

My son Rahul who lives in Netherlands suggested me about FFD and also paid the fees so that I surely join it.

I also discovered FFD through Dr. Pramod Tripathi's YouTube videos and lectures. Already a knowledge seeker, I devoured diabetes content.

A patient then introduced me to Dr. Tripathi's book, where I found recipes like the smoothie. While I didn't try the smoothie immediately, I did begin exploring the simple dietary suggestions.

I finally enrolled in the annual program HTP.

Reversal Story

The FFD team studied my case in detail and designed a customized plan.

Currently, my sugar levels are normal at 95, and my BP has significantly reduced—from 150/150 to around 70/45. While eye problems persist, my diabetes and blood pressure are now under control through lifestyle and diet.

I was never overweight so weight loss was never on target.

The FFD program based on four protocols - diet, exercise, inner transformation, and medical is the only way to gain optimal health.

I am practicing Pure Homeopathy that is why my benefits are multifolded.  I am 70 years old, but they guided me like a child.  This guidance is useful for my patients also.  I suggest FFD to many patients.
