My Diabetes Story

My diabetes journey began back in 2009, though the root cause wasn’t diabetes itself it was steroids.

I had developed severe joint pain, and an orthopaedic doctor prescribed strong steroid-based medicines.

Within days, my pain vanished, and I felt better than ever. What I didn’t realize was that these steroids were silently pushing me toward diabetes.

Six months later, when another doctor reviewed my case, he was shocked to find I had been on heavy steroids all that time.

They stopped gradually, but by then, diabetes had already entered my life. From that point on, I was put on oral medications and continued them for nearly a decade.

How FFD Was Introduced to Me

In 2019, my daughter Anuradha began searching online for natural ways to manage my condition.

She came across the concept of diabetes reversal and found Freedom From Diabetes (FFD) through social media.

After reading reviews and learning about the residential TRP (Transformative Residential Program), she decided to enroll both of us.

That experience was nothing short of eye-opening. From understanding how dairy impacts health to learning plant-based cooking, it completely changed the way we looked at food and healing.

My Reversal Story

Post-TRP, I followed FFD’s diet and lifestyle protocols sincerely.

My weight gradually dropped from around 69 kg to 54 kg, a healthy transformation that made me feel lighter and more energetic.

Within months, my diabetes medicine dosage reduced significantly, and for the first time in years, my sugar readings began to stabilize naturally.

My HbA1c dropped from 6.9 (with medicines) to 5.4, a small but meaningful milestone for me.

I also underwent angioplasty, and though recovery was challenging, the FFD lifestyle helped me regain my strength faster.

Even during difficult phases like my bout with shingles that temporarily affected my activity the structured guidance from FFD kept me on track.

Now, under the Holistic Transformation Program (HTP), I’m rebuilding consistency and gradually working toward complete medicine freedom.

Athletic Identity

Due to my age and the nerve damage caused by shingles, my exercise routine was limited for a few months.

But I’ve slowly resumed physical activity with light walking and guided movement.

With support from my daughter, I continue to stay active within my capacity.

Even on days when my energy dips, I make sure to stay engaged because every small effort counts.

Current Lifestyle & Reflection

Today, I follow a strictly plant-based diet, completely free from dairy and processed foods.

My daughter and I have become creative in the kitchen making delicious vegan alternatives to dishes like batata vada and even vegan Thai curries!

I’ve realized that food is truly medicine, and discipline is the key to lasting health.

I feel calmer, more in control, and thankful for the knowledge this journey has given me.

Key Quote

“FFD didn’t just change my diet, it changed my mindset. After 16 years of diabetes, I’m finally on the path of healing, strength, and self-reliance.”
