I Cleared My GTT and Reversed Diabetes at 60 – Without Medicines

Name - Mr. Sanjay Shah
Age - 60 Years Young
Profession - Investment Banker
Place - Mumbai, Maharashtra.

Hello, I’m Sanjay Shah, a former investment banker who spent over a decade in the corporate world. Today, I live a spiritually anchored life at the Art of Living – Triveni Ashram in Markal, Pune, serving as a full-time teacher with the Art of Living Foundation. But even with a disciplined lifestyle, when my HbA1c hit 6.9, I knew I had to act fast. That’s when I turned to Freedom from Diabetes (FFD)and never looked back.

Key Takeaways

Cleared the Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT)
HbA1c dropped from 6.9 to 6.3
Weight loss: from 88 kg to 70 kg, now maintaining 82 kg with better muscle mass
Practices Sudarshan Kriya once daily, meditation twice daily
Trekking achievement: Reached 17,000 feet in the Markha Valley

My Diabetes Story

Despite living a spiritually aware and relatively healthy lifestyle, a routine health check-up showed that my HbA1c had reached 6.9.

I had no external symptoms, but the rise in blood sugar was a wake-up call, especially given my family history of diabetes.

I didn’t want to go down the medication path if it could be avoided.

That’s when I reached out to my cousin, Urmil shah, who had successfully reversed diabetes through FFD. Inspired by his transformation, I chose the same route.

Why I Chose FFD

I’ve always believed that when a method works for someone you trust, it's worth trying. After watching Dr. Pramod Tripathi’s videos and testimonials, I was convinced.

The balance of science, structure, and holistic healing aligned perfectly with my spiritual values.

Reversal Journey

At the time of joining, I was 88 kg and at the tipping point of being diabetic. Thanks to FFD’s structured diet, fasting protocols, and lifestyle education, I:

Dropped to 70 kg, and now maintain 82 kg with improved strength
Cleared my GTT despite having an HbA1c of 6.3

Athletic & Spiritual Identity

I’ve always had an active streak swimming 1 km regularly and trekking has been integral to my life. My most memorable experience was trekking up to 17,000 feet in the Markha Valley.

Now, I combine FFD workouts with yoga and strength training and ensure that I never skip exercise for more than 3 days.

On the spiritual front, I’ve been practicing Sudarshan Kriya once daily and meditating twice daily for the last 30+ years.

FFD enhanced this inner discipline by giving me clarity around food, fasting, and energy flow.

Current Lifestyle & Reflections

Even after decades of awareness, FFD helped me bridge the last few lifestyle gaps.

From better food choices to understanding how sugar sneaks in even through natural sweeteners my awareness is sharper than ever.

I feel more in control, more balanced, and more alive.
