Namaste,
I’m Raghawendra Nath Tripathi, a 61-year-old health and pressure vessel inspection expert from Ghaziabad. My life’s journey has included the professional challenges of engineering projects and personal challenges like hypertension, sarcoidosis, and rising blood sugar. But thanks to a combination of long-standing spiritual practice, naturopathy, and support from Freedom From Diabetes (FFD), I now live a medicine-free life that feels lighter, cleaner, and far more fulfilling.

Key Takeaways

HbA1c reduced from 7.7 to 5.1 (lowest 4.9)
Diabetes medication stopped within 1 month of starting FFD
Weight dropped from 82 kg to 74.4 kg to 61 kg over 9 months
Improved BP control through disciplined lifestyle
Combined FFD with naturopathy, spiritual healing, and emotional work

My Health Story

I was diagnosed with hypertension way back in 1994, and have been managing chronic constipation and prostate issues for decades. In 2021, I developed uveitis in my right eye and was later diagnosed with sarcoidosis.

At this point, I began exploring naturopathy and spiritual healing more seriously.

In March 2024, I noticed rising sugar levels. A doctor prescribed diabetes medication, but I had already resolved to live medicine-free. That’s when I leaned more deeply into naturopathy, yoga, Ayurveda, and holistic practices to restore balance and joined FFD soon after.

My FFD Experience

I discovered Dr. Pramod Tripathi through a video shared by Dr. B.M. Hegde, and his grounded, structured, and scientific approach to lifestyle-based healing really resonated with me.

In April 2024, I joined Batch 104. Though I had already started losing weight and working on myself earlier that year, FFD brought structure, accountability, and deepened discipline into my routine.

The FFD App, expert support, and resources like “Power vs Force” and “Letting Go” (suggested by Dr. Tripathi) helped me stay focused on the inner and outer healing journey.

Fitness and Physical Transformation

I initially dropped 8 kg before joining FFD, and another 13.5 kg after, reaching 61 kg
I can now perform 108 Surya Namaskars
I regularly complete 108 squats without strain
I’ve regained stamina, flexibility, and energy I hadn’t felt in years

Inner Transformation and Holistic Healing

Even before FFD, I practiced meditation and spiritual healing with the Tej Gyan Foundation since 2004. FFD helped reinforce those practices and align them with diet, movement, and emotional health.

I also included:

Naturopathy practices (started 2021, intensified post-FFD)
Yoga and Pranayama routines
Emotional healing techniques to release past trauma and calm the nervous system

Together, this helped not only in sugar control but also in managing BP, improving energy, and living with more peace and joy.

Current Lifestyle and Reflection

I now lead a minimalist, spiritual, and structured lifestyle. I don’t follow heavy gym regimens, but prefer sustainable routines that honor my energy and age. I eat clean, stay active, and meditate regularly.

Even after completing my official FFD program, I continue to live by its principles, using it as a framework alongside naturopathy and inner work.
