From an HbA1c of 9% to 6.1% and Medicine-Free in Three Weeks: My FFD Journey

Niraja Jhala’s diabetes transformation with FFD

  • Name - Mrs. Niraja Nilay Jhala
  • Age - 63 Years Young
  • Profession - Retired Banker & QMAT Teacher
  • Place -  Mumbai, Maharashtra.
I never experienced alarming symptoms when diabetes was detected. A routine blood test, done when I was feeling tired, showed blood sugar levels around 270–300. Initially, medication brought my sugar levels into the normal range quickly. But when my HbA1c reached 9%, I knew I needed to take greater control of my health rather than simply depend on medicines.
 
Key Takeaways
 
• HbA1c improved from 9% to 6.1%
• Diabetes medicines stopped within 3 weeks
• Weight reduced from 71 kg to 62 kg
• hsCRP improved from 8.42 to 3.56
• SGPT-SGOT ratio improved from 1.25 to 0.80

My Diabetes Story

 
I initially took Glycomed 250 twice a day, before lunch and dinner. Apart from tiredness, I remember experiencing itching all over my body.

My paternal grandmother had diabetes, so I also had a family history.
 
When my HbA1c reached 9%, I decided it was time to understand my health better and look for a sustainable way forward.

How I Found FFD

 
I discovered Freedom From Diabetes through social media. My relatives, Mr. Ravi Adilapalli and Asha, who live in the US, had already completed the programme.

When Asha explained the process to me, I felt it was doable. I thought, “If it helps me stop my medicines and regain control of all my parameters, why not give it a try?”

My Reversal Journey

 
My transformation reflected in several health parameters:
 
• HbA1c: 9% → 6.1%
• Weight: 71 kg → 62 kg
• hsCRP: 8.42 → 3.56
• SGPT-SGOT ratio: 1.25 → 0.80
• Diabetes medicines: stopped within 3 weeks
 
I understand my body much better today. I know where I tend to falter and what I need to work on.

Although my recent move from Mumbai disrupted my routine and food schedule, I am determined to get back on track.

Inner Transformation

 
I am an NLP practitioner, so I did not require psychology sessions. Continuous learning, teaching, introspection, chanting, Reiki and crystal healing help me stay mentally active and calm. Helping others through these practices gives me a deep sense of accomplishment.
 

Athletic Identity

 
Strength training and Muscle Yoga were areas I could not pursue consistently during my relocation.

Once I settle into my new home, I look forward to restarting my exercise routine and rebuilding my consistency.

Current Lifestyle

 
My FFD journey has taught me that understanding my body is just as important as understanding my numbers.

Today, with an HbA1c of 6.1%, I feel more aware of my health and confident about taking the next step.
