Hello, my name is Vasant Babu, I am 76 years old, and I live in Hyderabad. I am a retired individual, and I have been living with diabetes for the past 25 years.
For many years, managing diabetes felt like a routine with medicines and regular monitoring. But things started to change when I discovered a different approach through the Freedom From Diabetes program.
Today, I am medicine-free, active, and independent, even at this age.
 
Key Takeaways
  • Diabetic for 25 Years
  • HbA1c improved from 8 to 6.5 in 6 months
  • Stopped 2000 mg daily medication within 3 months
  • Significant improvement in energy and activity levels
  • Walks 1.5 hours daily at the age of 76
  • Improved cholesterol markers (TG/HDL ratio)

My Diabetes Story

My diabetes diagnosis happened unexpectedly.
 
Around 25 years ago, I had a minor injury on my leg, and when I went to the doctor for treatment, he noticed that the wound was healing slowly.
 
That led him to check my blood sugar levels, and that’s when I discovered that I had diabetes.

There was no strong family history, except one sibling, so it wasn’t something I had anticipated.

From that point onward, I continued managing diabetes with regular medication, which became a part of my daily routine.

How I Found Freedom From Diabetes

I came across Freedom From Diabetes through the internet.

What attracted me the most was the idea that diabetes could be managed and reversed without lifelong dependence on medicines.

It felt like a safe and natural approach, and that motivated me to join the program.

My Reversal Journey

When I joined the program, my HbA1c was around 8, and I was taking around 2000 mg of medication daily (Metformin).

After starting the program, I saw quick improvements.

Within the first week, my medication dose was reduced by half, and over the next 2–3 months, I was able to completely stop diabetes medicines.

Today, my HbA1c stays around 6.5, which is a significant improvement considering my long history with diabetes.

Health Improvements

One of the biggest changes I experienced was in my energy and activity levels.

At the age of 76, I am able to walk for about 1.5 hours daily and manage my daily activities independently without any difficulty.

My cholesterol markers, including TG/HDL ratio, have also improved and are now within a better range.

There were some fluctuations in my thyroid levels, but with proper dietary adjustments and guidance, I have been able to manage them better.

Athletic Identity

I keep my routine simple and consistent.

I walk daily, which has become a strong part of my lifestyle.

Additionally, I practice Surya Namaskar once a week, where I am able to complete around 40 rounds in one session.

At my age, this itself feels like a great achievement and keeps me physically active.

Current Lifestyle & Reflection

Following the FFD lifestyle was easy for me, as I am not very particular about food and could adapt to the recommended diet comfortably.

I have also tried fasting protocols, which I was able to complete without any major difficulty.

Today, I feel more independent, active, and confident about my health.
