My Diabetes Story
My journey with diabetes began 13 years ago. Initially, I noticed mild symptoms like persistent urine itching and a subtle increase in appetite.
I went for a checkup, and my blood sugar came back elevated with an initial HbA1c of 6.5. Diabetes was not entire news to my family, as both my parents and my mother-in-law were diabetic patients.
I was prescribed daily medication, which I took dutifully for years. However, four years ago, my life changed drastically when my husband passed away.
As a single parent left to care for my child, the emotional trauma, stress, and anxiety took a severe toll on my health.
My HbA1c surged and remained stuck at 10 to 11 for over a year despite taking heavy medications like Istamet 50/500 twice daily.

How I Found FFD
Seeing my struggle with high sugars and emotional stress, my brother Bhanu Krishna stepped in to help.
He lives in Europe and had personally joined the Freedom from Diabetes (FFD) Obesity program last year with great success.
Seeing his health transformation, he strongly recommended that I try FFD. Encouraged by his confidence in the program, I decided to join.

Mrs. Adiseshu Devi IthamsettiMy Reversal Journey
When I started the Holistic Transformation Program (HTP), I was taking Istamet 50/500 twice daily—a dose of 100 mg / 1000 mg per day.
Guided by proper medical supervision, dietary adjustments, and lifestyle changes, my blood sugar levels dropped steadily.
Within just three months, my doctors gradually tapered off my dosage until I became completely medicine-free, while my HbA1c plummeted from a daunting 10.8 down to 5.9.
Beyond sugar control, my overall organ health transformed remarkably: I shed 10 kg, dropping from 68 kg to 58 kg, while my systemic inflammation indicator (hs-CRP) plummeted from 8.14 to 0.91.
My kidney parameters surged back to optimal health, with my eGFR rising from 41 to 118 and serum creatinine normalizing to 0.6, alongside an improved TC/HDL lipid ratio of 3.48 down from 4.7.
Even when occasional personal stresses or dietary variations cause slight fluctuations, I now possess the deep knowledge and self-assurance to manage my body naturally.

Athletic Identity
Following the guidance of FFD's exercise experts and regular videos, I integrated targeted physical activity into my routine.
I regularly perform Nitric Oxide Dumps, resistance band exercises, anti-gravity workouts, and breathing exercises like Anulom-Vilom, Bhramari, and Kapalabhati.
I rotate these exercises weekly and monthly, keeping my body active and strong.

Current Lifestyle & Reflection
Today, my health is in my hands.
I strictly adhere to the dietary principles I learned at FFD, such as consuming Khapli wheat rotis and Basmati brown rice in moderation, while avoiding plain white rice and processed carbs.
If I attend social functions or family events, I know exactly how to manage my diet the following day through fasting and clean eating.

FFD has given me a true rebirth and reinstated my confidence as a single parent. I am deeply grateful to the entire team for giving me hope and proving that reversal is possible.
