Hello all,
I'm Umashankar Chikkamath an IT professional from Bangalore.
My diabetes story
The year 2014 comprehensive body checkup revealed that I had diabetes. Despite the fact that my parents were afflicted by the condition, this news came as a rather unexpected revelation.
Curiously, none of my siblings have encountered this issue thus far. Looking back, I started to recognize that an unhealthy lifestyle compounded by my IT job could have played a role in its development.
Consequently, I was put on medications to manage my blood sugar levels. I possess a commendable habit of consistently attempting to modify my lifestyle, particularly in regards to my diet and exercise routine.
Despite my efforts, these changes didn't yield significant improvements in lowering my sugar levels. It was during this period that I came to the realization that I had been living under a misconception.
There seemed to be an underlying issue with my lifestyle that needed to be addressed.
How did FFD happen?
I came across Dr. Pramod Tripathi and FFD through a video presented by Dr. B. M. Hegde.
What made me choose FFD?
I never liked being on medicines. I wanted a proper channel to fix things. FFD was offering hope.
The introductory webinar by Dr. Pramod Tripathi added to my confidence and I enrolled in Freedom from Diabetes type 2 diabetes reversal program - HTP immediately.

Reversal story
FFD has undoubtedly unraveled the secret to optimal health, a realization that dawned on me within the initial days of joining the program.
Swiftly, I began to witness positive changes in my well-being, and within a mere month, I received the heartening news of discontinuing my medication.
Notably, my HbA1c levels also underwent a remarkable transformation, dropping from 8.7 to an impressive 6.3—a truly remarkable feat. Shedding 10 kg of weight, bringing me down from 75-76 kg to 65 kg, has been a phenomenal accomplishment.
Furthermore, I'd like to highlight my newfound awareness of the distinctions between healthy and unhealthy weight, knowledge that FFD has generously shared and guided me on.
I've managed to build quality muscle weight and currently maintain a weight of 67-68 kg. With the guidance and encouragement of the FFD team, I am now preparing myself to undergo the Glucose Tolerance Test.
My passion for badminton leads me to engage in the sport five times a week. I'm pleased to report that FFD has significantly improved my frozen shoulder while I await a complete recovery before indulging in swimming.
The transformative group sessions have had a profound impact on me. I now exude a sense of tranquility, enabling me to manage situations more adeptly. FFD has also demystified meditation for me, equipping me with the understanding, technique, and advantages of this practice.
