My Diabetes Story

In 2020, I noticed unusual symptoms—constant dry mouth, a stubborn wound on my leg, and frequent urination. Concerned, I decided to get my sugar levels tested, only to be diagnosed with diabetes. With a family history of the condition, I knew the challenges ahead.

At first, I was devastated but I didn’t want to accept that I had to rely on medicines for the rest of my life.

Additionally, I have been suffering from BP since 2014.

How did FFD happen and why did I choose it?


Scrolling through Facebook one day, I came across Dr. Pramod Tripathi from Freedom from Diabetes (FFD).
Intrigued by his message of reversing diabetes naturally, I started watching his YouTube videos. Inspired by his belief that diabetes medicines could be eliminated through the right lifestyle changes, I made a decision—I would join FFD and work towards complete freedom from medication.

I enrolled in the annual program HTP.

Reversal Story

I joined FFD in March 2024, determined to follow the program diligently. My HbA1c levels at the time were 7.2, and I was taking medication regularly. I embraced the structured approach of FFD, Including plant-based nutrition, Exercise, and Inner Transformation Sessions.

Within just 15 days, I was off diabetes medication! My sugar levels were under control, and I felt more energetic than ever before. By the time I rechecked my HbA1c, it had dropped to 6.2.
One of the most remarkable aspects of my journey was my weight loss. Starting at 84 kg, I worked way down to 65 kg. I feel lighter, more energetic, and full of life.  My husband jokes that I’m growing younger!


Despite always being active — Walking, Doing Yoga, and even going to the Gym—My weight fluctuated. It wasn’t until I adopted the FFD lifestyle that I saw sustainable results.

Beyond physical transformation, I discovered something even more powerful—Mental and Emotional healing. I attended meditation and journaling sessions, which helped me let go of past grievances. After meditation, I realized I needed to forgive and move on. That moment changed me completely.

I am proud to share that I cleared the GTT in 2025 and removed my Diabetes Tag.
My remarkable journey inspired my family as well. My son, though not diabetic, Joined FFD to maintain his fitness.

I remember my doctor in Kolkata always dismissed my requests to stop medication. He told me I would have to take medicines for 70 years! But I made a promise to myself that one day, I would be free- and now I am.

Thanks to the FFD program and all the experts for their incredible support and guidance.
