Hello all,
I am Dr. Pratibha Narayan a practicing senior Obstetrics and Gynaecologist from Hyderabad.
My diabetes story
My lifestyle is very hectic requiring to me be available 24*7. Plus, I do have a strong family history of diabetes. Being in the peri-menopausal age was a key trigger I feel.
I came to know about my diabetic status in the year 2020 through routine medical check-ups. As a doctor, I was always aware of disease possibilities and used to have regular checks done. I realized I was putting on weight. Even though I was conscious about kidney function, I was soon losing proteins through my urine.
My other sufferings were daytime sleepiness for which I got my sleep study done. It revealed I had obstructive sleep apnea. At one point in time, I even used a C-PAP machine.
My blood pressure problem issue too was detected back in 2013. Seeing the gravity of the situation, I was prescribed Jardiance to take care both of my diabetes and kidneys.
How did I come to know about FFD?
FFD was introduced by my husband. The big need for transformation and the urgent need to take care of metabolic syndrome attracted me to FFD.
Why did I choose FFD?
Initially, I was a bit hesitant about how I could cope with the FFD diet and other things but after making up my mind I immediately enrolled in FFD’s one-year diabetes reversal program - HTP batch 76.

My reversal story
May sugar medicines took only 10-12 days to stop which I think is simply great. My weight loss has been significant about 18 kg but I need to still lose more weight. My exercise capacity has improved immensely. There is an overall feeling of well-being and good health. It is a different kind of confidence when people appreciate you.
I give patients my example telling them nothing is impossible. If a person as busy as me can achieve this much, they too can with FFD's help.
I have the impression that Dr. Pramod Tripathi and FFD diet can also help pregnant ladies suffering from gestational diabetes as the program can be easily followed and is doable without causing significant sugar fluctuations.
Key quotes
"I feel quite ecstatic and happy. Wish FFD would have happened earlier."
