Hello all,
I'm Fareesa Sarwar Lateef, an 80-year-old housewife from Bangalore.
My diabetes story
Long back, in 1995, I came across symptoms like excess urination and wetness. The test disclosed I had diabetes. My maternal uncle was diabetic. There was some personal stress too. My other sufferings were weakness, giddiness, and blurring of eyesight.
I was taking high doses of diabetic medicines, but still, my HbA1c was increasing. Due to my age, the doctor would not recommend starting insulin. I needed to do something.
How did FFD happen?
I came to know about FFD through an advertisement on the mobile app.
Why did I choose FFD?
I wanted improvement in my health. 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
Joining FFD has undoubtedly been the best decision of my life. I got more than expected. My weight loss has been 9 kg. My diabetes medicines have almost reduced to half. The extreme weakness I had earlier is also reduced.
Before joining FFD, My HbA1c was around 9.6. After the first 3 months in the program, it has reduced to 6.9 and is stable.
There has been tremendous improvement in my creatinine level and I am very thankful to the FFD team for guiding me on this.
Even after the course is over, I am sticking to diet more or less and doing light exercises and yoga on nominal medication. The best part is I can do all my work by myself.
My HbA1c has raised a bit so I have fixed an appointment with my doctor. I am sure I will get it back down with the FFD doctor's guidance and support.
