Hello all,

I'm S. Ramasubramanian, a Certified Financial Planner, from Pune.

My diabetes story


My diabetes journey is quite intriguing. I stumbled upon my diabetes diagnosis by chance. When I was 34 years old, I underwent a medical examination as part of an insurance policy requirement, and that's when I received the unexpected news.

It was particularly concerning since both my parents had diabetes.

Initially, I didn't experience many symptoms, and things seemed relatively fine. However, as time passed, I began to suffer from infections, persistent fatigue, and a noticeable lack of energy.

These issues were quite disheartening, especially considering my relatively young age.

Over time, my medication regimen continued to grow. There came a point when my blood sugar levels skyrocketed and became uncontrollable. My doctor recommended insulin therapy, but I was reluctant to go down that path.

I was on several medications, including Glimepiride (1mg), Pioz 30, Metsmall 500, Kombiglyze 500, Optisulin, and more.

How was FFD introduced?


Many of my customers were a part of FFD and I kept listening about FFD through them.

What made me choose FFD?


I never liked being on medicines. With FFD, I saw a hope of going free of medicines. 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


I began adhering to all the recommendations provided by FFD. Surprisingly, within the first 10 days of joining the program, I was completely off tablets.

This was an incredible feeling, especially considering I had been advised to start insulin therapy, which I had initially refused. My HbA1c which was 10 before has improved down to 5.3 now.

My weight loss journey with FFD has also been nothing short of amazing. I started at 86 kg before joining FFD, and in just a little over two months, I managed to bring it down to 66 kg. Currently, my weight is a healthy 67.5 kg.

The icing on the cake is that I successfully passed the GTT test in October 2022, which fills me with pride.

FFD has equipped me with the knowledge and tools to take care of my health comprehensively. I now understand how to address various aspects of my well-being effectively.

For instance, if my weight starts to creep up, I implement fasting to bring it back in check. I maintain a disciplined fitness routine, dedicating 5 days a week to the gym, with 1.5 hours of exercise each day.

Additionally, I cycle to the office daily and even complete a minimum of 12 km of running every Saturday morning. Sundays are reserved for rest.
