My name is, Parvathy. { Latha } Kannan from Mumbai. 62 years old. Suffering from Diabetes T2. For past 11 years plus. Insulin with daily dosage of 30ml apart from heavy dosages of medicines were part of my treatment in Mumbai, Chennai Canada & USA. Heard of Practo Diabetes Remission from relations and friends which is purely online based treatment. After inquiry of its credentials, decided to accept the treatment on experimental basis. Cost wasn't that out of reach for any middle class Indians. Initial interaction thru Google meet itself gave enough confidence. After the on boarding essential tests done by them treatment began. Dr HEMA heading the treatment were on daily contact. Literally speaking 6.30am to 10pm. Minutely managing food, medicine, insulin intakes. As assured by Dr Hema & Dr Girija Insulin intake was stopped after 21 days of the start of treatment. Very reassuring. Hb1ac was tested in 2 months. Reduced from 9.6 % at start to 7.5% after 60days. Weight too came down from 67kgs to 60 kgs. Medicines were pruned down by 80%. Feel good factor could be felt. Now it's 3 months from start of treatment. Blood sugar checks at home is very much under control. I am told by the end of 6 months from start of programme I will get to see even the little medicines May not be required. Balanced Diet & Regular Exercise along with these expert panel of Doctors & Diatesions & yoga & exercise teachers have made the game change.I would blindly recommend this team of Doctors from Practo Remission.
