He started making some dietary changes and also started following a medication routine. But since his work requires him to be on his toes most of the time, it became very difficult for him to manage diabetes. After that, he also consulted his family doctor.
In 2015, diabetes also started affecting his eyesight, and he got it operated on. Then he realised that it is a serious condition and he needed to get himself an alternate diabetes treatment.
“I came to know about BeatO in 2019. My son had read about the BeatO glucometer and he also informed me about the BeatO Diabetes Care Program. I got myself enrolled in April 2023.”
As a part of the program, he was required to make some changes with regards to his diet and lifestyle. He says “After joining the program, I have replaced whole wheat flour with jowar flour. I also eat daliya everyday to keep my sugar levels under control. Since I like pranayam as a form of exercise, I asked my coach to build my exercise routine around that. I follow all the guidelines given by my coach and I have successfully lost 5 kgs because of it. Now I feel motivated to lose more weight.“
With the diet shared by my health coach, I have been able to bring my cravings under control and I have also stopped eating unhealthy foods. It is because of these little changes that I have successfully controlled diabetes. I regularly buy multigrain flour from the BeatO App.
“After joining the care program, my stress levels have gone down after bringing my sugar levels under control. I have gotten multiple surgeries in the past and my health had suffered greatly because of it. It is only with BeatO that I have been able to become a more confident version of myself.”
