DIET I HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING written on 27th April, 2019.


Diet I follow. There were some questions as to what diet I follow to get remarkable health results. 
Let me mention that there cannot be one diet suitable for everyone. I being vegetarian, my diet has to be different from those who take non-veg food. For illustration I am sharing diet I have followed, in last 2 months, with remarkable results for cholesterol reduction and reduction in BP for which I had been taking medicines for years.
My day starts with 1. Green Juice at 6.30 in morning. This is juice made from Karela, Aonla, Chukandar, Lemon and Lauki.
2. One cup of tea, with milk and Gur(Jaggery), not sugar at around 7.30.
3. Food at 8.30. This consists of Dal, 2 Chapatis made of mixed grains and vegetables. I include 2 table spoons of coconut oil, 2 table spoons of flaxseed oil and some ghee.
4. Overnight soaked dry fruits and seasonal fruits.
5. Lunch with some rice and Dal and some vegetables.
6. Absolutely nothing after lunch, till next morning.
This makes me do fast for more than 16 hours every day as my food intake is restricted to 6.30 to 1.30 PM.
This has made my BP normal and dramatic reduction in Cholesterol, fasting sugar and fasting insulin. An incidental beneficial effect has been reduction in weight. Presently my weight is LOWEST in last 30 years.

IS INTERMITTENT FASTING DIFFICULT. NOT AT ALL.

When it is mentioned that all of us should restrict food intake to 8 hours in a day and fast for 16 hours, the impression created is that it must bee painful to be without food for as many 16 hours in a day. Normally that may be the view because most of us are habitual of having minimum three full meals and many a snacks in between every day, which does immense damage to our bodies. With the culture of very late dinner and even midnight snack, even the thought of not having food may look difficult. Not only that, there have been medical advice also that one should not miss meals and the result is tendency to have food virtually non-stop in our waking hours, all seven days in a week. Even I felt strange when this concept of intermittent fasting was mentioned to me about two months ago. But when one is introduced to fat based eating, technically called ketogenic diet, the difficulty totally disappears. What is suggested in the fat based diet is that more than 50 percent of your cal...

Free from Medicine at age of 56 years. First writing on health issues on 2nd October, 2018.

FREE FROM MEDICINE AT AGE OF 56. Having a tough job, requiring long and irregular working hours, I had to start medication for abnormal lipid profile at age of 36 and for high Blood Pressure at 43. It is wonder that at age of 56, I am FREE FROM MEDICINES. This turnaround I credit to my wife, a medical doctor and a course she attended, done by another doctor, Dr. Praveen Chordia, a proponent of Medicine Free Life. They say, it is impossible to get rid of medicines related to life style diseases and you have to live with medicines. But the dietary changes suggested during the course and faithfully implemented by me in last few months, saw me completing 56 years, the other day, absolutely Free from medicines. It makes me believe that ALL OF US can be FREE of Medicines and live a life of health, happiness and contentment.

REMARKABLE TURNAROUND IN HEALTH written on April 21, 2019.

Healthy habits have remarkable results. In two months, I could reduce my Triglycerides from 226 to 123, VLDL from 45,2 to 26 and Fasting Insulin from 10 to 7. Some people may remember that having had Cholesterol Medicines for more than 20 years and BP medicines for about 15 years, in 2018, after making dietary changes, I had left all medicines. Results were very good and I have been totally off medicines for more than one year. In February medical Tests my Triglycerides were  226 and VLDL 45.2. I was told to do Intermittent Fasting and Fat based diet to improve things further. I experimented with these and within 2 months I had dramatic reduction in Trigycerides from 226 to 123 and VLDL from 45.2 to 26, both in normal range and without any medicine. My fasting sugar was 85 and fasting Insulin 7. Of course my BP is normal, without medicines.Thought of sharing with people to confirm that dietary and lifestyle changes can get you outstanding health results and everyone can experimen...
