The program has been so well crafted and guided that anyone can join and follow the regime. Dr Lakshmi is super supportive, knowledgeable and an excellent mentor. Chef Neelima is simply awesome. She will come up with recipes which are easy to make, super delicious and of course healthy that people can fall for the food. The program is very interactive and pays attention to minute details and provides suggestions and options by the coaches as we make with the program. Highly recommended for people who are working to get off medication and improving their health and also for people who want to choose a healthy lifestyle.

~ Feedback from a participant

I would like to sincerely thank Dr Lakshmi and Ms Neelima for conducting SHARAN’s Defeat Diabetes online classes with immense personal energy, passion and a genuine desire to help everyone. If someone had told me 5-6 weeks ago that I will not only learn, but also put into practise, so many different life changing habits in this short span of time, I would have responded with a “No chance!”. However, here I am, eagerly looking forward to my morning exercises and breakfast smoothies, with a completely different take on cooking and eating “clean”, and in general, experiencing a better quality of life than the one from just a month ago. Thanks to this course, I have not only been able to reduce my dependence on medicines, I have also gained the confidence that I can improve my overall well-being by continuing to practise the life-skills that I have learnt in the last few weeks. Dr Lakshmi and Ms Neelima have been very patient and involved in their interactions on the whatsapp group and extremely considerate in providing much needed personalised counselling during the fortnightly one-on-one sessions. I am thankful to both of them for sharing many real-life insights from their own personal journeys, which have brought the course to life and made it a lot more actionable for all participants. I highly recommend this course to everyone (diabetic or otherwise!) to learn (and practise) some very valuable life-skills from inspirational practitioners like Dr Lakshmi and Ms Neelima, who “Walk the Talk” every day!
