Whether you are 24 or 42, lifestyle diseases do not spare you!
Do you know how Senthil spent his first month salary?
Eating at his favourite restaurants. Almost daily!
Senthil has never been a health conscious person and could hardly count if he had any healthy habits.
Few years into the job, he started feeling tired by afternoon. Many days, he would reach home in the evening and simply doze off.
And then he was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and prediabetes, at a young age of 24! That was a real shocker.
The medical opinion was to get started with medicines, probably for rest of his life. But since he had seen many people experiencing long term side effects, he didn't want to opt for it. He started looking for alternate options, almost frantically one might add.
"Fortunately, through a friend of mine, I got in touch with Wellness Quotient community and a wellness coach", says Senthil. Upon receiving initial guidance, he was sceptical. But then he didn't have many choices, so he decided to give it a try.
With constant guidance from the coach, Senthil could easily adapt to the changes necessary. Soon he was very pleased with her commitment towards his health.
"In a few weeks, I started seeing improvement in my energy levels and immunity", recalls Senthil. When he did his lab tests 3 months down the line, to his surprise, he had made great progress.
Now his HbA1c and TSH values have moved towards optimal levels, that too, without using any medication.
Senthil got really fascinated with this approach towards health. He says, "I started learning more about it and sharing about it as well. That's my way of showing gratitude to people who have helped me."
When asked about what he would like to say to the young generation, this is what he has to say, "Living healthy is simpler than you think. Go for it!"
