No more PCOD!

Mandakini is a very busy professional working in the banking industry.

The result was that her weight was gradually increasing. She used to feel tired and experience mood swings, and her periods became irregular.

During a visit to her gynaecologist, she was diagnosed with PCOD and was suggested hormonal tablets.

Reluctant to start with medication, she approached a WQ coach for help.

During her lifestyle correction, she learned about many aspects of a healthy lifestyle which were not limited to diet and exercise.

"I was surprised to know how simple lifestyle corrections and focusing on nutrition can drastically improve my health", says Mandakini.

Eventually, she lost 14 kg of weight and her energy levels improved.

Her facial acne got cleared, her hair fall reduced completely, her back pain and acidity issues were gone and within the first two months of starting the program, her period got regularized.

Taking a holistic approach towards my health!

When Pooja started going to office every day of the week, she realized that she used to get tired very soon!

On top of that, her digestion was very poor and she experienced bloating too.

She knew there were some deficiencies in her body and when she got her blood work done, she found out that she was right. Pooja was deficient in vitamin B12 and iron!

She wanted to address it the right way and started taking guidance from a WQ Coach.

Firstly, she decided to take plant-based, organically sourced supplementation because she knew the ill effects of synthetic supplements.

Secondly, she understood that supplementation without correct lifestyle changes will not let her go very far.

"So I decided to make small changes like carrying tiffin from home instead of buying meals in office, change my cookware to retain nutrition density in my food etc.", says Pooja.

Within a short time, her blood work values improved. Along with that, she also lost 2 inches on her waistline!

"I'm still a work in progress but I'm super happy with the progress I've made till now!", says a happy Pooja. "Bloating is gone and energy levels and my skin have improved a lot".

5 YEARS OF HORMONAL MEDICINES GONE IN 2.5 MONTHS!

Shameera had PCOD for the past 5 years and had to take hormonal pills to get her cycles.

Being a Pharma student, she studied extensively about medicines and their potential side effects. She was worried that she was depending on hormonal pills every month.

Post hormonal medicines, her cycles were so painful that she had to take leave from college.

"I used to anxiously ask my friends if they followed any diet or exercise regime which helped them get their cycles naturally, when they said they are not doing anything specific for this, I used to wonder if they can get it naturally, why not me?? This unanswered question was quite stressful”, recalls Shameera.

She used to check on the internet about what kind of diets and exercises can help reverse PCOD. But after following it for a few days, she would give up very easily as she did not have the support system to encourage her.

“Finally, I got my answers through a friend who had benefited from the WQ community”, she says. “He referred me to the coaches who helped him”.

They worked with Shameera on different pillars of health like diet, exercise and natural supplements which helped her strengthen her core.

This holistic program helped her to get a solution to her problem within 2-1/2 months, her cycles regularised naturally without any hormonal pills and she had lost 8 kg weight.

“Now, I’m getting my cycles regularly without hormonal medicines for the past 5 months, no more cramps and stomach pains. My mom is very happy that I no longer depend on medicines, no more hospital visits or scans”, says a happy Shameera!

She is thankful to her coaches for their patience with her and the WQ community for all the support through their exercise and meditation sessions.

God's gift, by God's grace and WQ's support!

Vineeta was a little scared during her second pregnancy.

'Will I be able to deliver a healthy baby?"

"Will my body be able to go through the needs of nurturing a baby during my pregnancy?"

"Will it be difficult to lose weight after my pregnancy?"

These were some of the questions on her mind.

Fortunately, she met with a WQ coach who educated her on a healthy lifestyle including proper nutrition and its impact on the mom and baby during pregnancy and post-pregnancy period.

Also, they discussed the importance of the right kind of physical exercise and activities to support a healthy pregnancy.

"My whole family wanted a normal delivery", recalls Vineeta, "which these days is not commonly heard of!"

But Vineeta had a normal delivery and the baby had a healthy weight of 3.3 kg! The doctor was also quite impressed.

"All credit goes to the proper guidance given by my health coach", she says gratefully.

Making your hormones your friend!
WQ_ImageTestimonials_HariniT.png

For most women, that time of the month is not easy. But for some, it is dreadful!

In Harini's case, it has been so since she was 10 years of age. Irregular, heavy and very painful.

This led to her becoming anemic too. She would get tired very easily and was susceptible to frequent cough and cold. "I could realise these hormonal imbalances were affecting me", she says. "After all, they are all interlinked."

Even though Harini wasn't overweight, she had developed a double chin. This made her camera shy. She was low on confidence and would usually avoid getting clicked.

It's around this time she got introduced to Wellness Quotient community and started working with one of their wellness coaches. She was suggested certain lifestyle changes - including her diet and workout regime.

"I lost 5 kgs. Out of it, 4 kgs was fat loss", she recalls. It made a huge difference for Harini. She felt more confident and her body more energetic and lighter.

"My periods are regular now", she says with a sigh of relief. "It is such a blessing. And the best part is that I got rid of my hormonal medication!"

(Wellness Quotient proudly presents one of their WQ Champion Harini's journey as yet another hope for many out there who want to achieve wellness but are uncertain if they can too!)

The Tale of a Cancer Survivor

Chanchal is residing in Kolkata with her family. Her mother was diagnosed as a cancer patient back in 2009 undergoing chemotherapy & radiotherapy for a year. The radiation turned her mother very weak which eventually lead to many other health issues such as TB, Paralysis, Diabetics & BP. Chanchal & her family were frantically looking out to help her & thus eventually she was exposed to the Wellness Quotient community through one of her friends. The natural health supplements were the next step in her mother’s recovery.

As of today, Chanchal’s mom is free from cancer!

Chanchal recalls the time when her mother was unable to talk to anyone for even 5 minutes without coughing & says, how today, even in the winter months she is consuming curd & cucumber. She also recalls 6 months back, when her mother was suffering from mouth paralysis & the doctors came up with a report that it would take her 3 months to recover but Chanchal was thrilled when her mother was free from paralysis within 12 hours as she was on a course of natural supplementation. Chanchal says the time when her mother was having kidney stone due to the side effects of radiation & other medicines, her family chose to not go with any medicines for it as her mother was liking the natural supplements big time. 

Health check done 2 months later left everyone astonished as the fatty liver size reduced and she was free from kidney stones. She is so thankful to the Wellness Quotient Community for the guidance.

Chanchal was earlier not aware of any such lifestyle changes & supplements which could help her mother, but when she gained knowledge on the difference between supplements & medicines, she could understand how it can help in building up her mother’s immunity. 

Chanchal recalls how due to lack of immunity her mother was admitted in Apollo Hospitals for a span of 6 months due to the Tuberculosis. She observed that the supplements actually helped her mother to build her strength from inside which she had lost due to the radiation therapy.  

Chanchal’s mother is now happy, healthy & she had also lost 20 kgs of weight, down from 86kg to 66kg now. Chanchal’s mom has not visited any doctor ever since.

She also recalls that, few months back her mother was suffering from partial mouth paralysis & the doctors came up with a report that it would take her 3 months to recover. Being a teacher Chanchal’s mother was used to speaking a lot throughout the day and this report left her devastated. By now, Chanchal had faith and that night Chanchal kept telling her mother, she is strong & she will be fine in a day and the magic did happen that night, the next morning when her mother woke up she was speaking again without any explicit sign of paralysis.

But then, Chanchal believes it was not an overnight magic, rather it is the continuous intake of health supplements & lifestyle changes that her mother underwent, has kept her in a good stead. Chanchal is very happy & feels blessed that she could help her mother out of all the health challenges.

She believes, with God, all things are possible !!!

Making Pregnancy a Cakewalk

Ramya used to work in IT for 6+ years and now she has taken a break due to childbirth.

Pregnancy was a big horror story for her primarily because of her colleagues’ unpleasant experiences. Some of them developed thyroid during pregnancy, someone had developed a back pain while few others have put on extra weight and could never get back to their pre-pregnancy state. 

However, Ramya wanted to remain in a good shape without having to compromise on her health during pregnancy. When she discussed her concern with a friend, she introduced Ramya to a Wellness Coach. The first thing the coach mentioned was “Well, pregnancy is not a disease, rather its the most beautiful stage of any woman’s life. You might never get such a period back in your life and so you should thoroughly enjoy it”. 

Subsequently, Ramya started understanding different aspects of good health such as diet, exercise, role of supplements to fill the gap in nutrients etc. As a result of proactive counseling from her coach, Ramya’s pregnancy was very smooth. She did not suffer from any morning sickness and other ailments and even danced in an event in her 8th month of pregnancy. She conceived at 29 years of age, had a normal delivery and her baby was a healthy boy of 3.17 kgs at birth.

She believes, this was possible only because there was someone to help her all through her journey. Post pregnancy, she could feed her child without any formula milk for 1 year and after she weaned her child, in a matter of just 6 months, she lost 12 kgs of weight and thus could achieve her pre-pregnancy weight. 

Ramya advises that the best way to achieve good health is to analyze our diet, figure out the gaps which are there in our nutrition & make necessary lifestyle changes. Then find a health coach who can help us to achieve all of these with their strong domain knowledge and can handhold us to a better state of health.

Joy of Motherhood through Good Nutrition

Rama Jawahar has worked in the IT industry for almost 16 years and is now taken a break from her career.

Within 1 year of marriage, she had a tubal pregnancy. In the ensuing 5 years, she had undergone many fertility treatments – which were invasive, painful and very expensive as well. They had spent almost 3 lakhs in her treatment without any positive yield.

Through her husband, she subsequently got connected to the WQ team. 

In the guidance of a Wellness Coach, who recommended specific lifestyle changes and a course of natural supplementation, she magically conceived. There came a situation, that she might have to deliver pre-term – but eventually she delivered a healthy baby full term. She nursed her for 2 complete years. Even her 2nd child was conceived completely naturally. 

There was a time in her life, where she had given up hope of ever having children – to the point where she stopped going to family functions to avoid embarrassing questions and also used to read blogs where people shared experience of the positive consequences of not having children !

But, that seems too long in the past. Today, she feels completely blessed to have 2 beautiful and healthy children and gives all the credit to the WQ community and her coach for the joyful & uplifting experience.

PCOD Solved..

Myself Nirosha, I was diagnosed with PCOD (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome). I have been suffering from PCOD from past 3 years and gained weight drastically.

I have visited multiple hospitals and used many medications to treat it. I was also advised to do blood tests and even scans regularly over these past 3 years. Inspite of all these efforts i didn't see any results.

In the month of Jan 2019, I got in touch with Wellness Quotient team. Their support and guidance was of tremendous help. Within 7 months I could see significant results in controlling my hormonal imbalance & my weight. I adapted myself to the the right food & nutrition, a good mindset, physical activity and most of all with the help of natural supplements i was able to lead a healthy lifestyle.

Thanks to WQ, I started putting conscious efforts to correct my condition and lost 6kgs of FAT within 3 months. Becoming victorious over the symptoms of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome was not easy, but now i have overcome PCOD symptoms to live the life i deserve.
