1.Introduction
A.G. Manoj Kumar, a 59-year-old from Hyderabad, struggled with diabetes and hypertension for nearly two decades. Despite multiple treatments and increasing insulin dosages, his blood sugar levels remained high. Seeking an alternative approach, he turned to naturopathy and diet therapy at SLNS Hospital. A combination of yoga, hydrotherapy, and tailored nutrition led to significant improvements. His insulin and medication were gradually tapered off, and he had a great improvement from diabetes and hypertension. This case highlights the power of integrative healthcare in managing chronic conditions.
2.Patient Information
Name: A.G. Manoj kumar
Gender : Male
Age:59yrs
For nearly two decades, A.G. Manoj Kumar, a 59-year-old from Hyderabad, lived under the shadow of diabetes and hypertension. Diagnosed in 2005, he started with insulin therapy and hypertension medication, hoping for stability. But as the years passed, his dosages increased while his health showed little improvement. Frustrated by the lack of progress, he sought help at various diabetic centers, yet his condition remained unchanged.
Then came a turning point—an 8-day stay at SLNS Hospital, where he embraced naturopathy, yoga, hydrotherapy, and diet therapy. Slowly, the reliance on insulin and medications lessened, and his body responded. With each passing day, his energy levels soared, his weight dropped, and his vitals stabilized. By the end of his treatment, something extraordinary happened, his medications were mostly tapered off.
Manoj Kumar’s story is a testament to the power of integrative healthcare, proving that with the right approach, even long-standing chronic conditions can be reversed.
3.Medication History
| S. No. | Medication | After Treatment dose | Mechanism of Action |
| 1 | VILDADER MET 50mg/1000mg (1-0-1) | Tapered | Enhances beta cells and promote glucose dependent insulin secretion |
| 2 | VOGLIBOZ M3 500 mg (1-0-1) | Tapered | Inhibition of alpha glucosidase and it delays the complex carbohydrates absorbtion |
| 3 | ROZOTIN 5 mg (0-1-0) | Tapered | HMG COA reductase which lowers the cholesterol level |
| 4 | TELMAVAS 20mg (1-0-0) | Tapered | Angiotensin 2 receptor blocker ,which relaxes the blood vessels and reduces blood pressure |
| 5 | HUMALOG 75/25 1(20 units )-0-1( 20 units ) | Tapered | Insulin inhibits lipolysis and proteolysis and enhance protein synthesis |
After undergoing naturopathic treatment, A.G. Manoj Kumar’s medication regimen was gradually tapered. His dosage of VILDADER MET 50mg/1000mg (1-0-1), which enhances beta cells and promotes glucose-dependent insulin secretion, was tapered. Similarly, VOGLIBOZ M3 500mg (1-0-1), which inhibits alpha-glucosidase and delays carbohydrate absorption, was also tapered. His cholesterol-lowering medication, ROZOTIN 5mg (0-1-0), which works by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, was tapered as well. Additionally, TELMAVAS 20mg (1-0-0), an angiotensin II receptor blocker that relaxes blood vessels to lower blood pressure, was gradually tapered. Most significantly, his HUMALOG 75/25 insulin (1(20 units)-0-1(20 units)), which inhibits lipolysis and proteolysis while enhancing protein synthesis, was tapered off completely. This progressive reduction in medication highlights the effectiveness of lifestyle modifications and naturopathic interventions in restoring his health.
4.Naturopathic And Lifestyle Interventions
Lifestyle Modifications: Regular physical activity, stress management techniques, and a balanced sleep routine were introduced.
Dietary Adjustments: A diabetic-friendly diet focusing on low glycemic index foods, high fiber intake, and reduced refined sugars was designed to improve blood glucose control.
Medication Adjustment: Conventional medications, including insulin and oral agents, were gradually tapered as his blood glucose levels improved.
Regular Monitoring: Blood glucose, HbA1c levels, and other biomarkers were closely monitored to assess the effectiveness of the treatment plan.
5. Results and Follow Up
A.G. Manoj kumar health improved significantly over the course of 8 DAYS. Below is a table summarizing his diagnostic biomarkers before and after treatment:
| S.No | Biomarker | Before Treatment | After Treatment |
| 1 | Homa IR | 6.2 | 2.47 |
| 2 | Blood Ketone | 3.18 | 0.64 |
| 3 | Triglycerides | 241 | 125 |
| 4 | VLDL | 48.23 | 24.94 |
| 5 | Homocysteine | 42.29 | 28.5 |
Before treatment, A.G. Manoj kumar biomarker levels indicated metabolic imbalances. HOMA-IR, a marker of insulin resistance, was elevated at 6.2, suggesting impaired glucose metabolism, but it significantly improved to 2.47 after treatment. Blood ketone levels, initially high at 3.18, dropped to 0.64, reflecting better energy utilization and metabolic stability. Triglyceride levels, which were at an unhealthy 241, reduced to 125, indicating improved lipid metabolism. Similarly, VLDL, a key indicator of cardiovascular risk, decreased from 48.23 to 24.94. Homocysteine, a biomarker associated with cardiovascular and neurological health, showed a notable decline from 42.29 to 28.5, signifying reduced systemic inflammation and improved vascular function. These improvements suggest the effectiveness of the treatment in regulating metabolic and cardiovascular health.
6.Discussion
The case of A.G. Manoj Kumar highlights the effectiveness of integrating naturopathic treatments in managing chronic conditions like diabetes and hypertension. Despite years of insulin therapy and medication adjustments at multiple diabetic centers, his glucose levels remained uncontrolled, necessitating an alternative approach. Upon seeking treatment at SLNS Hospital, a holistic regimen involving yoga, walking, body therapies, and a structured diet plan was implemented. Over the course of his eight-day stay, notable improvements were observed, including weight reduction from 75.70 kg to 73.35 kg and a drop in blood pressure from 122/84 mmHg to 120/70 mmHg. Gradual tapering of medications, including insulin and antihypertensives. The integration of lifestyle modifications and naturopathic therapies not only improved his metabolic parameters but also enhanced his overall well-being, energy levels, and quality of life.
7.Conclusion
Manoj Kumar’s case highlights the effectiveness of a holistic approach in managing chronic conditions like diabetes and hypertension. Despite years of insulin dependency and medication adjustments without significant improvement, the integration of naturopathy, dietary modifications, and structured therapies at SLNS Hospital led to a remarkable transformation. Over just eight days, his insulin and medication dosages were successfully tapered, eventually eliminating the need for them altogether. Additionally, improvements in blood pressure, weight, and overall energy levels further validate the impact of lifestyle-based interventions. This case reinforces the potential of combining conventional and natural therapies to achieve long-term health benefits.
