Question by Pankaj on Nov 12, 2024Hindi

Health

I've been a 35-year-old male diabetic for the last 2 years. I joined Sugarfit program for diabetes reversal at that time my weight was 73 kg and my height is about 6 feet. I had followed their medication and diet instructions which reduced my HBA1C from 8.5 to 7 but at the same time my weight was reduced to 63 in about 4-5 months initially they were saying it water loss and other things. As my weight is not increasing even after work out and protein intake. medicine precribedwere istamet 50/100- breakfast and dinner, oxramet10/500-lunch and I m on following sequencing salad-protien -fibre-carb-fire and grainless dinner, still my sugar is not under control and HBA1C is 8 in these month I m not sure whether they are treating my properly or not now my concern is on both weight gain and controlling blood glucose and sugarfit is not concern about my health not responding they do not have custumercare no . Please guide me what to do .

Ans: Pankaj Ji,
You are young and that age, aggressive and effective control of blood sugar is important. You are on nearly full dose of 3 anti-diabetic medications. and apparently doing a lot of physical activity, yet your blood sugar is not under control.

I would advise that please either switch to insulin or consult a physician to get medications restructured.

Regarding weight reduction, if it is fat loss, you need not to worry. However, if it is muscle loss, then, you probably need a little more attention. Some of the muscle strengthening exercises would help.

Question by nishtam - Feb 22, 2025Hindi

Career

Hello sir this is Nishat , I passed my 12th in the year 2023 with a good percentage but however I couldn’t see it for chemistry exam. So obviously I failed in that subject so I decided to again reappear for that exam and in 2024 I gave betterment exam from my state board in the subject biology and chemistry. However I scored far better in biology than last time but (Chemistry) I don’t know maybe it’s it’s because of the issues that we have with our board. I couldn’t score good marks so even I had decided to give (Chemistry) separately and so in 2024. I again set for (Chemistry) exam under nios I and I scored 80 so now the thing is that I’ll be having two mark sheet so while applying in need I cannot possibly select the code 2 because although I already have the state board certificate but the NIOS certificate is not yet out and it will be out by end of the March sir can I possibly select the code one that is appearing or will it create problems while counselling or is there any other option please help me out sir , I’m very desperate like I have prepared for neey for the last two years and I don’t want to put my hard work into vain. Please Sir help me out

Ans: Hello Nishtam
Please select code 1 without any fear. Focus more on your study. But considering your fear and anxiety with the chemistry subject, it is recommended that you choose other options than NEET. This time you appear without any fear.
