Client Testimonies

Before meeting Shashi, I struggled with diabetes for years. Despite taking medications, my blood sugar levels remained high, and I felt tired and sluggish all the time. But Shashi gave me hope. He shared his own success story of reversing his diabetes through lifestyle changes, and offered guidance and support every step of the way. Thanks to his expert knowledge and unwavering encouragement, I was able to make meaningful changes to my diet and exercise routine. And the results speak for themselves - I have now been able to get off my diabetes medications, my blood sugar levels are stable, and I have more energy and vitality than I've had in years. I cannot thank Shashi enough for his dedication and passion for helping others achieve optimal health

In June 2023, my dad was at 102 kg with high diabetes, creatinine at 1.4, high blood pressure and was consuming tons of medicines at the age of 60. I was worried about his health and talked to a friend and he recommended me to consult Shashikant Iyengar Sir.

Shashikant Sir took detailed reports of my dad's health, his daily routine and food consumed on daily basis. Within a week he tailored a low carb high protein diet and kept daily updates of my dad's sugar levels and blood pressure levels. Slow and steadily results started to show up. Fasting Sugar levels dropped from 175 to 95-100. Post lunch dropped from 275 to 115. Blood pressure is now in normal range. Creatinine was the big issue for me as my dad has only 1 kidney (by birth). It also dropped from 1.4 to 1.26 and weight loss of 13kgs was the by product of healthy eating suggested by Shashikant Sir. Because of these improvements, meds were also lowered by significant levels by family doctor. All these improvements was made in a span of just 6 months. Our future goal is to lower creatinine levels to below 1.0 and I'm 100% sure that Sir will make this happen. He is just amazing!

My dad's condition and meds would have worsen if Sir wouldn't take the perfect care at the right time. My dad is now fit, has a glow on his face with improved energy levels and better sleep. Thank you so much Shashikant Sir for making this happen, this could have never been possible without you!

Yagnesh Gohil - Son of Ravindra Gohil

I am a 40+ woman who has struggled to keep my weight down since I turned 35. I followed Shashi on X and decided to sign up for his metabolic health and nutrition coaching in March 2024. He gave me clear guidelines on what food I can consume and how to consistently eat low carb and high-protein meals consistently. He even found easy recipes and provided a list of supplements to accelerate my health goals. As of September 2024, I have lost 14 lbs and reduced my waist and hips by 7 inches. These changes have helped with better sleep, less anxiety and an overall improved quality of life.

I did not have high expectations when I started the program but the results have blown me away. Shashi has taught me how to eat well and still be healthy and within my target weight range.

As a serious diabetic (Diabetes Type2), I was nearing 90 Kg (nearly 21 Kg overweight) and injecting myself with Insulin thrice a day (around 30 units each) when Mr. Iyengar first spoke to me on Zoom as his patient. Being a vegetarian himself, he faced no difficulties in suggesting a ‘tasty’ menu (its importance for a diet can never be overestimated) and has guided me for more than a year now. He got me out of Insulin in less than a week and also cut down on other medications soon. I am currently taking just one pair of pills, and watching my diet a bit carefully.

Where am I now? First, the weight: I have lost 20Kg since I began (lost almost 15 in less than six months); I was more energetic than I was for more than a decade, a change that occurred in the first three months already. In fact, I do not get tired easily and nor do I feel the need for an afternoon nap that I required for nearly 15 years. I can do intellectual work for longer hours without feeling exhausted and, for the first time in two decades or more, I am have taken to doing physical exercises. My sugar levels are seriously down, enough at least for my doctor (a specialist in diabetes) to suggest that a yearly visit suffices and that the three-month visits are no longer required. Even now, after 15 months under the care of Mr. Iyengar, it is still difficult for me to believe that a good diet (as directed by an experienced dietician) plays such an important and causal role in controlling (or preventing) diabetes.

Of course, a doctor-patient interaction is very crucial in a therapeutic relationship. Here, Mr. Iyengar excels: not only is he friendly, humorous, and kind but also knowledgeable, very-well informed and extremely sensitive to individual quirks and idiosyncrasies. It is not easy to convince intellectuals easily (as a trained philosopher, I am rather skeptical of tall claims) but Mr. Iyengar persuaded me with very little exertion and with almost no compulsion. I am truly happy I met him, followed his suggestions faithfully, and brought my diabetes under control so easily. There is only one advice I have: trust him, follow the guidelines, and you will rediscover that there is still a great life even after you have diabetes!

Thanks Mr. Iyengar. “May the force be with you!” 

I thought of resigning from my job because of tiredness due to type 2 diabetes. But after  Shashi sir's guidance on diet without any medicine, my HBA1C level came down from 8.3 to 6. Now I feel enthusiastic, and even after retirement also I can continue working somewhere.. I am feeling happy always, no worries, no mood swings, all this is because Shashi sir 🙏

Transformative Experience working with Mr. Shashikant Iyengar:

I'm thrilled to share my experience working with my metabolic coach, Mr. Shashikant Iyengar. It would be an understatement to say that he completely transformed my approach to nutrition and health. As a vegetarian, middle aged woman from India, I inherit a lot of predisposed genetic health traits from my parents. I am pre-diabetic and although I avoid processed food and sugary drinks, my diet wasn't perfect and consisted of a lot of starchy food. A recent experience with my mother's health motivated me to be proactive about my own well being and I got in touch with Shashikant earlier this year. Being a vegetarian, I was initially skeptical about how I would adopt a low carb diet without sacrificing my dietary preferences. But Shashikant made a personalized plan for me, shared a lot of vegetarian recipes, a sample diet chart and a lot of recommendations for a variety of brands I could get for high quality protein and low carb keto food choices that made my journey a whole lot easier and sustainable.

What I really liked about Shashikant's approach is that he took the time to understand my health history, family history, my food preferences, etc. before coming up with a plan. Being a vegetarian himself, he guided me with a lot of recommendations that he adopts in his keto diet. But at the same time, I liked that he is not biased and is committed to providing well informed, objective guidance which also involves consuming meat if one is comfortable doing so.

It's been a little over 6 months now and I already feel great, energetic and my health has improved significantly, thanks to Shashikant's coaching and personalized plan.

I will greatly recommend Shashikant to anyone who wants to adopt a healthier lifestyle.

Thanks,

It has been a pleasure working with you over the last 6 months. I’m certain to carry on with the lifestyle change you have suggested for me which has proven results through test results. 

When I started I was definitely worried about my health as I was in the diabetic range (Hba1c- 8). One of the diabeticians in India suggested I go on meds immediately for the rest of my life which I wasn’t intending to do. Hence I was concerned about my health and didn’t know what to do when I approached you.

Within only 6 months I came down to pre diabetic range with the help of your guidance on lifestyle changes. My lipid profile has showed great improvements as well. Thanks a lot for guiding me through each step of the process. Also, I’m super happy to say that without the help of any medicines I was able to achieve this. I attribute this to your guidance completely.

This is just to sum up my experience of last one year joint working with you to address my problem of panic disorder and BP. This problem started in 2018 lasting for 6 years .

Background : At 46 yr, stress and possibly diet led to high BP and recurring panic disorders causing nightmares .

Several diagonis led to only more or alternate tablets by different doctors but none addressed to resolve it at root .

Determined to work to exit from tabs, I worked on own using several online / offline health coach advised actions including changing diets , only plant food , fasting , exercise etc but nothing could resolve the issue on sustainable basis and so my attempts to exit tabs (cipralex 10mg) and Olmatec20mg only lasted for few weeks but resurrected .

My last one year working with you bringing low carb / high protein diet brought a big relief on several aspects on sustainable basis - gut issue resolved , high energy , exited from cipralex tab fully , BP fully brought under control , weight in control on sustainable basis .

Pros: No doubt big relief on all fronts making life simple with few food choices ( am a vegetarian)

Cons : We do miss all tasty foods but I managed to occasionally enjoy everything but conscious of body needs to get back to core diet . Tough enemies from internal but need to fight out to stay healthy .

You have been very supportive throughout gently pushing back with right supplements . Awesome service and more power to you to spread this positivity as I anticipate more and more people are projected to go through this cycle requiring your service

Managing Diabetes and Having a Healthy Pregnancy - All Thanks to Shashi Iyengar

Before I met Shashi Anna, I was struggling with both my weight and managing my diabetes. Traditional diets left me feeling sluggish and hungry, and the idea of getting pregnant with diabetes felt incredibly daunting. Then I discovered Sashi Anna's program centered around a Veg Low Carb High Protein diet.

It was a complete game-changer.  His approach was not just about weight loss, but about achieving overall health and hormonal balance. The Veg Low Carb High Protein plan was easy to follow, delicious, and kept me feeling energized throughout the day. My blood sugar levels started to stabilize within weeks, and for the first time in years, I felt truly in control of my diabetes.

But the most incredible outcome was getting pregnant and having a healthy baby.  Anna’s guidance focused on creating a risk-free, healthy pregnancy environment. With his guidance, I was able to achieve a healthy weight before conception and maintain a balanced diet throughout my pregnancy. The birth of my beautiful baby was a dream come true, and I owe so much of it to our Health Champion Shashi’s expertise.

If you're struggling with diabetes, weight management, or even just looking to optimize your health for pregnancy,  I highly recommend Low Carb High Protein program. It's not just a diet, it's a lifestyle change that empowers you to take control of your health and achieve your dreams.

Myself Samrat Dutta, and my wife Kumari Puja from West Bengal. My wife has been suffering from entire body pain with anxiety, depression and extreme headaches for last five years. I have consulted many doctors and psychiatrist for my wife's health condition but couldn't help to improve my wife's condition. Even, no doctors could identify the disease or what kind of disease my wife suffered from. And my wife consumed plenty of medicine which doctors prescribed and she faced different side effects also. In a pathetic situation, we decided to stop all kind of medicine. At that time,  I was researching natural remedies and one day, I saw a interview of Shashikant sir with Yohan regarding health. And then after doing my short research.... I have interest on Shashikant sir and consulted. At the beginning, Shashikant sir prescribed whole body report ( blood report) and after analysing blood report.... Shashikant sir prescribed a food diet chart. And for the first time, I came to know that my wife suffering from an autoimmune disease called Rheumatoid Arthritis, with nutrition deficiencies. And we continue the first three month consultation and totally guided by Shashikant sir. My wife for the first time told me she felt better and improving. After three month treatment... we planned to conceive and we succeeded. And now, we have a baby boy....both are healthy....I personally believe the 3 months nutrition protocol of Shashikant sir actually helped us. Thank you Shashikant sir 🙏🙏

Mrs Padmavathi was suffering from Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)

This eye disorder is a progressive one that leads to partial or total vision loss.

It’s documented that a high glycemic diet & use of refined omega-6 seed oils may be a causative factor for AMD

On investigation, we found that her HbA1c was 6.7, fasting Insulin 21 and PP insulin 138.

She was put on a low-carb ketogenic vegetarian diet.

After 3 months, her labs were as follows. Haemoglobin A1c was 5.6 & Fasting insulin was 1.

Her BP also which was at 188/100, came to 130/80

Her ophthalmologist told her that her eye is stable and that she need not come for follow-up every month. Instead, come for an annual check-up.

She is now more energetic and walks 5 km a day

I struggled with obesity and poor health for over a decade despite gym workouts and following strict diets based on the food pyramid. Calorie restrictions left me lethargic, and despite my efforts, I couldn't lose weight. Turning to Ayurveda for five years to manage type 2 diabetes, my thyroid levels remained high, and my HbA1c hovered around 6.

Desperate for change, I discovered Dr. Tro and started applying his tips on fasting and reducing carbs, which led to weight loss I hadn’t seen in two decades. Still, I needed guidance specific to India’s low-carb scene.

In 2023, I discovered the Metabolic Health Conference. Watching Shashi's interview with Dr. Roshani Sanghani, I knew I had found the direction I needed. The conference, led by Shashi, Anup, Ira, and Arun, featured international experts like Dr. Tro and Dr. David Unwin, offering insights that answered my lingering questions.

After the conference, Shashi reached out, reviewed my labs, and spent nearly an hour on a Zoom call discussing every detail. His guidance was unlike any doctor visit I’d experienced. He personalized my plan down to handling afternoon hunger and constipation, and he tackled my heavy metal toxicity from Ayurvedic medicines using fasting protocols.

Within three months, I lost 9 kilos, reduced my hip size, and my heavy metals dropped by 50%. I had to buy new clothes because my old ones were too loose. Weekly Zoom check-ins with Shashi were invaluable—he consistently adjusted my diet to address my unique health challenges, proving to be the epitome of a health coach. His constant support and motivation kept me on track.

Now, after 9.5 months, I’ve lost double digits in weight and waist size, and my heavy metal levels have significantly dropped. I had to shop for clothes twice, and Shashi even advised me on what to buy, knowing I would continue losing sizes.

This transformation wouldn’t have been possible without:

• Social Media Awareness: 20-30 years ago, my only option would have been to trust the best local doctor.

• Metabolic Health Conference: This event was a turning point, featuring experts whose insights were crucial.

• Success Stories: Hearing from others who overcame similar challenges gave me hope and direction.

I'm grateful for Shashi’s guidance and support, which have been life-changing. For anyone lost in the sea of health advice, know that the right support can make all the difference.

During my pregnancy, I experienced unexpected spikes in my blood sugar levels and was suspected to have gestational diabetes. Naturally, it brought a lot of worry, especially with the added responsibility of nurturing a healthy baby.

That's when I was introduced to Shashikant Iyengar. His approach to nutrition was simple, balanced, and truly focused on both my well-being and that of the baby. He helped me manage my sugar levels effectively without overwhelming me with complex recipes or a stressful routine. His constant guidance, calm support, and the clarity he brought to the process made a big difference.

Thanks to his structured plan, I was able to focus on a healthy pregnancy journey with confidence, keeping my sugar levels under control while ensuring I received the right nourishment. I’m happy to share that I delivered a perfectly healthy baby weighing 3.4 kg (7.5 lbs). I’m truly grateful for his expertise and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking to manage metabolic health with care and ease during Pregnancy.
