LIFE BEFORE ATMANTAN

A 34-year-old lady guest (a lecturer by profession) had been suffering from PCOD (along with endometriosis) for the last 10-12 years. With complaints of painful bleeding, irregular cycles and stress, she had been to her gynaecologist several times in the last decade and taken multiple medicines, but nothing had seemed to help her. She had now chosen to visit Atmantan hoping to work on her health.

HEALING JOURNEY AT ATMANTAN

Upon her arrival, she had a detailed Doctor consultation. She also shared that her gynaecologist had assured her that after the birth of her first child, her symptoms would reduce, but post labour she had gained a lot of weight and the symptoms had only become worse. As per her, the menstrual flow use to last for about 7-10 days and the cycle would reoccur every 26 days. The pain however on the bleeding days would be a 9 (with 10 being the maximum on the pain scale)!
Naturally, her quality of life was hugely impacted due to this. She had to take 3-4 days off every month during her menstrual cycle, which felt very stressful. At times she also felt insecure about losing her job.

Because she had heard highly of the disease management programmes at Atmantan from a friend, she was glad that she was finally here for a 14 days retreat. After her detailed consultation, she was put on the Master Cleanse retreat.
Her initial body composition analysis showed that her weight was 85 kg, which included a Fat mass of 38 kg, a Muscle mass of 42.2 kg and a water percentage of 42% which was lower than average. (normal range for women varies between 45-60%). Her visceral fat was also high at 14 (Normal range is 1-12). Her blood reports showed that her HbA1c levels were high as well at 7.1 (normal range should be below 5.7) and her Estradiol levels were at 600pg/ml (Normal levels for Estradiol are 30 to 400 pg/mL in premenopausal women).

On this cleansing and detoxification retreat, her treatments included Colonics pelvic massages with therapeutic oils, Chi Nei Tsang to clear the blockages from the system, and abdomen packs to mention a few. She was also prescribed acupuncture sessions for pain reduction and hormonal stability.

For fitness, she was participating in low-intensity activities such as yoga, and aqua sessions along with meditation and counselling sessions.

As for her diet, she was on a gluten-free, lactose-free plan with anti-inflammatory foods. She was also started on seed cycling. This diet was supplemented with Naturals‘ nutraceuticals of Easy Flow (to reduce cramps and improve the menstrual cycle), Dia-Solve (to improve insulin sensitivity and better manage sugar levels) and Fat Blazer (to improve fat metabolism).

At the end of 2 weeks, she had lost 4.4 kgs (down from 85 to 80.6 kgs)! This included a pure Fat loss of 4.8 kgs and a Muscle gain of 0.4 kgs! Visceral fat levels had also dropped by 2 points from 14 to 12 and normalised! Even her HbA1c levels were now at 6.7 (from the initial 7.1) and the Estradiol levels had also improved to 480 pg/mL from 600 pg/mL (Normal levels for Estradiol are 30 to 400 pg/mL in premenopausal women)! These were some phenomenal results!

Please Note: These results may vary depending upon body type and pre-conditions.

As she stayed in touch with the Doctors even after departure, the follow-up showed her improving month on month; after 2 months, her PCOD symptoms had significantly reduced. She informed the Doctor that her pain intensity had also come down to 4 (from the previous 9/10!). Even the bleeding had become lighter (with fewer clot formations) and only lasted 4 days (instead of the previous 7-10 days). All in all, much to her relief she had noticed positive changes wherein her cycle seemed to have become more normal and predictable!
She no longer dreads that time of the month and continues to stay motivated as she religiously follows the prescribed diet and continues with the improved lifestyle (as far as possible).

Case Study of a 59 year old mother

LIFE BEFORE ATMANTAN

A 59 year old female guest with low morale came in with severe complaints of weight gain. With a history of having suffered from Appendicitis surgery and post her two C-Section deliveries, she had put on some weight. However a year after both her children were born, she was diagnosed with Hyperthyroidism (24 years ago) and to make things worse, she was now since a year also suffering from type 2 Diabetes. She was suffering from mental stress which was only worsening her health parameters. She was on medications for both these along with blood pressure medication. 

She was hoping Atmantan would help her deal with her many health concerns along with addressing the newly escalated sugar readings! 

HEALING JOURNEY AT ATMANTAN

After a detailed health consultation and diagnostic study, the guest was prescribed the Master Cleanse Retreat for 10 days that would help reset her gut and address all her health issues.

A personalised treatment regimen was built for the guest by the consulting Doctor and this consisted of cleansing therapies, to improve the blood circulation along with it assisting in fat mobilisation. She was made to take up daily Yoga along with Kriyas to enhance her movement and especially meditation was planned for her as stress is a major causative agent for her health issues.

She was prescribed a Low-Carb-High-Fat diet that would aid weight loss while also addressing diabetes. She was also given an anti-inflammatory diet to help naturally reduce blood sugar and address ongoing infection markers. Her daily shots included Diabetic, Heart Health and Ashwagandha concoctions.

Case Study on Insulin Resistance

LIFE BEFORE ATMANTAN

A 20-year-old young girl came to Atmantan with complaints of weight gain over the last 6 months, darkened discolouration at the back of the neck, inner thighs and under arms; she also had complaints of cystic acne, and thickened white discharge (with a history of a vaginal yeast infection).

No investigations had been conducted for her and she had simply been treated with antibiotics and topical steroids for her skin. After the antibiotic course, she had even started developing severe nausea and the acne on her skin had increased instead of decreasing.

As a conscious youngster, she was desperately looking for a solution to her weight and pigmentation.

On admission to Atmantan,  there was an in-depth examination of her medical history and symptoms along with diagnostics. The Doctor thus realised that she was insulin resistant and that her infection was of a fungal origin! This made her an insulin case study. She was put on the Master Cleanse Retreat for 14 Nights.

She was immediately started on an Atmantan Naturals Supplementation of replenishment with a higher dose of Omega 3 fatty acids along with Diasolve (for Insulin efficiency), Pregut (Prebiotics for gut health) and natural anti-fungal medications.

Case study on Hypothyroidism and associated weight gain

LIFE BEFORE ATMANTAN

A 53-year-old lady suffering from complaints of weight gain, sluggishness and thyroid dysfunction, along with early morning stiffness and pain in all the joints, decided to come to Atmantan. These were clearly all signs of systemic inflammation in her bio-system!

She was prescribed therapeutic fasting to start with a detox as per Naturopathy principles for the initial few days post which she was on an anti-inflammatory meal plan that had anti-oxidants, natural probiotics, moderate carbohydrates and higher fat. This diet was adequately also supplemented with Atmantan Naturals’ Omega 3 fatty acids (for assisting in reducing systemic inflammation), Digestive Enzymes (to improve digestion and fight gut inflammation) and Thyrocare (to manage thyroid dysfunction and to activate the conversion of thyroid hormones). 

Since her fasting phase, she was taking various detoxifying Naturopathic treatments along with Ayurvedic weight loss therapies that also reduced inflammation in the body. 

She was also given personalised fitness sessions, and specific yoga practices to activate her thyroid functions along with stress management sessions.

Her blood pressure was also streamlined and because of this improved lifestyle, all thanks to a normalised TSH, she had also lost almost 4 kgs of weight (from 80.3 kgs to 76.5 kgs) which also made this a brilliant weight loss case study. Most of this weight loss consisted of a fat loss of almost 3 kgs (from 38.7 kgs to 35.8 kgs) along with a drop of 2 points in her visceral fat (from 15 to 13)!

Case Study of a 45-year-old With Diabetes & Morbid Obesity

LIFE BEFORE ATMANTAN…

This lady guest was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and had been living with this condition for over 7 years. She was as a result of this suffering from morbid obesity. While being fed and constantly putting on weight (despite following several diet plans), she decided to come to Atmantan looking for a solution.

When this 45-year-old checked into Atmantan, her reports showed that her Fasting Sugar level was 150 mg/dL (normal should be 99 mg/dL) and PP sugar was 200 mg/dL (normal should be less than 140 mg/dL). She was also on a daily 1000 mg (metabolic inhibitor class of medicine used when suffering from Diabetes) allopathic tablet.

HEALING JOURNEY AT ATMANTAN…

At Atmantan she was put on an integrated Doctor-guided programme right away in an attempt to reverse her diabetic condition and provide her with the much-needed weight loss. Her programme was designed as a 16-week one, which would be a combination retreat of Weight Balance, Master Cleanse and Natural Healing. 

After running diagnostics, it was realised that while she weighed 96 kgs and had a visceral fat reading of 19, she was suffering from insulin resistance! The treatment protocol consisted of treating the root cause while addressing the high visceral fat, insulin resistance and ongoing inflammation in her body. The daily schedule included personal workouts, Yoga, low-resistance training and physiotherapy for better alignment. She did all this and also had Ayurvedic and detoxifying therapies recommended to her which also included acupuncture. 

Her prescribed diet was a high-protein, low-carb one which also included anti-inflammatory and Diabetic shots. Along with all this, she was also put on Atmantan Naturals’ herbal supplements of Dia Solve (For improved insulin sensitivity) Fat Blazer (For improved metabolism), and Anti-Ox3 (As it arrests & reverses oxidative damage at the cellular level).

HER TRANSFORMATION | MASTER CLEANSE | 16 WEEKS

Please Note: These results may vary depending upon body type and pre-conditions.

She had a miraculous transformation after 16 weeks… she had dropped 33 kgs of weight (She was now down to 63 kgs from 96 kgs), and this included a pure Fat loss of 25 kgs! Even her visceral fat had dropped 10 points! (Her reading had now gone to 9 from 19, and she had now achieved the desirable range for Visceral fat).

Along with all these transformations, she had now managed to completely reverse her insulin resistance and had completely stopped her past medication! In fact, at departure, her fasting sugar had dropped to 100 mg/dL (from 150 mg/dL) and her post-meal sugar had come down to 138 mg/dL (from 200 mg/ dL). She had achieved almost-normal readings!

She left Atmantan with a far greater understanding of her condition; She was determined to take this education for self-management forward in her days at home (she also carried back prescribed diet charts) and continue with the Naturals supplementation that treats the root cause of the disease and not just the symptom. This was truly an inspiring diabetes case study!
