How My Health Coach Helped Me
Mr. Ashok’s health coach, Prerna, played a crucial role in his health improvement. Prerna worked closely with him to make sustainable changes to his diet and lifestyle. She designed a diet plan that managed his blood sugar levels while also considering his CKD dietary restrictions. ‘Prerna introduced me to a balanced diet that was both diabetes-friendly and kidney-safe,’ he says. The plan included low-glycemic foods, lean proteins, and plenty of vegetables. Prerna also encouraged Mr. Ashok to incorporate regular exercise into his routine. ‘Starting with simple walks and light strength training, I gradually built up my stamina,’ he shares.
Additionally, she helped him adopt healthier habits, such as regular hydration, stress management techniques, and better sleep hygiene. ‘Prerna’s guidance on lifestyle changes has been life-changing,’ he remarks. ‘The small, consistent changes made a huge difference.’
How My Doctors Helped Me
Mr. Ashok’s medical team was instrumental in managing his complex health issues. His nephrologist closely monitored his CKD progression, adjusting medications and advising on dietary restrictions to slow the disease’s advancement. ‘My nephrologist’s careful monitoring helped manage my CKD and prevent further complications,’ he notes. Cardiologists provided comprehensive care for his hypertension, prescribing medications and recommending lifestyle changes to lower his blood pressure.
‘The cardiologist’s guidance helped bring my blood pressure under control,’ he shares. Regular check-ups and tests were crucial in tracking his progress and adjusting treatments as needed. The multidisciplinary approach ensured that all aspects of his health were addressed, with each specialist providing coordinated care. ‘The collaboration between my doctors made all the difference in managing my multiple conditions,’ he remarks.
