my story

What more could be the life of an Indian housewife who is looking constantly into her family needs while neglecting her own health?

I was thinking I was doing all the right things, taking care of my husband who was a senior manager in software industry, my son getting ready for his board exams, looking into needs of my aging in-laws and parents. I did not realise that i was neglecting my own self in terms of health which lead to severe pains and fatigue. This was later diagonised as fibromyalgia.

Many rounds of doctor's visit lead to heavy dosage of medications and physiotherapy. This included prescribed dosage of steroid based medications. The side effects due to all medications were high but I did not see much relief from pain which lasted for 16 years.

16 long years of painful life led me to depression and i could not see an end to this entire thing through medicines. That is when along with my husband I started desperately looking out for some alternative therapies.

My desperate search lead me to learning about antioxidants and how natural supplementation of antioxidant rich food can protect our body from harmful effects of oxidation.

With proper guided program, within a fortnight I felt better. As months passed, I found myself more energetic with overall improvement in pain.Since this is chronic, lifelong disease, I know rebuilding takes time.

This is when i took up health and nutrition close to heart and thought of sharing the benefits to those who have a need and I joined hands with wellness quotient community.

There is no better time than now to start a healthy lifestyle..I believe in eating right and also help people adapt to a better lifestyle by creating awareness in preventive health.
