"Rediscovering Wellness: How a Health Setback Led to Promedha's Creation"

Overcoming Adversity: My Path to Wellness and Founding Promedha

I was strong and healthy in my 30s - yes, slightly overweight at 86 kg for my 5’10” frame - but fit enough to climb five stories without losing my breath. One misguided piece of advice from my company doctor, however, changed my life forever.

He warned me that my weight could lead to heart problems in the future and casually suggested that I start eating oats—without specifying how much or how to balance my diet. At that time, oats were being heavily promoted as a miracle food for weight loss, so I jumped on the trend. I started eating oats for lunch and sometimes even dinner, thinking I was making a healthy choice.

Initially, I was thrilled. The weight was dropping, and I looked leaner. But over time, I was losing more than just weight—I was losing essential vitamins, minerals, and proteins. Eventually, my health deteriorated. I lost 26 kg, became extremely weak, and simple tasks like climbing five steps felt impossible.

Desperate for answers, I visited multiple corporate hospitals, spending lakhs on diagnostics and consultations—without any real solutions. Finally, a casual visit to my family doctor, a homeopathy practitioner, provided some relief. Her advice and medicines helped me regain some strength, but my recovery was far from complete.

Determined to restore my health, I continued my search for holistic healing. That’s when I discovered the power of Ayurveda and natural nutrition. Ayurveda worked wonders, and I recovered nearly 90%. This was 11 years ago, and it completely changed my life.

Unfortunately, during my health struggles, my Hyderabad-based IT company—after profiting immensely from my work—showed me the door. However, by God’s grace, I had no financial burdens like EMIs or loans, thanks to my prior planning as an NRI until 2014. My family’s unwavering support also played a crucial role in my journey to recovery.

But I didn’t stop there. My experience sparked a relentless curiosity to find natural, holistic solutions for health and wellness. I spent years researching Ayurvedic medicines, herbal remedies, and dietary changes. Eventually, I found myself in a position where I could bring this knowledge to life.
