Now, the entire #Indianmedia is worried about why #TwishaSharma spent 3 hours in the beauty parlor? Imagine the debates on this.

Sad to see the likes of @BDUTT following for this style of journalism of confrontation & viral clips without proper investigation

What a travesty! #Indianmedia have literally become like a pack of hounds. There is zero investigation, just finding people to harass. Watched #TwishaSharma coverage no clue what they are fighting for.

@shashiiyengar @NutritionNetwrk Congratulations! That’s a great achievement

I’m excited to announce that I’ll be speaking at the World Nutrition Summit 2026 in Cape Town! This is not just another conference; it’s where we challenge the status quo, question outdated guidelines, and have the conversations that truly matter for the future of health. If you’re serious about nutrition, metabolic health, and real science… You need to be in the room. Link for tickets: In-Person : qkt.io/aFJTQB Virtual : qkt.io/vx9Sq6 Join me and be part of the conversation. Let’s change the future of health, together. @ProfTimNoakes

🚨 Just Released: 10 Years of T2D Remission! 🚨 It is now part of the scientific record. The study documents medication-free remission over a decade, achieved using a low-carbohydrate, lacto-ovo vegetarian diet, with systematic long-term safety evaluation. To our knowledge, this is the first such study conducted globally. What makes this work unique is not just remission, but rigour and duration. For most of this period (approximately 70-75%), I followed a ketogenic diet; during the remaining time, I followed a low-carbohydrate diet with carbohydrate intake below 100 g/day. This is a prospective N-of-1 longitudinal study, followed for a full decade, with repeated assessments across multiple domains: •Glycaemic control (HbA1c, fasting glucose, CGM) 🩸 •Insulin dynamics 🧬 •Advanced lipids including ApoB and Lipoprotein(a) •Inflammatory markers 🔥 •Liver and renal function (including cystatin-C) •Serial coronary artery calcium scans 🫀 •CT coronary angiography 🫀 •Carotid imaging (CIMT) •Bone mineral density (DEXA) 🦴 •Detailed ophthalmic imaging 👁️ Starting Hba1c was 7.2%. FBS 152 & PPBS 253 mg/dl. Achieved remission in the 4th month with Hba1c of 5.2% Over 10 years: •HbA1c, FBS & PPBS remained consistently in the non-diabetic range •Average Hba1c was 5 in 10 years. (4.7 to 5.3) •Average LDL and ApoB remained higher than recommended, but stable •No microvascular complications •No macrovascular disease •No deterioration in renal, skeletal, or ophthalmic health This was achieved without diabetes medication. Importantly, this is an Indian study. The dietary pattern was: •Low carbohydrate •Lacto-ovo vegetarian •Culturally adapted •Sustained for 10 years in a South Asian individual with the MONW (Metabolically Obese Normal Weight) phenotype This directly addresses a major gap in the literature: the absence of long-term, real-world safety data for low-carbohydrate approaches in South Asian, predominantly vegetarian populations. It demonstrates that: •Long-term remission is possible •Sustainability over a decade is possible •Comprehensive safety monitoring is feasible •Replication at larger scale is testable The intent of this work is not to prescribe, but to inform, challenge existing assumptions, and invite replication. As an N-of-1 longitudinal study, these findings are not generalizable by design. They are hypothesis-generating and intended to inform larger, prospective cohorts. India carries one of the highest diabetes burdens globally. Evidence addressing sustainability must emerge from within this context. This study is now part of the scientific record. Big thanks to Dr Jasmeet Phd @jasmeet481, whose relentless effort and scientific rigour made this study possible. She invested enormous time and care in shaping the manuscript and strengthening it to publication standard. Grateful to my guru, Anup Singh, who introduced me to low-carb nutrition in 2015 at the time of my Type 2 diabetes diagnosis. His guidance laid the foundation for my 10-year low-carb journey. Thank you to Arun Kumar who helped me when I was newly diagnosed. Big Thanks to the 3 doctors who were part of my 10 years journey & are the co-authors also.

@maneet Thanks

@SavvyPriya Congratulations !

Sometimes life surprises you & this happened. Showing my #art in #Goa. Sold a painting on the first day. Drop by if you are in Goa. There are other artists too

@mayurgarani Thanks 🙏

@SavvyPriya Good luck 🤞🍀👍

Jan 2026 ended the year with a lot of socializing & starting the year with holidays. It feels good after a few years of no holidays. #lowcarb is healing in many ways

Good to see @ndtv giving top coverage to this spat. When more such stories go viral, people will begin to respect journalists

Refreshing to see a journalist asking tough questions and holding politicians accountable #journalism

Wishing all a very happy new year 2026
