Most people believe diabetes is just a problem of high blood sugar. But the truth is deeper diabetes is not the disease itself; it’s a symptom of an underlying imbalance in your body.
When you treat only the sugar levels, you manage the numbers but not the cause. To truly reverse diabetes, we must understand why the body lost its balance in the first place.
At Peak Wellness Gurugram, under the guidance of Dr. Priti Nanda Sibal, we use Functional Medicine a science based, personalized approach that identifies the root cause of diabetes and helps the body heal naturally from within.
Understanding What Really Happens in Diabetes
In Type 2 Diabetes, the body still produces insulin but the cells stop responding to it effectively. This condition is called insulin resistance.
As a result, glucose stays in the bloodstream instead of being used for energy, leading to fatigue, weight gain, and inflammation. Over time, this imbalance affects every system from your gut and liver to your hormones and brain.
While conventional medicine focuses on lowering blood sugar with tablets or insulin, Functional Medicine focuses on restoring your body’s ability to use insulin efficiently. That’s the difference between managing diabetes and reversing it.
The Hidden Root Causes of Diabetes
Functional Medicine looks at diabetes as a result of multiple underlying dysfunctions not just poor diet or genetics. Here are the major root causes identified through detailed testing and analysis at Peak Wellness Gurugram:
1. Chronic Inflammation
Low-grade inflammation silently damages cells and insulin receptors, making it harder for the body to process glucose. The main triggers include processed foods, excessive sugar, trans fats, and toxins.
A diet rich in antioxidants, fiber, and omega-3 fatty acids helps reduce inflammation and restore insulin sensitivity.
2. Nutrient Deficiencies
Your body needs essential minerals like magnesium, zinc, chromium, and vitamin D to manage blood sugar effectively. These nutrients are often depleted due to stress, poor diet, or medications.
At Peak Wellness, OligoScan testing quickly identifies mineral and heavy metal imbalances, allowing Dr. Priti Nanda to design a precise, customized replenishment plan.
3. Gut Imbalance (Dysbiosis)
Your gut health directly impacts your metabolism. An unhealthy gut can cause inflammation, affect hormone balance, and disrupt blood sugar control.
Through Functional Nutrition and probiotic therapy, we rebuild a healthy gut microbiome reducing inflammation, improving digestion, and supporting better glucose regulation.
4. Toxin Overload
Toxins from pesticides, plastics, and heavy metals interfere with how insulin works in the body. They also burden the liver your primary detox organ and slow metabolism.
Our Functional Detox Programs use nutrition, IV nutrient therapy, and liver support to help remove these toxins safely and naturally.
5. Hormonal and Stress Imbalance
Chronic stress increases the hormone cortisol, which raises blood sugar and promotes fat storage. Poor sleep and hormonal shifts especially during menopause or thyroid dysfunction further disrupt insulin response.
Functional Medicine restores hormonal balance through stress reduction, restorative sleep, and natural adaptogens, helping stabilize both mood and metabolism.
6. Sedentary Lifestyle
Lack of physical activity reduces insulin sensitivity. Regular movement even walking, yoga, or light strength training dramatically improves glucose utilization and overall vitality.
The Functional Medicine Approach at Peak Wellness
Functional Medicine doesn’t offer a one size fits all plan. Every person’s diabetes journey is unique, and so is their healing process.
At Peak Wellness Gurugram, each patient undergoes a detailed Functional Health Assessment, which may include:
Metabolic and hormone profiling
Gut microbiome evaluation
Liver detox capacity testing
Vitamin, mineral, and heavy metal scan (OligoScan)
Inflammation and oxidative stress markers
Lifestyle, diet, and stress analysis
This holistic assessment helps uncover what’s blocking your body’s natural balance whether it’s poor gut health, toxins, or chronic inflammation and guides your personalized reversal plan.
The Peak Wellness Diabetes Reversal Program
Dr. Priti Nanda’s Diabetes Reversal Program focuses on healing your metabolism from the inside out. Here’s what it typically includes:
1. Functional Nutrition
A customized meal plan based on whole, low glycemic foods that stabilize blood sugar and reduce inflammation. Emphasis is on fresh vegetables, lean protein, healthy fats, fiber, and complex carbs, while cutting out processed and refined foods.
2. IV Nutrient Therapy
Intravenous infusions deliver vital nutrients like Magnesium, Vitamin C, Chromium, Glutathione, and B12 directly to your cells for faster absorption and better energy.
3. Ozone & Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)
Oxygen-based therapies enhance blood circulation, repair damaged tissues, and support mitochondrial energy essential for patients with fatigue, neuropathy, or poor wound healing.
4. Gut & Liver Detoxification
Personalized detox programs support the liver and gut, helping clear toxins and improve insulin sensitivity naturally.
5. Stress and Lifestyle Coaching
Emotional health is key to physical health. With functional lifestyle guidance, you learn to manage stress, improve sleep, and build daily movement habits that sustain your progress.
Real Transformations: Healing from the Root
Patients following the Peak Wellness Diabetes Reversal Program experience visible improvements within 3 to 6 months, including:
Lower fasting and post-meal glucose levels
Reduced HbA1c (average blood sugar levels)
Natural weight loss and higher energy
Improved digestion and mental clarity
Reduced dependence on medications (under medical supervision)
These results are sustainable because they come from deep metabolic healing, not short-term symptom control.
Why This Approach Works
Traditional medicine focuses on managing blood sugar. Functional Medicine focuses on rebalancing the body.
When inflammation is reduced, nutrients are restored, the gut is healed, and toxins are removed insulin starts working naturally again. That’s when true reversal begins.
At Peak Wellness Gurugram, every plan is evidence-based, medically supervised, and designed to restore long-term health not just temporary numbers.
