RE: Dr. Rao Konduru’s Publications:
       Reversing Obesity
       Reversing Sleep Apnea
       Reversing Insomnia

        Dr. Rao Konduru, PhD is a patient of mine who has suffered from chronic diabetes for most of his life; He also suffered from uncontrollable obesity, sleep apnea and chronic insomnia for the past 3 to 4 years. He has managed to reverse all of these conditions by taking non-pharmacological and science-based natural measures with great success. He has created 3 how-to user guides/books with regard to how he achieved this, and I recommend these books for anyone suffering from these conditions.

Sincerely,

FOREWORD

Losing weight is an art. But if you are not artistic about it, you may end up regaining all the weight you have lost, even if you are workout savvy or a fitness guru. Many people lose weight working hard in the gym, but regain all the pounds they have burned within a few months just because of the lack of self-discipline.

If you are accustomed to eating out in restaurants, no matter how hard you workout in the gym, the fat in your belly increases unstoppably. Many of the restaurant foods are made from processed foods and refined foods. Processed foods are manufactured by adding preservatives, artificial colors and flavors including salt (sodium), MSG (monosodium glutamate), hydrogenated oils, fillers, sugars and sweeteners for a longer shelf life in the supermarkets. Refined foods, mostly carbohydrates could trigger your food cravings, similar to the urge drug addicts experience. Carbohydrates spike blood sugar levels demanding increased insulin production from pancreas, which could in turn result in type 2 diabetes. A typical example is the white flour or all purpose white flour made from grains (mostly wheat, rice or both). The altered texture and flavor make the body crave more of it. That is why your body wants more and more processed foods and refined foods and manufactures fat in the belly.

JUNK FOODS are strategically manufactured using processed foods and refined foods, adding large quantities of sugar, salt, oil, fat and several other chemicals including artificial colors and flavors to boost our cravings, so we buy more and eat more. Junk foods sabotage our weight-loss efforts. By consuming whole foods and at the same time by eliminating processed foods and refined foods from your diet, you can very easily transform your body’s functionality within a few days, and even feel good about your health in general. You can see results within days, and feel a lot better.  The cravings for processed foods and refined foods can be abolished by tasting whole foods in every meal you consume throughout the day. Consuming whole foods is an easy task, but avoiding processed foods and refined foods is the most difficult task for many people. If you are wise enough, you could develop a meal plan by restricting your diet to whole foods only, and you could be a winner in the weight loss plan.

After losing 40 pounds of body weight and 12 inches around the waist, Dr. RK reversed his obstructive sleep apnea successfully. It is almost a year after he did so, and until now he has not regained a pound back. As a matter of fact, he has even lost another 5 pounds during the past year. His strategy is: “Just consume the whole foods only and strictly avoid the processed foods and refined foods by exercising high self-discipline.” He has carefully explained his method in this book “Reversing Obesity.”

 Overnight Oximetry Test Results Without CPAP by Independent Respiratory Services (IRS), Burnaby, BC, Canada

 First Diagnosed With Moderate Sleep Apnea (Desaturation Index=22.7 Events/hr).

 Overnight Oximetry Test Results Without CPAP by Mainland Sleep Diagnostics Ltd, Burnaby, BC, Canada

 Overnight Oximetry Test Results Without CPAP by Clinical Sleep Solutions, Burnaby, BC, Canada

 
  P.S.: CPAP Discontinued for 1 to 2 Weeks Prior to All Overnight Oximetry Tests.

  Sleep Apnea is diagnosed by monitoring the oxygen desaturation index.

Desaturation Index

Assessment

            Sample Calculation of BMI: My Height = 1.68 m; BMI = Weight (Kg) / Height (m) ² = 86 / 1.68 ² =  30.5 Kg/m ² = Obese

Synopsis
As shown in the aforementioned table, when I was first diagnosed with the obstructive sleep apnea, my overnight pulse oximtetry test done on 07-Feb-2015 showed that my desaturation index was 22 events/hr. When I repeated the test on 07-Apr-2015, my desaturation index went up to 28 events/hr, which means I would soon be diagnosed with the severe sleep apnea (if the desaturation index is ≥ 30 events/hr, that indicates severe sleep apnea). With the severe sleep apnea, I knew that I could suffocate myself with the blocked airway, and could die in the sleep. I therefore took action and awakened the giant within myself. My extensive reading and research suggested me that "I need to lose weight fast." I am then committed to lose weight fast, and created my own weight-loss diet by incorporating the daily exercise. It was an uphill battle, but finally I have accomplished my weight loss goal after making drastic changes to my diet.

After losing 40 pounds of weight and 12 inches around the waist, naturally without ever using drugs or supplements, my body mass index (BMI) dropped from 30.5 (obese) to 24.1 (perfectly normal). The Oxygen Desaturation Index (ODI) from an overnight pulse oximetry test dropped from a high-risk 28 events/hr to a stunning 0.6 event/hr in 22 months, and reversed moderate sleep apnea. The CPAP therapy, being the best treatment available currently, controls sleep apnea and keeps the SpO2 level (percentage saturation of blood oxygen level) normal only during its usage. It is important to note that the CPAP does not cure sleep apnea. But weight loss cures and reverses obstructive sleep apnea.

However I must watch my weight every day and prevent it from regaining by exercising caution, self-discipline and high willpower. As long as I maintain my body weight normal, my obstructive sleep apnea should remain reversed.
