Howdy, haven’t posted much but have followed a few topics on T-Nation for a while now.
Short history: Long-time off-and-on recreational lifter diagnosed with Type II Diabetes in January of 2010. Basically it was caused by a crappy diet, not enough of the right exercise and too much of the typical modern chronic stress we all have, so in my case this was truly a lifestyle disease although genetics probably played a role also. Dropped 60 lbs to my lowest weight 3 months ago, but am now 50 lbs down from the highest weight (hopefully gained - or gained back - 10 lbs of muscle since being at my lowest weight).
I’ve stagnated at my present body fat level, and quit gaining “quality” weight back, so I wanted to avoid the shotgun approach and get some guidance on diet and supps and therefore thought I’d give BioSignature a shot.
Even though I went into the BioSignature session pretty skeptical, I came out super impressed with the guys knowledge AND how the results seemed to correlate very well with my health history. I should note that I purposefully did not share any of my health history or other observations or opinions with the practitioner prior to the measurements. I’m now a believer.
I only paid for an hour of the guys time (still a great investment) so with the other dietary and supplement topics we discussed, we didn’t get the time to go over the results in detail. I’d much appreciate if knowledgeable guys here (maybe even Thib?) would help me fully interpret my BioSignature results. Here they are:
