Lots of data.We cover:🧪 How to interpret and act on blood markers🔁 Supplement cycles, blood work feedback & knowing when to stop🧬 Hormones, hypothyroidism, and adjusting thyroid meds over time🧠 SHBG, testosterone & why 'high' isn’t always better☀️ The underestimated power of light, sleep, and rhythm🧊 Would he freeze himself?
