Stop doing the activity that caused your Achilles Injury. Rest your ankle as much as you can and consider using crutches. If you don't rest your ankle, your Achilles Injury won't heal.
Don't use a stretching device or do stretching excercises for your Achilles. Stretching puts a strain on your Achilles Tendon, which can damage it further and make your injury worse. Muscles stretch, tendons don't.
Don't let your Achilles Injury persist for months. If you want to heal quickly and completely, you need to use King Brand's® ColdCure® and BFST® Achilles Wraps. This is the same treatment that professional athletes use. For professional athletes, time is critical and a proactive treatment plan is required. Use our ColdCure® Achilles Wrap to relieve the pain and swelling in your Achilles. Use our BFST® Achilles Wrap to stimulate blood flow and heal your Achilles Injury.
Along with ColdCure® and BFST® treatments, try to stay off your ankle as much as possible. Use crutches if you need to. Also avoid using a night splint or other any stretching device, as they will only make your condition worse and cause you more pain.
Do this and your Achilles Injury can truly heal - Finally.
You don't have to wait. You can heal much more quickly with the right treatment. For an Achilles Injury, blood flow is the most critical element in rapid recovery. Blood Flow Stimulation Therapy (BFST®) gives your injured Achilles the blood flow it needs to heal quickly and completely.
Blood flow brings oxygen and nutrient-rich blood to the injured area - a requirement for the body to heal itself. Unfortunately, an injured Achilles at rest often has restricted blood flow, which in turn limits the body's ability to heal. Physical activity will promote blood flow but all too often it also results in small but frequent re-injury, which extends your healing time and greatly increases the amount of scar tissue that develops. With a King Brand® BFST® Achilles Wrap, blood flow can be stimulated in the injured area while you are at rest. With improved blood flow and without physical activity and the risk of re-injury, you can recover from your Achilles Injury at a surprisingly rapid rate.
BFST® stimulates blood flow through the Achilles while you are at rest. This is very important because while at rest, an unaided and inflamed Achilles can otherwise have seriously impeded blood flow. It is the oxygen and nutrient-rich blood that enables the healing process, so adequate blood flow is required for your Achilles to heal properly and quickly.
The BFST® Achilles Wrap is easy to use. Put it on, plug it in, turn it on and sit back and relax. People often notice a slight tingling sensation and warmth deep in their Achilles as the BFST® starts the blood flowing. The effects last up to 4 hours, which means that long after your 20 minute treatment is over, the blood keeps flowing and your Achilles keeps healing. The more you do it, the longer it lasts and the healthier your Achilles gets.
The promotion of blood flow has obvious benefits. The reminder of the injury is incredibly important too, because avoiding re-injury is fundamental to rapid recovery. The BFST® Wrap is designed to be worn even when turned off, to help protect your Achilles from re-injury, and this goes a long way towards shortening your recovery time. Patients enjoy the support and cushioning BFST® wraps provide - patients like wearing them, they know it's helping them heal. This positive attitude further contributes to an overall positive recovery plan.
Professional athletes are the best example of how quickly people can really recover from Achilles Injuries. When a professional athlete is injured, they have explicit instructions to stay off their injured Ankle - no physical activity, no weight on the leg, crutches - they are ordered to rest the Ankle completely. Injured professional athletes are also attended to by professional athletic therapists. These pro therapists have always been assigned to the athlete to ensure they supplement the healing process, to stimulate blood flow many times each day. Regular BFST® treatments are a standard part of that therapy because the more we promote blood flow, the faster we will heal. That's why professional athletes are back in the game in days while regular patients with the same injuries often take weeks or even months to heal. With the addition of BFST®, pro athletes and others who use it are recovering from their Achilles Injuries faster than ever.
Painkillers only mask the pain. Without fail this causes people to overstress and re-strain their Achilles Injury, making their condition worse. It is understandable that people need relief from the pain, so if you have to take painkillers, try to restrict them to times when you are off your feet. You can use painkillers to help you sleep. Using them when you are active is a recipe for permanent damage.
The ColdCure® Achilles Wrap from King Brand® is specifically designed to treat the pain that comes with an Achilles Injury. It also does a superior job of relieving swelling and inflammation. This innovative wrap is incredibly soothing and protects your Achilles from further injury. The painkilling element is incredibly powerful and it works instantly - there's no 20 minute wait like with pills.
Achilles Injuries can be extremely painful and debilitating. NSAIDs such as ASA, acetaminophen or ibuprofen are often used to treat the pain but these drugs do nothing to heal the actual condition. In fact, NSAIDs are known blood thinners and make the bleeding worse for fresh tissue injuries. Typical pain medications actually interfere with the healing process. Cortisone injections are used in extreme cases but these too are only intended to address the pain. They do not promote healing of the injury and they put you at a very high risk of further injury.
For dealing with the swelling and pain associated with an Achilles Injury, nothing works better than cold compression. ColdCure® technology was developed specifically to address the need for a cold compression device that does not freeze the skin and underlying tissue. As a result, ColdCure® therapy can be applied for extended periods of time, providing superior relief from the swelling and pain that come with an Achilles Tendon injury.
The ColdCure® Achilles Wrap is easy to use and each one comes with 3 gel packs you can charge in the fridge or the freezer. Charge the gel packs for at least 1 hour prior to use. Insert the gel pack inside the wrap; apply the wrap to your Achilles until the cold diminishes, then swap the gel pack with a freshly charged one from the fridge or freezer. You can walk with it on and it feels wonderful the entire time you are wearing it.
The ColdCure® Achilles Wrap is made entirely of very stretchy material. It wraps up and around your Achilles and applies a very gentle pressure to the injured area. The wrap contains swappable gel packs of a very special design. They are soft and flexible and cover your entire Achilles, yet the gel inside them won't move out of place. Each ColdCure® Achilles Wrap comes with 3 gel packs. You use them one at a time, keeping the other 2 in the fridge or freezer so you can keep swapping them out as many times as you like. There's no need to take a break between treatments if you're using gel packs stored in the fridge. You can keep using them as long as you want the pain relief.
When you entered our site, an Achilles BFST® and Achilles ColdCure® medical device were automatically put into your shopping cart. What's in your cart are the two things you need to stop the pain and heal your Achilles Injury. You may go to the checkout at any time or please continue to learn more about treating Achilles Injuries by exploring our site. You can also find products to treat other injuries and ailments in our Shop.
For even more relief of pain and swelling, attach an Accessory Strap around the back of your ColdCure® Achilles Wrap. The Accessory Strap provides additional compression, which means maximum relief. It sticks anywhere on the surface of the wrap to target the exact location of your injury that much better.
The Accessory Strap is also ideal for achieving a perfect fit for your BFST® or ColdCure® Achilles Wrap, especially if you have a smaller ankle and need to cinch the wrap in.
Combination Therapy means using ColdCure® and BFST® in combination by alternating treatments. Combination Therapy is much more effective than using just ColdCure® or just BFST®. This is because you're getting both the pain and swelling relief of ColdCure® and the healing benefits of BFST®, resulting in the absolute best treatment for your Achilles Injury.
Use the ColdCure® Wrap for at least 2 straight days before using the BFST® wrap. This will help reduce not only the visible swelling you may see on the surface, but also the inflammation you may have and cannot see, deep down in the soft tissue.
Avoid using the BFST® Wrap until your inflammation and swelling has subsided. Start your BFST® treatments on Level 1. For maximum benefit, please take into consideration that each 20 minute treatment optimizes your blood circulation for an average of 4 hours. We recommend 3-4 treatments daily, spread throughout the day. During the day, do a BFST® treatment every 4 hours or before any type of physical activity. This can include anything that puts a strain on the injured area (walking, standing for extended periods, etc). This can also be used for preventative measures after a full recovery to optimize your blood flow.
Do a ColdCure® treatment any time you experience a pain flare-up or after any physical activity to prevent further injury and reduce swelling and inflammation. 30-45 minutes after your ColdCure® treatment, follow with another BFST® treatment. This time will allow the blood flow and body temperature to regulate again. Refrain from using ColdCure® within the 4 hours following your 20 minute BFST® treatment. This will counteract the treatment. If necessary, use the ColdCure® wrap for pain control, then follow up with another BFST® treatment.
BFST® Wraps are FDA Registered Class II medical devices. Class II medical devices are serious medical devices with very high standards of quality, safety and performance. Class II medical devices have hundreds of pages of regulations and standards to keep you safe and ensure effective treatments. This is a medical device, not a 'consumer good', but it is available to the public to buy and use at home.
The Blood Flow Stimulation Therapy (BFST®) Wrap is designed to promote blood flow in injured tissue below the dermal (fat and skin) layer. Utilizing our patented Energy Web®, specially controlled EMR energy envelops the Achilles and stimulates blood flow in the soft tissue deep beneath the skin. The resulting blood flow brings oxygen and nutrient-rich blood to the injured area, accelerating the healing process.
BFST® Wraps have 3 different power levels, so you can continue to increase the power of your treatments as your Achilles Injury heals. During your first treatment, your Achilles area will feel quite warm. This is because at first, your circulation is poor. The more treatments you do, the less warming sensation you will feel. This is good. As the warmth lessens from treatment to treatment, this is an indication that the circulation in your Achilles is improving. Better circulation means blood flow all the time, not just during treatments. This is the goal. When you feel very little warmth during a treatment, it is time to move up to the next power level. Don't rush it though, more heat does not mean better treatment. In fact, less heat means better treatment, so take your time moving up in levels.
This is not a heating pad. Heating pads only heat the surface of the skin. Heating the surface of the skin does nothing to heal the damaged tissue below the dermal layer. BFST® penetrates deep below the skin to stimulate blood flow in the area of injury, creating an ideal environment for healing. The difference is significant.
The Energy Web® of the BFST® Achilles Injury device is enclosed in a soft, comfortable neoprene wrap. The wrap shapes the Energy Web® to mold around the entire Achilles area to ensure there is an even distribution of energy over your injury. The wrap is opened and closed using attached Velcro® straps that ensure a perfect fit. After treatment the straps can be further tightened to provide snug support and protection for your Achilles. The device disconnects at the wrap from the power supply and controller so you are free to move around your home when not receiving treatments.
Keep doing BFST® treatments even after you think you've healed. The healing process takes much longer than most people realize. Even after you "feel better" your tissue may only be 30-40% healed. If you want your Achilles Injury to heal completely, you need to rest and use BFST®. Continue using BFST® for months after you've healed to maintain the healing that has taken place. Once you get back to doing the activities that you did before becoming injured, do a BFST® treatment before the activity. This will act as a warm up for your circulatory system and will prevent against re-injury.
ColdCure® Wraps are FDA Registered Class I medical devices. These medical grade cold compression wraps are designed for home use. Cold and compression applied to an injured Achilles immediately reduces the risk of further damage from excessive swelling. Doctors and Therapists agree that controlling swelling is a fundamental part of reducing long term permanent damage resulting from a soft tissue injury. The ColdCure® Wrap exceeds all government and health agency regulatory requirements for cold therapy specifically for use in treating soft tissue injuries.
Most people think that RICE - Rest, Ice, Compression & Elevation - is the formula to follow when treating a soft tissue injury, but the proper solution is actually RCCE® - Rest, Cold, Compression & Elevation. You don't want to apply ice, you want to apply cold that is just above freezing. Yes, you want cold - and lots of it - but not so cold that it is below the freezing point of water. The truth is that temperatures below freezing can be too cold to effectively relieve pain and swelling. And these temperatures can also be dangerous. Ice (and other freezer based substitutes such as the blue ice pack) can actually freeze your skin and numb your nerves, causing 'cold burns' and even permanent damage to your underlying tissue.
While we recommend that you start by using them at refrigerator temperatures, you can store the RigiGel® packs in the freezer and use them as freezer packs. Even at the coldest freezer temperatures they retain all their flexibility and firmness. In terms of flex and form they feel exactly the same at room temperature as they do from the freezer.
Each ColdCure® Achilles Wrap comes with 3 gel packs that contain 10x more gel than other packs, for maximum coverage of the injured area. This means your Achilles will receive a targeted, consistent cold treatment every time. When stored in the freezer, our RigiGel® packs have 3x more cooling power than standard gel packs. This means they stay cold longer so you won't have to swap the gels as often. Longer treatment times and more cold power means superior control of pain and swelling.
The ColdCure® Achilles gel pack is enclosed in a soft, comfortable neoprene wrap. We do not use one common gel pack in all our wraps - each body part is shaped differently and each body part deserves a custom designed pack if it's going to work the best. No other wrap in the world has specifically designed cold packs for each and every part of the body. The wrap molds the cold pack up and around the Achilles to ensure that there is an even distribution of cooling power over the entire injured area. This product is 100% designed to be an Achilles Injury treatment device.

These 3 words are who I am right now. for 2 wks I have been completely off plan food wise( exercise has always been great) and before those 2 wks I was off and on plan for the other 2 wks of March. I promised myself that April would be different and it hasn't been. I am always hungry, and no I am not pregnant. I start by eating a little extra and then just pig out. I know I can do better, I know I am worth it and I know that only I can do this, but I don't know what is wrong with me. I did so well for the first 6-7 months and now I am out of control. I hate coming to sparkpeople because I know I am so off plan. Today a guy stopped me who works at a place I walk by daily for the past 7 months and said congratulations you are doing so well on the weight loss, and I just felt so bad because I am doing so bad and don't deserve the congrats right now. I know it is up to me , and just posting about it helps, but it wont stop until I work on it. Today is not the end but the beginning. Cheryl

What food plan are you on? I go through cycles where sometimes I feel famished. I've learned that pigging out is absolutely fine during those times, as long as it's my body that's hungry (not my mind/emotions), and as long as I'm pigging out on something that's pretty healthy. It doesn't have to be celery or carrot sticks (unless that's what you're hungry for of course). When I go through the famished phases, I have to ask myself... is that my body talking or my emotions? If it's my body, I eat (and always keep healthy snacks around, one of my favorites is whole grain melba toast and vegan cream cheese). If it's my emotions, I go for a walk or something. So glad you're blogging about it. Hang in there, you're doing great!!!

1st of all, quit kicking yourself!
2nd someone complimented you! Accept it humbly at the very least!
3rd don't make your goals too challenging for yourself.
Live just for today.
Today, I will not binge (which sounds like your dilemma)
Today I will eat only healthy food.
Today when I feel a need to eat a snack it will be either raw veggies or fresh fruit.
You said yourself that today is the beginning. Make it happen!
Find someone to be accountable to daily who will encourage you.
Hang in there! You've lost 69 pounds! That's nothing to sneeze at! That, my sparkfriend, is excellent!
I read Dr Neal Barnard's book "Turn off the Fat Genes" and that helped me to NOT blame myself and gave me something to work on.
Have a great day and look up, not down!

5 36 56
This creamy soup brings my family to the table in a hurry. I love the warming zip of cayenne, but it also tastes terrific without it if you like milder flavor. With a few simple side dishes, this soup is a full meal.
- 1-1/2 cups water
- 2 cups cubed peeled potatoes
- 2 small carrots, grated
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1/4 cup chopped green pepper
- 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tablespoon beef bouillon granules
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 pound ground beef, cooked and drained
- 2-1/2 cups milk, divided
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 8 ounces process American cheese, cubed
- 1/4 to 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, optional
- 1/2 pound sliced bacon, cooked and crumbled
- In a large saucepan, combine the first nine ingredients; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
- Stir in beef and 2 cups of milk; heat through. Combine flour and remaining milk until smooth; gradually stir into soup. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened and bubbly. Reduce heat; stir in cheese until melted. Add cayenne
- pepper if desired. Top with bacon just before serving. Yield: 6-8 servings (about 2 quarts).
Editor's Note: Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers; the oils can burn skin. Avoid touching your face.

By Ed Runyan
U.S. Reps. Tim Ryan and Bill Johnson have introduced two bills in the House of Representatives in an effort to bring former Newton Falls woman Claudia Hoerig back to Trumbull County to face prosecution in the 2007 murder of her husband.
Hoerig has been indicted in Trumbull County in the death of U.S. Air Force Maj. Karl Hoerig. Trumbull County officials believe she fled to her native Brazil shortly after purportedly shooting her husband in their Newton Falls home.
Brazil has refused to extradite her back to the United States to stand trial despite efforts in the past by Ryan and Trumbull County Prosecutor Dennis Watkins.
The bills are the same ones Ryan, of Niles, D-13th, introduced in June 2011. The bills didn't reach the floor for a vote.
They would end the issuance of visas by the U.S. to Brazilian citizens, preventing them from coming here "since the U.S. has no recourse to extradite those who would flee back to Brazil after committing crimes," Johnson said in a press release.
The other bill would end the approximately $14 million in foreign aid to Brazil.
On Thursday from Washington, Ryan and Johnson, of Marietta, R-6th, had a conference call on the legislation, with Ryan saying it sometimes takes multiple efforts on the same bill to get the attention of members of Congress.
Additionally, Ryan said he believes there's a better chance of success with his Republican colleague working with him.
"To have Congressman Johnson now on the Republican side will be very, very helpful," Ryan said.
Another reason to propose the legislation again, Ryan said, is to make Brazil understand that it cannot "hold the ball and wait us out."
"We are not going away until Claudia Hoerig's butt is back in Trumbull County and in the courtroom," Ryan said.
"I think we're going to see some movement in the coming days," Johnson said.
"There is no reason why Brazil should continue receiving American foreign- aid dollars if it refuses to show basic respect to a friend and ally," he said. "Since Brazil has chosen not to extradite Maj. Hoerig's wife to the United States to stand trial, this legislation would stop foreign aid to Brazil "until the Brazilian government has a change of heart."
Kudos to Congressman Johnson for crossing the aile to extradite this woman for trial.
Crossing the aisle is something little timmie ryan should learn.
He professes his gun rights and anti-abortion issues, but will he stand firm against his party's extremists' when it comes time to vote
I haven't heard a peep from timmie on the current anti-gun debate. Not a word when the Catholic Church and its related organizations opposed providing health insuance for abortion services.
I don't appreciate that the relationship between our countries should be threatened by the case of one suspected criminal. This sounds like a very bad precedent and not very well thought out. Cheap politics that I expect from dumb Johnson, but not Ryan.
gibtactivist This is all little Timmy idea, Johnson just joined him on it. Secondly Why are we even given foreign aid to this country in the first place? It's time we stop all foreign aid to everyone and let them stand on their own merits.
This is what diplomacy is all about. Claudia Hoerig cannot be allowed to get away with murder. Brazil needs to recognize this or lose the benefits of having the United States as an ally.
Sorry gibtactivist but you can't pick and chose who you slam based on your political beliefs and maintain any credibility that you may of had.
Why are we buying Brazil's friendship in the first place? Oh, never mind, you are a member of the gimmie society. What was I thinking!!!
I think these two should work on the problems in this country. Just a few. Social Security, Medicare and the deficit. This effort is being wasted on 1 person out of country of 350 million. Oh, let us not forget about illegale immigration? How nice these two should reach out and touch hands on an issue that is a legal state matter . What happened to all those who say that the government should not get involved in things. This is a thing. Help the US people that went through hurrican Sandy.
How about if they also insert the word "Mexico" into that Bill!

Spirals of suds swirl slowly down the sink.
Currents of sunlight course through the curtains, catching flecks of cascading dust cavorting midair.
Steam slowly escapes from my coffee cup, enticing me to savor its first sip.
Words tumble onto the paper, transforming in tantalizing tales.
Silence surrounds me, embracing me like a long lost friend.

What, No Pink Rocket Ship?: Mars Explorer Barbie
This is Mars Explorer Barbie. She's an astronaut. In pink. With a bubble helmet and trashcan backpack. It looks like she did her makeup too. That's good, it's important to make a good first impression on the nothingness that exists on Mars. LOOK BARBIE -- OVER THERE! *trying to wrestle off pink space boots*
Thanks to Jaclyn, who agrees Mattel should have started with Moon Explorer Barbie and worked their way up from there.

4 10 10
I think this is the ultimate dish to make when sweet Jersey corn is in season. Combined with tomatoes, zucchini and basil, it makes for a spectacular side for brunch, lunch or dinner. —Erin Chilcoat, Central Islip, New York
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 large eggs
- 1 can (10-3/4 ounces) reduced-fat reduced-sodium condensed cream of celery soup, undiluted
- 4 cups fresh or frozen corn
- 1 small zucchini, chopped
- 1 medium tomato, seeded and chopped
- 3/4 cup soft whole wheat bread crumbs
- 1/3 cup minced fresh basil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
- Additional minced fresh basil, optional
- Preheat oven to 350°. In a small skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until tender. In a large bowl, whisk eggs and condensed soup until blended. Stir in vegetables, bread crumbs, basil, salt and onion. Transfer mixture to an 11x7-in. baking dish coated with cooking spray.
- Bake, uncovered, 40-45 minutes or until bubbly. Sprinkle with cheese. Bake 5-10 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. If desired, sprinkle with additional basil. Yield: 10 servings.

This weekend, March 1st and 2nd and next weekend as well, marks Dana Point's Festival of Whales' 43rd Anniversary. Numerous seashore activities around the harbor are scheduled with music, food, art exhibits and cultural activities. Of course, there will be ocean excursions and whale watching to top things off.
If you've ever whale watched in Lahaina, Maui, then you might want to do the road trip down to Dana Point on Saturday, March 1st. You will not only get to whale watch, but, you will be immersed into the Hawaiian culture as well at the Baby Beach location along the west side of the harbor.
This is where Polynesian Connection has set up a day full of cultural dance, music, food and crafts. From 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. you will be a part of a Lahaina- like reverie during whale watching season. Ever husked a coconut? You'll be able to if you pay attention during that demonstration, or ever paddled an outrigger canoe? Jump in when they begin that demonstration.
The Hula will be on beautiful display during Leinani Hula Hui'ana's performance that day. The Samoan and Tahitian dance forms will also be performed and don't miss the awesome 'fire knife' demonstration. Remember that song, 'I am going to a Hukilau?' Well, you can take part in a Hukilau on Saturday.
Children will love being there with all the sights, sounds, smells and excitement of the event. Make it a family outing if you dare.
No children? Then hang around for the evening's luau at the OC Sailing and Events Center from 5:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Formal luau menu and professional entertainment are yours to experience. Tickets are $50 and benefit HALO/Dance for Autism.

Success Story: Seth – Balancing Horomones with The Hauser Diet
When Seth started noticing a decrease in energy and some extra weight around his mid-section, he knew he needed a change. As a 41 year-old health club manager, Seth takes his health seriously. He stays active with 90-minute workouts four times a week and watches his diet very carefully. He told us he would like to be more active but he can't seem to find the energy or motivation to workout like he did a few years prior. When he started to experience knee pain he came to see us for Prolotherapy. As we talked with Seth we learned that he had his testosterone levels checked at his doctor's office, and those levels were low. We told him about our natural medicine program and how the Hauser Diet and other natural medicine remedies could help.
Seth was eager to have Hauser Diet Typing done – he wanted not only to raise his testosterone levels, but also add some variety and purpose to his healthy diet plan. His current diet plan looked seemingly healthy according to traditional nutrition standards. He started each day with a high fiber cereal or oatmeal with skim milk, followed by a piece of fruit midmorning. For lunch he had a lunchmeat sandwich with lettuce, tomato, an apple, some almonds and string cheese. He drank a large fruit smoothie with liquid egg whites every afternoon and either chicken or salmon with some bread at night. These are all "healthy" foods, but are they right for Seth's body?
His Diet Typing results revealed that his current diet was not what he needed to support his physiology. As a fast oxidizer with acidic blood pH, Seth needed a high protein and fat diet with limited carbohydrates. Unfortunately, the high carbohydrate breakfast and multiple servings of fruit per day were only causing blood sugar spikes and acidic blood–a recipe for an energy level disaster! Additionally, his food allergy results showed that he was allergic to eggs, dairy, gluten, almonds, peanuts, pineapple, and flaxseed. Seth consumed all of these foods daily. He would need some serious diet changes to support his physiology for better energy, optimal weight, and balanced hormone levels.
Dr. Hauser also suggested that Seth start natural hormone replacement with a bio-identical testosterone cream. He explained to Seth that presently his body was not producing enough testosterone. Since low testosterone is a risk factor for heart disease and can lead to other health problems, supplementation can be a good idea for people with low levels.
In Seth's case, his Diet Typing results showed that he was glucose intolerant. As his body became more glucose intolerant through the consumption of a high carbohydrate diet, his body's testosterone levels continued to decrease.
Therefore a change in diet was needed to support the body's production of testosterone. More protein and fewer carbohydrates are what Seth needed to balance his hormones; therefore he is an Otter Diet Type. Until the Seth's physiology was corrected through diet, supplementing with testosterone was a good idea.
When Seth came back for a follow-up he told us his changes have been interesting. Decreasing the fruit in his diet was a big change but he was enjoying different recipes for protein shakes to replace the fruit smoothies. He was also trying new meal and snack ideas and was finding purpose behind his choices. Within a month he was noticing a decrease in weight and a firmer midsection. He was happy with his diet changes and was able to add some more activity to his day.
Seth is scheduled to have his testosterone levels checked in a couple of months. As his levels begin to normalize, he will be able to adjust the testosterone supplementation and his diet plan. The goal is to reach optimal health by ensuring that his diet plan supports his physiology and that his hormones are at appropriate levels. Seth is one of the many examples of a patient who decided to take his health to the next level by figuring out the correct healthy diet plan with the goal of optimizing testosterone levels, energy, and weight.

Super prospect Chris Pearson and two others that should have performed together on Team USA in this past summer's Olympics are appearing together in Las Vegas.
Junior middleweight Pearson, junior welterweight Frankie Gomez and junior featherweight Joe Diaz are all on the Golden Boy Promotions fight card on Saturday at the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. USA FOX Espanol will televise the event.
With lightning fast hands, technique and knockout power Pearson should have been a solid favorite to be a major part of the USA Boxing team. Instead the Ohioan opted to turn professional.
"I'm looking forward to my first fight in Vegas," said Pearson (7-0, 6 Kos) who fought for the L.A. Matadors two years ago in the World Boxing League. "I train a lot longer. You're training for a 10 or 12 round fight now. But boxing is boxing."
"I look forward to beating and dominating guys and look forward to Al Haymon putting me in against the best," said Pearson. "My goal is be ranked in the top 10 by the end of the year."
Pearson was a heavy favorite to make the Olympic team but bid good bye to his fellow Team USA members back in November 2011.
"The Olympics is not what it used to be. I didn't have the motivation to be in it," said Pearson who will be fighting in an eight round fight. "My goal is to be a world champion."
Another who was supposed to be on Team USA was East L.A.'s Gomez. Like Pearson he felt that amateur boxing was not his cup of tea and turned professional back in April 2010. He hasn't looked back.
Gomez (14-0, 11 Kos) is scheduled to fight Lanard Lane (13-2, 8 Kos) in a 10-round bout in the main event. The heavy-handed Gomez fought only two times in 2012 but looks to be more active this coming year.
Diaz (1-0) is the only one of the three who actually did participate in the London Olympics this past summer. The South El Monte prizefighter meets Jose Ruiz (2-2) in a scheduled four round contest. Diaz, 20, made his pro debut this past December at the Sports Arena in Los Angeles.
