We then have
our doctors in nutrition as well.
So for context, our nutrition is the head of performance nutrition with England Rugby, you know, they're all PhDs in their respective areas.
So we have experts across the board.
So they'll work collaboratively with the blood work and the nutrition plan, but there is no real one size fits all approach.
I think the main thing that we tend to see from the bloods around, you know, testosterone and free testosterone levels is with the guys that we work with who are, you
We talk a lot about allostatic load.
So if we're thinking allostatic load, we call it the stress bucket, if you like, for simplistic layman's terms, is accumulative stress goes into the same bucket.
So we could be looking at training stress, we could be looking at relationship stress, we could absolutely be looking at business stress, and then all of the other lifestyle and environmental stresses like travel.
live in Dubai now I flew back to London for a talk on some leadership summit last week and you know that's an eight hour flight 14 hours of travel well I've got to be quite mindful that the bucket was quite full in that moment but I still tried to bring my best self there and then so all of these things really need to be considered so they will impact the bloods and the markers that we do have so I
I can't really give a definitive do not eat this moving forward, unfortunately.
But what we would say is that everything that we do is truly individualized to that person.
Just today, for example, we have a client here, Indian trader, big businessman out here.
And one of my nutritionists, he'd originally advised him to increase his vitamin D intake.
Then our other nutritionist saw his blood panel and went a step further and challenged the other nutritionist on it and said, you're only asking him to have, I
and he said i think you know with his markers he's actually pretty low there so he actually increased the dose 3x so he's going to try that for a small period of time so it is very individualized but that's just one case today uh with this this yeah this indian trader out here that um will make that intervention but then we'll get his bloods done again to see how there's been a change
Yeah, adapt and overcome.
So I, 13 years ago in London, in Harley Street, I had spinal surgery.
I had a microlumbar deceptomy L4, L5, and I was in debilitating pain, Charles, so I can certainly speak on this.
At the time, it was, whew, want to jump off a building type stuff.
