Thomas, ISO100, collagen, creatine and glycine before and after workouts. Hamburger, chuck steak or eye round at 1.5lbs daily... 100% has changed everything about my ability to make gains while losing fat. Started at 350lbs, down to 210 and getting cut! Under 15% body fat from starting at 50% and it's been under a year and two months total time. Zinc, lipid-c, ICB complex, daily coffee with grass fed butter, creatine, glycine and collagen. People can't understand how I've accomplished all the progress and keep telling them, do everything. I sauna daily, workout 4 to 5 days a week and prioritize sleep. Getting an hour and a half of deep sleep and 7 to 9 hours of total sleep nightly the whole time while sticking to a fasting/feeding schedule daily. I'll be putting some content together to help explain my own perspective of this journey as I've encouraged dozens of people locally to join the gym and eat clean. From diabetic with A1C of 9.0 to now a 4.4.... this is what winning back your life is all about. Gravity is a constant, doesn't mean it has to hold you down. Swap the fat for muscle and break free of the daily struggle!

***SUMMARY*** Zinc might be the most underrated men's health nutrient. It doesn't just raise testosterone — it improves androgen receptor sensitivity, meaning your body actually uses testosterone better. It also regulates neurotransmitter firing in the brain (focus, memory, recall), drives 340+ enzymatic reactions in the immune system, and directly supports bone density. Mild deficiency is common and subtle — low drive, brain fog, slower recovery — and most men don't connect it to zinc. Best source is beef (especially ground, for the collagen cofactors), followed by oysters, lamb, and pork. If supplementing, keep it 10–30mg and balance with copper at ~8:1 or you'll trade one deficiency for another.

2 yrs ago I started eating 1lbs of red meat every day for lunch. At 58 yrs old I wanted to trim down a little more and put on a little more muscle and I was surprised how easy it is for me to put on muscle. I can see that I'm leaner which I was not expecting how lean I'm getting from meat. This was the cheapest, easiest thing I've done for a little more muscle and being leaner with nothing extra added in. Oh and the kicker, I no longer crave anything which was something I did not expect. I never want to snack or have something sweat.
