## Resource

Two health coaches, Stephen Curtain and Mark Ennis, sit down for a candid conversation about testosterone, TRT, and the often-overlooked foundations of hormonal health. They discuss why it’s essential to take an honest inventory of your lifestyle - training, sleep, and diet - before considering TRT. They explore what “normative” test levels should look like for people following a Carnivore diet. For instance, adaptation to Carnivore can lower hormones such as T3 - but is that necessarily a bad thing? The conversation also touches on Nick Norwitz’s latest self-experiment, where his reported weight loss on a high-fat diet raises an important question: was it truly fat loss, or could it reflect muscle mass loss after dropping his protein intake to just 9%? A thoughtful discussion on hormones, fat nutrition, and what the numbers on a lab report really mean.
