Re: low T...
Just a thought, Years ago at the age of about 24 I saw a chiropractor that also was in to kineseology, dealing with the body from a Eastern medical standpoint, probably somewhat kin to acupuncture as far as pressure points, certain areas of the body inner connected through our nervous system..how the brain sends messages to the body.He asked me after a brief check as my back was gone, "I bet your one that has little energy, especially groggy in the morning...sometimes feel as though you'd spent the night previous partying when you hadn't?"...That was me bigtime...I wasn't a grouch persay as long as you didn't talk to me before coffee, lol...
Anyway he said my adrenal glands were not producing enough adrenaline..adrenal disfunction, I said okayyyy...he put me on a supplement of beef adrenal pills, ugh stuff....BUT, within a short time, I had energy, mornings still loved coffee but I woke up happy, and was approachable even before a sip! I lived with a girlfriend and we shared a house with another couple....well the GF asked first.."Who IS this guy?"...and the others agreed jokingly, but serious as well as far as the change so apparent...I was amazed, totally. And to this day, now age 50 I've not felt like crap when I get up, I haven't the lack of energy. Medicine in this country still shuns much of the eastern ideas as far as approach, so some standard practitioners will scoff at this...but I tell you sincerely to maybe check it out. I've seen two chiropractors that also believed in kineseology, (spelling? eh, lol ) But both amazed me...one always took my watch off prior to testing my muscle strength etc...even tho this was about my back. He'd have me hold my arm straight out, then push down having me to try and resist or stop him from doing so...I asked him about the watch thing after many visits, and he did the same test, one without the watch, then again by just holding the watch against my wrist. With the watch there, when I tried to hold his pushing down on my arm, I had no ability to stop him...weak. Take the watch away, I could hold him back from pushing the arm down...I said "whoah, hoo doo the voo doo that you doo?" He said the watch puts out a small amount of current, but enough to partially block the messages, or pathways that carry them and that was why I lost strength...He did the same thing, first with an orange placed in my hand...I had full strength, then again but with an unopened pack of smokes in my hand...I had no strength! My father went to him, also a great friend of mine took his daughter there, not for this eastern approach but for back pain, just as I did...Both came out with similar stories, both amazed..and my Dad was not one to be open to such things! SO two different chiropractors who used the usual methods for chiropractic, but used the other approach to assess muscle strength etc. prior to adjustment....The proof is in the pudding as they say..again, just a thought, idea.
All the best!
