Imagine a life where Type 2 diabetes doesn't dictate your day. Sounds too good to be true? It's not.
This simple guide will show what's possibly being missed and the probable root causes to blood sugar challenges.
"How I Dropped My A1c from 9.6 to 6.0 in 90 Days" is loaded with information to help break free from conventional wisdom.
Learn how to put type 2 diabetes into remission and restore the foundations of good health. Let me be your guide!
"There’s been a very well coordinated program by the doctor with thoroughness in checking into my blood chemistry and physiological makeup. I’m feeling myself again. At one time when I was getting medications from my regular doctor I was getting numbness and tingling in one of my legs from diabetic neuropathy. But since I’ve gone on this program and followed it, the numbness has gone away, my legs feel springier, I actually walk my dog and even started to jog a bit. And at one time I couldn’t cut my grass without taking a five minute break every ten minutes. Dr. Bletzinger’s program has been tremendous and I hope to continue the success that’s going. It’s been very successful and I appreciate the doctor’s help."

Have you ever looked in the mirror and thought...
“What happened to me?”
Feeling “off” could be a real symptom of low testosterone, not just aging.
Male andropause isn’t talked about enough—but it’s real and it’s common.
Fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, and low libido are all connected to hormonal imbalance.
Your energy, drive, and clarity can come back with the right strategy.
You can start with the Unlock Your Midlife Edge eBook and a Functional Health Assessment.
When did it happen for you?
Was it when your favorite shirt stopped fitting right?
Or when you forgot the thing you just walked into the room for?
Or when your energy dipped so low in the afternoon that you needed both a coffee and a nap?
I hear it from guys all the time:
“I just don’t feel like myself anymore.”
And no—this isn’t about getting old.
It’s about something else. Something fixable.
This isn’t about grinding harder.
You’ve tried pushing through. That worked when you were 30. But now? Not so much.
Because this isn’t just burnout.
This is hormonal.
Low testosterone affects over 6.5 million men in the U.S. alone—many of them walking around undiagnosed because they think feeling like crap is just “being a man.” [source]
You start feeling “off.”
Then one day, you look in the mirror and don’t recognize the guy staring back.
Let’s break it down:
Testosterone shapes your mood, your drive, your “get up and go.”
When levels drop, motivation tanks and irritability shows up uninvited.
Apathy becomes your default—and that scares the hell out of you.
This isn’t in your head. It’s in your bloodwork.
[PubMed: Hypogonadism and Mood Disorders]
You’re not lazy—you’re running on empty.
Testosterone regulates how your body uses fuel (aka: food).
Low T messes with your metabolism and muscle mass.
So you’re gaining weight while eating the same.
Studies confirm testosterone affects how we generate and store energy [Healthline].
Struggling to focus?
Feel like your memory is slipping?
Low testosterone impacts neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin.
Translation: focus, mood, and memory get foggy fast. [source]
Let’s talk about it.
Low libido isn’t “just stress.”
It’s one of the clearest signs of low T.
Reduced interest in sex, fewer morning erections, and performance anxiety aren’t just frustrating—they affect your identity.
And it’s not just in your head. It’s biochemical.
[UCSF: Male Hypogonadism Explained]
Testosterone levels drop 1% per year after age 30. [PubMed]
It happens slowly, which is why it’s easy to miss—until everything feels harder:
Work
Parenting
Relationships
Sex
Sleep
You don’t feel like you anymore.
That’s not weakness. That’s physiology.
And there’s a fix.
You don’t need more coffee.
Or another generic men's health supplement.
You need data.
Step 1: Download the Unlock Your Midlife Edge eBook. It breaks this all down with no fluff—just facts, signs, and action steps.
Step 2: Book a Functional Health Assessment.
We run real labs. We look at your numbers.
No guessing. No hype.
Step 3: Build a long-term strategy.
This isn’t a quick detox. It’s your comeback.
Yes. Also known as late-onset hypogonadism, it’s a clinical diagnosis. It affects millions of men—but few get tested.
It depends on your levels. Many men improve with lifestyle shifts alone. Others need Testosterone Replacement Therapy. You need labs to know.
Most over-the-counter supplements aren’t based on your needs. Without labs, you're guessing.
Nope. Symptoms of low testosterone can hit in your 30s or even late 20s depending on stress, sleep, diet, and genetics.
Straight talk on how testosterone affects your body, how to spot the signs, and how to fix it—with natural + clinical solutions.
You don’t need to feel this way.
You don’t need to guess.
You don’t need to accept that life just gets “less sharp.”
You can rebuild your energy, reclaim your mental edge, and feel like yourself again.
All you need is a real strategy—and it starts with this eBook.
And if you're ready to get serious?
