Hi Kris,
I've never been on this board but thought I'd give my 2 cents on Dr. A's system. I've been on it for a year and am typed as a T/P. I'm a thyroid type with strong secondary pituitary. I was on thyroid support for 3 years when I started and was able to come off of it after 7 months on the diet. I'm on a high protein, low carb diet and no longer have cravings. I also took out milk because of the pituitary influence on my bodytype. I'm 25, in grad school and am feeling great. My body is not missing the synthroid at all. Dr. A was the first to come out with the bodytype system. It's so good to feel healthy! On the muscle testing-I haven't read Dr. Mein's book but I went through it during accupressure treatments for allergies. Muscle testing showed what I was allergic(weak) to and what I wasn't. It's kind of like asking your body "How do you feel about this" and if the muscle "flops" you are weak to the substance you're holding or asked about. Sounds crazy but it did work for me. Lew
