Daily Calories:
Instructions: Select ONE option per meal. Prolonged caloric deficits and low carbohydrates can suppress thyroid and testosterone output. This Phase VII protocol emphasizes dietary cholesterol (eggs, full-fat dairy) and micronutrient-dense seeds to sustain endocrine function while maintaining deep lipolysis (fat burning).
| Hydration: Consume 4–5 litres of fluid. Salt food to taste to support adrenal function, which regulates blood pressure and fluid balance during extreme cutting.
| Fats: Saturated and monounsaturated fats are essential here. They act as the backbone for steroid hormone synthesis when carbohydrate energy is absent.
