Okay, so further to my original post above - I'm 65% Hunter now. I guess increase relates to health issues input (never really had that right in the beginning) + now knowing I'm Haplo group X + testing MM. Have just sent off paternal DNA, so can't wait to see the effect that has  Dr D is one smart cookie! Andy  |

My characteristics fit the Nomad profile 63%. Bring on the Manchego cheese, lamb, caviar, wine, and beer! Woooooooooohooooooooooo!  A little braggy, I know, but I am so happy that I was correct and my new naturopath (who will be an old one soon) was wrong. To think I wasted 5 minutes of an appointment arguing with him over whether or not any genotype can gain weight and have trouble losing it. Melissa |

Explorer 48%. Warrior according to Geno. Dr. D.'s description of the characteristics of an Explorer certainly don't match a lot of mine! Hair and eye color wrong. Not left-handed. Not Rh-negative. No anemia. Among a lot of other things. But who cares!?! When I think of the myriad health problems that so many people have and the way the decks are already stacked against non-secretors I don't have any complaints! I think trying to eat right all my life, and the twelve years on the BTD and Geno have paid off! Who knows what is ahead, but I plan to make the most of what this SWAMI plan has to offer!!  to good health!! |

50% explorer.
i knew the moment i read the descriptions on line. I was shocked that according tto the book, i was a Nomad, but after 6 weeks of following (and suffering) on the nomad diet, i splurged for the secretor test and swami ... a relief to find my instincts were correct. |

Same here! When I read the Hunter description online- I was like "Yup that's me!" The book typed me as a Gatherer, but my secretor test made me a Hunter. Intuition always is right. |

In the GTD book advanced calculator I was an Explorer. SWAMI says I'm 42% Teacher, which makes more sense. |

GTD says Gatherer, SWAMI says 44% Explorer...if I change my leg gap to andric instead of neutral, I'm 45% Hunter... guessing I'll become Hunter as I lose my last few pounds.. |

so according to the test.. if I am 42% then I am in a low (13) category?
In the end the diabetes Gene trumps me.. in everything.
To think that this is so.. interesting for future generations that will grow up knowing decades earlier.. ! I just hope and wish for them to learn it early on.. and to believe it sufficiently to create a new future / maybe there-in is the cure for diabetes which has eluded science for so many years and so many dollars spent.. |

I was 49% Teacher, then I cleared the Myers-Briggs result box because I don't get consistent results with M-B. Having no M-B result in my SWAMI, I then became 50% Teacher. That's the only change I made, so unless it was an internal update... |

Yes - thank you Lola. I'm seeing through all these posts that many variables will constitute my GT with the SWAMI so I'll let it work and inform me! |

ok - I finished the SWAMI data entry with the information that I have. I now have a new identity - Gatherer. By the book I was Nomad so I'm looking to focus on the food recommendations now for Gatherer. I think the hardest for me will be giving up my coffee! Anyone have any tricks they have used in this process. It's the bold comfort of the taste in the morning. I'm happy to drink Yerba Mata and Green tea in the afternoon but there's something about that morning cup that just has to be coffee for me and espresso at that! .....I can do this....I can do this..... Also, I see that mayonnaise is an avoid and one of my favorites is egg salad. suggestions for how to do a myonnaise-less egg salad? |

You can make compliant mayonnaise from a vegetable oil that's compliant for you. Yes, coffee is a toughie. I've given it up hundreds of times.  I've gone back to steeping both Green Tea and Yerba Mate together. Then I might drink it straight away, or I might add cocoa powder, ghee, salt and cinnamon for fun. (Sweeteners are a self-imposed avoid for me, even though SWAMI lists a few as beneficial.) It probably helps that I brew real coffee for my daughter at the same time. This at least satisfies the olfactory sense. Good luck! |
| My SWAMI diet is a blend of BTD and GTD Explorer, but I'm not totally compliant. Also I try to choose foods that have a Low Glycemic index. DW and DD are A+, probably also Explorer. |
