His own unexplained weight gain in spite of his very active lifestyle and healthy eating led him to do extensive research on Syndrome X and what to do to help the body process glucose correctly. His personal quest resulted in the formulation of the revolutionary weight loss supplement SynexDiet™. He is currently hard at work completing his "non-diet" book Fat Loss: Quick Safe And Simple.
