I’ve been tracking my GKI on weekends. Friday was 1.2 (low for me), yesterday 1.8, and today 2.3. How often do I need to be in the lowest zones for fat burning & cognitive improvements?

Curious when I know I am having my exit day, I increase my K2 from my typical 320mcg to more, seems to help mitigate hyperglycemic swings, if you are tracking GKI, curious if you had used K2 as a modifier. It really seems to help energy stability, in or out.

Hi all,
I graduated during Covid with a double major in business administration and business management with a minor in marketing and magically ended up in sales because I needed a job. I’m about to take a data analytics course to make an attempt to break into that field. I’m currently looking for a mentor to help guide me during this time. Also, if anyone is willing to look over my resume and give me tips on how to make it more presentable for recruiters in DA that would be very helpful. Thanks
