The 7 factors of swaying

The 7 sway factors was a term I came up with in 2008.  If you read my previous post on how its all connected you will understand.  You can't just pick one factor over the other as you do not know which one is most important for you. However,  Diet seems to play a HUGE role.  It controls pH, mineral ions and hormones.  The new information is all very very fascinating.  Just wanted to give you a heads up.. if you going to skip something  DON'T SKIP THE DIET!  Either do the:

1. IG diet
2. French diet
3. or the Trivers Willard Hypothesis
   
   What ever diet you do, do it 110+%

However, I feel you still need to sway with all 7 factors at 100%.  The seven factors are:

1. pH- this means the pH caused by diet, hormones, ions, supplements and douches. A douches is not as good as changing your pH through oral methods.
2. Minerals- You NEED to track your Calcium, Magnesium, Sodium and Potassium.  For ttc a girl and ttc a boy you have different targets to meet.  Minerals are first obtained through diet then supplements.
3. Diet- It is very important to stick to the gender diet as posted in the FAQ forum on IG.  1000's of hours have gone into this diet.  It is more than just a swaying diet as it encompasses  all the studies (gender diet, pH, ions, minerals) into one diet.
4. Hormones-  This is only controlled through supplements, diet and drinks.  Studies show that  hormones play a huge role is swaying
5. supplements- I put this in the 7 sway factors because it backs up so many of the factors. 
6. Timing-  Many studies say that Timing does not work.  However 3 newer studies say it may.  Because of the new studies I have left Timing in the sway factors.
7. Ions-  Ions can effect the polarity of your egg and your pH.  Ions come from many different sources and some people are as effect by them as others. 

I almost made cm an 8th factor but decided to leave it out due to confusion.  If you get the 7 factors right then cm should fall into place.  If not cm is very important and needs to be right.  For ttc a boy you want ewcm and for ttc a girl you want creamy to dry cm.
