Now thriving at forty-two with stable weight, glowing skin, robust immunity and balanced cognition, she advocates keto-carnivore science and urges critical re-evaluation of plant-based dogma.

In 2018, inspired by a Joe Rogan interview with Jordan Peterson, he adopted a strict keto-carnivore diet. Within days, his symptoms dramatically improved.
