Personalizing Nutrition - there is no one-size-fits-all
Sep 18, 2023
I used to think that one day, I'd find the plan or the solution that was right for me. Was it Atkins, The 6-Week Body Makeover, low carb, or Whole 30? Was it vegetarianism or plant-based? Was it whole foods? Or maybe something else? [Read more]

I have Lipedema - what in the world is lipedema?
Nov 29, 2022
A few years ago, I heard of a condition called Lipedema. This was a true "Ah-Ha!" moment. The first of many. I first heard of lipedema in a Facebook group where someone shared that they had lipedema. They shared some pictures and discussed their symptoms. It felt a lot like I was reading my own life story.

That Keto Bread You're Eating is Not Keto
Sep 5, 2023
I know, it says keto right on the label. And they've done the math for you...it's ZERO net carbs. How exciting! I hate to be the bearer or bad news, but that keto bread you bought at the grocery store is not going to help you maintain a healthy ketogenic metabolic state.

But Is It Sustainable? Can I Eat This Way Long-term?
June 14, 2022
I love when people ask this question because it means they're looking for a long-term solution, not a quick fix. I love when people as this question because it means they have an inquiring mind, are discerning of information, and are thinking things through.

Basically you're not a carnivore? *insert eye roll here*
Jun 16, 2022
I get this question a lot. If someone sees a little hot sauce on top of my Pork Rind Nachos...if I post an image of my Garlic Cheesy Bread...if someone sees that there are a couple pieces of jalapeno on top of my Pizza…or if someone sees that I eat mushrooms…the mycophobia is strong with some people…inevitably, someone has to remark, "oh so you're not a carnivore then?" *insert eye roll here*

PSA: Meat doesn't rot in the gut

Fasting - are there groups who should not fast?
Mar 13, 2023
People on health journeys or who are interested in longevity often want to know about fasting and whether or not it's something they should do. And if it's something they should do, for how long? Those are all very good and legitimate questions. To answer, my mind wonders how fasting (famine) has historically affected the populations and how. Meaning, do certain genders or certain age groups survive famine better than others? And there is data on both age and gender when it comes to survivability in times of famine.

Keto is overwhelming! At first
Jun 14, 2022
Well, yes. As a matter of fact, keto is overwhelming...at first. I, too, was once reading up on ketogenic diets and felt overwhelmed by the vast differences in how many people are formulating their ketogenic diet and in how it eschews everything I'd ever read, heard, or learned anywhere about nutrition.

My #1 tip for anyone new to the idea of implementing a ketogenic diet that is appropriate for the treatment of lipedema
Dec 14, 2022
Leave everything you thought you knew about nutrition behind. It was pretty much all wrong.
That might feel overwhelming. But try to look at it like this: if what you were doing before wasn't working, doesn't it stand to reason that it might have been wrong?
