Laura, a registered nurse with a remarkable health transformation story, shares her journey from starting a ketogenic diet back in 1991, a day before Thanksgiving, to becoming a carnivore and ultimately adopting a lion diet for the past 10 months. Laura's health overhaul began when she decided to take control of her wellbeing, leading to an astonishing loss of 140 pounds without the use of statins recommended by her doctor, whom she fired 9 months into her journey. Diving deep into her experience, Laura explains how her triglyceride levels plummeted from over 1000 to an astounding 33-35, defying her initial medical prognosis. Her journey didn't stop there; inspired by her own success, she pursued a career in nursing. Over four years ago, Laura transitioned to a carnivore diet and has been following the lion diet for the last 10 months, further refining her health and vitality. Laura's passion for health extends beyond her personal achievements. As a nurse, she is dedicated to educating patients, their families, and even their doctors about the benefits of dietary changes. Her proudest accomplishments include helping two male patients reverse their diabetes, leading them to discontinue all insulin and oral diabetic medications. This video is not just Laura's story but a testament to the power of dietary intervention in transforming health. Whether you're interested in keto, carnivore, or the lion diet, Laura's insights provide valuable lessons on taking control of your health, questioning conventional medical advice, and the profound impact of diet on chronic conditions.
