📣 Mimi Morgan was given less than a 50% chance of surviving the next 18 months. Today she's deadlifting 135 pounds and training for the 500-mile Camino de Santiago. This is what changed.

📋 Mimi is a wellness coach, certified personal trainer, and Metabolic Health practitioner who faced Parkinson's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, a stroke, and a life-threatening MRSA spinal infection — all within a few years of each other. She went from using a walker and losing hope at a mailbox to building muscle, coming off all medication, and now coaching others with Parkinson's through metabolic and movement-based restoration. This is her full two-year update.

🔑 What You'll Learn

• How Mimi reduced her Parkinson's medication dependency by shifting to a high-fat, low-carb diet and eventually came off all medication after three and a half years
• Why the "mailbox moment" — not a dramatic breakthrough — was the turning point that saved her life, and what she did with just 10 steps a day
• How a MRSA spinal infection destroyed vertebrae L2, L3, and part of L4, and why she still carries the bacteria today and manages around it
• What her coaching approach looks like for people with Parkinson's — including PWR moves, macro tracking, protein timing, and the mental shift she considers non-negotiable
• Why muscle mass may be one of the most important investments you can make before illness strikes, and what she tells clients who want a quick fix

💡 Key Insight

"The act of taking 10 more steps was — I'm worth 10 more steps. That was all I could do, that was all I had in me, but I was worth those 10 steps." — Mimi Morgan

📣 Joomee Kyler spent a lifetime cycling through illness after illness — chronic infections, depression, gestational diabetes, thyroid cancer — until a Type 2 diabetes diagnosis on December 8, 2022 became the day that changed everything. Within three months, her labs looked unrecognizable. Within a year, so did her life.

📋 In this episode, Joomee shares how she approached keto and intermittent fasting without overcomplicating it, what her therapeutic fasting protocol actually looked like, and the long list of conditions that quietly resolved along the way — sleep apnea, fatty liver, GERD, depression, anxiety, chronic hives, and more. She also talks about what it means to become your own health advocate when the system has failed you, and how she now supports others through accountability groups and her passion project, Metabolic Health Stories.

🔑 What You'll Learn

• How a lifetime of unresolved illness connected back to insulin resistance long before a diabetes diagnosis
• The simple, no-macro-counting keto and fasting approach Joomee used to reverse Type 2 diabetes in 3 months
• How to ease into therapeutic fasting — from 16 hours to 72 hours — without overwhelming your body
• Why the conditions that resolved alongside diabetes were just as significant as the lab numbers
• How Joomee now mentors others and why becoming your own advocate is the throughline of her story

💡 Key Insight

"I feel like the luckiest person in the world because I discovered keto and intermittent fasting on the exact same day I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes — it completely changed my life and gave me my future back." — Joomee Kyler

📣 Harmony Bright was diagnosed with schizophrenia at 30, spent 13 years on heavy psychiatric medications, and then accidentally changed everything with food. This is the most-watched episode on the Ketobiography YouTube channel — and it earned that by fitting exactly what this podcast is here to share.

📋 Harmony's story covers schizophrenia, obesity, metabolic syndrome, chronic inflammation, spinal injury, and a medication journey that left her barely able to participate in life. What pulled her out wasn't a prescription. It was a ketogenic diet she stumbled into while trying to reduce inflammation — and the realization, years later, that it had been quietly giving her her life back.

🔑 What You'll Learn

• How a therapeutic ketogenic diet can produce measurable improvements in schizophrenia symptoms
• What medication-induced metabolic damage looks like and how diet can work around it
• Why tapering psychiatric medication can look like relapse — and how to tell the difference
• How glucose and ketone levels interact during withdrawal and why that matters
• Why individualized troubleshooting, a CGM, and a support system are essential during a keto-based taper

💡 Key Insight

"What people see me do when I start feeling those symptoms come on — they'll see me reaching for a meat stick or a fat bomb to lower my glucose. That's the difference of being psychotic and not being in control, and taking control of your illness. That's how you control it with food." — Harmony Bright

📣 Christy Kriese is back — and two years of strict carnivore have changed not just her life, but nearly everyone around her.

📋 Christy spent years cycling through psychiatric medications, a devastating deprescribing experience, and a depression so severe that she was surviving on fewer than 8,000 calories a month. Then, on November 13, 2023, she started carnivore. Now, 890 days in, she still feels better every single day. In this conversation, she and Robyn talk about what changed, who else in her family came along for the ride, and why lived experience is as important as any clinical study.

🔑 What You'll Learn

• Why a too-fast medication taper can mimic — or trigger — a psychiatric crisis, and why that's rarely recognized in treatment
• How Christy's sleep improved by day eight on carnivore, before almost anything else changed
• What happened when her husband, son, son-in-law, daughter, grandkids, and brother-in-law each started carnivore on their own timeline
• Why Christy tracks how she feels rather than macros, ketones, or the scale — and why that approach works for her mental health history
• How she went from a burner Twitter account called Little Miss Depressive Episode to doing one-on-one crisis support for people across the country

💡 Key Insight

"Waking up at nighttime wondering if you killed somebody or if you've tried to kill yourself because you can't separate reality from your dreams — that's hard. This is not hard." — Christy Kriese

📣 What are exogenous ketones, and who actually needs them? Frank Llosa, founder and CEO of KetoneAid and Hard Ketones, cuts through the marketing noise to explain what works, what doesn't, and why.

📋 From brain fog and traumatic brain injury to sleep, alcohol alternatives, and mental health, this conversation goes deep on how ketones can fill the brain energy gap — and when the ketogenic diet alone is the better answer. Frank breaks down the real science behind ketone esters, ketone salts, and MCT oil, explains why high blood ketone numbers don't tell the whole story, and makes a compelling case for Hard Ketones as an alcohol alternative that works at the biochemical level — not just the buzz.

🔑 What You'll Learn

• The critical differences between ketone esters, ketone salts, and MCT oil — and why the molecule matters more than the marketing
• Why high blood ketone numbers don't tell the whole story, and what the brain energy gap really means for mental and neurological health
• How exogenous ketones may support recovery from traumatic brain injury, and why Frank says TBI patients should default to a ketogenic diet
• Why Hard Ketones work as an alcohol alternative — and the surprising biochemistry behind why people crave alcohol in the first place
• The one best reason to try a ketone ester: it depends entirely on your biggest deficit

📣 Pam Groth spent 16 years on prednisone for multiple sclerosis before it pushed her into type 2 diabetes. Then she found keto — and everything started to shift.

📋 Pam grew up signing as a child of deaf adults, then lost her own hearing to MS. Managing two chronic conditions while navigating a medical system that doesn't always make space for deaf patients, she turned to keto through a deaf diabetes support group. Her A1C dropped from 9 to 5.5, her insulin doses came down, and the neuropathy pain that made sleep impossible finally became manageable. Now she coaches deaf clients in American Sign Language, making metabolic health information accessible to a community that rarely gets it.

This is a shorter episode — a technology-challenged conversation that still delivers something real: a practical, hopeful look at food as medicine, advocacy in the exam room, and what it means to build a community around information that can change lives.

🔑 What You'll Learn

• How 16 years of prednisone for MS contributed to type 2 diabetes and severe neuropathy
• Why cutting carbs, lowering dairy, and tracking macros helped Pam reduce insulin and stabilize blood sugar
• How carbs specifically flare both MS and diabetes-related nerve pain, disrupting sleep and compounding fatigue
• What it's like to navigate medical appointments as a deaf patient, and why patient portals and advocates matter
• How Pam coaches deaf clients in ASL to lower A1C, rethink buffet culture, and understand real-food keto

💡 Key Insight

📣 Menopause doesn't just change your hormones — it changes your gut, your brain, your bones, and your metabolic health. Nurse practitioner and midlife women's health expert Cynthia Thurlow explains why the microbiome is the missing link in most menopause conversations.

📋 Cynthia unpacks the powerful connection between the gut microbiome, hormones, blood sugar, sleep, stress, and muscle mass in perimenopause and menopause. She explains how simple, consistent lifestyle shifts can dramatically ease hot flashes, brain fog, weight changes, and sleep issues — and why chasing the newest supplement or gadget is the wrong first move. You'll also hear a candid discussion about HRT, GLP-1 medications, trauma, and practical first steps you can start today.

🔑 What You'll Learn

• Why midlife physiology changes everything — from neurotransmitters to hormones — and what that means for your daily habits
• How blood sugar, hot flashes, and sleep are tightly linked, and why stabilizing glucose is a first-line strategy for vasomotor symptoms
• The critical role of fiber, short-chain fatty acids, and the microbiome in menopause, and why gut diversity drops as hormones decline
• How muscle mass, strength training, and walking after meals support insulin sensitivity and metabolic health in midlife women
• A nuanced view of HRT and GLP-1 medications — who they can help, why pellets can be problematic, and why lifestyle still forms the foundation

💡 Key Insight

"What you got away with at 18 is not what you get away with at 45 or 50 — and that's not a personal failure, it's a reflection of your changing physiology." — Cynthia Thurlow

📣 Years of work, cross-country screenings, and a groundbreaking cholesterol documentary all come together in this powerful in-person conversation between Ketobiography host Robyn Dobbins and engineer-researcher Dave Feldman. They unpack the emotion and logistics behind The Cholesterol Code film tour, the surprising way keto helped Robyn's bipolar journey, and why real-world stories must sit alongside rigorous science.

📋 You'll hear what's next for the Keto-CTA research, how CoSci grew into a Vegas-based fundraising "conference in disguise," and why many in the low-carb world are re-examining long-held beliefs about LDL, ApoB, and heart disease risk.

🔑 What You'll Learn

• How a "one-question podcast" turns into a deep dive on The Cholesterol Code film, from CoSci premieres to the Dallas screening and Amazon launch
• Why Robyn's keto journey started as a cholesterol fix and unexpectedly reshaped her experience of bipolar disorder and medication side effects
• What the Keto-CTA study suggests so far about lean, metabolically healthy people with very high LDL, and why Dave is pushing for 5-year scans and a 200-person companion study with a control group
• How personal stories, documentary film, and platforms like Ketobiography and Metabolic Collective help challenge the standard LDL narrative and invite more individualized care
• Why Dave thinks many doctors genuinely want to help yet risk losing patient trust when they dismiss imaging, context, and lived experience — and how the film might help bridge that gap

💡 Key Insight

"You've got to do both. You've got to do the research and get it in the literature — but you can't count on it to just take off from there. That's why the personal stories matter so much." — Dave Feldman

📣 In this special Ketobiography episode, host Robyn Dobbins shares her recent interview with Casey Ruff from Boundless Body Radio, along with the lived-experience panel from the Menlo Park, California screening of The Cholesterol Code. Robyn and Casey revisit her journey from years of severe mental and physical illness — including OCD, obesity, depression, Hashimoto's, and bipolar disorder — to discovering ketogenic metabolic therapy and rebuilding her life, relationships, and sense of purpose.

📋 They explore the central tension raised by The Cholesterol Code: what it means to live as a lean-mass hyper-responder with very high LDL, zero coronary plaque, and profound mental health benefits from a ketogenic diet, and how to weigh that reality against standard cholesterol guidelines and the fears of clinicians, family, and society. The episode then moves to the Menlo Park lived-experience panel moderated by Dr. Bret Scher, featuring Robyn Dobbins, Dr. Eric Rodgers, Michelle Hurn, and Lauren Kennedy West of Living Well After Schizophrenia — a candid conversation about anorexia, schizophrenia, major depression, athletic performance, and the practical realities of sustaining these approaches in everyday life.

🔑 What You'll Learn

• How Robyn's long history with bipolar disorder and other conditions shifted when she began using a ketogenic diet for metabolic and mental health.
• Why The Cholesterol Code focuses on lean-mass hyper-responders, and what high LDL with zero plaque might mean for people who are otherwise metabolically healthy.
• How parents, partners, and children experience and adapt to one family member's healing — emotionally, relationally, and over time.
• How ketogenic and low-carb therapies are being used in real life for anorexia, schizophrenia, major depression, and athletic performance, and what trade-offs the panelists consider around risk and benefit.
• Why centering lived experience — through storytelling, panels, and community building initiatives like Metabolic Collective — is crucial as science on metabolic psychiatry continues to evolve.

💡 Key Insight

"There's no reason to go back to how I was just because of this one number. My overall well-being, the joy and energy I have now — there's no trading that for a lab result." — Robyn Dobbins

📣 In this special replay from Less of Me Success Stories, Ketobiography host Robyn Dobbins shares a powerful conversation with a fellow Cholesterol Code participant whose story of treatment-resistant depression, medication side effects, and weight gain led him to discover metabolic therapies and low-carb nutrition. Recorded on March 1st, 2025, this episode captures what it looks like to be both a clinician and a patient, to question standard approaches to mental health, and to slowly reclaim hope when nothing seems to work.

📋 As Robyn returns from a sold-out screening of The Cholesterol Code in Durham, NC, she invites listeners to hear this conversation as a "before" snapshot — one year before their intertwined stories reached the big screen.

🔑 What You'll Learn

• How long-term depression, weight changes, and polypharmacy can erode hope — and why that story is more common than we think.
• What it feels like to navigate the mental health system as both a doctor and a patient searching for answers.
• How discovering ketogenic and metabolic therapies opened a new path for mood, energy, and overall stability.
• Why nutrition, metabolism, and brain health are deeply connected, especially in cases labeled "treatment-resistant."
• How sharing lived experience publicly — and now on film in The Cholesterol Code — can reduce stigma and offer hope to others.

💡 Key Insight "We have an option for people — and they need to know what's out there, because the most frustrating thing is that doctors often aren't interested, even after they see the change." — Eric Rodgers
