As a performer, Bella has always been concerned with how she looked. She had acne problems and serious weight issues that she wanted to overcome. Desperate to find healing, she turned to the vegan diet. She only ate whole-food plant-based and did not take any supplements. Great results happened initially. She finally lost weight and felt some surge of energy. But after a few years, her body started to feel nutrient deficiencies, she wasn’t getting her period, and her skin condition didn’t improve at all.

After 6 years of vegan diet, amidst the guilt-tripping of the community, she left and started to eat meat again. From a committed whole-foods vegan, she chose to go full carnivore diet.

And she has never felt that great.

That’s how she became the Steak and Butter Gal. In this episode, hear the first-hand experience of someone who has been on different sides of the dieting spectrum, why the carnivore diet makes her feel her best, and how she uses her platform to reach and help more people by building a support community.
