About this episode
If you are looking to learn about the potential health benefits of the carnivore diet from a woman who has personally reversed her health and gotten off her prescribed medications by eating an animal-based diet, then this episode is for you.
After a difficult 100lb weight loss journey, Alex Rhodes was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and prescribed Synthroid® (levothyroxine sodium) at twenty years old.
Five years after her diagnosis, she had an "unexplainable" grand mal seizure in the middle of Tulum, Mexico. That moment changed her life forever. Alex was anemic, had low thyroid, was fatigued, and suffered from generalized anxiety. Alex underwent regular doctor's visits, ate healthy, and weight trained as an intermediate athlete. Her seizure forced her to realize she was going to need to change her life.
Alex jumped headfirst into an animal-based lifestyle. Since the switch, she has gotten off all medications and feels stronger, happier, and more focused. Alex believes that her transition to a meat-based diet has allowed her to move toward her truest potential.
Now, Alex's goal is to inspire people to revolutionize their lives through an ancestral way of eating and upgrading their fitness. Alex also aims to bring awareness to the idea that nutrition is the absolute foundation of life.
