Going Against The Grain | Dr. Shawn Baker & Advait
About this episode
Despite maintaining a mostly vegetarian diet and an active lifestyle, the narrator and his wife began experiencing metabolic health issues, including prediabetes, high triglycerides, vitamin deficiencies, and depression, which they initially attributed to stress and aging. After a personal health scare and extensive research, they decided to shift to a ketogenic diet in late 2021, gradually incorporating more animal products and reducing carb intake, which led to significant improvements in their physical health, mental well-being, and overall quality of life, although they still struggle with sugar cravings and maintaining their dietary changes.
