About this episode
Jill is 35 years old and lives with her husband and two kids in Indianapolis, Indiana. Jill has struggled with her weight most of her life and was diagnosed as prediabetic at 22. She has also struggled with heavy periods, which have caused her to have dangerously low iron levels at various points in her adult life. Even after adopting a "healthy" lifestyle, including reducing her calories and vigorous exercise, Jill struggled with her blood sugar, menstrual cycles, and hormones, which led her to seek help from a holistic nurse practitioner when she and her husband were trying to conceive eight years ago. With the guidance of her nurse practitioner, Jill learned how to balance her hormones naturally with a low-carb meat-based diet and got pregnant naturally without IVF or other medical interventions typically used to treat women with imbalanced hormones. Since then, Jill has experimented with various levels of low-carb eating and officially began following the carnivore diet in the early fall of 2022, leading to even greater health benefits.
