PCOS, Anemia & Carnivore S3E99
Description
From childhood food addiction and severe acne to PCOS, debilitating anemia, depression, and years of failed diets, Varsha’s journey is a powerful story of searching for answers when conventional approaches weren’t working.
Growing up between Saudi Arabia and India, Varsha embraced vegetarianism and veganism, trying everything from raw veganism to restrictive, low-calorie eating. Her health continued to deteriorate, and her hemoglobin fell to a dangerously low 5.5.
Then she began reintroducing animal foods. Adding eggs and broth was followed by a remarkable improvement in her hemoglobin, and eventually she discovered the Carnivore and meat-based ketogenic lifestyle.
In this revealing conversation, Varsha shares her experience with PCOS, food addiction, mental health struggles, hormonal issues, and the challenges of embracing Carnivore in a culture where eating meat can carry significant religious and social stigma.
We also explore reverse dieting, chronic under-eating, food cravings, metabolic health, muscle preservation, and why Varsha believes animal-based nutrition has transformed her life.
Can changing what you eat change the direction of your health? Varsha explains why she is determined to share her experience with other women who are still searching for answers.
Watch until the end to hear why this once-shy woman is now speaking out about her experiences and encouraging others to question the dietary advice they have always been given.
