Daisy’s latest extraordinary woman, Brooke, talks about how a psychedelic treatment and KetoAF turned her life around.
Brooke is 26 and an artist, health and psychedelic enthusiast that has found her way to nutrition through her drug addiction and eating disorder recovery. Her passion for nutrition was spurred through finding a ketogenic carnivorous way of eating that brought her freedom from her bulimia and addiction.
Through an Ibogaine treatment two years ago, Brooke gained a new lease on life and began to heal her body through nutrition. With much experimentation she has found a KetoAF approach to be the most freeing and powerful way of eating. She is now pursuing a career in nutrition because it has helped her so much in her own life, and she is currently in school.
Her dream is to one day be a counselor/coach/nutritionist to those struggling with Eating Disorders. Through yoga, meditation, art and nutritious eating she is able to maintain the balance and beauty in her life each and every day.
Daisy’s latest extraordinary woman, Brandy, talks about how she ditched her obesity label, along with PCOS, high blood pressure, clinical depression and anxiety.
Brandy lives on Bainbridge Island in the state of Washington. She is part of a blended family and she and her husband have raised five children, ranging in age from 15 to 26.
Brandy has been overweight since childhood and since she was a very young adult, has weighed more than 300 pounds at any given time. At the age of 43, Brandy was severely insulin resistant, weighed 325 pounds, was medicated for clinical depression, anxiety and high blood pressure, had PCOS and had started developing painful blood clots in her legs.
Now, not quite two years later, Brandy’s life is completely different, thanks to the adoption of the Ketogenic dietary model. She has lost 96 pounds so far, has no blood clots and no symptoms of PCOS. Her blood pressure has normalized all on it’s own. And perhaps most importantly for her, the way of eating has resolved her depression and controlled her anxiety better than any medication she was ever prescribed. She’s Keto for life.
Daisy’s latest extraordinary woman, Raeann, talks about how she traded her wheelchair for a bicycle and is finally leaving lipedema behind in the dust!
Raeann Sparks, BFA, BEd is a Teacher and Certified Keto Coach.
She first discovered Ketosis in 1972 when the Atkins Diet for Teens allowed her to overcome her stage one Lipedema to become a Lifeguard, Swim Coach and Professional Actor. But Lipedema fought back. Stage two drove her backstage to teach acting and direct her own Theatre School. In spite of low calorie diets, Lipedema then forced her out the stage door and into a city bus to drive and train bus drivers. Still struggling to outrun stage three Lipedema, Raeann eventually collapsed into a wheelchair with early osteoarthritis.
Diabetic, obese, and judged too fat for knee replacement, Raeann desperately googled “lumpy legs” and finally identified her foe, Lipedema. And, with the help of Dr Catherine Seo at LipedemaProject.org she rediscovered her old, familiar, Excalibur, the Ketogenic Way of Eating!
Once again, ketosis is overcoming Raeann’s Lipedema, and saving her mobility and health, by reversing her diabetes, obesity, and metabolic impairment. Now strong, mobile, mentally clear and energetic again, Raeann has traded her wheelchair for a bicycle and is finally leaving Lipedema behind in the dust! This is why she is so passionate about Keto Coaching others to achieve their own victories over Lipedema and its complications using the Ketogenic Way of Eating.
Raeann has completed the Professional Training in LCHF/Ketogenic Nutrition and Treatment with The Nutrition Network, an affiliate of The Noakes Foundation. She works with Lipedema-Simplified.org coaching women on how to live their best lives with Lipedema, Lymphedema, and Lipo-Lymphedema. If you suspect that you may have Lipedema, you can book a free consultation with Raeann, or her fellow coaches, at Lipedema-Simplified.org.
