About this episode

Kristina shares her journey of using ketogenic therapy to help her daughter overcome bipolar disorder and advocates for nutrition as a treatment for mental health.

Kristina became passionate about metabolic therapies and the power of nutrition as both prevention and treatment for chronic illnesses and psychiatric conditions after witnessing her daughter achieve rapid remission from bipolar disorder through a whole foods ketogenic and then carnivore diet. Her family's remarkable health transformation using food as medicine inspired her to pursue further education in nutrition and metabolic health. As a dedicated advocate for these life-changing therapies, Kristina is committed to raising awareness, expanding access, and empowering others to take charge of their physical and mental well-being through dietary and lifestyle strategies.
