Episode Description
345: Can you get your period back in as little as 2 months on a carnivore diet? That's what happened to Bella Ma (AKA @SteakandButterGal on Instagram), who has over a million combined social media followers. She shares her story, carnivore recipes, and tips for the carnivore community as well as for those who are carnivore-curious. From being fully vegan to going fully carnivore overnight, Bella and I discuss how she cleared her eczema, regulated her hormones, reduced bloating, and lost weight by eating a high-fat carnivore diet. Our conversation covers some of the most controversial questions and topics surrounding the carnivore diet. We also dive into whether eating a stick of butter a day is something all women should do, tips for those considering a carnivore diet, how to navigate such a lifestyle with a family, and the pressures lurking on social media. Bella is such a sweet soul, and I am so honored to have her on as a guest today.
