Stop letting the "Purity Police" steal your progress. After nine years of living the ketogenic and carnivore lifestyle—and losing over 200 lbs combined—Joe and Rachel Stauffer are drawing a line in the sand. In this episode of 2KK Uncensored, we're getting raw about the "Keto Anxiety" that is ruining the community and why we've spent the last two years angry, stressed, and almost ready to quit.
We're reclaiming the Middle Ground. From the truth about grain-finished beef and "uncured" bacon to why Joe still drinks diet soda and why we use spices on our homestead, we're breaking down the 90% Rule. If you're tired of being policed by extremists and just want a lifestyle that is simple, sustainable, and effective for the real world, this episode is for you.
It's time to stop picking the pepper out of the poop and start living again.
In this episode, we discuss:
-
Why "perfection" is a metabolic stressor.
-
Navigating the real world (cruises, family reunions, and gas stations).
-
Why we are changing the direction of the 2 Krazy Ketos channel.
-
The launch of the "Don't Pick the Pepper" movement.
