Carnivore for Depression: A Family's Full Transformation | Christy Kriese (Replay) - Ketobiography | Lyssna här

📣 Two years ago, Christy Kriese was bedridden, unable to leave the house, and unsure she'd ever feel like herself again. Today, she's back to share what's changed — for her, and for almost her entire family.

📋 A return guest from the show's earliest days as Less of Me Success Stories, Christy Kriese joins Robyn for a reunion conversation covering the two years since her original appearance. They dig into what happens when medications are tapered too quickly, how a strict carnivore approach became the turning point in her recovery, and how that recovery rippled out to her husband, her son, her son-in-law, her daughter, her grandkids, and her brother-in-law — each finding their own version of healing along the way.

🔑 What You'll Learn

How a rushed medication taper led to a mental health crisis and four different drugs in four weeks
Why cyclical depression is different from a bipolar diagnosis, and how that distinction got missed
The first physical signs of healing Christy noticed after starting carnivore, and how quickly they showed up
How her husband's degenerative eye disease has improved over two years on carnivore
Why feeling well, not tracking numbers, has been her most reliable guide throughout

💡 Key Insight

"I have zero cravings for anything ever. It becomes like a finely tuned — this is just what you do — thing. Like showering, brushing your teeth." — Christy Kriese
