Stay Off My Operating Table Keto Diet Rescued ex-Cop Eric Reynolds from Horrors of PTSD - #70
As a cop, Eric Reynolds maintained an active lifestyle, playing basketball and carrying weights. Nevertheless, he dealt with continual injuries.
When he saw himself in the documentary Cops and Cabins , he was shocked. He looked heavy and sick. He knew he had to make a change.
A friend who'd lost 50 pounds mentioned the ketogenic diet. He'd never heard of it. So, he researched what it was and how it worked, including meal planning and macros tracking. It made sense to him, so he decided to try it. In very little time, the weight began dropping away.
More than weight loss and physical changes though, he also experienced improvements in his mental health, perception, and emotional stability.
In this episode, the now-retired police officer talks about his struggles with PTSD and how the carnivore and ketogenic diets have given him a better life.
