Stay Off My Operating Table

This episode features the remarkable story of Mimi Morgan, a 70-year-old woman who overcame multiple severe health conditions through dietary changes. Despite battling rheumatoid arthritis, Parkinson's disease, and life-threatening infections, Mimi defied medical expectations and regained her health. For decades, Mimi followed trendy low-fat, plant-based diets, which she now believes contributed to her declining health. After being hospitalized multiple times and told she had little hope for recovery, Mimi decided to radically change her approach to food. She adopted a high-fat, low-carb diet, eventually transitioning to a carnivore and then a "lion diet" consisting primarily of animal products.Within months of changing her diet, Mimi began experiencing significant improvements in her symptoms. She was able to wean herself off all medications and regain her mobility and energy. Now at 70, Mimi feels healthier than ever before and is training to walk 500 miles across Spain.Mimi's story highlights the potential impact of nutrition on health and challenges conventional medical wisdom about managing chronic diseases. Her experience suggests that dietary changes may offer hope for some patients facing seemingly intractable health conditions.NOTABLE QUOTE"I'm just continuing training for my 500 mile walk and trying to, you know, share my story and hopefully give people hope, but especially the older ones, you know, the So many are told, I mean, I've heard it a gazillion times, you're over 60, of course this hurts. You know, you're over 60, of course you're on medication."#ChronicIllnessRecovery #nutritionandhealth  #highfatlowcarb  #HealingThroughDiet #OvercomingParkinsons #healthtransformation  #foodasmedicine  #carnivorediet Follow Mimi K.
