Alia's experience with health issues and her journey to recovery is both compelling and inspiring. She suspects she suffered from endometriosis, a condition characterized by menstrual irregularities. Her struggles extended to sleep disturbances, intense food cravings, persistent back pain, and an unhealthy obsession with food and weight, leading to obesity. Remarkably, a c-section scar that troubled her for five years, causing itchiness and sometimes producing pus, began to heal within two months of adopting a carnivore diet. Furthermore, this dietary change has significantly alleviated her dermatitis, a condition that caused her immense discomfort for many years.
