Keto, Minerals, and Midlife: Rewriting the Cancer and Burnout Story | Dori Martin

📣 When Dori Martin's husband was diagnosed with stage 4 gastric cancer, they were handed a prognosis and not much else. What followed was a deep dive into therapeutic ketogenic diets that outlasted the timeline his doctors had given him.📋 Dori is a functional nutrition practitioner — but her path there wasn't linear. Burnout, disordered eating relapse, and debilitating menopausal symptoms were her own uninvited teachers. In this conversation she walks through how therapeutic keto, mineral balancing through Hair Tissue & Mineral Analysis, and some genuinely simple lifestyle shifts helped her husband beat the odds and helped her find her way back to herself — and to food as something other than a battleground.🔑 What You'll LearnHow a stage 4 gastric cancer diagnosis led to therapeutic keto and an outcome that defied the original prognosisWhy burnout, stress, and perimenopause can make clean eating and exercise stop working — and what to look at insteadHow removing sugar, gluten, and refined carbs can shift disordered eating patterns by stabilizing blood sugarWhat Hair Tissue & Mineral Analysis reveals about adrenal burnout, thyroid health, detox capacity, and energy productionHow pairing keto with mineral balancing and lifestyle habits can support cancer recovery, metabolic health, and menopausal symptoms💡 Key Insight"Food is truly the best medicine.
