A Dietitian's Case for Low Carb Nutrition | Michelle Hurn

from Ketobiography

📣 A registered dietitian who nearly died from an eating disorder at age 12 is now one of the most compelling voices for low carb nutrition and metabolic health. Michelle Hurn's journey from patient to advocate is as practical as it is powerful.📋 Registered dietitian, author, and ultra-endurance athlete Michelle Hurn joins Ketobiography to share her journey from recovering from an eating disorder to transforming nutrition advocacy. She dives into her work in metabolic health, her fight against conventional dietary dogma, and her innovative projects — like the Protein Project — bringing real nutrition to food banks. This episode explores radical honesty, the need for grassroots change, and what anyone can do to support true nourishment in their communities.🔑 What You'll LearnWhy mainstream nutrition guidelines often fail patients and what actually supports metabolic health — including reversing type 2 diabetes in weeks, not yearsHow Michelle's own health crisis in 2019 led her from a high-carbohydrate diet to carnivore and ketogenic eating, reversing lifelong anxiety and chronic painThe story behind the American Diabetes Society — an independent nonprofit with no ties to big food or pharma — and how it differs from the American Diabetes AssociationHow the Protein Project is getting regenerative beef and canned protein into food banks, and how anyone can replicate this locallyWhy radical honesty about where your health actually stands is the first and most important step toward real change💡 Key Insight"First, take care of you. Make sure you are a mentally stable, physically healthy human — that's going to reflect to your family. Then look at your community. If everyone did a little bit, it would make a huge impact." — Michelle Hurn🌐 Connect with Michelle HurnWebsite: https://www.thedietitiansdilemma.netInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/runeatmeatrepeatX: https://x.com/MichelleHurnRD⚕️ This podcast is for informational and educational purposes only and is not medical advice; always consult a qualified healthcare professional about your own health decisions.⏳ Chapters00:47 Introduction & Michelle's background04:47 Surviving and healing from eating disorders12:47 Leaving conventional nutrition to challenge dogma18:47 The connection between metabolic health and mental health25:47 Building the American Diabetes Society's new mission32:47 Real-life impact: Protein Project and food bank nutrition44:47 How listeners can get involved with advocacy48:47 Individualized nutrition for athletes and diabetics52:47 Radical honesty and grassroots cultural change56:47 Final thoughts and how to start your journey🎧 New episodes drop every Thursday on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and all major platforms.🌱 Know someone with a keto success story?
