Mikhaila Peterson has officially coined her version of the carnivore diet: The Lion Diet. Strictly sticking to ruminant meat, salt, and water cured Mikhaila of her autoimmune issues back in 2018. Most recently, she's been experimenting with multi-day intermittent fasting as another lifestyle and nutritional intervention. While Mikhaila initially targeted for fat loss, she also found that fasting was a profound tool for mental health and emotional stability. What else happens when a carnivore embarks on a 7-day fast? Let's find out. In this episode, Geoff and Mikhaila discuss: 7-Day Fasting: Experience, biomarker data, lessons learned, and tips & tricks The carnivore diet and how it may have affected Mikhaila's microbiome (resulting in C.
