A 30 year eating disorder drove her from 70 lbs to 220 lbs, through anorexia, sepsis, and back to healing with carnivore. In episode 894 of the Savage Perspective Podcast, host Robert Sikes sits down with Mary Ann Peters for a raw story of food noise, restriction, weight loss, weight gain, recovery, and faith. Mary Ann shares how childhood shame, years of disordered eating, and not eating enough on carnivore hurt her health, and how changing her nutrition helped her heal. This Savage Perspective Podcast episode covers eating disorder recovery, keto, carnivore, healing, mental health, body image, and learning to eat for strength, peace, and a better life.
