Hormonal imbalances affect millions of women in North America, and there’s a simple fix for many of these issues. That simple fix lies within what you’re fuelling your body with.
This is something today’s guest, Leanne Vogel, discovered when she stumbled across the ketogenic diet. This lifestyle change ended her 8-year struggle with amenorrhea (missing period), hypothyroidism, adrenal dysfunction and ultra-low hormones.
Leanne Vogel is one of the biggest keto influencers online today. With 120,000+ YouTube subscribers, and her own podcast ranking #3 in fitness & nutrition and #10 in all health podcasts on iTunes in the US and Canada, she’s a keto machine.
She also happens to be one of the biggest ambassadors of Perfect Keto, which she uses and loves, so I was excited to get to sit down and chat with her about her journey on keto and all of the ways she’s tweaked and refined the diet to suit her body over the past few years.
