This is my EPIC conversation with Lierre Keith, author of The Vegetarian Myth. I was starstruck. And so very thankful for her sharing her story. I KNOW you’ll find a ton of value in it! Thank you to everyone who was able to attend live, we had a great showing!
In this conversation, Lierre walks us through her journey starting with her decision to go vegan, what her 20 year experience was like, the symptoms she experienced, her transition back to eating meat, and so much more!
Main Symptoms As you watch this conversation, here are the main symptoms she experienced, and relatively early on, for you to pay attention to

- degeneration of muscle, bone, and connective tissue
