Cake to Carnivore: Healing Lupus & Prediabetes
Welcome to *Ketobiography* — formerly *Less of Me Success Stories*. In this transformative episode, we’re joined by **Denitra Davis**, a powerhouse coach, advocate, and educator in the low-carb space. Through her personal battle with lupus, eczema, pre-diabetes, gout, and fatigue, Denitra found radical healing by removing sugar and shifting toward a ketogenic and carnivore lifestyle.
From childhood sugar addiction to a failed attempt at plant-based living, Denitra exposes the hidden dangers of “healthy” foods, the broken medical advice system, and how real nutrition saved her life. Now a certified coach with the Society of Metabolic Health Practitioners and the Nutrition Network, she empowers others to take back their health — one label, one lab, and one meal at a time.
This is more than a keto journey. It’s a story of awakening, advocacy, and purpose.
