Nutrition with Judy | Carnivore Diet
The Nutrition with Judy podcast is for people who are tired of surface-level wellness advice and want to understand what is really driving chronic symptoms, inflammation, metabolic dysfunction, gut issues, autoimmune patterns, and complex illness.
Hosted by Judy Cho, Board-Certified Holistic Nutritionist, functional medicine practitioner, and author of Inflammation Fix, the show explores root-cause healing through the lens of nutrition, environment, nervous system regulation, clinical pattern recognition, and personal responsibility.
Drawing from thousands of client cases, clinical insights, and conversations with leading experts in nutrition, psychology, medicine, and research, Judy breaks down complex health topics in a way that helps listeners become more informed, discerning, and self-advocating.
After rebuilding her own health through a carnivore elimination diet and a root-cause approach, Judy’s mission is to help people better understand their bodies and live the life they are meant to live, nearly symptom-free.
