Kem Minnick - The World's 1st Carnivore Swedish Bikini Chef - #82

A yoga instructor and professional equestrian turned personal trainer, Kem Minnick noticed a decline in her physical and health after years of veganism.

Her personal quest for health revealed the importance of tryptophan, which is necessary for the production of serotonin in the brain. She realized that insufficient serotonin was a  root cause of her chronic physical ill-health and lack of mental clarity.
