Breast Reduction Journey: Why Water Isn’t Enough

Updated: Aug 1

If you've ever been told to “drink more water after surgery,” you're not alone — but you might also be missing something essential. In this episode, Shelley Beyer brings clarity to what hydration really means, especially for women recovering from breast reduction on a Carnivore or Keto lifestyle.


Shelley gently explains how our bodies lose vital minerals like sodium, potassium, and magnesium more quickly on low-carb diets — and why plain water often isn’t enough to help you feel better.


With her usual warmth and honesty, she offers simple, empowering strategies to support healing: adding sea salt, sipping broth, and using electrolytes with care.

Hi, I'm Shelley Beyer.

I’ve been through breast reduction surgery myself, and I’m here to support other women on that same path—before surgery, after surgery, and in the everyday healing that comes after.

I believe in reducing inflammation through a carnivore way of eating, preparing the body with intention, and creating space for the emotional, physical, and spiritual recovery this journey invites.

 

If you're navigating your own transformation, I’m so glad you're here.
