ABOUT THIS EPISODE
📣 Traveling can throw off even the most disciplined ketogenic or carnivore routine — unless you have a system. Dr. Kristina Dobyns returns to Ketobiography with the toolkit she actually uses to stay stable, fed, and regulated no matter where she lands.
📋 Kristina first joined the show back in episode 29. This time, she came with a cheat sheet built around one theme: stability despite moving variables. From electrolyte strategies and sleep protection to what's actually in her travel bag, this episode is a full walkthrough of how she stays grounded — physically and mentally — through flights, time zones, and unfamiliar kitchens. She also shares an update on an idea she first mentioned in her last appearance: a retreat that's now real.
🔑 What You'll Learn
- Why salt and electrolytes are a daily non-negotiable, and how to travel with them
- How morning sunlight and blue light control support sleep and circadian rhythm across time zones
- How to eat well on the road: booking a kitchen, stocking staples, packing shelf-stable food
- What's in her travel sensory kit, and why each piece matters
- The skill of knowing when to disconnect versus stay connected
💡 "Don't let perfect be the enemy of good... it's not about never being off — it's how quickly you can practice coming back to center." — Dr. Kristina Dobyns
