Miriam Hatoum

Miriam Hatoum, also known as Granny Keto, began her low carb and keto journey in the summer of 2016, when she had her lightbulb moment listening to Gary Taubes’s Why We Get Fat and What to Do About It. Within a year her cholesterol, triglycerides, fasting insulin and blood sugar were all normal. She embarked on the path to becoming a certified health coach so that she could help other people in the most successful way possible. Her insight on what it takes to be successful – even when facing a pantry full of cookies and gummy bears – is evident in the Practical Applications and Mindfulness Practices in this book. Miriam holds M.A. and M.Ed. degrees and uses both in her three-pillar system for Breaking Free From Diet Prison: A Common Sense Approach to Keto and Low Carb. She and her husband are former owners of Sindbad Restaurant in New York, and you will find many Mediterranean-inspired recipes for keto and low carb on her website, MiriamHatoum.com.
