Jim Lowered His Triglycerides And Blood Pressure

Jim’s Full Account on a Keto-Carnivore Diet‍

Going keto-carnivore has brought an astonishing change to my life. Today I enjoy the kind of energy I have not felt for three decades, and the inflammation that once bloated every joint has vanished. Six surgical clean-outs and a major ACL repair left my knee aching nonstop from 1985 onward, yet now it feels pain-free. Eighteen months ago I also received a hip replacement; after the operation and the switch to keto-carnivore I moved from a largely sedentary existence to a summer filled with new feats. I have already reached the summits of three mountains on foot, and I have taken up rowing sculls on Calgary’s reservoir.

My blood pressure, which hovered in the high one-fifties over nineties, now rests at a steady 120 over 70. Triglycerides have fallen by fifty percent. HDL cholesterol has climbed while LDL has dropped, and the scale has shrunk from 305 pounds to 225 pounds, a total loss exceeding eighty pounds. Tasks I considered impossible a year and a half ago—such as prolonged hikes, rowing sessions, or casual strength work—now fit easily into my weekly routine. Muscle develops without focused effort, the by-product of densely nourishing food rather than relentless training.

When I arrived for my annual physical, the family doctor who has monitored me for thirty-two years barely recognized me. He once warned me, in as many words, that I carried too much weight. After a year lost to COVID restrictions, I stepped into his office at my lightest weight in three decades. He measured my blood pressure, stared at the gauge, and released a rare “Wow,” noting the reading of 120⁄70 when historical charts showed 145⁄85 or 150⁄90. Laboratory work confirmed the dramatic plunge in triglycerides, the rise in HDL, and the fall in LDL; every blood marker improved.

Constant hunger, which previously drove me to graze all day long, has disappeared. I eat when truly hungry and feel satisfied for hours afterward. My progress also holds special meaning because I survived chronic lymphocytic leukemia, diagnosed in 2011. Treatment in 2013 combined a lab-engineered antibody with chemotherapy, and for seven years no cancer cells have appeared in my blood.

​The keto-carnivore diet has accomplished more than restoring numbers on a chart. It has replaced chronic soreness with strength, traded fatigue for vigor, and returned a future in which mountain peaks and long rowing strokes feel not only possible but exhilarating.
