Stephanie Is More Resilient Under Stress And Has Improved Digestion

This is Stephanie, and she's been eating keto-carnivore for two years. She is a type I diabetic and used to struggle with digestive issues, scalp psoriasis, and, since she was a kid, ADHD.

In 2014, Stephanie was diagnosed with IBS and was told to eat low FODMAP foods (fermentable carbs that can cause painful gas and bloating), take probiotics, and eat lots of fiber. Eating became very confusing for Stephanie as she tried to figure out what to eat. She would double over in pain from the gas and bloating after a meal full of veggie fiber.

Along with IBS, Stephanie's scalp psoriasis continued to flare. She stopped taking Adderall because of the side effects and experienced problems in school because of her ADHD. This continued for a few years before she would find a solution.

Stephanie started to wonder if she could live without plants and knew that "when I ate bacon and eggs and just ate meat, I didn't have any issues." So in March of 2018, Stephanie decided to participate in March Meatness and eat only meat for the month.

After a month of eating only meat—no plants—Stephanie declared, "I felt great." She noticed that her skin had cleared up and that her hair and nails had begun to grow. Because she saw benefits early on, Stephanie decided to continue eating only meat.

Over the next two years, Stephanie's scalp psoriasis and digestive issues resolved. She now doesn't need any digestive enzymes and declares that "everything works like clockwork." There is no painful bloating after eating, and my "pants fit after a meal."

Since going keto-carnivore, Stephanie can focus and concentrate in ways that she previously could not do without medication. She earned her associate's degree in Health and Fitness Science and is working on her bachelor's degree in Community Health.

In addition, Stephanie's insulin levels are very stable, and she "has minimal insulin needs now." Stephanie also credits her keto-carnivore diet for the great results when she exercises—she's gaining more muscle with weightlifting and has "good, steady energy."

Stephanie used to joke about wanting to eat cheeseburgers all the time, and although she doesn't eat dairy because it makes her insulin levels go up, she does get to have a burger every day.

She also remarks, "Who wouldn't love to eat a steak?" "That's most people's cheat meal, and that's my dinner!" Stephanie typically has eggs and bacon for breakfast, an 8 oz burger or chuck eye steak for lunch, and fish or steak for dinner.

Stephanie eats when she is hungry and eats until she is full. She recommends not eating a specific volume of food or eating based on the clock. For her, vegetables are "like a condiment" and are optional. This balance strategy has provided good function for her.


​She says that her life is worth living because of how good she feels and that "life is really good."

Rowan Improved Cardiovascular Health, Treated Arthritis

After struggling with weight loss and finding keto difficult to maintain, this person discovered the carnivore diet through Shawn Baker's Joe Rogan appearance in December 2017. They lost 36 pounds (from 216 to 180), eliminated arthritis in their left hand (which had a surgically reattached finger), normalized blood pressure from prehypertension, and experienced improved mental clarity and stress response.I was struggling trying to lose weight, and found keto so hard to stick to, so easy to fall off. I heard Shawn Baker on Joe Rogan and decided to look into it. I spent about 2 or 3 weeks checking out the info, and asking people on the Zeroing in on Health forum on Facebook numerous questions. After that, I was convinced it was worth trying keto-carnivore for a month. I began on the keto-carnivore diet on December 12th 2017. I've never even had to consider changing back. I was 216 lbs, and I am now 180. I had arthritis in my left hand, which hand had to have a finger surgically reattached to it after it was ripped off in an accident 13 years prior; but the arthritis went away after 2 weeks keto-carnivore. I had prehypertension, but my blood pressure (measured on three separate occasions) is normal. I feel better, I think clearer, and I respond to stress better than at any time in my life. ​I never intend to stop being a keto-carnivore.
