Steve Improved Dental Health, Digestion and Mental Health

Before I start, I sincerely want to thank Mikhaila and Jordan Peterson, Shawn and Zach, and Joe and Charlene Anderson for helping me get a much better understanding on what is going on with my body. Thank you for all you do and sharing your information!!

‍
A Lifetime of Health Struggles‍

As a 58-year-old male with horrible eating habits most of my life, I experienced numerous ailments from my teenage years to present day. These included trigger finger, loss of writing skills, and physical and mental breakdowns. I constantly sprained my ankles on any change in elevation and suffered from mysterious knee, foot, or hip pain that would last for months before suddenly disappearing.

My injuries seemed to happen from the simplest activities - I partially tore my deltoid ligament just running around bases and dislocated my sternum using light weights. I also dealt with a hiatal hernia, tooth decay, food intolerances, and outdoor allergies. Perhaps most challenging was my chronic fatigue syndrome, sleeping only 2-3 hours per night for years.

Despite various attempts at diet and exercise, I remained 30-40 pounds overweight throughout my adult life. My digestion was terrible - I had issues for over two decades that I won't go into detail about, but it was consistently problematic. I suffered from deep muscle tension causing spasms and chronic knots in my soft tissue, along with dizziness when standing that lasted over 18 months.

Eventually, I was diagnosed with spinal stenosis that couldn't be fixed and an arthritic hip that doctors said would need replacement.

The Keto-Carnivore Diet: Positive Changes Experienced‍

I started the keto-carnivore diet 18 months ago and began getting terrific results within 4-5 days. My diet was pretty clean before that, so I think my body responded quickly because I wasn't eating much junk food at that time.

For the last 12 months, I've been eating only ribeye and ground beef, which brought another big improvement. I also stopped using any spices and drink only water.

Remarkable Health Improvements on the Keto-Carnivore Diet‍

The transformation has been incredible. For the first time in over two decades, I've had no cavities during my last two dental appointments, despite having no enamel left on my teeth. I'm now playing golf once or twice a week, whereas 18 months ago I couldn't swing a golf club ten times. I've even returned to playing tennis for the first time in 3-4 years.

My sleep has dramatically improved - I now get two sleep sessions of 3-4 hours each night, which is way better than my previous 2-3 hours total. I exercise every day and have even started sprinting on the treadmill. My weight dropped from around 180 pounds to 145 pounds - I haven't been this light since college, and this has been the easiest, most satisfying diet I've ever been on.

My mental energy and focus have improved greatly. I can now sit for several hours in a chair without chronic back pain, whereas previously I couldn't sit for more than 20 minutes. My digestion has never been better - I can't remember the last time I needed toilet paper, compared to the past when I had constant digestive issues.

My hiatal hernia seems to be healing as my stomach wall continues to strengthen and shrink. Many of the knots and spasms in my soft tissue are nearly gone, though I still have some healing to do. The chronic inflammation in my feet has disappeared, and my sciatic and hip inflammation are almost completely resolved. My tennis elbow and arthritic right hand have significantly improved and continue getting better.

‍
Excitement for the Healing Process and Future‍

I'm far from what I would call completely healthy. I know my immune system is still weak, and I'm pretty sure I could still make myself quite sick eating soy sauce, whey, casein, and other problematic foods. But I'm really excited about this healing process and can't wait to see what the next six months will bring.

I'm sure there are many improvements I've missed mentioning. I'm so grateful I got a second chance. I really thought the last 20-30 years of my life were going to be filled with more misery if I lasted that long.

​Thanks Dr. Baker, I am dropping down now and giving you 20! Thanks for the inspiration!

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.
