Michael, a 55-year-old long-haul trucker, banished crippling GERD, hand arthritis, depression and a lifetime of weight gain after switching from diner food to a strict keto-carnivore regimen.

Eric, 63, suffered a heart attack in 2007, hypertension, obesity, severe psoriasis, neuropathy, depression and “statin shuffle” until switching from a low-fat, plant-heavy diet to two years of low-carb-high-fat and then one full year of strict keto-carnivore eating. Every major symptom—chronic foot pain, psoriasis, facial redness, eye bags, bloating—vanished; triglycerides plummeted so dramatically that his cardiologist removed an 80 mg lifelong statin. Eric now works construction, hikes pain-free and is training to thru-hike the Appalachian Trail at 65.

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.
