He Blew His Dentist's Mind | Dr. Shawn Baker & John L

John, a 58-year-old from King of Prussia, PA, stands 5 feet 10 inches tall. After living in Maryland for 13 years, he moved to Boca Raton, FL in 2001. John, known as the "Carnivore Teacher" on YouTube, retired after 34 years of teaching Middle School subjects like Language Arts, Social Studies, and Video Production. He transitioned to a keto diet 4.5 years ago for weight loss, adjusted to Ketovore due to health issues, and then to a full carnivore diet, excluding even coffee. His diet predominantly consists of two meals a day, mainly beef, eggs, and lamb. John exercises daily, cycling at sunrise and walking at sunset, alongside lifting weights five times a week. This lifestyle switch led him to shed 35-40 pounds, gain muscle, and achieve numerous health improvements such as resolving lower back pain, managing Atrial Fibrillation, enhancing emotional health, and eliminating OCD tendencies. He now boasts improved skin, teeth, gum, and sleep quality, and his key health indicators, like HbA1C and triglycerides, have significantly improved.

Don't Let Fruit Derail You | Dr. Shawn Baker & Marina

In her early 20s, Marina began grappling with gastrointestinal issues, prompting her to explore various diets like gluten-free, dairy-free, Paleo, and Whole 30. While these diets offered some relief, she still struggled, particularly with a sugar addiction. Upon discovering the Carnivore diet through Shawn Baker, Marina decided to give it a try. The results were transformative: not only did she lose 15 pounds, but she also observed marked improvements in her sleep, hearing, sense of smell, brain fog, nausea, sinus issues, minor health concerns, and most profoundly, her depression. However, in 2020, influenced by online communities, Marina reintroduced carbs, including wholesome ones like fruits and sourdough bread. This led to rapid weight gain and a decline in liver health. Recognizing the setback, she resolved to revert to a low-carb approach, finding the best results with the Carnivore diet.

Going On The Carnivore Diet Out Of Convenience | Dr. Shawn Baker & Mitch

Diagnosed with Hodgkins lymphoma in February 2001, Mitch underwent rounds of chemo and radiation therapy, emerging with remission by late summer of the same year. 2002 presented another challenge with the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure. The year 2015 was marked by a significant health event when Mitch underwent a quadruple bypass, an experience that reiterated the importance of health and well-being. However, as an insulin-dependent individual, Mitch was always on the hunt for sustainable ways to manage his health. Taking control of his nutrition, Mitch embarked on a keto-style diet in September 2017. His journey into dietary exploration took a sharp turn when he began leaning towards a mostly carnivorous diet in 2018, primarily driven by convenience. Commitment to his health goals only intensified in 2020 when he made a conscious decision to adopt a strict carnivore diet, focusing on beef, salt, and water.
