Sugar Is A Sticky, Slippery Slope | Dr. Shawn Baker & Demetrios

Demetrios is currently in his fifteenth month of following the carnivore diet. Initially, he used raw honey with the comb as a substitute for sugar, which helped him gradually reduce his cravings for that harmful substance. However, around the second or third month, he started experiencing significant insulin spikes, sugar cravings, heartburn, and increased hunger even from consuming honey. As a result, he decided to stop using honey. At around the sixth-month mark, he experimented with incorporating fruit into his diet. He cooked a steak and added a cut apple to his meal, but he immediately felt unwell after consuming the apple. Since that experience, he has avoided both honey and fruit due to the negative effects they had on his body. Whenever he consumes honey or fruit, he notices a quick return of inflammation, pain, brain fog, and a complete lack of energy that lasts for at least 24 hours. Despite this, he still occasionally experiences cravings for honey, although he does not have the same desire for fruit.

Life-Saving Carnivore Journey? | Dr. Shawn Baker & Jenny

After a pre-cancer diagnosis in July 2021, Jenny embarked on a diet-based journey to improve her health. By September 2021, she had adopted a ketogenic and intermittent fasting lifestyle. However, the return of her cancer in January 2022 led her to undergo immunotherapy and switch to a carnivorous diet to address inflammation caused by the treatment. This dietary shift resulted in substantial health benefits. By December 2022, Jenny received her first benign biopsy since her cancer ordeal began in 2017, alongside improvements in her blood pressure, HgbA1C level, energy, joint pain, and arthritis symptoms.

Healing, Here's How | Dr. Shawn Baker & Douglas

Douglas is a sixty-seven-year-old retired healthcare professional who embarked on a successful weight loss journey after his mother's death. He lost around 70 pounds following a low-carb, intermittent fasting, and OMAD diet. Despite having normal A1C levels, his doctor insists he's diabetic due to his fasting glucose level. During this time, he was diagnosed with invasive bladder cancer and discovered a paraganglioma. After surgery and a challenging chemotherapy regimen, which included extended water-only fasts, his bladder and prostate were removed. Concurrently, he discovered a tumor on his right adrenal gland. The tumor was significantly reduced on Valentine's Day 2023. He currently follows a 90% carnivorous diet to help his adrenal gland recover and looks forward to his latest hormonal panel and CMP results.  See open positions at Revero: https://jobs.lever.co/Revero/ Join Carnivore Diet for a free 30 day trial: https://carnivore.diet/join/ Carnivore Shirts: https://merch.carnivore.diet Subscribe to our Newsletter: https://carnivore.diet/subscribe/ . ‪#revero #shawnbaker #Carnivorediet #MeatHeals #HealthCreation   #humanfood #AnimalBased #ZeroCarb #DietCoach  #FatAdapted #Carnivore #sugarfree  ‪

American Diabetes Association Will NOT Like This | Dr. Shawn Baker & Aaron K

Aaron is a husband and father of eight children. In his mid-forties, he was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure and was advised to take statin drugs. Despite dieting on and off for years, he had no real success in managing his conditions and kept getting sicker. When he searched the internet for help, he discovered that type 2 diabetes is a reversible disease, which surprised him since his doctor had never informed him of this. He became motivated to reverse his condition and that's when he found the carnivore diet. Within six months of following the carnivore diet, he had reversed his diabetes, lost over 30 pounds, and reversed his hypertension. As time passed, the list of benefits kept growing. Now, over a year later as of March 2023, he feels compelled to share his experience with others who might be in a similar situation. He has lost over 50 pounds and has been able to maintain a 5-day-a-week exercise routine despite his physically demanding job.
