Keto/Carnivore Conversations

145. Dr. Nelson Vazquez: From Stroke to Strength. Dr. Nelson Vazquez on Reversing Disease, Rethinking Medicine & Rediscovering Faith


Listen Later

In this riveting episode, Dr. Nelson Vazquez shares his extraordinary journey from a 325-pound diabetic on seven medications and 300 units of insulin a day—to a vibrant, medication-free advocate for carnivore nutrition and metabolic healing. After surviving a stroke and facing macular edema, Dr. Vazquez turned to ancestral eating, eliminating plant toxins and ultra-processed foods to reclaim his health and vitality.

He and Dr. Kiltz dive deep into the failures of modern medicine, the dangers of dietary dogma, and the spiritual and emotional clarity that comes with radical lifestyle change. With humor, humility, and decades of clinical insight, Dr. Vazquez challenges everything we think we know about nutrition, disease, and healing.

🧠 Topics include:

  • Reversing diabetes, hypertension, and neuropathy through carnivore

  • The myth of fiber, greens, and “healthy” plant-based diets

  • Why most doctors never study food—and why that must change

  • The role of coaching, community, and storytelling in healing

  • How processed foods became the silent epidemic

  • Faith, family, and the power of personal transformation

  • What to buy at the market—and what to throw out today

This episode is a masterclass in metabolic truth-telling. Whether you're a patient, practitioner, or parent, Dr. Vazquez’s story will inspire you to question everything—and take back your health, one bite at a time.
