n the latest episode of Carnivore Conversations, Dr. Kiltz sits down with Jake Thomas, host of

Sick, Scared, and Stupid, to explore his transformation from a disciplined Marine to a fitness

coach and carnivore advocate.

Jake opens up about losing his identity after military service, struggling with substances, and

how fitness and self-discipline kept him grounded. But the real shift came in 2020 when Jake

ditched vegan bodybuilding for a carnivore lifestyle—leading to radical improvements in his

health, mental clarity, and purpose.

Jake shares hard-hitting insights on why modern society keeps us weak, sick, and emotionally

attached to food, and how fasting, prioritizing self-care, and embracing simplicity can unlock

resilience and true freedom. He also discusses his current academic journey, infiltrating

conventional nutrition programs to ultimately reshape how we view health.
