Dr. Shawn Baker Podcast

Mike is a dietitian who has been living in the UK since 2014. His current job title is Advanced Specialist Dietitian. He has a background in sports science.

In the fourth quarter of 2020, Mike adopted a carnivore diet. Prior to that, he was obese, pre-diabetic, had irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and was taking selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). By following a very low-carb carnivore diet, he was able to reverse all of those health issues.

Mike currently works for the National Health Service (NHS), where he helps people put their diabetes, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), obesity, and gastrointestinal issues into remission. He primarily uses variations of low-carb diets to achieve these results.

Stepanka faced significant challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic. Previously active and involved in training, the sudden halt to her routine led to unexpected weight gain. Misconceptions about her struggle with anorexia added to her burden — people often assumed she could manage food well, but, in reality, her rigorous training had left her no time to eat, leaving her extremely hungry and malnourished. Confined at home and with ample opportunity to eat, Stepanka began consuming food all day, resulting in a weight gain of almost 30 kilograms over the course of two to three years.

Going on the carnivore diet, Stepanka saw benefits in stomach pain, acne, eczema, hair condition, weight, energy levels, and mental health.

Eddie has navigated a complex journey with his health that began at just 16 years old. After years of unexplained health issues including panic attacks, POTS symptoms, and neuropathy wrongly attributed to psychological factors, Eddie's own research led him to a diagnosis of craniocervical instability and hypermobile EDS. This discovery set him on a path to explore the profound impacts of diet on his condition.

Eddie shares his transformative experience with a carnivore diet and how it has played a role in his health and recovery and discusses the theories behind his dietary choices, the challenges and benefits of consuming a meat-based diet, and his critiques of the plant-based movement's claims.

Diego is a biological anthropologist who delves into the evolutionary aspects of human diversity, incorporating elements of Darwinism into his research. While his colleagues in cultural anthropology focus on studying cultural variations, Diego's expertise extends to biological variations — examining everything from genetic traits like double eyelids to biocultural differences among human groups. His particular specialty, which formed the foundation of his PhD, is the study of altruism. Diego's work aims to bridge the understanding of how evolutionary factors influence altruistic behaviors across different populations, enriching the field of anthropology with a deeper examination of biological and cultural intersections.

Diego has benefited from the carnivore diet. Watch the interview to find out how!
