He Fainted; They Said It Was "Normal" | Dr. Shawn Baker & Josh K

Coach Josh K, currently 29 years old, resides in the Des Moines, IA area but originally hails from Sioux City. Josh is a licensed Physical Therapist Assistant, employed in a skilled nursing/long-term care setting. During his upbringing, he struggled with obesity, adhering to the standard American diet until his early 20s, which led him to reach a weight of up to 330 lbs.

Josh's health began deteriorating around the age of 20, experiencing symptoms such as sleep apnea, lightheadedness, dyspnea, anxiety, and low self-esteem. However, as he matured, he started making better choices, adopting a whole food diet. Despite successfully shedding excess weight, he discovered that not all his health issues improved. He continued to suffer from worsening thoracic spine arthritis pain, increased occurrences of low back nerve impingement and radicular pain, energy fluctuations, and gastrointestinal bloating and gas problems.

Driven by a desire to find a solution, Josh initially turned to the ketogenic diet. Shortly after, he transitioned to a carnivorous diet, which proved to be transformative. With this dietary shift, he experienced minimal pain, a consistent and steady energy level, and relief from gas and bloating issues. Moreover, he noticed improved exercise performance and an increase in muscle mass, serving as additional benefits to his overall well-being.
