Stephen and I examine why standard lab markers like A1C, thyroid hormones, glucose averages, and antibodies can misrepresent health in carnivore and low-carb contexts. We break down physiological shifts in red blood cell lifespan, glycation, thyroid signaling, hydration, and electrolytes, and why symptom-based assessment often matters more than reference ranges.

Stephen is a UK-based coach, specialist in obesity and diabetes, and former private lab director with an honors degree in physiology and health sciences. After worsening health under conventional nutrition advice, he transitioned to low-carb and carnivore and has spent over a decade translating blood markers through a physiology-first lens. He writes daily science explainers and authored The Guide to Blood Tests in the Context of Keto, Carnivore, and Low Carb.

We discuss the following:

• All about Stephen Thomas
• Why A1C can rise on carnivore
• Red blood cell lifespan and A1C
• Physiology over reference range focus
• Adaptation vs. under-eating and thyroid dysfunction
• Women’s early carnivore challenges
• Stephen’s role in lab interpretation
• Harm of fear-based healing messages

Vitamin C is one of the most misunderstood nutrients in the carnivore space. This episode breaks down where vitamin C recommendations actually came from, why RDAs doubled in just 26 years, and how rising sugar intake likely drove that change. I share how glucose competes with vitamin C for absorption, why vitamin C was removed from modern nutrition labels, and why true deficiency is rare, even without fruits and vegetables.

I also address scurvy myths, the sailor paradox, breast milk’s low vitamin C content, and why many people thrive on a carnivore diet without supplementation. Finally, I cover when vitamin C may be appropriate (immune stress, adrenal strain, anemia, detox protocols) and why excess vitamin C can backfire by increasing oxalates and inflammation. 

Carnivore doesn’t fail because of a lack of vitamin C. But context, physiology, and restraint matter more than blanket supplementation. 

• History of vitamin C RDAs
• Sugar effects on vitamin C absorption
• FDA label changes removing vitamin C
• Vitamin C in meat diets
• Scurvy myths and sailor history
• Breast milk vitamin C levels
• Oxalates from excess ascorbic acid
• When vitamin C may help
• Dosing guidelines and supplement types

This episode shares six practical, experience-tested tips for starting or restarting a carnivore or meat-based diet in a way that actually supports healing, hormones, energy, and long-term success. Drawing from years of clinical work with thousands of carnivore clients and patients, Judy Cho explains why most people struggle because they under-eat, under-fuel with fat, mismanage electrolytes, or stack too many changes at once. The discussion shares carnivore as a therapeutic elimination diet, not a weight-loss gimmick, and emphasizes clarity of goals, symptom tracking, and personalization over dogma.

The episode covers how to define your “why,” eat enough food, prioritize fat as an energy source, manage electrolytes, navigate digestive and metabolic transitions, and use food-and-mood tracking to fine-tune results. It also introduces the H.O.M.E.S framework (Hormones, Output, Mood, Energy, and Sleep) as a simple way to evaluate whether this way of eating is moving you in the right direction. If you’re considering carnivore for weight loss, autoimmune issues, metabolic health, or chronic illness, this episode focuses on reducing unnecessary stress, avoiding common pitfalls, and building sustainable habits that respect your body’s signals rather than overriding them.

• Define your goals
• Make sure to eat enough
• Fat is not optional
• Electrolytes
• Digestion and the importance of transitions
• Eat the meats you enjoy while documenting in a food and mood journal
• Introducing H.O.M.E.S
• Resolution real talk
