Matt is the owner of a BBQ business and brand named Groarkboysbbq, which has amassed over 5 million followers across various platforms. He appeared on Season 2 of Gordon Ramsay’s Next Level Chef, showcasing his expertise in cooking meat. At the age of 45, he has been on cholesterol medication since his late 20s due to high triglycerides and has experienced a significant decrease in energy levels in recent years. Recognizing the need for a change and wanting to leverage his strengths in meat preparation, he embarked on the carnivore diet a week ago. He has committed to following this diet for at least 90 days, after which he plans to review and analyze the results. He notes that after seven days of no sugar and no carbs, he already feels less tired.
