I have hesitated for some time to submit my story. I think partly because I began a very low-carb diet in May 2017 before hearing about the Carnivore Diet challenge. I was aware of Amber O’Hearn and others avoiding plant foods. My husband and I had been vegan for just over five years before adding animal foods to our diet
I’ve been on this Carnivore diet for nearly two months now. Seeing how many pounds I lost my bother went on it too. I wasn’t hugely overweight but was heavier than ideal and struggling, at 38, to recover from marathon training. I was a bit scared to try this diet but due to severe and worsening stomach pain (with no
Hello, my name is Steve. I’ve had liver cirrhosis since mid-Nov. 2017. My body retained massive amounts of fluid (ascites). After the first few months of suffering while taking the prescription diuretics (pee medication) with no good results, I finally got an appointment for a paracentesis (fluid draining procedure). The fluid kept coming back, so we scheduled a paracentesis once
I have been low carb for about 16 years now, which has been great to maintain my weight and fitness. I have had Rumination syndrome my entire life, and just going low carb didn’t seem to help it at all. As I have gotten older I have started to develop GERD/heartburn-type symptoms also.

I remember seeing psoriasis on the back of my legs when I was a toddler, and throughout the years, it has flared up and even stayed on some embarrassing areas of my body, like my face. I also had asthma, which required me to
My Journey Into The Carnivore Lifestyle I’ve been approximately 90% carnivore for the last nine months. I’ll never forget the first time I came across the subreddit r/zerocarb. I read the group description and laughed at the part about not eating any plants. Unlearning Conventional Science I vividly remember telling myself, “These people are crazy…everyone knows we
I just wanted to share a simple story to help get the word out there. Back in 2006, I was diagnosed with endometriosis. I mentioned to the doctor that I thought I was too young (25y/o) to be diagnosed with that condition. She told me normally yes, but with all the hormones in food, it’s not surprising and that
Diagnosed With High-Functioning Autism Hey everyone, I’m not really autistic anymore, but I was before. When I was 18, I was diagnosed with high-functioning autism and had all the normal issues: sensory overload, trouble communicating, and temper problems. All standard autistic behavior. However, at times I had severe impairment. At times I could not speak for sometimes
Benefits Of The Carnivore Diet On Personal Health I’m pretty healthy. Always have been. I suppose I’m an example of the carnivore diet (mostly beef with salt) benefiting even those who are doing fairly well to begin with: Initial Health Concerns I started getting sweaty hands and feet around 18. I really started to notice how warm
I’m a 26-year-old male and have been chronically besieged by severe social anxiety since I was 13. The Dark Days Of Chronic Social Anxiety And Depression Interacting with anybody was a huge deal. I would have to fake my personality outside while feeling total mental pain and anguish. Eventually, the chronic social anxiety gave way to a strong unshakable
