From a lifetime of mental health issues to a new hope with Carnivore
My name is James. I am 27 years old and have suffered immensely from mental health issues since I was 6 years old. I was diagnosed with ADHD and put on psych medication in kindergarten. I also was depressed as a child, which progressed as I became a teenager. When I was 17, I was diagnosed with Bipolar and schizoaffective disorder. I am now 27 and have been hospitalized due to manic episodes over 200 times.
Turning to Carnivore
I came across the work of Dr. Shawn Baker and Dr. Chris Palmer. I began intermittent fasting and eating Carnivore, and within two weeks, my lifelong depression lifted. I also lost 25 pounds in those two weeks. I went from 270 pounds to 245. I had metabolic syndrome (high blood pressure, triglycerides, and blood sugar), and my labs have all normalized.
Carnivore lifestyle change
This is just the beginning of my journey, and I am so grateful. I have been on this diet for one month and plan to do it for the rest of my life. It’s not a diet; it’s a lifestyle. I also check my blood ketones daily to make sure I am in ketosis, usually between 3-5 ml.
Remission of mental health issues
All of my mental health issues have been put into remission as well as my lifelong psoriasis that covered my face and scalp.
Gratitude
Thank you, Shawn Baker, for having the courage to speak the truth. You have saved my life and the lives of future generations by sharing this knowledge. I plan to share my story to try and help heal others who are needlessly suffering. There are no words to express my gratitude.
