In 2017 I began feeling constant pain in my left shoulder. I surf regularly but had to stop all together because I couldn’t paddle anymore. In October of 2018 I decided to try 30 days of the carnivore diet and ended up going almost two months. I noticed a reduction in pain about five days in and reduced inflammation not just in my shoulder but throughout my entire body.
At two weeks I could swim with mild pain. At three weeks I could swim and sprint without pain but would feel minor discomfort when I slept. I went surfing the fourth week and have had zero shoulder pain or inflammation since.
Tim: Carnivore Diet and Heart Health Transformation
For Tim, a 53-year-old IT management consultant living in the Netherlands, turning 50 in 2023 was a violent wake-up call. For decades, his career required near-constant travel—four days a week living out of hotels, experiencing deeply disrupted sleep, and consuming a standard corporate diet heavily laden with fast food, seed oils, alcohol, and refined sugar.
