Struggling With A Weak Immune System And Chronic Colic When I entered this world, I was an unhappy baby (diagnosed with chronic colic), which meant I barely stopped crying for the first six months of my life. As I got older, it became apparent that I had a weakened immune system. I seemed to pick up anything and
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

My name is Gabby, and I’m a 40-year-old female new to the carnivore diet. Here’s my story: A Little Back Story I have always had thyroid issues since my 20s (Graves disease and Hashimotos). I was on several medications, and nothing worked. In 2010, I listened to my doctors and had a complete thyroidectomy, a decision I regret
I started having problems with my blood sugar right after I had my first baby. I was diagnosed as a gestationally diabetic while carrying. I was given no advice or follow-up after having her. Within two to three months later, I was constantly dizzy, hot, my heart would start beating out of my chest, shaky, hyperventilating, and I’d feel
Since I was about 10ish years old, I’ve had issues with food-related illnesses. At first, it was random sickness after eating or little desire to eat. By the time I was 15, I full on could not eat a solid meal. Two bites in, and I was SICK! It was awful because I was hungry and knew I had
Hello, my name is Hilary. Let me tell you about what the carnivore diet did for me after years of ill health. Starving but still overweight I started struggling with my weight when I was a teenager.
