"Carnivore Diet Saved Me From Autoimmune Hell." And More Amazing Results Examined.
We are being poisoned and lied to, and you can prove this on your own. Eat carnivore for 6 weeks. We triple dog dare ya.
Aloha fellow problem solvers!
If you would like to see the most obvious and provable way that we are being lied to, let’s pull back the curtain on our food supply. Our foods are being filled with chemicals and sprayed with toxins. Then, the least nutritious and most dangerous of the foods are being recommended to us by doctors, scientists, and government agencies, while the most nutritious are being suppressed, smeared, and colluded against.
We are getting unhealthier. Heart disease, cancers, and instances of autoimmune disorders are skyrocketing. Mental illnesses - especially clinical anxiety and depression are in perpetual rise.
If as a society we adhered to the code that results matter most (which is probably the most important cultural shift our society could make right now to heal itself) then we should be alarmed, honest, and proactive about all of this disease.
What is causing all of this suffering?
We believe that we all can discover a big part of the answer to this question starting right now. We do so independently by trying to replicate a simple experiment, together. That’s right, you and all of us here.
We eat nothing but ruminant meat for 6 weeks and report back on how it goes for each of us.
Contrary to popular opinion, “science” isn’t a bunch of studies conducted with hidden datasets by some corrupted aristocrats working for a fancy college. And “science” isn’t a study funded by the same agenda-driven people who are trying to sell a product (or a competing product) that they are testing. No, science is simply this: Can the experiment be independently replicated? That’s it.
As we said before, journalized peer-reviewed science is the biggest failed science experiment of all time. It’s dead. (Did you know it was created by the shadowy figure Robert Maxwell, Ghislaine Maxwell’s (Jeffery Epstein’s partner in crime) father? Read more HERE.) We need to decentralize science, and put it on blockchain. If you can independently replicate an experiment at home along with millions of others, that is worth much more than anything peer-reviewed through the centralized gate keepers of corrupted journals.
For example, how many peer-reviewed papers did Einstein have published? Any? Does it matter? His discoveries can be independently replicated. In fact if they weren’t being independently replicated right now then you wouldn’t be reading this on this medium. Same thing is true with something like Maxwell’s equations. Independently replicated millions - no billions - of times.
That’s science.
Nullius in verba. Let’s put it to the test. It’s not that hard if you have a little self discipline, and a curiosity and desire to grow and help others.
We challenge you to do six weeks of strict carnivore diet and report back with transparency here. Preferably lion diet - which is just beef, salt and water. That means no condiments, no sides, and no seasoning. There will be a stomach transitional period where you might feel flu-like for the first week. It is an electrolyte issue that can be eased with Potassium and Magnesium electrolytes. Otherwise be strict - for science.
Also if it is a deal breaker - keep your black coffee for now. Unless you have clinical anxiety then we highly recommend stopping caffeine too. Also, if you’re doing this for autoimmune, we suggest cutting it out too, along with all supplements and unnecessary medications (most people that try this diet eventually find out that most of their medications fall into this category- unnecessary).
We especially challenge you to this 6 week challenge if you are chronically sick in any way. Even if it doesn’t work it will be valuable information to others.
We have personally seen dozens of people who beat type-2 diabetes, MS, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Gout, IBS, Ulcerative Colitis, Crohn’s, Psoriasis, Chronic Anxiety, Clinical depression, bipolar disorder, brain fog, high blood pressure, sleeping disorders, skin issues, and nearly all autoimmune disorders (see photos below). If you know someone with one of these diseases - what are you waiting for?
We can pull back the curtain on all of these corrupt systems that are governing over our lives, starting with the colluding monoliths that sell most of our food, and their lying attack dogs at the FDA.
If you accept the 6 week carnivore challenge please take part in this survey after you completed it so we can use the information to help each other. If you have already been doing this diet for longer than 6 weeks please answer the survey based on your first 6 weeks only (as best as you can remember them). We will have another survey for long term carnivores soon.
Here is the 6 week survey: LINK.
We are being poisoned with seed oils, soy, processed foods, sugars, wheats, and chemicals by the very people who are supposed to be guarding our systems. Have the courage to see if what we are telling you is truth.
But first, let’s start off with receipts from some of our friends who already took the challenge or have switched over to this WOE (way of eating).
We can start with George’s brain scan for MS. After being bedridden and having no bladder control he started strict carnivore almost three years ago. Since then his brain scans came back each time better than the last. Two and a half years of strict carnivore and his brain lesions are now gone - his brain remyelinated.
HIS BRAIN NOW:
“This is how it was going vs how it is now. The first photo (left) would've been sometime in 2020 before my diet and lifestyle switch. Judging by the visible inflammation and discomfort on my face I was still on gabapentin and those toxic chemo infusions for MS. Carnivore works. I have my life back.” - George Vahamonde
Or we can talk to our friend Mustafa who lost 100+ pounds and stopped his chronic gout - by eating meat. He isn’t comfortable sharing photos but like many of the testimonials in this article, we know him personally. We also know that people who didn’t see him in a year didn’t recognize him because he had lost so much weight.
“At the age of 50 and falling apart I figured: why not!! In the beginning it was tough! Carb addiction is real. I had a few instances of gout attacks in the 1st few months. But thankfully the carnivore community encouraged me to continue through. Eventually I eliminated Gout attacks and have only experienced 2 since starting the diet. Both occurred when consuming something other than meat.
At present I've eliminated gout without medication, Gastric reflux is gone ,sleep apnea is under control, edema of the lower extremities is gone. Swelling of joints has gone down except when I stray from meat. Irrational Anger and depressive moods- gone. Clear thought and energy to do stuff is now my norm. Skin tags on my neck…. Gone. Lost 100lbs +. FOOD COMA (THE ITIS) IS GONE.
A couple of my kids were so impressed with my change they have now adopted Carnivore WOE (and are elite world-class athletes). There’s stuff with my health that has been resolved through this WOE that I’ve forgotten I had. I’ve been sending screenshots of recent bloodwork to naysayers with the historical graphs showing the changes that have occurred eating FATTY GREASY BEEF. It’s almost unbelievable.”
Or let’s chat with our 30 year old friend Lynne Huffnagle who is off all of her meds for Ulcerative Colitis, clinical depression and more.
Starting weight 160 5/9/22 Current weight 130 1/2/23
“I started the diet May 9th 2022 and I was only going to do it for 30 days. I discovered the diet watching Mikahila Peterson tell her story online. Before the trial, I was hopeless. My ulcerative colitis medication was not working and my condition was getting bad. 30 days on carnivore and my ulcerative colitis was healed. (still felt weak though). Day 90 I cleaned up my diet even more, made it more strict. (Was still cheating eating/drinking fake sugars, drinking coffee, beef jerky, store bought bone broth). Added potassium, magnesium and Vit D and felt stronger than I ever had.” - Lynne Huffnagle

“I was only going to do this for 30 days and now this is my life. It was extremely hard in the beginning, but once I got a taste of what health really feels like, I never ever want to go back.” - Lynne H
“I was diagnosed with severe Ulcerative Colitis / Crohn’s disease at 23 years old. I lost 40lbs and was barely strong enough to get out of bed for months. Medications helped at first, but they were causing severe damage to my liver.
I went on a high-fat carnivore diet, stopped my medications, and put a flare into remission with the diet alone. Healing was not a straight path and I had my doubts along the way, but today I’m 29 and I have my life back under control, free from dependence on a broken medical system.” - Chris Ricciardi - Instagram: @cr_nvore - Email: chrispricciardi@gmail.com
“The first pics are of the horrible psoriasis I suffered with my entire life. The next set of pics are my legs now after changing my diet. Yes I said it. Nothing different other than changing the diet. Weird right? No drugs, no ointments, no creams… it’s crazy having multiple dermatologists tell me “diet has no affect on psoriasis, but here are a few prescriptions that will help” -UFC fighter Chad Mendes @chadmendes
“Eating a diet that consists of only animal products not only allowed me to finally lose the extra 120 pounds that I couldn’t lose any other way, but it also lowered my inflammation scores, stopped all of the boils that I had been plagued with, ended two years of amenorrhea, and allows me to feel satiated and happy, which was a struggle on any other diet. I sincerely love the foods that I get to eat on a carnivore diet, and even better, I love how I feel.” -Kelly Hogan (find her here, here and here)
“On Carnivore I effortlessly lost 30lbs in less than 12 weeks. As a result I saw improved sleep, decreased body wide inflammation, improvement in my labels (my chronic health diagnoses), and improved mental acuity. Quickly - and I mean very quickly - I saw improvement overall. This lifestyle will change your life for the better.” - Amanda Englert - Functional Practitioner and a Board Certified Family Nurse Practitioner. (If you want help on this journey, she would be delighted to assist). Instagram: @functional_amanda
“The main things Carnivore resolved for me are Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, severe IBS, sleep apnea, and significant improvements in anxiety/depression. There's a list longer than my arm of other more minor improvements and there's really not any single aspect of my life that hasn't gotten better since I changed my diet.” - Will Oliver

“I lost 43 years of chronic depression with psychotic features, chronic anxiety & insomnia eating only meat drinking only water.” - Brett lloyd - Thankful Carnivore on Instagram here.
“February 24th is my 4 year Carniversary! I beat Multiple Sclerosis & Bipolar Disorder with Carnivore, and well you can see the result in my photo. I do my best to help coach others on the same journey. Please come say hi on Instagram here.” - Emily Penton
Here is an in depth podcast with Emily Penton and one of our regular writers who also beat his autoimmune issues, Josh Ketry:
Many people lose weight when on carnivore. But for some people, they need to gain weight to reach their optimal health metrics. Rebekah Heishman is one such example of that success.
“The carnivore diet played a huge role in helping me to reverse over 10 autoimmune diseases, chronic lyme disease, and a chronic CDiff infection that almost took my life. I also suffer no more mood disorders, digestive issues, sleep issues. I have total food freedom! Now that I have healed and sealed my gut I can consume other foods without reactions or any issues.. But at the end of the day would I crave is meat! I truly believe that there is nothing uncurable when we choose to support the body at a systemic level.” - Rebekah Heishman read more on her here.
“I began my weightloss journey in 2018 by following a strict ketogenic diet, as recommended by Dr. Annette Bosworth (YouTube's Dr. Boz). In 2020 I reached my goal weight of 132 pounds (I lost 135!!) and began eating a Carnivore diet exclusively. I like the Carnivore diet because it's simple and I'm lazy. By eating Carnivore I easily maintain my weight loss and my muscle mass. I do best by tracking my food and I aim for 144 grams of protein a day, 130 grams of fat and no more than 14 grams of carbs. I eat exclusively animal foods: mostly beef, lamb, pork, chicken, turkey, veal and seafood. I sometimes use dairy as a condiment but it really triggers cravings to eat more so I tend to avoid dairy myself.” -Nichole Wilde Hart
“Carnivore diet has changed my life in many ways. One of the best things it did for me was give me an immense amount of energy to keep up with my son! I also no longer have the addiction to food like I had in the past. The confidence I have gained over this journey has really opened me up to the best version of myself.” -Hannah Oney Komay
“I started off my journey at 310lbs, I began doing keto because my doctors felt that my weight may have been contributing to my failing health. I had been using a wheelchair anytime I had to leave the house and had lost about 75% of the mobility in my hands due to inflammatory arthritis. After losing 90lbs and 6 months of physical therapy I was still not getting much better health wise. I stumbled upon the carnivore diet while listening to nutrition podcasts. After the first month of carnivore I was able to use stairs again without pain, take walks, and after a couple of months regained full use of my hands. Eventually I was able to get off all 12 of the medications I was on including nerve blockers, immunosuppressants, non opioid pain meds, stimulants for fatigue, and mental health medications. I now believe that I did not have the several autoimmune diseases or the mental health disorder I was diagnosed with and my issues were food sensitivities and leaky gut. I now live a productive full life filled with hope rather than fear without any major health issues and 140lbs lighter thanks to the carnivore lifestyle.” - Kaitlyn Pierce
“My carnivore journey started a few years ago after a bout with testicular cancer. I was diagnosed with embryonal carcinoma and after a surgery for a testicle extraction, the doctors informed me that I would need a rigorous chemotherapy treatment plan. When it was all said and done, I was never the same. I became severely depressed, I was lethargic, and I started to endure constant attacks of anxiety. My passion and zest for life was stripped, and I was at a crossroads with life and death - both seemingly good options for different reasons. Fortunately I was lucky enough to be surrounded by a support system that helped me realize that some drastic changes were necessary.
That’s where my carnivore journey began. A strict 6 week science experiment like trial of eggs, ribeyes, grass fed beef, salmon, cheese, scallops, butter, tallow, raw A2 milk, duck, shrimp and bone broth. The 1st week was a little uncomfortable and it took some time for my stomach to get acclimated. I was warned that bathroom repetition was a normal part of the protocol. But once that subsided and my gut began to adjust, I noticed some immediate changes that made me optimistic. I had more energy than usual, my mental clarity was more evident, and my panic attacks were fewer and further in between. Reducing my anxiety was my primary reason for the diet change, so the extra energy and never crashing after a meal was just icing on the cake. (Metaphorically not literally as cake is obviously prohibited. )
My 6 week science experiment became a 5 year lifestyle. I’m 43 years old and in the best shape of my life.
I’m not one of those people who wants to push this on anyone. I don’t believe that just because it worked for me, it’s guaranteed to work for everyone. But if you’re interested in a way of life that has potential to change your life, I would encourage you to run a science experiment on yourself the same way I did. A strict 6 week experiment that culminates with a single question. How do I feel? At that point, you’ll have all the answers you need.” - Derek, 43
A HUGE thank you to everyone courageous enough to share their story with us.
If we can continue to repeat these testimonials, that is science.
So here is our 6 week Carnivore Challenge. Do you have the courage to either change your life or prove us wrong?
You can do this. And honestly we know a lot of people who would be happy to help you - including all of us here at The Rationalist Society, and most of the people who helped with this article.
Here are some of our other articles on this topic:

Over 5 years now, strict carnivore. Healthier than I've ever been in the past 70 years: no meds, no supplements. Check out Dr Shawn Baker at revero.com, and a host of others like Dr Ken Berry, Dr Anthony Chafee. And yes, clearly we've been lied to for decades, and clearly it's having horrendous results for the US and much of the world.
So, I have been thinking about this diet, but; what about your microbiome? Wouldn’t an all-meat diet decimate your gut bugs? How would this not be a bad thing?
