Back to EpisodesNo More AFIB, Pain, or Sleepless Nights On A Carnivore Diet? | Dr. Shawn Baker & Brian
Description
Brian has been on a carnivore diet for almost 4 years. He was very overweight most of his adult life. In 2018, he developed A-Fib, and was having 2-3 paroxsymal A-Fib episodes per week before starting carnivore. Lower back and hip pain were so bad that he couldn't sleep longer than a couple of hours in bed at night. Brian also struggled with low energy, mild depression, joint pain, arthritis in his big toe, high triglycerides, low HDL, and low vitamin D.
Within a few weeks on carnivore Brian was sleeping all night in bed, joint pain was going away, and he noticed A-Fib episodes were not happening. He lost 60 pounds in the first 3 months and 85 pounds over the first year and has maintained that weight loss since starting carnivore in July of 2022.
Brian has gone over 3 1/2 years without a single A-Fib episode. His cardiologist has had him wear a heart monitor multiple times, including once for 30 days, and participate in a stress test and ultrasounds, showing no evidence of going into A-Fib anymore.
In November of 2025 Brian had a CAC scan and it was 0. His HDL is improved and triglycerides are way down. His Vitamin D level is normal, and no longer has issues with joint pain or arthritis in the big toe.
Starting carnivore at age 48, Brian is now 52 years old and feeling better than he did in his 30's.
