Hey, Power at the Nation.

We welcome Dr. Sean Baker to the podcast, carnivore expert and really the founding father for the carnivore movement, which I think is pretty interesting in terms of

managing autoimmune disease, making people less fat, which I feel like is the major focus

whenever I turn on the news and you start looking at health. Everything is Ozympic GLP-1s and how to be

less fat. And I think you found an interesting way into it and really just talking about managing

high protein diet and getting people really into it.

So for those of you that have been living under a rock and don't know anything about

the carnivore diet, I decided to have Dr. Baker on to talk a little bit about it, about the

origins and more importantly, how it could potentially

help you be a less fat version for yourself and maybe ramp up performance on the side.

Yeah, John, thanks for having me, John. It's a pleasure chatting. We've known each other now for a

couple of years and I've talked on a number of occasions. Yeah, you know, I think this is a very

important caveat. I am certainly a proponent

for a carnivore diet. I think it has potential for tremendous therapeutic benefit for a lot of

conditions, particularly things like autoimmune disease and diabetes, mental health and some other

things that we've seen good success with. You know, it's not certainly for everyone. There are a lot of

people that can get healthy in a lot of different ways. You mentioned GLP-1s as a drug route. That is a lifetime subscription for people that don't know that. I mean, it's basically, it's engineered to be something you take for the rest of your life. You know, those people, it's pretty clear the data shows when people come off the GLP ones, they gain a weight back. So it's's not i don't know if that's the right sustainable solution um yeah i mean you can get lean you can lean a lot

of ways i mean you can get fat on a carnivore i believe or not you know depending on how it's how it's
