Benefits of the Carnivore Diet with Dr. Shawn Baker – Episode 2091

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 2091 – On this Friday show, Dr. Shawn Baker joins Vinnie for another appearance and the two talk benefits of the carnivore diet, shredded bodies and lifting, rowing, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

DR. SHAWN BAKER

  • Dr. Baker has been on the show before.
  • He feels that he has been shadow banned on social media because of his views.
    • It seems they prefer the vegan view.
  • But he’s incredibly healthy and his been carnivore for some time.
  • It’s tough because all Dr. Baker does is follow the science.
  • Your political persuasion should not matter: this is about being healthy and feeling good.
  • He is all-in on the carnivore diet, and is also a big rower like Vinnie!

THE CARNIVORE DIET

  • Before it was coined ‘carnivore,’ it was mostly called the zero-carb diet.
    • But Dr. Baker realized “carnivore” was more accessible.
  • He did an n=1 experiment and felt so much better eating this way.
  • Dr. Baker’s diet is 99% animal products.
    • Every once in awhile he puts life into living, but he loves steak for breakfast.
  • This diet also helps those with autoimmune disorders — it’s a sort of healthy, sustainable elimination diet.
  • The more he sees, the more he believes in eating carnivore.
  • Carnivore isn’t for everyone — but for those that like it, they reap the benefits.
  • He doesn’t do the same thing every day.
    • But he likes to have steak and eggs for breakfast and early dinner or late lunch that looks similar.
  • Shawn shoots for highly nutritious meals that are tasty and satiating.
  • He is 6’5″ and 240 and might eat a dozen eggs and three lbs of meat in a day.
    • Vinnie compares his body to Gronk — except Dr. Baker’s is better at 55 years old. 
    • This is certainly not the norm — most people need way, way less.
