Show Notes
Chris spent years battling epilepsy, enduring seizures despite multiple anticonvulsant medications. He explored different diets, meditation, and nutrition strategies, searching for answers beyond prescriptions.
Then he discovered Carnivore.
In this compelling episode of Carnivore Evolution, Chris shares his journey from persistent seizures and medication side effects to a meat-based lifestyle. He describes how his seizures gradually stopped, how he tapered off his medication over a year, and how his energy and daily life changed.
Chris and host Mark also dive into ketogenic diets, brain health, cholesterol, blood markers, the Carnivore community, and the frustration of trying to help loved ones who are struggling with their health.
Chris opens up about the devastating loss of his mother to motor neurone disease and the emotional toll of watching someone you love suffer while feeling powerless to help.
This is a powerful conversation about personal transformation, questioning conventional approaches, and the determination to find another path.
Watch Chris tell his story.
