In this in-depth conversation, Dr. Ken Berry breaks down what most people get wrong about the carnivore diet, low-carb nutrition, dairy, processed meats, and GLP-1 medications — and why so many modern health guidelines are failing us.

Dr. Berry shares his personal journey from medical school to family medicine, and eventually becoming one of the most outspoken advocates for low-carb and carnivore diets. After struggling with severe obesity and pre-diabetes, he began questioning conventional dietary advice and turned to nutrition science, historical eating patterns, and real-world patient outcomes.

We discuss how dietary guidelines, big food, and pharmaceutical companies influence public health messaging — and why chronic conditions like obesity, diabetes, and metabolic disease are not genetic inevitabilities, but largely diet-driven.

This episode tackles common myths around the carnivore diet, including:

Whether processed meats are allowed or harmful

Why some people tolerate raw dairy better than conventional dairy

The role of diet drinks and coffee in low-carb lifestyles

How GLP-1 medications like Ozempic work, their risks, and why they should be used cautiously

What to do when blood pressure remains elevated despite doing “everything right”

Dr. Berry emphasizes the importance of accountability, community support, and returning to what he calls a proper human diet — one rooted in biology, not marketing. If you’re interested in carnivore, low-carb, metabolic health, nutrition science, or understanding the truth behind modern health trends, this episode is a must-watch.
