But Robert! What about fruits and vegetables? Aren’t those the healthiest things you can eat?! You might think so as I did, but like me, you would be wrong. About 12,000 years ago, we started to farm more of our food. Anthropologists can see the reduction of skull size, brain size, overall height, and bone strength in the fossils that have been dug up from the ground over a 700-year stretch around 12,000 years ago. People were bigger, stronger, and healthier when they ate fatty meat or fatty fish — far surpassing any nutrient density of a vegetable. People became the supreme predators on Earth because the meat they hunted and ate helped their brains and bodies to develop to a high level. In addition, today’s fruits and vegetables do not resemble those from years ago. They have all been genetically modified to have more carbohydrates and a sweeter taste, especially over the past 100 years, so that companies can sell more to the public. Veggies and fruits can provide nutrition but are less optimal than beef. However, let’s put things in perspective. Processed food, or food you find in a box or bag, is much worse and the biggest culprit of today’s chronic health problems, more so than fruits and vegetables. Hasn’t beef been altered, too? No, because cows and other ruminant animals have four chambers to their stomachs that break down the food they eat, turn it into protein and fat, reduce the toxins and chemicals, and make it much more bioavailable for humans to eat and absorb into their bodies. However, it is better to avoid eating cows that are unhealthy and are being fed antibiotics and chemicals. But the jump to eating more fatty meats compared to carbohydrates, even if not grass-fed, is still light-years better. Did you know that a cereal company, specifically Kellogg’s, in 1917 coined the term “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day”? They want you to eat their wheat-based products. Did you know they paid and are still paying chemists to develop the food to be more addictive? One such substance in all wheat is “gliadin,” a chemical that makes your brain want to eat more wheat and carbohydrates. It promotes addiction and overeating and is found in all wheat products! But Robert! Why does my doctor say eating meat will clog my arteries and that produce is better for me? Even though many doctors and medical researchers care about patients’ well-being, I believe they were taught in a corrupt system. Big Pharma significantly funds the medical schools. And Big Pharma doesn’t make money from promoting beef or fish. And Big Pharma will never promote something that doesn’t make them money. Like I said before, Big Pharma and Big Food have done most of the research you see. Understand that they will only put out evidence-based research that helps them make money. That is their focus. If they can also help people in some way, then great, the two motivations will be in sync. But if they don’t make money, you will never see those studies, especially if it reduces their profits.
I have a friend who is a medical doctor who promotes the carnivore diet online. He was sued by GlaxoSmithKline Pharmaceuticals, the largest pharmaceutical company in the world, and General Mills, the cereal company, because his message to eat beef was getting too popular on YouTube. So, he had to spend $20,000 on lawyers to win the case. They are ruthless when it comes to their bottom line. There is a lot happening behind the scenes regarding your health that you probably aren’t aware of. Furthermore, independent research studies funded by everyday people like you and me have shown no change in arterial plaque for people on the carnivore diet for five years, even though they had very high LDL cholesterol levels. Dave Feldman and Nick Norowitz recently published one such study, which you can look up on YouTube. Chronic conditions are increasing in the United States. Even though heart disease and cancer have better treatments today, they are still occurring much more frequently in our population than 50 years ago. Our main goal should be not to get cancer and heart disease in the first place. But who makes money when we avoid cancer and heart disease? Not Big Pharma. You do because you will be alive to work another day. We are failing with our current health practices, and the diet is the main culprit. Big Pharma makes money off of sick people, not healthy people. Wrong information has become commonplace and is the reason we have increases in cancer and heart disease growing every decade. We are getting sicker and dying younger, and health problems are occurring more frequently in younger people, like cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and autism. I encourage everyone to try the carnivore diet with help from a coach. Our own Dr. Sam, a physical therapist, is taking on new patients for guidance since he has achieved success with his health due to an animal-based diet. If you are interested, please let us know. I recommend you make diet changes with the assistance of a coach, as it will be a shift for your body to digest more fat, and it takes weeks or months of adjustments. You will want to know that you are on the right track. If you cannot commit to going fully carnivore, try a Keto diet, limiting yourself to 20-50 grams of carbohydrates daily. I guarantee you will feel better, get stronger, and live a healthier, pain-free life. A great place to start is by cutting out processed foods from your diet and replacing them with fatty meat or fish. Try just eating whole foods, and after three weeks, let me know if your pain level has reduced. I am sure it will. The food you eat is way more impactful in reducing pain and inflammation than medications and injections. We just haven’t felt it because we haven’t eaten the right foods. –Dr. Robert Morea
