A Path to Health and Self-Discovery: It Started In a Vegan Health Food Store!

When it comes to nutrition and dietary choices, there are numerous options and opinions to consider. One particular approach that has gained popularity in recent years is the Carnivore Diet. This way of eating emphasizes the consumption of animal foods while eliminating or severely restricting plant-based foods. But what drives someone to adopt such an eating plan that's growing in popularity all the time? To gain insights into this unique journey, I had the pleasure of interviewing Jonathan Griffiths, also known as Carnivore Muscle.

Jonathan's journey into the carnivore lifestyle began four years ago when he first heard about World Carnivore Month. At the time, he was working at a vegan health food shop and noticed that many of the customers who followed a plant-based diet were not in good health. This observation prompted him to question the efficacy of the food they were consuming and the supplements they were purchasing. As a nutrition professional with a degree in the field, he had a solid understanding of the importance of animal foods in maintaining a healthy diet.

Jonathan's interest in nutrition and experimenting with his body started at a young age. As a teenager, he engaged in water fasting and pursued bodybuilding. This early exploration allowed him to understand the significance of various nutrients in the body. However, despite his knowledge, he experienced health issues, including anemia, skin problems, depression, chronic fatigue, and a weakened immune system, while following a plant-based diet and taking multiple supplements.

Frustrated with his health struggles, Jonathan decided to take a closer look at the carnivore diet. He experimented with a carnivorous eating pattern during his teenage years, which involved consuming canned tuna and eggs. Although it may seem unconventional, this simple approach yielded positive results for Jonathan. He experienced improved digestion and increased satiety due to the dense nutrient content of animal foods. However, he also suffered from mercury poisoning due to excessive fish consumption.
