Curing "Incurable" Diseases With The Carnivore Diet | Dr. Shawn Baker | The Amir Zen Show Ep. 5

Dr. Shawn Baker MD is a physician, world record holding athlete, and one of the leading voices behind the carnivore diet. He is best known for helping people reverse chronic disease through animal-based nutrition, his peak athletic performance, and for calling out the pharmaceutical industry’s monopoly control over modern healthcare and medicine.

Shawn is the founder of Revero, a healthcare company that helps people overcome disease by treating the root cause, not just managing symptoms. He leads by example, proving his philosophy through elite strength and performance at 58 years old.

In this episode we talk about how medicine lost its way, why nutrition is the foundation of healing, and what true health actually looks like. We break down supplements, carbohydrates, fructose, fiber, protein powders, organ meats, and why animal foods are unmatched in nutrient density and efficiency.

This is not just a diet and nutrition episode. This is a reality check for anyone who wants to be strong, healthy, and free.
