RFK Jr.’s diet is simple, extreme, and surprisingly effective. It’s basically strict carnivore: red meat every day, plus full-fat organic yogurt, kefir, kimchi, coleslaw, and other fermented vegetables. No sugar, no carbs. He says it has dramatically improved how he feels overall. Rachel Campos-Duffy revealed her husband Sean is... show more

HHS Secretary RFK Jr. shared his "Bobby Kennedy diet" — and it's pure carnivore with a fermented twist: "Mainly meat, fermented vegetables, good sugar-free yogurt, coleslaw, kimchi… high protein. Dramatically changed everything." He says it's transformed his energy, health, and overall well-being — and he's clearly sold on it. Carnivore base + daily ferments = the emerging power combo for longevity and vitality? Would you go full meat + kimchi/yogurt like RFK Jr., or is this too extreme for you?

RFK Jr. Eats a (Mostly) Carnivore Diet “Basically it's a carnivore diet, so it's mainly meat and then fermented, anything that’s fermented, a lot of yogurt, a good yogurt without sugar it it, and then coleslaw and kimchi and all kinds of fermented vegetables and it's really... I would say it's dramatically changed my, you know, everything. I’ve had very good luck with it.”

RFK Jr. on his carnivore diet with ferments. Steak and yogurt for breakfast, meat and sauerkraut/kimchi for the rest. He lost 20 pounds of visceral fat in 30 days, regained it as muscle, and his atrial fibrillation disappeared. A strict but effective approach. What do you think, could a carnivore-style diet work for you?

RFK Jr. just casually revealed his daily diet as HHS Secretary — and it's pure carnivore with a twist. “I'm on a carnivore diet, so I just eat meat and ferments… I eat some kind of meat, probably twice a day… with sauerkraut.” Peter Doocy: “Is it true you’ll be cooking a steak at 6:30 in the morning with sauerkraut?” RFK Jr.: “I eat it with sauerkraut, yeah.” No carbs. No plants (except fermented ones). Meat + ferments = his baseline. Carnivore + sauerkraut at dawn — genius gut-health hack or too extreme for most people? What’s your take — would you try it, or is this a step too far?

RFK Jr. is on a carnivore diet, meat plus fermented vegetables. He casually brings his own sauerkraut to parties and dinners because he loves it. He picks it up at Whole Foods, where there’s an entire wall dedicated to fermented veggies. He also takes Vitamin D, quercetin, zinc, magnesium, vitamin C, and a few others. Fermented foods like sauerkraut are packed with probiotics and prebiotics that support gut microbiome diversity, which has been linked in studies to improved digestion, stronger immunity, reduced inflammation, and even better mood regulation.

Andrew Huberman dropped a simple but powerful gut-health hack on The Nine Club: Aim for 1 to 4 servings per day of low-sugar fermented foods — refrigerated kimchi, sauerkraut, or pickles. There’s strong Stanford research showing these foods do more for your microbiome than most supplements. The downside? It gets expensive fast and is surprisingly hard to keep up with when you’re traveling or busy. Huberman also recommended quality whey protein (if whole foods like eggs, fish, and meat aren’t enough), a good fish oil, and a broad vitamin/mineral/probiotic like AG1 as convenient backups. Have you tried hitting that fermented-food target daily — and did you actually notice better digestion, mood, or energy, or is it just too impractical on busy days?

Joe Rogan reveals his personal cheat code for weight loss — and it’s brutally effective: “If you're trying to lose weight, one of the best ways to regulate your appetite is the carnivore diet. You literally can't overeat on it.” He breaks down why it works so well for him (from his interview with Kevin James): - Zero carbs = body flips into fat-burning ketosis, cravings drop naturally. - Pure protein + fat hits satiety fast — your body signals “enough” long before you overdo calories. - Add bread, pasta, mashed potatoes, ice cream? “I'm gonna keep going and get another 7,000 calories.” Kevin James notes his trainer (Dolce) says “carbs are fine” if they're the right ones — but Rogan doubles down: For pure fat loss, carnivore is the ultimate appetite-killer, no constant willpower battles required. No preaching, no dogma — just his honest experience after trying every diet imaginable. Have you ever gone full carnivore (or high-protein/low-carb) — and did it crush your cravings the way he describes?

Dr. Benjamin Bikman dropped a bombshell on the carnivore diet: “The metabolic improvements in people who go carnivore are absolutely mind-blowing… shocking how quickly they cut medications, feel better, look better, and move better. I’ve never seen anything comparable.” He admits the evidence is still emerging (mostly anecdotal and observational for now), but the real-world transformations he’s witnessed personally are “profound” and rapid—especially in people with serious metabolic issues. Science nugget: Carnivore eliminates virtually all dietary carbohydrates, forcing the body into deep ketosis and fat-adaptation. This often leads to dramatic drops in insulin, triglycerides, and inflammation markers within weeks, plus improved energy and reduced medication needs in insulin-resistant individuals (consistent with emerging low-carb/carnivore case series and metabolic health studies). Bikman’s take: The microbiome shifts dramatically (less diversity, fewer fiber-fermenters), but the metabolic dividends appear to outweigh that—for some people, at least. Carnivore skeptics vs. converts: Which camp are you in after hearing this?

Andrew Huberman just shattered the “eat more fiber” mantra on Chris Williamson’s podcast. Some fibers actually increase inflammation and gut issues for many people. But low-sugar fermented foods (sauerkraut, kefir, kimchi) reliably slash body-wide inflammation. A Stanford study by Sonnenberg & Gardner showed fermented foods significantly outperformed extra fiber for lowering inflammatory markers across the body. Huberman drinks sauerkraut brine straight after every workout and calls it one of the most effective tools he uses. This one really made me stop and think. We’ve been told fiber is universally great for decades, but the reality is far more individual. (Personally, I love kimchi and sauerkraut, they’ve become daily staples for me.) The right fermented foods might be a much smarter lever for reducing inflammation than just forcing down more vegetables. Have you noticed fermented foods helping you more than extra fiber?

RFK Jr. starts most mornings with steak for breakfast, a big bowl of grass-fed yogurt topped with cream, and a generous side of sauerkraut or kimchi. Zero carbs. Strict carnivore plus ferments only. He’s been eating this way for about 250 days. He shared on the pod that he was having atrial fibrillation every day for four months. A military doctor reviewed his MRI and saw visceral fat blanketing his heart, liver, and organs — and warned things would worsen. So he committed. After just 30 days on the diet, a follow-up MRI showed 40% less visceral fat. He lost 20 pounds of that hidden fat, then regained it all as muscle. The daily AFib disappeared completely — no skipped beats since. He’s quick to note that it worked powerfully for him, but our metabolisms are all different. It makes you wonder how much of our everyday fatigue or inflammation might quietly trace back to what ends up on the plate. What’s one food you’ve added (or removed) that noticeably shifted how you feel day to day — energy, mood, or anything else?

I'm 8 minutes into a 'documentary' on Netlfix called "What the Health" where the documentary film maker is interviewing a doctor who says the following: Kip the documentary filmmaker: "What role does sugar play in causing diabetes? Dr. Neal Barnard, M.D.: "Driving me crazy. Diabetes is not and never was caused by eating a high carbohydrate diet, and it's not caused by eating sugar. The causes of diabetes is a diet that builds up the amount of **fat** into the blood. I'm talking about a typical meat-based, animal-based diet." Dr. Barnard then goes on to claim its a high ANIMAL FAT diet that causes insulin resistance. The animal fat blocks the intake of sugar or glucose into the blood vessels. Or something. Watch. He actually says this. And he's not the only one. Several MD's appear here claiming metabolic syndrome, diabetes and insulin resistance is caused by animal fat in the human diet. Sugar? Not a real problem. High carb diet? That's fine. You get fat and unhealthy from an animal-based diet. What do you think about what they said? Respond in the comments.

Andrew Huberman on Gwyneth Paltrow’s podcast pushed back on the “red meat is bad” narrative from cardiologists. He loves a good steak four nights a week but pairs it thoughtfully. He doesn’t trust most nutrition studies, calls them worthless, because they’re often too extreme and don’t separate high-protein meals from starchy carbs and sugar. The real problem, he says, is combining lots of starch, sugar, and fat. That’s where things get messy. We desperately need some really good, honest research on this.

Michael Pollan and Joe Rogan went head-to-head on the carnivore diet. Pollan’s warning: No plants means no fiber. Your gut microbes starve, then start eating the protective mucus lining in your intestines. This can lead to leaky gut and inflammation. Rogan pushed back: Many people on strict carnivore for 20–30 years report huge improvements in depression, anxiety, and autoimmune issues. The gut microbiome thrives on dietary diversity. Both plant fibers and animal proteins influence different bacterial populations. Long-term studies show that extreme restriction (whether zero plants or zero animal foods) can reduce microbial diversity, while balanced diets tend to support broader microbiome health. The gut microbiome affects everything from mood to immunity. This debate shows how divided the science still is. I’m genuinely curious, do you think a long-term carnivore diet can actually work well, or are plants pretty much essential?

"I don't think I could eat that much meat." THAT MUCH MEAT..... I've had this comment from friends when talking about carnivore. Just this week, I had two other friends who do carnivore have comments from their friends saying this exact thing. I once had a friend tell me that people probably don't think we eat a ton of meat every day, they just wonder how we could eat "only" meat every day. So, when I saw the comments my friends got on their carnivore posts, I followed along to see what people really think. What I found is that people actually do think we eat a lot of meat every single day. So, I'd like to clear up a couple things about carnivore: 1. Many of us don't "only eat meat." We eat a variety of animal-based foods. Red meat, chicken, seafood, pork, eggs. Dairy like plain yogurt, cheese, cottage cheese, kefir, etc. Some of us add coffee or tea. Some add avocado, kimchi, olives, or pickles to their meals. Some add herbs, or make tomato sauces for things like animal-based lasagna or pizza, etc. 2. We don't eat a huge slab of beef every day. People see some carnivores on social media eating 3lb tomahawk steaks and think we eat like that every day. We don't. Many of us eat less meat than we did before going carnivore. How? Because we're eating extremely nutrient-dense food and not loading our bellies with fiber and non-nutrient-dense foods. So our bodies are getting more nutrients and our appetites are much more satisfied. When our appetites are satisfied and our bodies are nourished, we actually eat less. Before going carnivore, I used to eat a diet that was heavy in plants and whole-food carbs. I'd add lean meats and low-fat dairy, whey protein powders and creatine, "health food" protein bars and shakes. Even with a diet heavy in plants with some lean meats, I still ate 1lb or more of meat daily. It was all chicken breasts, fish, canned tuna, and ground turkey. Every once in a great while, I'd grill a couple tri-tips or a steak. But it wasn't often. I'd wake up hungry and go to bed hungry. I ate all day long because I was constantly hungry, always had cravings, and my appetite never felt satisfied. My body lacked energy, I always felt bloated from all the vegetables, fiber, and carbs, and I never truly felt nourished. I increased my carb and calorie intake to see if it would help with my lack of energy, but it didn't. It made the bloating and sluggishness worse, I still didn't feel nourished, and I was still hungry. I would seriously have an extended stomach that was full, but my body would still feel hungry. I never understood it, until I went carnivore and fed my body truly nutrient-dense foods. Everything changed. The way I see food changed. On carnivore, I just follow my appetite and let my body decide when it's hungry. I don't force meals if I'm not hungry. So, I typically eat once a day. That one meal usually consists of around 8oz-12oz of beef with a few eggs. Sometimes, I eat twice a day. One meal usually has about 8oz-10oz of meat, the second meal usually has about 6oz. So, a total of 1lb for the day. Not only do I eat less than what I used to eat, but I spend a lot less money on food too. I've heard people question this way of eating a lot. They claim it's unsustainable or it lacks nutrients. They think we're eating, "That much meat." They don't understand that we're eating foods that have extremely bioavailable nutrients that the human body was actually designed to efficiently break down, absorb, and use. But, they can question and I'll keep sharing and answering. Until they try it for themselves, they won't understand the benefits we all have experienced with this way of eating. Our bodies aren't lacking nutrients. They're now actually getting nutrients. Big difference. **Here's a breakfast I sometimes make. Biscuits & gravy with eggs. Sausage gravy made with HWC and milk, no flour. Butter biscuits made with butter powder and duck eggs, no flour. Yum!

Every once in a great while, I'd grill a couple tri-tips or a steak. But it wasn't often. I'd wake up hungry and go to bed hungry. I ate all day long because I was constantly hungry, always had cravings, and my appetite never felt satisfied. My body lacked energy, I always felt bloated from all the vegetables, fiber, and carbs, and I never truly felt nourished. I increased my carb and calorie intake to see if it would help with my lack of energy, but it didn't. It made the bloating and sluggishness worse, I still didn't feel nourished, and I was still hungry. I would seriously have an extended stomach that was full, but my body would still feel hungry. I never understood it, until I went carnivore and fed my body truly nutrient-dense foods. Everything changed. The way I see food changed. On carnivore, I just follow my appetite and let my body decide when it's hungry. I don't force meals if I'm not hungry. So, I typically eat once a day. That one meal usually consists of around 8oz-12oz of beef with a few eggs. Sometimes, I eat twice a day. One meal usually has about 8oz-10oz of meat, the second meal usually has about 6oz. So, a total of 1lb for the day. Not only do I eat less than what I used to eat, but I spend a lot less money on food too. I've heard people question this way of eating a lot. They claim it's unsustainable or it lacks nutrients. They think we're eating, "That much meat." They don't understand that we're eating foods that have extremely bioavailable nutrients that the human body was actually designed to efficiently break down, absorb, and use. But, they can question and I'll keep sharing and answering. Until they try it for themselves, they won't understand the benefits we all have experienced with this way of eating. Our bodies aren't lacking nutrients. They're now actually getting nutrients. Big difference. **Here's a breakfast I sometimes make. Biscuits & gravy with eggs. Sausage gravy made with HWC and milk, no flour. Butter biscuits made with butter powder and duck eggs, no flour. Yum!

What I ate today and what it cost me. 👇🏻 Meal 1: Leftover chuck roast + 3 eggs + 2 extra yolks cooked in butter. Cost: $3.25 Meal 2: 4 slices bacon + 3 hard boiled eggs + 2 slices Havarti + pickles. Cost: $2.75 Total for the day: $6.00 Tell me again how carnivore is expensive. I’ll wait. Now. About those pickles. Yes I ate pickles. Yes I’m still carnivore. Here’s the thing…I did strict carnivore for 10 months straight. Beef, eggs, bacon, butter, salt, water. That’s it. I healed my metabolism, reversed my insulin resistance, and did the work. THEN I slowly started adding ferments back in because my gut is healed enough to handle them and because fermented foods are genuinely good for your body. If you’re brand new or still healing? Maybe hold off on the pickles for now. But if someone tells you that you’re not a real carnivore because you eat a pickle? That’s not carnivore. That’s a cult. And we don’t do that here. Progress beats purity. Every single time. 🥒🥩👑

NEW: Lizzo says she is eating a high-protein, low-carb diet to lose weight, says she has *not* been on Ozempic, according to Women's Health. A lot of good advice here. Lizzo, who was once a vegan, which actually made her fatter due to her reliance on carbs at the time, says the high-protein, low-carb diet has transformed her life. "Her meals consist mainly of protein and vegetables. A go-to breakfast includes two scrambled eggs, chicken sausage, and a cauliflower hash brown," Women's Health wrote. "She goes for a shredded Thai chicken salad or lettuce wraps stuffed with tuna or sliced chicken breast for lunch." "In the evening, she opts for turkey meatloaf with cauliflower mashed potatoes and green beans, which she makes sure to eat before 5 p.m." "For snacks, it’s low-sugar Greek yogurt with blueberries or blackberries and a little honey on top ... she’s replaced multiple Frappuccinos a day with one cup of coffee with vanilla protein..."
