587. Before You Try Carnivore...Listen to This! What Works, What Backfires and Why.
from The Thyroid (and Hormone) Fixer Podcast: Thyropause, Menopause, Metabolism and How to Fix It · host Dr. Amie Hornaman
What if the foods you think are healthy are actually keeping you inflamed, exhausted and stuck? In this episode, I’m joined by carnivore expert and cookbook author Jenny Mitich to break down the real differences a meat-based diet can make for thyroid health, autoimmune symptoms, weight loss and chronic inflammation. Jenny shares her personal story, from postpartum weight gain to a Hashimoto’s flare, and how carnivore transformed everything from her energy to her mood to her labs. We dig into the biggest fears around going carnivore, what actually happens to cholesterol and blood sugar, why some people gain weight from “healthy” carbs, and how plant toxins and oxalates play a role in inflammation. And if you’re worried carnivore will feel restrictive, Jenny’s Complete Carnivore cookbook might change your mind entirely. If you’re struggling with symptoms that won’t budge, or you’ve wondered whether food could be the missing piece, this episode might be the nudge you need to try something new.
