Here's how to book for our UK Ancestral Health Festival… https://ancestralhealthfestival.com Here's my previous chat with Stephen…About Stephen Thomas BSc (Hons)Hi, I’m Stephen, also known as “The UK Carnivore.”I’ve been following a carnivore diet for 6 years, starting on my 55th birthday, after transitioning from a low-carb and ketogenic lifestyle. My health journey before discovering low-carb was marked by challenges: prediabetes, chronic pain, a high CAC score of 639, lower left quadrant pain, skin issues, and worsening hearing. Since embracing the carnivore lifestyle, I’ve experienced remarkable improvements in my health, including:•⁠ ⁠Reversal of prediabetes.•⁠ ⁠Elimination of pain, including lower back pain and digestive issues.•⁠ ⁠Significant improvements in hearing and eyesight.•⁠ ⁠Completely resolved skin conditions, such as athlete’s foot (after 30 years) and forehead rashes.•⁠ ⁠Increased testosterone levels by over 50% in just two months on carnivore.•⁠ ⁠Enhanced fitness and mental clarity.At almost 60 years old, I’m still playing soccer and feeling better than I did decades ago.---Professional BackgroundI hold a BSc (Hons.) in Physiology and Health Sciences and have achieved Specialist Practitioner status in Obesity and Diabetes management (UK qualified). I’m also a certified phlebotomist, which allows me to analyze bloodwork extensively and provide personalized insights backed by data.I trained as a Certified Coach under Dr. Shawn Baker and have accumulated over 1,000 client reviews across platforms like MeatRx (now Revero) and the Steak and Butter Gang. My clients consistently experience life-changing transformations in health, body composition, and well-being.I’m passionate about demystifying health, sharing science-based insights, and helping others regain and optimize their health through low-carb, ketogenic, and carnivore diets.---Personal Achievements•⁠ ⁠Semi-professional footballer in my youth, still active at 61.•⁠ ⁠Competed in running events, including 5Ks, 10Ks, and half-marathons.•⁠ ⁠Successfully coached an Olympic athlete and helped a client become a top 25% marathon runner worldwide.•⁠ ⁠Stand-in and Stuntman work, having worked on films like Batman: The Dark Knight and The Bourne Ultimatum.These experiences help me bring a unique mix of scientific knowledge, practical insights, and motivation to my coaching.---Current ProjectsI’ve written books, including "How to Be Carnivore: Your Road to Better Health," which is a comprehensive guide for anyone starting or thriving on a carnivore diet and “Guide To Blood Tests In The Conxtext Of Low-Carb, Keto and Carnivore”I also regularly produce health-focused content on my Substack blog and through my Skool community.On Substack, I explore topics such as the science behind low-carb and carnivore eating, reversing chronic conditions, and optimizing health.Connect With MeFor more information, coaching inquiries, or to explore additional resources:•⁠ ⁠Substack Blog: The UK Carnivore•⁠ ⁠Skool Community: Low-Carb, Keto and Carnivore Coachinghttps://www.skool.com/low-carb/about•⁠ ⁠YouTube Channel: Stephen Thomas - The UK Carnivorehttps://www.youtube.com/c/StephenThomasTheUKcarnivore•⁠ ⁠Instagram: @theukcarnivorehttps://www.instagram.com/theukcarnivore•⁠ ⁠Email: [email protected] This is a public episode.
