Ditch The Vegan and Plant-Based Myths | Dr. Shawn Baker & Richard Smith

Richard has been a carnivore for 5 years, following a ketogenic diet for 11 years. He was once clinically obese, had type 2 diabetes, and suffered from daily debilitating migraines that would render him blind. He also struggled with chronic fatigue, depression, anxiety, and in his mid to late 20s, he could barely walk up the stairs without stopping or being severely out of breath. He switched to a keto diet and within 12 months, he lost 107 lbs, reversed his diabetes, and no longer suffered from any of the aforementioned issues. The subsequent years saw him become a pro athlete and a British & European champion in men's physique bodybuilding. Today, he is a nutritionist and an ambassador for the Public Health Collaboration, assisting others in combating their health issues, ranging from insulin resistance & diabetes to APKD and cancers.
