Timo's success story is an inspiring testament to the transformative power of the Carnivore diet, showing not only his physical improvements but also his resilience and determination to overcome health challenges.

Why did you start Carnivore, and what is your goal?

I stumbled into Carnivore naturally, evolving from keto to ketovore and eventually to a Carnivore lifestyle. My main goal is to maintain a healthy lifestyle and build more muscle. I had a history of severe digestive issues, circulation problems, and recurring vertigo. After experimenting with different diets, I found relief with fasting and eventually a ketogenic way of life.

What successes have you seen so far?

My journey has been transformative. After a year of keto, my digestion improved, circulation issues went away, and I experienced increased energy and mental clarity. The shift to Carnivore brought even more significant changes. Digestive problems were completely solved, vertigo remained at bay in ketosis, and my body fat dropped to 7% while muscle mass increased to 46%, without changing my exercise routine. I've been illness-free since starting keto almost two years ago, a huge contrast to my previous frequency of colds.

What was your biggest challenge?

My main challenge is maintaining ketosis to prevent the return of vertigo. Balancing the right amount of fat, protein, and fasting has been crucial for me. It's a delicate balance, but the benefits make it worthwhile.

How has GoCarnivore helped you?

Connecting with like-minded individuals has been motivating and informative. Getting independent feedback about nutrition has added a positive dimension to my journey. The support and friendship within the community have been so important in staying on track.

How long do you see yourself staying on a Carnivore lifestyle?

Initially, I thought I would try Carnivore for just a month, but now it's been four. I plan to continue at least as ketovore permanently mainly due to the positive impact on my vertigo. I aim to give my gut and digestive system enough time to heal, possibly leaning more towards ketovore after a year. For now, I don't feel the need to move away from the Carnivore lifestyle.
