In this episode, we sit down with author and carnivore educator Jenny Mitich, who used a carnivore diet to lose over 50 pounds, reverse severe anxiety and depression, and rebuild her metabolic health. She shares how her husband first lost 130 pounds with keto and water fasting, how pregnancy weight gain and "doing it the traditional way" left her stuck, and what finally convinced her to try carnivore for "just one month."
Jenny explains the powerful changes she saw in her continuous glucose monitor when she switched from a "healthy" high-carb diet to a meat-based way of eating, dropping her average glucose from the low 100s to the low 80s in only a month. She also opens up about anxiety disappearing, better sleep, less inflammation, and why she believes the real goal isn't being "perfectly carnivore," but being healthy, energized, and metabolically sound.
We dig into her new book Complete Carnivore, which she calls an "encyclopedia" for the carnivore diet—part in‑depth guide, part 80‑recipe cookbook designed to bridge the gap between the standard American diet and a meat-based lifestyle. Jenny walks us through troubleshooting common carnivore problems, how to track progress with labs, Dexa scans, and CGMs, and why everyone should "know their numbers" like fasting insulin, triglycerides, HDL, and A1C instead of just chasing weight loss.
You'll also hear practical tips on:
-
Using water fasting and sardine fasting safely for major weight loss and loose skin concerns.
-
Making carnivore recipes the whole family will eat, like chicken‑based "mac and cheese," chicken crust pizza, and even fully carnivore ice cream sandwiches.
-
Raising animal‑based kids without being extreme—using meat, fruit, full-fat dairy, and a few gluten‑free treats while keeping processed foods low.
If you're an overwhelmed man or woman who's tired of low-energy, high-carb living and confusing diet advice, this conversation gives you a clear, low‑carb, whole‑food path forward without hours in the gym or restrictive rules you can't keep.
-
Jenny used a carnivore diet to lose over 50 pounds, improve her blood sugar (average glucose dropping from the low 100s to the low 80s), and completely resolve long‑standing anxiety and depression after years of struggle.
-
Her husband lost about 130 pounds using keto and extended water fasts, and then combined carnivore and fasting to continue improving body composition and even reduce loose skin through autophagy.
-
Jenny's book, Complete Carnivore, is designed as both an in‑depth "how‑to" guide and an 80‑recipe cookbook, with big focus on troubleshooting problems and tracking real data like fasting insulin, triglycerides, HDL, A1C, and visceral fat.
-
She teaches that healthy eating lives on a spectrum—from full carnivore to low‑carb and ketovore—and that the real target is whole, real foods and metabolic health, not perfection or dogma.
-
Practical tools like sardine fasting, high‑protein carnivore recipes that mimic comfort foods, and family‑friendly animal‑based meals help people transition from the standard American diet without feeling deprived or separate from their families.
