Patrick rebuilt his health gradually, moving toward an animal-based, carnivore-informed way of eating, alongside a very different approach to movement, recovery, and nervous system health. Not out of ideology or rebellion, but because it worked when everything else hadn’t. Today, in his 50s, Patrick feels physically stronger, mentally clearer, and more grounded than he did decades earlier. What often resonates most with people isn’t the dietary shift itself, but the human side of the story, the resistance to change, the fear of letting go, and the quiet discipline required to rebuild from...

info_outlineIn Mary Ann's 33 years of life, she has faced anorexia, a near-death infection, institutional abuse, and the trauma of amputation, but she has found purpose in nourishing her body and sharing her testimony. Mary Ann has been carnivore since 2018 and rededicated her life to Jesus in 2022 during a hospital stay, and those two decisions have strengthened her physical body and saved her soul.
Mary Ann grew up in a household run by two doctors who didn't allow her to eat red meat, and followed every "heart healthy" dietary lie being perpetrated by the government in the early nineties. She became fixated around her weight and food intake as a way of regaining control in a chaotic household and developed an eating disorder that only going carnivore could cure.
In 2022, bacteria from a hot tub entered an open cut in her leg and the resulting infection caused her to go septic. Mary Ann lost half of her left foot, two fingers, and nearly her life. The doctors performed skin graft surgery to save her legs, but after three years the grafts failed and she lost her right leg below the knee right after Meatstock 2025 due to osteomyelitis. Mary Ann just received her prosthetic two weeks ago and is walking and driving - healing at lightning speed thanks to God and the healing power of meat!
