Courtney Luna's personal transformation from a lifelong yo-yo dieter to a healthier person through a carnivore diet has not only helped her lose 55 pounds but also significantly improved her mental health, allowing her to discontinue anxiety medication.

KISMET

Despite facing intense criticism online only after removing vegetables from her diet (not when sharing her previous diets), Courtney's carnivore cookbook has found unexpected success among non-carnivore households, where picky eaters are enjoying her meat-centric recipes.

EPISODE SUMMARY

In this episode, Dr. Philip Ovadia and Jack Heald talk with Courtney Luna, author of "Carnivore in the Kitchen." Courtney shares her journey from being a yo-yo dieter since age 13 to finding success with a carnivore diet. After trying numerous diets including paleo and keto, she gained 40 pounds in four months when attempting to eat "everything in moderation." Her switch to a carnivore diet led to a 55-pound weight loss, improved mental health, and freedom from anxiety medication. Courtney discusses how she manages this way of eating with her family, teaching her children about nutrition while giving them some freedom with food choices. She explains how her cooking background as a yacht chef helped her create her cookbook, which includes creative recipes using ingredients like pork panko (ground pork rinds) to make everything from chicken nuggets to cinnamon rolls. Courtney also addresses the surprising online backlash she received only after removing vegetables from her diet.

"For me, food freedom is not mentally obsessing about these foods. Now that I don't eat that stuff, there's no all that loud food noise. I don't feel like food has this huge control over me, like it did in the past."
