Can a carnivore diet plan help you lose weight or even improve your teeth?
Meat-based diet plans are growing in popularity to reverse obesity, but also type-II diabetes and even conditions like auto-immunity.
So if you’re looking to start with a carnivore diet plan, where do you get started?
Firstly it’s important to understand how a carnivore diet will affect your whole body, and the best place to start is your mouth.
Anthropological evidence shows that the ancestral human diet is based on animal foods. Studies show that the human jaw grows sufficiently to fit wisdom teeth and prevent crooked teeth.
It also shows that dental decay and gum disease did not exist in humans who ate a carnivore style diet with animal foods.
While humans are omnivores, it’s an interesting exploration to see how carnivore diet plans directly affect teeth. We know that most dental disease are caused by the overconsumption of sugar, refined flours, and carbohydrates that drive disease causing bacteria.
Today my guest is the carnivore dentist, Dr. Kevin Stock. Dr. Stock is a practicing dentist who has used a carnivore diet for his own performance and exercise based goals as well as the benefits exposed to his patients.
Dr Stock’s driving compass is to optimizing health and fitness, Early in his career he was drawn to a niche area of dentistry called Dental Sleep Medicine (DSM). After graduating dental school, he opened a practice strictly dedicated to treating Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and helping people sleep better by breathing better.
He is currently developing a comfortable, convenient, cost-effective solution for sleep disordered breathing. This led to years of research, development, and testing that resulted in the NED Device, a patented nasal device to treat snoring.
Throughout his career he has used the history of human dietary consumption and helps his patients to use a carnivore diet plan for better dental health.
