Core Theme
This content features an interview with Jeff, a stage four colon cancer patient who has adopted a carnivore diet and other lifestyle changes to manage his condition, sharing his journey from diagnosis to his current proactive approach to health.
I knew that when I came out I was going
to get bad news I'm sorry it's cancer I
knew what they were going to tell me
I was a little shocked they said yeah
you know what your cold your liver is
fully covered I asked the question I go
if I don't do any treatment a chemo or anything
anything
or we don't like how long do I have to
live I was just curious and they're like
a couple months he tells me I have stage
four colon cancer this is the first time
I heard it he said you're inoperable
you're incurable you're palliative
you're terminally ill like he's firing
all these all these words at me so I'm like
like
I I thought it was dead
um I'm happy where I am now I've had a
lot of success over the last year and a
half by the regimen that I put myself on
you know I should be dead by now you
know what I mean if I if I just if I if
I didn't take control every single thing
I come across
the last year and a half I try not to
take it as negative and I try to take it
as a blessing
welcome everyone Carrie here from
homestead Howe in the carnivore diet
movie I'm honored to have Mr Jeffrey de
prosperous here with us today joining us
how you doing Jeff
I'm great Carrie thanks for having me
and thanks for pronouncing my name
perfect I got it okay good I was worried
absolutely no you're I'm unbelievable if I
I
some people are like d prosperous D
prosperos like you you're perfect thank
you thank you very much absolutely hey I
I was glad I got it correct on the 24
hour live stream oh God I was blown away
by that
it definitely helps because you've uh
started your own YouTube channel so I
think I heard you say it on there too so
that helped as well but
um yeah I've been looking forward to
talking to you we talked briefly before
you've uh set up a YouTube channel
um I'm gonna have that Linked In the
description below for everyone to see
and um yeah maybe could we just start
out you could just tell us a little bit
about yourself and maybe uh your
carnivore story
okay uh sounds good thanks uh thanks
Carrie well my name is Jeff the
prosperous and uh yes uh and thank you
for putting that up there uh I started a
YouTube channel uh recently
um basically because you to be honest
Carrie you motivated me because you know
you're you're quite you've got some
great experience with YouTube like you
said you told me you only been crying
over six months but you were doing
YouTube Forever and uh me and my sons
have been following you quite quite a
bit so you motivated me and especially
with your 24 hour live uh that you just
did this past Saturday
um you know in my first video that I
made was kind of in a panic I uh
if you anyone goes to my
my YouTube channel and they see my first
video I I had chemo chemotherapy that
day natural path and then I was like oh
I gotta make a video guys because
something something important is coming
up uh by Carrie Mann so that's that was
my first experience with that
but um
again once again uh my story Carrie is
that what you kind of want me to start
with yeah please so I I know you're
going through stage four cancer yes
correct you're also a carnivore and
you're having some good success with
that so maybe if you could take us back
I it's a tough thing but could you maybe
take us back to when you were diagnosed
with the cancer and tell us a little bit
more about about that absolutely
um well
first off I was a I've been a high
school phys ed teacher uh for 21 years now
now
um it's actually my dream job uh I
always whatever wanted to be is a
professional athlete and if I couldn't
be a professional athlete I always say I
want to be a high school gym teacher so
I I had my perfect job and I did it for
that past 21 years and um
I'm gonna go back to
when I first got diagnosed it was
end of March 2022 beginning of April end
of March
and I'm going to go back even further
from that um
um
into the summer of
2021. and I think June 2021 I'm not sure
how it was where you guys were I'm
pretty sure it's similar but I'm here in Canada
Canada
June of 2021
we were coming out of a lockdown
actually still like the third lockdown
and like many people uh
family time was great and it was great
for cooking but I noticed I was
barbecuing tons of meat which was good I
learned that now but also my wife was
she was doing like most households would
do probably in in North America uh you
know she'd be making the salads the rice
the potatoes the bread everything to go
with the meat I was barbecuing so this
was around like June 2021 and
and
after every meal I was feeling bloated
just bloated to the point where I
couldn't even move and I'm like I need
to lie down
and so
when the sun when summer hit I said to
my wife and my two sons I said
I'm gonna do something different
and I like many people do uh they cut
out meat first so I decided to become a vegetarian
vegetarian
so I became a vegetarian for from July
2021 all the way up to December
Christmas 2021
it drove my parents of Italian Heritage
who know the importance of meat I drove
them nuts [Music]
[Music] um
um but
but
I did it because I think I blamed it on
the meat
little did I know I probably already had
a tumor in my colon from the diagnosis
of it and I'll talk with that in a
little bit but from the diagnosis of it
I probably had a tumor in my colon my
primary tumor uh for like the past four
in retrospect now I think about it
becoming a vegetarian what I've learned about
about
cancer and tumors from Dr Anthony chafee
and even Dr Thomas Seyfried is one of
them I I study quite a bit
I being a vegetarian was probably the
worst thing I ever did I fed those
tumors my insulin was raised I was
feeding it glucose carbohydrates
probably the worst thing ever
so leading up after that you know
December January
I started to become mentally a mess and
and I wasn't sleeping I think November
December January 2022
for about three months I was sleeping
maybe one hour a night and I didn't know
what was going on I was going to work I
was teaching you know teaching phys Ed
and you know at the time in January it
was coming towards an end of the first
semester and I was getting ready for
like the end of the semester so we were
doing these culminating assignments I
remember having my health class in a
computer lab and I would leave to go to
the washroom to go almost like throw up
I was feeling nauseous this was really
weird because I've been that High School
phys ed teacher in good shape for you
know 20 years but I had to sleep for
three three months anyways I'm sharing
all this information with my wife and my
and my father and my mother and my
sister my brother-in-law and it got to
the end of January where it was the end
of the semester where I couldn't take it
anymore and I you know my family said
you got to go tell your principal you
need to take a leave from work
so I went into my principal's office
took a leave from work I was in tears I
told him I didn't know what was going on
a couple days before the January 2022
doctors weren't seeing you face to face
my family doctor because of the pandemic
my family doctor
he he diagnosed me with being severely
depressed and having anxiety and the and
and so he gave me depression pills and
sleep and sleep pills so I went off I it
was crazy like I went off work in
February March hiding in my house taking
these pills
not making me better but then I was also
kept you know diagnosing myself so
so
around March break of 2022
I say March break because we call that
in Canada it's like a spring break I
think for you guys in U.S um
um
I started diagnosing I started noticing
my stools being being uh thinner and
smaller and a little bit of blood
uh so I beg I call my family doctor and
my family doctor at the time it's like
oh just drink prune juice
he's like you're you're you know you're
too young you know I was I was 43 when I
got you know I'm 43 44 years old you're
too young you're doing prune juice and
I'm like whatever I went out and bought
prune juice and it didn't work
um then
I kind of begged my family doctor can
you get me like scans tests like so he
sent me for an ultrasound they saw
something not much so then I was dagging
him for a colonoscopy
and he's like okay he sent me for a call
finally he sent me for a colonoscopy and
I knew I knew by then this was like uh
end of March 2022
I knew that when I came out I was going
to get bad news so I was prepared but
that it was crazy the the
the doctor that did the colonoscopy told
me he removed three polyps and he said
you have a you have a you have a large
growth in your colon and your sigmoid colon
colon
I said large growth what's that he's
like I'm sorry it's cancer and it's
covering like if your Colon's here it's
covering like pretty much half of my colon
colon
it's pretty large he said but he said
you know he was pretty optimistic we're
going to do surgery we'll cut it out
you'll be good to go I'll see you in a year
year
but in the meantime you know you're
getting set up for CT scan so I had from
that colonoscopy I had a CT scan early
April 2022 a couple weeks later and
and
I knew if I knew if I you know Mr Google
and diagnosing myself of where colon
cancer goes next
that my liver was covered even before I
went into the CT scan because I could
feel pressure in my liver I couldn't lie
on my stomach as a sleeper at night it
was bothering me so when I went in for
my CT scan when I came out and I met the
colon specialist and the liver
specialist at the Cancer Hospital here
in Canada I knew what they were going to
tell me
I was a little shocked they said yeah
you know what your col your liver is
fully covered like they couldn't even
tell me numbers and how many tumors are
on there
so then the liver specialist the colon
specialist passed me to deliver
specialist the liver specialist said
well you know what we're going to hit it
with chemo for a bit and then hopefully
he was kind of optimistic maybe we can
do surgery so you know I was a I had a
little bit of optimism in my mind and by
the way
those colon Specialists and liver
Specialists they told me
that I asked the question I go if I
don't do any treatment a chemo or anything
anything
or we don't like how long do I have to
live I was just curious and they're like
couple months maybe maybe a couple
months ago they actually there no no
doctor can tell you how long you can
live they were just kind of guessing
so anyways that was April ish
beginning of May 2022 I get a phone call
from the oncologist who's going to be
administering my chemo
and uh
so nothing staged yet so I remember this
phone call beginning of May 2022 I
remember this phone call my wife was on
it she was she was she works from home
or from her car most of the time she's
she's a banker and uh she's on the call
I think my brother-in-law is on the call
and I'm taking this call from the
oncologist and he stages it he tells me
I have stage four colon cancer this is
the first time I heard it you know my
wife was pretty pretty upset about
hearing that and
he said you're inoperable
you're incurable you're palliative
you're terminally ill like he's firing
all these all these words at me so I'm like
like
I I thought it was dead like at the time so
so
that was huge and then we got on chemo I
started chemo end of May end of May 2022
and I went all the way to May 2023 and I
did well and I can tell you later why I
did well and a lot and a lot of it is
has to do with the carnivore diet and
fasting along with the chemo
but then I asked for chemo break and I
had a chemo break it was nice to hang
out with the family without going for
every other week chemo treatment I had
June July August off and I just started
when I made that video and I
make sense now when I made that video
for you
last Wednesday before your carnivore
live that was my
coming back to chemo 20 so I did 27
rounds from May to May that was my 28th
round I'm starting all over again
calling it round one of the second
session I guess uh so that was Wednesday
I started chemo again and that's my
story up to now okay wow
wow
so much on the staging Jeff just for
people that don't know what how do they
determine the staging it's is it that's
it no that's a good question
I'm constantly asked that question and
uh yeah I'm wondering what formula they
use too but from my experience um
um
because every other week I'm in a Cancer
Clinic and I actually have like cancer
buddy friends that like there's this one
young fellow he's close to my age and he
we have the same thing he's he sat
beside me every single one uh and he had
stage four colon cancer but his colon
cancer he had it removed
and then it came back so anything that
comes back automatically from what my
understanding again I'm not a doctor is
stage four already
but for me stage four is because it has
my primary tumor in my colon has spread
to another location it's now in my liver
automatically becomes stage four I think
stage three is at the point where it's
large enough and the doctors can tell
it's ready to spread
um and then stage one and two is most of
the time pretty localized to one one spot
spot
and so you said you you didn't have any
surgery it's just the the chemo
treatments that's correct
um you know when I when I first got diagnosed
diagnosed
you know I wanted all this removed big
time all this poison inside of me that's
what I call it right and
I didn't have a surgery so everything
I'm learning though uh through a lot of
the doctors and from people's experience
with having cancer especially my my
buddy that sat beside me like he it
people when people have surgery
sometimes things come back and they
spread more so from my knowledge of that
I'm gaining over the past year and a half
half
um I'm happy where I am now I was
disappointed at first not having surgery
uh but I've had a lot of success over
the last year and a half by the regimen
that I put myself on
um I'm not going to say the doc like the
traditional doctors put me on I put
myself on it I've had a lot of success
and I'm gonna keep my goal is to keep
chopping away at this as much as I can
it sounds like a big part of this is you
taking your your health into your own
hands you doing your own research you
figuring things out I mean it sounds
like almost like you you kind of had to
beg just to get the tests on like what
did it it just would have gotten so bad
that it would have had to happen without
you kind of uh jumping in there and
saying no I need to have these tests
done is that kind of the case 100 and
I'm not here to you know uh I'm never
gonna mention anybody's name a doctor
I'm not here to throw my family doctor
under the bus or anything but like
I had to take control
I wish I would have took control maybe a
little bit earlier obviously when it was
still localized in the colon that would
have been amazing but
I'm glad I took control because if I
didn't if I just relied on
you know uh
you know today's medicine and the modern
day medicine and the doctors today that
you know that treat you the family
doctors and doctors and hospitals I you
know I know they're there for a good
reason good intention but if I just
relied on them
I I don't I don't my my best friend who
I'm going to tell you about later uh he
says because he's happy that I'm telling
my journey on uh
the YouTube that you you've kind of
motivated me to do Carrie is
you know I should be dead by now you
know what I mean if I if I just if I if
I didn't take control so
that's something I I was very fortunate
actually yesterday I get to speak to Dr
Sean Baker and he's like I love him yeah
he's a he's a b he's a beast like I I me
and my boys love watching him sorry yeah
no he's the greatest I'm so fortunate to
talk to some of these people but he said
something very similar he's like you
know these doctors mean well and they
have the best intentions but some of
these guys see a hundred patients a day
and you have to take control you have to
put it into your own hands for a lot of
these things here you're gonna it's not
gonna work out for you on on many fronts
but um
wow so 100 yes yeah I just want to say
too not to Sidetrack but I really
appreciate that you're uh you're sharing
your story with people because
it's these little individual examples
and stories I think really Inspire other
people and it's just amazing to me
because you're going through all of this
you're going through the chemo 28 rounds
of chemo you had the break but you're
back on it now I had you not told me all
this I'd be like this dude's just a
thriving carnivore like you're bright
and cheer you got the carnivore glow
you're excited you're passionate you're
fired up about it so yeah
I just fire it up like
I'm fired up because of people like you
though too Carrie like I was gonna I was
going to bring on like my carnivore
coffee that I because I watched your
video uh one of you making mistakes and
you doubting it and flexing and telling
your wife how you're pumped with
testosterone I you know what like
I've taken
everything that's going on in my life
and I guess that's why I chose my title
as a blessing what I'm going through so
um yeah
yeah I I love it yeah I got a little
obnoxious in that video I gotta go
you're awesome I gotta tone it down a
little bit but yeah I get fired up too
but I love the way you and your wife are
interacting that was a good one nice Jen
Jen right right yep yes yes yes
so yeah hey on that front that's a good
transition so I know you've got
um your wife and two sons as well that
you talk about how are they how are they
doing with everything I mean obviously
it's tough but it is tough and that that
is majority when I when I meet people um
um
that is the first thing they ask they
ask about my and I appreciate that
because they're in my life my two sons
I'm sure you can understand I think you
I I you have three daughters correct or
or four because you have triplets right yeah
yeah um
um
my two sons and my wife or my life uh
you know my parents and and you know I
obviously I have one sister but my
immediate household is everything and
I'll tell you something you know I know
I know it's tough on my wife because
she's still working full-time and she's
living with someone that has stage four
cancer not easy for her my my boys
because she has a stress stresses of
work and life and everything right
whereas my my sons and and my sister
who's also a teacher she taught me this
she says kids are pretty resilient uh
they'll be able to handle it you won't
be surprised because I know people that
hide things from their kids when it
comes to health and this and that but my
boys have been the biggest part of my
journey my two sons um
um
you know they come to doctor's
appointments with me with me when they
can uh you know they're heavily involved
in sports uh I'm on the road every night
bringing them to to soccer they play a
lot of sports but they mainly focus on
soccer and when we're driving to these
sports like sometimes most the time
we're driving 45 minutes one way and 45
minutes back
um we've created a habit where it's like
we're listening to guys like you Carrie
Anthony chafee Sean Baker Okay Candy
Barry we're listening to their their you
know their YouTube channels and
everything and my boys are excited
because you know and they they you know
the regimen I'm doing they're on board
with it so
um but anyways yeah and just I was just
wanted to go back because I remember you
said something just earlier Carrie is
you thanked me for for telling my story now
now
um you know again
you know as much as I seem like I'm an
outgoing you know energetic person and
and I and I am especially at work as a
high school phys ed teacher
um I think that's kind of It kind of
innately goes with the job but I in my
personal life I'm I'm an introvert
um I like to keep to myself I don't have
too many I have small group of friends
um I like to be at home when I diagnose
myself and when I was off work I was
hiding I didn't want anybody to know
what was happening to me
um this is kind of I've been built and
when I say in a panic I made that video
for you because enough was enough like I
I'm good I'm good where I am in my life
now I want to help I want to help other
people because I think you know you know
I'm a living test tube I'm not a doctor okay
okay
um I do have a kinesiology degree and
phys Ed degree and education degree but
and I joke around about it there's this
comedian here in Canada that
he he always wanted to be a high school
phys ed teacher and he and he always his
name is Jerry d i I got no problem
spitting that out he's pretty famous
around around and he always says doctors
are here phys Ed teachers are here so
you know I I do I do have a bit of a
background when it comes to health and
nutrition and we could talk about that
later because I'm kind of embarrassed
what I've taught the last 20 years
everything I've learned being a
carnivore for the past year and a half
but I do have a passion for it and I've
in the last year and a half Carrie
um the knowledge that I gained I'm not
calling myself an expert I'm not saying
I'm a carnivore expert I'm not saying
I'm a I'm a you know even a dietitian or
you know but I my knowledge base you
know I've learned so much in the last
year and a half by watching the videos
and studying the research and everything
that's going on and the studies that are
happening I've learned so much more than
I ever did in the in the two University
degrees that that I took 20 years ago
yeah that's wonderful I I I mean this
sincerely too I always believe in
choosing my words carefully and not just
flattery for the sake of flattery but
you nailed it with your YouTube video I
I said to you in the email afterwards
I'm like what does this guy do and then
I saw that you said you're an educator
I'm like oh that makes sense because you
just sat down and you like spewed out
the whole story like one take no edits
and I was stuck on every word so I
really I really like what you do I could
tell you've definitely done a lot of
research the thing too is there's
there's people out there for that you
know Dr Baker and Dr chafee and those
guys are great but it's the personal
story that you're you're you're going
through this you're going through this
thing and that's what touches people and
and motivates people and inspires people so
so
um yeah absolutely so yeah could you
tell us a little more now so you got the
cancer diagnosis and then when did what
were sort of the next steps and when did
you get into sort of the carnivore how
did that happen yes
um well like I said I started chemo uh
the end of May May of 2023 so so
2022 May of 2022 and I did about three
my chemo regimen and it this is the way
it is I I go in for chemo on a Wednesday
and I get a drip from the hospital a
certain type of chemo and then when I leave
leave
they push me with another type of chemo
and they attach a bottle of another type
of chemo that I carry on with me for two
days so it's a slow drip chemo I have to
wear this stupid fanny pack and I have
to sleep with it on and it's a real pain
in my butt for two days so from
Wednesday to Friday Fridays when I get
the bottle off um
um
that's the regimen of my I'm on SO
the first three rounds and sorry I do
that every other week every other Wednesday
Wednesday
for the first three rounds of chemo I
was pretty much on the standard American
diet you could say so if if anything you
could say the Mediterranean diet me
being Italian and uh you know having my
my mother cook for me my whole life and
she even trained my wife my wife's not
Italian but she makes really good sauce um
um
you know I was eating Mediterranean diet
for the first three rounds uh
but then I had someone pop into my life
uh that was part of my life he he was a
coaching colleague of mine coaching
friend because I as a high school phys
ed teacher I coach I've coached pretty
much every sport
and this gentleman
um that I coach with his name is uh
Dwight garlo and he's got no problem me
spitting this out there uh
he lives close to where my hometown here
in Brantford Ontario in Canada he lives
close to it he actually lives on on the
Native Reserve
um he's an indigenous uh fellow and
he started coaching with me six years uh
probably six or seven years ago to today
uh his daughter was in high school and
she was on my high school soccer team
that I was coaching and he started
coaching with me and he coaches a lot of
sports he's got a pat Dwight Dwight's
got a passion for a lot of things in
life and I'll explain that later but
um he started coaching with me and
anyways when he heard I was off
he sent me a text message like everybody
was sending me text messages and he said
hey Jeff heard you're off
hope everything's okay can I send you
some videos that's that's how he started
and I'm like videos I'm like what are
you like trying to make me feel good
send me some like movie video I don't
know what he was sending me right so the
next thing you know he's he sended me
videos and the first video he sent me
was Dr Berg I don't know if you if you
watch Dr Burr yeah
um and Dr Berger's interviewing the
French guy that had colon cancer
um and did the rib eye steaks the 21 Day
fat that was the first video I watched
anyways Dwight after watching a few
things I started entry and then Dwight
says can I come visit you so I remember
Dwight coming to visit me in my backyard
and this was like now this was like end
of June July I've already did about
three rounds of chemo
and he got you know he through text
through conference leading up to the
meeting with him when he came to visit me
me
he started telling me about you know diet
diet
and what I should be eating what I
shouldn't be eating
and supplements
and fasting and he's telling me all this
and I'm like and everything's kind of
starting to make sense and clue in so then
um in the meantime there's a whole bunch
of things going on I'm I'm doing
research on a natural path and I and I
end up
visiting a natural path and that's a
totally different topic if and you know
I'll cover that later in a different
episode maybe on my YouTube channel or
whatever but I I connected with through
the natural path I connected with this
other woman in my hometown who had colon
cancer and she did three day fast around
her chemo treatment which was similar to
me so
I was learning about fasting and I was
learning about carnivore for my friend Dwight
Dwight
and I decided to you know start
making up a regimen and embedding things
along with Chemo when I say embedding
things I you know diet
which was ketogenic diet at first it
turned into carnivore later um
um
supplements fasting exercise natural
path osteopath so my regimen keeps
growing I don't just rely on
chemotherapy and I think that's why I've
had success
but that is my story Dwight sorry if I
went on I'm sorry I mean Carrie if I
went on about
how I met my friend Dwight and how he
introduced me to carnivore um
um
that's that
Dwight sounds like your best friend now
like what a what a life changer that guy
is big time Big Time he's my best friend
and uh
I went like when I went off work in
2022 of January okay I was off that rest
of that semester but then last school
year okay
2022 2023 I actually uh you know
prescribed by my doctors actually my
natural path and uh my oncologist they
encourage exercise so I said well you
know what I can go back to like
volunteering and coaching some of the
sports teams at the high school I'm not
officially working but I'm volunteering
so Dwight and I um
um
last year we coached like four sports
teams together I wasn't working I'm off
I'm obviously going to be off for a long
time with stage four cancer but
um and having my best friend Dwight with
me makes it easy because you know what
when I when I do have to go for chemo
when I have these doctor's appointments
you know what I mean I know that him and
I were the same when it comes to
coaching so in that sense Dwight getting
back to what you said yes Dwight has
been my best friend
um on this journey um a size for my
family and uh you know I I credit
everything to him sure wow
wow
what what are like the chemo treatments
you're going in for what does that do
because I've heard different things on
chemo is it does it take a big toll does
it knock you down for a while or yeah uh
that's funny and and I heard that too
just like you heard
um how it's gonna really beat you up and
you know and then people are warning it
like you know chemo not only it's
supposed to attack the cancer cells they
say it attacks every single cell in your
body right and your immunity gets
lowered quite up you know your your
immunocompromised I was wearing a mask a
lot last year when I first started uh my chemotherapy
chemotherapy
um when I did those first three rounds
and I said I was on the standard
American diet or Mediterranean diet
whatever you want to call it uh I did
have ups and downs like when I came home
with that bottle attached oh I was
drained and then like when it came off
on the Friday Saturday and Sunday I was
drained you know the a little bit of not
not feeling nauseous
um it wasn't until
I got on my regiment
of diet and fasting
that my symptoms totally changed my
energy level totally changed okay and it
got better as I as I became to master
those things with diet and fasting and
supplements and I'll tell you
I really realized it because when I came
back to chemo just last week
um I wasn't into my regiment again
because what ended up happening and this
is you know I I don't think I shared
this with you Carrie uh
Wednesday when I made that video for you
uh and I started chemo the day before on
Tuesday I buried my father
oh my father yeah my father passed away okay
okay
um so
I had a lot going on in my life last
week and it's very emotional very tough um
um
so on the Monday of last week was
actually my son's birthday we didn't
celebrate because we're burying no no
who is my yes Italian and grandfather
were burying him on Tuesday and
um so but I ate you know I had a meal
with my son for his birthday Peter he
has 15th birthday and you know we we ate
uh my wife and I and two my two sons but
then on Tuesday my dad's funeral
uh there was a reception after it and I
felt the need to eat so I went into
and I I ate carnivore I'm not saying I
didn't like I didn't cheat or anything I
ate carnivore for those two days but
then I went into my chemo
without a fast because my my routine was
uh Sunday nights
I would stop eating I would do a
five-day fast around chemo so Sunday
Monday Tuesday Wednesday I'd have chemo
Thursday I'd be fasting Friday when the
bottle comes off I start eating again I
start consuming calories
so I had a routine going that like you
said Carrie
when I introduced my diet and My fasting
and I and I pretty much know I kind of
know like I don't even have to do a keto
test like I know actually I do do a keto
test when I go for chemo if I start
fasting on Sunday
when I go for chemo on Wednesday when
they test my urine I have ketones
overflowing and I know that's like I'm
in a good state of ketosis
um that anyways when I'm in ketosis
which I am quite often through my diet
and fasting my symptoms are really good
like I I don't like I still get kind of
tired for the Wednesday Thursday Friday
but this past weekend like Saturday
Sunday I was I was back at it like I you
know and and this week I've been
phenomenal like I've been feeling
optimal as optimal as I can feel
um and and I totally 100 contribute it
to to diet diet and fasting
wow and so this this sorry and moving
and exercise right okay those are key
too sorry so this whole regimen uh you
were guided towards this from your
friend Dwight watching some videos but I
mean did you kind of formulate this
we're like okay I'm doing the chemo on
this day so I got to start fasting this
was there anything out there like that
or did you just kind of put all this
together with all of your research
it yeah that's a good question it it was
a little bit of everything so do I
got Dr Berg first video learning about
fasting uh the French fellow had the
same thing he did 21 day fast and he ate
rib eye steaks that's all he ate is rib
eye steaks okay and then I had that one
for another friend that that that woman
I met from Brantford uh who had it and
she she started she was in she's in
remission now she had it for two years
colon cancer and hers was in the liver
lungs everywhere and her she wrote a
book and it's called My Miracle Journey
um uh her name's uh and I got no problem
spitting it out there because she's all
over the place too her name's Ronnie Campbell
Campbell
um and uh so from her she had the same
thing I had and her regimen was
Tuesday Wednesday Thursday no no eating
okay and she was pretty ketogenic she
wasn't carnivore I think she was a
little bit and this is where I'm sure we
can get in discussions later uh Carey uh
I'm not a big fan of what they call the
keto diet because you know Society has
you know they slapped the word keto and
everything without even knowing the
meaning of things and I'm not a big fan
of edge
um for many reasons everything I'm
learning from Dr Anthony chafee
um and even just all the doctors in
general what I'm learning what I'm
learning from them so you know that
Ronnie uh the videos Dwight
I started piecing everything together
and you know another one of the other
doctors I'll tell you right now is uh
I'm huge on his Dr Thomas Seyfried I
mentioned it earlier okay he's like uh
he's a professor of cancer biology I
think he's off top my head I think he's
at Harvard
um one of the famous universities in the
States but Thomas Seaford you know he's
a veteran when it comes to studying
cancer and as a metabolic disease okay
and that's another thing like I don't
this is not this is not heretic this is
not a genetic disease okay I think it's
a metabolic disease as the mitochondrion
gone wrong and
Thomas Seifert says it as it is if you
block glucose and you block glutamine
tumors can't grow he and he says it he
said he he actually I I listen to him
every day because he makes he gives me
hope so I um and
and
a ketogenic Giant was a way for me to start
start
but I never would have thought I'm
getting I'm I'm
pretty much carnivore I I'm not I know
Carrie you've done the last six months
you've done like the lion diet which is
amazing and I think I do need to do that
soon I'll have a week I have weeks at a
time where I do that but when I say on
Carnivore you know I've graduated from
like keto carnivore to you know 70
carnivore 30 keto to like
carnivore sometimes to like
carnival animal base and I'm not animal
based like the way Paul saladino is I'm
like he he kind of drives me nuts when
he says he's animal based because he
eats too much way too much way too much
glucose and fructose okay right so
um but if he doesn't have cancer you
know what I mean so
right now when I say I'm carnivore I'm
animal products like I I do eat the good
cheeses like the asiago cheese the
harder cheese it's not the fake cheeses
I eat eggs like crazy because I think
eggs are life and there's so many
vitamins and minerals in there
um and mainly red meat rib eyes like
Dwight's hook me up with a butcher where
we're my freezer's loaded with Ribeyes
um ground beef
um you know I do eat chicken and I do
eat pork and I do eat seafood but you
know what I mean like once in a while
beef is my is my main staple
and it's become my son's my my two sons
their main staple too uh Peter is pretty
much carnivore Dante my younger son is
working towards it
um my wife I'm really proud of she's
she's cute she's keto she loves her veg
and and she's got to do what she's got
to do right in her life and that's fine
um but you know I'm doing what I'm doing uh
uh
because I have cancer and because
everything I'm learning and piecing together
together
right I just as a side note I love that
one of your son's name is Dante
oh are you still there okay sorry I think
that I think I'm back now can you hear
me okay yes I am yeah okay yeah I think
I was gonna say um yes
I love that one of your sons names is
Dante I only know one other Dante that's
Dante Ferrigno uh carnivore diet lion
diet and that's how I learned about
carnivore was from Dante so that's kind
of cool really
Dr perigno
yep frign no freedom
that's amazing
I didn't know yeah
Dante Ferrigno the athlete
yeah no you know that no he's uh yeah
sorry there's a little delay I think
he's a YouTuber he's been doing uh lion
diet for a little over two years he's
about to hit a thousand days on Lion
diet but he was one of the yeah if you
get a chance check him out Ferrigno freedom
freedom
uh he was one of the first people to
document on YouTube doing uh carnivore
or lion diet it's kind of remarkable his
his results he had but
I'll be watching him tonight for sure
yeah so
Jeff you mentioned um you mentioned a
little bit and you did another video I
think it was your second video titled
what caused my cancer can you talk about
that a little more yes um
first off I love what we're doing here
and I think I need to do a little bit
more of this because this is a little
more cat uh casual professional but
casual uh my two sons you know you know
my first video was fine I was pretty
beat up from chemo but I was pretty
monotoned and robotic and my second one
I my son said yeah Dad you're a little
bit too robotic in that video but you
know I did the whole point of everything
is to deliver the message and and to
start a network for people that are
going through uh cancer or similar type
autoimmune diseases or any any metabolic
disease that you know they can grab bits
and pieces from me so
I now realize like sometimes I'm like
even my buddy Dwight's like
your next video needs to be you need to
tell your story right like you need to
start with that right and I think I
think you helped me out here with this
video Gary is that you know you got me
telling my story so I maybe I jumped the
gun a little bit there on uh my second
video when I titled it what caused my
cancer but I just you know I I explained
that I've learned that
even though they they did
they did a test through uh
through an autopsy to see if I my cancer
was genetic caused uh hereditary and I
what I'm not uh even though my mom on a
different story uh my dad who passed
away he passed away from leukemia my mom
had uh a form of cancer years years ago
but she beat it but she hers was genetic
and uh she had immunotherapy help her
out so I was kind of at the time when I
didn't know much about cancer much about
diet or much about metabolic diseases at
the time when the genetic uh
test was done on my cancer I was a
little disappointed because I kind of I
had a good experience with immunotherapy
through my mom so I was kind of hoping
um that
I had genetic cancer but anyways
genetics and mutations and this and that
to me that's one small little variable
from what I've learned can cause cancer
all cancers I believe from everything
I've been learning is it it's it's
metabolic disease and that's why I
wanted to make that video that second
video what caused my cancer
I believe and through all my research
and you know my conversations with my
unofficial Dr Dwight uh my buddy
he said you caused your cancer Jeff and
I I I caused my cancer and I caused it
through lifestyle I I think in the video
I mentioned uh oxidative stress on your
cells which uh you know that's a
lifestyle thing like in terms of uh you
know what I talk I mentioned about like
having a vitamin D deficiency
um I mentioned uh
carbs diet I mentioned uh lifestyle and
I even added in alcohol there
um because that's all part of oxidative
stress uh and not that I was I'm an
alcoholic like during the school year
like I you know the odd time on a Friday
night I have a drink right but uh and
this as a teacher Summer's off sometimes
you know and going on vacations and
stuff you know I would abuse that and I
did that for 15 years and
you know I'm sure there's a lot of
adults in the world that do stuff like
that but you know
the way I'm built I've learned the way
I'm I'm built from my osteopath and uh
maybe doing all these things the
lifestyle put a lot of stress on
cells in my body in a certain way so um
um
I think I caused my disease and I'm I'm
trying to believe and hope that I can
reverse my disease as much as possible
by doing the regimen that I'm doing
right yeah thank you for sharing that
because that's the thing like when I
hear cancer
you know it's always like well what
caused it it always seems like we don't
know we can't we can't figure it out it
sounds like you got kind of a good idea
wow based on your experience
yeah my doctors they when I said when I
asked my doctors like the oncologists
and the and that colon liver spatulas
their answer to me you know what it's
not genetic it's a fluke it's just a
fluke I'm so sorry to say I'm they would
say I'm so sorry it's a flute but it's
it's not a fluke I think like everything
I'm learning especially about diet
and the stuff that we're eating
causes a lot of problems right so um
um
you know I these are all inferences you
know that I'm making and you know I'm
not a doctor and I can't say I can't say
that when I tell it what caused my
cancer this is me what I believe
um it caused my cancer and I think uh
like I said earlier I'm the living test
test tube and I can see it in what I'm
doing every single day now for the past
year and a half
wow so so okay now then you started
doing carnivore and you you mentioned
this a little bit in the other video but
it's gonna be a lot of people here that
maybe didn't see that one so how are
things going now well you kind of said
this already but you've you you've been
feeling better
um not as drained during chemo and
things like that have you noticed other
things changing with you as you're doing
carnivore yes that's that's a great question
question um
when you
when I say
um everybody I mean uh everybody in in the
the
Community I live in especially the high
school I teach at I'm known as Mr
prosperous the high school phys ed
teacher and I always looked very fit so
when I left work and I was actually just
I was at my school earlier today and I
was talking to a close teacher friend of mine
mine
um and she asked me she's like because
she was asking about my story a little
bit actually this morning because I told
her I had to go home to film this and
she said like yeah everybody like
everybody knew you as fit and that
you're a Mr prosperous fit and healthy
and like you're strong and I taught not
only I teach and coach all the sports I
created a weightlifting course that I
taught for the past 10 years
um but you know what I was always for
the past ever since I've been and this
happens to many of us when we get into
our careers
after you know high school and
University you get to your adult weight
and I was not happy with my adult weight like
like
you know I've been on my journey for a
year and a half but if you even go back
to two years ago before I decided to
become a vegetarian when I said I was
having earlier I was saying I I was
bloated and everything like
a month before that like I'm talking
like two years ago three two to three
years ago
I was the heaviest ever 211 pounds and
nobody would nobody would see I but now
when I look at photos and Dwight
actually my best friend Dwight sent me a
photo of us coaching together like four
years ago and like my face looks
thick like I look thick I'm I'm wearing like
like
large or extra large shorts to like
because I had because I I had to I
wanted to hide I wanted to hide like
what I was storing in my gut you know
what I mean like um
um
I wasn't happy I was still I was playing
soccer as an adult I was coaching a lot
I was moving I was still doing all these
things I was performing uh but I wasn't
happy I knew I was way too heavy so
so
carnivore what ended up happening and
when I when I especially with the fast
thing but most but I'll tell you I'll
tell you my regimen here when I started
going on Carnivore and fasting I started
dropping the weight immediately within
the first couple months and I got down I
got down to about the lowest I ever saw
was 148 pounds from 211 to 148. wow like
within with like like within months of
being carnivore and fasting and the
fasting part of it a lot of that was
water retention and I figured that out
but once I started to really take
control of my body
160 I'm 160 right now and I've been in
for the past the whole pretty much
majority of my chemo regimen last year
and even this past summer
which I cheated a lot on fasting I
didn't fast that much over the summer on
my chemo break but I ate a lot like I
ate a ton of carnivore and so basically
on my regimen during my year
I would basically eat one week
and not eat the next week when I'm on
chemo the five days so when I'm eating I
eat like I eat a lot and I learned this
from like Anthony chafee I learned this
from Sean Baker Kennedy Berry uh
to eat and like Anthony chafee even said
he eats late at night and so now I was
always concerned about that like yeah
but I've learned if you eat carbs yeah
don't go to bed but I'm eating like meat
like I'm eating pork rinds a bowl of
pork rinds before I go to bed and I feel
fine or or if I have some leftover uh
beef patties from dinner there's two or
three left in the fridge like I'll eat
them at 10 o'clock at night and I go to
bed like a lion does right like so I'm
I'm eat I'll eat like me and my boys
I'll tell you a story we
we've added this into our regimen when
we're on the go because I'm on the go
quite a bit with them for sports so when
I don't have time to cook for them at
home and we're in a rush and we need to
stop at like we have uh a w here in
Canada if you have a w and you have a w
there yeah it's supposed to be supposed
to be grass-fed beef whatever I'm sure
it's not all right I'm sure it's not
grass finished beef but anyways
it's supposed to be real healthy for a
fast food joint but we even go to uh
Wendy's and we go to McDonald's and we
grab patties we just grab patties so so
my sons like my son Peter before a
soccer game or even a practice
he's he's like five five patties like
five quart like five quarter pound
patties like wow like like an hour
before a soccer practice and if you
watch him perform it's like he he he's
he's working his butt off and he's
optimal and he doesn't complain he never
feels bloated and I don't feel bloated
either like I'll eat five or six Burgers
when we go to McDonald's to get burgers
we get those little thin ones right so
we my son Peter gets like ten I get like
eight wait you know we started doing
like I think you taught me this and my
buddy Dwight taught me this uh I carry
Redmond fine salt with me and we still
put on it and then we just and we eat it
um so I can eat as much as I want and I
also have mastered fasting even when I'm
fasting like in the past year the lowest
I'll get is like 158 when I go in for
chemo when they weigh me 158 and then
like it's 158 to 162. and then when I'm
eating like crazy I'm like one sick I'm
162. but yeah like I've taken taken
control and it's such a it's such an
amazing relief because I know this is
going to sound kind of cheesy uh Carrie but
but
like the food I was eating before
was way too much in control of me way
too much in control of my body yes like
like carbs basically carbs whatever you
want to call it because carbs sugar
glucose are all the same molecule like they
they
they were they were you know they were
hiding everything like you know what
when I talk about earlier like I wish I
would have did something earlier about
my colon cancer that's probably was
there for five years
it was hidden
I'm not just talking by fat but but by
everything by inflammation by you know
by your body adapting to all these
horrible foods that you're putting in
your body so now on Carnivore I just I
feel like no The food doesn't control me
I could I control it like you know you
know that's that's I just kind of came
up with that right now to be honest with
you I love that I know it sounds kind of
cheesy too I've been I had that saying
for a while that I'm the captain of my
own ship now I'm in control yes it's a
carnivore because I didn't go into
carnivore to be in control but it's a
complete life shift on like every aspect
of things it's really weird you really
realize how liberating it is to be on
Carnivore and and how much of just you
were that food was controlling us before
because it's everything every meal what
are we gonna eat what are we gonna do
and it's like none of that anymore I
think the biggest word is inflammation
and I think even like even you taught
like I know from watching your videos
you talk about your toe quite a bit like
and that would that that's inflammation yes
yes
and you got written you got rid of it
right 100 gone and they were gonna do
surgery on that toe so that's crazy
that's crazy and this guy
I always gotta shout out my friend bill
but this guy here in Alaska 700 pound
bill that was that was his most amazing thing
thing
um going to the bathroom every day was
agonizing and within like two weeks he's
like Carrie it's how does this happening
so fast I said inflammation it's just
the inflammation that that's one
encouraging thing for people that are
thinking about starting carnivore is
that that's one thing that happens
pretty quick on carnivores that
inflammation starts yeah yes big time
and people should be more worried about
it and they're not in the general public
it's always you're gonna die of a heart
attack what's your cholesterol look like
and meanwhile they're fully inflamed and
their metabolic health is horrible yeah
thinking about the wrong things but
that's so cool with your boys too I I
can't imagine I've when I did the I got
the little air fryer there when I did
the 24 hour live stream yes I I'm right
around 162. at my heaviest I was 262 and
I recently got down so I'm down 100
since my heavies I didn't lose all of
that on Carnival I lost most of it I did
some of it on keto before like you were
talking about yes yes and then I I kept
falling off because of all those stupid
keto snacks and keto this and that but
anyhow out um I started getting really
really hungry when I lost most of this
weight when I did that 24 hour live
stream I had two rib eyes two strip
steaks and I had two huge bowls of
scrambled eggs with ground beef and
bacon in them and I was still hungry now
granted that was kind of a taxing thing
for 24 hours but it's I've been I've
been eating a lot too and it was just
like you said Jeff I uh you don't feel
it like before yeah you feel heavy you
know what I you know I sometimes
there's a lot of things I'm sure like I
because I hear the way you interact and
talk to your wife too and my wife is
like I try to explain to her like I
don't get full and she's like stop
making this up you don't get full you
want you like she gets frustrated with
me sometimes when I'm trying to explain
how much success I'm having with my diet
and it's it's the absolute truth like I
you know
I I don't feel I don't feel bloated and
full ever like I you know I remember
Anthony chafee just saying all the time
and me and my boys have learned this
like as soon as the the meat stops
tasting good while you eat it you stop
right and then and it's not it's that
simple but you know what like an hour
later I'm hungry again and I'm like like
not no I don't need to be hungry not
like the carb crave hungry but I I could
eat another three or four burgers or or
a couple more pieces of ribeye if I need
it if if I if I wanted to I don't have
to but if I wanted to right it's a it's
a different kind of hunger not like that
old the Carb Day hunger where it's yes
sugar Cravings it's different for sure
it's cool how uh you talk about Dr
chafee have you seen um his refrigerator uh
uh
uh from time to time yeah I'll have to
send you he did a short I'll have to
send you this video because sure life
goals his refrigerator you open the door
and it's a hundred percent meat there's
nothing else in it and it's all of these
rib eyes and steaks and they're all on
racks and he ages them in the fridge but
the whole thing is just full of full of
meat I was like when I had a man I had
to show that yeah amazing
so man I'm really enjoying talking do
you have uh
I can't believe it's almost been an hour
already I've got plenty of time but I
don't want to I want to be respectful of
your time so I forgot it okay pretty
good today I I was really excited to
meet you Carrie so I tried to I tried to
block up as much time as possible
because I didn't know I didn't know how
much how long this would take so yeah
I'm having a good time thanks likewise
and I'd love to do this again anytime
but we could talk about that a little
bit more um
um
with your sons too that that is amazing
they're doing that I like when you see
you you guys love Dr chafee I do too
when you look at him and you're like
this guy is like human 2.0 or something
because he has no surgery for like 18
hours a day and then he's on YouTube for
until two three o'clock when does he
have time he doesn't have time to work
out yeah and he he looks he looks like a
superhero or something he looks like a
bodybuilder it's it's carnivore now
imagine for your sons that's why I kept
saying like this next generation of kids
man if they started eating imagine Dr
chafee because he's only been doing it
five ten years if he had done that as a
child now your sons are getting into it
that's I'm so happy for them that's
really cool thanks a lot and you you
nailed it like imagine if our all our
kids you know got on board in in today's
world and when I you know when I
mentioned what I mentioned earlier that
I was a little bit embarrassed what I've
taught like I taught I taught nutrition
to my health classes and I you know the
the Canada food guy and probably
probably similar to the American food
guide like it's just it's all set up
wrong in terms of what we should be
eating and and from what I've learned okay
okay
um and
you know my buddy Dwight because I keep
referring to him but because he's become
my best friend and we coach together and
and he he's an athlete and I'm an
athlete and you know he's like and he
knows my sons and he knows how I you
know I live my life with my sons every
single day trying to make them as
optimal as possible not you know not as
an athlete but in school when it comes
to like mental Clarity and smarts and
everything right so Dwight was like yeah
like we're from the start when I started
having success with this he's like yeah
you got to try to get Peter and Dante
there too and I was like you know at
first when people hear that
um especially my wife she she was a
little bit you know a little bit stand
backish on it like you know we're doing
this to our kids we're taking all these
you know healthy vegetables and fruits
and and this away from our kids like
well they're growing Yeah the more and
more we learn and the more and more we see
see
um again like my sons are living tests
like my son Peter you know he's 15. uh
you know I'm five foot ten he's he's six
foot one already okay he's still he's
still growing
um he's getting stronger he's he's
always been really skinny but now he's
starting to fake it thicken up and get stronger
stronger
um and he feels really good when he eats
meat and my son's my son Dante's having
the same success okay so and when you
look at them when people always like
people want to judge so much you know I
mean Dr Anthony chafee nailed it like
you're gonna have a lot of haters out
there and you have a lot of people you
know thinking thinking you're crazy and
what you're doing and everything but you
know if you look at my son Dante and
Peter they have the glow too you know
what I mean you can you can just tell
they're not missing any you know they're
not missing any essential nutrients
because they can get all those essential
nutrients from from a ribeye steak or or
any types of pretty much all types of
beef okay and you know then they're the
same thing they eat eggs uh Peter
doesn't eat cheese because there's bad
things in cheese too I I gotta try to
eliminate that right
um so
you know
yeah and you you can even talk about the
science like the human growth the human
growth hormones increased when you're a car when you're a carnivore and these
car when you're a carnivore and these boys that are growing okay like would
