After six months on carnivore, my bloodwork looked like a mess by conventional standards. My LDL had tripled, and doctors wanted to put me on statins. So I sat down with heart surgeon Dr. Philip Ovadia and asked him what he thought about my numbers. What would he make of my bloodwork, knowing how I was eating and how I felt? Here’s what he had to say.
