RFK Jr. starts most mornings with steak for breakfast, a big bowl of grass-fed yogurt topped with cream, and a generous side of sauerkraut or kimchi.
A year ago, full-body MRIs showed HHS Secretary Kennedy’s organs coated in dangerous visceral fat, despite his lean appearance and four months of atrial fibrillation episodes. His doctor prescribed a strict carnivore diet of meat plus fermented foods like sauerkraut, kimchi, and grass-fed yogurt—no carbs—which he followed for about 250 days. Follow-up scans revealed a 40% drop in visceral fat after 30 days, then the lowest 1st percentile levels, with 20 pounds lost and regained as muscle, and no heart issues since. Kennedy noted half the cabinet follows it too, while emphasizing individual metabolisms vary and sharing sparked personal diet stories from weight loss to energy boosts.
