John Manins was always interested in health and fitness as a former New Zealand middle distance running champion but when he started working 90 hours a week launching his business he began drinking every night to mask his ongoing chronic depression. One day he noticed blood in his stool and rushed himself off to hospital. It was bowel cancer.
This led John down the rabbit hole of health and biohacking, finding Wim Hoff, meditation and carnivore. He was told to do chemo even though the potential upside was only 3%... He refused, beat cancer without chemo and is now fighting fit.
The next stage of evolution for John was discovering regenerative agriculture. He bought a farm and is creating his own little slice of paradise plus creating quality nutrition in the form of organic beef.
Want to go strict carnivore (meat, salt and water only) for one month? It sounds challenging and maybe you’ve tried and failed before but with a proven system for success including group accountability, you can do it!
