In this episode, I sit down with Jonathan Griffiths—British carnivore, bodybuilder, nutritionist, and founder of Carnivore Muscle—to explore his powerful journey of transforming health, physique, and mindset through science-backed carnivore strategies while navigating autism and chronic pain.
Diagnosed with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) and living with autism, Jonathan turned his challenges into strengths, using a meat-based diet and disciplined training to rebuild his body and help others do the same. With a degree in human nutrition and 16+ years of lifting experience, he combines hard science with real-world results.
Here’s what we cover in the episode:
Jonathan’s personal battles with CRPS and autism—and how carnivore became his foundation for pain management and mental clarity.
The science behind carnivore-based body composition coaching—why meat works for muscle, fat loss, and metabolic health.
How he helps clients overcome plateaus with personalized, no-nonsense nutrition strategies.
The role of resistance training in neurological and physical resilience—especially for neurodivergent individuals.
Practical advice for adapting carnivore to your lifestyle, whether you’re a lifter, desk worker, or healing from chronic issues.
If you’re looking for proof that limitations can fuel greatness—or just want to optimize your physique with carnivore—Jonathan’s story is a masterclass in turning adversity into advantage.
