Don Matesz (@DonMatesz) is the author of the Hypercarnivore Diet book with the subtitle Eat Meat, Get Healthy. Plants Optional. He’s also the founder of Full Range Strength, a blog and YouTube channel on using bodyweight and band-resisted exercise to build strength and muscle with minimal time and financial investment.
Don switched to a hypercarnivore diet in mid-2017 after decades of practicing and authoring books on plant-based diets to relieve his psoriasis and eczema. He’s also improved his skin, digestive health, and body composition dramatically.
The Hypercarnivore Diet is one of – if not the – best book written on the carnivore diet and goes in-depth on many important topics such as micronutrients, sustainable sourcing, common myths and much more.
