Can a Carnivore-Based Diet Be the Key to Reducing Knee Pain Naturally?

Published September 17th, 2024 by Nathans Family Chiropractic

If you’re sick of dealing with chronic knee pain and tired of hearing the same old “solutions” that just mask the problem, it’s time for a different approach. You’ve probably tried it all—pain meds, physical therapy, maybe even considered surgery. But what if I told you that one of the most powerful tools for fighting knee pain is already sitting on your plate?

At Nathans Family Chiropractic, we’re all about giving people REAL results—helping them heal, not just “manage” their pain. And one of the emerging approaches that we’re seeing work wonders for our patients is the carnivore-based diet. Yep, we’re talking about an animal-focused, nutrient-dense diet that could help reduce the very inflammation causing your knee pain.

Let’s dive into why this diet—championed by experts like Dr. Paul Saladino—just might be the missing piece of the puzzle.

1. Can the Carnivore Diet Help Joint Pain?

Here’s the deal: most of your knee pain is driven by inflammation. The problem is, the Standard American Diet (with all its sugars, carbs, and processed junk) is like pouring gasoline on the fire. Enter the carnivore diet, where you strip away all that inflammatory nonsense and focus on foods that actually help your body recover.

The carnivore diet revolves around nutrient-rich animal products. Think grass-fed beef, organ meats, eggs, and fish. These foods pack a punch, delivering omega-3s, zinc, vitamins D and K2—all the stuff that helps reduce inflammation and nourish your joints. Combine this diet with our SoftWave therapy as part of the Knee Reset Method, and you’re looking at a powerful one-two punch against joint pain.

2. What Foods Get Rid of Knee Pain?

Look, if you want to tackle knee pain head-on, the first thing you’ve got to do is stop fueling the inflammation. Most people think they need a miracle cure when, in reality, what they need is to cut out the foods that are making things worse. On the carnivore diet, it’s all about simplicity and nutrient density.

Here are the MVPs of this diet:

  • Grass-Fed Beef: Loaded with omega-3s and CLA (that’s conjugated linoleic acid, for those keeping score), this is your anti-inflammatory powerhouse.
  • Organ Meats: Liver, heart, kidney—these are nutritional gold mines, packed with vitamins and minerals that support joint health.
  • Fatty Fish: Salmon and other fatty fish deliver a serious dose of omega-3s, which help calm down the inflammation wrecking your knees.

And for those of you who need a little sweetness in life, small amounts of honey and seasonal fruits provide natural sugars without kicking up inflammation like processed junk does.

3. Can the Carnivore Diet Reduce Inflammation?

Here’s where things get interesting. The carnivore diet works by eliminating common triggers of inflammation—grains, refined sugars, processed oils. These foods are often the culprits behind the chronic inflammation that’s keeping your knees in pain.

When you focus on animal-based foods, you’re giving your body what it actually needs—omega-3s, collagen, bioavailable vitamins. All of these help reduce inflammation on a cellular level. And when you combine that with our Knee Reset Method and SoftWave therapy? You’re not just treating the symptoms—you’re addressing the root cause of the inflammation itself.

4. Does the Carnivore Diet Heal You?

Let’s be clear: nothing is a miracle cure, but the carnivore diet comes pretty close. When you eliminate the garbage that’s been holding your body back and fuel it with nutrient-dense, inflammation-fighting foods, you give your body the chance to heal itself.

At Nathans Family Chiropractic, we see the carnivore diet as a game-changing tool that works alongside SoftWave therapy to promote real healing—not just temporary relief. By feeding your body with the right foods, you’re giving yourself the best chance to reduce knee pain and inflammation for good.
