Joe Rogan, at the age of 52, is in absolutely incredible shape after completing the whole of January on a purely carnivorous based diet.

Rogan is known around the world for a few different things – he is a regular commentator and interviewer employed by Dana White’s UFC, as well as being an avid mixed martial artist himself.

Alongside his work in the world of MMA and the UFC, Rogan is also a successful stand-up comedian and is currently on tour in the United States – he has previously noted how unlikely the two professions go together but went on to say that for whatever reason, it just seems to work.

As well as that, he hosts one of the most popular podcasts on the planet - ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’ in which he has world-famous guests on to discuss anything from stand-up, MMA to conspiracy theories.

The one main thing Rogan keeps as a consistent theme across his many platforms is his promotion of leading an active and healthy lifestyle. He is often posting stories to his social media of him and his dog going for a run (HIS DOG, IN FACT, HAS HIS OWN INSTAGRAM PAGE!) as well as posting post-workout videos of him at the gym either after weight training or sparring.

Before the start of the new year, Rogan vowed to lean up his physique and become an even healthier version of himself and, as a result, he embarked on the ‘carnivore diet’.

After a full month of dedication, Rogan finally revealed to his followers via his social media the changes he feels both physically and mentally.

Joe has stated many times on his podcast that a good workout often leads to a better state of mind and increased productivity.

Rogan revealed that he has lost a total of 12lbs since the start of January, losing his ‘love handles’ and has “gained a ton of energy”.

He cited that his energy levels used to fluctuate somewhat and also mentioned to his listeners that he, in fact, suffers from an immune disorder known as ‘Vitiligo’ of which had appeared to improve since the diet – though he is unsure of the direct correlation.

Rogan closed out his message by stating how it was the ‘best he had felt in a long time, and it’s only been one month’.

The carnivore diet includes cuts out all vegetables, fruit, grains, nuts and seeds in favour of meat, fish and other animal foods such as eggs and a few dairy products here and there.

Last year, Rogan stepped on the scales on the set of his podcast and weighed 205lbs (14.5st) – he later stated that it was the ‘fattest he had ever been’.

Rogan went onto say:

"I had a belly; a lot of people made fun of me, fat-shamed me. I lost all my fat, I lost the belly, I lost my love handles.

"I don't know if I'm gonna keep eating like this, but it was tremendously beneficial.

"I also have an auto-immune disorder, it's called vitiligo, and my vitiligo improved, I had a bunch of white spots fill in, so, I don't know.

"I went into this thing thinking this carnivore diet was wacky and probably thought it was nonsense, but this is as good as I've felt in a long time and it's just one month.”

Rogan made fans aware in a jokey social media post that he had suffered a ‘severe’ bout of diarrhoea but noted that this passed and now ‘feels great’.

At the age of 52, Joe Rogan puts all of us to shame and is definitely one to watch, if not for health advice, tips and tricks, but because he is so damn entertaining!
