Episode 261: Sarkis Chahinian and Vic Basmadjian

Thank you for joining us for another episode of the Low Carb MD
Podcast. Sarkis Chahinian is a gym owner, trainer, and
nutrition enthusiast from Montreal, Canada. With the help of
his friend—and ours—Vic Basmadjian, he was introduced and
converted to the low-carb and carnivore diet.


In this conversation, Dr. Tro. Dr. Brian, Sarkis, and Vic talk
about how Sarkis became interested in fitness and came to own a
gym, Sarkis’ experience opening a gym in Canada during the
Covid pandemic, Sarkis’ mental health journey, Sarkis’ dietary
journey from “bro dieting” to keto dieting following Vic’s
advice, regulatory capture and how it effects food and dietary
advice, the primary ways in which Sarkis’ diet has changed and,
consequently, which aspects of his life have changed for the
better, changing the way you think about and interact with
food, the perfect partnership of eating right and exercising,
the power of community and collaboration to effect positive
change in people’s lives, and why stress may be the biggest
single factor determining dietary success or failure.
