This Man Inspired Ken Berry and Millions. THEN He Vanished
In a Nutshell

Peter Bob Briggs initially believed he had failed and moved away from the carnivore world completely, then disappeared entirely. After watching the documentary "Healing Humanity," he realized the significant impact his early work had on the movement.
The highlight of the weekend was seeing Briggs interact with Dr. Ken Perry at the "Low Carb for Better Health" conference. Briggs was one of the first individuals to speak about consuming a proper human diet before the term "appropriate human diet" was commonly used. His video "Butter Makes Your Pants Fall Down" from approximately 12 years ago inspired millions of people.
Briggs lost 140 pounds and experienced significant healing before disappearing from the platform. He had built a channel with 18,500 subscribers by late 2016 but felt he had failed when he left, believing the cause was almost lost.
Dr. Ken Perry's face lit up upon learning Peter Bob Briggs was present. Dr. Perry stated that Briggs inspired him in his early days and that he had been watching Briggs's own videos. Perry requested an introduction to Briggs, demonstrating the mutual respect between the two men who have given hope and healing to the world.
The documentary "Healing Humanity" celebrates doctors who treat root causes rather than managing disease. It also celebrates individual healing stories as the most inspiring content for people. The film documents experiences of people following a meat-eating diet as a therapeutic approach and way of life, not simply a meat-based system.
Multiple viewers reported life-changing experiences after watching the documentary:
- A science teacher noted the information contradicted what they teach about cellular respiration, energy use, glucose uptake, and food breakdown
- Viewers described waking up wanting to live instead of praying for death at night
- The documentary was called the best about low-carb or meat-eating diets due to its combination of science, doctors, and personal stories
- Viewers recommended trying the diet for 30 days to experience benefits
The documentary is available for pre-order at healinghumanity.movie for $10, with access beginning October 23. Pre-order data is used to reach distributors like Netflix to spread the message of hope and healing to millions of people.
A 45-minute video was created featuring people stating "Dr. Perry, you saved my life." Briggs was stunned to learn his work had inspired Dr. Perry, who is credited with saving multiple lives through his content. Viewers from various locations, including Taiwan, reported Dr. Perry saved their lives and provided tools to control health and personal life.
Briggs expressed feeling extremely humbled by the recognition, noting he is just a working-class guy from a small town who wanted to help someone. The experience reinforced that individuals never know where a shared seed of information will end up. Briggs emphasized that sharing simple personal stories or documentaries can have profound, unknown impacts on others.
