Chris is a professional touring and studio musician in Nashville, TN. He has also been a foodie his whole life, and he’s been cooking since he was old enough to sit on the counter and help his mom in the kitchen. He grew up learning that cooking was a beautiful way to say “I love you” to those around you.

Unfortunately after several decades of poor food choices and a lack of good information about health, Chris found himself binge eating, weighing nearly 400 lbs, and struggling with an addiction to carbohydrates. He experienced daily pain, skin issues, mental fog, depression, anxiety, severe digestive issues, and much more.

After discovering the keto and carnivore diets and the related health information through Dr. Ken Berry and others on YouTube, Chris and his wife, Ash Taylor, began a journey with low carb foods in an attempt to regain their health and happiness. Chris began his own YouTube channel, Chris Cooking Nashville, to document his health journey weekly in a vlog format and to share the recipes he was creating to combine his foodie heritage and his new found health on a low carb lifestyle. To date Chris has lost almost 130 lbs, fixed his health issues, and built a community of like-minded low carb cooks online through his videos and other resources. Currently he is working to create weekly recipes to help people on a keto or carnivore diet seeking to truly enjoy their dietary choices while addressing physical and mental health concerns with a low carb lifestyle. He is also an author of a free ebook available for download on his website, “Keto And Carnivore For Real People”, where he outlines the basic overview anyone would need to feel confident in trying a keto or carnivore diet and beginning to learn how to cook keto and carnivore foods.

Chris continues sharing his journey toward his ideal body weight and health, hoping to serve his goal of “changing the world one plate at a time”. Tune in weekly to his YouTube channel, Chris Cooking Nashville, to see what Chris is cooking next, and join him in his private community, “The Band", for more support, a strong community, behind the scenes content, and much more exclusive information. As Chris always says… Eat your meat, love your life!
