I’m coming off 10 months of carnivore. I’ll spare a bunch of details, but I pretty much tanked my hormones, sleep was poor and energy was low. My gym strength and muscle size took a noticeable hit. I’m on my third week of introducing carbs. My carb sources are raw oats, sweet potato, white rice, cruciferous veggies, Ezekiel bread, raw beets, and 10-20g of raw local honey. I’m keeping my calories and macros the same as carnivore; I’m basically trading carbs for fat. I’m at a calorie deficit of 2000, 200g protein, 120-150g carbs, 65g fat. That’s all broken up evenly into 6 meals. Ruminant animal meat is still a priority for me, along with a little poultry, pork and fish. I’m also eating beef kidney, heart and liver daily. I experienced very slight bloating a few days of the first week…. That’s only the real negative experience. My weight is the same, but I’m losing body fat and gaining muscle just 3 weeks in….. I know we all have different experiences. Just wanted to share mine. Good luck.

It could take anywhere from a few weeks to maybe a few months based on digestion and carb metabolism. Taking a slow methodical approach to ramping up carbs is likely best, since your body becomes adapted to burning fat.

@@ricardodiaz6187 nice, let me know if you have specific questions. Cheers!

@@TheLukeLamy thanks! 💪🏽

Appreciate that

Yeah good point. I think red light could help to combat the lack of sunlight if you’re in a cold climate so you can eat some carbs. But ideally you are not eating as many in the winter as the summer. And you’ll always eat more in Costa Rica then you would in Boston. This is why I will always live somewhere warm. Better for our biology

This is why in past they canned foods. And there are tons of starches for the winters. Humans always ate carbs despite what the meat gurus twll ypu.

It's not hatred. How did you get that vibe? They just don't agree fasting is all that good for you. And to be fair, their position isn't unfounded and there's an entire community that has in-depth explanations as to why fasting isn't a good thing to do and even why it makes people feel better. Fasting can have a place but it shouldn't be used all the time.

When glycogen is depleted and dietary glucose isn't available it triggers a hormonal cascade that's also used in stress situation: glucagon-adrenaline-cortisol. Gluconeogenesis is a suboptimal way to make energy. From this perspective, not fasting is helpful to minimize stress.

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks for the listen!

Thanks :)

I believe oregano oil and pau d'arco are the two mentioned. Glutamine 5g x 3 times per day seems to be potent for stopping leaky gut. While constipation seems to be a low thyroid issue. Hope this helps!

Certain plant compounds from fruit fibers and well cooked veg are anti microbial too. Jay Feldman goes over this in some of his podcasts

@@aspiresk8boarding raw carrot and white button mushrooms 🫡

@@TheLukeLamy Mike Fave says his clients with a history of keto and carnivore have benefited from adding cooked peas to diversify the microbiome and be able to digest more things. Well cooked fruit veggies like squash, tomatoes and pepper are nice too.

@@aspiresk8boarding good call out!

Thank you!

Thank you! 🤝

I would argue they are eating fat too. If you look at most processed foods they have seed oils in them. Cookies, chips, crackers, bread, and processed sugars are all foods Jay does not recommend eating. These all slow down the metabolic rate and have no nutrients. As far as suggestions for people who are obese: avoid PUFA, avoid anything that can impair metabolism (beans, legumes, raw vegetables, etc) and eat adequate macros. Jay seems to recommend lower fat (less than 100) and moderate protein (.65per LB body weight), and the rest carbs 250+. I think most people would agree that a diet consisting of mostly grass-fed meat and fruit does not make anyone fat.

@@TheLukeLamy I wouldn't be so sure... I dropped~ 60lbs in less than 4 months when I stopped drinking my daily 2l Pepsi Cola bottle. And I am pretty sure there isn't any kind of seed oils in it... Please don't misunderstand me, I am not saying seed oils are healthy, just please don't make refined sugars healthy...

@@virgilashRefined sugar is pretty benign within calorie requirements. It just lacks micronutrients and any beneficial plant compounds that whole foods would have. Jay doesn’t recommend a diet comprised of high amounts of refined sugar compared to other carbs

Appreciate it man. Enjoy the holidays thank you!

Very kind of you! Learned a lot from having Nate on!

He convinced me to go to Costa Rica, did not regret it one bit!

​@TheLukeLamy you live there now?

I believe he means that the cells in our mitochondria operate on a circadian clock, so when we view light at the wrong hours/do not view sunlight at all our mitochondria gets damaged.

@@TheLukeLamy Thank you so much 😊

Glad you enjoyed it

I've been watching Jay for awhile and agree. I have never seen Luke's podcast, but appreciate his calm demeanor, as well. High marks for Luke's great interview style and asking Jay a lot of great questions. Really enjoyed your chat. Thanks guys!

Same, he got me into the bioenergetic view of health. He is very rationale and always compassionate with his answers!

Means a lot. Thank you for the kind words!

@luke, I'm in Jay's group. He has incredible patience for people who jabber on (myself included). I think he is wise beyond his years and has the ability to hold space for people who are just trying to get well.

Agree! He is a hidden gem, most people look for the people who are posting the most on social media... But you can tell Jay could care less about fame and just wants to help people get better and learn!@@terrinoggle3893

Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you!

Nearly all the people who recommend thyroid who I respect (peat, danny roddy, jay feldman, etc) recommend against T4 only therapy. So if you could get your hands on some T3 you could add that in with your T4 from the doc. There are also sources such as: thyroidsupplements.com for dessicated thyroid and www.meds.com.mx/ for T3- cynomel/cytomel and T4- cynoplus I would recommend watching this: m.czcams.com/video/3Jw7MtOk3vc/video.html Or reading this: dannyroddy.substack.com/p/demystifying-thyroid-supplementation

@@TheLukeLamy thank you!

Change your GP if your current one is 💩

LOL, and all of them are totally misinformed!

Jays got all his sources in his podcast show notes. Haters will say it’s photoshopped

Agree with everything you said!

Check out his hormesis info if you haven't. Brilliant.

Of course. The Huberman episode is another good one to hear him speak. Roughly 5 hours of his philosophy!

Luke you can use Ai to remove that buzzing/ringing

Grow a pair and get the word out anyway. Little kids aren't gonna sit through it anyway.

@sophukinsikofit I'm a woman, so that's not going to happen. Secondly, my teenage children would listen to it, but then again, it's really none of your own business😉

I could work on that. Thanks for the valued input!

@TheLukeLamy Thank you🙏 if you let me know when you do, I will send it out to everyone I know. I really appreciate your response.

@@TP-iv3os Go to Dr Max Gulhane w/Dr Sarah Pugh, it's Jack Kruse 101 that's more appropriate for your needs. Also Dr Seheult, MD, on Med-Cram titled Light As Medicine. :)

He has an excellent voice.

He is great!

Purchasing a heat lamp or some red light bulbs could help.

Thank you, he changed my perspective on what is healthy eating!
