What if you only ate meat for 30 days. Would you gain muscle and burn a lot of fat by avoiding carbohydrates and processed foods or would you suffer from nutrition deficiencies? Restricting yourself to only eating meat does sound extreme, yet it's exactly what a diet plan that continues to grow in popularity known as the carnivore diet recommends you do for better health, better body composition, and more energy. While the idea may seem radical, it's gained quite a large following over the last few years, including from some well-known individuals like Jordan Peterson who claims that it can provide various health benefits. But what does the science actually say about what happens to your body if you only eat meat?
Well, first there are some immediate physiological changes that you'll experience. This is because when you switch to a meat-only diet, your body will undergo a significant metabolic shift. Carbohydrates found in foods like fruits, vegetables, and grains are the body's default source of energy that gets broken down and stored in the form of glucose and glycogen. When you eliminate carbs and in turn glucose from your diet, your body has to look for alternative fuel sources. That's where ketosis comes into play. Ketosis is a metabolic state in which your body burns fat and ketones for energy instead of carbohydrates. Ketones and ketoacids are alternative fuel sources for your body that are made when glucose is in short supply. They're produced in the liver from the breakdown of fats when there’s not enough sugar or glucose to supply the body's fuel needs. Within a few days of starting a meat-only diet, you'll likely enter ketosis, but this can take up two weeks.
Ketosis is linked to benefits like making it easier to lose weight. For example, research shows that you’ll feel less hungry and more full when in ketosis. The high protein and high-fat content of meat is also associated with appetite suppression and feeling more satiated, which is why a carnivore diet often leads to weight loss automatically without having to count calories (1). Also since the carnivore diet is so highly restrictive it automatically eliminates many high-calorie foods like grains, sugars, and processed snacks. This reduction in caloric intake is very likely to lead to fat loss on its own. Another reason why you're likely to lose a substantial amount of body fat over the course of 30 days is that protein has a higher thermic effect of food (TEF) compared to carbohydrates and fats, meaning it requires more energy to digest. This can potentially increase metabolism, helping with weight and fat loss.
You might also have an easier time building muscle, especially if you’re currently eating very little meat or no meat at all. That’s because research links eating meat to building more muscle. For example, we have a study that found that in older men, combining resistance training with a diet that included meat led to greater increases in muscle growth compared to lifting weights without eating meat. (2) Of course this was based on older men and more importantly many people don't get enough protein per day as it is, so just by raising the amount of protein you take in per day will help you build more muscle if you're currently not taking in enough. Meat itself is likely not any more special of a protein source for gaining muscle than things like chicken, fish, or eggs, but it is likely better at building muscle than vegan protein sources like tofu, beans, and seitan. For example in another study, scientists concluded that "a vegetarian diet is associated with a lower muscle mass index than an omnivorous diet even at the same protein intake level." (3)
Another benefit that you can experience as the days go by is relief from food sensitivities or allergies if you happen to be allergic or sensitive to certain foods. It's believed that plants have developed defense mechanisms over thousands of years to prevent them from being eaten so they can grow undisturbed. For example, lectins are proteins found in various plant foods like beans, legumes, and certain grains, and some people believe they can cause digestive discomfort and inflammation. By excluding all plant-based foods containing lectins, the carnivore diet potentially provides relief to individuals who have these sensitivities. Also, eating a meat-based diet eliminates potential allergens like gluten, commonly found in wheat, barley, and rye, which can also cause digestive upset and other negative symptoms like fatigue and headaches. Moving beyond gluten and lectins, some people have allergies or sensitivities to specific plant compounds or proteins. For example, people with....

According to studies, cholesterol and saturated fats have limited to do with heart disease. It is systemic inflammation and insulin resistance that cause heart disease
This is from a paper published by Dr Aseem Malhotra MD Cardiologist, in the British journal of Sports Medicine titled *Saturated fat does not clog the arteries: coronary heart disease is a chronic inflammatory condition, the risk of which can be effectively reduced from healthy lifestyle interventions*
Linking high cholesterol to heart disease is based on the hypothesis of Dr Ancel Keys. This is poor correlation. More than two-thirds of people who had heart attacks, had normal cholesterol levels.
If you have insulin resistance, Sugars will get converted into triglycerides. If your HbA1c (which is a reliable marker for insulin resistance) is normal and HDL and triglycerides are normal, then high LDL is good cholesterol that is not a concern
This new marker for bad cholesterol will collapse the statin industry. Most of the diabetics have high cholesterol. If they fix their insulin resistance, then statins become obsolete
People with low cholesterol have the risk of developing dementia. It is why one of the side effects of statins is mild cognitive impairment and dementia
Cholesterol is needed for a healthy brain. Brain is made up of myelin, which needs cholesterol

Till the 1920's, the keto diet had been used as the treatment for epilepsy before anti-seizure drugs were invented. Now, the keto diet is only used as the standard treatment for treatment resistant epilepsy
@@abukittyI've been carnivore for over a year - I started over 30% body fat and initially had no interest in doing excercise. Once I got down to around 20% body fat I felt energised and I now run or workout every day. I got down to 72kg, 19% body fat and now I'm gaining weight, 74kg today yet my waist measurement is lower than it was at 72kg. So basically yes, I am gaining weight but losing fat, so it must be muscle (I can lift more weight or do a lot more reps so this tracks).
How long did you practice carnivore without exercising? @georgemoonman2830
@@sylvahmoon5550 so, I was keto for about a year before switching to carnivore, once I switched to full carnivore my energy levels shot up and I really wanted to start exercising within a few weeks.
My cholesterol is now "high", but my blood pressure has dropped to normal range so I see both those things as positive.
Eating meat on the carnivore diet is like drinking water when you're thirsty. When you're hungry, it's delicious. Once your full, you're full for good. There is no danger of overeating.
Best and most underrated metaphor ever.
Exactly!
3 years carnivore. The best ever... health perfect.. 176cm , 82 kg, 8% Body fat.. 46 years old. Never been so fit and i tried everything
Iam ur height too i want to be 90kg 10-12% bodyfat and what about ur bowel movments on carnivore dont u have constapation? I had problems with constapation when i quit carbs,sugar
@@blicmen3804 bowel no problem most of times..eat a lot of fats, good Butter, fatty meats
@@blicmen3804... I use metamucil. It isnt carnivore but it keeps me regular with perfect bowel movements. And they have sugar free.
Do you practice fasting as well? How many meals a day are you having?
@@Eliokd i did fasting lots of 16/8 but now over 3 years carnivore almost never because of good clean eating. 3 meals a Day and sometimes 2 meals a Day depends how busy and training
I'm 3.5 months on Carnivore and I'm getting shredded and building muscle. My diet before consisted of meat and tons of fruits/veg - little carbs. I now lift more and run further. No more gas - like none. No bloating. No sudden urges to go. No stomach bubbles. Very small 1per day bowel moments with a fraction of the smell. Basically the best digestion experience ever. My skin cleared up and I hit my target of losing 18lbs within the first 50 days. I feel mentally pumped. The real reason I tried this tho, was for the claims ppl made that Carnivore eliminates joint pain / inflammation - they were right! My joints have NEVER been this good!! I dropped physiotherapy 2weeks in. That's why my 30 day challenge has turned into 3+ months.
Can’t eat tons of fruits/veggies and then say you ate little carbs.
Breads, pasta, cereal are the main carbs@@hfbtrbdfnjbtrjtryg
Who cares?
Can you be on this diet with just chicken breasts?
@@Vickyyyy1995 You need to add a lot of fat as CB is very lean. Legs and thighs would be your best bet, but fatty red meat is what you need to get the benefits.
I have been carnivore for 2 1/2 years. Now 5'10" 175lbs. When I started 210 sluggish and weak. Now I am strong with defined muscles. I'll never leave the carnivore life style.
Hows your LDLs & triglycerides?
@@herbertcrawford9634look at the new research on those two things.
watch the vegans and the health service jump on your case
Also curious to know how your kidneys and liver are doing
When I was whole food vegan my lupus was bad and my liver was in a bad state. Now that I’m over four years carnivore and in wonderful health! I work fifty hour weeks on my feet all day with tons of energy. People don’t believe I have lupus. I don’t supplement. That’s ridiculous. I don’t care what people say. I know how I feel.
A side note I get mistaken for my son’s sister and my ex’s daughter.
ive been on carnivore diet for 3 years now. last year I finally got off medication for my crohns disease. meat heals!!
Awesome!👍🥩
As an Asian, not eating rice for a day, let along 30 feels like a crime
But sacrifices must be made
I did keto for years and now i am carnivore. Best descision of my life
Only meat is technically what's known as the Lion diet. Carnivore diet allows for things like eggs, cheeses, kefir/yoghurt, heavy cream, tallow, fish - those things cover whatever 'deficiencies' like vitamin E.
Been carnivore for 5 months, never felt better, best shape of my life and experienced no negatives whatsoever. I don't take any vitamins
I'm on carnivore pretty much for over a year (with occasional slip ups here and there with alcohol). Did I loose a lot of weight - yes (but). Do I feel stronger? Yes (but). Do I feel healthier? Yes (but). The 'but' is - I had 150 gym days in the last 365days, with 17 Munros climbed, 500km+ of runs, all together over 20km of elevation. So is that the diet or the effort? I dropped from 30%+ of fat content to 16%, lost over 83lbs in weight at the same time. My blood pressure spikes subsided significantly, but still occur. So it's not a magic bullet - don't go int keto thinking about it (as most Americans do) through the lens of 'that one thing I need to do to rectify decades of neglect and eating garbage'. What I can say for sure is - MY body can't tolerate carbs/sugar as it used to - if I slip and have a piece of pizza, next day I wake up demolished, pretty much hangovered, takes a few days to go back to normal. For my body, carbs are toxins. When I limit my diet to meat and eggs, I don't have such symptoms. When I fast, I sleep less, feel rested in the morning. So... Make your own choice, based on your own individual body reaction, NOT BASED ON IDEOLOGY (yes, f-u vegans for terrorising everyone else to go plant, I AM NOT A COW!).
lol have fun dying young
I’m not a cow 👏🏽🔥🔥🔥😂
Are you sure you're not a cow commenting on CZcams ?
My mother once told me she didn’t understand why she couldn’t graze like cows. I tried to explain. She wasn’t kidding. I fed her really well when she nearly died. Her mind cleared, she showed up, she felt good. Soon after she was no longer living with me she returned to her old ways of mostly not eating. When we basically starve ourselves, no matter what we eat or don’t eat, it’s called an eating disorder. Yes, everyone needs some balance and to figure out their personal needs. By going carnivore for a short period and then introducing foods with nutrients not covered by the carnivore diet, we can figure out exactly what we need to eat. Instead of asking “what do I feel like eating? Ask “what does my body need right now?” If you’re eating ANYTHING that is not allowing you to communicate in this way with your body, such as plant based foods and processed foods, you will not hear it talking to you. And yes, grazing for a human is never an option. Sorry mom.
How did you supplement for the lack of vitamans explained in the video? Is taking a multi vitamin while on this diet good for that? Also, will eating chicken and fish on this diet have a negative affect? Thanks!
Avoid the "Keto Flu" by replenishing the electrolytes you will lose when flushing water weight. High quality salts will also help with that.

@@Kilroy_86 You can take a multi vitamin if you choose. I take one every other day. Also if you're eating HIGH QUALITY WHOLE foods you will still get the nutrients your body needs. Also Chicken and Fish are GREAT for any lifestyle. Salmon will give you healthy fats your body needs while in Ketosis. Good luck!
Is adding salt to food enough?
I have lost 20 pounds in the first month of carnivore alone. I have cured my IBS, insomnia and I feel great.
Which meats and how much a day?
Good to see unbiased videos that help consumers make an informed decision.
Great explanation - of Ketosis and the pluses and minuses of this diet
5 months on Carnivore, down 40 lbs. Vitals are near perfect, lipid panel near perfect except for one liver fat for being overweight for years. Simple. Also, I include simple dairy products in my diet.
It works!
What type of simple dairy u use on this diet?
@@RealFlorida305 acidophilus thick milk or fresh cheeses are the best
I tried two months but I gaint weight ,I am so worry is the truly lose weight???
@@denhliu5043try the meats with lesser fats and low on bad cholesterols 😊

Useful concise info - thanks 🤙
Glad you are waking up brother keep it up 👍🏻

This must be every vegans favorite video🙅♂️
You think you funny 😂
No vegans allowed.. get out
Like me😅
Great video! Way to do the research. I honestly thought you were going to trash the diet.
I lost 45 lb. on the carnivore diet... I love it.
Great in how many months
I'm down 11 pounds in 8 days so far . Lol it's amazing
Down 38 pounds myself in a little over 2 1/2 months! After getting fat adapted I went on a 5 day water fast to fix my insides then straight onto 20-24 hour intermittent fasts! After you have reset your body to run on ketones and Belly fat it's advantageous to keep it running on low carb high fat, moderate protein diet!
My diet consists of ground beef (for the higher collagen content), chicken, kefir, honey, greek yogurt, cheese, cured meats, eggs, milk (grass-milk is preferred), whey protein powder, a collagen protein supplement, digestive enzymes, and a multivitamin.
Basically, if it comes from an animal source, I will eat it; The less processed, the better.
So no fruit whatsoever ever?
@@winstonreid9077that is the only huge part hard for me. I use to eat 10 navel oranges a day lol I love fruit of all kinds. I crave them everyday now on day eight 0 carbs
The best change I have made in my diet! Never felt better. Carnivore try it! You will not regret it.
This should be combined with intermittent fasting and training for maximized results
Thanks !!
I have been carnivore for 1 1/2 years. I never felt better. All the negatives you mentioned actually got better for me. I dont know about the long-term issues. But i prefer to stay on this diet. ✌🏽

@@Kilroy_86 red meat is preferred and has the nutrients we need. Unlike plants its bio available. I use electrolytes. Try for two or three months. Good luck 👍🏽
@@Kilroy_86 you can eat chicken and fish too. But prefer red meat like beef. Chicken has less fat. You are supposed to have more fat in this diet.
The problem i had on this diet was pooping, literally felt like i needed to but couldn't. Nothing of the advices helped.. Magensium or more fat.
So long ago I remember reading an account of the Lewis & Clark expedition led with Sacagawea. One of the guys couldn't make it without bread, and she shared hers with him, as she was more accustomed to a more completely meat diet.
Even though I'm old, I'm also the only one in my family who literally never gets sick. I do a variation of this alternating between (Carnivore Diet Day + Light Cardio workout) and (Healthy Carbs Day with Proteins + Weight Workout ending with Sprints). Feel better than ever. Most important for me is adequate sleep and learning to rest when needed to avoid injuries and prevent getting sick. Great video! Thanks
Sam here mate. I just don't get sick! I mean, the logic is there. You don't construct a building out of flowers and rainbows, why would the resources that your body needs to be any different. You are made out of protein and water, therefore your body needs protein and water to exist. And I am not talking about plant based protein. We all know what fake food tastes like. Anything fake is never as good as the real thing!
I know people who don't ever get sick and they follow no diet at all. A woman at my work has been there 7 years and has never taken a sick day. Pretty sure she's not on carnivore. My point is, I don't think this diet is a remedy for getting sick. But what do I know?
@@davidmills7046 everyone's body is different. Some people respond better to veges. Others meat
@@davidmills7046 Diet alone is not enough.... it's a culmination of everything that helps you mentally&physically. Toxic people, minimal sleep, drinking too much, sedentary lifeSyle... Just stay away from those and from most crappy foods out there and you'll be better off than most people around you. After that just add other things as time goes on to keep improving. Don't try to do all at once, most people quit that way. Good luck.
@@user-lu7np4cg1t I agree. I was simply stating that just because you are on a meat only diet does not mean you are immune to sickness. Not sure exactly where there is confusion in what I was saying.
Great video. I've noticed when I have steak for dinner 3 or 4 times back-to-back it's usually good for 2 to 3 pounds of weight loss.
Can you break this down for me? Also when you say 3-4 times do you mean in a day or just one steak per day?
@@-mugen- Just one per day.
@@steveogle8942 Makes sense, so you dont eat anything other than a steak a day? Say it was a .50lb steak, is eating another one cool or you personally 1 all around?
Do more investigation on high cholesterol. When you have a high carb diet, you will have small dense particle cholesterol which is dangerous for heart disease and clots. If you eat meat, the cholesterol you get with it is large fluffy cholesterol which is not dangerous. There is a blood test you can take to know your numbers. If you have low triglycerides and you have good levels of HDL cholesterol, most likely you will have the large fluffy cholesterol but it takes time for triglycerides to lower if you have been on a high carb diet. Fish oil can lower triglycerides and raise HDL if you're in a rush or eat salmon, sardines and other fish high in omega 3's will also do the same.
I can confirm. Developed carotis plagues at age 29 with ultra low cholesterol, hdl and ldl way under 100. But high oxLDL, homocytein and hsCRP. Reversed it in two years. Did a lot of things but I think vitamin supplementation was key. Excersice and only from time to time keto and fasting.
Excellent video. Thank you for the summary. Well done. 😊
I'm an omnivore, I enjoy my veggie side dishes with my protein source too much. But, it's always good to be informed. 😊
im down 60lbs in about 6 months. Its rough in the beginning, the runs, carb withdrawal, having to say no to everything. But if you stay with it you will have tons of benefits. I highly suggest it. Dr ken berry, shawn baker and homestead how are my favorite carnivore channels. Some things I noticed. Beware of pork, eggs and dairy some people are allergic but don't realize how bad it makes them feel until its cut out. You will sleep less, its ok just do more things. Dont sit on youtube all day lol. You may poo less and or its smaller in volume. thats ok but you shouldn't need to strain or bear down. Some gentle effort or no effort is normal but if you are sweating or taking a long time to get things done its probably cheese or dehydration. Add more water with electrolytes. Don't be afraid of salt, its your friend. getting the runs even after a few weeks? cut back on fats or remove dairy and switch to tallow. Eat until you are stuffed. I am up to eating a 1lb NY strip and feeling just over full.
Carnivore for 10 months and I can recommend 100% I am saving $ from not buying plants and junk food. I feel great both mind and body. Go for it, it is easy and satisfying.
Do you stick with red meat ?
What's your main meat choice ?
@@BK-pc6ov red meat is the best, don't fall for the kind of propaganda that wouldn't advise going carnivore in the first place
I personally have lost over 40 lbs in 120 days with carnivore and my goal is another 30 lbs in 5 months and I will be at my ideal weight with very low body fat.
Looks like meats back on the menu boys!! 🧟♂
Unoriginal comment.
Boooooo.👎🏾
Yes come on!!:)
Could you also eat complex carbs with the meat only diet, since you need some energy as you mentioned in the video? Also mentioned in the video, since you won’t have enough of the vitamins in the meat only diet, such as E and C, could you take supplement pills that contain those vitamins?
It you eat complex carbs, you are not on a meat only diet. However, all nutrition research indicates that long term, it’s healthier to eat a variety of foods and not restrict yourself so much like the carnivore diet does. Sure, it will probably help you lose weight for a month or two, but any longer than that, you might run into other health problems.

@@ponokunishima1 I'm glad you read your comments. However, you said meat only, and then ask if something else other than meat (complex carbs) are part of meat only.
So somehow, I'm doubting you are reading your comments. If you were, you'd've picked up on the fact that complex carbs can't be added to a meat only diet and it still be meat only.
Add what you want to your meat. Know then that it isn't meat only. Don't be silly by saying contradictory stuff. If you are so silly, don't be shocked when people point it out.
This comment section taught me more than the last 10 articles I've read 😂😂
Wo this is a very amazing and superb video bro telling about what if we eat meat for 30 days and keep it up and keep up the good work as always and take care
Keep smiling always
The keto flu happens usually because of an electrolyte imbalance due to the diet shift. That same imbalance can also cause the diarrhea or constipation. So if you’re transitioning add electrolytes. It normal on the carnivore diet to only need to go 1 maybe 2 times a week but that doesn’t mean it’s constipation. Also if you don’t have keto flu but still get diarrhea then your stomach acid might be low or you don’t have enough bile to properly digest the extra fat you’re now eating so take either Apple cider vinegar or Betaine hydrochloride. If you like bile take Ox bile supplements or Tudca. Also dairy is a staple in most carnivorous diets. Also recently it’s been found that saturated fats aren’t bad for you and that a high LDL is linked to longer mortality. I wish I remembered the articles to site them but I’m at work lol. Also a recent study from the university of Chicago shows that beef consumption can help combat Cancer and tumors. The article was released November of 2023
Was waiting to see if you'll touch on leptin resistance.
Thanks!, this was a very informative video as usual. I'll keep eating carbs, fats, and meat, though. I've been progressing and lost 6 pounds of pure fat in less than 3 months.
That’s not very impressive
If you went on the carnivore diet you’d burn ten pounds a month, minimum.
As someone who was obese i went from 240 to 190 in 2 months by eating meat, fish, eggs, lots of low carb veggies
😂😂😂
Going on week 2. Definitely had the Keto-Flu. Powered through. Ive dropped 12-14lbs. Hard to say how much of that was water weight. I'll check back in. Getting easier now.
Anyone with high cholesterol do this and what were your results and how did it effect your cholesterol
i was on a carnivore diet at the start of the first lockdown.
Best shape i was ever in, and at my strongest point ever, felt easier to get into routines of all kinds. From exercise, work and relaxing.
But after 6 months of pure carnivore, i just got tired of eating the "same" thing every day. so went for more keto, which felt nicer and easier to stay to.
I didn't have a single of these health issues whatsoever. Not even the adapting phase.
after ups and downs in life, i've been back to high carb diets and lazy fastfood meals.
Slowly trying to get back to carnivore again, and already generally feel better.
I will say, it's not for everybody.
If you think about getting into it, but have long history of high carb and fastfood meals as part of your daily diet... you're gonna have a bad time.
Pick one or 2 day out of the week, and start from there. And drink water everyday instead of... whatever.
Quit going so extreme, thats why you're having so many issues. Eat a balanced diet and quit going for fads.
@@FerintoshFarmsPhotography many issues? i didn't have a single issue with the diet itself mate. Life happens, so stuff like diets is not always a priority.

I have been eating steak and eggs every day for over a year now and it never gets old. I have never felt better.

I have found with over 10 years of sheer experimentation and blood work done, that the optimal diet for humans is mainly animal products, a bit of fats (animal if possible) with, taken with said products (instead of eating it separately so you avoid overconsumption), trying to avoid foods that increase weight like milk, bread and potatoes (you can have some, just not very frequently, and if you drink milk try to go for the unpasteurized natural one) in that order of priority from more weight generated to less (obesity is the biggest risk factor that can lead to high blood pressure and diabetes as well as heart disease, so it's very important to control our weight). Also have a bit of carbohydrates to have a well balanced testosterone hormonal level (which also leads to good mood and healthy mental state throughout the day), and above all this, eat the foods you like, even if they are slightly unhealthy, like chocolate, sweet buns and the so, because scientific studies have shown that depression is as bad if not worse than smoking cigarettes daily.
So, in summary, eat mainly an animals product diet with a bit of fats/carbohydrates and be flexible with yourself, so you are happy and your health improves, this is what I believe is the optimal diet for humans with over a 1/10 of a century experience and have gone through vegan hell and everything in between.
I have some questions for the carnivore diet goers. How do I start? How do I get the best results without feeling bad throughout the day and sluggish or angry? I'm 6'3 250lbs so how much meat do I eat and what else do I take and eat?
Day 3 in just eat steak or hamburger and a glass of milk.
This vid was perfectly timed. I've been contemplating this for a while. I'm a man about to turn 50, and I've been eating right and lifting weights for years. People tell me I look much younger, one even saying I looked "phenomenal". But I'm wanting to take it to the next level, and this is how I've been thinking I can get there.
I lost 120lbs in 8 months intermittent fasting and maintaining ketosis.

@@samibellah5831 One a day. Low carb (veggies) high fat/protein. No sugary foods. I would sometimes skip the one meal, eat in the morning of the next day giving me more than 24 hour fast. Felt like I was tricking my body whenever I changed things up.
I did carnivore diet and had some great results. However its just too expensive, hard diet for middle class income.
Save your junk food money to buy Meat!
It's not just meat but eggs are cheap and in the same ballpark.
you can get mine for free
Its really not that hard brother, you can buy CHEAP meat! Typically its the really tough or leaner pieces that have no fat, ADD BUTTER. Butter is cheap, even good butter. Butter is your fat substitute.
Pork is $1.90/#, and is dead easy to make a simple marinade to refrigerate over night. I usually cook 3-4# at a time, and have my favorite beef like once a week or less.
Eggs are back to normal pricing now, so have 3-4 every morning for $2/doz.
Thanks for your help. You have done your homework. You are a blessing to many. Keep up the good work. God bless. Rocky Martin Goshen Indiana USA. JESUS IS THE ANSWER.
I’ve been using inhalers for 40 plus years for Asthma, I’ve given up alcohol and on a carnivore diet, I’ve stopped using the inhalers, I think the alcohol was causing irration to my lungs.
When I drink, it sometimes triggers my asthma, also when I sleep my wife would video me, and it was bad loud snoring trying to breathe with bad wheezing. I’ve had asthma since I was 1
Do 45 days carnivore and then gradually add in fruits, veggies and some dairy. You’ll be happier than a clam. Limit carbs if possible and try and keep processed sugar to a minimum.
I’m on it. I’ve had 30 carbs in 20 days. Two Guinness beers = 20 carbs and 10mg of gummy melatonins. I stopped with the melatonin because I’m sleeping HARD. Poops are also crazy because they’re nonexistent, which is wild. Opinion: stay away from alcohol to keep your liver healthy to process the LDL spike.
I just started 3 days of chicken grilled and I use zesty ranch sauce great value and spinach and going to add a apple hear and there or banana Once in awhile just water.. for a month is my gole.

How did this go in the end?
That was a well laid out explanation. I will stick with my whole fruits and veggies with my meals. I just enjoy learning about different nutrition plans.
U don't eat vegetables
I have been hunting for a proper way of eating since college in 2011 opening my eyes to how infuriating nutrition is. Carnivore is the only diet I have found that I feel healthy and satisfied on.
😆 I saw what you did there. That's funny.
I tried it and my mind was sharp I lost weight but constipation and anxiety was horribly how do I fix it?
LDL binds with triglycerides for bat burning. You need good levels of LDL and HDL with low triglycerides. Lowing LDL is stupid.
We can intake fiber separately
I eat meat every meal but I just don't think I can go without other foods like olives, pickles, banana peppers,ice cream,pizza and the occasional fruit...but veggies processed food and grains except the occasional taco or pizza I can goo with out....I guess I'm like 80 %pure carnivore, I do agree is the way to go for health and low body fat..it's just it seems so hard to eat just pure meat and water 24-7..the stable of my diet is steak,eggs and Greek yogurt though
Until you experience carnivore personally you don't realize how awesome it is! You won't believe how your body heals and how healthy you feel!
So can I pan fry my steaks with a bit of butter, mushroom and onion or does this prevent ketosis?
Keep your Net Carbs below 20-30 grams per day works for most people.
in adaptation faze keep your carbs low but after that if you workout you can even eat like 50-100 grams of carbs and still be in ketosis afterwards
@@boots7859thanks.
@@_interstellar_wanderer_thanks.
So, pretty much have 4 to 6 weeks carnivore every couple of months a?
I started carnivore 4 years ago. I have refined my diet and now have much better physical and mental health. I document lota of it on my CZcams channel.
You don't need vitamin c if you aren't consuming carbs.
1 1/2 💯 carnivore and never felt better and my health has never been better 🥩💪🏻
I point to Doyle of THE MISFITS being vegan and muscular. Amazing genetics.
Well, the first thing I’d notice is the difference in my bank account but I’m definitely thinking about doing this.
Eggs.
Unless you're some kind of exception most people way overpay for what they get. Soft drinks, sweets, junk food, fruits & vegies are not cheaper than just buying meat and eggs and most people aren't talking money when it comes to these.
People say it is expensive, but in reality if you give up sugar, alcohol, smoking etc you will have more than enough. Cost me Maybe 200 pound a month, easily doable if you want to do it I am not rich I just work it in to my budget and stopped spending my money on rubbish
Fish, veggies and meat is KING....
I did not lose all the weight that people are talking about but I feel better, for sure. I avoid salt and magnesium because that hurts my legs. I only eat 80/20 grass-fed meat. I take 1 or 2 tablespoons of first cold pressed olive oil and one avocado per day. I use MCT oil to cook. Moving along pretty well... I'm a 71 year old woman.
What about the increased risk of atherosclerosis?
The scurvy thing is absolutely a non-issue. Nobody ... NOBODY ... ever got scruvy on carnivore.
Balanced video
Should we add rice or veggies to it?
No
Jordan Peterson doesn’t say it can have benefits, he says it had for him. He has explicitly stated he doesn’t recommend it
What if i go through these diet and take multi vitamins any suggestions
Very good, however really missed one of the main points relating to keto flu.
Getting into ketosis is usually signalled by an large increase in urine output.
Above and beyond your normal daily output assuming similar water/fluid intake.
Humans are ill adapted to retaining sodium, any time water is released sodium is invariably released as well.
Since you're not on a Western/highly processed diet anymore where salt is added to everything, you need to insure you are getting at least 1 tsp of salt per day. Lot of people focus on electrolytes like Magnesium, Potassium, however the truth is the keto flu is primarily a signal that your body has lost more salt than it should, and you aren't ingesting enough to prevent rather nasty osmotic effects in the brain and the body.
How about magnesium and potassium salts?
Bro if you eating meat im pretty sure it has more than 1tsp of salt. Aint no one eating unseasoned meat🤌
@@OGkush69xit takes extra salt. Be sure to use Redmond’s Real salt. Remember you’re not getting the fluids from plant foods so drinking more water is the solution. And when you drink more water, you need more salt because it flushes it out.
We have been lied to all our lives about what a "healthy diet" is! Simple stop eating Carbs, all Sugars, all Plants, and Processed Foods! I just whish I had billions of dollars so I could afford to sue everyone for all the lies throughout my life. I am 72 and have been lied to all my life, the people that spread the BS should all be in jail or worse for all the lies about health and nutrition!
But the Grain Lobby has big $$ invested in advertising. Eat your froot loops!!
Carnivore diet not only includes meat, but also meat products like cheese, butter, yogurt, eggs, pork rinds, etc.
Does it include tempeh?
@@danielgabriealjayarajan6844 No as that's made with soybeans. Wouldn't be low carb, keto, or Atkins neither as each serving has 16 grams of carbs.
@rmobnation9395 how about Tofu??
This must be every vegans favorite video🙅♂️
Those aren't meat product but dairy protduct
Why don’t you try Carnivore for 30 days and then have an opinion?
I tried Carnivore for one meal and I didn't lose any weight
Vitamin c actually isn’t as essential when you’re not consuming carbs, smaller amounts are fine and you can easily add some lemon juice to your meat with little issue
I’m a vegan, but I was curious about this because obviously if humans can live without meat at all, I thought what if the opposite was true too
Interesting and informative video
What if we eat meats and eggs only? Still largely protein and minimal carbs
The specifics of a carnivore diet vary significantly. Many people include Eggs and butter for example. Me - I eat eggs, butter, bacon, grass fed beef, beef tallow, the occasional cup of home made beef bone broth, and also have some wild caught salmon once a week. I also have chicken occasionally or even less often some pork product I see on sale like back ribs or peameal bacon. Some people with extreme food sensitivity do the lion diet version, just beef and salt, but that's not for everyone.
3 years on Carnivore 🥩 feel amazing 💪
I’m kinda torn between ketovore and carnivore but kind of leaning towards carnivore now
Eggs have all vitamins except C. A lot of people eat cheese in moderation for calcium. I intake no vitamin C. Don't get sick and don't have scurvy. Been carnivore for 6 months of 0 vitamin C intake.
This was an overall good video though. And most of it seems accurate.
You can avoid keto flu with high electrolytes.
I want to try this but my overall cholesterol level on my last lot of bloods was 6.7! High cholesterol and heart disease runs in my family, I’m 41 and I’ve tried vegan but after 3 months I felt really ill and as soon as i went back to meat I felt much better, I’m gonna cut out carbs and sugar either way and I want to try carnivore but the high cholesterol is abit worrying…
Heart disease is really more about inflammation in the body, not cholesterol. From what I’ve seen, everyone on carnivore seems to have good blood work
I’ve seen a lot of recent studies done that show no correlation between elevated levels of LDL cholesterol and consumption of saturated fats. The increase of LDL cholesterol came from the consumption of refined carbs and sugar
@@nastbass Where are these studies and who made them?
@@hesitatenothing google is your friend
Look up dr Ken Berry Dr Shawn baker and Dr Phillip ovadia
They will point you to the studies and research on this topic.
Then enjoy a long life in ketosis
One of the best breakdowns on the Carnivore diet I have ever seen. He literally covered every facet of this diet in a short video...A++!!
This diet works crazy fast for weight loss and pretty quickly for cognitive boost, sense of well being and enhanced sleep---particularly if you incorporate real grass fed butter for the fats and butyric acid.
If you are worried about constipation or B.M.'s just make sure you eat enough fats (butter, bacon, meats with fattier content i.e. ribeye steaks). This is important for the ketosis component and will provide your system with the "lubrication" it needs.
Also, you exponentially increase your odds of not getting keto-flu symptoms if you stay super hydrated. I added hydration packets to all the water I drank every day and I never experienced the flu.
Finally, doing this diet is akin to doing an elimination diet, hence all the healing miracles you hear. It cleared up my psoriasis. So if you decide to add plants again or go back to your former diet, do it slowly and see how every food affects you.
Good luck!
this is kind of extreme, i think a balanced diet with low carbs, high protein and vitamins like carrots, calcium from cheese and lots of eggs is the way to go, throw a little whole bread from time to time...
If anyone is considering going the Gravity Transformation plan, do it. I Lost 30+ lbs. It's hard work, so need to take it seriously, but definitely worth it
If its good enough for T rex and my kitty cat its good enough for me.
I am 20 days into carnivore diet i have never ending diarrhea and unintentional weight loss, with 192 cm i weight only 65 kg, how can i gain weight with carnivore and stop diarrhea? i also have lactose intolerance and SIBO...
Are you COMPLETELY dairy free? None whatsoever? I would eat the lion diet. Beef, salt, and water. Nothing else. Including coffee, tea, seasoning, etc. I’ve healed my gut that way.
@@Kim-hb8ri i was completely dairy free eating only beef and fish and lamb but after 2 month i lost too much weight and ended up in hospital
i have a question im about to start an all meat diet but for snacks can i still have certain fruits ?
i’m doing the carnivore diet rn and i eat some fruits before a workout. The plan i follow is bananas, apples, and berries..(strawberry’s, raspberries, blackberries, blueberries) and sometimes i eat oranges bec they’re so good lol
@@iwillloveyou4ever thank you! this will really help me a lot
We have the luxury of overthinking food. For now...
if we was thinking for ancient man there wasn’t so many carbs around so why is using ketones for considered as a backup system when to me it should be primary system carbs was made much later
I do 4 eggs, cottage cheese, cheese, ground turkey with Greek yogurt,pb powder and whey protein in one meal and chicken breast cheese light amount of salsa with Greek yogurt, pb powder, and whey protein in the side for meal 2 is this sustainable?
no. eat fatty meat not junk lean chicken. ditch the powder, not needed.
I think it's great information. But I think I'll stick to a normal diet, working out and eating healthy. I can't imagine a situation, outside of obesity, that I would want to eat only one thing at every meal. Why would I do that to myself?
I would rather manage how much I eat, eat healthy foods, eat better sources of foods, and work out.
I know it's a cartoon, but your 'before and after' is not a 30-day transformation. Also, the Nature Valley granola commercial was a hilarious extra.
Can some one answer me?is Even you eat not limit the calories in carnivore diet,you eat too much it is still lose weight?
Yes you eat until you are happy and full and you will still lose weight no matter how much you eat.
Yeah, it works. I need to do this again. But I also noticed I needed to stretch more when in ketosis. Anyone else have that experience?
I lost 40lbs in two months and detoxed myself. Testosterone shit through the roof and white blood cells dropped. Did lose some strength. When I added fruits I felt so much better.
Howd your calesterol go
