I'm 8 month carnivore. I'm down 50 lbs. Arthritis gone from feet legs arms hands and neck.off all my medicines, high blood pressure and anxiety meds..... Changed my life forever
So about 6 lbs a month??
@@scottmeskan1931 I have been doing it for six months and am done 45 lbs. I lost my weight very fast within two months. I am now maintaining but I do cheat with some carbs.
Beef heals the body, cattle heal the land! Look into Carbon Cowboys!
Great comment!!
I’m 65, eating carnivore a year and 1/2 now both wife and I. Lost 70Ibs in 6 months, pain in feet, knee, hip, shoulder and neck gone!!!! Feel better now than I did at 35. My story is similar to Pete’s, funny thing is my 24x60 ft green house now has an above ground pool inside for my grandkids. Things become simpler, grocery shopping is quick and easy, no more walking every aisle, time spent in the kitchen is reduced tremendously, no more food prep, cooking time is cut drastically, less dishes to wash, it s amazing how much time you gain back eating carnivore. Within 3 weeks carnivore my wife went from having to use a walking cane because of sciatica for two years to walking without the cane and without pain. Both of us are back to our weight we were in high school and feel fantastic.
I'm 100% carnivore - I eat every other day.
Lost 110 pounds in 6 months, 5 years ago. Of course, I feel great.
That's awesome 👍
...and thank you for your testimony. It's appreciated.
Well done. Im 30 down and the pace of fat loss has increased since I went from low carb to full Carnivore two weeks ago. I got all the benefits everyone mentioned and I have no desire to cheat, snack or to be obsessed about food and eating.
Wow that's amazing.
Hi Pete, I'm day 74 on carnivore. I was going to do this for 30 days but decided it's very good. My brain cleared up the first week. Also slept thru the night. The second week I stopped frantically running to the bathroom. And my feet were feeling better. I couldn't touch my toes without extreme pain. Couldn't wear shoes over a year.
My skin was hanging off my arms, I would bruise easily and the skin would tare. Now my skin is getting thicker and I have little muscles. Waiting for my turkey neck to disappear.😊
Love my meat, butter and the most nutritious food in the world: fresh farm eggs.
BTW, I'm 68, 5'-5", 125lbs, don't want to lose weight.
I had the same experience as you. Plant based, then vegetarian, eating organic fruit and veg, no sugar, alcohol or processed foods. I had an assortment of health concerns that crept up on me, fibroids, stiff shoulder, IBS, poor sleep etc. All disappeared completely in the first few weeks of a carnivore lifestyle. It’s been 3 months now and I’m back to the shape I was in my 30s (I’m 62). The biggest surprise was that after 5 weeks my nasal polyps disappeared. I’d been battling with them for 30 years, constant sneezing, puffy face, steroids, 2 surgeries and they still grew back. I’m completely well and pain free for the first time in decades. It’s amazing how fast the body heals on this diet.
Please I am interested can you give me your meal plan and exactly what you have for breakfast lunch and dinner every day so I can prep for it. I’m very interested please.
@@user-ci4pf9dx6x Hi, it took a week or two to work out what I like and how much I need to buy but this is what I eat now: Breakfast, around 10am is a salmon fillet and 7 slices of streaky bacon (you may call it something different, thin fatty strips). I don’t need lunch. My next meal is around 6pm when I have a ribeye steak and a fried egg. I have cooked chicken thighs and cooked bacon in the fridge in case I feel hungry at lunchtime. I also buy pate sometimes to get some organ meat. After my health was back to 100% I added in a few blueberries after my steak. I can’t tolerate any dairy so don’t use butter or cheese like some carnivores, I cook with beef dripping or tallow. I bought some puffed pork snacks in case I needed to snack in the evenings but I’ve dropped that now. I gave up tea just in case that small amount of plant made a difference. I just drink water now and don’t miss the tea at all. I also supplement with 2 drops of Lugols iodine 12%, drunk in a glass of water daily. I think this helped dissolve the polyps. My grocery bill is less than when I was organic fresh fruit and veg based. I hope that helps, good luck with your carnivore journey.
Did the Uterine fibroids disappear with Carnivore and how long did it take?
@@gingercameronfordcrouch7057 I left a reply about my diet but it disappeared. See KenDBerryMD channel, a video called ‘You’re iodine deficient’. With Dr David Brownstein. Super helpful. Dr Ken says give it 90 days to see fibroids reverse. I’m not quite 90 days yet but can hardly feel them now. It was so bad before it was causing a prolapse so that’s a huge improvement. I’m sure it was the carnivore/iodine combo that did it.
@@user-ci4pf9dx6x My comment disappeared so here goes again: Breakfast is a salmon fillet with 7 strips of fatty bacon. My evening meal is a ribeye steak with a fried egg. I gave up tea and don’t miss it so only drink water now. I can’t have any dairy (I think it causes fibroids) so don’t eat cheese or butter like some carnivores. I cook with beef dripping or tallow. I keep cooked chicken thighs and cooked bacon in the fridge in case I get hungry mid day and to start with I had pork puff snacks for the evening but have dropped that now. When I was healthy again I added a few blueberries after my steak. I also supplement with Lugols iodine, 12%, 2 drops drunk in water every day. Good luck with your carnivore journey.
I have been keto or carnivore since 2018. Down more than 100 lbs and reversed hypertension and diabetes. You are definitely on the right track.
I never could do a successful garden. Now the pressure is off!
😂😂😂😅
😂
Hahaha I def can relate to that 😂
Me too! Only certain veggies did well. Fruit trees too.
Awesome I did carnivore for 90 days at the beginning of the year. I only lost 15 lbs. I have discovered I'm insulin resistance. But my cholesterol went down 100 points while I was on it and it brought my HDL and triglycerides to normal levels. I have several health issues. Anyway I have stopped now been 3 month and eating carbs again and feeling crappy again. I also ended up having a major heart attack It was a blood clot. So as of today I have restarted the carnivore diet. I will be 70 next week and I want to live at least another 5 years feeling good again. DR Ken Berry is who I listen to Good luck and God Bless.
I still don't know what insulin resistant means.
@@danajacobs9097 it means that losing weight is harder because the body stores excess blood sugar as fat. I have high blood pressure and i'm a diabetic so it is more difficult for me to loose the weight.
@@louisekelly2802 oh okay. Thank you for the explanation. You explained it perfectly
@louisekelly2802
Intermittent Fasting is a Fantastic way to help your body break the cycle of Insulint Resistances. Dr. Boz has a Blood Glucose/Keytone meter that's a great tool. Hang in there! ❤
@@louisekelly2802stick with it it’s not gonna be fun the first week but it works this has been life changing for our family. My son 17 got diagnosed with diabetes 2 on April 24 2023 we did plant base he was sick nausea was on metformin short acting insulin long acting insulin hbp medication and cholesterol. I went through a deep dive to help my son who is also autistic and in September 7 2023 we started carnivore his A1C at time of diagnosis was 11.6 4 weeks later of just carnivore meals and cutting off sugar everything and carbohydrates his A1C was 8.4 in the months of November 2 1/2 months later his A1C was 6.7 and in May 2024 his A1C was 4.7 today my son is no longer diabetic all his medication was stopped after 3 months of carnivore under the doctors orders he lost 75lbs than February my husband gave carnivore a try after being diabetic 2 since 2008 he also got the same miraculous results his A1C is 5.1 and we eat just meat water salt eggs sometimes cheese and that’s all coffee here and there with cream no sugar and guess what my husband build muscle mass reverse his vision loss and neuropathy we wish more people could do it . Also we save hundreds in grocery bills we buy just mean about 100 a week when before we spend 300-400 in junk foods that were all carbohydrates and no value to our bodies. I hope you hang in there and stick for long term the weight loss will definitely happen if you stay strict carnivore no sugar no carbohydrates. I wish you good luck
I'm 7 months carnivore. -53# and feeling crazy good. I'm 60 yrs old, started sprinting, swimming daily and tons of energy. No soreness, no stiffness, no arthritis...sleep like a baby. Lower food budget --- no rotting vegetables in my fridge. No complex food prep. Amazing!
I’ve been jogging for short distances and now I’m able to sprint. 6 sprints, twice a week at present. Very energizing. I walk almost every day, too. I will be 75 soon.
I was vegetarian 50 years! I was a BELIEVER! 15 years ago I became very ill from Lyme, and then Electro-sensitive. I was tested for food allergies, and crappola- I was allergic to every single veg and fruit that i ate, not allergic to any meat. So I had to eat meat for a few months, improved, but went back on my veges- I still could not conceive that meat was GOOD! Some of us are slow learners. It took another 10 years before I heard about carnivore, and now, 18 months carnivore, and such amazing results.
I still deal with Lyme and mold, so I'm not perfectly healthy. But the improvements are far reaching, and I believe this is the best way to nourish my body to overcome my health issues.
Thanks for presenting Sally Norton's book. It helped me tremendously. I had painful oxalate dumping, but that resolved with her book's info. All my Best to You!!
Judy Cho for mold!
She’s here on YT
Excellent practitioner
I know. We close our minds to certain things. Better late than never.

I've been Carnivore for over 13 months and could not have said any of this better! Spot on! Thanks and congratulations on fixing your health.
I was carnivore back when it wasn't popular. I did great, but once our garden produce came in, the sweet watermelon got me. I went low carb for years. I'm 68 and I started falling without warning. Never been on any meds. I went strict low carb, but my knee kept buckling and I did not have the muscle strength to stop my fall, so I came back to strict carnivore. Within a couple of weeks, I wasn't falling any more and within a month, I wasn't feeling like I needed to hold on to rails when going up and down stairs. I've been carnivore 18 months and I'm staying put. The fresh produce, that my husband brings in, doesn't call my name any more. My husband has never had a broken metabolism and he's still his high school size. He's on no meds, but I see him having some joint issues. Wish I didn't have to deal with having to can the produce and cook it... carnivore is so simple. I already warned my husband, if he develops hypertension, diabetes, dementia, etc, then he's going carnivore like it or not.
I have two dobies and I love them to death. They are the best dogs and stick to me like velcro. Glad I'm strong now, because they run into me sometimes, when they're playing. I raw meat feed them and they are very healthy. I enjoyed your video and I subscribed.
That's awesome 👍
Just eating carnivore you got stronger how long did it take or did you add exercise walking and strength training in too!
@@gingercameronfordcrouch7057 ... No exercise. I went from very low carb to only meat. Can't remember exact because it's been over a year ago, but maybe a month. After a month, I quit holding to rails, as I went up and down stairs. Back this last Feb, I injured my knee on snow skiis. Twisted it bad and could barely walk. My family. friends, and I thought that I would be down for awhile. Nope, each day was a huge improvement. Withing 16 days it was completely healed. I give the credit to God, but he did give us a body that will heal itself, when fed appropriately.
The fruit will always call my name
Natures junkfood!
@@gingercameronfordcrouch7057 ... Something happened to my reply. Don't know if I may have said something against YT, but the short answer is I did not exercise and was somewhere around 1 month.
Started the Carnivore Diet about 3 months ago, mainly because of my lifelong battle with bloating and constipation. 3 months ago, I weighed 222 lbs, and as of this morning, I'm 194.5 lbs (a weight I hadn't been for 30+ years) for a total weight loss of 27.5 lbs. My bloating and constipation are gone, as well as acid reflux, fatty liver, brain fog, inflammation, etc. I went from pre-diabetic to normal. My cravings between meals have all gone. As I dont like being told what to eat, I'm not recommending this lifestyle change to anyone, but in my case, it has been a success. Be well...
Welcome the the carnivore club! I began carnivore last August after weighing 271 pounds with swollen ankles (symptomatic of congestive heart failure), shortness of breath mowing my lawn, and a blood pressure of 171/110! I'm still a work in progress, but I now weigh 222 with a blood pressure of 128/79 and no ankle swelling and no medications! I owe the improvement in my heath entirely to the carnivore diet. My goal is to get down to the 160's, as I'm only 5'7". Sending prayers for your continued health improvements on the carnivore diet!
That's awesome 👍
@jeff121inTN
Morning.. My story is like yours. My weight climbed to 264lbs.. n my BP was high like yours.. same with swelling in my legs.
Went hard-core Carnivore on month one ..
ZERO carbs, zero coffee, zero Alcohol, zero Processed Foods..
First Month n half, dropped 35lbs.
But I forgot about my Electrolytes.. which I passed out n scared everybody. My Sodium Levels tanked.. like someone zapped my battery. No energy.
We learn... Fast forward a year..
I'm down 70 lbs..
No meds.
But Because I've had a Gastric Bypass.. I take vit C w Rose Hip, K2/d3, Bio available Mag, Taurine, NAC n CoQ10. Spread taking them in am/pm.
I'm learning more about our Carnivore blood work.. and what good looks like. Love that Meat butter n salt helps in healing so many.. so much. The journey is worth it!
❤️👍
Good for you Pete. I’ve been eating ketovore/carnivore since January and feel so much better. I used to think I’d get tired of eating mostly meat every day but it’s just the opposite, I love it even more.
You start to crave fat instead of sugar in my experience.
I felt so good on keto. Did it on and off for 20 years. It's been years since I ate clean keto, and I'm sure feeling the need to go back on it as I age.
The pain from inflammation is getting to me. I know it will take care of that pain.
We were raised to eat a certain way, but it's obviously not in our best interests.
Those of us who educate ourselves about nutrition, no more than most mainstream doctors!
Know..not no😢
I’m glad you found carnivore. Same here, went from 224 in January down 30 pounds. I just pulled out my last garden.
It's very sad, but sugar addiction is very real! And when they say sugar is as destructive as meth .. . that's no joke! Your friend who lost a leg reminds me of a young woman I knew who had gotten on meth; it destroyed her physically, just as sugar is doing to your friend, and she passed away in her early 40's. Trouble is, sugar consumption is normalized, even encouraged . . . everybody does it, and even organizations like the American Heart Association have gotten into the act with the endorsement of products like Honey Nut Cheerios! Meanwhile, our health is on a decline - even life expectancy has gone down - while the big food companies and big pharma continue to line their pockets at our expense!
I’m so proud of you! I’m 1 year 4 months carnivore! Im 53 and feel 23!
Good for you you are doing the right thing I am 86yrs old been carniver way to eat it's 3months lost 20 pounds 4in off my waist feel great cancer bladder gone I put my life in God's hands it's great God is good to us Thank you foryour testimony 😂❤😂❤
That is great to hear 👍
Great video..53 been carnivore for 3 months.Feeling great.lost 17 Lbs.keep spreading the word.Awsome!
My husband does Carnivore. He now weighs 130 pounds-no gut. He went from a 34 waist below his gut. Now he is 30”. He is 74 and can put most 30 year olds to shame.
It makes me happy to see a woman say something nice about her husband.
I went carnivore a year ago and feel SO MUCH BETTER! I lost some weight, but feel 40-years younger.
My mood increased
Energy somewhat
I had some body recomp at first
But after 5 mos might have lost 10 out of 60# I needed to lose
Sigh
I am on day 53! Feeling great despite having given up coffee 13 days ago as it affected my fat consumption.
We are on the same side
Welcome to carnivore! Like you, I grew many veggies here in Central TX. Thry always broke my heart - infestations, poor growth, etc...Spent a fortune on compost, etc...now I raise chickens. They are fantastic. The eggs are like vitamin pills.
I have never had the inclination to be vegetarian thank goodness. I used to laugh at my friends who were, and I ordered meat, and back then it was 20 buffalo wings with blue cheese and nothing else. They would say I was skinny only by accident and I would pay for it later. 2 decades later I’m still under 100 pounds, no medication, and they’re all overweight and on meds.
Under 100 and u eat 20 wings lol
Such a helpful video!!! Your results are actually unreal. Congrats sir. Day 50 on the carnivore diet for me and I needed this encouragement. 🤍 wishing you & your wife well and continued healing!
Thank you so much 🙏

Not gonna touch the biblical reference, but just to inform ruminants can and do carry internal parasites. They're less likely to develop an overload of parasites when ranchers practice rotational grazing and their pastures or enclosures are kept clean and relatively dry, but they can still contract them from the environment, nearby wildlife etc. In fact, keeping both sheep and goats well in the rainy season can be really hard on pastures where the rainwater doesn't drain well. I can't tell you the number of fellow farmers / ranchers I know that have lost almost their entire herds to barber pole worm, for example.
Just want folks to know for the sake of everybody's health, especially if anyone eats big game regularly. Deer, bison, elk, moose, mule deer, pronghorn etc. are all ruminants as well but are all also susceptible to and frequently found to have internal parasite infections. So if you eat a lot of big game, just be mindful and take steps to make sure the meat you eat is safe.
Just listened to your video, a fellow neighbor here in East Texas. Same issues until I went carnivore. Now seven months into carnivore. I see your freeze dryer in background. Now I hardly use it. No fd bananas, no zucchini, no rice and beans, sometimes freeze dry my eggs. I thought I was eating healthy. Now, like you no arthritis, no joint pain, no sugar cravings, no anxiety, which is and was amazing. My skin tags are going away, no tennis elbow, no out of breathe from exertion. I have only lost 27 lbs. but I realize that will take more time as I heal my body. I see those at the doctors office and I think that was me. Scary! Saw someone with Parkinson disease and I wanted to tell them about carnivore. Keep up the good work. I am so much stronger too. Did you catch doctor Ken Berry video on visceral fat and how harmful and how to get rid of it?
Awesome to hear your story and healing from the diet. Yes it's crazy how this has turned everything in life upside down but for the good.
Incredible three weeks transformation.
What amazes me about eating this way is that I'm not hungry despite exercising. Granted it took me a while to get there but now there are days that I don't feel hungry or eat anything, sometimes despite weight lifting. I'm slowly losing weight without effort, and I "cheat" on a weekly basis when I get together with family and there's fruits or berries, cookies, chocolate etc.
Yes! That was 82 year old Maggie who lives on a farm in Canada. She was interviewed for a documentary by the guy that runs the HomeSteadHow channel (can't think of his name). Anyhow - DANG! She looks like she's in her 50's. No lie. Great stuff.
I know she looks awesome 👍
His name is Kerry Mann ☺️. Can’t wait for the documentary!
It's great to see the growing list of CZcamsrs talking about the carnivore diet.
I hope your regular audience will take your advice and do their own research because it's the only way to actually get healthy.
No doctor, no drug and no carb will fix the human body (or mind).
Ditch "em all and just eat meat!!!!
You need to add No Carb Life to your recommendations. It is a wonderful channel and I try to watch an episode every day for motivation.
im on carnivore also. its been three and half months . i am doing better but still healing. lost 28 lbs but need to lose 32 lbs more. i have lots of health issues to heal up. i hope we all can do this successfully. its hard!
GREAT NEWS, Pete! Glad you're doing something to improve y'all's health. We've been at it for going on 9 years (gradual changes) and the energy and health benefits are amazing. we set up our homestead to grow veggies for animals, not us. AWESOME NEWS!!!!
Yep it looks like I'll be gardening for our chickens 😄
@@petebeasttexashomesteading I CAN'T WAIT to hear your update after 90 days. Once you've reached that point, you'll feel like you're 30 again...at 51, turning 52 later in the year...haven't had "allergies" or joint pains, or any other pains...any who, holler at me via the email address if you want to know more about another's experience and we'd be glad to share ours with you.
One more thing which i forgot to mention...our estimated 10yo GSD (rescued almost 9 yrs ago) is also on carnivore...that includes anything we trapped, hunted, or at times, buy...but meat and organ meat, raw. He acts like he's 4, even the vets think he's 4 (on the rare occasion we had to take him in for some weird infection because he gets bitten by something we don't know or at one point, developed an allergy to chicken from the store bought chicken due to the chemicals in their feed). Super healthy, plays and does the daily patrol of our property with THE Moth (Man of the House) with gusto. he'd go up against a wild boar about 175lbs and hold his own...fearless!
Great job. I did a 29 day water fast and then continued eating Keto. Total game changer.
29 days no food?
@@convid1941 Yep. Just water. Dropped 50lbs during that time. All while working overtime as an iron worker. I think the record is over a year but, you would have to be very very fat to start.
@@concernedcitizen8481wow! I already struggle going beyond 48hrs
@@andyc7747 I was very hungry and a bit tired the first few days. Around day 4 I was in full ketosis and all my energy came back and it was no longer hard to do. I didnt feel euphoric but mental clarity was sharper than normal ( my brain interpreted the blueprints I read at work faster) and I slept much better too. The only downsides was I would get lightheaded for a sec or 2 if I stood up from a squatting position too fast. Plus not eating is very boring.
@@concernedcitizen8481Water fasting is a great!
As we age, we have to learn to adapt to our body changes. Congratulations dude!
You remind me of myself a lot, we look alike and we are even both from Michigan originally, I have a small homestead here in Alabama and everything that was plaguing you is plaguing me, I’m going to take your advice and give this a try, thanks for the info.
Awesome 👍
Thanks for sharing, you speak for all of us ❤
You were in my CZcams feed today. I live in East Texas and eating carnivore mostly, trying to clean my eating up. You have links to most the folks I’ve listened to. I’m considering a freeze dryer for eggs. I’ve had a hard time with palate fatigue and hope I can overcome it. Today is another day. Trying to stick to BBBE. Good message, thanks for the encouragement.
Omg I need to start this diet , I have terribles allergies and eczema and I gained weight 😒. I need to start this diet. Thank you for sharing it.
Hi, you won't regret it best thing 8ve ever ever done❤❤ female carni here
I am happy and proud of you for turning your health around like that. A grouchy Pete is not good!
Dr. Robert Atkins back in the 70’s developed his Atkin diet. High fat for two weeks then no more than 9 grams of simple carbohydrates at a meal. No breads.
Really like your simple clear cut video. I started keto then Ketovore and now carnivore thanks to Dr. Berry. Meat in a cast iron skillet with lard or bacon grease. My a1c went from 10.6 to 5.3 and I went from 312 to 215 in 14 months, with zero medications and no longer in high blood pressure medication. I do consume a lot of pork( monogastric animal) along with venison and I limit chicken to gizzards, hearts, and liver. Well done on your video
Wow you look awesome!
My household of 6 has been doing Carnevore since January. I was never a huge meat eater, but I crave it now. I also have noted an elevated mood level and zero anxiety. I'm 60, and have lost 50 lbs, and it couldn't have been easier.
That's awesome 👍
Welcome to the club.. been this way for three years now and will never go back..
👍
Sugars and seed oils are killers, Pete. Focus on grass fed, grass finished meats and you will get a proper ratio of omega 6/omega 3 fatty acids. Grain fed meats (like what you get for 'cheap' at the grocery store) will give you WAY too much omega 6.
This approach has helped me go from 320 lbs to 213 lbs in the past 2-1/2 years. I want to drop another 25 or so pounds, but as long as I'm eating properly I know that will eventually come to pass.
I've found a local beef supplier that grows grass fed, grass finished cows. It is more expensive than what you buy at the grocery store, but there is no comparison in quality. What price can you put on good health? I've also started raising my own meat chickens on pasture. I feed them non-GMO feed along with the grass and bugs that they forage for. The flavor of this chicken is way better than what you find in the grocery store.
Take care and God Bless.
p.s. - Look into Intermittent Fasting next. That REALLY turbo-charged my weight loss.
Someone has done their homework. right on sir!
So what will you do on your homestead? I see you growing things! I had a small homestead..got rid of all my fruit trees and raised beds. Also, you would love Dr Sean O’mara! He recommends fermented veggies, so I do eat kimchi and sauerkraut! 6 years carnivore….love it
I was also experiencing an accumulation of physical issues. As an extremely active, outdoorsy person, I felt as though I was completely breaking down, so then I started sinking into sadness and hopelessness. Then the weight started creeping up.
I don’t know how I stumbled onto Carnivore almost four months ago, but there wasn’t one particular “influencer” who convinced me - it was the thousands upon thousands of everyday people commenting on Carnivore CZcams videos sharing their testimonials. I was blown away.
My thought was, ‘ALL these people can’t be wrong, they can’t be liars.” What did I have to lose?
Best decision ever on multiple levels. Aside from the health benefits, grocery shopping is simple and less expensive, meal prep is a whiz. I appreciate the simplicity of Carnivore - it is such a remarkable blessing and oasis in an insane, chaotic world.
I tell people that if my blood pressure gets any lower, they’ll be harvestig my organs… 🤣😆
Dave, No Carb Life would probably like to interview you on his channel. Have a look! 🤓
Yes! Please contact him!
Yes! I second this, Dave’s channel is a favorite of mine.
New here yes carnivore starting 90 days loss 90 pounds and stay active eat clean no meds at all best diet ever worked for me don’t even crave sugar or any of the harmful things ! You’re exactly right and coming from a person knowing from experience.
I’ve wanted to start a Carnivore diet for a while now. Have all the symptoms you talked about. I just Sally K’s book through your link. Praying for the best.
Awesome you'll really learn a lot about plants and how they are destroying our health.
Thanks Pete. My wife and I are suffering from all of what you mentioned in your vlog. We sold. We are going to try the carnivore diet.
And you will not be sorry😊
Awesome glad to hear that 👍
You will bitterly regret
not trying carnivore sooner.
Instead of relying completely on a vlogger....get a thorough physical from a doc beforehand. Tell the doc of your desire to go carnivore, too
Good luck
Enjoy your new life 🎉🥩🧈🥓🍳✨
i was thinking to change to carnivore diet for at least 2 months...I just got out of the hospital with heart problems, tyroid and high blood pressure ++ never guessed that i had any health issues since i try my best to eat healty...so now i know i need to take charge of my diet in a different way...u look nice...
I'm 65 and went on it last October. I'm now down 80# and all my blood tests are spot on normal range for the first time in 25 years. I had a LOT of health issues and they are all gone now. Doc said, whatever you are doing, keep doing that. Until I told him I was doing carnivore and he told me I shouldn't do that. I asked him why and he said it wasn't healthy. I said, "Look at my test results and tell me what part isn't healthy. Also, compare that to my physical from last year and tell me what change has been unhealthy." He looked, got a little red in the face, and said, "Well, generally it's not a healthy thing but I can't argue with success. Your numbers look better than mine." So he couldn't admit he was wrong but he couldn't admit I was right either. LOL!. If you do this, the things I would change about going on with similar conditions to yours is phase over to it, drink LOTS of electrolytes to begin with, understand the first 7-10 days you won't feel great while your body is transitioning, and don't do it cold turkey. Phase transition over 3-4 days because your body is used to running on straight glucose and adaptation is a thing. The best thing I did right other than actually doing it is LEARN as much as you can from online medical experts, particularly Dr. Ken Barry. Go back tin their timelines and learn what's going on and why. Good luck.... good health!
never heard the term "air hunger" before but had it all my life. Until 15 months ago when I started carnivore. I've had so many positive results but didn't realize that was one until you mentioned it.
I had that for so long too, they checked me for everything and eventually put me on allergy medication, which I did not take because I knew it wasn’t allergies. Eventually they checked my iron and realized how deficient I was, that caused the air hunger for me - meat based was the solution, so thankful to have found it.
@@denisea.9033 That makes so much sense, thanks! Drs always said it was all in my head...
@@juliathomas3380 you’re welcome!! That’s the default for when they don’t have answers for us; that or “You ARE getting older”.
From another East Texan, so happy you have went Carnivore. It is the best! Now, maybe you should put cows on the land where you use to grow vegetables. I don’t drink it because it’s inflammatory to me, but many people on carnivore drink raw kefir or raw milk that’s unpasteurized.
Thanks, Pete. I've come to realise that we need all the stories like yours. Found you next after a Dave Mac vid. Glad I clicked. Let's all eat meat!
Awesome, thank you!
turning 60 this year and have been a carnivore for 14 months now so I can relate to what you are going through now. Watched your previous videos and it must feel strange to change 180 degrees to what you are doing now😉
Look at Dr. Chaffee. He's a carnivore doctor and he is ripped and as ripped as he was in his 20's with less workout soreness because of carnivore. The meat and fat fix hormones and also it's easier to put on muscle with carnivore. So things were changed but with carnivore, you can train and be even better than you were when you were young. I have a client who seriously weightlifts and strength trains 3 times a week, and stair trains (thousands of steps) at the beach, at age 79.
Michigan Carnivore here. We love our smoked Salmon. We agree about loving the simplicity of meal prep as well as lowered grocery bills.
I have been following since 2017. Was so glad to find her.
excellent advice thank you. I always wondered why I never ever had a problem when I ate beef.
Those PVCs sound very distressing. Glad you are feeling better.
I love this video. Great info. I could listen to you all day. Congrats to you and your wife ❤
Thank you
Thanks for a great and very informative video. Now you can plant many beautiful flowers and give them away to friends, family, strangers.... I'm on my 18th month carnivore and am thanking God daily for this ancestral way of eating REAL nutrient-dense FOOD.
Thank you for the testimony. ❤
been doing ketovore/carnivore for about 3 years. Read Ben Bikman Why we get sick. No seed oils... Keep it up..
Being on carnivore has given me strength, mental clarity, boundless energy and such a sense of peace and calm. But best of all my blood sugar problem is fixed. No Metformin for me. Great video. Thanks for sharing your story.
I'm not as tall as you but I started at 192lbs and in 3 weeks I lost 22 lbs eating total Carnivore. I now weigh 155lbs, I feel great and I do Keto Now. My Doctor asked me what the hell happened and I am not on any meds anymore either. No more processed foods anymore. Yes we have been lied too. I'm 65 years young and enjoy getting up every day not in pain or headaches anymore.
That's awesome 👍
Yea all drs need to sayvyhatbto thete patientsband deep dive into what we are doing ot trying to do as good as we possibly can on no budget.
Thanks! Great video. Congratulations on your renewed health and weight loss. Inspirational for me as well. God bless!
Sally Norton’s book is so enlightening! Highly recommend it. Learned so much from her.
Congrats on your journey.
Nutrition with Judy is another great channel for healing 👍
Wonderful recap of your recent journey. You should contact Dave Mac, “no carb life” he’d love to have you on.
I’m 67 female. This month, I’m eating grass fed/grass finished ground beef to see if there is a difference. I Always eat pastured eggs, but only yolks, usually poached 4 min in
water, then put on top of gr beef with tallow or butter.
Adding weight workouts 2x/wk. at hone
What kind of changes did your wife see?
Keep up the good work & enjoy your metamorphosis!
Thanks, my wife has lost some weight also and joint pains are gone.
Also oxalates can lead to kidney stones my husband excluded a lot of oxalates in his diet and it has improved his kidneys so much
Glad I found your video. It all makes sense. You had my attention from the beginning to the end. Thanks 4 sharing!😀
Congratulations, love the video. Some great motivation to do better and follow this plan.
Congratulations on finding this way of eating!
Wow, you just answered a lot of things for me that I have been puzzled with!! Your honesty and personal experiences and your abilty to make your self open and transparent to us is so valuable... BIG Thank U's to you kind Sir..
Thank you, glad it helped.
The Father did give us fruit and vegetables and herbs and flowers. He gave them to us seasonally. To fatten us up for the winter. Also there are many plants that can be used medicinally 😊
AMEN!! It's all about portions and selection. Man has been consuming grain for thousands of years with no problems and very little if any obesity.
And vegetables.
“To Adam he said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat from it,’ “Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat food from it all the days of your life. It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field.”
Genesis 3:17-18 NIV
This curse was never lifted anywhere in the Bible. The blessing given by Jesus was only for man not the land.
I agree with you 💯 percent. But the problem is that all the common garden vegetables we grow and eat today did not exist at creation. Almost all the vegetables we grow today have only been in our diet for about 500 years. It started when Christopher Columbus and the Spaniards went to Central and South America and found all these different types of vegetables that we have today and brought them back to Europe and grew them there where they were pollinated and hybridized over the years.
Animals have been selective bred, cross bred thousands of times since biblical times. If you think your eating the same meat as biblical times sorry but you are mistaken.
Your channel showed up for the first time today. I’m also Carnivore in East Texas.
Me too…Carnivore🥩for 6 months who lives in the Piney Woods of East Tx. Lost lots of weight, lots of improvements, mental clarity returned, etc…No going back. Carnivore for life!🥩🥩🥩
@@sandracox3024 near Palestine area?
@@texasleslie I have lived in Palestine before so I know exactly where it is. We are just south of Lufkin.
Wow, no more gardening. Sheep, cattle, goats, deer, giraffes and llamas are ruminant animals. This means that they have a four-chambered stomach. The four chambers of the ruminant stomach are the reticulum, rumen, omasum and abomasum. The rumen serves as a large fermentation vat in which bacteria and other microorganisms reside.
You did such a great job telling people about how and why to get started at Carnivore!!!
I will be forwarding your video to people as I am lead to do so, in the future! Thank you!
Thank you
Thank you for pointing out the difference between visceral fat, which can raise blood pressure , and subcutaneous fat, which cushions the skin. Cattle have 4 digestive chambers.
Thank you for sharing. I’m on 4 days carnivore. Have all the symptoms you have,I’m 58.
Not seeing any health and weight loss yet. Hope to get the same results when I hit one month.🎉
Thank you so much for sharing!
Thanks for the info. Not raising a garden will give us money to afford the meat.
Great job! Keep it up!
Thank you for this video 🙏🏻 I can see from some of the comments here that you have already had a good influence on people’s thoughts on this healthful way of living. Congratulations for finding life again! 🥩
Just started carnivore....having mental withdrawal about no more veggie gardening!! Maybe grow flowers? Lol. Will miss it much
My mind has been blown apart Pete.
Me too
@@petebeasttexashomesteading - I've been diving into this topic. It looks like there's a pretty big movement that believes all plants are toxic. But that can't be right. I can think of bananas and avocados right off the bat that would be hard to poke holes in. There has to be others that when prepared correctly are not toxic. For example, I believe that beans, when pressure canned release their lectins.
I have an orchard the same size as yours. I would love to figure out some use for it. But first I need to try carnivore for myself and see if I feel any different.
I am trying to get my husband to go carnivore..your story is so similar to his...he is so stubborn though..thanks for sharing
It took my husband 9 months to finally join me on this way of eating, don’t lose hope!
Great news! ❤
I have had air hunger so bad often on the last couple years. It is extremely stressful and worry some now that you brought it up. I've noticed. I've been good for the past month. I have been carnivore for just over 4 months.
It's a methlfolate and B12 deficiency that the plant based diet gave me. About a year ago I started taking 7.5 to 15 mg a day of methlfolate plus a good quality high potency methl b complex or just b12 vitamin and it went away.
Hi Pete, Are you going to start raising cattle or just buy from stores? You're looking better and getting rid of that visceral fat is the best thing for your health. Too many carbs equals too much sugar which is our enemy. So many diseases are cured by doing what you are doing. God Bless.
We'll be looking into raising animals too
I'm with you 100% meat is not boring obesity pain and discomfort can get pretty boring.
im with you, Pete! im on the same journey as you
Just started this about a month ago myself. Im 62 at 5'6" and 220 lbs. Im stocky and very thick Mediterranean build. I carry the weight easily and people never think I weigh what i weigh BUT i was having all the same issues you were having and was hesitant about trying carnivore because of all the negative connotations about cholesterol. I finally had enough of the bloating after meals, mostly from breads and sugars, and said what the hell. Do it. I did a 14 days fast to clean out. Then went right to carnivore. The results were AMAZING! Besides the weight loss, no bloating the mental sharpness and clarity were amazing. Energy through the roof! Growing up in an italian house with all the rich foods is going to be hard to move from is going to be hard to adjustfrom but the results are amazing. I went from 220 and now at 180. Gut almost gone. I think 170 is my target weight. NO MEDICATIONS. People need to try this if you have any ailments. Thanks for you video. Nice to see others in the same boat I was getting results
Hi. It was great finding your channel. I am from East Texas - born and raised in Tyler. Congratulations on your success on the carnivore way of eating.
Good info ❤
