I commonly get asked how to get started, and what to watch out for, so I try to address that here, along with common things that come up and trip people up with this new way of eating.
ALSO! You DON'T have to take any supplements in general. If you need to take supplements to get basic nutrition, then by definition your diet is deficient. Carnivore isn't. If you get tested and have a mild deficiency for some reason, which can rarely happen, that's when you think about supplementing. One thing to remember is that most people don't get enough sunlight, and if you're in the temperate latitudes you wont get enough anyway for 9months out of the year, even if you spend a lot of time outside. Animal fats and butter have vitamin D already in them, but if you're not getting enough for whatever reason, you can think about taking vitamin D3 (not D2) then.

I'm a 68 year old retired nurse. I just completed one month eating carnivore. For me, the results have been amazing. I have lost 18.5 pounds, my ulcerative colitis flare ups have disappeared, and for the first time in over 20+ years I am not anemic. I have been chronically anemic as long as I can remember. Had labs done last week and my hgb, hct, and rbc results were normal. Overall, I just feel healthier than I did one month ago. My favorite go to carnivore treat is bacon wrapped shrimp cooked on my grill.
Reading this makes me want to cry with hope. I've been diagnosed with crohns after years of he'll and all have been anemic for at least 10 years. Sugar is my addiction but stories like this give me the courage to try carnivore.
@@Alineko82 I have suffered from severe ulcerative colitis for years. I would have random flare-ups that were just miserable. I've been eating carnivore for 44 days and have only had one UC flare-up early on. I was a true junk food junkie. Surprisingly, I have no cravings for sugar or starchy foods anymore.
Sounds like an elimination diet, no veggies no fruit
@@Alineko82, best of luck. Thing is, you can do this. You slip, try again. There's no success without effort.
Bacon's a carcinogen, just like cigarettes and asbestos.
I'm over 3 years of mainly eating animal/fish products and my health, skin and body composition are awesome! Men and women ARE different in how they respond to foods, so, as a 50 year old woman, these are the things I learned along the way. Hope this helps:
* I lost too much weight early on because I wasn't eating enough and I wasn't eating enough fat. Overcoming 50 years of low fat, low calories brainwashing was hard.
* Experiment with the right level of fat for you. Too little and you're hungry with hard stools. Too much and you get diarrhoea. For me, a fatty ribeye is the perfect mix.
* I tried OMAD but just couldn't eat enough in one meal. I now eat 2 to 3 meals a day but in a max 8 hour window.
* I started getting leg cramps because my electrolytes were off so I added mineral drops to my water.
* I didn't know what hunger felt like so ate when I was bored or thirsty, confusing it with hunger. If you think you're hungry but the burger patty in the fridge isn't appealing, you're not hungry! Become mindful of how you feel.
* I'm a carb addict so I had to eliminate all carbs from my house. Remove temptations.
* Find ways to make it easy for yourself, only have good food in the house and cook more than you need at each meal so you've always got something healthy in the fridge if you do want to snack.
* I got really tired for the first few months and everyone told me I must eat carbs. It was because my body wasn't good at using fat for fuel. It took months to become fat adapted, once I was, my body always had fuel on tap!
* Finally, realise that the goal is to get to the point where you can eat intuitively, when you are genuinely hungry and stop when you are full. It may take years to get there (it took me around 18 months) but the end result is so worth it. Good luck everyone. x
My husband is carb addicted and unfortunately he’s super sick. High blood pressure, blood sugar so high for years unchecked so now he has to go on insulin. I’m having health issues. Kidney stones, arthritis, joint pain, brain fog, skin issues and more. I’m going to get week and hope I inspire my husband to do the same. Thank you
Excellent 👍 I just started carnivore a week ago and I feel better but I struggle with wanting bread etc
May I ask what everyone drinks ea day on carnivore? Water sucks plain ...I'd love to smash some lemons in ice cold water but idk if that will screw things up?
I eat lotsa chicken and dropped 9lbs in a week probably water weight from years of garbage processed bullshit food 😁
Diet coke out?
Thanks
if the burger patty in the fridge isnt appealing your not hungry is gold, thts brillant thanks😊
THANK YOU for sharing your wisdom with the rest of us. Highly appreciated.
Wish I could save this comment, it summarizes so well some top points about carnivore diet, really good input thanks ☺️💪
I’ve just turned 80 and have started the carnivore diet today
Just looking into it. I see you started a month ago. How are you feeling and how is it going?
yes please!
Amazing!! Update please!!
Yes, update please!
Wow
Started yesterday 3/4/24. I’m a 61 year old female with at least 40 pounds to lose. Wish me luck.
Good luck, you can do it!
Thank you
Down 10 pounds. I have a lot of energy which is a bonus.
Slow and steady wins the race.
@@lisa-mccallbarnes1283Awesome! Keep it up!
I'm on 6 weeks lost 28 pounds!! It's amazing
I love how some people have been on carnivore for a while but still took the time to watch a beginner video and add their own advice and talk about their experience.
I appreciate their input also
@@fitnavygirl1I don’t think this person was being rude about it, maybe this person was being positive. It’s really hard to say through text or messages because we can’t hear their tone, if they’re being sarcastic or genuinely being nice.
Me too ❤
Yes. It’s wonderful.
Epic comments
Call it Re affirmation
I've started carnivore and I've been told it's dangerous I'm ridiculous and blah blah. I'm 321 lbs high bp and I have pcos after doing a lot of research and listening to people like you and peoples testimonials. I've lost 10 pounds in 6 days so far and I'm just gonna keep going. 👍🏻
There are many doctors doing carnivore. See Dr Berry. Dr Baker( professional weight lifter).
Good job brother
One day at a time. Doing great.
This was so helpful‼️🙏
How are you getting on ?
That's cute..."If you slip up and eat rice that's ok..." I tend to slip up and eat a pint of caramel fudge ice cream!
Oopsie!
Ya i was expecting him to say ‘an entire pepperoni pizza’ …. Rice?
😂🎉😅
I hear you and I was right there with you but trust me when I tell you, if you give carnivore a month, you'll see things differently. I went to the Philippines on vacation for 10 days and indulged in rice and other carbs. I felt broken when I got home! Sore joints, terrible sleep, poor energy. I couldn't wait to get back on track. You don't know how bad you feel until you feel how you're supposed to and once you get there, those big cheats become less and less of an option
😂👍🏻
You and dr. Berry have changed my life. I’m a grown man and I’m getting emotional writing this out to you. From my wife, kids and myself. Thank you 🙏🏽
Lady Martinez thank you for this post! I am starting my journey and reading your success gave me the final push!
@Mas-ud Al-hassan I mean I imagine he got into medicine for the right reasons and probably has respect for Dr. Berry, hints why they have done podcast together, but you do you boo boo.
@mas-udal-hassan9277no….he does not😑
God Bless!
Don't let your emotions get in the way of facts. Brain fog from eating a keto/carnivore diet Ken Berry in his book on page 103 he says nuts and seeds are very healthy, the nutrients and fiber are great. Page 187 says I eat many servings of colorful veggies everyday. Page 192 says there are many days each week I eat no fiber at all. Page 205 says I often go days without eating anything but fatty meat. There are no references in the book to any study because he never read any studies he just says whatever he wants just to make money from dumdum.
My wife and I started this diet around 6 months ago. It’s mind blowing on what are bodies look like and have become! We do cheat 1x week and drink 4 days a week and still insane results. We are both in mid to late 50. The arthritis and joint issues and are completely gone for my wife. We literally ate salads packed with organic vegetables around 2 x a day for 30 years and it’s the salads that seemed to be the problem. “That’s actually crazy to say!”
My wife had I recently had a spinach salad with chicken and her arthritis came back within hours???
If you told me this a year ago. I’d say your crazy.
The only bad part is we keep having to buy new cloths because our others don’t fit anymore. Lol
Even know we’ve been walking and at gym our entire lives we were fit but nothing like we are now.
Eggs, Bacon, Butter, Salt, coffee with local honey, Ribeye, hamburger patty with cheese, Pineapple or occasional apple. That’s 95% of how I eat. Well over a pound of red meat a day.
Who would of thunk!? Media lies and obviously wants you sick to buy their products.
Oxalates in veggies are to blame. I’m so glad you’re better! I’ll be joining you!
Congrats, that is incredible! Do you feel weird at all when you do a cheat day? Considering doing this for a wedding comming up but don't want to feel awful!
@@serendipityblooming1244
We enjoy the cheat day but usually very short lived because it was extremely enjoyable for the 5 minutes of eating but we feel very after bloated and feel bad the next day. It’s almost not worth it! Lol
@@kurtwalker1125 Thank you so much for your reply! That totally makes sense. Glad to know it's all based on how you feel and listening to your body.
Its so nice to read about your success. Also nice that you found your way, that works for you. Congratulations to the both of you!
I started the carnivore diet on 9/27/23 and by mid February, I was down 75 lbs!
Wow..!!!!!
Wow. Thats amazing. Have you kept it off since. It’s April 25/24 today.
@@suelaughlin5769 He passed away 3 weeks ago.
any problems in the pooping situation?
I read that its good hydration, fats, and electrolytes are key to avoiding constipation. Mid research on this.
What cinched it for me was the video on reversing problems in senior care homes by putting them on carnivore diet.
I've always wondered why eating just meat can become so complicated and you've certainly simplified carnivore. I'm a 72 years young female and found my way to carnivore after Keto then ketovore for 2 1/2 years and the whole time on Keto/ketovore wondered why I was still eating veggies, fruits and salads and all the keto treats. Hated veggies, was never a fruit eater but the treats were nonstop. I lost 70 lbs eating that way then moved on to carnivore and never looked back BUT in the 1 1/2 years I've been carnivore I've not lost the additional fat that I need to lose and now I think I know why--it's the last vestiges of Keto; the dairy, the sweeteners, the coffee, the tea (I'm southern and we grew up with ice tea as our first drink in the sippy cup). Although I've not experienced the body fat loss and recomp that I want I feel like Benjamin Button and have reverse aged in so many fantastic ways; grey hair returned to light brown (formerly blonde), eyebrows have grown back in, spider/varicose veins have all but disappeared, age spots on my hands are completely gone, etc. Thank you for all you do to get the word out and if the younger generations adopt this way of eating they'll live the life we're supposed to live as humans.
DITTO!
wow! thanks for sharing, gives me inspiration!
That's amazing Kathy, I'm so glad to hear that! And yes I agree, those last vestiges, while few, are enough to hold you back. As I've said before, I think getting rid of the last 5% of plants and Artificial ingredients gives about 95% of the benefits. Try getting down to just meat and water for a month and see how you go, I think you'll be very pleasantly surprised. Good luck with it!
Very impressive! Certainly motivates me, thank you for sharing your experience
Something you didn't mention is fasting. You might try learning about that and experimenting with it. When we were wearing animal pelts and running around in the woods with spears thousands of years ago we didn't always kill something every single day and have a meal. Sometimes we failed and just didn't get to eat that day. We we're designed to healthily fast for a bit of time. Just make sure you know what you're doing and you do it safely. Good luck! Here's a very solid CZcams video from a Doctor getting into it.

When I went carnivore the first time, I would have loose stools and diarrhea not long after meals, sometimes up to 3-5 hours after. I read a tip that helped tremendously and that was to not guzzle water during my meals and to wait an hour after eating to drink water. I do want to say that NOT everyone has this issue because my carnivore group sure didn't but I did. Just putting this out there for someone.
Same issue here
@@donsmith8300 The good news is that the issue never came back and only does when I drink water during a meal. Its a hassle but just a small annoyance. I'll deal lol
So are you able to drink protein shakes?
@@Pipefitter666 Couldn't say as I don't drink them
Hi! I definitely get this. 3 weeks in and still 💥💩 I will try to not drink so much. How many glasses did you have to balance things out?
So I started my carnivore way of eating a little under 4 weeks ago. I was at the stage where everything hurt, energy was really low, i was napping 2 or 3 times a day at 65 years old. I was exhausted by the smallest physical tasks and about to accept that my trajectory was down quickly from here to a rocking chair and shawl within less than a decade. I was woken regularly with stabbing pains in my legs and hands, a few arthritic joints that came to always hurt after a while. I can only sleep on my side but both hips and shoulders on both side hurt so much I would literally swap sides 40 times a night, if not more. I was sleeping, inc naps about 13 hrs a day and i couldn't make a fist as my arthritis meant my index finger only bent half way in and finally i had a six month pregnant pot belly, although the rest of me was slim and i couldn't shift it..........not good. After two weeks eating just meat, salt and nothing else, all of these symptoms disappeared except the pain in my shoulders which was half fixed. As i write they are now completely fine and pain free. I can't even remember when i had this much energy, when my mood was this good and i was this pain free; maybe in my 30's. Funny thing was that i loved meat at that stage, never ate vegies or salad if i could avoid them. My ex wife used to say, "you're going to have to change your diet, it's unhealthy and you're starting to smell like meat. I was honestly shocked how quickly things healed and repaired eating carnivore; I have a ne lease on life. It was the "Petersen's family story that convinced me to give it a go.
Have you tested for Lyme disease? Your pre-carni symptoms sound like Lyme. I’ve heard stories about how carnivore does wonders for lyme.
I'm 62 and you just described what I go through, I'm going to go carnivore now, keto helped but its like I've hit a wall, thanks for sharing.
I have great friend who put his Lyme in remission (so bad he couldn’t walk) with keto then went full carni and is truly living his best life. I think you’re right about the Lyme
@@littlebirdjulythat sounds like me rn just started eating steak today after 6 months of fruits nd veggies fasting makes me feel super weak hopefully the carnivore diet works
Was recently diagnosed with fybromialgia and lived with it my whole life. It got really bad lately. Brain fog, insomnia, muscle and joints pain, feeling too tired all the time. I will start the carnivore diet soon to see if my health improves. Thank you for sharing your story, it gives me hope.
I"m growing young again. I"m 80 yrs young Thank you Anthony
3.5 months into my carnivore diet journey after being totally disabled by long covid, I started this year needing a cane to walk around my apartment and now I'm back in the gym and working again
I started this 8 days ago and have lost 12 pounds. I have MS and usually start my day by taking a handful of pills to even be able to get out of bed. By Wed (I started on Sunday) I reached for the pills and realized I was already sitting up and not in any pain. I'm an RN and this is opposite of everything I was taught. I was drinking sodas and eating whatever the f I wanted bc everything I had tried before had not worked, so I figured this was just how my life would be. I started this bc I was angry. I couldn't fit in anything I have and so I decided I was taking control. This has been the easiest plan for me to stick to. I've had no withdrawal symptoms and I'm able to wear clothes that were too tight just over a week ago. I've binged several videos of yours and Dr. Berry's and it infuriates me at what I've been taught in my career over the past 2 decades.
I have had MS for almost 30 years. How are you doing 3 months in?
@@MrFreeride1113hope to hear back too
I have noticed the numbers of nurses who seem to suffer from so many health issues. I hope that your health issues will improve over the shot term and are cured over the long. God bless and keep you.
@@MrFreeride1113 I've also have M.S. to for over 35 years...
I also have MS I would love to know how you are doing!
I was keto for 4 years (meat/salad/few nuts and cheese) then hit plateau… My son and I did a carnivore challenge for 30 days. I had a couple slip ups but I lost 10 lbs in a month. What happened after was the big thing…. My whole body composition changed. My clothes were falling off-I think Carnivore reset my gut and now I’m at my college weight/size. Skin good. No acne (yes, acne happens at 54!). Only get a pimple after I trip up on rice, French fries/pizza- I’m not perfect! But only rarely does that happen. No sweat-jump back on the horse! I’m still 95% better than before. No arthritis, back pain, aching feet!!! And all my lab numbers are good! We got this!
Awesome!
That's fantastic! Im so glad to hear that!
Fantastic
Thank you!👍
NOOOOO!!!!!!
Boy your not kidding about feeling bad for days when you eat off this diet. I started carnivore and it's helped my migraines but slipped up with potatoe chips and really got slammed with a 3 day debilitating migraine....whew!
I’m totally depressed about my weight and health right now. I’m isolating and just staying away from the world which is a result of how I feel about being overweight. I’m here to learn more about this diet and have decided that I will try it based on all the info online. Please pray for me, I need a drastic change or I fear I’m going to die😢😔. This video was so helpful. If anyone has any advice on other experts to watch or follow I would sincerely appreciate that very much. Thank you🙏🏼
I’m starting today, my weight and health are impacting myself and my kids now. I wish you all the best and pray for your health and recovery 🙏🏻
Eat good meat. Treat yourself to a good ribeye. Learn how to cook meat properly if you don't know how (plenty of fantastic and easy to learn videos out there). Stay hydrated. Do not neglect to get electrolytes; you can end up with painful cramps if you don't. Magnesium (look up Keto Chow drops or Calm magnesium powder) is very helpful.

Always happy to read stories like this. Proof that no matter our age, we can dramatically improve our health.
Tip; words matter, those aren't meds/medications. Medications heal, not cover up or cause other things. Call them by their proper name; DRUGS.
@@rockymntdan1 med's don't heal only God does that! But I agree about drug's which makes the doctors drug pushers!
It's good in comparison to the dog shit average American diet. But it itself it still very unhealthy.
I'm 69 year old Diabetic. A couple years ago I tried carnivore and lost 35 lbs. I went off my insulin shots and felt great. I went back to eating carbs out of weakness for sugar. Big mistake! I started the carnivore diet again August 1, 2023. I've lost 15 lbs and feel great! My blood sugars were 150 to 250. My blood sugars run 72 to 94 now. I'm a total convert to carnivore now and I will not go back to my old habits. I love your videos! You provide information as well as gentle support because you know we all are weak at times. Keep up your great works! Much love from Minnesota!
Are you type 1 or type 2? I'm type 1 and have to eat some carbs if I go hypoglycemic.
I'm type 1. I'm not carnivore yet but I am considering it. Does anyone have more info on type1 with the diet.
Tomorrow will be my first day.
Yesterday was mine. We got this!
Mine too.
update ?
Tomorrow 5/12/2024 will be my first day, I'm excited to try it!
Hows it going?
I just learned of this diet a few days ago. I look around and found your CZcams site. As I was watching your video I recalled a tv show about a survival contest in Canada. It was who could survive the longest in the wild. The guy that won had killed a huge moose. Every week or so people with doctors would check on him. They would weigh him. He said something I haven’t forgotten. He said. I don’t know why I’m losing so much weight? I have 250 pounds of meat.
You didn’t give the reason for his weight loss, so I’m guessing it was due to moose being very low in fat.
@@AlastrionaS He had stored the fat in the same place he had the meat. He heard something late at night outside. He found a badger eating his storage of fat. He had been filming but you could only hear him fighting with something. Once he was back on camera he said it was a badger and he could not believe he took him on with out a gun. But he said he killed it ! Knife I think. He was an American guy that was married to a native American in Alaska. And over the years learn how to survive from her and her family. He said I want to make them proud of me.
no, quite the contrary
05:46 "If you need a calculator to figure out what to eat, you're eating the wrong thing."
AWESOME! YES! Thank you! Calm and helpful advice. 👍🏻
Epic!
I really appreciate the tone of this video. It feels like you’re a good friend who really cares about me. The first two minutes I seriously almost cried because nobody talks to me about my diet like this.
It’s sad that we’ve had to go find our own answers to persistent health issues without a trusted physician by our side. On the other hand, how fortunate that we live in this age where the calm, friendly chat can come to us all the way from Australia.
😂
Thank you very much! I'm so glad to hear that it was helpful for you, and I'm sorry that no one speaks to you like that about these sorts of things. It's really important for all of our health, so hopefully in the future this will be the norm for doctors and healthcare providers.
@@anthonychaffeemd 1. Thanks. 2. Poked around your channel didnt see what supplements needed. Everyone says B? Or that’s only if no liver? And minerals?
@@ibperson7765 I'm still learning, but from all of Dr. Chaffee's videos and others I've watched, what I gather is the only supplements really needed is Vitamin D if you don't get enough sunlight and if your sick or feel you need some extra bolstering add Zinc, small amount of Vitamin C and Magnesium (Chloride seems to be best absorbed). Meat, and especially beef, carries all of the nutrients that we need and in our most bioavailable form. No liver needed, it is optional in small quantities if you want it. I hope this is helpful until you hear from him.
One day, some guy is gonna see me eating a whole rotisserie chicken

Give us an update, I'll be trying as well. I'm transitioning my diet because I don't want to throw away all the food I bought. I don't have Crohn's disease yet but my dad does. I had blood in my bowel lately and it made me think that I have to fix it before it's too late.
Good luck! I am at day 7. Hoping to get better regarding ADD, chronic fatigue and hashimoto. I am quite convinced and hope to see good first progress in three months.

I was fairly healthy with no real issues. I took the stupid vaccine and 3 months later have arthritis all over my body. I’ve been doing the carnivore diet for four months, I lost 20lbs, and I’m starting to see an improvement in my joints.
Keep at it James I’m sure eventually you will overcome any damage done 👍 Hey we only try to do what’s best for our families and ourselves, and in a world where we’re constantly lied too,it makes it hard to always make the right decision
The same thing happened to me, about 4-6 weeks after my vaccination I developed what I thought was tennis elbow. 1.5 years later Drs are telling me I have RA. My right ankle and right elbow are really bad and all of my joints, tendons, and most of my muscles don't feel right. I'm tight and sore all of the time. It's ruining my life. I've been thinking about trying carnivore for months now, I'm desperate for something to work. I'm glad you're doing better man. Hope to be right behind you soon 🤘🏼
This happened to me as well. My joints and muscle hurt and ache for months now. It is ruining my life as well. I am usually a highly active go getter….now I struggle to do anything….so so upsetting and frustrating. I have always worked out with weights etc….no I am focusing on stretching and such…trying to figure out how to get this back to normal. I started back on carnivore 3 days ago. I know it really helped me when I did it for a year before.
That's good! I'm glad to hear that
I had no side effects whatsoever from the vaccine. Nothing.
Im 29 years old. All my life (save college) i have sturggled with my weight. I am currently tipping the scales at 300 pounds. I feel awful every day. I cant get to the gym because of my exhaustive and demading work schedule of 12-14 hours a day. I had heard about this diet several years ago and didnt think much of it. About 6-8 months ago my older brother started having heart problems. Long story short he had to chage up his diet. He went carnivore. Had i not seen him in person, i never would have believed his reults. 60 POUNDS IN THE FIRST 3 MONTHS, and that was with no gym. Now, he is down around 100 pounds and just now starting back in the gym. This has inspired me to start the carnivore diet. I'm very excited (and a little nervous) to do this. But I'm tired of living like i am and honestly looking like i am. Being too embarrassed to go out and do stuff because of my weight.. not going on dates.. I'm just sick of it. So i have committed to the carnivore diet and my next round to the grocery store (in a few days) I'll be starting up on this. The lowest I've been since college was 229 and that was with hours upon hours of exercise. My goal is 100 pounds. I have doubts but I'm going to give it all i have. Mind over matter. Thank you for sharing this. If anyone has any tips, resources, etc., it would be appreciated and i am all ears. This is the first diet i have actually been excited about going on! However, i want to see this more as a lifestyle change rather than "diet." God bless!
How's it been for you?
@@vincentalakija5515 I'm on day 76 and down 35 pounds. Feeling great!

Both of us 215 each, we’re starting Carnivore in 2 days! ❤ we appreciate you and all your time and energy
how's it going
I was vegan for 5 years, 6 months I only ate fruits, to be honest I got mental! Really thinking about trying it out!
@@mimi393me too. I was vegan for about a year and then vegetarian for 5. I'm considering carnivore.
It happened to me. After keto/carnivore for three years, I ate a piece of cake at my aunt’s 90th birthday party. It totally messed me up. It took three weeks to get past the cravings and intense hunger. Big regrets. For me, lapses are a no-go.
That must have been awful!
Similar experience. I had finished a month of whole 30, felt and looked great. Went to a party, had a drink, a cookie, had fried chicken later..the next day my face was almost swollen shut.
I get it. I am totally addicted to sugar. Cereal is evil.
Exactly, and for me like heroine for others, a little every now and then, simply is NOT an option.
🇦🇺
Same story. And don't get seduced by people that say: "a little bit won't change anything". That's a big lie.
3 months ago my BP was consistently in the high 150's and 160's over 90's. I couldn't go up 2 flights of stairs without feeling like I was completely out of breath. I started a strict carnivore diet 102 days ago, and now I'm consistently in the 117/77 - 120/80 range. I can run up 6 flights of stairs now without being winded, and I don't exercise regularly other than walking. I'm no longer prediabetic, I'm down 4 pants sizes, and lost a ton of weight while I'm never even hungry. I eat mostly beef, butter, and eggs, with the occasional pork rind, home made parm crisp, or bacon snack. I no longer have joint pains in my shoulder, I no longer snore, I no longer have that 2PM crash/nap, and my mental capacity is as sharp as it's ever going to get.
Lmfao at your chuckinMcnugget name
What is a "parm crisp"
Edit: I looked up parm crisps, looks awesome!
Are pork rinds healthy to eat as a snack on carnivore?
Hi there, please give us an update of your journey, thanks!
@@josephineb1501 Still going strong. I'm at day 243 now. I had to buy new clothing because I've lost about 6-8 inches off my waist. Went from size 44 to 36 jeans. I have no intention of stopping even after the 1 year mark in May. The last time I checked my BP it was 111/70, and that's the lowest I've seen it.
What a wonderful delivery you have! Over 40 years an RN. How I need this info and you’ve made it so simple. Thank you.
What I love about carnivore is how conducive it is to my recovery. I beat alcohol cravings by eating whenever I want.
Interesting.I have been suspicious of addiction/food connections. As a child I put table sugar in my milk, orange juice, frosted flakes. I despised vegetables in their purest forms (texture, bitterness) and ate mostly meat and sweets. Very lean most of my life despite all that sugar. There has to be a link.
I have HBP for over 10yrs. Recently got diagnosed with cholesterol on statins. All my hopes came crushing as I knew, as a Registered Nurse, this means one step closer to metabolic syndrome which we all know, this is a combination of heart attack in a bowl. I started going to the gym, and incorporating lots of veggies, low salt and so on. For about a month, no weight loss buy started feeling good though. My new found friend introduced me to canivore diet two weeks ago which completely blew my mind. It involves everything I ve been advised not to eat. I started watching Dr. Ken Berry, 5 minutes Body and other canivores
We don't eat egg yokes in my household cos our Dr says it's full of cholesterol. We limit our salts intake because of blood pressure. Too much meat, was told not good for your kidneys. So canivore diet was just the last thing I needed. However, I was willing to try anything cos at this point, I felt like I got nothing to loose. I quickly dived into it without any hesitations. 3 weeks now and I feel amazing. Lots of things have began to change in my life that I never anticipated. Thank you all.
The old science had it backwards!
CHOLESTEROL IS NEEDED FOR BRAIN FUNCTION. STOP STATINS.
LOW CHOLESTEROL CAUSES ALZHEIMER.
Statins are bad, saturated fat good. Mainstream seems to not concerned for maximum health. Thankfully the message is getting out.
One great thing about carnivore is less waste!!! I was constantly buying spring mix and vet and tossing it in my compost bin because I just never wanted to eat it and it went bad.
I've never thrown away meat!! Just found you! Love your podcasts! Thanks for being there to teach us the good life! Health!!
So true!! I always want to have my veggies for the fiber, but end of not eating them
Yep our refrigerator is not packed to the rafters as before. Shopping bags lighter too!
I am so cross with myself ,today after being so strict carnivore ,l ate 2 choc bars , bread , and then my husband got a chinese take away this evening ! I could kick myself , so sweet ugh 😮 tomorrow is a new day , tough x lm asking god for help 😅
Get back on the wagon. Don't beat yourself for being human.
I'm just now getting started. I pray it works for me also. I have joint pain everywhere. my bones pop all the time. tired, brain fog , depression, anxiety. I've slowly stopped the soda. once in awhile i treat myself. But I will definitely try this diet. I'm tired of all my ailments.
4 years ago I went carnivore, lost weight, got strong, came off meds, felt the best I have ever felt in my life! Unfortunately “certain events” pushed me off course and I regret it so bad cos I lost all my gains. Now, in my sixties and desperately trying to get back on track and you are my inspiration Dr Chaffee❤ Carnivore is the appropriate human diet in my opinion, everything else makes me fat and sick.
ScepticalWoman,
My situation is parallel.
God bless you, and I really hope you achieve optimum health.
LIAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes!!! One tasted always takes me on a binge….. bad food is a drug!!!!!
If you want to get on track and be healthy?
Eat plants. Not meat.
Not milk !
I have been extremely healthy for almost 45 years on a plant based diet.
No good ever came out of eating animal protein!

What in the world??? I thought I was listening a resident or someone who JUST became a doctor. Wow. I will finish it this time. I got on Carnivore Fall of 2021 but got off and went back to emotional eating during my Mom's hospitalization and subsequent passing May 2022. I just started back on carnivore yesterday. I cleaned all the cabinets out and refrigerator. I am not playing games.

Carnivore will kill you.

I love your non complicated way of approaching this diet. So refreshing.
Thanks for this video! I needed this!
Thanks, Dr Chaffee. Perfect summary for those who are new to carnivore or are thinking about trying it. I’ve been watching Shawn for years but I never tried carnivore until I discovered one of your interviews, a long one, which is the format I prefer. Don’t underestimate the impact you are having.
Thank you very much, I really appreciate that!

@@anthonychaffeemd day 3 carnivore and I have a headache this morning, I rarely get headaches, what could it be?
@@romanbarr generally withdrawals like from caffeine or sugar
I've been carnivore since the New Year. What it has done for me is: losing 20+ lbs so far, endless energy, my face looks younger, no joint pain, body recomposition (and I really don't work out) and changing my relationship with food. I'm 48.
Previously I was Paleo then Keto then Ketovore. The problem I had was binge eating, it never stopped until I went carnivore. I was also a beer drinker but I quit last July, it was when I quit drinking that I started with the bingeing. Carnivore has helped me to relearn my hunger signals. Now I occasionally will try something like chocolate (a very tiny piece) or a vegetable and truly taste it and what I find is I don't like it as much as I used to because I like the way I feel so much better and I don't want to lose that. I'd like to try alcohol again now that I feel I can moderate but I know the issue there is losing inhibitions and possibly eating crappy foods with it so I'm not sure I'm ready to go that route. The one thing I won't give up is my morning coffee (with cream). I DID give it up and although I functioned fine without it I really missed the routine of it and it didn't seem to bother me when I reintroduced it. One thing about giving up foods and then re-trying them again is you learn if you have sensitivity to them, I always thought I had a sensitivity to onion and now it's obvious that I do.
Thank you for a great introduction to Carnivore 👍
Can you tell me why Dr Chafee is against coffee, tea, honey, and alcohol? Thanks if you know why.

Hi from Canada. I am 61 and decided to do Carnivore. I hope it helps with my Hypothyroidism. I was craving Ribeye and just finished one. I cooked it in butter with S & P. OMG it was so good. I polished off the whole thing. I started off with IF and cut out bread all Wheat Products. Got rid of all the junk and in a month I have lost 12lbs. Today, I start Carnivore, thanks to You and Dr KenDBerry for all the information.... meat and water.
How’s it going so far?
Any updates? How’s it going?
I also want to know!
I feel way better mentally and digestion-wise on beef only than when I was following Saladino's advice and having multiple oranges,bananas, pomegranates etc everyday.
He used to be pure carnivore too, but somewhere along the way changed things. All that fruit you mention is a lot of sugar.
Saladino changed his mind due to his thyroid and testosterone starting to suffer, so he said. Instead of doing what many carnivores think would be common sense and eating more protein to kickstart gluconeogenesis (something he used to talk about frequently), he decided to add in carbs. Not really sure why he didn’t just make that simple change and eat more protein. He’s starting to look a little withered now that he’s ingesting so much sugar.
@@Betweentheraindrops8 hes got a crazy look in his eyes too lol
When a carnivorien start eating fruits and honey he is not carnivorien any more .... step by step he will go back to eating wheat and complex carbs... the same cycle will be repeated
I'm sure Saladino crashed on carnivore and felt he had to add carbs back in because he ate too much organ meat. But he can't admit that, can he, with his million dollar organ supplements company.
Thank you Dr. Chaffee, very helpful info and your voice is very soothing.
This video, is insanely helpful. Insanely insightful. This is the most helpful video probably on the entire internet on this topic for a beginner carnivore. Thank you.
I’ve been carnivore since feb 1st! It’s the simplest lifestyle no more weighing and counting calories,just eat meat and fat ,no longer obsessed with the scale
I’ve never felt better
I'm only 3 weeks in so this video was VERY important for me. A couple of times I was hungry late at night but wouldn't eat. Also, I'm sure I'm having too much fat. Got it! One of the most important things you said was to stop eating when it doesn't taste good anymore. Brilliant! You are greatly appreciated.!
Exactly what I was looking for, thank you so much! God bless!
What you said was such a great clue for me on learning when to stop eating. “Stop eating when it stops tasting good”
Stop eating when it stops tasting good? Stop eating when you are satisfied.
This stool advice is brilliant. I always thought I had a sensitivity to meat because of immediate and explosive diarrhea after eating a certain amount - but once I trusted my body didn’t need anymore for that day, even if my macros were low, I saw a huge improvement all the way around with mentality, health and how I felt and slept. It is amazing how little (food) you need when eating carnivore/ketovore. It can actually be alarming b/c we are so used to eating massive amounts and the “you need this amount of calories for basal metabolic rate.” advice that has been drilled in for decades. (I’m a nutritionist and Kinesiologist). Thanks for always keeping it simple.
Thank you, I'm glad it was helpful! And that's very flattering coming from someone of your background. And yes, there is so much information being pushed out there for decades that doesn't really hold up in real world situations
If you wanna see something that will make you laugh your a** off and it's the ultimate definition of explosive diarrhea look up the diarrhea scene from the movie Van Wilder
As a nutritionist will we get all essential vitamins and minerals that our bodies need only eating meat and eggs?

I can relate. My 2nd day on carnivore, and while staying with it strictly, I do get the urge to eat something carb especially bread, but I'm holding strong. I'm giving myself 3 months to reset myself, and experience all the wonderful benefits I see many others talking about. I'm overweight about 286 pounds, recently was diagnosed with HBP, so I'm hoping I can lose weight and address my HBP problem..... Wish me luck.

@@anthonychaffeemd hey doc don't know if you'll see this comment it being 3 months after the video I don't expect you to but, I did alright on carnivore for a bit but I always hit this wall this one day where I just suddenly feel like absolute trash
It usually kicks in before the first week is over sometimes the day after day seven.
Usually in that time frame. And it's made me feel shitty enough that it derailed me multiple times and I'm trying to figure out what I am doing wrong here.
@@thedoomslayer5863 had hard to say. Were you 100% pure meat and water? No coffee, fruit, sweeteners, etc? Were you getting enough fat? These are common ones to work through first.
@@anthonychaffeemdfirst of all I want to say thanks a million for replying to me, I really didn't think you would! Also bear with me this comment may be a little long but here's my experience on carnivore
I was eating SAD then went to carnivore strict. Meat, salt, water. I always hated eating fat as it's soft chewyness disgusted me for some reason but I forced myself to eat the fat that came with my sirloin.
I had really really bad diarrhea and very loose stools to the point I'd have to run to the bathrooms be it at home or work when I felt it was creeping on me
I think I passed that phase because I just stopped going to the bathroom every day. Just when I thought I was in the clear I woke up one day with not much appetite and I felt weak, drained, lethargic and somewhat nauseous. I held in and tried to do some research on my own, found I believe it was saladino mentioning how he encourages us to eat fruit on carnivore
And between conflicting information and my terrible state I caved and ate fruits, lots of them. I began to feel better the day after like I was suddenly normal again.
I don't know if this is what you and doctor berry spoke about as "carb withdrawal" but I want to make carnivore work but I fear that point where I just feel so utterly terrible will happen again and threaten to de rail me just like last time
@@thedoomslayer5863 sorry to hear that you had such a bad experience like that. Yes you can definitely get car with through especially sugar withdraw but normally when you get diarrhoea there are three main causes: you're still drinking coffee, you're still using artificial sweeteners, or you're eating a lot more staff in your body can absorb. You will be much more sensitive to the diary effects of coffee and artificial sweeteners when you go carnivore, so there was the first thing is to eliminate out and go pure meat and water. If you have done that already then it's more likely to be that you're eating a lot more fat in your body can absorb and you can pull back on that and just eat less fat. I would definitely recommend going again though and doing things on a very pure meat and water basis and getting through the first two weeks because those or where you'll be seeing the carb and addiction withdrawal rules and afterwards you will hit the sweet spot where your body will just start humming. Good luck with it!
So simple and appreciate your calm delivery.
Day 3 of the Carnivore diet and love your keep it simple video...
I appreciate your sharing the basics.
Just started my Carnivore journey after an extended water fast. Watched this video after cooking 1/2 pound grass fed beef,salt and 4 organic eggs!!! Let’s gooo!!👍💯❤️💪
Awesome! Well done Matt!
I like this guy’s approach. I have a metastatic tumour which I refused treatment for since the prognosis was poor with treatment. I was told 6 months without treatment. I’ve spent the last 2 1/2 years being on a very strict vegetarian diet but the tumour is still slowly growing and I have skin inflammations so now I’m going to switch to a carnivore diet. What I have found is that sometimes, for my mental health, I need to allow myself to be flexible in my diet and I appreciate that Dr. Chaffee addresses this.
People are having great success with Fasting and Carnivore for Cancers. Keep learning, keep eating meat and good luck

@biddydibdab9180 I had cancer twice. Cervical caught early at age 20. Thyroid, ignored & caught late, resulted in total thyroidectomy partial parathyroidectomy, removal of salivary glands, and lymph nodes. I think the real culprits were a bad medical system with a hierarchy that cares more about $ than they do about people. I feel that reversal of cancer is possible when the body gets what it needs. I'd do anything to get my thyroid back...even taking the cancer back with it! I believe that my cancer was caused from low iodine and selenium intake. I'm trying to get off all [p]harma drugs after my doctor's keep playing keep away with my thyroid med throwing my body through all kinds of ups and downs. I'm now taking animal thyroid, it hasn't been easy yet, but I hope that one day it will be. I'm to the point now that I think I'd rather die than give into doctor demands all the time. If I don't test on their schedule or whatever it is that they want me to do at the time, they will go no contact and refuse to refill my thyroid meds. I'm currently trying to find the right balance of supplementation for myself. But it turns out that iodine and selenium deficiency is common in the west especially, flies under the radar because they aren't tested for, and their deficiency is related to a whole range of dis-ease (fatigue, hair loss, all kinds of things - mental health issues too- from depression to psychosis).
I feel that these vitamin & mineral deficiencies are the things we all should start paying attention to instead of the stuff that doctors/farma push to line their greedy pockets!
@@lora97006 I’m so sorry for the torture you’ve endured. The (non)action of your doctors is unconscionable! To refuse to refill your medications after they’ve made them necessary is diabolical. I have horses and supplementing with iodized salt AND selenium is essential (and addressed by feed stores) yet people are deficient and doctors don’t have a clue. Do your research and I hope you are able to heal your own body.
Shared this video with the people closest to me! We love it !
These videos are GOLDEN!! thanks doc
I wasn't sure about all this until I listen to you. Speak on another podcast. Best decision I've ever made for my health. Thank you for telling it like it is. I'm currently trying to get my entire family and everyone I know on board. I get disgusted when I open up the refrigerator or the pantry. And I have four daughters that I feel like I am poisoning every day with the food they eat and drink. I'm on a mission now.
🇺🇸💪🏻👊🏻🤙🏼
I love how you broke that down. Very basic, yet very specific. Thank you.
My dear Dr is supportive of my carnivore diet. To prevent going on insulin I started out on carnivore Nov 27, 2023, when blood glucose was in the high 18's. As we have no fridge, I had to act decisively and cut on everything except red meat, some chicken, and occasionally also fish. No alcohol as I am on anticoagulants, then also no teas, coffees, neither juices nor sodas. Just good old tap water, which is of very high quality where I live.
Sugar now averages 5.5, twice 4.2, once 3.6 - the latter a bit of a crisis. After two months, intent upon staying on the healthy, tasty side of food: carnivore. I only eat when hungry or when blood glucose drops too fast. No browsing nor snacking. It's not easy if you come from austerity in the first place.
NGL. This dude absolutely knows what he's talking about. Hell yeah.
Thank you for giving me the resources to build on for changing my life. Also thanks to Dr. Berry and Dr. Baker. I suffered from IBS ALL MY LIFE. GONE. Before I went carnivore, I was intermittent fasting with good results, but not consistent. I was only pressing pause on the poisons I was eating. After three days carnivore everything changed. Now six months in chronic inflammation in hips gone. I was scheduled to have surgery on a torn meniscus, and labrum in hip. I am running without pain or popping, and squatting again. Dropped 17 pounds in around 3 weeks. I am 44 and weight lifted all my life and now I feel as good as I did in high school. I used to try to balance everything protein/carbs, fruit, constant inflammation, IBS, gastric dumping. Gone. I know it sounds to good to be true, but it’s worked for me. You and the other Dr.’s I mentioned are now benchmarks in a turning point in my life. Thousands of dollars spent in the ER, Lower GI’s, medications , high fiber diets, Dr. Consultations, and the answer was found here. I am grateful for your time spent going against the status quo, never stop.
You are very welcome, I'm really glad that my videos have helped you. And I'm sorry that you had to suffer with that your whole life, but I'm really glad that you're able to turn a new page on a pain-free life and really experience good health. Yeah Bell issues like IBS and even IBD simply melt away on a carnivore diet. People don't realize that it's the plants that are causing these problems in the first place, not that there's something wrong with them themselves. I'm glad that you were able to discover this yourself and be open-minded enough to give it a try! Keep it up, it only gets better from here.
I'm worried about eating meat now because they are saying animals are being injected with mrna!!!!and they don't even have to label it!?
@@wefsux I source all the beef I eat from a local farmer. I started with half a cow, and then to a whole. Im starting on the 3rd cow in the past 365. Try also farmers markets. Still going strong, my weight is always stable. Inflammation is still down 95% of what it was. The only time inflammations kick up is from alcohol consumption which is almost 0 or social gatherings where I graze the food I don’t eat on a regular basis.
I went keto 4 years ago. Dramatic weight loss and vastly improved bloods.
Then I fell off the wagon.
Now I've just started carnivore and even after 3 days I feel better. Satiated, less inflammation, sleeping at night but not after meals.
I've learnt my lesson.
Howis your blood work now? I have heard of others who have bad cholesterol levels and some heart attacks. Where do you get your fiber from. do you take vitamins to get what you don't get from meat diet.
Love this - simple, non patronising or condescending- you know how to talk to people 😊 - thank you.
excellent info mate short and sweet god bless you and everyone around ya
Nice timing, I've been transitioning into carnivore for the last 7-10 days. I feel good, calmer, less hungry, lost 4 lbs.
That's great! You'll keep feeling better and better as you go
I've been keto for 6 yrs. Felt a lot better. Wt loss stalled at 40 lbs. Want another 40 off. Now carnivore feeling wonderful and down 10 more lbs. Plants poison me for me sure
5 days in!!!!!! We got this!!! Let’s go!!!!!
@@suzikirby1973 Wheat is the killer for sure. Try NOT to give in to any grains at all. So not worth it. My SIL migraine sufferer has been pain free for 4 months on Carnivore and just went on vaca and gave in to sandwiches! That's all! She's back in bed this week. She agrees....never again! Check out Road to Carnivore episode #18 The evils of wheat, and other grains/seed oils!
@@commonsense246 yes any gluten and I get an a psoriasis flare on elbows. Night shades cause immediate arthritis pain. And something ??? Brings back nerve pain legs no and BB feet. No more plant poison for me.
I'm late to the party but just said a prayer for my strength and ability to enroll my husband and children. Amazing video 🙌 My husband is not one to jump on board for any kind of change in diet, but if my results are good enough, I believe that might be all that is needed. Our son is also autistic. In my bones I just know he'll improve without the carb load everyday. He is low spectrum, so it's really a focus issue (and he's extremely sensitive). Thank you so much for this video and the others. I don't think finding this was an accident. ✨️
I'm very glad you liked it! I definitely think it would help your son as well. Ketogenic diets have been used for years to help treat autism. Watch my interview with Professor Chris Palmer from Harvard, we talk directly about autism on that one.

Not sure if you looked into zeolite for your son. To remove heavy metals. Really good for autism
That sounds amazing! I'm going to go for it
Very helpful! Thank you, Anthony!
I'm six days into carnivore. I'm here because I've dealt with fatty liver, diabetes and now diverticulitis. I know this is my answer. My diabetes and fatty liver are reversed. But I'm still dealing with my torn up gut. I'm so addicted to carbs that I'm depressed. I even had a panic attack yesterday.
Regardless of that I'm here for the long haul. I'm glad i found this channel 🙏
You’re worth it. Keep going
@@BelCantoLari thank you! I feel great! Not cheating no anxiety!! 17 days in!!🙏
@@11nica5 thank you!🙏 I feel great and 17 days in!!
I just started a week ago and I was super addicted to carbs and dt mt dew. I have been depressed it's so crazy. I decided to take a moment to grieve losing those things and sorted it out. And I'm happy I'm on my way to health. Despite my Rheumatologist saying OH NO upu camt do that, it's not healthy! As he offered me nothing but MORE drugs to help. I'm looking forward to my future😊
how is it going? I also have medical issues@@stephaniecash5573
The biggest thing I realized when I broke my sugar/carb addition is that I was eating because I was stressed or anxious and turned to sugary coffees, snacks etc when I did not need the food.
Going carnivore I’m so much more in touch with my body and hunger cues.
My body is in better shape with less workouts.
Carnivore truly is the diet of the future for people who want to be in their prime for life.
Bring on the 🥩
It is healthy for seniors? I'm not convinced one gets enough nutrition from just beef and water. What has been your personal experience? Thank you. I'm new here.
Add pineapples, mangoes, Kiefer, eggs, cheese and fermented foods
For someone who is so jacked, you have the most calming voice. Thank you. Excited to get in to this lifestyle.
Thanks for all the information!
