  • The Villages is a fun place but keeping that fun under control from a health perspective can be difficult so I decided to give the Carnivore Diet lifestyle an experimental try with the help of Dr. Robert Cywes, Dr. Ken Berry, and Nutritionist Judy Cho. Just another journey here in The Villages. I lost over 25 lbs in the first 30 days and took some blood tests to see how it checked out. Subscribe for new videos: bit.ly/3aToJ3H

It took me nearly a year to eliminate even sugar substitutes, but now I'm completely off all of them & feeling superb! I'm no longer tempted with beer & and cocktails, in fact, much less than the cinnamon rolls my husband makes. LOL. (The wonderful SMELL!!! EEEK!)

    I went Carnivore 2/5/2022 with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and fatty liver disease. I reversed my T2D in two months and fatty liver disease in four. I also lost 75lbs in eight months. A1C went from 8.2 to 5.6 in four months too! Carnivore saved my life for sure. I have been following Dr. Ken Berry and Dr. Cywes for the last year and a half. I just moved here (Lake Denham) last month and want to help others heal with meat. Great video Rusty!😮

    I’ve lived in The Villages for about 15 years. I was Keto for most of that time, and now I’m Ketovore, almost carnivore. Unlike you, I’m not tempted to go off plan, even at restaurants or whatever. I carry my own drink cup, or drink coffee instead of alcohol. It’s simply just a way of life now. Maybe we need a Carnivore Club!!

    I was beyond thrilled to see the video you released today about the Carnivore Diet. I recently bought a home in The Villages and will be moving there next week. It’s nice to know that there’s at least one other person in my new hometown who has experienced first hand the miraculous health benefits that result from eating a meat based diet.
    1n 2012, we accidentally reversed my 91-year-old mother’s Type 2 Diabetes without even knowing it was possible. In fact, we did such a good job that we almost killed her. We didn’t know that a simple change to a meat based diet would cause her blood sugar levels and blood pressure to normalize to the point where she no longer needed any diabetes medications or blood pressure medications. By continuing to give her those medications, her blood sugar and blood pressure dropped to dangerously low levels and she ended up in the hospital. Not only did her A1C score drop from 10 to 5.7 through diet alone, so many of her other health conditions disappeared, as well, such as psoriasis, swollen ankles and feet, sores on shins, protruding belly, etc…
    I’m planning to try the Carnivore 30-Day Challenge myself after I move to The Villages. I’m hoping it will be a little easier for me than it was for you since I don’t know anyone there, yet. Are you aware of any Carnivore support groups being formed there, yet?
    I’m looking forward to hearing about your experience with Dr. Cywes. I’m aware of at least two other physicians practicing in Florida who are huge proponents of prescribing CGMs to patients before they become diabetics: Dr. Annette Bosworth, aka “Dr. Boz” (Tampa) and Dr. Paul Kolodzik (licensed to do telemedicine in Florida). They both post videos on CZcams.
    It’s amazing how many books have been published about the Carnivore Diet since we first learned about it in 2012. Please let me know if you are aware of any other books not included in the list below:
    1) Dr. Philip Ovadia (cardiac surgeon) author of the book "Stay Off My Operating Table."
    2) Dr. Shawn Baker (orthopedic surgeon) author of the book "The Carnivore Diet."
    3) Dr. Anthony Chaffee (neurosurgeon) "PlantFreeMD" author of the book "Why We are Carnivores ... and How Plants Try to Poison You." (18 year carnivore)
    4) Dr. Georgia Edes (psychiatrist) author of the book "Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind: A powerful Plan to Improve Mood, Overcome Anxiety and Protect memory for a Lifetime of Optimal Mental Health."

    I am no longer on an antidepressant, I have had to cut my type 2 diabetes in half. Still need the BP medicine. I was 247 at 5’9” . Today I bc am 226. So I still have a way to go. From previous experience, I will probably see rapid improvement in blood pressure once I get to 190 lbs. it’s no longer a matter of “if” but “when.” Again, thank you for making this video. It is good stuff.

    Hi Rusty, CZcams suggested your video so I gave it a listen. My husband and I are both 60 and we live in AZ. My husband started doing carnivore about 7 weeks ago. He also is having his bloodwork tested around Thanksgiving. He finds this way of eating effortless, his weight and blood sugar are down. I think he has a level of skepticism about the long term effects but time will tell! For now he feels great and his morning blood sugar is low! Amazing! He still marvels at the simplicity of this way of eating and he isn't hungry all the time. Best wishes on your journey.

    The only issue I had was my first diverticulitis attack since going carnivore. I ate a cheese dip and pork rinds during the holidays and boy it wiped me out. I have to stick to beef, butter, eggs and bacon
    Other than that I've lost thirty pounds, no more bleeding gums, I'm not winded anymore, less anxiety, I just feel incredibly better

WHY? because through the use of those diets I overcame A LOT of health problems. It's always wonderful to hear/see other people who are actively pursuing this lifestyle and enjoying the benefits of it. At 63, i'm so thankful that I found this lifestyle. Judy Cho is awesome! Same with Dr. Ken Berry, Dr. Jason Fung, Dr. Anthony Chaffee, Dr. Cywes and SO SO many others - but Dr. Ken Berry is the main person that I credit for bringing me back to good health.

    Your videos are always so timely. I recently lost 45lbs on low carb/keto/carnivore. And ‘fell off’ recently so thank you for inspiring me to get ‘back on’. I often thought of starting a TV club for like minded people with preferred food restrictions to socialize and share info. It’s hard to socialize with others that just ‘don’t get it’ especially when they invite you to their homes and you find yourself accepting the ‘one cheat won’t hurt’. But it does. It is so hard to ‘get back on’ once you ‘cheated’. Especially in the beginning. I too follow Dr Berry among many, they are always inspiring. Luv Dr Eric Berg too. Good luck with your journey and thanks for sharing.

      Dana, Just get back on if you want to it's nothing more than a trip to the grocery store. Eating things that you're not supposed to and smacking seems to be a mental event not a hunger event for me. I think once you know that it's easier to fight it.

      LOL 😂, I'm 63 5'10 170. I was 205 and lost 35 and as a reward I baked brownies with icing on them. It was like doing drugs and went back up to 192. I said enough and cut out the brownies and bread and Honey Nut Cherrios this time . And I even lift weights 5 days a week in the hot Florida heat outside. But it's your diet that controls your weight more than anything else.

    Another great informational video on your personal journey as a carnivore. So many of our senior citizens are so unhealthy and spending more money on meds than they do on food every month. When they ask me how I stay stay in such good shape I always share with them my eating habits. Sad to say they believe the bad advice their PCP’s are giving them and think they will die without their meds. Makes me so sad. Keep spreading the good news about your journey to heath as I can see from the comments you are inspiring others to do their own research. Thank you Rusty!

    Hey Rusty! Welcome to the carnivore club! I joined in March 2023 due to a plethora of gastro intestinal issues. Sticking around for the carnivore glow and a return to youthful vigor. I have a way to go on that, as now that the ugly noticeable health factors are improving, my naturopathic doctor is drilling down to erradicate yeast, mold and possibly one other issue that are keeping me from really excelling. In the meantime, to be able to eat without incident, sleep well, have zero joint and bone pain and improved strength is an awesome start. This way of eating is saving my life and future.

    ago and have maintained a 25 lb. weight loss. Hubby has been able to cut his BP meds in half and I have eliminated them altogether. We have added a few things back into our diet so I would say ketovore describes us now.

Doing keto with fasting and off BP, cholesterol and refulx meds and a total life changer. I lifted weights up until 4 years ago and stopped. I added TRT 3 months ago to my lfe again and started lifting with it and I am doing amazing and have muscles again and getting more at 67 next month!!

    Thank you so much for this video! I've been carnivore for 3 months. I am currently living in The Villages too. Like you, I did a ton of research before starting and found so many resources on CZcams. I really like Dr. Anthony Chaffee and Dr. Ovadia. Dr. Ovadia is a heart/thoracic surgeon who is also all in for carnivore. Like you, I just was sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. My goal wasn't really to lose weight (although, that's a great benefit, and I have lost 16 pounds), it was just to feel better. On August 23, 2023 I had basal joint surgery on my left thumb due to severe osteoarthrosis. When I went back to the surgeon to get the stitches out, he and his staff were amazed at my recovery. I have full use of my hand at this point and the interesting thing is that you can barely see the scar.
    The strangest thing for me is when I tell people how great I feel and my energy levels are even throughout the day, they look at me like I'm out of my mind. I've had several people challenge me and I tell them that "I will stay out of your kitchen, if you stay out of mine." Do you find that too? They always ask about fruit and vegetables. Dr. Anthony Chaffee has several videos explaining how fruits and vegetables are really not that great for you.
    I apologize if this is long-winded, but I'm just so pleased that there are other people in this community that are experiencing such fantastic results!!

    Carnivore 5 months. Hardest time is when my kids come into town and trying to eat at restaurants in TV. Most of them cook with seed oils and I really don't do well with that. I will say my son and I went to Prima and I got a double portion of grouper with some shrimp on the side. I got asparagus and gave it to my son. I still drink occasional wine and beer which actually have lower carbs than you think. And I still love avocado. Otherwise no carbs for 5 months. Have not had my labs redone, But they weren't too bad to begin with. My goal which everyone needs to have if they're going to start such a drastic change is to reduce the pain in my hip and swelling in my legs. And of course lose weight. Post menopausal women have a harder time losing, but I have lost 20#. I definitely feel better.

      Karen area is no real reason that have seed of oil is because your kids come into town. At least not that I can think of haiku with the olive oil and avocado oil. Asparagus is not a bad vegetable have if you're going to have one I'm pretty sure glass of wine is OK and beer is definitely off the list I would think.

      ​@RustyNelson What I meant was most restaurants cook with seed oils. Especially canola. I can tell. A 6 oz glass of wine has 4.5 gm carbs. My IPA's have about 5-6 gm. Those days that I may have a beer or wine I consider the day "carnivorish" as Neisha Berry calls it. Try to keep carbs below 10. For me it is dairy that throws me out of ketosis. But I'm looking at the long-term and this is what works for me. Even if slow, as long as I continue to lose weight I am happy. 😊

I say I put on “the freshman 20lbs” after we lived here a year! I knew I had to change my eating. I’ve done many diets in my lifetime. This carnivore diet definitely resonated with me. It has helped me lose my freshman 20lbs and more! I’m about 90% carnivore 10% other for my week(s), in general.
    Side note-I’ve taken some of The Villages Enrichment Academy courses. One was on dishes to take to driveway parties. All but 1 was plant based and the nutritionist and her helpers were plant based diet people.
    Another class, on brain enrichment, is also teaching the Mediterranean diet is the best for your brain. A book she recommends (in general, for her brain enrichment class) says most doctors are often closed off to other ideas, if it isn’t in their field of expertise!!!
    Again, great video!!

    Rusty, my husband and I were so thrilled to see that you've adopted this way of eating. I've been Ketovore one year now and my husband has been for about 8 months.
    Also glad to hear that you found a Doctor who is on board with this way of eating. Keep learning and tweaking to what works for you and your lifestyle. 😊

      Ketovore means you eat ketogenic diet?

      When I was Type 2 diabetic and obese, my PCP warned me that keto should not be consumed long-term. After reversing my blood sugar and losing 20 pounds within a short time, she told me there was no pill or advise she could have given me to obtain those results. Now that I am carnivore 4 years later, with a 55-pound weight loss, she recommends that I continue my way of eating!

    Great to hear your story! I've been clean ingredients Keto for 5 years and transitioned to Carnivore 5 months ago. Following Dr. Ken D. Berry since June 2018. Down 150 lbs. It's a journey and a lifestyle, PHD, Proper Human Diet. Never going back to the S.A.D., Standard American Diet.

    Thanks for making this video, Rusty! I am also trying this way of eating and enjoy the mental clarity, less painful joints, and decreased bowel issues as well. It would be fabulous if a carnivore club forms at The Villages because it would give me one more reason to move there!

      Jon That would be great if people just took a second to look or even look at the videos. I think sometimes we get so wrapped up in life we forgets a look at taking care of ourselves. I know I have. Subscribe Button for new videos: bit.ly/3aToJ3H

    I'm really glad to see this. We are moving to The Villages as soon as we sell our house in Texas. I've been doing carnivore and following Dr. Berry for the past 5 months. I feel great. I just slip up and have too many drinks. I will be looking for a doctor in The Villages that is om board with the Carnivore diet. I am 73 years old.

      @RustyNelson  Před 8 měsíci

      Glad it was helpful! Strange thing is now that I started on this I have no desire for breakfast anymore. In reality if you listened to the one video one you two by Dr. Cywes he talks about how breakfast came about. Very very interesting Subscribe Button for new videos: bit.ly/3aToJ3H

    Congratulations on your weight loss Rusty! Here is another recommendation as you head down the rabbit hole of this lifestyle: Vinnie Tortorich. He is a fitness trainer, and has an AWESOME podcast, book, and several documentaries. He has interviewed tons of doctors, nutritionists and other experts (including ones you referenced). His creation is NSNG - no sugar no grains. So, a bit looser than carnivore, but everyone has to find what works best for them as an individual. Looking forward to your next video!

    First time listening to you ...happy i landed here....i keep falling off the carnivore diet,my fingers been feeling puffy in the morning and my bp has been quite unstable....hopefully will be back with a testimony.. am encouraged enough to start off again ...

    I just discovered your blog and love your style of presentation. I have been on Carnivore myself since September 27 this year. Did not reduce weight much but eliminated pains and discomfort, and gained energy and flexibility. I guess I like fats too much (butter, heavy cream, etc). Thank you for your input, will keep me going. I am going to follow you and will look forward to the next videos.

    Hi Rusty. Never thought I’d find another carnivore in The Villages. I’ve been doing BBBE since June. I love it. The fact that I don’t have cravings is a meticulous. When ever I have been on a diet before there were days that I tortured myself thinking about all the junk I loved to consume.
    A CZcams channel I can recommend is My Zero Carb Life with Kelly Hogan.
    Good luck with your journey.
