Diet is oftentimes the best medicine!
Actually raw honey is very good for you, it is not bee vomit. Just because someone says they are a doctor doesn't mean they actually are. 2 minutes in, and nope this is not working. I'll find someone who knows what they are talking about, because this man does not.
Hippocrates once said "Let food be your medicine and medicine be your food'. The Hippocratic Oath used to be the foundation of all med schooling but alas no longer.
Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.
@@EmeraldEyesEsoteric It is processed in a way that makes it seem like vomit to humans. Raw honey may be good for you, but this talk discusses healthy options without honey.
Watching your videos here on CZcams has changed my life - 42 days ago I was a 100% disabled combat veteran who lost his wife October last year…I was 193lbs at 5’8” and couldn’t do anything with my twin 6 year old boys. Most days I stayed in bed, sometimes not even able to use the bathroom by myself.
I had enough, quit taking all my medicine except for my injections every 90 days and started fasting while finding a diet with science behind it tailoring to my TBI/MS with accompanying complications.
After 4 days of fasting I got a couple of 25lbs dumbbells for upper body strength and one bigger 50lb weight for lower body strength.
I have now been doing my regular routines every day, carnivore diet and intermittent fasting for a grand total of 42 days - I cannot begin to explain what a difference it has made in our lives. Daddy is back with a vengeance with a body of a fit college kid and down to about 9% body fat…I look and FEEL absolutely amazing and everyone around me, especially my kids, are just flabbergasted and dumbstruck about my transformation.
After being alone, depressed and cooped up in my bedroom for an entire year…I am now participating in my kids soccer, gymnastics and flag football…no pain, no ataxia and no worries!!!
TRY THIS PLEASE PEOPLE, YOU WON’T BE DISAPPOINTED.
Wow, this is an absolutely beautiful story. I'm surprised no one else commented! I'm so happy for you and for your boys. You have changed the course of their lives, and yours, forever! How are you doing with it now?
Fantastic! Well done you👍🏼👏👏💪
well done brother
@@Lanashmeyshmey No one commented on it because it's bullshit.
@@benscott19841 Thanks. He's done all he said for 42 days and gone from 193lbs to 9% body fat?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? I call BS. This guy is trolling. I hope no one else fell for it.

Thanks heaps. You’re a legend. 👍
There's one problem with this diet: gallstones. I had my gallbladder removed because of eating eggs. the underlying cause is cholesterol malabsorption. Since then I've had to eat lean not for weight loss, but to avoid digestion problems as I can no longer breakdown fat.
@@karenharrison885 You have been misinformed. Your gallbladder problem most likely was caused by having too many carbs from eating a standard american diet, not from eating eggs. You absolutely can do carnivore or keto without a gallbladder, many people have posted videos and comments that have done so. Your liver doesn't stop making bile.
Thank you❤.
Thank you very much!
While I agree that honey has too many carbs to qualify for the carnivore diet, honey is not bee vomit. Bees carry nectar back to the hive in a pouch in their esophagus (after all, they can't really carry around tiny little buckets); it never gets down to the stomach and so, technically, it is not vomit. We beekeepers really don't like to hear that honey is bee vomit; we especially don't appreciate hearing it from a medical professional who should know better than to use such terminology to refer to a valuable agricultural product. In addition, I am a retired veterinarian. Believe me, I know the difference between vomit & honey.
So spit, not vomit.
It took the video down a notch immediatly as soon as he said it. Kinda cringe as we are in the same area as when vegans say "eggs are hens periods and it's disgusting to eat" - hello ideology.
In the same way that milk/cream (for your butter) is similar to mucous/snot?...sure. But no, no saliva, at least, not as we know it to be. Besides, in the grand scheme of things, saliva is better than vomit.@@chad1659
Agreed. I mean, honey has been used as food for thousands of years. For a medical doctor to compare honey to vomit, in order to keep people from consuming it, seems manipulative to me.@@violakarl6900
Honey is a food, not a breakdown or decay of food. Bees use their honey pouches to store it (not stomachs) and then add enzymes to it when they release it back up through their mouths. The expressed concern for those on a carnivore diet that the honey is primarily carbs is valid but honey is not regurgitated matter from the stomach. It is stored nectar in the honey pouch and enzymes are added by the bees as part of the process of making honey. Honey is known throughout time to restore health in the body as well as give important nutrients for sustenance. It is and has been beneficial to countless numbers of human beings. I find much of this doctor’s understanding of how the body meets nutritional needs and the processes it uses as being both rudimentary and overall not sound. For another example he recommends a supplement (he said he would put in the description but it’s not there) that is as far from eating nutrients the way our ancestors ate them as it gets. There are no supplements that can substitute for eating animals and animal by products via a manufacturing process that is anything near the same as the products themselves. I’m not against supplements, it depends on a number of factors. My point is that he wholesale discounts, for example, all collagen powder but then recommends this particular supplement company that indeed manufactures collagen, along with glandulars and fish eggs and intestines. Intestinal contents by the way are pre digested food that is in the process of breaking down. It is a great source of nutrients BUT if we are talking about something that has gone through the stomach (of ruminants) and is now in a state of break down through fermentation, it isn’t food but rather it is pre digested material - similar to what he is claiming honey to be. But nectar in the pouch of a bee for transport is not pre digested, thus it’s not breaking down. I’m not saying that those on a carnivore or keto diet want any carbs in their diet, often there is a strictness about carbs due to what some on these diets experience as soon as they have sugar or grains, which can be bloating and a sense of distress as the body uses bacteria and yeast to break down the carbs and sugars causing fermentation to achieve enzymes for transport. However unlike eating the predigested content of the intestines and stomachs of ruminants, honey is a food by all definitions. It is created through nectar and enzymes, not through a breakdown in the stomach and digestive tract.
Of note: Carbs become sugar as they break down, proteins become amino acids, and fats become fatty acids. When sugar is an issue for the body due in large part to the difficulty of the body in making enzymes for transport, a protein/fat diet can bypass this issue. However beware, you can see that some people running long term on solely protein/fat begin to cannibalise the tissues excessively. Tea and honey is good to explore as at least a bit of a bridge to a healthy carb. If excessive tissue loss (loss of muscle, ligaments, tendons, bone, cartilage) starts to occur, seek professional assistance. And, be sure to take feedback from those around you as to whether you’re waning, you may not notice the tissue loss is excessive. If the latter occurs, loss of tissue and an inability to perceive it occurring, it is serious as it is the definition of an eating disorder.
Today is month #9 on carnivore, I started out at 309 lbs. Now as of June 30th. I just tipped the scale at 197 lbs.
Yes I did still cheat, but have 90% carnivore. I went from size 46" jeans to 36" jeans, size XXXL shirts to XL shirts. People listen to this man, he knows what he's talking about......
I am starting this today. I weigh 238 and want to get below 200! I don't have a lot of money to do GF anything. What do you eat daily to lose weight and get healthy??
I eat a lot of eggs for one, made in as many ways I can I.e. fried, scrambled, boiled, lots of omelettes. Hamburger in lots of ways. Some with eggs, lots of bacon. But mostly you MUST CUT out all sugars, you MUST CUT out grains, you MUST CUT out soda’s, STOP using margarine and switch to butter. You can eat all meat products, just stay away from many spices.
day 21 here! started 341 now im 325 and feeling great!
Wow good for you! Amazing
Starting tomorrow I'm currently 370lbs. Goal is to be 310lbs. Trying to keep some bulk for football lol
I’m Celiac and doing Carnivore I can afford to buy the best of the best as I’m not forking out big money on GF breads and rubbish. I feel so much better, 64 going on 15. 😘
welcome to the 15's club!!!!
You save so much money too based on how much less you eat. Once you're fat adapted and eating fat rich foods, you can fast and go days or longer without having any hunger at all. The whole eat three meals a day everyday thing is crap.
I just got diagnosed with Celiac & other issues, so I'm starting a carnivore diet. I figured it was easier than trying to figure out where the lectins, oxalates & molds were hiding! The simplicity of shopping & cooking would be great if the rest of my family would join me, lol.
Have had the worst gluten rash yet, for a couple weeks. Cheated on keto to eat a giant plate of nachos from a restaurant. I'm slowly converting to carnivore. Feel like crap.
I just did a grocery shop and it was HALF the price of my normal shop. I even bought some fancy keto cheese "chips" and the best butter/bacon/eggs you can get in the store.
So, I got my step father of 75 years of age to do carnivore and he lost 25lbs in 2 weeks. His doctor freaked out and said that his liver enzymes are very high with this diet and the drug he takes that combats muscle fatigue. I suggested that he change his 3 meals a day habit and get rid of the drug. He has finally changed his eating habits once he regained the weight. He no longer takes the advice from the drug doctor. And now understands that the fewer meals a day from 11am to 4pm is key. Yay, he lost the weight that he struggled with. Bye bye food pyramid and 3 meals a day to support the food industry.
Good on YOU and thanks step Dad for listening and DOING. YEHHHHHHHHH
Almost three months on carnivore and down 36lbs. Most importantly, I'm not in pain due to inflammation. I feel so awesome and my energy is crazy high.
Crazy. You didn't accomplish this with bee vomit, did ya? ;) Bee Hippies.
Side note. As a chef, if you are a customer on a specific diet and you simply say "I'm allergic to x" to make sure we take every precaution to keep it out your diet, please let us know when you book the table, not when sat with a menu. By letting us know when you book the table, we have time to prepare and take the right precautions whereas if you do it in the middle of a busy service, it adds stress onto the chefs and we have to spend longer on said customer, meaning all the other customers will wait longer 🙏
Thank you, this is important info
❤
Thank you for taking the time to inform us about this. :)
Will also spit on your food... JK
Yes, I was taken aback at the restaurant message in here. Good input, original post.
37 days on carnivore for me = 32.6 pounds down, no more swelling in my feet and hands, no more am I anemic, no more snoring, no more exhaustion, no more hip pain, clear skin, and the life has returned to my eyes. Priceless!
I'm skeptical anyone could have those results that fast , speaking of which it's dangerous to lose that much so fast , hope ya seeing a doctor aften !
@@joecamel6835 I am eating well. No fasting yet. I just had my blood work done and it was great!!
GOD BLESS YOU!!! AMEN!!!
2 months since you posted this, can you update please? You should be over 60 days on.
I have been eating Vegan but I noticed I"ve gained about 20 pounds, I'm so tired that I can't hardly get out of bed.. my hair is thinning, my skin looks kind of creppy. I started the carnivor diet four days ago and I stepped on the scales this morning, I haven't bothered to weight myself because of disappointment! I lost 4.5 pounds!!!! I hope this will restore my hair and eyelashes.
Really enjoyed this video...I was told my whole life that I needed to eat fruits, vegetables, juices, grains and such. I never enjoyed them but I did eat them because I was told that is the way it is. When I got into my 20"s, with no one telling me what to do I ate strictly meat and I felt great. My only problem is I am an alcoholic. My reason for drinking was because I was a loner and never felt comfortable in social situations without being drunk. I did this for a very long time...I got married when I was 38 (for the first, and hopefuly the only time), I met a fantastic lady who is a very social (as if it's a bad thing) person and continued to drink to keep up with being social. I finally got sick of feeling like crap every morning from the booze and decided to quit. It was 2 weeks before I started to quit drinking that I ran into a friend of mine that I used to work with that told me he was on a carnivore diet. I asked, what is that and he told me he read a book by Shawn Baker, he tried it and he was feeling great. With the respect I had for my friend, I decided to try it and it changed my life!!! I did the carnivore thing, ate eggs, ribeye steaks, bacon, butter and sometimes some suit and before I new it I was feeling better. I decided to quit drinking beer (my flavor of choice) and I found it much easier to quit than I thought it would be. I don't know if the carnivore diet work for everyone but it's worth giving a try.
Bacon with nitrates and sugar? Isn't that a processed meat and not included?
@@convincedquaker Buy nitrate free, sugar free, organic bacon. It’s out there. Butcher Box has it.
Congrats and thx for sharing!!
@@convincedquaker- PLAIN/PURE bacon is available at most large grocery stores.
Thank you for sharing!
This video was so information dense and almost no rambling, its one of the few videos that I actually sat through and just listened to a guy talk for 20 minutes.
Same
Couldn't agree more!!
I live in Patagonia, it is a livestock area, mainly sheep and for many years the main diet of the population in my region was mutton and natural cow's milk and very few vegetables, the breakfasts of the farms were mutton chops and it was cooked with fat, in the houses people had chickens and fresh eggs, natural milk, fresh or cured mutton. We were always told that our diet was unhealthy, but there were very few obese people and the health of the people in my region compared to the rest of Chile was very good. My great-grandmother lived to be 104 years old and several of her siblings lived to be 96 and 98 years old. All those autoimmune diseases did not exist.
Could you share what a traditional breakfast, lunch and dinner consisted of? I'd love some ideas to recreate 👍💐
There are so many places on earth where the Western diet has destoyed the health of the people.
Long live Patagonia!
Marxist tyranny teIls us to not believe our eyes, to not listen to things that have been true for thousands of years and look at what a shitshow the last 100 years have been with these clowns. My advice is: ignore the idiots. You're doing fine.
Yeah what do you eat on a daily basis?
Normal people: "How can I reduce fat in my steak?"
This doctor: "Your steak isn't fatty enough. Add some egg yolks, for god's sake."
🤣🤣🤣
Crazy to think about but it works so amazingly well! I lost 50lbs in just 3-4 months and got so much healthier.
Add butter. A great fat balancer
Yep, his advice has my back pain and knee pain reduced to nearly nothing and my weight has dropped by 25# in a month. Results speak louder than "accepted wisdom"...
@@davidd7940 ghee bro
I did keto 3 and a half years ago and went from 432lbs to 231lbs in 18 months. However, over the following year, went back to old ways and got back up to 390lbs. Ive been struggling with keto this time round, the weight wast dropping off me like it did before so thought Id give this a whirl. 10 days in and so far so good, feel fuller than keto, no cravings, see how it goes.
There is a weird transition of about 3-5 days. When I first started I had a pop addiction. The transition days were very painful for some reason my pain went way up. I had chronic arthristis in my spine and muscle pain. After 3 days the pain went away and for some reason I couldn't drink the pop.. So my sugar intake went to basically zero.
One thing I recently learned though is you have to take vit D and A or you get acne. And I am trying to sort out this constipation issue but I assume I am lacking some nutrients somewhere but Ill figure it out. The weight loss in only 2 months is too impressive to go back to eating crap food.
I love people who help people and are honest.
And people that are saying things that you want to believe. That’s really what is happening most of the time when you perceive they are “honest”
@@thesweeples3266 Instead of saying this and spreading baseless doubt, it would be much better to explain how the guy in the video is being dishonest.
1. Seafood, eggs and butter are just fine to eat
2. Eat fat
3. Eat enough electrolytes
4. Eat enough omega-3 and get get rid of vegetable oils
5. Eat organ meat (especially liver) and bone marrow
6. Eat collagen (not in powder)
7. Watch out for imitated seafood
8. No rubs, sauces, marinades and gravies
9. Don't go eating out (unless you're very clear about what you can't eat)
10. Quiting carnivore to soon
11. Don't limit your portions, eat as much you want
12. Try to limit processed meat (OK if you can't afford anything else)
13. Eat salt
14. Don't overcook your meat
15. You don't need to take supplements
So you can’t use a plane Gravy?
No bc gravy is made with cornstarch or flour.
What about olive oil?#4
Extra virgin olive oil, butter, saved bacon fat is fine. You can buy tubs of duck fat at the supermarket as well ( sold in the meat section)
@@Zobby447 Hello Matt. If your definition of plain gravy is the delicious stuff in the pan after you cook, oh boy yes! I will put a bit of water, bone broth, or roast stock into a pan to lift all the goody. But like Phyllis said, I don't add flour or corn starch.
Yep! Carnivore cured my IBS and I’ve been symptom free from Bipolar disorder for 3 years. Also reversed my type two diabetes!
That is fantastic! you go girl!
Awesome
How Long did it take you to get rid
Of ibs?? What did you eat everyday ? Dos you experienced syntomps surfing the transition?
Chris Cardone hi, took only a week. Before I was trapped and had no life. Couldn’t walk the dog! So happy now and I wish the same for you. There’s a CZcams video from Dr Paul Mason which shows the results of studies where people have found relief. Best wishes
3mo into carnivore, nose to tail. Still use magnesium to have bowl movements. No boating or pain anymore. How long until you were pooping perfect little logs?
I've been on it for 2 weeks, lost 12 pounds so far. I eat steaks, eggs, BACON!!, burgers, and water. I eat until full, and stop when full. I spend less as I eat only once a day usually, but I eat very well.
I’ve been on for 4 days and lost 12 pounds so far.
Είμαι 53 και δεν έχω κάνει ποτε τέτοια διατροφή. Έχω ένα φίλο (63) που παντα ήταν ηπερ της διατροφής αποκλειστικά με κρέας ,ψάρι., γαλακτοκομικά. Τον γνωριζω 30 χρονια , παντα έκανε αυτή τη διατροφή και παντα ήταν ακριβως ο ίδιος !! Αδύνατος και μυώδης. Δεν αρρωσταίνει σχεδόν ποτε και είναι παντα σε φόρμα και έτοιμος να μπει σε δράση ανα πάσα στιγμή καθώς η δουλειά του είναι δύτης και υποβρύχιες εργασίες. Προσπαθούσε παντα να με πείσει ν αλλάξω τρόπο διατροφής και ήμουν αντίθετη σ αυτό.
Πλέον σκέφτομαι σοβαρά να το δοκιμάσω.
I'm 66. Carnivore helped me IMMENSELY. Knocked off 75 lbs. Took 8" from my waistline. My skin is very supple and elastic and prior health issues like high BP, onset of Arthritis, Asthma and onset of toe and fingernail fungus, GONE! I live very well on 1 meal a day with intermittent fasting. I encourage everyone to become a real human again, as God intended.
Wow. Well done Elias!
Can you please provide me. What's your regular day of carnivore looks like. Thanks
How much meat do you need on 1 meal ? Do you eat a variety of proteins and any eggs?
Mistakes:
1. Forgetting that seafood, eggs and butter are carnivore
2. Eating too lean of a diet (too little fat). Ok to add more butter and egg yolks (pastured preferably) if you can only afford leaner cuts of meat.
3. Not getting enough electrolytes.
4. Not consuming enough omega 3 fatty acids.
5. Not eating organ meats
6. Not consuming enough collagen. (However, avoid powdered collagen -- a waste of money).
7. Eating imitation seafood
8. Consuming sauces, marinades, rubs and gravy
9. Eating out at restaurants without awareness of non-carnivore ingredients used to prepare your food
10. Quitting carnivore too soon (due to temporary discomfort experienced by some when first embarking on a carnivore diet)
11. Restrictng portions
12. Eating processed meats that contain carbs (sugar, grains)
13. Avoiding salt (Redmond's Real Salt is a good choice)
14. Overcooking your meat (don't cook beyond medium rare)
15. Taking supplements (they're unnecessary on a carnivore diet)
Guess I have to stop eating my meat well done and medium well. And get over slot of my meat aversions

I started carnivore about 6 months ago at 55 years old 275+lbs. on blood pressure medicine and cholesterol medicine. I am now 225 lbs. off of all prescription medicine, my cholesterol dropped 45 points, no longer pre diabetic, normal A1C I feel great -best decision I ever made
The Deep State killed millions of Americans with their FDA lies.
Wow thats great...
@@needparalegal that term "the deep state" is psychological warfare be careful attacking the "deep state" that's your subconscious mind your talking about. That term recently used with that "Q" movement is psychological warfare for you to harm yourself. If you ever read the Bible, the cursed son of Noah was ham but the curse was actually put on Hams decendent who is "Canon" which is really in the Hebrew language "Qanon"..and Ham/Qanon were the "darker" race of Noah's offspring. Or the "black race" and the "black race" is a metaphysical representation of our souls!!! The "shadow" or the "hidden Man" who we are constantly at war with without knowing it . I'm not asking you to believe me but do your own research. The only way to harm an immortal being is take away it's knowledge of self and cause division within that being so one half of the being can attack the other half ignorantly thus causing harm to itself.
@@drewskilodge1128 LOL, funny, but Deep State is not a Q term. Deep State was coined by very real experts long before the Q False Flag was used to discredit anyone questioning our tyrants.
@@needparalegal those "experts" are experts in controlling and enslavement.
3 weeks. Made mistakes and still 21 lbs down. 😃😃😃😃😃😃
🥳🥳🥳
You rock, queen!
Im 16 down in 3 weeks
Wow how are you feeling now?
Are you guys still on Carnivore? How is it going? I'm 4 days in. Yesterday was rather explosive, but otherwise, I feel great and I'm down 6.6 pounds.
Here I am at 7:28 p.m. on Thursday night May 9th 2024 and I just wanted to let you know that my friend turned me on to the carnivore diet. He is lost from about 255 lb to 19 7 lb in 6 months was off of all of his meds that they were telling me had to take for blood pressure, diabetes, hypertension, stress and is happier than he's been in over 30 years. I have lost almost 30 lb myself and I am not 100% carnivore like he is but I stick to it as much as possible and I feel far better than I have in years. I have brought my A1C down from 6.9 to 5. 7. God bless your doctor and we so appreciate you and all the other doctors that have strayed away from the garbage. They've been trying to tell us that we need to do like the heart healthy diet. I watched my husband that's past 8 years now. Eat the heart healthy diet and died with kidney failure because of his own choosing of not eating more healthy
Dr. Berry I started carnivore four months ago. I am 70 years old, 5'6" tall and weighed 170 pounds. It was time for my annual physical. I had blood work done and a week later saw my physician. I have lost 15 pounds and am feeling pretty good except for a heaviness in my chest which was not severe but would come and go. I attributed the chest heaviness to low quality air in the city. I have always been athletic and I walk three to six miles a day everyday and ride my bike for fun. I got my blood work results and my cholesterol which had never been a concern with my doctor was: Total cholesterol 290 with LDL at 196. Looking back to my pre-carnivore blood work my total cholesterol was 259 with LDL at 168. My physician had not been concerned with my earlier cholesterol numbers though not in the normal range. She did not know I had been on a carnivore diet. I had not known my LDL cholesterol was high until she told me she was concerned on this most recent visit nor did she know about the tightness I was having intermittently in my chest. I immediately attributed the change to the carnivore diet. I love the carnivore diet and do not want to give it up. I also don't want to run into problems with my heart. I would very much appreciate your feedback.
I also have the tightness in my chest 2 months into the diet where as not before I don't have insurance can't afford labs am 58 y.o. 198lbs 5'5"
Oh boy I don't need this problem I already had high cholesterol and tightness in my chest. Did any of you find out if your problem was due to his new diet? If so please let me know. I'm 60 and don't want to drop dead because I decided to do some fad.
My LDL is 225 on statin 10mg daily. I don’t mind my LSL as long as other marker is good.
@@SongbirdRanch2005wow, 225 LDL? Are you feeling ok? My LDL is 91, and my HDL is 92. I’m 47 and my energy levels are always high, but I’ve been eating a clean whole foods plant based diet for 14 years (with lots of avocados and nuts), and I love walking - yesterday I walked 20km around the city
Retired husband and wife living in this house and mostly just Social Security for income. Too expensive is not an excuse for not eating carnivore. In the last week I bought large eggs for 77 cents a dozen, whole pork shoulders for 97 cents a lb, 10lb bag of chicken hind quarters for $4.38 for the bag, 80/20 hamburger for $1.99 and a whole beef brisket for $2.99. yes, having a freezer helps along with the ability to cut up my own meat but we honestly spend less money eating this way that we spent eating the SAD diet.
Fasting saves money too.
And all you have ended up with is bags of poison. Chicken are fed corn and grains, destroys nutritional content. Pork is feed lot raised on grains, just grains by proxy, same for cows.
@@alfrednewman292 you'd think that but you'd be wrong. it is true that the ratio of nutrients is different, but it is not devoid of nutrition or lacking, just a different ratio. while the system needs to change for the welfare of us, the environment, and the animals, the meat is still nutritious.
Alfred Newman yep 💯 correct
@@roostermako6749 No it is not, it is poisonous. Those grains fed to sickly cows at feed lots are of the GMO variety insuring direct intake of glyphosate, highly toxic. The only nutrition there is for cancer cells, not healthy cells. Also, the omega 6 to omega 3 ratios are grossly in favor of omega 6 which is very unhealthy. This diet of grains has also eliminated most of the minerals, enzymes and vitamins that animals get from eating fresh grasses. It has gotten so bad that it would be better not to eat meat at all if that is all you can get. But not to worry, Bill Gates will have an even more toxic mixture ready for all the little sheeple soon.
liver is the most digusting thing ive ever tried. we all have limilts and thats mine
Seeing a 3 yrs old video, and seeing more recent videos, shows you walk the talk. You look SO MUCH HEALTHIER! Bravo Doc, Bravo!!!! 👏🏽
I started today!!!! 195lbs and my goal is 150. I know I can do this after watching all of your videos over the past week. Wish me luck!
I don't think you need luck with this one! Carnivore saved my life. Started today for round 2
haggis has vegetables.
Good luck👍
The very best of luck!
How’s it going??? 🎉🎉🎉
I have 2 1/2 months - carnivore way of eating - I’m 73 years old and I have reduced my weight by 47 pounds from 267. I can’t thank you enough for your knowledge- blessings to you!
That's awesome! It's never too late! Cool!
👏👏👏👏
Way to go, Keith!!!
THAT is a lot of fat! Congratulations! Mine hasn't been dramatic like that but I've keto more than carnivore. Starting to switch now.
Awesome!!! Great job, Keith.
Dr Berry thank you for the down to earth presentation. I am 66 yrs and my health is a mess. I am overweight and frankly ready for the knackers yard. I have downloaded your free information booklet and bought your book kicking arse over 50. Looking forward to your insight into this amazing topic
I started yesterday on my Carnivore journey. I only started with the best, most expensive, quality grass-fed beef and Lamb.
Let's see how it goes.
I chopped beef liver into bite sized pieces and cooked it with bited sized pieces of bacon. It was delicious! My step daughter thought it was carne asada. I didn't tell her otherwise. She had three servings. I need to make this again!
Did you put anything g seasoming
That sounds great. Will try that. I LOVE liver.
You should probably he honest about what you're feeding other people. I'm glad carnivore is working for you though!
Carnivorse helped my psoriasis, eczema and puffy face. But I was only able to stick with it for about 2 weeks. Went back to coke zero, dairy, and alcohol -- and my problems resumed
Hey man, good for you!
What is your diet exactly? Found any foods that you avoided? I have eczema as well...
Are u eating all natural meats? Just curious
Congratulations 🎉
Hey J M, I'd love to hear more about how carnavore cured your psoriasis. How long did it take to clear your skin..?
Thats great to hear man i have psoriasis and just started carnivore on day 4. How long did it take for results? Any tips you have would be so helpful 🙏
Started 6 month ago at 96 kg, 77 years, 180 cm, lost 12 kg now at 84 kg now feeling a lot better, stopped using magnesium because of diaria. Knee pain is gone not sure the reason maybe less weight. Now i am not loosing weight for the last month being stable at 84 kg feeling & looking better, thanks Dr. Ken. Subscribed.
Thank you …again!
Always a lot to learn….and I like to look at your Escher drawing behind you…a classic !❤️🎶
My husband did SO WELL with carnivore diet but he got bored with it and his "cheat" meals started turning into "cheat" days and so on... Don't let that happen to you.
Dr. Berry,. After being on keto for s while, I kind of eased myself into a carnivore diet. I've lost 30 lbs and continue to lose about a pound a day. Never hungry. Mental clarity. No side effects this far. Just wanted to share my progress with you.
Nice job!
Charline... These comments such as yours is giving me such hope... I have been doing carnivore for about one and a half months and am experiencing such a big relief of not being hungry all the time.
Good to hear!!
Hi Charlene. Thank you for this comment. I have been living a keto lifestyle for over 4 years and at first it worked so well and the last year I not only stopped losing but gained weight. I've been SO sad, just feeling terrible and grumpy. I feel like why do I bother? I am so strict with myself and everyone else doing this even cheats and still get so thin. I just started carnivore today and I'm really feeling this will work for me. Seeing your comments makes me smile. So happy for you and looking forward to a happier healthier me.
I tried it some years ago. Dr. Atkins diet. I lost weight but I got very constipated so I had to stop it.
And from listening to your videos,
I've learned to eat right, and I've lowered my A1C from 7.4 to 5.5, this is my success story,
and I am a diabetic type 2, non-diabetic numbers like my numbers this morning were 99 before breakfast, and 124 after breakfast, and I am learning more everyday, thank you for being here in this video and helping people understand things to change their life, thanks Ken and family.
When I crave vegies, I love dipping cauliflower in my home made blue cheese dressing. I make it with avacado mayonaise, sour cream and buttermilk. No seed oils or sugar. Delicious.
you can’t eat veg
@@hayleyjeantaylor so what. Obviously she's not strict
1. Forgetting seafood/eggs/butter are carnivore
2. 2:10 Eating too lean, target 2:1 fat to protein grams
3. 4:37 Not getting enough electrolytes
4. 5:25 Not getting enough omega 3 fatty acids
5. 6:50 Not eating organ meats
6. 8:16 Not getting enough collagen (powder doesn't count)
7. 9:20 Don't eat imitation seafood (added oils, sugars, grains)
8. 10:03 Watch for carbs and bad oils in sauces, gravies, Dry rubs, etc.
9. 10:55 Watch for bad ingredients added to meat when eating out
10. 11:50 Quitting too soon, takes 4-8 weeks to feel good but sometimes even longer
11. 13:04 Portion restricting, eat until full
12. 14:30 Avoid processed meat (if you can afford it) and "natural flavourings"
13. 15:46 Restricting salt
14. 16:40 Over cooking meats, cooking breaks down nutrients, raw is ok if smells good
15 (controversial). Supplements are not needed with the proper human diet
Well in my case a supplement for muscle cramps are needed cause I can’t get rid of these damn muscle cramps in my feet, especially the toes ughh
2:1 fat to protein but I am confused because in that same statement it begins with " if you have significant fat to lose, this is what you want to burn, but as you transition.....". So what should the ratios be if you DO have significant fat to lose?
@@vibekelavan7843 Dr Anthony Chaffee says not to count anything just eat meat until you are comfortably full, but it seems like carnivore is getting more confusing, so for myself, I’m not adding sticks of butter, I will follow what my body tells me, If I’m hungry I eat if I’m not, then I don’t, if my skin gets dry then I will know to add some fat in slowly, I myself am not going to add a full stick of butter and I’m not counting macros, common sense to me is calories in calories burned, if you don’t burn the extra it get gets stored as fat, so just stay in tune with your body and might not hurt to keep a journal…
@@vibekelavan7843 It really depends. I had to really work on eating more fatty cuts of meat and I added butter over time. Not a stick of butter but a tablespoon. I have found for my own situation that I need the added fat to keep my energy up and for my mental health. I do take electrolytes on water during the day. If it is my day off, I take less. If I am working my physically and mentally exhausting job, I drink more. After I added butter, I was able to get to sleep and sleep through the night. So that was worth it to me.
Thank you, that was helpful.
I was laughing when you were talking about bee vomit. There was a nutritionist giving a talk about sugars and this young lady said but "honey wonderful bees make it for us and it is natural" to which he replied "syphilis is also natural and I won't be recommending it".
Happy Canada Day
LOL
Dr.Paul Saladino, , author of "The Carnivore Code", says that raw honey is very good for you and he even brushes his teeth with it. Not kidding.
Funny! I stopped with the honey, years ago; my brother has bees and still tries to give me some. Honey spikes insulin plain and simple--it's one of the 80 forms of sugar. Spiking insulin compromises your immune system -- kinda defeats the so-called purpose of honey. Meats give us vitamins, minerals and are by far more beneficial.
@@joanblack6672 Loved his book, but there were a few things that I cringed on!
Hilarious 😂
Excellent & informative. Thank you, Dr. Berry. I think it would be terrific if you & Gary Null had a friendly, civil debate about the benefits of a carnivore diet as compared/ contrasted to a vegan, plant-based diet. I think an audience of curious, intelligent, & relatively informed individuals who are concerned about the best health therapies, would benefit greatly from such a civil debate from two experts with consumer protection at heart.
i remembered, that i refused sweets, cake and all the cornflake stuff as a child. so as i started carnivore it felt like coming home. After 3 months i did a complete check as the doctor because my boyfriend was afraid i could hurt myself with this diet. AND the result was amazing. my bliid results were perfect fine AND it was the first time for years that my inflamation markers were normal. i was soooo happy! my doctor said, whatever you do now, go on!
Thank you for showing me, that i am not crazy, loving to eat meat...and i am very grateful for the animals that give me a part of themselfes so that i can live a goid healthy life.
Doc
My wife and I did. Ketogenic few years ago, lost a ton of weight, even the baby fat, we moved and derailed us, but we are starting the process again as of last week, the best thing I remember was how light on my feet I felt, and my stomach felt good, ever since my stomach has shown me it’s doesn’t like certain things, like bread, I love it, and as Chef it kills me. Thank you for such a serious science/history lesson on this topic, your doing Gods Work!
I am a 75-year-old male and yes I cured my ulcerative colitis by going carnivore. It doesn't happen instantly but give it 60 to 90 days and it will be gone or greatly improved my case was so severe it took about 6 to 8 months before it was totally gone my doctor was angry with me and dropped me as a patient because I refused to take his medication - that was 12 years ago and I have not had a problem. The only thing that I have changed - I have increased good healthy fats and decreased Protein. About 70% fat and 30% protein. Also, my gout which I have suffered from since I was in my mid-30s is not better it's totally gone, That didn't happen until I change the ratio of fat to protein.
The reason your doctor was mad at you was because you cut off his kickbacks from Big Pharma. A healthy patient doesn't bring in the bucks.
I was dropped by a rheumatologist and escorted out of her office when I did that. I had the worst reactions to every medication she gave me and she finally said we'd wait 6 weeks before we tried a new med. During that time, a guy I know who also had lupus said that in Europe they treat lupus by removing wheat and soy, so I tried that and my lupus symptoms improved better than any of the meds. I didn't realize the reaction I was going to get when I said that was what I was doing. I told the bored student nurse and she said "hang on a second" and ditched me. And my doctor, who was a hefty gal, literally ran into the room. Then she had me repeat the story, and said "Well, I guess you don't need me then," and had me escorted out, which was unnerving. I wasn't sure what I did wrong then, but I know now. I could have singlehandedly ended her practice, one patient at a time. Fast forward 15 years and I went from no gluten, no soy, to low carb, to zero carb and my joint pain is gone, fatigue gone, skin is better, cholesterol and A1c normal and I feel better than I did in my teens.
Ironically I’m reading this today my gut and esophageal area is burning and I think I’ve been putting off what I think is ulcerative colitis. Four years ago at an EGD I was told I was in beginning heartburn. May I ask you quickly and hopefully you’ll see this I understand the carnivore part but exactly what good fats are there beyond avocado and obviously I’m not gonna drink healthy cooking oil. Ty if u see this n answer.
@@sandyk7611 good fats are animal fats like tallow, suet, lard, duck fat, and bacon grease. You can also eat grass fed butter (like kerrygold) and egg yolks.
@@jewelsbarbie ty this is not what I thought was healthy. Meat fat 🤢. Bone broth yeah n healthy oils, avocados. I do eat grass fed butter
I used to cover meat loaf in ketchup....Now I wrap it in Bacon
Yes! Lay raw bacon on top of the meatloaf while it's cooking! Plus I put bacon pieces IN the meatloaf.
Lol, too much bacon is never too much bacon 😇🥓

We made a keto bbq sauce made with bacon grease, peprika, chili powder, garlic, onion powder, salt and pepper... Mix it all up then brush on room temp chicken breasts...❤️
Add a little Bragg's apple cider vinegar 🙂

@@user-yq2uv4bp9q he is saying that eating flesh from a Panda 🐼 that was fed with grass (and not grains) and that was massaged before killing it would be very expensive.

I have been doing the BBB and E. I feel great! Thinning out the menopausal stomach and my energy level is high and my asthma is 90% better.

We don’t need those nitrates 😊
I never felt so bad physically and mentally as when I was vegan for two years. Always sick, fat, constant gut issues, depressed and always always hungry. Meat makes me feel full, energized and happy
What were you eating those two years?
I was strictly vegan for a year. I thought I was doing fine, a little on the thin side. A friend though was concerned for me and urged me to eat some milk products, and WOW! Suddenly I had energy I didn't even know I was lacking. I realized that I was weakened by the diet, and the milk products brought a lot of strength back into my body. I've never tried veganism after that, and I felt from that day on that it's not healthy for anyone, despite all the hype about it.
Veganism is not a healthy nutrition but an ideology.
a healthy body is well stocked in calcium = good brain matter/tight skin / strong bones/ healthy muscle...oxalates (oxalic acid) in plants loves to bind with calcium in the intestines, and when the oxalates are passed out the system it takes your much needed calcium with it, thats why when you are old your bones are brittle, skin loose, hair falling out and all your joints are inflammed...all those with GOUT just for one week before you put a plant in your mouth google it make sure it is oxalate free, after a week your gout will be gone (or going ) even the most sceptic among you can give it a week surely
@@tonyh5484 Thanks for that interesting information!
One little note for number 8. You can make a carnivore gravy with just the meat juices and cream. Stir them in the pan until it somewhat thickens and there you go. Play around with the amount til you get it where you like. It may not be as thick as regular gravies but boy howdy does it taste good.
A good carnivore thickener is beef gelatin powder.
@@PM-zb7jm I recently saw some beef powder mentioned in another recipe. Does it work reasonably well? Compared to say flour?
@@krisdeaglephotography4539 Very well! Good for healthy homemade jello too. Great in coffee…put tsp gelatin in cup and poor coffee on top and stir. Good natural source of glycine.
This is why i take time to scroll through the comments
Exactly. And I use cheese as well as thickener.
I love both the information & the MC Escher print in the background on the bulletin board....great stuff either way! HA!
This is so validating and gives me confidence as I start it today. Thx doc!
How it worked ??
Im starting today
TIP: I heard a good trick to incorporate liver. Have the butcher grind it up and add it to handmade burgers, meatballs, meat sauce in a ratio of 3:1 and increase from there. It blends in nicely. Season as usual.
Pip. Ratio of what to what? Liver to beef or beef to liver?
Must be beef to liver. Otherwise the liver completely overtakes in taste.
Good diet hack.!
I use a chicken / pork liver pate, just a bite of it, a few times a week - until I get better at cooking beef liver!
@@beaupeep where do you buy that?
Absolutely fabulous video; I used to be a chubby little guy but not anymore; I’ve been doing a carnivore diet for approximately 3 months now & my high blood pressure is now in normal range & no longer medication controlled, blood lipid profile is excellent, I’m slim & wear skinny jeans, smaller sized Ts & shirts & I’ve noticed some women are noticing me.
Wow, that's awesome :o
I really needed to see and hear this one.🙏 Thank you.
Foods I eat out on a carnivore diet. Steak 🥩 and Eggs 🥚. Steak rear to medium. Always have your eggs fried sunny side up or over medium. Never scrambled they maybe be adding additional ingredients and most likely are. Flying Dutchman at In-N-Out Burger or a location like it. 4 to 8 hamburger patties cheese onions tomatoes optional. No condiment sauces of any kind. That’s about it unless I’m with a group and a family and there’s not many other options you can almost always order some type of carnivore meats. Going off a little on rare occasions isn’t gonna be a problem it’s consistency that is key and that will be what you buy for yourself take home prepare and eat yourself so that you know best what’s going in your body and even then sometimes it’s hard to be exactly sure, what may all be in something. I want to thank you for your program. You are definitely on one of my top of the list though I still do some keto but mostly 8090% carnivore takes time but you lose weight. Your energy gets consistent you feel better and you feel better mentally and at 63 years old my painful body and mind can use all the help I can get. I’ve been gradually trying to wean myself off of more prescription pharmaceuticals. My Doberman and I will be having steak and eggs this evening.🥩🥩 🍳 🍳 🍳🍳😎😋😊

Well done Patrick!!
What do you eat?
I don't understand how people go on living life eating food then feeling tired. I used to eat foods like french toast with syrup and feel absolutely exhausted for the rest of the day. It was an immediate issue I needed to fix in my eyes
I’m 50 and want to eat more meat! Trying not to eat so much bread and rice. Need to go to the gym also!
Another way to get the organ meats is to ask a butcher to blend them into your ground meats. Whole Foods in Oklahoma and probably Texas carries a brand called Force of Nature and they sell ruminant meats in an “ancestral blend” in the frozen section. It’s pricier there but it may be an option.
The butcher I go to sells organ ground meats with different parts of the animal. Working on getting way from store bought and more direct from the farm with them.
I like your content, its straight to the point and no BS.
Dr. Berry is the man. About 2 months in, down 25lbs and my chronic back is 100% better. Your channel is extremely important.

Thank you for doing what you do. I started the carnivore diet in January I was 300 lb and now I weigh 213 lb. Thanks to you and some other CZcamsrs I have no more skin tags.

I'm about to start carnivore, for the health of it. This video was very helpful.
I am 73 years, 6.0 feet tall and recently stumbled upon your channel. Thank you for clearing so much up for me. Started "dirty-Keto" June 2021 at 230# and got myself down to 166.8# (as of this morning). But I sure could have saved myself a lot of angst had I discovered your channel sooner. Counted carbs trying to stay under 20-net but then another MD says no, stay under 20-consumed. Either way, recording every bite of food to the gram, teaspoon, ounce, etc. on an app is a huge pain in the rear. Heck, I raise my own chickens (have 36 young hens right now) and my large freezer is full of venison I harvest and process myself every year, plus whatever beef we purchase...it's full! Carnivore is what I need to be doing, I see and understand that now. After hearing you talk about saving ALL the bones for bone broth, it makes me ill to think about the well over 100# of venison carcass bones I discarded just this last season. All that changes right here, right now. Semper Fi

@Shaikha Al No I didn't but you have to keep exercising of course. It's about constantly refining and modifying your diet and listening to your body to see what works. Everyone is different. I also don't look for the silver bullet solution. There isn't one. Take the best from all diets. Listen to your body for what works. Discard what doesn't.

Most excellent presentation! Thank you.
One thing I like about Berry, he keeps his political views to himself and separate from this channel. People watch him for health and nutrition information, and that's exactly what he delivers. He doesn't even dog-whistle one way or the other, he stays neutral.
I appreciate that too. Though he does talk about our "ancestors" from 50, or 100,000 years ago as if we evolved. That makes him lose a little credibility.
Ken Jackson If you’re turned off by the theory of evolution, how do you reconcile Dr. Berry’s scientific, evidence-based approach? It seems odd to accept some kinds of science-based evidence but reject other kinds. In fact, some of Dr. B’s and other low-carb nutritional advice are based heavily on human fossil records; if you think that’s fake, why believe any of his advice? (Not deriding creationism itself, but rather the refusal of evolution; I don’t find creationism and evolution mutually-exclusive, since one is magic faith and the other is based on observable data.)
@@commonground8412: _"... evolution, how do you reconcile Dr. Berry’s scientific, evidence-based approach?"_
Microbe-to-man evolution has no connection to a _"scientific, evidence-based approach"._ The actual science that Dr. Berry cites is based in studies done with _modern man,_ not some mythical cave man.
*Matthew:* _"It seems odd to accept some kinds of science-based evidence but reject other kinds."_
I only reject fake science, like microbe-to-man evolution. Of course when you think of "evolution" you've probably been duped into thinking about speciation. But that's a different process, based on genetic degradation.
If man had really evolved from a microbe, new proteins, new molecular machines, new organs and new systems would have had to develop.
It wasn't a bad hypothesis back in the 19th century, long before modern science uncovered DNA or any molecular machinery. But errors (mutations) don't accumulate to form the *complex, hierarchical, interdependent* systems that proliferate through life. Life was clearly designed. The revelations of science confirm it.
@@commonground8412 Save your breath. He'll 'copy and paste' you into oblivion with the latest "science" he's collected. Even if you manage to whittle down his arguments with real science, he'll eventually bust out his "god did it" card.
@@commonground8412 Mr. Jackson didn't say he doesn't believe in science! Don't be "that guy", it's so annoying! And by the way, people who don't believe that we-humans- evolved from CRITTERS, doesn't mean we don't believe in evolution, everything evolves! You don't think science is pretty magical, I do, it's awesome, like AWESOME in it's true meaning, you know, something that's SO amazing that you're awe struck? Don't be so close minded- it is so boring and typical. You are a negative person. To believe in something that you can't see is a blessing! Where was science when my grandbaby was supposed to die when when he was 7months old, but he didn't- he lived until he was almost 11years old. Caleb was a miracle that we could SEE with our eyes and scientists couldn't help him at all, but he looked at us with so much understanding and wisdom it would literally take away your breath, & when he smiled in the midst of so much pain- it was like nothing you could ever explain. Caleb smiles, changed the lives of people that got to be near him, he could reach out with his tiny little left hand and touch your hand or your face and make strangers feel something like a miracle! He was beautiful, he was an angel in the truest form of what an angel is. He was a gift from God, not science. He smiled into your soul right up until the moment he took his last breath, when God took back our little gift, to be with Jesus. Now he's gone, but he's not gone, an angel is what he is. And when my time is over, it's Caleb I'll see! And I won't be saying, "Oh, thank you science" I'll be saying, Oh thank you God ❤. You need to think a little bigger, 😪 think about Caleb's smiles.
I started Carnivore on Nov 2nd and lost 7lbs and I have IBS and cancer survivor with one kidney. So far so good, no IBS and normal bowl movement. Thank you.
Finally someone who has my issues, 1 kidney ,missing some colon and rectal cancer survivor. Hashimotos and hypothyroidism...hoping is doable and will move th scales..thank you for sharing..
How long did it take for IBS to go away? Im 6 days in no changes yet. But on the side im drinking some coconut water and eating honey idk if that would affect the diet but its hard to go strict on it
@@aarongonzalez4458 I had no sugars not even honey and the drank plain water and I can’t have coconut. I noticed after two weeks.
And I added Lmint to my water in the morning.
@@catherineperry1267 shit its hard asf. I get dizzy even with low carbs from honey and coconut im pushing through slowly i will decrease the carbs
Would it be ok to have coffee?
Thank you so much! I was contemplating starting this! And after seeing your video i have made up my mind! I do have have mild hypertension and elevated cholesterol but im just tired of gaining weight and being perimenopausal, my body is having a hissy fit! I cant loose weight for nothing and im tired of exercising and not seeing results!
This is very helpful, thank you! 🙏❤️
My grand niece, who is 9 months old, LOVES liver puree cooked in butter with egg yolk. She is also a fan of salmon and pumpkin. So far, pumpkin is the only veg that she has had. She has never eaten sugar or any junk. The only seasoning is Redmonds real salt.
I wish I knew then what I know now. My kids are lil sugar fiends. I have to cut them off.
@@LauraBeeDannon My son ate only chicken liver, duck eggs, salmon etc when he was a baby, too, but he's 6 now and he's always asking for a piece of dark chocolate or a gluten free graham cracker, lol. Luckily he'll also ask to eat straight butter sometimes, so hopefully I haven't let his diet go too far off a healthy track! XD It's easy when kids are babies, but it gets harder as they grow up and see other kids (who eat SAD) eating junk food and treats and you have to tell them no. You're a good mama for being mindful of limiting their sugar intake and better late than never with learning healthful ways to be able to teach them now! You go, girl! :D
Today I started strict carnivore 💜 after 16 months keto!!
How is your progress coming along?
Hey, please tell us how is it going for you
@@HB-xw6im hi, doing well. I'm back to keto-carnivore I added back some avocado but other than that I'm eating fully carnivore specially for my type one diabetes!
@@gallettiguitartones happy to hear you are finding your way around it. Im starting carnivore now. With keto i get too distracted with nuts and dairy, thats not helping my fat loss goal. I hope you are achieving your goals!
@@HB-xw6im wishing you the best ! I have an Instagram account where I share my foods @t1diabetic_onketo
I love dairy too it's a struggle lol but I'm doing well thanks
last year I bought an instant pot and started cooking meats in it and it turns all the ligament tissue into gello and it has so much flavor I was amazed. I never throw out ligament tissues now. I eat it all.
I make bone broth in my instant pot from bones.
7 kilos in 2 months. Feel amazing. Perfect! Thanks for the teachings!
You talk about taking a nap after eating, but what I love about not eating sugar or carbs is that I don't get that after lunch slump. That was a big motivator for me because as a mental health counselor, it's important to be alert and focused.
I can see why having your game on is important to you. 1:15 P.M. I picture you with a note pad, listening to a client. Only notation on the pad, "I need a nap." Funny not funny. Lol. I drive a garbage truck. Sometimes 14 hour days. I really enjoy the steady energy level and being alert all day without the use of stimulants.
100% that’s exactly what I’ve noticed and I’m in my first week
@@johnvanegmond1812 lol!!! Definitely don't want to be daydreaming about a nap. 🤣 Thanks for all you do. I am sure not feeling sleepy while driving feels really good!
Adderall ,caffeine ,sugar diet.
I'm 59 and have a farm. I love my after breakfast nap! 2pm to 3:30pm. Then I go back to work and eat my last meal, finish chores and go to bed!
I like the way this doctor talks about carnivore. As with anything we do, there is an adjustment period for the body to react to carnivore. Carnivore is beautiful in that the body easily adjusts and reacts to the diet because we were engineered to subsist on proteins without any ill affects. No allergies, no inflammation, etc. I've been on a carnivore diet for about 3 months, and I'm 69 years old. I'm loosing body fat and increasing muscle mass, all the while eating as much meat as I want, definitely comfortably stuffed. The only issue I'm having is with my doctors at the VA. Every single one has admonished me for going carnivore. I wish they would watch Dr. Berry, his channel has helped me get my diabetes under control.
A patient healed is a patient lost 🤷♀️.
I started mine 3 days ago after having gastrointestinal issues and eating disorders because of it for years, I hope this works for me and people like you give me hope, Im soo happy for you and I hope everything keeps going well 🥰
There is little research about long term effects of it.
Doctors aren't going to get info from youtube. They get it from other doctors that do research.
No shit, I lost like 30 lbs and told my VA doctor cause I wanted to check my levels. He asked me what my secret was and I told him I got on a Carnivorish diet. He told me to stay away from that and go on a Mediterranean diet or some crap like that. I told him this is the only way I can sustain my diet because of how much I can eat and needles to say I never spoke to him again
@@never2be07 You can do a low carb Mediterranean diet. It is mostly things like chicken, olive oil, vegetables, etc.
I've lost a little over 30 pounds now. I eat a low carb diet Sunday - Friday, but I mostly eat lean meat like chicken. Saturday I eat what I want. I don't care about ketosis. Low carb, low fat, high protein lead to less cravings and calories.
LOL I'm 69 and get my healthcare from the VA also. I've been on the carnivore diet for most of the last 5 years. I am in perfect health and at my last annual checkup my doctor told me I was the healthiest veteran at our clinic! He was amazed at my lab results and asked me about my exercise habits and diet. I didn't make the mistake that a lot of people make and tell him I eat carnivore. I just told him I eat healthy, and didn't have to hear any B.S. from him.
I have been reading labels since Feb of 2020....down 60 plus pounds because of this simple concept! Dec 2023 and a few more pounds to go.
Light bulb just went on! This is why on the days when I eat eggs I have better results and feel better. I've always just counted my eggs as protein and not fat. Sometimes I will go days without having any eggs and is why I'm not seeing the scale move. 💡 Same when I don't have bacon for a few days. Thanks Dr Berry! 🥩🧈🥓🥚
I can vouch for the doctor 💯.
Carnivore 12 months:
My emphysema is *drastically* improved - I can now walk for miles without getting breathless!!
My BP is now 110/70 - same as a healthy young man..I'm 62yo (before carnivore BP was high).
CRP down from 300+ to 11.
HbAlc was 6.7 (diabetic) now 5.6 (non diabetic).
Icing on the cake? I've lost 70 1lb..(edit - 80 1lb)
TRY THIS WAY OF EATING
Did you quit coffee?
@@lillieball7662
I didn't drink coffee to begin with.
What’s about your cholesterol?
I’m so happy for you 😃🙌♥️
Please do some research on H202 on COPD people are having great benefits.
@@BoringTroublemaker
Rather than me type a long post about how and why we've all been decieved about cholesterol (which we certainly have), better to point you to videos by Ken Berry on this very subject (he's posted 900 videos). There are others like Dr Robert Cywes, Dr Paul Mason, Dr David Diamond, Dr Shawn Baker, Dr Annette Bozworth, Dr Ovadia (three of whom are surgeons) to name a few - all on CZcams.
My total cholesterol is 11.6 mmol/L (Europe) - considered very high. The figure on its own, without context, is meaningless. LDL 8.4 mmol/L - ditto. The most important marker for metabolic/cardiovascular health is the triglycerides/HDL ratio. It is the gold standard for accessing insulin resistance. Divide the triglyceride number by the HDL number. The target is 0.83 mmol/L or less - mine is 0.27 pristine.
I'm only on day 6 and it has made a huge difference already in my digestive system...thank you Lord! No more Nexium, no more IBS-D constantly. I can't wait to see all the other problems with my system melt away while I eat my steaks with butter... woohoo!
Glad to hear that!
How it is going now?
@@clemensh6214 still doing good! Have lost 13 pounds and my IBS is still improving and my RA pain is improving and my psoriasis is slowly improving. I realized this wouldn't be an instant fix, especially at 62 years old, but improving instead of continuing to decline feels wonderful!
@jimshirey2293 Good for you man, hope you're still doing well
@@MonstaTrapz yes I am, thank you. I'm in it for the long haul... feeling great still and better every day 🙏
YES!!! Thank the LORD!!!
Great video Dr. Berry ❤
Great video. Thank you so much Sir!!!
You had me at “Eat as much as I can and take a nap”
I can remember growing up my favorite breakfast before school was an "eggnog" shake my mom would make with fresh raw local cream, raw eggs and sweetened with a very little bit of our own precious homemade maple syrup. I felt SO much better on those days.
You had me at seafood.... 😂 But yes, I am so hopeful about this... After watching numerous videos, forums,etc. The comments alone are astounding!!
I agree 100% with you. However, everyone's body is different. As a health & nutritionist coach I advocate my cliets to keep a food journal can help find what works and what doesn't.
I'm one week into carnivore and your videos have been very informative. You missed 16. Don't tell anybody who thinks they know everything.
