I tell you guys;
JUST TRY IT; for 30-60 days;
Cut carbs absolutely as much as you reasonably can (not 100%, but reduce by ~70%), eat as much meat, dairy, fruits & veggies as you can.
YES: I mean cook up & eat an entire package of bacon, eat sour cream with a spoon like it's yogurt; oh; get some thick, heavenly Greek Yogurt & eat as much as you want..... drown your T-Bone in butter....... it's literally how we were meant to eat!!! All animal products, all the time.....
JUST TRY IT & see for yourself how you feel.
What do you have to lose?
You only stand to gain everything......
ETA:
ONE sugar shill downvoting me.......LOL!
Your days are numbered, big sugar!!!!
It took me exactly one week on this diet plan and I feel amazing. My arthritis is gone! Yes gone!!!
My energy levels are up dramatically and my constant hunger is gone. Lost ten pounds in three weeks. My skin is soft again, I can sleep at night now.
I was skeptical but not anymore.
Just started with a baseline, no sugar and no processed food what so ever.
I had been obese since I was a teenager and started working on finally slaying the dragon about 2 years ago (July 4th is my anniversary, how cool is that?). I started with only resistance training in the gym, then added in cardio, then tuned my diet. The only carbs I'm eating are 100% whole grain bread, tortillas and rice. Everything else is animal protein, fruits and vegetables. For drink all I consume is water, coffee, whole milk and unsweetened tea. No alcohol. Been on the diet since about Christmas and I'm down about 40 pounds. I feel better than I did in my 20s.
Carnivore, baby, go total carnivore and drop the fruit. Glad you are dropping the pounds, but there is a lot of evidence if you get on a full carnivore diet you will loose more weight and still feel great. Hope you continue your journey!
I had the opposite effect from carnivore! For about 2 weeks. Seems to have finally passed. No pun intended! I feel much better, dropping weight, more energy. But only a bit over 2 weeks at present.
You likely didn't take in enough fats. Fats are natural lubricants, too little and the ol' pipes clog up.
Many people make the mistake of going carnivor and eating as lean a meat as they can, when it's nice fatty juicy meats that you need. Makes perfect sense when you think about.
I can see my abs again! 8 mo! Strange that once I got over the “fat is going to kill me!” I really enjoy eating the fatty part of a steak!
This is why the cabal wants to eliminate cows! It makes us strong and healthy!
The “you must have fiber in your diet” is also a lie. It’s “take remdesivir and get on a ventilator because zinc and ivermectin or Hydroxychloroquine will kill you” except over a longer timeline. I remember as a kid eating soy burgers in the school cafeteria.
It's funny that the stuff that tastes the absolute best - that we have been brainwashed into thinking are the most heavenly / sinful - are exactly the foods they have brainwashed us to think are UNhealthy, and environmentally damaging;
Dairy products; milk, butter, sour cream, etc.
Any & all meat products
Any & all other animal products, incl. organs.
I say this sincerely; eat ALL the animal fat you want. You'll feel truly satisfied, you won't eat as much as you think you might, you will feel better, AND you'll objectively be healthier too.
What's "full carnivore"? Zero fruits / veggies?
If so, I do not agree with that.
The way it's been explained to me; what makes sense to me is this;
When humans first appeared on the earth (let's not talk creation vs. evolution; just imagine hundreds of thousands of years ago); we didn't have farming. We didn't have agriculture. We sure AF didn't have bakeries nor sugar mills.
If you were out in the wilderness - alone for hundreds or thousands of miles - what would you eat? Like what would physically be available to you as food?
Meat, incl. & esp. organs, skin & fat - you'd use the whole animal
Fruits, nuts, berries & seeds
Any edible roots and plants you could find
That's it.
Zero processed sugars.
Zero flour. Zero grain.
Zero processed meats (lunch meats & such).
And so on.
THAT"S what I learned & what makes sense to me;
Granted, I definitely do not stick to it 100% - not even close - but it's what I strive for.
I think you have to have plenty of fruits & vegetables.
Do a dive on the sugar content of apples, oranges and bananas. Heck, orange juice is basically sugar water with orange coloring. I take my carnivore tips from Dr. Ken Barry on YouTube. He dislikes fruits. I don't thinks veggies are too bad, a baked potato with tons of real butter tops off a steak nicely. Yea I know spuds have lots of carbs but I think it better than French fries boiled in veggie oil.
That’s so awesome!! I’m trying to pass it along to my friends but they ain’t having it. The best evidence is that it works. Kind of hard to miss that. Great job!!
Right??!?! That's the best, most eye-opening part; how carbs fill you up, but NEVER truly satisfy you. They bloat you up, make you pack on weight like crazy, but don't actually satisfy your hunger.
You know why?
They're cheap. Cheap AF, esp. compared to meat. The margin on grains, cereals, flour, etc. is insane.
Keep on going! Good for you.....makes me so happy to hear of more people eating naturally.
Amen! Cut out sugar and highly processed foods. There are many recipes on youtube that you can make healthy substitutes for just about everything out there.
*Atkins.
😜😘😂
But yes, I think so.... I think Atkins & Keto are generally the same.
Oh, ANOTHER THING people MUST do at least once because of how incredibly educational it is:
Do the whole 30 diet once. Full-bore. Really do it. One of the big tenents of that diet is no corn syrup.
Just TRY to go buy stuff that does NOT have corn syrup in it. It's almost impossible.
Canned foods; canned tomatoes; tomato sauce; bacon; literally almost anything & everything that's packaged these days has fucking corn syrup in it!!!
Everyone should do the Whole 30 at least once, just to get your eyes opened.
Your body needs iodine. The majority of which comes from iodized salt. I’ve had hippo thyroid problem for 25 years. I can’t prove it but when they came out against a hi sodium diet I cut salt out completely. Might have something to do with my thyroid issue.
Iodine treats Hypothyroidism
Hypothyroidism is an etiology or cause of Dementia
As is:
Hypercalcemia (Drink Milk it's good for you)
Niacin deficiency
Vit B12 deficiency
Add these to the list. I too take Iodine drops daily.
It is bad for you, if it advertizes itself as 'free-flow' in which case, it also has aluminium in it. Personally I am a Himalayan salt fan (rock salt very old), or Celtic sea salt, although that is more expensive. Salt deficiency shows up initially as acid reflux, and progresses to depression and dehydration (a lack of thirst) and worse. Of course the medical community profits from ant-acids, that only make things worse. So, salt is good. iodized salt is fine as long as it is not also aluminium contaminated.
I take iodine in drops because the 'natural salts' I like, do not have enough of it - I take it every day, and multiple doses if there is a tickle in my throat. Oh and seaweed of course.
Iodine deficiency is a massive problem world-wide, one symptom is a tight feeling in the throat when one is lying down, as if someone is pressing there. Immunities will be down at this point - which explains why one might mistake the feeling as just another symptom of the illness one is experiencing.
Interesting. Thanks for posting. It's no wonder I feel better when I follow a Carnivore diet. Jump off of it and I begin to feel crappy, achy knees and sore back after a restless night of sleep. There is some wise words in this man's video.
Even better if you have a decent local dairy to get your butter from.
I have to travel a few extra miles to a store that carries a local dairy's products, but it tastes better and honestly the price isn't really much worse than mass produced butter.
Eating saturated fats over unsaturated fats is a real thing. Unsaturated fats are more difficult for the body to digest, which is why people complain about seed oils being in so many things. Saturated fats ended up being demonized in the 1950s and 60s as new research from studies like the Framingham study showed a correlation because high-fat diets, high cholesterol levels in the blood, and high rates of heart attacks. People were having heart attacks at historic levels, and doctors were desperate to figure out what the hell had changed in America to cause this. Now, just as a point of history, Framingham was the first time anyone had attempted to do a large scale epidemiological study before and use statistics to try and identify root causes like this. They literally created the field of study with this work. It's extremely high quality data and it was carried out by some of the best doctors in the country. People, rightly, trusted it. Eventually, we'd find there were key nuances, but not until the 80s and 90s after we started replacing butter with margarine and telling people to avoid cholesterol only to find it didn't stop heart attacks.
For the record, the seed oils in appropriate quantities are perfectly safe and often, very healthy to eat. You can eat soybeans, including their seed oil, marketed as canola oil, just fine. We can go down the list from walnut, to flaxseed, to palm oil, etc. All of that is safe if you're eating the fruits of the plant in a natural and normal way. In fact, people who eat some of these ethnic diets are extremely healthy people with very low rates of cardiovascular disease and cancers.
The issue with unsaturated fats is the quantity. Like we do with everything in the US. We went big. We industrialized it. We recognized that these seed oils didn't have to be treated as waste products from manufacturing other products. They could be harvested themselves and sold, not wasted. The free market doesn't like waste, that's lost value and lost revenue. So, when people found a use for it as a fat substitute, all of this seed oil that was previous regarded as waste and used as engine lubricant, became ultra cheap food additives. When we started taking it in in such large quantities, that's when we started seeing what happens when the liver can't keep up with it.
TLDR: Yes, eat your butter. There's nothing wrong with it as long as you're not eating too many calories. There's nothing wrong with a little seed oil in your diet either. But avoid the processed foods. Seriously, learn to cook your own food and use simple, fresh ingredients. Once you get the knack of it, you'll be infinitely healthier and happier for it.
There's theory, and then there's clinical reality. This study has already been done. In the late 2010s, PCSK-9 inhibitors came onto the market as a new cholesterol-lowering option for people who maxed out on statins or who couldn't tolerate them.
The ODYSSEY OUTCOMES trial (published in the NEJM here in 2018) actually addressed the safety concern of extremely low cholesterol levels. 20-25 mg/dL is considered physiologic, the amount you must have to maintain your cells' cell membranes and such structures. These guys dropped ~9,500 (and other 9,500ish took placebo) patients to the 25-50 range for an average follow-up time of 2.2 years.
This guy is alleging nerve damage, but none was documented in this study. Check table 3. The rates of neurocognitive disorders in the trial group and the placebo group are essentially identical. The drug dropping LDL levels that low didn't cause anything like what this man in the Twitter video is suggesting.
This is a huge study with a long follow-up time. It's pretty much gold standard quality data, and disproves the random guy on the internet pretty conclusively.
This man talks like he understands. He doesn't. He's confusing cholesterol with fatty acids. He talks about the differences between saturated fats (fatty acids, not cholesterol) and unsaturated fats, and suggests it causes Alzheimers. It doesn't. Alzheimer's is caused by misfolding proteins called beta amyloids, not by fatty acids or cholesterol. And he alleges dementia didn't exist before 1979 and the characterization of Alzheimers. That's clearly false. Crazy old people losing their minds as they age have been known and described for millennia.
This man is why you don't listen to the internet doctors. You go to a real one.
Agreed. I knew the author is either not intelligent or selling clicks etc.
from the myelin is made of 100% cholesterol. The specialized protective sheath covering the most important delicate nerves in your body is just pure fat? Cmon nobody should fall for that.
When I worked in Pathology I learned the brain is mostly cholesterol. Once they started pushing cholesterol lowering drugs lo and behold we now suddenly hear about Alzheimers dementia. Also learned that is the most prescribed med in US ever since.
So I thought why in US and not in eastern Europe where my parents are from (thinking maybe my parents might develop dementia). Found where they were from their main diet was vegetables and dough (like pierogies) LOADED with grease mostly butter or bacon grease. My dad told me back then never heard of anyone in the old country with dementia.
All in all, cholesterol lowering agents are starving the brain.
I tell you guys; JUST TRY IT; for 30-60 days; Cut carbs absolutely as much as you reasonably can (not 100%, but reduce by ~70%), eat as much meat, dairy, fruits & veggies as you can.

Tried it.
Got so constipated I got nauseous, tried to shit at the toilet, failed, got up, tripped, fell, and broke my ankle.
Never. Again.
Eat your veggies, people.
I had the opposite effect from carnivore! For about 2 weeks. Seems to have finally passed. No pun intended! I feel much better, dropping weight, more energy. But only a bit over 2 weeks at present.
Ya the shits is a thing. I’m not convinced that you should cut out vegs either. Fruit for certain should be cut tho.
You likely didn't take in enough fats. Fats are natural lubricants, too little and the ol' pipes clog up.
Many people make the mistake of going carnivor and eating as lean a meat as they can, when it's nice fatty juicy meats that you need. Makes perfect sense when you think about.
this
you need the fat with the protein. Ribeyes, sardines and salmon is my go-to
You need to raise the butter if you can't go. LOTS of butter to start, then things will level out.
I can see my abs again! 8 mo! Strange that once I got over the “fat is going to kill me!” I really enjoy eating the fatty part of a steak!
This is why the cabal wants to eliminate cows! It makes us strong and healthy!

Green zones is a lie. They falsified the data.

I say this sincerely; eat ALL the animal fat you want. You'll feel truly satisfied, you won't eat as much as you think you might, you will feel better, AND you'll objectively be healthier too.
I'll look into it and give it a shot for a couple weeks. Just got a new bbq grill so the timing is right lol
What's "full carnivore"? Zero fruits / veggies? If so, I do not agree with that.

Keep going, fat ass! Tubby sumbitch ain't gonna be tubzz much longer.
Appreciate the motivation friend!

Yep! Exactly!
Basically keto.
Keto is good ---- low fat is good
The killer is the "combo" foods ---- fat + carbs.
The fats cause insulin resistance (OK without carbs)
The carbs cause insulin and sugar (OK without fats)
Here is the Rosetta Stone of dieting
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1f9g9Y1wm0
*It depends on the TYPE of fat.
Fats are essential for us, actually; for all animals.
Yes -- saturated fatty acids are the worse.
I think olive oil is OK.
*Atkins. 😜😘😂 But yes, I think so.... I think Atkins & Keto are generally the same. Oh, ANOTHER THING people MUST do at least once because of how incredibly educational it is:

My gains...
Wise words are written here.
Thank You!
Everything they sold as truth about bad foods for decades is a lie. It’s all bullshit
Like iodized salt is not bad for you?

Someone recommended real butter over margarine long ago.. Many other points hit home too!
Even better if you have a decent local dairy to get your butter from.
I have to travel a few extra miles to a store that carries a local dairy's products, but it tastes better and honestly the price isn't really much worse than mass produced butter.
Butter that comes from grass fed cows is way better than what you can get at the grocery. It's healthier for you, too.

People with high cholesterol still get altheimers...cool story though.
That's been shown in large part to be a nutrient deficiency in the brain aggravated by toxic metals.
Diets with higher levels of MCTs and omega oils are highly preventative and helpful.
Brainfog is lifted within three days or so. Enjoy your Bacon and Eggs. Get steak with a generous fat rind, and cook in lard or tallow.

Great funny video, thanks! We figured out years ago to go with natural products like butter. Such a difference.
