    The best part about carnivore is you no longer fear aging. It's like the fountain of youth that we've all been looking for our whole lives

    I was in Health Care (I call it Sick Care) for 30 years and it was so awful watching the patients receive 20+ pills before breakfast. After my own weight loss of 70 pounds on Keto, I was reprimanded for discussing low/no carb with patients. My motto is "Let food be thy medicine". Thank you for all you do.

    • @tabithalacopo4478

      In a normal just world, reprimanding someone for trying to actually impart health knowledge, would be the crime!

    • @Livetoeat171
      @Livetoeat171 Год назад +1

      That's because 90% carbs diet is all they feed the patients. It's cheap and filling. I saw that with my mother in a nursing home; she didn't want carbs, just vegetables and meat, but they wouldn't give her enough, so sometimes her neighbor would give her her vegetables because she knew my mom doesn't eat carbs. I'm worried that if I have to go to a nursing home, I won't get enough to eat either. They really do not cater to anyone's specific diet.

    69 year old female here. I've tried to keep carbs low for years but keep falling off. I am taking 30 different meds: type 2 diabetic, IBS, sarcoidosis (an inflammatory lung disease), asthma, CPAP user, high blood pressure, and arthritis. I just realized I might be able to reduce or reverse some of these illnesses by going strict carnivore. I am very addicted to carbs. Thank you both!

      Yes you can. I encourage you to give it a try. I'm 66 and don't take meds at all. Feel great since carnivore.

    • @micaonyx5301
      @micaonyx5301 Год назад +4

      Omg, I feel so bad for you. I'm 62 5'4 120lbs. I've been doing almost strict cornivore for about seven months. I didn't do it for weight loss but other issues. I did go from 128 to 114lbs very quickly and hated it because I looked too thin. If you need to lose weight it's definitely the way to go. I simply eat meat and fat until I'm satisfied. If I feel the urge to snack I just eat more meat and fat. I can't eat dairy of any kind not even butter, because it makes me gain weight and I don't feel well when I do. Two days ago I rode my bicycle 14 miles, had to stop because it was dark. I lift weights, rock climb, play tennis, roller blade, and on and on. I don't take any medicine and can out lift my 27 year old daughter and her friends in the gym. I've always been fit and active but the carnivore diet just kinda fine tuned things. Give it a try because you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Best regards

      @mpdurham Год назад +5

      If you just give CD a try, you can be prepared to toss so many Almond flour keto type ingredients from your house. After just a few days on CD, I go to the store, buy some meat eggs, bacon and maybe some butter and leave. Simple cooking, satiating meals, and you'll feel even better IMO than you ever felt on keto. Give it a try and aim for 30 days and carbs will likely seem nauseating to you. If you can do 3-4 weeks, you can continue long term. Good luck.

    • @williambelmont9601
      @williambelmont9601 Год назад +2

      It starts at the grocery store. Just don't buy the anything except meats, eggs, and maybe dairy depending on your tolerances to them. Start with fatty meat, cook it in butter and eat until you're full. Find other things to occupy your mind. Based on all your conditions, I'd also recommend starting some exercise, weight lifting and walking. If you can't get to those yet, start with the diet first and see how you go! Best of luck.

      72 here. Off statins, anti-depressants ,and asthma inhaler. No longer pre-diabetic. Started walking and , stopped snoring ( so my grandson tells me). My aches and pains have eased, and I've lost 14kg. Want to be able to ditch BP meds .It's not easy because I'm a hard-core carb addict. Get into it kiddo.

  • @arthurfonzarelli9828
    @arthurfonzarelli9828 Год назад +21

    You've nailed it here about moderation. I think keto is actually harder than any diet out there because it teases you. Way easier doing strict carnivore

    • @Livetoeat171
      @Livetoeat171 Год назад +2

      I absolutely agree, and when people are doing keto, it keeps you yearning for carbohydrates and sweets, because that diet allows you to have small amounts of both. It's a small step over the line to become carnivore, but it's so much easier to monitor and there are no more cravings.

    • @debramoore1428

      Instantly perked up on your comment! Meat or cheat. Choose wisely.😎

    • @mpdurham
      @mpdurham Год назад +1

      I agree as well. 85% of Keto videos were either suggestions of food choices consisting of processed "keto" type snacks as well as thousands of recipes for desserts. Instead of looking for keto breads, cookies, and cakes, and other carby foods I missed, I so prefer to simply cook some meat and/or eggs, with our without some veggies. Its so simple and any CD cravings I may get are nothing compared to keto cravings.

    • @margaretoconnor874
      @margaretoconnor874 Год назад +3

      I agree too that carnivore is easier than keto because it does tease you with all the sugar substitutes and nut flours etc. I have difficulty going all carnivore because my husband has Alzheimers and I can’t get him to give up all his carbs(1-2 beers everyday too). He does seem better when I cut the carbs for him. It’s hard having two ways of eating in the house. So happy for you in your new life. You definitely are an inspiration! Keep up the great work!

    I am a retired nurse supervisor…the first few years at a long term facility, I became despondent with all the sick, dependent elderly residents. I felt that that was my lot in life. However , I calculated in my mind that these people were only 1 percent of the population…I started working on changing my outlook…missing being outside…I started eating “healthy”. Fruits veggies very low fat meat…til my health worsened with arthritis, pain, knee replacement, thyroid goiter, falling.the more I tried to get back to active lifestyle, the more I faltered. Now no HTN meds or CRESTOR, much decreased inflammation, increased ability to move about without pain.

    It's kind of interesting that you have a 43 year old, a 65 year old and here I am in between at 55 year old. Yet we all seem to share a similar outlook on things, and attitude. Remembering how I was as a teen, always getting upset and slipping up when talking to others, and now I can talk to anyone and feel more confident. Plus look at how we have less grey hairs than others! It is going to be interesting to see what kind of results Kerry will get from his medical tests. Alex, great interview!

    So you're on to six months very soon.
    I started 5 days ago. So far, the improvements have been juuuuust a little more energy, but I am still really tired (sleep apnea and completely fried sleep circuits in my brain), and also the floaters in my eyes are gone.
    I only had detectable cravings the first two days, and after that, the old habits reminded me for a day or two, but now they seem to be gone.
    I'm only doing beef, fish, eggs, bacon and butter so far. I use a LOT of butter and I use pink Himalaya salt in my water and on the food. Ketone levels have risen from 0.5 to 1.8 mmol/L in five days. 💪💪

    I loved this video Alex and Kerry! Great questions! I have told a couple docs and one of them was not a fan, and basically recommended eating fruit. 😊 The other doc is an amazing functional med doc and she was fine knowing I ate extremely low carb. I will see how she reacts to carnivore when I see her again.

    OK, Alex looks younger than my dad, who will be 63 in December! It's so fascinating to me how nearly every carnivore I see looks younger than others their age. I'm only 34 (will be 35 in December) but am noticing any fine lines I had are nearly gone. So many people I went to school with have SO many deep wrinkles already. It's not normal!

      @mackerelgainz541 Год назад +2

      Yep. I could eat a week's worth of walnuts, pecans, and almonds in one sitting, and then follow that up with a bucket of Greek yogurt with a ton of strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries.
      That food might be healthy for someone that can control their appetite, but that's not me. I'd eat that food and then still want a steak. Only eating meat allows me to actually feel satiated, and truly know when I've eaten enough.

  • @forced4motorsports
    @forced4motorsports Год назад

    Kerry, one thing I've learned about Keto and even Ketovore is that abstainers or people who are really metabolically sick with hyperinsulinemia (and maybe other hidden issues) cannot do it. The weight just does not come off at all or you end up yo-yoing like you mentioned. I can regulate what I eat, but I've been horribly metabolically sick for 14 years and it's been tough getting even carnivore results. I'm 30 days in with ZERO improvement on 80/20 - and I mean zero. Not about weight (maybe 30lb over). Still tired, brain fog, joint pain, inflammation. The only two things that are better are my hair (slower fall) and no more IBS.
    I'm trying a fat fast this week (don't want to calorie deficit), so very little protein, maybe 60-70 grams and the rest fat to 1800-2000 cal. I've been in fight/flight for so long and my metabolism is almost nil, thus not wanting to deficit eat. The struggle continues but I won't stop. I'm committed to this way of eating for life no mater the outcome.

      I have a *LOT* of health issues and I ate strict keto for 7 years with only moderate improvement. It took a full 3 months on carnivore (and it require me to quit dairy too) to see improvement in my symptoms. I’m at 8 months now and the improvements are beginning to truly add up!!! Weight loss is still slow but the decrease in pain and other inflammatory symptoms is *SO* worth it!!

Your story WILL resonate with many who were in the same state of health that you were. Keep at it because what else would you do? Go back to the SAD way of eating? Nah. PHD is the way to go.
