I am glad to be a quiet leader! I am doing my first 24 hourfast today. The 16:8 doesn't help me. I used to eat only 1 meal a day when I was a nurse 20 years ago. I feel so much better eating carnivore!!! I never gained all of this weight until my husband convinced me to "eat healthy" and eliminate meat and we were having more vegetables. I could hardly walk with all of the inflamation. I thought I was coming to the end of life at 65 yrs old. Then I saw these videos! You guys have been my life changer! I am scared to go off of it for fear of becoming inflamed again!
I have made a few medical professionals mad because I refused to except their medical recommendations on diet and health, etc. Research is so important. I knew about Dr Adkins back in the 60's/70's. There were other resources on low-carb eating back then, but kept on the back shelf. Those professionals took a beating for trying to help back then. Now, you stepped up to the plate to help people. Thank you!
I did the Adkins back in the early 90's. When from 260 to 180 and stayed there for about 3years. Life, doctors convince me to change back to plant based diet. Had forgotten how much better I felt on the Adkins.
@@jimstaffiles7497 I also Sud Atkins around 2006. I was dumb and just turned it on Luke a switch and felt terrible. Gave up in about 10 days. Dr Berry and the Carnivore channels gave me enough info to do this right. Probably should have read the Atkins book...
I’m now instinctively aware of every carbohydrate and drop of seed oil that gets past my lips. I transformed my body and improved my health and appearance so much starting 2 years ago when I was 65. Thank you Dr. Berry and the entire community of health care professionals on You Tube for the most important factual information on the Proper Human Diet.
Glad to hear I’m not the only late-comer to eating the Proper Human Diet! I started 6 months before my 60th birthday as a full Carnivore and I haven’t looked back. I broke off the rear view mirror and threw it out the window. The changes in my life were so transformative. Huge shift in my mental acuity, consistent energy level, strength, the clearing of health issues, and feeling like I’m 25 again. I have no desire to cheat off of the Carnivore diet or go back to that sick S.A.D. lifestyle ever again.
I’m 44 and need to lose 100 pounds and cure my brain fog. I started today. I have two little ones at home all day while my husband works (the brain fog and lethargy is really terrible) and my father lives with us (he’s 71). He’s always been active, but this decline when he retired 5 years ago, and truth be told - he had pneumonia a little over a year ago and it did a number on him. He’s agreed to start it with me today! He was on Atkins in the late 90’s and stayed on maintenance for about 20 years. My dad’s such an awesome guy and I really want to see him reclaim some of his life.
@@katiejon17 Good luck katiejon17 !!!! You be the example for your father. Just keep dialing back on ALL the carbs. You may pee a lot at first and I had dizzy spells for a few days. Measure yourselves at first since weights sometimes can slow or fluctuate. Don’t eat if you are not hungry, never drink any calories, throw out every drop of seed oils, empty your pantry of every GD box, bag, bottle if it has been processed, flavored, has any kind of fructose in it. Accept the fact that sugar is hidden behind 165 other synonyms. Your goal is to transform your body into a fat burner, not a carb burner. Be prepared for your energy levels and moods to go thru the roof!! You’ve got to follow the advice of Dr. Berry and your goal is actually to be metabolically healthy. Keep watching his videos, even more than once sometimes. Get the blood tests that Dr. Berry mentions in numerous videos to measure your progress.

I drive truck and have for 22 years. I use resistance bands, kettlebells, also do calisthenics and ride bicycle. You can absolutely exercise as a trucker. You can also cook. Anyone who says they can't is making excuses.
I have been in the McDonalds meat plants where the burgers are made. That is some of the best and freshest, healthiest pure beef meat you will ever eat. The problem with McD's is all the crap they wrap around the burger meat.

So glad to hear you're focusing on truckers! Got my CDL in 2002. In 2008 I developed severe symptoms of a mystery autoimmune condition. I spent 8 years looking for relief. No success...until I went from atkins to keto to the PHD where I am finally found some relief last year. Thank you for being so vocal and courageous.
I went to see my doctor today...he is a colon and rectal surgeon. I had surgery for colon cancer last year (it was metastatic) in March and I'm due to have a colonoscopy soon so I went to see him about that. He asked if I've been having any issues, how have I been feeling? I told him my most recent concern was feeling stomach cramps that felt like I got punched in the stomach and the pain would last for days and was very debilitating, I couldn't do anything. I also told him I started a low-carb diet. He jumps in before I finished my statement and says that the diet is what caused the cramps. I was going to tell him I haven't felt those cramps since I started eating low-carb and I feel great on this diet, but I just left it alone. This is the same doctor that tried to convince me to do chemo for at least 3 months when I refused that treatment. I'm sorry, but all these doctors are full of shit! If I would have gone along with his and my oncologist advise to do chemotherapy, I would have potentially harmed my healthy cells and organs for nothing. So far my markers are good and I am being proactive with diet and fasting. I feel very appreciative to my digestive health doctor for removing all that cancerous junk out of my body, but the BS..is too much.
@@veganix6757 no, that's not for me. Since I was a kid, fruits and veggies usually gave me stomach issues. And when my groceries are low and I don't have anything to cook for dinner the first thing I crave is beef. I'll do water fasting for the cancer, but I'm not going vegan. I rather do Ketovore.
@@veganix6757 great ! Carry on being a vegan ! Read the studies daily ! You are not convincing anyone who is carnivore. We are not a study. We are living proof. All vegans have serious health issues eventually. You are all the living proof.
@@veganix6757 A vegan diet is high in carbohydrates. Carbs turn into glucose in digestion. Cancer can only survive on glucose. Why would anyone want to commit slow suicide this way. NO carb, high fat, medium protein is the way to go.
Maggie, Look for Dr. Dawn Lemanne - 'Carbohydrate Restriction to Enhance Cancer Therapy', on RUclips. She gives a brilliant talk on how carbohydrate restriction can help with cancer. Her practice is in Ashland, Oregon.
Back in 2017, I was 325 pounds at 5'11and went all meat meals first part of 2017 one meal a day 2500 meal a day with water and the last six months of 2017 keto meals and still one meal a day after that. New year 2018 weighs 140 pounds. Now before all of this I have suffered comfort eating overindulgence of carbs and sugar and found out before weight loss I was also lactose intolerant so I was in terrible shape and I was not healthy enough to do anything. Now I walk at least 12,000 to 15,000 a day and always lift heavy things and if it wasn't Joe Rogan podcast and Tim Ferriss books and podcast. Helped me a lot to getting information to lose weight and also to mention I cut out sugar and carbs and dairy and Seed Oils completely removed from house. Beef tallow with eggs and mostly used for my cooking needs, now it's not for everyone but I will say I went hard into this because in my words "I was tired of being a fat fuck" again my words. So find food that works for you and makes you have energy to do things. I substitute coffee for soda, I substitute beef tallow for all my cooking needs and salt and pepper that's it, also I drink structured water daily. May you be happy and May You be free of Suffering, Take Care Cheers!
Dawna Morris im an OTR Truck Driver, I do carnivore every day. I shop and cook for myself. Not only didnt gain weight but I've lost weight on the road. Its doable.
Did Keto a couple of years, fell off the wagon, back on. So, thought I'd get ready for the cycle season and start Carnivore today. That trip through McDonalds video gave me the idea Dr. Berry, and the fact you have done so well.
I'm an OTR driver and I have revised diabetes and lost 50 lbs doing ketovore. Being a trucker it is often difficult to find a grocery store that will let truckers park and have no choice to result to boiled eggs and hotdogs. The majority of truckstops only sell fast food and junk but it can be done just got to make up your mind and do it. 29 years OTR and didn't realize how poor my diet was until I started dieting. I look back now and can't believe how much garbage and poison I was putting in my body.
My husband is a trucker and I food prep for him, he’s gone 5 days at a time. He has a small refrigerator and a plug in food warmer. He snacks on hb eggs, and beef sticks, but takes egg/meat bake, ribs, pot roast, etc.
I'm 77, 78 in April, and in excellent health, according to my primary care physician (for about 20 years), blood work and the way I feel. I told my doctor during a routine visit last Monday (6 days ago) that I was thinking about the Carnivore diet, and asked his opinion. He said that it's a good diet that has helped lots and lots of people, and he is fine with me giving it a try. His only proviso was that if I stayed with it, be sure to let him know my results, he's very interested. This morning my weight was 8 pounds less than my weight at the doctor's visit Monday, 6 days ago, from 216 to 208 (I'm 5' 10"). I've been walking a mile every other day, and continue to do so. I'm still feeling great. I'm using my crockpot to prepare stew meat, "taco meat" (thin sliced flank steak chopped into small pieces) and chuck roast. I'm expecting my weight to fluctuate and I'm OK with that. My diet before was not necessarily low carb, but it was low in fiber, and I haven't noticed any difference in my bowel movements other than less frequent.
I’m an anti-drug pharmacist. I’m working on turning around my type ii diabetes. My CGM indicates perfect BG from day 1 of carnivore diet that began last Monday . Thanks for all you do to help spread diet and lifestyle info!
I've lost 55 pounds, so when I had my most recent visit with my skeptical FP, he said that HE has decided to cut all sugar and carbs out of HIS diet. It's a start! You can't argue with success!
Following the usda guidelines bought me 2 stents. Now, on carnivore/ketovore I’m down 40lbs and my labs are the best they’ve ever been. Screw Harvard and tufts. They’re just pissed because there’s No Carnivore lobbyist trying to buy them off
I love what you’re doing Dr. Barry hold your head high I have to take my husband’s vitals daily because of a double lung transplant so I take my own everything you’ve told me to do following your advice has brought down my high blood pressure my 7.3 sugars are down to 4.7 and I feel like I’m 20 again I’m 59 I tried keto. But I am one of these people who can only have about 10 carbs to stay in ketosis and I spend those on my eggs and a bit of cheese I have for obesity for 50 years and then 315 pounds at my highest I am still fighting the battle but through your videos I am learning to love myself and do what’s right for my body thank you for standing up for us
Thank you for putting this I formation out there - I've spent the last 2 years doing everything diet and health wise that I said I'd never do, and I'm healthier than ever. I started IF, then began to cut out refined carbs, and after having a plate of pasta a couple of weeks ago and having a visible inflammatory reaction (and feeling like heck warmed over for 3 days) I'm wading more into ketovore territory.
Thanks for the live video, even though I watched it on replay. U tube is the only “social media” I tune into , so appreciate you doing it on this platform. Thank you
Dr. Berry, you mentioned two things that made me happy (well everything you said was helpful!). First, you mentioned Paleomedicina and I just began working with them to shrink my breast cancer. Also, you mentioned inflamed Eustachian tubes. I got Bells Palsy in 2014 and my Eustachian tubes have never recovered on the Bell’s palsy side. My face never totally recovered and often feels tight. My ear does not function properly. I started my Keto journey in 2021 when I felt my worst. Took a few detours with GAPS diet and trying to digest fat and meat since I was vegan 25 years and vegetarian a total of 32 years. My Keto started humming Fall 2022. I’ve done lots of prolonged water fasting, intermittent fasting, and the supplement Tudca helped me a ton. I raise my own meat now on a small farm and am doing the strict Paleomedicina diet. My Hashimotos disappeared with Keto and I lost 50 lbs. I feel the best I’ve felt my entire life despite the Cancer. Do you have any ideas about my Eustachian tubes and Bells Palsy? Thanks for everything!!
I learned that about Vitamin D not being absorbed as well by obese people during Covid. It made sense that so many obese people were having difficulty with Covid, because they were deficient in Vitamin D. Their fat was absorbing it, and it wasn't availble for their immune systems. I began taking 15000 IU every day because I was working remotely and didn't get outside in the sun, at all! Even after several months of that my Vid D level was still only 43! I've dialed it back, but still take 10000 IU every day.
I would have a baby checked for autism if they have constipation at an early age. My granddaughter suffered from constipation even on breast milk as a newborn, found out later she was autistic, and still has digestive problems at 11 years old. Digestive issues are common in autistic kids.
In five months I lost 50 pounds..by the 6th month I had 20 people doing your bbb and e .... Hello grandma berry,and the little ones, not to forget the rest of the family. Hussar!!!!!!!
I'm glad you're now interested in truck drivers! My husband is a truck driver and went carnivore (lazy carnivore😞 ) 3 years agp and lost alot of weight & felt much better but fell off the wagon but I'll trying to get him to decide to do it again. Thanks again!!
I discovered by accident recently that I have acid reflux. Suffered for years and thought it was food allergies, I take a daily tonic of ACV, lemon juice, ginger and cinnamon with water! Woohoo, the pain is finally gone! I had too low of acid in my stomach. High fat carnivore was really jacking me up and I got mad enough to do research. I know we don’t want to unnecessarily add ACV or lemon juice but this ole gal is thrilled! ♥️🙏🏻
I have been on Keto/carnivore for 3 years. Lost 40 lbs. A1C was 5.9 now its 5.2. Triglycerides were 450 now they are 85. Total cholesterol was way down...Doctor told me every visit I was a rock star because of my blood work was awesome....then I had my 4th in my life CAC Score. It's a CT scan of your heart checking for calcium in your arteries. Before keto I had a 24% percent yearly increase in my CAC Score. Eating all that Saturated fat for 3 years was making my blood labs look great...but it was killing me. I had another scan last week and my score shot up to a 45% annual increase. Got a score of 226. 2 years ago it was 108. 4 years ago it was 56. If you do keto maybe only do it for a year max. I'm still eating low carb...but now it's low fat also. This means I increase my carbs but eat carbs that have fiber also. Sucks as I loved eating bacon, butter and beef everyday.
I have been healthy except for four adults passing back and forth the Carteret crud since mid January. I love beef, butter,bacon and eggs. I live inSourh Eastern NC
I’ve been doing Keto, IF for over 5 years now and lost 80lbs, reversed my fatty liver, all my health problems went away, my bp is 127/81, Im starting to lean towards carnivore and found Im feeling even better!!
For anyone that has used antibiotics during this horrible cold/flu season please look into Colloidal Silver supplement. Antibiotics were not killing mine completely this season.
Hi Dr Berry. My husband is a truck driver 59 yr old and he started carnivore Jan 1. So far he lost 10 lbs. He is type 2 diabetic and has high blood pressure. So we are excited to see him reverse his diabetes someday. He doesn't snack anymore esp junk food and feels stronger and sleeps better
After a year of intermittent fasting and low carb diet, My type 2 diabetes reversed. I stopped taking my meds and started eating LCHF. my physician suggested I was cheating somehow and insisted I should still take Metformin.
In one video Dr Berry said the best fats are from animal such as beef tallow or butter; next best are the monounsaturated fats such nut oils, EVOO, coconut oil. Worst are all the polyunsaturated fats such as canola oil
Man I wish I hadn't missed this! I would have told you all my victories during the stream! I'd done a paleo keto diet in the beginning with fruit, my weight went up 10 pounds (it was much needed) and have kept it steady since going 99% carnivore. Situational depression gone, anemia treated and constipation finally getting better after what I assume was caused by early stage gastroparesis.
I have a recommendation: I read Lies that the Doctor tells you. Dr. Berry should write another book where he shows the Harvard or government studies, if possible put a copy or references of the study and discuss it. That will give people that want to see detail can have better views and can take his own conclusions.
I tried ghee before and couldn't stand the smell so I don't use it. Sometimes cooking with butter smells bad to me too...like hot milk smell... can't stand that smell, but both butter and milk make food taste delicious 😋.
@@MaggieLoveMTC Try tallow. Many people don't like the smell or taste of butter in their food. Tallow has more of a 'fatty meat cooking' smell. Also save the rendered fat from cooking bacon. It flavors what otherwise may be a slightly bland dish.
1:02:33... Tyler540, you live near some of the best meat in the country. Look up Polyface Farm and Joel Salatin, and if you can't find beef liver in a store, I'm certain you can get some there.
I had a talk with Dr. Lustig about the fiber question at a low carb conference last year. I told him I that, while I agree with him on most things, I disagree on this point. I sort of verbally backed him up against the wall and asked for proof. It basically devolved down to, "Well, everybody KNOWS that fiber is good for you....." Zero actual evidence.
Going to keep my coffee. I have gone without before. It helps my ADHD brain and my asthma and COPD by opening up my bronchial passages and increasing the blood flow of my frontal lobe of my brain. I am using cold press coffee with some Whole whipping cream which is almost 0 carbs. No sugar of course.
I had it in my head that I was going to allow myself one dessert each month. The only awful cravings I have had, since starting carnivore at Christmas, was the week following this dessert. I felt like an absolute crack head wanting to sneak more sugar. I have not had a single low blood sugar crash since starting this way of eating, I have had low blood sugar everyday if not twice a day my entire life! And down 12 lbs with about 10 to go!
I would like to hear a response to the more specific claim that fiber feeds the microbes thus preventing them from devouring the mucin and damaging the gut lining.
If this theory were true, the human race would not have survived the ice ages. The microbiome is a reflection of what you have been eating, not prescriptive of what you should eat.
Newly carnivore. My worrisome hair loss is gone on Day 3. Reflux is gone instantly. I am on OMAD high calorie, high protein, high fat x 4 days. Switching it up today to high fat, moderate protein. Because the high protein was triggering my insulin.
Dr. Berry, I like your ideal and am following your method! I have been in pre-diabetes condition for last 6 years. I’m working hard to try to bring it down. I have tried WFPBD without animal protein, but i am hungry all the time. I raised couple questions in a different comment and would like to hear from you. Thank you! - Jackie

I went to see my doctor today...he is a colon and rectal surgeon. I had surgery for colon cancer last year (it was metastatic) in March and I'm due to have a colonoscopy soon so I went to see him about that. He asked if I've been having any issues, how have I been feeling? I told him my most recent concern was feeling stomach cramps that felt like I got punched in the stomach and the pain would last for days and was very debilitating, I couldn't do anything. I also told him I started a low-carb diet. He jumps in before I finished my statement and says that the diet is what caused the cramps. I was going to tell him I haven't felt those cramps since I started eating low-carb and I feel great on this diet, but I just left it alone. This is the same doctor that tried to convince me to do chemo for at least 3 months when I refused that treatment. I'm sorry, but all these doctors are full of shit! If I would have gone along with his and my oncologist advise to do chemotherapy, I would have potentially harmed my healthy cells and organs for nothing. So far my markers are good and I am being proactive with diet and fasting. I feel very appreciative to my digestive health doctor for removing all that cancerous junk out of my body, but the BS..is too much.
Sounds like its time to fire that colo-rectal doc... cause it sounds like he needs and anal-cranial ectomy.
@@veganix6757 no, that's not for me. Since I was a kid, fruits and veggies usually gave me stomach issues. And when my groceries are low and I don't have anything to cook for dinner the first thing I crave is beef. I'll do water fasting for the cancer, but I'm not going vegan. I rather do Ketovore.
@@veganix6757 great ! Carry on being a vegan ! Read the studies daily ! You are not convincing anyone who is carnivore. We are not a study. We are living proof. All vegans have serious health issues eventually. You are all the living proof.
@@veganix6757 A vegan diet is high in carbohydrates. Carbs turn into glucose in digestion. Cancer can only survive on glucose. Why would anyone want to commit slow suicide this way. NO carb, high fat, medium protein is the way to go.
Maggie,
Look for Dr. Dawn Lemanne - 'Carbohydrate Restriction to Enhance Cancer Therapy', on RUclips. She gives a brilliant talk on how carbohydrate restriction can help with cancer.
Her practice is in Ashland, Oregon.
Thanks Dr. Berry! I love these live Q&A videos even if I don’t get to them until months or years after they ran. 🤗
Back in 2017, I was 325 pounds at 5'11and went all meat meals first part of 2017 one meal a day 2500 meal a day with water and the last six months of 2017 keto meals and still one meal a day after that. New year 2018 weighs 140 pounds. Now before all of this I have suffered comfort eating overindulgence of carbs and sugar and found out before weight loss I was also lactose intolerant so I was in terrible shape and I was not healthy enough to do anything. Now I walk at least 12,000 to 15,000 a day and always lift heavy things and if it wasn't Joe Rogan podcast and Tim Ferriss books and podcast. Helped me a lot to getting information to lose weight and also to mention I cut out sugar and carbs and dairy and Seed Oils completely removed from house. Beef tallow with eggs and mostly used for my cooking needs, now it's not for everyone but I will say I went hard into this because in my words "I was tired of being a fat fuck" again my words. So find food that works for you and makes you have energy to do things. I substitute coffee for soda, I substitute beef tallow for all my cooking needs and salt and pepper that's it, also I drink structured water daily. May you be happy and May You be free of Suffering, Take Care Cheers!
I have done Keto at the truck stop... At Walmart, Aldi is freakin' amazing for reasonably priced.eats, including lamb!!
Dawna Morris im an OTR Truck Driver, I do carnivore every day. I shop and cook for myself. Not only didnt gain weight but I've lost weight on the road. Its doable.
Did Keto a couple of years, fell off the wagon, back on. So, thought I'd get ready for the cycle season and start Carnivore today. That trip through McDonalds video gave me the idea Dr. Berry, and the fact you have done so well.
👍🏻
I'm an OTR driver and I have revised diabetes and lost 50 lbs doing ketovore. Being a trucker it is often difficult to find a grocery store that will let truckers park and have no choice to result to boiled eggs and hotdogs. The majority of truckstops only sell fast food and junk but it can be done just got to make up your mind and do it.
29 years OTR and didn't realize how poor my diet was until I started dieting. I look back now and can't believe how much garbage and poison I was putting in my body.
You can get Quarter Pounder paddys at McDonald's. Order 7 of them, it's a great deal
I'm not otr but make deliveries to job sites everyday on the road 8 plus hours a day I've been eating pepperoni and cheese mostly through out the day
My husband is a trucker and I food prep for him, he’s gone 5 days at a time. He has a small refrigerator and a plug in food warmer. He snacks on hb eggs, and beef sticks, but takes egg/meat bake, ribs, pot roast, etc.
Had an appointment with a new PCP on Valentine's day. He is backing me on the PHD. Huzzah!!
Ahh I stopped coffee too! I started fixing a hot cup of water,mineral drops,iodine drops,and butter and a little salt! Yummy!
I'm 77, 78 in April, and in excellent health, according to my primary care physician (for about 20 years), blood work and the way I feel. I told my doctor during a routine visit last Monday (6 days ago) that I was thinking about the Carnivore diet, and asked his opinion. He said that it's a good diet that has helped lots and lots of people, and he is fine with me giving it a try. His only proviso was that if I stayed with it, be sure to let him know my results, he's very interested.
This morning my weight was 8 pounds less than my weight at the doctor's visit Monday, 6 days ago, from 216 to 208 (I'm 5' 10"). I've been walking a mile every other day, and continue to do so. I'm still feeling great. I'm using my crockpot to prepare stew meat, "taco meat" (thin sliced flank steak chopped into small pieces) and chuck roast.
I'm expecting my weight to fluctuate and I'm OK with that. My diet before was not necessarily low carb, but it was low in fiber, and I haven't noticed any difference in my bowel movements other than less frequent.
I'd been wondering about the new year date on old videos. Thank you for clarifying that.
Dr. Berry...I swear you look younger and younger every week!!
Ketovore now for four years. Still getting my menopausal hormones optimized but very happy and healthy at 58 and 11 months old
@@veganix6757 Please stop it, vegan diet is nutritionally inadequate.
I’m an anti-drug pharmacist. I’m working on turning around my type ii diabetes. My CGM indicates perfect BG from day 1 of carnivore diet that began last Monday . Thanks for all you do to help spread diet and lifestyle info!
I did opposite of standard diabetic advice and blew my diabetic nurse away with my reversal of t1 symptoms/numbers.
You had me at "try to be pithy and succinct without being laconic.' Priceless.
I've lost 55 pounds, so when I had my most recent visit with my skeptical FP, he said that HE has decided to cut all sugar and carbs out of HIS diet. It's a start! You can't argue with success!
Thank you dr. Ken Berry! Love these q and A's. You and dr. Hyman are my health gods- please keep up the great work, really love you man!
Following the usda guidelines bought me 2 stents. Now, on carnivore/ketovore I’m down 40lbs and my labs are the best they’ve ever been. Screw Harvard and tufts. They’re just pissed because there’s No Carnivore lobbyist trying to buy them off
I love what you’re doing Dr. Barry hold your head high I have to take my husband’s vitals daily because of a double lung transplant so I take my own everything you’ve told me to do following your advice has brought down my high blood pressure my 7.3 sugars are down to 4.7 and I feel like I’m 20 again I’m 59 I tried keto. But I am one of these people who can only have about 10 carbs to stay in ketosis and I spend those on my eggs and a bit of cheese I have for obesity for 50 years and then 315 pounds at my highest I am still fighting the battle but through your videos I am learning to love myself and do what’s right for my body thank you for standing up for us
Thank you for putting this I formation out there - I've spent the last 2 years doing everything diet and health wise that I said I'd never do, and I'm healthier than ever. I started IF, then began to cut out refined carbs, and after having a plate of pasta a couple of weeks ago and having a visible inflammatory reaction (and feeling like heck warmed over for 3 days) I'm wading more into ketovore territory.
Thanks for the live video, even though I watched it on replay. U tube is the only “social media” I tune into , so appreciate you doing it on this platform. Thank you
Dr. Berry, you mentioned two things that made me happy (well everything you said was helpful!). First, you mentioned Paleomedicina and I just began working with them to shrink my breast cancer. Also, you mentioned inflamed Eustachian tubes. I got Bells Palsy in 2014 and my Eustachian tubes have never recovered on the Bell’s palsy side. My face never totally recovered and often feels tight. My ear does not function properly. I started my Keto journey in 2021 when I felt my worst. Took a few detours with GAPS diet and trying to digest fat and meat since I was vegan 25 years and vegetarian a total of 32 years. My Keto started humming Fall 2022. I’ve done lots of prolonged water fasting, intermittent fasting, and the supplement Tudca helped me a ton. I raise my own meat now on a small farm and am doing the strict Paleomedicina diet. My Hashimotos disappeared with Keto and I lost 50 lbs. I feel the best I’ve felt my entire life despite the Cancer. Do you have any ideas about my Eustachian tubes and Bells Palsy? Thanks for everything!!
I learned that about Vitamin D not being absorbed as well by obese people during Covid. It made sense that so many obese people were having difficulty with Covid, because they were deficient in Vitamin D. Their fat was absorbing it, and it wasn't availble for their immune systems. I began taking 15000 IU every day because I was working remotely and didn't get outside in the sun, at all! Even after several months of that my Vid D level was still only 43! I've dialed it back, but still take 10000 IU every day.
Another point: COVID-19 feeds on sugar like many cancers do.
I’m 100 pounds overweight and take 10,000IU’s vitamin D daily. My PCP about hit the ceiling when I told her. My labs came back... and I was low.
Thanks for all the great info about gaining and maintaining good health!
I would have a baby checked for autism if they have constipation at an early age. My granddaughter suffered from constipation even on breast milk as a newborn, found out later she was autistic, and still has digestive problems at 11 years old. Digestive issues are common in autistic kids.
Thank you for all the work that you have been doing, Doc. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
My husband and I have been following you and Neisha for some years now. Awesome awesome job both of you bless you. You have helped us so much.❤
In five months I lost 50 pounds..by the 6th month I had 20 people doing your bbb and e .... Hello grandma berry,and the little ones, not to forget the rest of the family. Hussar!!!!!!!
Keep it up, Dr. Berry! 👏👏👏
Your Amazing Doctor, Thank you!
I'm glad you're now interested in truck drivers! My husband is a truck driver and went carnivore (lazy carnivore😞 ) 3 years agp and lost alot of weight & felt much better but fell off the wagon but I'll trying to get him to decide to do it again. Thanks again!!
Truckers move America!❤
I discovered by accident recently that I have acid reflux.
Suffered for years and thought it was food allergies, I take a daily tonic of ACV, lemon juice, ginger and cinnamon with water! Woohoo, the pain is finally gone! I had too low of acid in my stomach.
High fat carnivore was really jacking me up and I got mad enough to do research.
I know we don’t want to unnecessarily add ACV or lemon juice but this ole gal is thrilled! ♥️🙏🏻
I have been on Keto/carnivore for 3 years. Lost 40 lbs. A1C was 5.9 now its 5.2. Triglycerides were 450 now they are 85. Total cholesterol was way down...Doctor told me every visit I was a rock star because of my blood work was awesome....then I had my 4th in my life CAC Score. It's a CT scan of your heart checking for calcium in your arteries. Before keto I had a 24% percent yearly increase in my CAC Score. Eating all that Saturated fat for 3 years was making my blood labs look great...but it was killing me. I had another scan last week and my score shot up to a 45% annual increase. Got a score of 226. 2 years ago it was 108. 4 years ago it was 56. If you do keto maybe only do it for a year max. I'm still eating low carb...but now it's low fat also. This means I increase my carbs but eat carbs that have fiber also. Sucks as I loved eating bacon, butter and beef everyday.
Dr. Berry...can you please address this ? ☝️
So what was making your calcium go up?
Were you taking supplements during this period?
That's awesome! I been on carnivore, not enough money n doing ketovore now
We’re you having any type of sugars?
Appreciate your streams!
I have been healthy except for four adults passing back and forth the Carteret crud since mid January. I love beef, butter,bacon and eggs. I live inSourh Eastern NC
Thanks! Rob & Sue in Harbor Town, Memphis, Tennessee
Thank you Rob!!
@@KenDBerryMD You're welcome. We love your videos.
Glad your doing that for my fellow truckers.
The song is cute a few times but gets a bit old, jmho Thanks for all that you do!
Thanks my sauger level was8.9
Now4.8
You and Neisha rock!! Thank you for no BS nutrition advice.
I’ve been doing Keto, IF for over 5 years now and lost 80lbs, reversed my fatty liver, all my health problems went away, my bp is 127/81, Im starting to lean towards carnivore and found Im feeling even better!!
For anyone that has used antibiotics during this horrible cold/flu season please look into Colloidal Silver supplement. Antibiotics were not killing mine completely this season.
Colds and flus are viruses. Antibiotics only work on bacterial infections. Colloidal silver is toxic and dangerous.
Thanks for that. Happy days.
Hi Dr Berry. My husband is a truck driver 59 yr old and he started carnivore Jan 1. So far he lost 10 lbs. He is type 2 diabetic and has high blood pressure. So we are excited to see him reverse his diabetes someday. He doesn't snack anymore esp junk food and feels stronger and sleeps better
Didn’t hear the song ..but love the tshirt!!
I so wish I could have been on the live. Thank you Dr. Ken for doing these. One day I will get my question in. 🧡
About the song: Wasn't it written to the tune of "Waiting On the World to Change" by Bob Myer? Seems appropriate, doesn't it?
The PHD has changed my life
Like your shirt 😃 carole from Trois-Rivières in Québec
I enjoyed your video.
I am 86yrs on intermittent fasting 16 hrs. Low carb. I love farro. That is the thing I love is it good
After a year of intermittent fasting and low carb diet, My type 2 diabetes reversed. I stopped taking my meds and started eating LCHF. my physician suggested I was cheating somehow and insisted I should still take Metformin.
Beef, Butter, Bacon and Eggs are a large part of my Daily Diet. 😉👍🏼
We can all learn something new.
In one video Dr Berry said the best fats are from animal such as beef tallow or butter; next best are the monounsaturated fats such nut oils, EVOO, coconut oil. Worst are all the polyunsaturated fats such as canola oil
Surprise. Came home to find this video! Thanks!!
Man I wish I hadn't missed this! I would have told you all my victories during the stream!
I'd done a paleo keto diet in the beginning with fruit, my weight went up 10 pounds (it was much needed) and have kept it steady since going 99% carnivore. Situational depression gone, anemia treated and constipation finally getting better after what I assume was caused by early stage gastroparesis.
I have a recommendation: I read Lies that the Doctor tells you. Dr. Berry should write another book where he shows the Harvard or government studies, if possible put a copy or references of the study and discuss it. That will give people that want to see detail can have better views and can take his own conclusions.
I used gee for the first time this week to cook pork chops. The smell was not pleasing at All🤢. But….the taste was AMAZING !😅😅😅❤
I tried ghee before and couldn't stand the smell so I don't use it. Sometimes cooking with butter smells bad to me too...like hot milk smell... can't stand that smell, but both butter and milk make food taste delicious 😋.
Ghee...East Indians use it all the time, I learned it from a friend from Pakistan...has a high smoke level...
@@MaggieLoveMTC Try tallow. Many people don't like the smell or taste of butter in their food. Tallow has more of a 'fatty meat cooking' smell. Also save the rendered fat from cooking bacon. It flavors what otherwise may be a slightly bland dish.
Thank you for sharing your video it is very helpful.
We love your help and information Ken. Thanks.
Thank You! Really I enjoyed the video!
That poor statute in the upper left hand corner reminds me of the head in vice scene in the movie Casino
You Rock Dr. Berry 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I would love to see you and Bret Weinstein discuss evolutionary biology!
Your shirt is GREAT! LOVE IT!❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏✝️✝️✝️✝️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Can you have cheese on the the carnivore diet
Love you and Neisha..
1:02:33... Tyler540, you live near some of the best meat in the country. Look up Polyface Farm and Joel Salatin, and if you can't find beef liver in a store, I'm certain you can get some there.
❤ the shirt!
Thanks, Dr Berry.
I had a talk with Dr. Lustig about the fiber question at a low carb conference last year. I told him I that, while I agree with him on most things, I disagree on this point. I sort of verbally backed him up against the wall and asked for proof. It basically devolved down to, "Well, everybody KNOWS that fiber is good for you....." Zero actual evidence.
Love that Song
Going to keep my coffee. I have gone without before. It helps my ADHD brain and my asthma and COPD by opening up my bronchial passages and increasing the blood flow of my frontal lobe of my brain. I am using cold press coffee with some Whole whipping cream which is almost 0 carbs. No sugar of course.
I found beef liver in the freezer section at my local grocery store.
Thank you
I had it in my head that I was going to allow myself one dessert each month. The only awful cravings I have had, since starting carnivore at Christmas, was the week following this dessert. I felt like an absolute crack head wanting to sneak more sugar. I have not had a single low blood sugar crash since starting this way of eating, I have had low blood sugar everyday if not twice a day my entire life! And down 12 lbs with about 10 to go!
I would like to hear a response to the more specific claim that fiber feeds the microbes thus preventing them from devouring the mucin and damaging the gut lining.
Thank you for this question AND the way you phrased it.🙏
If this theory were true, the human race would not have survived the ice ages. The microbiome is a reflection of what you have been eating, not prescriptive of what you should eat.
Thanks, Doc.
A1C with reticulocytes count for long term carnivores to see if "elevated" A1C is a sign of "diabetes type II"
Newly carnivore.
My worrisome hair loss is gone on Day 3. Reflux is gone instantly.
I am on OMAD high calorie, high protein, high fat x 4 days. Switching it up today to high fat, moderate protein. Because the high protein was triggering my insulin.
I'm a month in but I had a few cheat days but still down 10lbs but bp is still high I started at the gym today though
Congrats on the 10! 🎉
@@dharmadreams4586 thank u
Liver is sold in Walmart it's in the frozen section.
It’s also sold in the chicken meat section at Walmart.
Beef and chicken livers.
Check your Latino butcher for liver and real lard
Dr. Berry, I like your ideal and am following your method! I have been in pre-diabetes condition for last 6 years. I’m working hard to try to bring it down. I have tried WFPBD without animal protein, but i am hungry all the time. I raised couple questions in a different comment and would like to hear from you. Thank you! - Jackie
