      I believe you dabbled in the carnivore diet. Do you now think that you need vegetables for probiotics? I'm asking because my husband is 7 months into his carnivore diet and all of his auto immune conditions have cleared up and he has lost almost 30 lbs, is stronger at the gym and has never felt better. So I am trying to wrap my brain around why he seems to be doing great but his autoimmune conditions should be full blown because his gut bacteria should have long eating his mucus protecting his intestines. I have crohns disease and have done the carnivore diet twice for 30 days each and I didn't flare up and my other autoimmune issues improved. Just like everyone here, I am trying to navigate all of this information from you, low carb down under drs and speakers, Mike mutzel dave feldman, Shaun Baker and many more. And of course make sure we are getting healthier rather than unknowingly sicker.

    My microbiome was perfectly happy getting their nourishment of butyrate directly from my bloodstream. You don't need to fill your intestines with fibrous food you can't digest. We have a very small cecum and a useless appendix that aren't designed to be fermentation chambers like ruminant animals are.
    Carnivores have no issue with constipation. As long as there is sufficient fat in the diet, the stool is soft and passes with ease. There is no need for a single gram of fiber in our diet.

      @@SulthanMuhammad she’s saying that, but it might not be true in all cases.
      I suspect Pat is taking issue with the assertion that sufficient fibre is NECESSARY to maintain flora. Thus theoretically sparing the mucus layer and preventing gut content coming in contact with internal surfaces that trigger an immune response in which the internals become collateral damage.
      Many 100% carnivore (~0% fibre) are not finding this theory to be borne out in practice (unless there is an animal derived fibre substitute not yet accounted for).
      As per the last section of the lecture the devil may be in the details of the exact diet.
      Which is best of well managed some fibre vs well managed no fibre, and is it depending on the exact microbial spectrum and the individual?
      Possibly the sensible approach is to bias the diet to enable microbes that won’t resort to cannibalise the mucus layer that go ahead and outcompete those that would cannibalise: before going to zero fibre.
      Or at least understand and minimise components of the diet that might be present and promote an immune response during any mucus depletion phase.
      Carnivore seems to present little challenge that results in an immune response. Transitioning to or from, probably requires a robust strategy to avoid any inadequate defence condition that cascades toward bowel illness.

    About a third of the way thru this vid I realized that she was not talking about humans. She's talking about gorillas. We have a carnivore digestive system. Our stomach is an acid wash meant to kill all bacteria in the swallowed meat. Our system is not meant to ferment fiber and turn it into saturated fat. That's what herbivores do, and a gorilla is a herbivore with one small difference. Herbivores have an alkaline wash meant to kill only some of the bacteria, because they need the rest for microbial fermentation of fiber, since most of their energy comes from saturated fat converted from fiber. Gorillas have a higher acidic level in their alkaline, because, being omnivores, they include bugs with their salads and fruits. Humans do not have an omnivore pH wash in the stomach. Our pH is 63 times greater than the gorilla pH. The reason our pH has remained so high despite millennia of plant inclusion in our diet (which causes all of our innate diseases) is our brain, its size and energy needs. We can't afford to be omnivores if we want to remain homo sapien and not become homo dumbo. We have no business putting fiber in our stomach. It ferments because fiber, and all plant life, is fundamentally sugar. We get the glycogen we need from a carnivore diet. Added sugars and carbs (and carbs are practically all sugar) are toxic to us. So ignore this girl's talk unless you're a gorilla or would like to be one.

      Then can you please explain why so many studies find fiber to be very beneficial? Also it is fairly well established that we do have some light fermentation that occurs in our GI tract, but this is dependent on what you eat and the bacteria that are present.
      Also, there are some great studies comparing out GI tract to other predators that find most predators that eat meat have short GI tracts and creatures that eat mostly plants have long GI tracts to allow time for fermentation. Humans fall into the latter. Scientists are finding more and more that our ancestors most likely ate tons of leafy plants with occasional meat or dairy that they could acquire(personally I think they had to eat what was available to them which doesn't prove what the best diet is). While nothing is super conclusive yet, it seems safe to say our system is built for flexibility.

      @@piiiiiiiiiina The length of the intestine is not the issue. It's the diameter. Humans have e a small diameter intestine, meant for nutrient dense foods, which means meat. You can sterilize the colon and do just fine. You can remove the colon as well, with no adverse effect on digestion. Apparently you haven't heard of "animal fiber." This is the small amount of undigested meat that can be fermented into butyrate. The body can make butyrate from amino acids. Plant fiber can add too much butyrate, which then damages the mucosal wall of the colon. Paleolithic man was a super carnivore, meaning he not only ate herbivores but also ate other carnivores. Paleoanthropologists can determine the the diet of any animal by using steady isotopes of carbon and nitrogen in examing the skeletal remains. This method shows that man was exclusively a meat eater, since there is no evidence whatsoever that plant material was part of his diet. (Though almost certainly he ate seasonal berries, but that's just a guess.) Where you got the idea that man ate "tons of vegetables" can only be a propaganda site full of psuedo science. You should broaden your research, preferably without ideological bias. When I wrote "high pH" I meant high acidic levels. Humans can generate a pH of 1, which is the most acidic stomach wash of any carnivore. If your digestion pH is at 2.5 or higher it is too alkaline and your microbial colonies are too numerous and diverse, giving you a greater risk of GI disorders. It has been conclusively shown in animal studies, using mice, rats, guinea pigs, chickens, and dogs (which have virtually the same GI system as humans) that animals do not require gut biome for good health. In fact, "sterilized" animals have greater longevity than non-sterile members of their species. Problem is, we can't prevent the bugs from getting in. But we can keep their number and diversity at a minimum if we maintain the proper carnivore pH and diet. Now let's take a look at the ancient Egyptians, who were called by the Greeks "Eaters of Bread." This was post-neolithic, well after the rise of crop agriculture. Egyptians had a very high carb diet. Autopsies of hundreds of mummies, and the evidence of medical reports found in papyrus sources, show that the Egyptians were riddled with arthritis, diabetes, and chronic cardiovascular disease. And looking further, we find that since the neolithic age man on average has suffered a decrease in the following: brain size, height, bone density, and overall health. Crop agriculture has stalled our evolutionary development. We're heading back to the trees.

      If a baby/child had Celiac Disease and fed pablum and later toast, crackers, cookies, first birthday cake, then their gut will already be compromised.
      By the time you figure out the problem that person could be consuming an inflammatory food for 20-30+ years.

      My friend with Celiac Disease was never diagnosed until she was 60+. 60+ years of damage and suffering. It would have been even longer if she counted on her doctor to figure it out.
      Or for economic reasons, parents could only afford cheap food products.
      Or war time nutritional depravities stunting growth, and causing damage later on if they did survive.
      Not everyone has a cell phone or computer to access information.
      There are more organized vegan information sites for those looking to improve their diet than low carb/keto diets.
      It doesn’t help people still don’t realize doctors have no proper correct nutritional training, or even dieticians who are required to preach the gov’t approved high carb diet.
      Because of this, there are an enormous amount of people suffering out there.
      We need to organize better access and share the information; these presentations are vital to give more people healthy options to prevent chronic diseases, complications from disease and show that a lot of current information out there is misinformation.
      Independent studies need to be done right.
      It is slowly getting there, slowly.

    I once had konjac noodles - about 200-300g worth in a healthy keto bowl of ramen. Naturally, these have very little calories and no carbs or sugar at all - but for some reason, they have a rediculous amount of fiber - like 15g at least. Days after consuming them, my digestion was completely out of whack, I felt like crap, I was bloated, I felt like I wanted to puke, and I never lost weight for almost an entire week despite having 2+ month history of consistently losing 4.3 pounds per week on average with keto. Now because of that 1 failed weight loss week, my average has tanked to just 4 lbs per week, and I will never consume such noodles again.

      First of all, it's ok to have a bad week. You will not continue to lose 4 lbs/week realistically closer to your goal weight. We all need to adjust how we see food and measure progress. As someone else said, fiber is carbs, so it's important to consider total carbs and net carbs, as some foods manipulate fiber content to decrease total carbs, think quest bars. Erythritol makes me bloat for five days after consumption, but once the bloat goes, my weight also caught up to previous losses. Your use could be straight up fiber, the bloat or a quantity consumption issue, or even the lye product it's put in, or other ingredients touched in the factory, like gluten or soy. Remember goals need to be SMART.

Then switch to a more ketogenic, cooked, high fat, lower carb foods during the cooler months, with periods of fasting here and there in winter. We're not meant to be in ketosis all the time.

      ^^ Sorry but this is bollocks. Use an app, weigh your food, read your labels if you have them, count your carbs (net carbs) To get into ketosis at first it's best to go low 20-25. You can start experimenting with higher numbers later on, after a month or two. Try 30 for a month, then 35 etc. As long as you hit that target it doesn't matter what carbs you eat so long as you stay under your target and it's possible to easily go over that target eating a couple of large salads if you also eat avocados, nuts, seeds etc. The problem with carrots, potatoes etc. is that you can only eat a very small amount and it'll put you over your limit, but it doesn't mean you can't eat them if you really want to.

    I have to disagree. There is an abundance of research supporting increased fiber intake with longevity and gut health. Increasing animal protein intake from the wrong sources (grain fed animals, additives, or antibiotic induced) is going to lead to inflammation that can harm the microbiome and thus lead to possible weight gain. I love my meat, but it has to be balanced and chosen carefully from the right source. Eating mainly protein and too little complex carbohydrate (that takes out fiber) may help someone stay "thin" but it will not increase your life expectancy or quality of life in the long run.

    Unfortunately for the HFLC peeps, going keto will just cause you to cause you to break down protien into glucose.

    HFLC peeps arent aware intramayocellular lipids which causes IR. Fiber can cause gas depening on your gut flora. If you eat more meat it will only shrink the population of bacteria that can handle the fiber in favor for those that cant. Anyway gas is a small price to pay vs raising you all cause mortality rate.
