    My wife and I have made a similar conversion with our garden over the past 2 years due to changing over to Keto and now mostly Carnivore. We expanded our chicken flock and feed our garden greens, corn and winter squash to them. We’re also freeze drying stuff like tomato sauce, fruit and sweet potatoes. We’ve managed to find a couple of local sources willing to trade eggs and veg for meat.
    Pete, if I had your acreage I’d take a shot at raising my own meat.

      This is what I was going to say. Looks like there's enough land there to support at least some small livestock; the garden produce can go to feed them, or trade for what they can't raise themselves. We have ducks, meat rabbits, and some meat goats on our two and a half acres.

    I believe the oxalates effect us all differently..as we all are different.
    My own personal story, for years I bought into the green smoothie craze. Spinach & kale etc.
    Then came the constant burning bladder. I saw multiple specialists and had countless tests, the cystoscopes were the worst. Never any infections. They had no answers for me and now that I look back, none of them were even remotely interested in my diet.
    I credit my brother for finding my answer. I was in a dark moment of despair and I said I just can’t take it anymore, it’s wearing me out…what can I take for this?
    He said, maybe it’s what you should stop taking. So I stopped the green shakes and at that time I had no idea what oxalates even were! Within a week my burning slowly subsided, and it’s now gone. I got my life back.
    I also found Sally Norton, and found much info on line. I had no idea.
    Thanks for making your video.

    I can relate with you, I too had a garden and bought a freeze dryer. I thought I was eating healthy and I couldn't understand why my body wasn't healing. I did keto for two years and lost weight and felt better, but I had heard from some doctors who became carnivore, how their arthritis and diabetes went away. Then I after researching for a year, I decided to go on an elimination diet for 3 months, no veggies, just red meat eggs and bacon and salt and sardines once or twice a week. I couldn't believe the wonderful benefits that happened when did this. Like you within weeks my triglycerides went down from 300 to 90 and my knees got stronger. I had broken my leg the year before and now the muscles and my meniscus in my knee was healing. Diabetes numbers started going down. A1C. I am now 7 months in and I plan to continue. My doctor isn't happy, but she sees the results. No anxiety, hormones are balancing out. My tennis elbow is gone. My energy levels are getting better. I am a 71yr old female. My skin is looking younger. No skin tags. Yes I still have some more healing to go, but something positive is happening to my body. Doctor says you need any pills for pain depression...no doctor I feel so much better. She is scratching her head as she wanted me on statin drugs and other things. I hope this is the right direction for you and me. Keep up the good work. Dr. Ken Berry book "The Proper Human diet," Dr. Elizabeth Bright on hormones need cholesterol since they need cholesterol for building hormones, Dr. Ovidas a heart doctor journey research and such, Dr. Chaffee. Well the list of doctors is growing.

    My Gardens have switched mostly to food production for The Animals. Things that are easy to grow, easy to store Winter/off-season. And that will feed animals.
    There's 3 acres of Garden that are now pasture and food plot for the animals.
    I've gone carnivore .. but my choice of meats is not typical. Carnivore enthusiasts seem bent on a beef preference. If not beef, more generally ruminants. I can't do that without acquiring outside dependencies on meat supply that I do not want.
    My flavor of Carnivore consists of the small livestock I can raise and feed on my own, as well as what we hunt here on The Homestead - Chicken (both meat birds and egg layers), Musvovy/Duck (including wild/native Mallard we hunt as well as the Meat breeds we raise) Deer, Goose (both native Canada and we raise American Buff) Turkey (we raise Bourbon Red) , Meat Rabbit, Wild Cottontail, Bass and Catfish. The occasional Hog/Pig but we don't do that every year.
    Beef is a rare treat that we have to buy in as we don't have the land base to support cattle.
    Carnivore doesnt necessarily mean Cow, folks. We're seeing all the same benefits without it.

    Pete, I'm right there with you on this journey. At 54, I switched to a carnivore diet this January and haven't looked back. Like you, I've ditched the garden-turns out raising my own beef is not only fulfilling but it's really all I need now. The difference in how I feel is night and day, with so much less pain and a clearer mind. It's funny, isn’t it? No one batted an eye when my diet was pizzas, crackers, chips, etc... but switch to steaks and organ meats, and suddenly everyone's warning about cholesterol and health risks. The irony kicked in when my doc put me on statins and that pushed me into tons of research-decided no statins for me. Here’s to living in a world where no one looks out for your own health...except you! follow the money with doctors and rx drugs. Keep thriving on your path!

    I raised composting worms and spray vericulture tea. Over two years ago I decided to go carnivore after having many green and fruit smoothies. I froze tons of fruits and veggies, including bananas, coconut water, pineapple, lilikoi , dragon fruit, etc.
    I gave it all away and filled my freezers with meat. I still eat some of the Mac. Nuts and avocados. I feel incredible now that I cut out the smoothies.

    YES!!! I am SO GLAD to see someone posting on this VERY topic! We just moved to the country side after years of wanting to get out here and get our gardens going, and 6 months ago after feeling the call to make a first brief run at carnivore (SAME positive results, went off, but getting into position to make a longer-term commitment), I thought I was going to have an existential crisis regarding how to put together our permaculture design for our property- and that was exactly what we've been having to re-thinking now - growing instead to feed the chickens, and diversify in other ways to be able to then focus more on chickens/eggs, and other things to grow/sell in order to then in turn support other local organic meat growers to assure a diverse keto-vore/carnivore diet, etc--- all just at the beginning stages- a definite paradigm shifter, and so grateful to see others on the cutting edge sharing their similar experiences! Many thanks! 🙏🌷

    If you are going to go carnivore, you need to look at locally produced livestock. Cattle, sheep, and goats
    Find someone you know who raises the animal, buy them live, finish feeding them out, process them yourself or carry them to the processor.
    You get a MUCH better product, and you know it is safely raised and fed.

It was the vegetables that I was eating daily that was causing all of these issues. I showed that video of you talking about Sally Norton’s book to my husband, and he was very inspired by your transformation and then he showed it to his best friend and he was very inspired.
    Now they both have turned to carnivore.. oxalate dumping can be very painful for some people. I know it has been for me, but I’m going to fight through it because I feel amazing now that I am gone carnivore the dumping doesn’t last long usually three days for me. I usually drink a cup of hot tea when I start to feel the dumping coming on and I believe that it’s been helping.
    Good luck on your journey. Keep moving forward and find what works for you and your wife.

Also, with all this extra energy, I ripped out a big area and I am hand digging a pond! After a veg diet for nearly 30 years and getting sicker once I started eating more from my own garden, my life has completely flipped a 180 just by doing a mostly meat diet.

I have nothing against this guy and his decision as plants can cause issues with people. We have a 1” secum and chimps have a 4’ long secum for digesting fiber.

    I am 81 and I fractured my hip last October and I made a good recovery and my surgeon said that was because of my garden and the strength that I had. He said to be sure to have a garden again this year.
    I decided to go carnivore on May 11 in the midst of planting my garden so I decided to just work hard in it and plant the usual things and put the produce in the clubhouse in my mobile home park for other people. Win-win. I don’t really like to give them things that will hurt them however they need food and they will buy the things anyway. Inflation has hit seniors hard.
    The hard part is that I had just replanted my strawberry bed and they are my favorite food in the world. I allow myself two small strawberries a day and that helps keep the oxalate dumping from getting out of hand according to Sally K Norton.

And I have been getting the red bumps too. Boy, do they inch at times. The only thing I have found that doesn't bother me is when I make my own tortillas. Using the unbleached flour. Carnivore is amazing what it has done for me is amazing as well. I am so happy for you and your wife. I am trying different things to see how they make me feel because when the stuff does hit the fan, I want to know which ones don't affect me as much because if I cannot get meat, I want something that won't be so hard on me and let me tell you some things are harder than others.

    7 years ago, I decided to go whole foods, plant-based, after reading of Dr. John McDougal's books. He and his colleagues convinced me it was the way to go. He listed testimonials in his books and his website - people were healing and losing weight. So, I bought the idea. Fast forward to the end of the 7th year. My hair was falling out. I could not grow fingernails; they would break, peel and splinter. My vision was going to pot. Then I heard about Paleo, Keto, Carnivore, and the Lion Diet. And I started reading and watching as many videos as I could and all the doctors that were promoting eating meat. So. I tried it. And it is amazing how quickly your body begins to heal. My nails are stronger now than ever. My dry eye has improved. My hair is still falling out, but not quite as much. It's still a struggle, a big culture changed - but I keep working at it.

    Great plan and congrats to you and your wife on making the switch. I'm in my second year and the healing continues to amaze me. It's such a paradigm shift that it's hard to not sound fanatical to those who haven't experienced it yet. This is my second gardening season since my full transition to carnivore and I still enjoy the garden but am just maintaining and protecting my soil, keeping my perennial crops tended and growing flowers. I've had the same thought that you expressed -- I wish I could share how good I feel. Aging in reverse to a ridiculous degree and the best decision I ever made.

    If you have livestock, feed these vegetables to them. They can get the max nutrition out of them better than we can. So, when we eat their meat and organs those nutrients are methylated for us to absorb to the max. I am carnivore too. 5 years now. Had multiple autoimmune disorders and thyroid nodules with a litany of symptoms and inflammation that I take 2 different immunosuppressives for. Hoping to reverse it. Had lots of problems with health that did resolve with meat heavy keto, low oxalate veg, no nightshades and not much veg at all really. Just a tiny bit to flavor my food now like a little garlic and onion. You’re doing the right thing mister. Keep at it.

The pharmaceutical companies run our "healthcare system ". Meat, particularly ruminants, along with some sunshine and good sleep cures just about every chronic disease. My husband suffered Rheumatoid arthritis and had 1 hip replacement and was about to have the other done until we went carnivore. Beef. butter, bacon and eggs.

      Yes, exactly. I wonder if anyone has explored a "sesonal" diet, where you eat the fruit and veggies when they are available in your area from the farmers, and then in the winter resort to a strictly meat based diet. It would give the body the chance to cleanse.

      The body is best without them, and does not require even a bite of vegetation. Wild plants were mainly used to avoid starvation, a few berries & wild onions were used in season, for flavoring. Otherwise, they knew how to process each wild green they ate, otherwise, they would experience suffering. Wild greens and gmo beans must be highly processed to remove their toxins.

    I can relate to your story. Went vegetarian years ago and I started having a lot of health issues that few doctors could help me with. I incorporated meat again, Went gluten free, cut out all milk except for butter and ghee, and it helped but didn’t solve everything. Went Paleo and seemed to help up to a point, but still experiencing a lot of issues still. Discovered animal-based (not full carnivore but include some fruit and honey like Dr, Paul Saladino talks about), removed oxalate-heavy plant foods, and include organs, and amazingly feel a night and day difference. The word is getting out there how plants are not as amazing for us as many people have been lead to believe. That’s great you’re seeing such good results from your dietary changes.

      The tea only helps because it puts some oxalates in your diet. Use something else that you like that can put some oxalates in your diet to keep from dumping. I use some baker's chocolate. You could use any food that you like that has oxalates. Look at Sally Norton videos, or better yet, read her book.

We bought a half cow and a whole pig this spring and have a whole lamb coming next week. Buying in bulk has been a very positive experience. Can’t beat $4-$6 a # for meat, yes even the steaks.

    I'm thankful for this thoughtful talk, so many are in the same dilemma. Gardening is fulfilling and important, as a way to produce more organic fruits and vegetables, as a means of preparation for hard and uncertain times and as a way to supplement the high cost of groceries. I haven't managed to go completely carnivore, even though I do feel better when I manage to go a week or so, but then the tomatoes are ripe or the lettuce or mangos and I fall off again. So the conflict is real, I guess then low carb is more my reality. I love the conclusions you've come to and many of the commenters here as well. Having such lovely land and a productive garden is a blessing, I'm so glad you're taking a measured approach.

    One thing I wanted to bring up is that our ancestors fermented their fruits and vegetables. It reduced the oxalates in the vegetables to make them more digestible and bioavailable nutrient wise. We've lost our skills. That being said you'll have lots of salt in storage to ferment your homegrown vegetables in the future if need be. I am also carnivore - but know that vegetables that are properly prepared are healthy.

I'm just doing cover crops now for the real food - which is chicken only for the moment. I'm buying my beef, etc.
    I converted my hoop house to a 97 square food hoop coop, fully enclosed, metal roof, etc. For the garden to the right of the hoop house I'm having 13 4x4 posts put in and I'll top them with 2x4s and skirt them with 2x6s. Install hardware cloth for the lower 4ft and chicken wire for the top and roof and then cover that with 40% shade cloth - since I'm in FL. I already have a run and extension totaling about 300 feet on the other side of the hoop house so I'll be able to alternate between the two runs. I only have meat birds and use them for both meat and eggs. 2 Freedom Rangers, 1 Big Red

    I've been thinking about what to do with the garden. Definitely want to do chickens again and try to grow as much of their feed as possible. I'm including grains in my plans for that.

I love some onion with my eggs. A little bit of leafy greens, some sour kraut, with beef for dinner. And either a half a sweet potato or a carrot. Okra season is coming, use olive oil. Lectins in foods are mostly neutralized by removing seeds and skins and then pressure cooking for 20 minutes. God bless you on the carnivore diet, Dr Ken Berry will certainly agree with you!✔️
