Thanks for the honest experiment and being willing to try something so opposite to everything we have been taught, this diet helps me so much, with autoimmune conditions and pre diabetic, my plant based diet caused more problems for me because I have plant sensitivities so I appreaciate your sacrific💙
Great video. One suggestion I have is it would be nice to know how these diets affected your blood work, specifically cholesterol levels. I did the keto diet. I lost 25 lbs and my good and bad cholesterol improved 30% and my triglycerides came down by 100. Love your channel. Keep up the great work.
wow! you went directly to carnivore and skipped paleo diet... i mean, if you wanna simulate the caveman diet, paleo MAY BE the closest thing. you can still get your greens (fibrous carbs) which would better regulate your bowel movement and help with the lethargy. i said "may be" because i don't partake in it, so i don't know much about it. i'm happy with IF, it's been working great for me. i like having protein, fibrous carbs, starchy carbs, fats in my meal... and i don't have to reduce my daily macro portion to lose weight! the fasting does that for me 😀👍🏽
Been carnivore for 2 months. Ive lost 30 lbs and getting my energy and sleep back. Went into it with pcos and insomnia due to a previous injury and this diet so far has helped both of those. Thing I would add is salt. Good salt. You burn through electrolytes with this diet and you need that salt. So salt your food, drink lots of water. Kick ass Update: I've now lost 61 lbs. Gained muscle. I've had pcos for years and that means zero periods. Now my periods have returned like clock work and on time for the first time in over a decade. Advice. You'll need a good source of potassium and bananas suck. Beet tops work good. Powdered magnesium and good salt. I'm no longer strictly carnivore. I'm primal.. I eat some veggies that help me with my minerals and performance. I now weight lift to tone up and for sleep. I guess it's been a year since I started and I'm 39lbs away from being 100 lbs down. Noone recognizes me anymore. All my health issues are gone. Anxiety and depression gone. Insomnia gone. Now I have a crazy high sex drive and love to cook at home. My new goal is lose 39 lbs, get more toned, fine tune the minerals I need. Keep kicking ass everyone
looking to give it a shot but some things weren't consistent with what is being talked about and what they did a) they didn't add organ meats (vary important) b) pretty much salt only for seasoning (for enhancing taste on top of electrolytes ) c) its very normal to have irregular poops for like a week or two till you detox and your gut gets used to this diet. Be careful if you have a sex partner that's also doing the carnivore diet because I've read that she will become highly fertile. Many testimonials stating that the opposite happened, they said they gained energy and mental clarity and slept much better and sex became better.
Plants are a terrible source of minerals due to phytic acid binding them and humans lack the phytase required to break the phosphorus compounds apart to get those nutrients. Bone broth and eggshells are superior for calcium, magnesium, and other minerals used by bones, while liver is superior for iron levels and traces of those minerals; for potassium, muscle meats give ample potassium as it is intracellular, especially heart meat due to sodium and potassium both being required by the heart in large amounts. It is actually a vegetarian myth that plants are good sources of anything but sugar or constipation. All vital nutrients can be found in every part of the animal, and in superior amounts in organ meats and animal fat and skin. The nutrients in animal products also have superior bioavailability, meaning you absorb it readily without need for conversion. I personally make bone broth or just powder bones and eggshells in a mill and put the powder in capsules for mineral content. In the wild, animals gnaw on bones and antlers to gain the minerals, or swallow other animals whole and gain the minerals from the bones that way. And of course, I use pink Himalayan salt because it's not only very healthy, it's delicious compared to highly refined salt. Sea salt works equally well but I have found it to be a tad more expensive and the pink kind more available. Not telling you what to eat, just making a scientific statement to clear up some misconceptions.
My bro did carnivore for over 6mths his health was horrendous prior..Obese diabetes insulin dependence heart condition, on cpap, arthritis, fatty liver, leaky kidney, prostate cancer.. Recently went to Dr all bloods were normal, off all meds..Lost so much weight... I wish he documented his journey..
was it due to eating meat or due to cutting out all processed and ultra-processed foods?? humans are not carnivores. but of course cutting out seed oils and ultra processed foods is going to feel better, only in comparison.
@@raidenkeify video diary or not. Some things are better done the right way but alas I just realized these vids are actually satire and have no educational value so all good
I agree. Some of us have to consider the deeper effects of a diet, such as cholesterol and gastrointestinal changes beyond a brief mention of "poop," which seemed more like an opportunity for a cheap joke. I watched this whole thing, muting the corny stuff, hoping that such an effort in making a video would include a little effort in producing serious information. I could have predicted the basic results they showed.
@Thiago IO I mean the meat industry is destroying the planet right now while creating mass suffering. But I guess people wanting to stop suffering and destroying our ecosystem is idiots.
Zimmerh90 The meat industry is destroying our ecosystem. Eating meat is not. Anyways.. the newspaper industry is far worse when it comes to the environment but no one bothers about that shit.. Why I wonder?
I've been eating 95% animal protein for over 2 years now. I lost 25 lbs the first month. I am down to 170 from 205 now and I eat one big protein meal per day. It's easy now. No dishes. No hours of prepping, cleaning, wondering (what to eat). It's freed up time for living life not sitting around eating. I look and feel amazing. My bloodwork is perfect. I'm 52 and feel better and look better than when I was in my 20's.
I don’t know the exact numbers, but last Oct. I was in a violent auto accident (truck driver fell asleep coming head on into my lane) breaking 3 cervical bones and having emergency fusion surgery. Couldn’t move anything from my neck down. I believe I made an incredible recovery due to my being on the carnivore diet nearly 2 years prior to the accident. Obviously I’ve had numerous blood tests and not one doctor has called me about any abnormalities in my blood work. I’ve doubled down on the carnivore diet and I bought a freezer and have stocked it with half cow. I’m all in.
@h. s it's all epidemiological nonsense based on food recall surveys and questionable data. Your studies are provided by guys like Walter Willett who is funded by Barilla and the sugar industry. You're hilariously myopic.
I am 190 I always been 145 my whole life at one point lower than that I've gained over 50 lbs in the last 4 years and now that I am engaged I am wanting more to be healthy again. ruclips.net/user/postUgkx5VQ5nUzHu6i0O5_u7ipyLnCz0lbsSvr0 I am not fat but I am thick and have muscle. I am very close to how you were but a lil smaller but I am so sick people making comments to me like I'm huge or like you said having shorts that used to be so cute on me and now I can't even find a pair to fit me. I used to love shopping now I don't even want to go to the store and if I do I pick the biggest size don't even try it on and deal with it. I went from size 5 to size idk because I don't even want to know the real number. I hate looking at pics of myself now or me before. thank you for your video it's time to make a change.
Yes... stop eating dead animal bodies and their goo... eat fruit, seeds, and nuts like primates are supposed to and get actual health! This is meat industry sponsored garbage to make you sick.
Meat has more nutrients that FDA guidelines report because they put zero down as the assumed value and then report the things they actually measure which isn't everything. I've known meat only carnivores that have thrived for decades and reversed auto immune diseases.
yeah they missed some things that help. I did the carnivore diet in the last 9 months of being at university and i felt great. The only thing I didnt follow was i still ate oranges just because I couldnt bare without that flavour so i cheated but I wouldnt say i was that bad
Boanerges people like you are the reason why the Bible and Christians are a laughing stock. Shoving biblical references into things that don’t need it turns people away. Stop that.
@@MyFriendOfMisery13 I don't consider myself a Christian. The sole reason I provided those biblical passages was to spread the truth about the human diet, that is to say what's edible and what's not. For your validation, the second passage about “clean” and “unclean” animals is scientifically backed from start to finish.
Here's why i feel like this didnt work for them: -Usually this diet is for metabolically unhealthy people, and people with diseases. -They work out a ton, and are reliant on carbs to give them extra energy for woorking out. -30 days isnt long enough for your body to change and heal while on this diet minimum is 90 days to recommended is 6-12 months -They both did a carb/sugar heavy diet right before this -Eating the hot grease from the meat makes your stool loose (its going to happen no matter what sometimes, but dont drink the grease. Cold butter should be the only melted fat/grease you should be consuming) -You can have variety on this diet, dont just eat the same things everyday -Electrolytes!!! You need these to stop feeling tired/foggyness/lackadaisical. You tend to expell salt more on this diet so get plenty salt, potassium and magnesium. I feel like these are very outstanding errors that make the diet look bad compared to the result that many others experienced. Remember, Carnivore isnt just a quick diet. It a process of healing that takes time
This is so correct!! There's no wonder there are so many positive, transformative comments on this video from people who have experienced the true carnivore experience for a longer time. While on their vegan video the best I can find are "I'm getting all the vitamins I need, losing weight and fart a lot!" 😅
i think it failed for them cause they wanted it to fail. all they could think about was the variety they were missing out on. plus they were, as you said in really good shape, so they probably could not feel the difference in combination with the above attitude i described, that my opinion which could be wrong.
I do carnivore diet a couple of times per year, usually for 2-3 months at a time. I get much better sleep, have less stress, less gas and digestive issues, and I usually lose 15 pounds each month. I drink coffee for breakfast (no sugar), have a pound of ground beef for lunch, and a ribeye for dinner. Very routine, but like you guys say in the video, the meat is very satiating and simple to plan for. Biggest downfalls for me are when my wife and family want to go out to eat, or if we go out of town.
Razor, a couple of days here and there eating carbs moderately, ice cream, etc. won´t destroy the good results of the diet, go for it without fear or guilt.
To anyone considering the Carnivore diet; i started this diet last november, when i hit 280 pounds (was previously a buff dude, turned into a very pudgy, weak, depressed dude). After 2 months on the carnivore diet, i had the mental clarity that everyone was talking about. I lost 25 pounds. Hell, i even decided to quit smoking after 10 freaking years. Then, i started working out. Im not at 240 pounds, and working out 6 days a week. Ive re-introduced carbs, but have not gone back to eating unhealthy. The point is, the carnivore diet, at least for me, saved my life. Im actually considering going back on it, because i actually feel worse than i did when i was not eating greens/oats/quinoa. Just some insight.
I'm happy that you lost the weight, but it's always the same thing. Pick any extreme diet (Vegan, keto, IF, paleo, carnivore, etc.) and there will be really overweight people who had success in it. With just a few adjustments almost any diet can help you lose weight if you set your mind to it and you happen to be quite overweight.
@@bitcoinborg798 Except it does. He could have gone vegan or even stayed on the standard diet, just minus the ultra-processed foods, sodium, added sugars, alcohol, etc.
Little disclaimer...I didn't actually watch this video, but 30 days?? It took me 2--3 months to fully "adapt", i.e., have steady energy and stop craving sweets. For those watching; give it 90 days minimum before judging how you feel.
I'm concerned about bowel movements, isn't it meat just harder to digest in your body, takes more time? If eating meat everyday wouldn't you be backed up?
@@adamm784 There's several videos in the carnivore community that address this topic. I personally don't have a problem digesting meat. Again, expect an adaptation period where stomach flora, enzymes and acids optimize for what's consumed. I did benefit in that respect by adding more fat to my diet, but you do not need fiber to pass stools as commonly believed.
People have fewer bowel movement's because meat is digested really thoroughly and theres little wasted. On a high fiber and plant based diet Id have large movements daily. For the first week of a meat based diet, my stool was very watery due to the lack of fiber and I went daily, but then it dropped down to every other day with small amounts. Most people arent backed up, they literally just have small bowel movement on this diet
I dont know after researching all these extreme diets I think we are just omnivores that need to cut out sugar and processed food a minority of people need these types of diets for allergies or autoimmune diseases but the majority off us just need to cut out the crap
@@aeroplaneguy3367 skewed research with biases and presuppositions. They leave out obvious things. They compare unhealthy American diets with healthy vegetarianism. Of course, the differences will be stark.
@@ordinaryquest You need to realize when you are projecting, because your comment is a presupposition. Seems like a ready made response void of any fact other than what you presuppose is true. Do you even know what research you're responding to? because you're mentioning various epidemiological studies, while I mentioned Dr. Esselstyn and Ornish and their experiments. Even to follow your point, do you really believe no researcher has considered that? the epidemiological Adventist studies are for example on health conscious omnivores, vegetarians, pescatarians, and vegans. While back on point, Dr. Esselstyn in his experiment for example had a control group with standard medical care, which is a "healthy" omnivorous diet, standard medicine and procedures. Same with Dr. Ornish. You really need to acknowledge your ignorance because you don't know everything about research. And just because you have an opinion doesn't mean it is fact.
I did this diet for over 4 months. No eggs. Just meat. My findings were very different. I felt great, with lots of energy, muscle mass gain, loss of fat, and increase of strength. My stomach was never so flat since I was 15. The only thing that made me quit was the lack variety and constant craving for carbs, mostly bread. I guess it all depends on the person.
I had a weird reaction to it myself. However I only stuck to it for 4 weeks. My heart rate was really high, bp went up and down, felt really foggy with bad indigestion. I've had some people say it was detoxing symptoms not the diet, but I don't know if I'm going to try again.
@@bottomlinebassin2001 I had the same issue, my heart rate will start beating fast out of nowhere at night and I always have violent dreams. When I have carbs my energy is much higher and I go into deeper sleep and overall my mood is better
if they had just been vegan they probably didn't have enough time to fully adjust. mental clarity has been the one thing i've heard about over and over until i saw this
@@jeffreycamper6189 no blood work. Although I felt great during the diet, I just can't imagine eating always the same thing, even if it is different types of meats. I just love bread and potatoes too much.
I tried it and got opposite results. Felt great, thought great, slept great, lost a ton of weight, strength and endurance increased better than anything else I've ever tried. They said no spice. Screw that. Use the spice. Eat meat and cheese just watch your carbs. I kept mine around 10 and looked like i was juicing.
@@willofdodge1 Scurvy is caused by a lack of Vitamin C , turns out though if your not eatting plants, breads, grains etc your body doesn't require vitamin C as much as thought before
@@willofdodge1 Although you may not have the optimal vitamin C levels on the carnivore diet, meat has enough to keep you from getting scurvy especially if you eat organ meats.
@@blissfuldissolution5202 well youre pretty much brainwashed to think its disgusting and yet you go and eat disgusting cake full of nothing but sugar and the worse part you pay for it.
@@ahabrawgaming1289 I’m brain washed to think raw pieces of dead animals stacked on top of each other is disgusting? Also, I eat sugar about once a month and workout 6 days a week. You should stop making shallow assumptions about other people, specially since you don’t seem to be capable of independent thoughts.
Very, VERY entertaining video. The "Silence..." had me laughing out loud at work. Love your honesty and clear explanations of how you're feeling through the 30 day course was very informative. TY
Watching this video again after 3 years. I wonder how your experience would be if you added butter and salt to this diet like a lot of other people who are carnivore. I would really like to see you guys try this again but a little different.
and I'd like to add, maybe not eat yellow pale yolk eggs. If planning on eating eggs, it HAS to be good eggs. The best you can find (and is not that much more expensive).
Yall try way too hard to complicate your diets to stick to a fad. Just eat good food. Grains aren't bad. You need carbs, and you need fiber. Just stop with this silliness.
@@praxton That's true if your goal is to just stay alive. If you have plans for your body ie powerlifting, or losing weight, your diet is a tool that you need to take advantage of.
@@MegaTeeruk Point being that although he makes many good points here and there from a social sciences point of view, his diet may have aided in exacerbating his anxiety.
@@Chaingangsoldiernit Quite the contrary. He had extreme anxiety before going carnivore, and it has only helped him, according to his own daughter, who's also a carnivore
@@nioxic77 maybe anxiety has a genetic component to it, but the Carnivore diet couldn't possibly have helped that much if the dude had to check into rehab afterwards...
Over a year on carnivore. Took my body 4 days to adjust to going to the bathroom. Took a month or so for energy levels to adjust. Now if I ever have a cheat and have carbs I lose all energy and my body becomes very sore
Great videos, guys! I’m having massive mental clarity, consistently good energy levels, and feeling really strong. Also losing weight. I guess everyone reacts differently 🙂
That's right. There is no one perfect diet for everyone. Every person reacts differently to certain diets, and also have different needs for nutrients. So just go with what works for you
I did the carnivore diet for June this year. I leaned out very fast and felt great but come the end of the month I was carving broccoli. I went back into keto afterward and I'm still at roughly the same weight. I plan to do another carnivore month during BBQ season.
I love meat but only eating meat makes me feel physically sick! I eat a balanced diet with the right amount of protein, vitamins, fibre, carbs and fat along with a consistent exercise routine. Helps keep me in shape.
@@stevenhull5025 poison in small amounts is good for you. I think that's the biggest issue with pure carnivore, kinda like someone who sterilizes everything and then gets a bad immune system. Unless you have an auto immune disease regular keto is better
That basement scene was funny as hell. Also got too emotionally attached to the eggman scene. Was rooting for the last egg to escape. His buddy snitched which resulted in his untimely violent murder RIP eggman
Mattias Gabrielsson research Rabbit starvation! That would do the trick. It’s called protein starvation, people develop it from eating only animals that have extremely low fat content. I believe it got popularized as “rabbit starvation” because there were a group of survivors who were eating a ton of rabbit and still starved to death.
@@SnowHawkX I think switching from the standard American diet to whole foods that come from verifiable clean sources would definitely impact strength and muscle mass. Just increasing protein can increase rate of muscle gain on a gainer diet.
Lack of energy... I've had this issue too. But once i put salt back into the diet the foggy and the energy increased. You have to have electrolytes along with this diet in moderation. It Helps A Lot.
You can but from what I have seen with Shawn Baker MD, and their podcast you an do well without them. But, you are right they have lots of vitamins and minerals that are amazing for your body.
@@BGRecon Check Weston Price and Vilhjalmur Stefansson's works - indigenous people prized organs and fat over lean cuts because of high micronutrients. And Shawn Baker was referring on RDA, but they are only to prevent deficiencies, not for optimal health. Check out Frank Tufano's latest videos about it, he has great points on this topic. P.S. sorry for my english 🙂
@@BGRecon technically you can do without them but you need to find another source for the nutrients that organ meats provide. At the very least take cod liver oil.
They aren't necessary, but can be eaten. The fattier cuts of meat, especially ruminant animal meat like beef or lamb, are the most critical for success. Ruminant animal meat is the only safe meat to eat undercooked or raw IF it is handled correctly. And the closer to raw it is, the less degraded the fat soluble vitamins will be. Vitamins are destroyed in heat.
I am on day 40 of my 2 month carnivore experiment moving from keto. I am happy to admit that I have broken my one and a half year weight loss plateau. I think cutting out nuts, seeds and cheese has what allowed my body to break through the plateau. I have lost 6 lbs so far and feel good. It is simple and I feel like I'm hitting all my nutrient targets. However, like you guys, I miss variety and will implement more keto carbs back into my diet after those two months.
Okay!! Here's why you were having no energy and brain fog. You need SALT!!! Good clean salt is everything on carnivore or keto diet. Your body was very low on minerals. When you wake up, you need to start your day with salt water, then of course you need water throughout the day. You need to make sure to have your electrolytes or else you will have keto flu for a very long time. And no, you don't need carbs for energy at all and your brain runs better on ketones than glucose. Your body produces ketones and burns fat as your source of energy and that's a much better energy source than carbs. If you do carnivore the right way, your energy level will be amazing. Also, add beef liver to your diet.
I tried this challange for weightloss. But could only sustain it for 13 days before goin nuts. But... The results were insane which i didnt notice till a week after i quit the diet. I lost 26 pounds in under 4 weeks. Serious skin sag.
@@drewspear2523 Google it. Sugars processed foods grains gmo foods ruin your body. Not animals that nature created. Eat a ton of fat and no carbs and you loose fat.
@@bjenkins3860 animals eat plants, animals have saturated fat. Long chain fatty acids that arteries can't handle. Saturated fat raises serum cholesterol. "Nature created it for us" What an absolute self-centered idea that is. Is the Earth also the center of Universe too?
@@chrisom4699 bacon isn't just smoked I Australia not sure where your from, plenty of shit added to make it last over a month. It's a deli meat here not available in fresh meat section
I bet the brain fog and energy level issue is attributed to an electrolyte imbalance. More salt or electrolyte drops would have been helpful. My opinion.
Excellent Buff Dudes, I love how you try to keep your opinions imparcial as much as you can. I can offer you my life experience in this matter. I'm from Uruguay, a country with twice the amount of cattle than humans, were we have one of the longest life expectancies in the world, before the appearance of fast food places we even had one of the leanest population, we as the Argentinians and in the South of Brazil had and have a similar way of eating, and it is: Meat Meat Meat, "The asado" one of the cuts of cow ribs grilled its our national food, but for good sake not cooked on the fire or in top of coal, but on top of the EMBERS, that grants you the correct amount of heat but not the contaminants from the combustion. We eat meat like no other places in the world; there's even a common say here when someone offers you salad with your meet, jokingly of course, you may hear someone replaying: "Im not a cow to eat grass, thank you" so imagine... carnivore Diet may sound rare to many but it's tested for generations here. Keep the excellence Guys
I love your videos and how fun you make them! Although it's hard to understand why you would do a carnivore diet back-to-back with a vegan diet - this is surely wreaking absolute havoc on your precious gut biome. You are what you eat and all your little buff dudes in your gut and inflammatory system need at least some kind of consistency or gradual change at the least. Please take care of yourselves and if you continue such videos, consider the impact of shocking your systems (not only does it affect gut biome, but all hormones and cell functioning). Thanks for the laughs :)
I love seeing this. I've been on a very low carb diet similar to this with a few salads thrown in including it with intermittent fasting and have gotten fantastic results. I've been documenting it here on RUclips, and in doing so find it so interesting to watch other people's videos on how it worked for them as well.
This, Carnivores need more sodium(salt) in the diet to process the protein and fats. In nature, or tribal societies they use the blood for soup or pudding. If anyone recalls the taste of their own blood from a cut, its extremely salty. Its the same of other animals where we'd get this as a source of nutrition, also blood is extremely nutrient rich. The demonization of salt is another pseudo scientific fraud meant to harm the public just like the discredited "bad cholesterol hypothesis".
@@Bathoggywinger i love how people on the carnivore diet reference some kind of idealistic society from thousands of years ago as the baseline for a healthful diet lol. pretty sure they would have some of the shortest life spans haha. the appeal to nature fallacy is strong in this one :P
Your father in this video is a truly gem, like in all, but here he deserves an Oscar XDD. Well done guys, mixing knowledge with fun. That's the way to go for entertainment and education.
You need to increase salt intake and it would boost your mindset. The sluggishness is actually related to dehydration from lack of carbs to help you retain water
I remember when I did Keto it too about 2 weeks for my body to adjust and my energy levels to recalibrate. After that I felt great. Then I shifted to carnivore and I remember it really helped my brain. When I woke up I was UP. No sleepiness. I was awake and ready to cook breakfast and do a morning workout.
@@trollnips9405 oh okay. I was carnivore earlier this year but couldn’t stick to it bc it gave me really bad heart palpitations, whether I ate sea salt or not. I’m not sure what to do.
I just started the carnivore diet Mon 10/12 and I can already tell a difference with my energy I am also fasting started with the 16hrs and now doing the 20 with the 5hr eating window3-8pm.... I’m so pumped and SUPER excited to be on this journey.... yesterday when I weighed I was down 3lbs.... I’m of course hoping to loose weight but I’m more so hoping to be healthy and I know the weight lost will come soon there after.... Wish me well guys .... I thought about doing a channel on my journey a lot of people tell us after the fact I think it would be nice to see someone loose weight right before your eyes not just with pics but like a everyday or at least every other day process. If this is something you might want to see thumbs up this comment so I know and I will get it started
This was very entertaining. I couldn't stop laughing. I have been on the carnivor diet for a little over 30 days now and I have lost 22 pounds. I'm doing the diet to lose weight and lower my BP ..and other health issues. So far so good. Wish me luck.
Now you know how people with common sense feel listening and reading your comments referring to yourselves as "Carnivores" when humans are far from it. Very entertaining, can't stop laughing.
@Donald Hariot it's slower and less efficient because in nature if you have access to lots of protein you jave access to fat, which is where all the fuel for your muscles and brain comes from. Gluconeogenesis doesn't have to be effective because when you're in ketosis your body only needs a small amount of glucose to sustain certain glands. I'm not an athlete but as a 2 month carnivore I didn't notice lack of energy. On the contrary my muscles never hurt after a workout and I seem to easily put on muscle mass.

Update: I've now lost 61 lbs. Gained muscle. I've had pcos for years and that means zero periods. Now my periods have returned like clock work and on time for the first time in over a decade. Advice.

looking to give it a shot but some things weren't consistent with what is being talked about and what they did a) they didn't add organ meats (vary important) b) pretty much salt only for seasoning (for enhancing taste on top of electrolytes ) c) its very normal to have irregular poops for like a week or two till you detox and your gut gets used to this diet. Be careful if you have a sex partner that's also doing the carnivore diet because I've read that she will become highly fertile. Many testimonials stating that the opposite happened, they said they gained energy and mental clarity and slept much better and sex became better.
@@Ronin_72 I can say I have been sleeping better and sex has been amazing! Only beef a couple times a week and lots of chicken and sockeye salmon too!

Plants are a terrible source of minerals due to phytic acid binding them and humans lack the phytase required to break the phosphorus compounds apart to get those nutrients. Bone broth and eggshells are superior for calcium, magnesium, and other minerals used by bones, while liver is superior for iron levels and traces of those minerals; for potassium, muscle meats give ample potassium as it is intracellular, especially heart meat due to sodium and potassium both being required by the heart in large amounts. It is actually a vegetarian myth that plants are good sources of anything but sugar or constipation. All vital nutrients can be found in every part of the animal, and in superior amounts in organ meats and animal fat and skin. The nutrients in animal products also have superior bioavailability, meaning you absorb it readily without need for conversion.
I personally make bone broth or just powder bones and eggshells in a mill and put the powder in capsules for mineral content. In the wild, animals gnaw on bones and antlers to gain the minerals, or swallow other animals whole and gain the minerals from the bones that way. And of course, I use pink Himalayan salt because it's not only very healthy, it's delicious compared to highly refined salt. Sea salt works equally well but I have found it to be a tad more expensive and the pink kind more available.

I have a friend who was in a similar boat and he’s been doing it for a year, he is now super healthy. Doctors was so surprised.
was it due to eating meat or due to cutting out all processed and ultra-processed foods??

I've been eating 95% animal protein for over 2 years now. I lost 25 lbs the first month. I am down to 170 from 205 now and I eat one big protein meal per day. It's easy now. No dishes. No hours of prepping, cleaning, wondering (what to eat). It's freed up time for living life not sitting around eating. I look and feel amazing. My bloodwork is perfect. I'm 52 and feel better and look better than when I was in my 20's.
I don’t know the exact numbers, but last Oct. I was in a violent auto accident (truck driver fell asleep coming head on into my lane) breaking 3 cervical bones and having emergency fusion surgery. Couldn’t move anything from my neck down. I believe I made an incredible recovery due to my being on the carnivore diet nearly 2 years prior to the accident. Obviously I’ve had numerous blood tests and not one doctor has called me about any abnormalities in my blood work. I’ve doubled down on the carnivore diet and I bought a freezer and have stocked it with half cow. I’m all in.

I think carnivore diet is meant to include organs like liver etc so you can get vitamin/ minerals
Liver is clutch and so is salt
Meat has more nutrients that FDA guidelines report because they put zero down as the assumed value and then report the things they actually measure which isn't everything. I've known meat only carnivores that have thrived for decades and reversed auto immune diseases.

John Stivers
He has the freedom to say whatever the hell he wants, everyone’s does.
Here's why i feel like this didnt work for them:
-Usually this diet is for metabolically unhealthy people, and people with diseases.
-They work out a ton, and are reliant on carbs to give them extra energy for woorking out.
-30 days isnt long enough for your body to change and heal while on this diet minimum is 90 days to recommended is 6-12 months
-They both did a carb/sugar heavy diet right before this
-Eating the hot grease from the meat makes your stool loose (its going to happen no matter what sometimes, but dont drink the grease. Cold butter should be the only melted fat/grease you should be consuming)
-You can have variety on this diet, dont just eat the same things everyday
-Electrolytes!!! You need these to stop feeling tired/foggyness/lackadaisical. You tend to expell salt more on this diet so get plenty salt, potassium and magnesium.
I feel like these are very outstanding errors that make the diet look bad compared to the result that many others experienced. Remember, Carnivore isnt just a quick diet. It a process of healing that takes time
This is so correct!! There's no wonder there are so many positive, transformative comments on this video from people who have experienced the true carnivore experience for a longer time. While on their vegan video the best I can find are "I'm getting all the vitamins I need, losing weight and fart a lot!" 😅
Its recommended by carnivore Drs 90 days to get the most benefit from a trial.
I'm glad I read that! Thanks
i think it failed for them cause they wanted it to fail. all they could think about was the variety they were missing out on. plus they were, as you said in really good shape, so they probably could not feel the difference in combination with the above attitude i described, that my opinion which could be wrong.
@@jjg1501 Yeah but they DID lose weight tho. Which for like 75 percent of people interested in this diet is one of the BIGGEST factors of trying it.

I do carnivore diet a couple of times per year, usually for 2-3 months at a time. I get much better sleep, have less stress, less gas and digestive issues, and I usually lose 15 pounds each month. I drink coffee for breakfast (no sugar), have a pound of ground beef for lunch, and a ribeye for dinner. Very routine, but like you guys say in the video, the meat is very satiating and simple to plan for. Biggest downfalls for me are when my wife and family want to go out to eat, or if we go out of town.
get steak when you go out to dinner or a double burger with no bun. good luck man

To anyone considering the Carnivore diet; i started this diet last november, when i hit 280 pounds (was previously a buff dude, turned into a very pudgy, weak, depressed dude). After 2 months on the carnivore diet, i had the mental clarity that everyone was talking about. I lost 25 pounds. Hell, i even decided to quit smoking after 10 freaking years. Then, i started working out. Im not at 240 pounds, and working out 6 days a week. Ive re-introduced carbs, but have not gone back to eating unhealthy. The point is, the carnivore diet, at least for me, saved my life. Im actually considering going back on it, because i actually feel worse than i did when i was not eating greens/oats/quinoa. Just some insight.
Hey, whatever works. Clearly dropping that weight is overall more healthy, and if carnivore is what did it that's probably a good thing
I'm happy that you lost the weight, but it's always the same thing. Pick any extreme diet (Vegan, keto, IF, paleo, carnivore, etc.) and there will be really overweight people who had success in it. With just a few adjustments almost any diet can help you lose weight if you set your mind to it and you happen to be quite overweight.
@@trevbarlow9719 what you're saying doesn't really modify or invalidate his experience in any meaningful way
@@bitcoinborg798 Except it does. He could have gone vegan or even stayed on the standard diet, just minus the ultra-processed foods, sodium, added sugars, alcohol, etc.
You are the DA MAN! That’s great and more power to you.
Little disclaimer...I didn't actually watch this video, but 30 days?? It took me 2--3 months to fully "adapt", i.e., have steady energy and stop craving sweets. For those watching; give it 90 days minimum before judging how you feel.
I'm concerned about bowel movements, isn't it meat just harder to digest in your body, takes more time? If eating meat everyday wouldn't you be backed up?
@@adamm784 There's several videos in the carnivore community that address this topic. I personally don't have a problem digesting meat. Again, expect an adaptation period where stomach flora, enzymes and acids optimize for what's consumed. I did benefit in that respect by adding more fat to my diet, but you do not need fiber to pass stools as commonly believed.
@@tallisholowka3946 Thank you Tallis! I'll look into it more.
People have fewer bowel movement's because meat is digested really thoroughly and theres little wasted. On a high fiber and plant based diet Id have large movements daily. For the first week of a meat based diet, my stool was very watery due to the lack of fiber and I went daily, but then it dropped down to every other day with small amounts. Most people arent backed up, they literally just have small bowel movement on this diet

We agree Mariah
What about the research carried out by Dr. Esselstyn or Dr. Ornish? you can't compare anecdotes to that.
@@aeroplaneguy3367 skewed research with biases and presuppositions. They leave out obvious things. They compare unhealthy American diets with healthy vegetarianism. Of course, the differences will be stark.
@@ordinaryquest You need to realize when you are projecting, because your comment is a presupposition. Seems like a ready made response void of any fact other than what you presuppose is true.
Do you even know what research you're responding to? because you're mentioning various epidemiological studies, while I mentioned Dr. Esselstyn and Ornish and their experiments. Even to follow your point, do you really believe no researcher has considered that? the epidemiological Adventist studies are for example on health conscious omnivores, vegetarians, pescatarians, and vegans.
While back on point, Dr. Esselstyn in his experiment for example had a control group with standard medical care, which is a "healthy" omnivorous diet, standard medicine and procedures. Same with Dr. Ornish.
You really need to acknowledge your ignorance because you don't know everything about research. And just because you have an opinion doesn't mean it is fact.
If only that were an easy thing to do!
I did this diet for over 4 months. No eggs. Just meat. My findings were very different. I felt great, with lots of energy, muscle mass gain, loss of fat, and increase of strength. My stomach was never so flat since I was 15. The only thing that made me quit was the lack variety and constant craving for carbs, mostly bread. I guess it all depends on the person.
I had a weird reaction to it myself. However I only stuck to it for 4 weeks. My heart rate was really high, bp went up and down, felt really foggy with bad indigestion. I've had some people say it was detoxing symptoms not the diet, but I don't know if I'm going to try again.
@@bottomlinebassin2001 I had the same issue, my heart rate will start beating fast out of nowhere at night and I always have violent dreams. When I have carbs my energy is much higher and I go into deeper sleep and overall my mood is better
if they had just been vegan they probably didn't have enough time to fully adjust. mental clarity has been the one thing i've heard about over and over until i saw this
Did you get any blood work done?
Do you feel like you could have sustained this diet longer? Indefinitely?
@@jeffreycamper6189 no blood work. Although I felt great during the diet, I just can't imagine eating always the same thing, even if it is different types of meats. I just love bread and potatoes too much.

My wallet will punch me in the face if i keep watching it.
im on keto. you pay less money than any other diet, and you have more energy !
just make smash burgers with cheese and chuck steaks are amazing and cheap
I tried it and got opposite results. Felt great, thought great, slept great, lost a ton of weight, strength and endurance increased better than anything else I've ever tried. They said no spice. Screw that. Use the spice. Eat meat and cheese just watch your carbs. I kept mine around 10 and looked like i was juicing.

It would be nice to learn about gains/losses in strength, muscle mass, etc.
In 30 days not alot tbh if they are able to workout mate
I don't really think any diet can significantly impact strenght/muscle mass in just 30 days. Unless you count complete starvation as a diet.
Mattias Gabrielsson research Rabbit starvation! That would do the trick. It’s called protein starvation, people develop it from eating only animals that have extremely low fat content. I believe it got popularized as “rabbit starvation” because there were a group of survivors who were eating a ton of rabbit and still starved to death.
@@someordinarydude9147 that's because rabbits have almost no fat value, if you eat fatty meat you're fine.
@@SnowHawkX I think switching from the standard American diet to whole foods that come from verifiable clean sources would definitely impact strength and muscle mass. Just increasing protein can increase rate of muscle gain on a gainer diet.

Lack of energy... I've had this issue too. But once i put salt back into the diet the foggy and the energy increased. You have to have electrolytes along with this diet in moderation. It Helps A Lot.
Can i have pepper?
Wouldn´t the diet also include eating all the organs like liver, kidney, heart etc.? That´s where a lot of the vitamins and minerals are.
You can but from what I have seen with Shawn Baker MD, and their podcast you an do well without them. But, you are right they have lots of vitamins and minerals that are amazing for your body.
And dairy. And shellfish.
@@BGRecon Check Weston Price and Vilhjalmur Stefansson's works - indigenous people prized organs and fat over lean cuts because of high micronutrients. And Shawn Baker was referring on RDA, but they are only to prevent deficiencies, not for optimal health. Check out Frank Tufano's latest videos about it, he has great points on this topic. P.S. sorry for my english 🙂
@@BGRecon technically you can do without them but you need to find another source for the nutrients that organ meats provide. At the very least take cod liver oil.
They aren't necessary, but can be eaten. The fattier cuts of meat, especially ruminant animal meat like beef or lamb, are the most critical for success. Ruminant animal meat is the only safe meat to eat undercooked or raw IF it is handled correctly. And the closer to raw it is, the less degraded the fat soluble vitamins will be. Vitamins are destroyed in heat.
LMAO! The Dad is hilarious!
You guys left out electrolytes. Gotta have salt in there.
I am on day 40 of my 2 month carnivore experiment moving from keto. I am happy to admit that I have broken my one and a half year weight loss plateau. I think cutting out nuts, seeds and cheese has what allowed my body to break through the plateau. I have lost 6 lbs so far and feel good. It is simple and I feel like I'm hitting all my nutrient targets. However, like you guys, I miss variety and will implement more keto carbs back into my diet after those two months.
Couldn't it be possible most of the weight loss is due to water loss? Since carbs tend to hold a lot of water
That's a good point. I lost a ton of water weight initially when I went low carb. But Brandon's weight loss seems like too much to be just water?
@@tkshillinz9334 Since Brandon has more muscle than the average person it could still be water weight, we of course can't tell for sure
When you're carnivore, you're also on keto, because your body has no sugar intake and it's running off of ketones.
@@Jacob011 yes indeed
Okay!! Here's why you were having no energy and brain fog. You need SALT!!! Good clean salt is everything on carnivore or keto diet. Your body was very low on minerals. When you wake up, you need to start your day with salt water, then of course you need water throughout the day. You need to make sure to have your electrolytes or else you will have keto flu for a very long time. And no, you don't need carbs for energy at all and your brain runs better on ketones than glucose. Your body produces ketones and burns fat as your source of energy and that's a much better energy source than carbs. If you do carnivore the right way, your energy level will be amazing. Also, add beef liver to your diet.
I tried this challange for weightloss. But could only sustain it for 13 days before goin nuts. But... The results were insane which i didnt notice till a week after i quit the diet. I lost 26 pounds in under 4 weeks. Serious skin sag.

Thats what i found. Also using actual salt helps.
“Bye-bye, Daddy.” My daughter just runs around saying “die, die, die!”
03:55 crazy how eggs are almost double the price now than they were three years ago
Yeah but they are back down a year later from when you commented 😂
Excellent Buff Dudes, I love how you try to keep your opinions imparcial as much as you can. I can offer you my life experience in this matter.
I'm from Uruguay, a country with twice the amount of cattle than humans, were we have one of the longest life expectancies in the world, before the appearance of fast food places we even had one of the leanest population, we as the Argentinians and in the South of Brazil had and have a similar way of eating, and it is: Meat Meat Meat, "The asado" one of the cuts of cow ribs grilled its our national food, but for good sake not cooked on the fire or in top of coal, but on top of the EMBERS, that grants you the correct amount of heat but not the contaminants from the combustion. We eat meat like no other places in the world; there's even a common say here when someone offers you salad with your meet, jokingly of course, you may hear someone replaying: "Im not a cow to eat grass, thank you" so imagine... carnivore Diet may sound rare to many but it's tested for generations here.
Keep the excellence Guys
HUGE difference, though. Your cattle are grass fed. American cattle is grain fed and grown in disgusting factory farms.
yeah.
I've heard Argentinians and Uruguayans eat lots of meat and are famous for their cattle farms. and gauchos.
Latin cowboys.
It's a shame that the reputation you guys had for grass fed beef was ruined with all the GMO feed the cattle are being fed.
I love your videos and how fun you make them! Although it's hard to understand why you would do a carnivore diet back-to-back with a vegan diet - this is surely wreaking absolute havoc on your precious gut biome. You are what you eat and all your little buff dudes in your gut and inflammatory system need at least some kind of consistency or gradual change at the least. Please take care of yourselves and if you continue such videos, consider the impact of shocking your systems (not only does it affect gut biome, but all hormones and cell functioning).
Thanks for the laughs :)
Great advice ❤
Dude your dad is a legend and fits in your skits Perfectly. I was crying on the canibal skit 😂
I love seeing this. I've been on a very low carb diet similar to this with a few salads thrown in including it with intermittent fasting and have gotten fantastic results. I've been documenting it here on RUclips, and in doing so find it so interesting to watch other people's videos on how it worked for them as well.
Damn Respect to yall for getting through this xD I tried 4 days before & got constipated AF so I had to stop hahaha
hi man love your work on your channel deffentnaly tough like toonz
JaxBlade you obviously did it wrong then - I had 2 days of no motion then boom
Yes it's not healthy bruh
Jero ignorance is not a good look.
@@Mrclean431 yeh you're right but it's unhealthy tho telling me if I'm lying.
Omg buff baby is too flippin cute
From what I've learned the brain fog from carnivor diet can be fixed with more fat, salt, and drinking more water.
@@alidacriatian7834 who the hell wants to eat raw liver mate
@@Realrookietrucker122 Just chop up some liver finely and mix it into your minced meat with some cheese and sauce.
yeah, thats true
when insuline is lower (when you eat low or zero carbs) kidneys release a lot of sodium
so add salt
Salt iis a must on carnivore diet
I crack up at every "Meat" 😂😂😂🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️ & then had the baby in on it too saying meat & bacon 😂
I love how US Costco is almost identical to the UK ones!
Looks like Canada to lol
It would be interesting to see when you do these experiments what the difference is between starting and ending cholesterol and sugar levels.
Lack of electrolytes could be the reason for no pump plus lack of energy.
This, Carnivores need more sodium(salt) in the diet to process the protein and fats. In nature, or tribal societies they use the blood for soup or pudding. If anyone recalls the taste of their own blood from a cut, its extremely salty. Its the same of other animals where we'd get this as a source of nutrition, also blood is extremely nutrient rich.
The demonization of salt is another pseudo scientific fraud meant to harm the public just like the discredited "bad cholesterol hypothesis".
Or it could be the fact that you're eating just MEAT. 🤦♂️
@@Bathoggywinger i love how people on the carnivore diet reference some kind of idealistic society from thousands of years ago as the baseline for a healthful diet lol. pretty sure they would have some of the shortest life spans haha. the appeal to nature fallacy is strong in this one :P
@@Demondoink1 it's not fallacy. it's called evolutionary biology.
@@Bathoggywinger and bone marrow/broth as well.
when he said dad I was like tf? the whole time I thought he was younger skater boy brother or something 😂
Your father in this video is a truly gem, like in all, but here he deserves an Oscar XDD. Well done guys, mixing knowledge with fun. That's the way to go for entertainment and education.
I'm almost positive that 30 days isn't long enough to go beyond the honeymoon period of a diet shift. But good video regardless!
6 weeks is the usual adaptation phase, it can take months though.
Agree - needs 3 strict months
You need to increase salt intake and it would boost your mindset. The sluggishness is actually related to dehydration from lack of carbs to help you retain water
That and lack of organ meat
Potassium and magnesium as well
Increase your salt to get more healthy?? Wow bro
that's not how hydration and fluid balance works
@@berengerchristy6256 actually it does
I remember when I did Keto it too about 2 weeks for my body to adjust and my energy levels to recalibrate. After that I felt great. Then I shifted to carnivore and I remember it really helped my brain. When I woke up I was UP. No sleepiness. I was awake and ready to cook breakfast and do a morning workout.
Did you have salt or no salt as a carnivore?
@@Jewlz4ever I had salt.
@@trollnips9405 are you still carnivore?
@@Jewlz4ever unfortunately I fell off the wagon. My body is messed up again and I've been trying to get back into carnivore
@@trollnips9405 oh okay. I was carnivore earlier this year but couldn’t stick to it bc it gave me really bad heart palpitations, whether I ate sea salt or not. I’m not sure what to do.
I just started the carnivore diet Mon 10/12 and I can already tell a difference with my energy I am also fasting started with the 16hrs and now doing the 20 with the 5hr eating window3-8pm.... I’m so pumped and SUPER excited to be on this journey.... yesterday when I weighed I was down 3lbs.... I’m of course hoping to loose weight but I’m more so hoping to be healthy and I know the weight lost will come soon there after.... Wish me well guys .... I thought about doing a channel on my journey a lot of people tell us after the fact I think it would be nice to see someone loose weight right before your eyes not just with pics but like a everyday or at least every other day process. If this is something you might want to see thumbs up this comment so I know and I will get it started
hows it going so far?
Any updates?
Are you still in the land of the living?
be careful with that 25 hour day
YES Please that would be great 👍( too see a daily video of your carnivore journey)
Thank you soldiers for fighting the battles we never could
This was very entertaining. I couldn't stop laughing. I have been on the carnivor diet for a little over 30 days now and I have lost 22 pounds. I'm doing the diet to lose weight and lower my BP ..and other health issues. So far so good. Wish me luck.
Good luck!
Now you know how people with common sense feel listening and reading your comments referring to yourselves as "Carnivores" when humans are far from it.
Very entertaining, can't stop laughing.
Wow! 22 Lbs in 30 days is impressive. May I ask what was your starting weight?
Gluconegensis isn’t finding other means to process energy. It’s literally making glucose from other macros such as protein.
Exactly. So much of this video was done wrong and misguided these guys clearly have no idea what they are doing
@@summondominion They aren't pretending to be. They are just giving it a go
@Donald Hariot it's slower and less efficient because in nature if you have access to lots of protein you jave access to fat, which is where all the fuel for your muscles and brain comes from. Gluconeogenesis doesn't have to be effective because when you're in ketosis your body only needs a small amount of glucose to sustain certain glands. I'm not an athlete but as a 2 month carnivore I didn't notice lack of energy. On the contrary my muscles never hurt after a workout and I seem to easily put on muscle mass.
