Very interested in joining to help with my hashimotos. Last time i tried carnivore I ended up with a terrible ulcer and severely low potassium with severe muscle spasms. I’m hesitant due to this
@@jeri5027 Blood types are a big factor, but not the only one. The great majority of O positives (but not all) do better on carnivore than anything else. This is not as studied in the U.S. as elsewhere as corporations want one size fits all systems that are marketable.
Bella, your pleasing visage and melodious voice moderated Bart's normally abrasive, Tasmanian Devil style, thus allowing me to listen and keep my heartrate down.
Bella, I absolutely agree!! Carnivore has helped me lose 26lbs and I don't count anything. It's the only lifestyle where I naturally feel full and I can stop eating 🤣
@@inspiringminds7284 def agree, calories still matter. I m carnivore 3 weeks and while i ve lost some weight it s def not as been advertised. Biggest issue for me is sustainability, i m starting to get sick of meat. I m already thinking going back to keto. I m salivating by just looking to salads. I think whole real food diet is the key whether it s keto carnivore paleo or vegan. If you eat crap you re gonna feel crap
@@gameover-wy5ij, We shouldn't be slaves to these extreme ways of eating. I have no desire to eat only meat or food derived from animals. I still consume fruit and non starchy vegetables.
Same! I've never been so satisfied! I used to do low carb/ keto-ish & ALWAYS fought cravings. Cravings are not even in sight on carnivore. Such freedom!
It's it possible to eat to little. I try to eat as much meat as I can, but it does not seem like much. I get you don't need to worry about eating too much necessarily, but do we need to be concerned with not eating enough. I still have very low energy and wonder if I'm doing something wrong.
First comment I can relate to I’ve been doing carnivore 2 months an lately I can’t even finish my one meal a day right when I start eating I get full and have to force myself to eat . I just feel sick and I know I’m probably only getting 900 calories a day I do get tired and I’m not sleeping through the night I started off strong hungry because I was eating standard American diet around the clock I’ve lost 23 pounds pretty quick but it’s tapered off now. Came here to find out if I can be ok just eating under my calories for my age on carnivore
The most important point as to why calories dont matter is because its hormone dependant. INSULIN is the bodies FAT STORAGE hormone. Without insulin the human body cannot store fat..this is why type 1 diabetics have such a hard time maintaining their weight. When you consume CARBS..SUGARS it spikes insulin...and whenever that happens it increases FAT STORAGE. Consuming FATS have no effect on insulin which is why a keto and carnivore diet results in FAT LOSS without feeling hungry.
I remember when I first came across one of your videos for the first time and you was eating raw meat I thought you was crazy but now I'm all in carnivore all day 😅😅😂👍😁
@@SteakandButterGal It doesn't make a difference either way because sadly people are stuck in their ways and say..well, it's only RUclips, my doctor doesn't tell me this or that.

@@thefoxt6556 He's lying, unless he didn't report a huge change in activity levels. It's virtually impossible to lose weight on 6.5k calories at his weight/size unless he's got untreated hyperthyroidism or massive activity levels
I am one who doesn't count calories. I haven't had to on an animal based diet. I eat when I'm hungry (typically twice a day) and I eat until I am full. The low carb, animal based lifestyle has changed my life!
Sos so true. I fasted way to much and started to suffer. Fasting over 36 is getting so hard and feel weak started gaining weight. Woah, stopped fasting back to eating alot. Feel.so much better now and sadly gained 2 pounds. Fast with care people
It can be dangerous if you are unclean. Too many toxins released at once leading to toxicity of the blood and inability of the liver to process everything. Should be done when one is prepared for it.

What a fantastic session. I'd like to request you to please do more elaborate and detailed sessions with this distinguished gentleman. Thank you so much, Bella and Professor Bart.
One of the best videos I watched this week. When I switched to Carnivore, I was eating more than I thought and I actually broke my weight plateau of 160. Now sitting at about 150. Time for priming and fasting. My longest was 31 of fasting
How do you prevent muscle scavenging during a long fast? You would think your body would eat itself from the inside out if you have little body fat to sustain energy?
I was there. Then I came to know that I had microbiome issues in my digestive tract that made me get to feel bloated. Maybe that is what your issue is also? I still have to do as you suggest to do, that being to eat more than one or two meals a day most days. But, I now know that some foods effect me one way and others another way. I admit I just have to adjust... the feelings are very obvious at times.
I felt same way when I started, I ate when hungry and ate until stuffed in a week or so realized I was only eating twice daily and that works great for me. I find if I’m wanting to snack it’s either not eating enough at my meals or emotional. Best Wishes
I find that the feeling of fullness for me in carnivore is not that my belly is full and popping its not necessarily a fullness from volume ... it's almost a brain hormone that tells me if I have another bite I'll be nauseous... the volume of food is not that large when that happens for me
What you eat is more important than how much you eat. 800 calories of beef liver will sustain you MANY times longer than 800 Calories of Any vegetable (Veggies are what FOOD eats!)
2 things 1. I would not recommend eating that much, liver often from what I’m aware you’ll be getting a big excess copper and vitamin A which can cause issues longterm 2. It really depends on the vegetable, sure from white rice it’s not as good as meat for getting full, but try eating 800 cals of ANY green vegetable, even with lower calorie condiments, unless you cook it in shit tons of oil getting 800 cals of broccoli is fucking hard
I've lost 68 pounds in 10 months on carnivore BY COUNTING CALORIES!!! Before that I tried without counting and didn't lose a pound for a month, so f..k all those who say you shouldn't count calories on carnivore! I also noticed that I need much less calories by eating more beef (instead of pork, chicken, or fish).
Just subscribed after watching several of your videos that was recommended to me. Love your approach to the subject and I really like how you present your videos. I'm not fully carnivore at all like you are, but I am slowly working my way towards it.
5,700 calories a week is too MANY calories??? I'm confused. Less than 700 a day? I'm all for everything else but this comment at the beginning had me perplexed. Dry fast - difficult when living in the desert in 100 to 110 heat and being active... any alternatives?
According to the CICO hypothesis, if I drink a liter of refridgerated water ( at sea level of course), my GI tract will heat it up to body temperature, and so I have "burned" 30 kcal? No? ..hilarious...
@@davidtomkins4242 Really? Well, it's produced in the mitochondria, some as chemical energy and some as heat. When body temperature gets lowered, more heat is produced to maintain homeostasis..
Interesting on the Dry Fast for 3 days. I just completed 3 days fast from Tue to Fri. I lost 5 lb from 131 to 126. I estimated that I lost about 1 to 2 lb of fat, the rest was water lb. I want to try dry fast, but I sweat during my work, & I just cannot imagine not to replenish my water lost. Will dry fast be safe for someone who sweat during work? I already found myself with higher heartbeats during fasting, maybe because of the caffeine from coffee.
cole Robinson on RUclips calls this death fasting. if I remember right he dry fasts and then sits in a sauna for an hour as his means of creating sweat or more of a water deficit . during the night your body breaks down it's fat stores for that metabolic water. He claims someone could lose up to 100lbs in a month! Not sure if anyone has tried it. I'm about to start a 30 day dry fast and use a portable sauna. going to maybe look for a coach but I believe God will give me a warning if I'm close to hurting my body. I've asked Him about it and this man mentioning the part about metabolic water seems like another confirmation from God! fasting seems like the best option for me as I get discouraged easily and am worried about my metabolism slowing down too much. also I think the autophagy might help with loose skin. trying to lose 100lbs as fast and "safe" as possible. (Not sure if this is 100% safe but neither is being 100lbs overweight) I'm afraid of exercising while prolonged fasting because muscle will break down but since there is no intake of protein I'm confused as to how they will be repaired. I know human growth hormone increases with fasting but I'm not sure it's enough to maintain muscle while lifting weights. some lift with the theory of use it or lose it bit I'm not sure if they're doing 3 day or longer fasts.
While I can see what he's saying that if you just eat as much as you want, your metabolic rate will increase and you "can go do more physical activity" to compensate. However, for us average people that have jobs and families and our available time is already maxed out with as much physical activity as we can fit in, what do we do then? If we just eat as much as we want, but are unable to really add more physical activity then we just gain weight (fat and probably some muscle I'd wager). Is there a place where we can actually calculate more of a "carnivore" lifestyle metabolic rate with the more accurate measurements of energy content of food (like mentioned in the talk)? Would be interested to see if some of these nutritionist-types have come up with anything to share.
Just track your weight on the bathroom scale and also by the way your clothes fit. On this "diet" its not uncommon for your weight to go up a little but your clothes get looser.
Camels do not store water.. They store fat. Whenever they need the water on harsh conditions, they extract the water from that excess fat. Very similar to what is explained at the end of the video about the dry fast.
how do i know the quality of lamb liver? i recently been buying it from a local store instead of grass fed beef liver online. lamb costs a little more and tastes way sweeter and better than the bitter cow liver but i'm not sure about the quality
Can you ask the butcher for details of where it’s sourced? That’s what I do. And if you eat it cooked, it’s not as crucial to get the absolute freshest and highest quality liver.
Toxins store in the glands and organs. When it comes to liver if it tastes good and is somewhat sweet then it’s very healthy. Taste is everything you can in fact taste toxins. So if your senses like it it’s fine!
@@vincentlaw6985 toxins don't get stored in organs. The liver filters toxins but doesn't store them, after being filtered, the toxins go out through urine or feces, or sweat possibly.
@@w1975b then why would someone taste a difference in toxic liver vs non toxic sweet taste? To say that no toxins store there is a lie you can taste the shit

That was an awesome discussion. It ready helps clear up the CICO myth and explains how we use and metabolize foods. The fasting process described also was very enlightening.
@@cameronsmith7328 Ken Berry MD has a really good video on why calories are not a good measure. It’s titled COUNTING CALORIES IS STUPID it was posted 5 years ago. We don’t burn calories, we assimilate and use nutrients from what we eat.
@@keithosterkamp6207 of course we do but if we eat too many nutrients above our maintenance which contain calories differing from nutrients our body will process that into body fat containing calories
@@cameronsmith7328 if calorie counting was effective Weight Watchers would have been out of business by now. It’s just not that simple. Our bodies are very intelligent but when you keep eating all your “calories” as Sugar and Starch your insulin can’t help but pack it away as fat and you get the obesity epidemic we have now. Fat and protein are not treated the same. Calorie is a general term used to describe the embodiment of energy in food that is made up of macro and micronutrients which we use as building blocks for new cells and for energy for existing cells.
@@keithosterkamp6207 but every macro nutrient has a purpose. Such as if you workout daily carbs are extremely beneficial to refill glycogen efficiently to keep energy high. I eat a low sugar diet generally but calorie couting has always worked for me. Ive tried a load of other diets and im a big eater but ultimately i found out the hard way its calories
Thanks for the video. I have a terrible relationship with food were out of point when I was pretty skinny I was only eating around 500 to 800 cal a day because I was so desperate to stay skinny. I’m just trying to have a better relationship with food and eat food that I love so thanks for this video because it’s going to put my mind at ease I think from now on.
Danke. Wenn ich so viel esse ohne Kalorien zahlen, dann nehme ich zu. Ich habe vor 3 Wochen mit Carnivore angefangen und habe schon 6 Kg zugenommen obwohl ich 16 abnehmen wollte 😳 was kann ich jetzt tuen?
This video blows my mind,the way Bart talks on carbs fat protein, on how it works in the body ,make so make sense now ,specially on how much to eat,,i said to my self now I can eat more now thankyou 😇
I lost 100 lbs counting calories 10 years ago. That was great, but I ruined my metabolism. Now, I basically have to be on a diet for the rest of my life to keep from gaining it back. The carnivore way-of-eating is food freedom for me. I can literally eat as much as I want, feel good, and lose weight.
Calories in and calories out has not worked for me and I’m glad to hear I’m not going crazy. I have previously lost weight with that method, but I had to seriously restrict my calories to 1100 a day and basically be starving all the time. I have no idea if I’ll loose weight on carnivore, but I’m for sure feeling better, not starving, and not craving food that make me feel bad.
You definitely will lose weight eventually but how much and how soon varies depending on how much healing you have to do. The body prioritises healing and weight loss comes eventually. I found that as a T2 diabetic I lost 40lbs first very fast and then nothing happened for over a year! However, arthritis, neuropathy and tons of stuff went away. Don’t get discouraged just keep going and all the best to you
@@jennygibbons1258 thanks!!! I’ve finally lost some weight. Slow, but it’s there. I do feel way better. More energy, less migraines, skin conditions cleared up. It’s definitely worth sticking to.
I still gaining weight so I start to think that's not for petite women... I will continue up to 3 months and if this continues I will start counting calories and add low carb vegetables.
SBG also gained weight early on in her carnivore journey & she chalked it up to needing the excess calories to regain the nutrition she had been lacking on a vegan diet. Eventually her hunger & weight normalized & she is the beauty that you see today. Petite or not we are all the same basic metabolism. You have to give this more than 3 months or you're just treating it like a fad diet expecting overnight success and it doesn't always work that way.
I'm short and I totally disagree, eat and.eat again. Food heals but have to eat carnivore no carbs. Mix carbs then yes you get fat. I eat 3000 up easy and I lost 40 pounds down to 130
@Mishko Mishko It's a diet for optimal human health. Eat enough food, and there's no reason that a lean person would start losing weight with keto or carnivore.
Watching your expressions and reactions to your guest adds such an element of entertainment to your very high quality content. I listen intently to the content you provide while at the same time, I can't stop watching you and your expressions and reactions. Please keep it up. Bart Kay is the best.
I think the industrial revolution up to our modern growing and processing methods is where most of the problem is. The people groups eating their traditional diets, sometimes including plants and, for some, properly prepared grains, etc. thrived for thousands of years. Dr. Price observed and studied their various diets, in person. So, no need to try to go back "hundreds of thousands" of years or think we MUST eat 100% meat to have robust health. I rarely see or hear people mention or know about Dr. Price. It seems many go from SAD to keto/carnivore. Read Nutrition and Physical Degeneration by Dr. Price. By the way, I'm not bashing carnivore, just looking at all angles and evidence. 🙂
OMG Calories. I have a past difficult relationship with calories and started carnivore without counting calories but since I am now working i with a coach I began tracking food in general so i could tweak it. I was thinking from a macros point of view so if I had any gut issues I could adjust and because if I want to do bikini transformation competition like I do that it would give me the information needed to effectively tweak things coming up to show prep but when I entered it in to my fitness pal it only gave me the option to track by calories so I started noticing them and slipping back into the old holding back not daring to go over calories. It lead me to not lose much weight this week and feel rubbish and even sample non carnivore food which made me feel utterly rubbish so I ignore calories now and literally document what I eat so I have reference if I need it but I don't pay any attention to the calories. Anyway its working as approaching my week 6 weigh in and already 3lbs down! Boom!
I want to do sbg with coach Raymond's, Bart's & Emily's program... but I'm terrified to gain more than the 20lbs I gained when I first began carnivore & I come from a background of disordered eating, so the fasting stirs all that back up. How do I begin?
I just wanna say your videos are encouraging and I started the carnivore diet eight days ago I still get a little nauseous but I know I’m gonna keep going until I break through the wall and get fat adapted but other than that I’m starting to feel better thank you again
have you seen the amount of calories this woman eats in a day though? She was eating like 40 eggs, 3 large steaks, and a block of butter every day for quite a while at one point. Same with so many of the carnivore people. they're literally chowing down on whole blocks of butter with huge steaks and other forms of meat (with all the fat attached to it), and losing massive amounts of weight and healing all sorts of health issues they previously had. Then maintaining their weight loss and renewed health for years while still chowing down on a seemingly endless supply of surplus calories. And it's not just one or two people, it's freaking hundreds of them. I was really against even the idea of this sort of way of eating for years, but I've been watching interviews and podcasts and personal accounts for around 2 weeks now and am generally baffled by how it flies in the face of almost everything we think we know, _while_ being massively successful and healing people of years of pain and suffering. Maybe calorie restriction is only necessary on a ''normal'' diet? because for some reason it seems totally unnecessary on carnivore.
I've lost 68 pounds in 10 months on carnivore BY COUNTING CALORIES!!! Before that I tried without counting and didn't lose a pound for a month, so f..k all those who say you shouldn't count calories on carnivore! I also noticed that I need much less calories by eating more beef (instead of pork, chicken, or fish).
So the basic energy balance becomes effective energy from food consumed - basal metabolic rate(variable)-energy expenditure: (all the energy consumed is not processed entirely by the body) it's just a bomb calorimetry measurement of how much energy each gram of macronutrient contains.
He really didn’t answer your 80/20 question he only said that modern plants and fruits weren’t the answer because they are selectively bread you asked him what should make up the other 20% and when it went back to you I thought you would ask him but what foods are these that can produce the scfa but you didn’t you moved on to the next question so what should that 20% besides animal meats as the 80% be?
Bart said the fibrous tubers before humans starting making them more enjoyable. There's no reason to force yourself to only eat 80% animal foods, though and try to eat 20% of something else. If it's a choice between 100% carnivore of fat and meat vs 80% animal foods and 20% super tough fibrous plants that are hard to find....I pick the first. Sounds like trying to make an excuse to eat plants. Butter directly contains butyrate, an scfa. There are probably other animal foods which do as well. If that's why anyone wants scfa. Ghee does as well, at least per the quick search I did. If lactose is a problem.
Wwll, I don't know if this is for me. 11 days today, lost 5 lbs and gained it back. Blood sugar is not going down at all. I'm so frustrated to the point of angry. I've been following the rules strictly.
How is your sleep & general stress level, Debra? I ask this bcz stress, incl lack of adequate sleep, has an astonishing impact on our ability to lose weight. I am a good example of this. i am generally a poor sleeper, often getting only 4 to 5 hrs sleep, sometimes less. And for the last six months, on a keto & now carnivore lifestyle while also striving to get more sleep, I have watched my weight drop easily whenever I have been sleeping well, but go right back up the day after a poor night's sleep. I have observed this happen over & over. In fact, I watched my weight go up 10 lbs recently when I didn't sleep well for 4 days in a row! And that could only have been the reason bc nothing else in my diet had changed & I had been losing weight before that. So bcz of my own experience, my first thought is that you may be experiencing something similar. However, if that doesn't fit your situation, there are a number of videos available online that address the main "keto mistakes" that prevent fat loss. Hope you find your answer there & achieve great future success on achieving your health goals.
have you tried doing intermittent fasting or one meal a day? first time i did it in 2018 i lost most my bodyfat in 3 weeks and got sixpack abs in 3 weeks
The 5 lbs is probably only water weight. It took me close to 3 months before I saw improvements in my blood sugar. Now I'm close to normal A1c after 6 months. Hang in there it'll happen. I think the health reasons are more than enough to stay carnivore... I'm off all my bp meds after being on them since 1986!!!
What are you eating in a day ? You may need to lower your fat intake or some leaner days also electrolytes are important. Cutting carbs your body doesn't hold onto water which also you'll lose electrolytes. Give it more time 60-90 days, don't focus on the scale instead how are your clothes fitting is a better judge.
He just explained how he's burning more calories because his metabolic rate went up therefore indicating burning more calories. Wich equals calories out. So yes calories in and calories out makes sense.
Bloody fantastic information 👌 Bart is so informative, we need people like him to get the right way of eating for a healthier lifestyle, Bart should get a MBE,,OR A MEDAL 🏅 AND YOU BUTTER GIRL KEEP DOING GOOD VIDEO 😇
Yes, but it is a bit more complicated than that. Since your body is mostly water, then losing water is expected. Here is what happens: 1. When you start keto/carnivore, you don't eat much new glucose/carbohydrates, so your body uses the glucose stored in your liver and muscles instead. This stored glucose is called glycogen, and it contains either 3 or 4 grams of water for every gram of glucose. So if your liver contains 454g (a pound) of usable glucose, then you will also lose around 3.5 pounds of water weight as well. Conversely, when you stop keto, it will come right back. 2. The same ratio applies to your muscle glycogen, however this is a larger reserve and takes longer to deplete. In addition, muscle glycogen can only be utilized within the muscle itself, so it does not really impact your blood sugar readings or ketosis. 3. Then, the reduction of carbohydrates lower your insulin level (etc. etc.) and that in turn helps reduce any associated systemic inflammation. This is perhaps the most dangerous weight you carry, and it basically presents as Edema. I have seen lots of reports from very obese dieters (like 700 pounds) who have lost 50 pounds in one month and 100 pounds in four months on keto. This is the kind of "water weight" that really needs to go to help your heart.
Calories are not grossly inaccurate. People's estimates might be but if measured correctly CICO works very accurately for predicting weight gain or loss! And I mean weight. Bart is missing the point here! Yes metabolism varies depending on what we eat and how much, and yes he ate more calories for two weeks and guess what? His metabolic rate went up so he burned more calories than he was eating so he was in a deficit and he lost weight! It's still CICO! "If you eat more food you tend to be more active" ie. we eat more Cals we burn more Cals.. = CICO! The point about protein not having 4Cals is not correct either! Yes some of the energy from protein is used for other purposes.. but we know this and it still has 4Cals /g! Yes we can eat 30% more protein than fats or carbs due to this and not put on weight and we know this.. 30% of the energy from protein is used for other purposes than just providing energy and so our metabolic rate goes up 30% when we eat protein and that means CICO is still valid! Also Bart says at the beginning about CICO being valid with a yes and a no and went on to say that if we eat at 1000Cal deficit we will lose weight. Similarly it can be said that if we eat 1000Cals surplus we will gain weight. 1000Cals is not the magic number. The recommended 500Cals will do the same job. Basically he said in a caloric deficit we will lose weight and in a caloric surplus we will gain weight.. Therefore CICO is still 100% valid! And unless Bart can come up with a better measurement than Calories then CICO is also the only way to track the energy. Oh yeah.. and guess what.. fasting is a calorie deficit! Do you put weight on whilst fasting? No..
A lot of people lose weight on Carnivore without even realizing that they're only eating once a day so they're in a pretty big calorie deficit if you just eating one meal a day you might not even eat 2000 calories so basically they're Calorie restricting without even knowing it

The most important point as to why calories dont matter is because its hormone dependant. INSULIN is the bodies FAT STORAGE hormone. Without insulin the human body cannot store fat..this is why type 1 diabetics have such a hard time maintaining their weight. When you consume CARBS..SUGARS it spikes insulin...and whenever that happens it increases FAT STORAGE. Consuming FATS have no effect on insulin which is why a keto and carnivore diet results in FAT LOSS without feeling hungry.
Sorry been debunked insulin can’t make you fat without excess energy

I think that guy is full of crap
Eat for life 😘💕
The Year of the Tiger is a great time to go Carnivore: The Tiger Diet 🥩
AGREED!
Hmmmm….im a Wood Tiger apparently - finally a good luck year for me 🙃
Let's go tigers! 👏
You're interviews are always so smart and thought provoking!
Thank you, Michele!
I try to tell people this information and they all think I'm insane.
Share this video with them ;)
@@SteakandButterGal It doesn't make a difference either way because sadly people are stuck in their ways and say..well, it's only RUclips, my doctor doesn't tell me this or that. I tried this with my nutrition teacher and all i get is backlash. I still get the whole...well, meat rots in your colon and I'm sooo backed up because I don't poop that often....it's just crazy how mainstream media demonizes something they care to know nothing about because they know it will take away from what they have been taught in medical school or what not and people just don't want to acknowledge it and brush it off as a FAD:(
Happened with me and my brother, who indulges in tons of “fake meat”, junk etc with terrible weight, health and mood. Unfortunate
@@billkos7993 We must also consider who the MSM are working for, which would be GMO agriculture, big pharma, fast food co.'s~ big business in general. The media will always sell what they are being paid to sell. Same goes for the medical & scientific community who choose to hitch their wagon, rather than being of independent thought, research & practice~ which simply does not pay as well. Those who do 'go rogue', aka; tell & teach the truth, are usually demonized, ignored or worse!
Humans must refuse to accept such tactics, do our own research, & take personal responsibility for our own health & well-being. Truth stands on it's own, with or w/out us. We must choose to stand. Over time, others are then encouraged to do the same~ it's the old adage about leading a horse to water, right? =)
I can't wait for more of Professor Kay's teachings in one of Bella's February Challenge Meatings! 🤓🎉
I can’t either!!! 😊❤️🙌🏼
To imply calories don't matter for fat loss is moronic. Energy balance is ALL that matters for fat loss....
How does one lose weight eating 6.5k calories a day
@@thefoxt6556 if someone is actually consuming that many kcals and losing weight, they're either incredibly active or can't count calories correctly
@@ck-rd2ce so youre saying he's lying then.
@@thefoxt6556 He's lying, unless he didn't report a huge change in activity levels. It's virtually impossible to lose weight on 6.5k calories at his weight/size unless he's got untreated hyperthyroidism or massive activity levels
I am one who doesn't count calories. I haven't had to on an animal based diet. I eat when I'm hungry (typically twice a day) and I eat until I am full.
The low carb, animal based lifestyle has changed my life!
Great vid! Thank you! I love it when lies and corruption are exposed. I have found in my research that this type of corruption is not just in health.
Thank you for watching! Agreed.

Sos so true. I fasted way to much and started to suffer. Fasting over 36 is getting so hard and feel weak started gaining weight. Woah, stopped fasting back to eating alot. Feel.so much better now and sadly gained 2 pounds. Fast with care people
Never heard that about dry fasting before. The whole breaking down fat to create water for the body bit... fascinating!
It can be dangerous if you are unclean. Too many toxins released at once leading to toxicity of the blood and inability of the liver to process everything. Should be done when one is prepared for it.
You look amazing in red. Happy Chinese New Year!
Your communication skills, content organization and interview/facilitation skills are better and better. I am really impressed. You are an artist but with scientist’s logic and mind. 👍

Look for videos with Dr Sally K Norton. She is phenomenal.

What a fantastic session. I'd like to request you to please do more elaborate and detailed sessions with this distinguished gentleman. Thank you so much, Bella and Professor Bart.
Bart has videos on his channel that go in much more detail
What a fantastic interview! Looking forward to see Bart in the February challenge.
This was awesome. More like this please. 👍😁.
You got it!
One of the best videos I watched this week.
When I switched to Carnivore, I was eating more than I thought and I actually broke my weight plateau of 160. Now sitting at about 150.
Time for priming and fasting.
My longest was 31 of fasting
Wow.
How do you prevent muscle scavenging during a long fast? You would think your body would eat itself from the inside out if you have little body fat to sustain energy?
Bart’s looking lean. In great shape.
My only problem with feasting is I despise feeling full. I might have to eat a few times a day to help
Twice a day should do just fine :)
I was there. Then I came to know that I had microbiome issues in my digestive tract that made me get to feel bloated. Maybe that is what your issue is also? I still have to do as you suggest to do, that being to eat more than one or two meals a day most days. But, I now know that some foods effect me one way and others another way. I admit I just have to adjust... the feelings are very obvious at times.
I felt same way when I started, I ate when hungry and ate until stuffed in a week or so realized I was only eating twice daily and that works great for me. I find if I’m wanting to snack it’s either not eating enough at my meals or emotional. Best Wishes
I find that the feeling of fullness for me in carnivore is not that my belly is full and popping its not necessarily a fullness from volume ... it's almost a brain hormone that tells me if I have another bite I'll be nauseous... the volume of food is not that large when that happens for me
What you eat is more important than how much you eat. 800 calories of beef liver will sustain you MANY times longer than 800 Calories of Any vegetable (Veggies are what FOOD eats!)
Liver is for b12 and retinol, not calories/macros.
2 things
1. I would not recommend eating that much, liver often from what I’m aware you’ll be getting a big excess copper and vitamin A which can cause issues longterm
2. It really depends on the vegetable, sure from white rice it’s not as good as meat for getting full, but try eating 800 cals of ANY green vegetable, even with lower calorie condiments, unless you cook it in shit tons of oil getting 800 cals of broccoli is fucking hard
I tried carnivore for 3 months and gained weight. I wasn’t watching the calories and feel like should have.
I've lost 68 pounds in 10 months on carnivore BY COUNTING CALORIES!!! Before that I tried without counting and didn't lose a pound for a month, so f..k all those who say you shouldn't count calories on carnivore!
I also noticed that I need much less calories by eating more beef (instead of pork, chicken, or fish).
Can you tell me how many lbs of meat you eat typically in a day? Thanks
Just subscribed after watching several of your videos that was recommended to me. Love your approach to the subject and I really like how you present your videos. I'm not fully carnivore at all like you are, but I am slowly working my way towards it.
5,700 calories a week is too MANY calories??? I'm confused. Less than 700 a day?
I'm all for everything else but this comment at the beginning had me perplexed.
Dry fast - difficult when living in the desert in 100 to 110 heat and being active... any alternatives?
Carnivore has let me breath through my nose without a pill for the first time in decades on the regular.
According to the CICO hypothesis, if I drink a liter of refridgerated water ( at sea level of course), my GI tract will heat it up to body temperature, and so I have "burned" 30 kcal? No? ..hilarious...
Where does the body get the energy to heat up the water from?
@@davidtomkins4242 Really? Well, it's produced in the mitochondria, some as chemical energy and some as heat. When body temperature gets lowered, more heat is produced to maintain homeostasis..
@@graphicmaterial5947 i might have missed some sarcasm in your first post, i think we agree
Interesting on the Dry Fast for 3 days. I just completed 3 days fast from Tue to Fri. I lost 5 lb from 131 to 126. I estimated that I lost about 1 to 2 lb of fat, the rest was water lb. I want to try dry fast, but I sweat during my work, & I just cannot imagine not to replenish my water lost. Will dry fast be safe for someone who sweat during work? I already found myself with higher heartbeats during fasting, maybe because of the caffeine from coffee.
cole Robinson on RUclips calls this death fasting. if I remember right he dry fasts and then sits in a sauna for an hour as his means of creating sweat or more of a water deficit . during the night your body breaks down it's fat stores for that metabolic water. He claims someone could lose up to 100lbs in a month! Not sure if anyone has tried it. I'm about to start a 30 day dry fast and use a portable sauna. going to maybe look for a coach but I believe God will give me a warning if I'm close to hurting my body. I've asked Him about it and this man mentioning the part about metabolic water seems like another confirmation from God! fasting seems like the best option for me as I get discouraged easily and am worried about my metabolism slowing down too much. also I think the autophagy might help with loose skin. trying to lose 100lbs as fast and "safe" as possible. (Not sure if this is 100% safe but neither is being 100lbs overweight) I'm afraid of exercising while prolonged fasting because muscle will break down but since there is no intake of protein I'm confused as to how they will be repaired. I know human growth hormone increases with fasting but I'm not sure it's enough to maintain muscle while lifting weights. some lift with the theory of use it or lose it bit I'm not sure if they're doing 3 day or longer fasts.
@@extraemail3838 how did that go for you?
I'm all ears for this one!! Contraversial to say the least.
While I can see what he's saying that if you just eat as much as you want, your metabolic rate will increase and you "can go do more physical activity" to compensate. However, for us average people that have jobs and families and our available time is already maxed out with as much physical activity as we can fit in, what do we do then? If we just eat as much as we want, but are unable to really add more physical activity then we just gain weight (fat and probably some muscle I'd wager).
Is there a place where we can actually calculate more of a "carnivore" lifestyle metabolic rate with the more accurate measurements of energy content of food (like mentioned in the talk)? Would be interested to see if some of these nutritionist-types have come up with anything to share.
It's better to calorie restrict if you can't do any more exercise you're just going to get fat if you overeat without using up the energy
Just track your weight on the bathroom scale and also by the way your clothes fit. On this "diet" its not uncommon for your weight to go up a little but your clothes get looser.
More Bart, please! Meat militia!
He rocks!!
Camels do not store water.. They store fat. Whenever they need the water on harsh conditions, they extract the water from that excess fat. Very similar to what is explained at the end of the video about the dry fast.
But calories do matter! Fasting may reset some hormones, yes. However those who fast ultimately have a calorie deficit.
how do i know the quality of lamb liver? i recently been buying it from a local store instead of grass fed beef liver online. lamb costs a little more and tastes way sweeter and better than the bitter cow liver but i'm not sure about the quality
Can you ask the butcher for details of where it’s sourced? That’s what I do.
And if you eat it cooked, it’s not as crucial to get the absolute freshest and highest quality liver.
Toxins store in the glands and organs. When it comes to liver if it tastes good and is somewhat sweet then it’s very healthy. Taste is everything you can in fact taste toxins. So if your senses like it it’s fine!
@@vincentlaw6985 toxins don't get stored in organs. The liver filters toxins but doesn't store them, after being filtered, the toxins go out through urine or feces, or sweat possibly.
@@w1975b then why would someone taste a difference in toxic liver vs non toxic sweet taste? To say that no toxins store there is a lie you can taste the shit
Wow loved this video, what a man, his knowledge blew me away.
Thank you both x

It’s not just about weight loss it’s about cellular repair
I have dry fasted, the benefits include mental and spiritual acuity, intuition, and a loss of fear.
fantastic interview!
did Bart get DE-platformed? I don't see any videos on his channel...???
That was an awesome discussion. It ready helps clear up the CICO myth and explains how we use and metabolize foods. The fasting process described also was very enlightening.
How is CICO a myth?
@@cameronsmith7328 Ken Berry MD has a really good video on why calories are not a good measure. It’s titled COUNTING CALORIES IS STUPID it was posted 5 years ago. We don’t burn calories, we assimilate and use nutrients from what we eat.
@@keithosterkamp6207 of course we do but if we eat too many nutrients above our maintenance which contain calories differing from nutrients our body will process that into body fat containing calories
@@cameronsmith7328 if calorie counting was effective Weight Watchers would have been out of business by now. It’s just not that simple. Our bodies are very intelligent but when you keep eating all your “calories” as Sugar and Starch your insulin can’t help but pack it away as fat and you get the obesity epidemic we have now. Fat and protein are not treated the same. Calorie is a general term used to describe the embodiment of energy in food that is made up of macro and micronutrients which we use as building blocks for new cells and for energy for existing cells.
@@keithosterkamp6207 but every macro nutrient has a purpose. Such as if you workout daily carbs are extremely beneficial to refill glycogen efficiently to keep energy high. I eat a low sugar diet generally but calorie couting has always worked for me. Ive tried a load of other diets and im a big eater but ultimately i found out the hard way its calories
What about Ted? Why Ted wasn't invited? I am sure he would talk respectfully for once in his short life😁
I’m kinda new here. Is the 2 weeks of p. Feasting only to prepare you for fasting?
S&BG, Do you worry about methionine, iron, and cancer?
Red is a Great color on you! Thanks for this interview! 🌷
Thanks for the video. I have a terrible relationship with food were out of point when I was pretty skinny I was only eating around 500 to 800 cal a day because I was so desperate to stay skinny. I’m just trying to have a better relationship with food and eat food that I love so thanks for this video because it’s going to put my mind at ease I think from now on.

Danke. Wenn ich so viel esse ohne Kalorien zahlen, dann nehme ich zu. Ich habe vor 3 Wochen mit Carnivore angefangen und habe schon 6 Kg zugenommen obwohl ich 16 abnehmen wollte 😳 was kann ich jetzt tuen?
I can safely say this is the only lifestyle/diet that really ever worked for me. 👍
Two words sums it up. NO CARBS!
I love ❤️ your Red Bonita Bella

Will fasting slow down your basal metabolic rate?
This video blows my mind,the way Bart talks on carbs fat protein, on how it works in the body ,make so make sense now ,specially on how much to eat,,i said to my self now I can eat more now thankyou 😇
Counting calories is a fool's game. Just let your 'leptin' tell you when you are full.
Great information, my first video seen with Bart. Thank YOu
I lost 100 lbs counting calories 10 years ago. That was great, but I ruined my metabolism. Now, I basically have to be on a diet for the rest of my life to keep from gaining it back. The carnivore way-of-eating is food freedom for me. I can literally eat as much as I want, feel good, and lose weight.
Calories in and calories out has not worked for me and I’m glad to hear I’m not going crazy. I have previously lost weight with that method, but I had to seriously restrict my calories to 1100 a day and basically be starving all the time. I have no idea if I’ll loose weight on carnivore, but I’m for sure feeling better, not starving, and not craving food that make me feel bad.
Same! Ah, to be young and have a raging calorie burning furnace inside (or be male)
You definitely will lose weight eventually but how much and how soon varies depending on how much healing you have to do. The body prioritises healing and weight loss comes eventually. I found that as a T2 diabetic I lost 40lbs first very fast and then nothing happened for over a year! However, arthritis, neuropathy and tons of stuff went away.
Don’t get discouraged just keep going and all the best to you
@@jennygibbons1258 thanks!!! I’ve finally lost some weight. Slow, but it’s there. I do feel way better. More energy, less migraines, skin conditions cleared up. It’s definitely worth sticking to.

@@flinx649 still good
Very informative and interesting.
LOVE that red!!
I still gaining weight so I start to think that's not for petite women... I will continue up to 3 months and if this continues I will start counting calories and add low carb vegetables.
SBG also gained weight early on in her carnivore journey & she chalked it up to needing the excess calories to regain the nutrition she had been lacking on a vegan diet. Eventually her hunger & weight normalized & she is the beauty that you see today. Petite or not we are all the same basic metabolism. You have to give this more than 3 months or you're just treating it like a fad diet expecting overnight success and it doesn't always work that way.
I'm short and I totally disagree, eat and.eat again. Food heals but have to eat carnivore no carbs. Mix carbs then yes you get fat. I eat 3000 up easy and I lost 40 pounds down to 130
@@becksbitofblue great job!
@Mishko Mishko It's a diet for optimal human health. Eat enough food, and there's no reason that a lean person would start losing weight with keto or carnivore.
Watching your expressions and reactions to your guest adds such an element of entertainment to your very high quality content. I listen intently to the content you provide while at the same time, I can't stop watching you and your expressions and reactions. Please keep it up. Bart Kay is the best.
I think the industrial revolution up to our modern growing and processing methods is where most of the problem is. The people groups eating their traditional diets, sometimes including plants and, for some, properly prepared grains, etc. thrived for thousands of years. Dr. Price observed and studied their various diets, in person. So, no need to try to go back "hundreds of thousands" of years or think we MUST eat 100% meat to have robust health.
I rarely see or hear people mention or know about Dr. Price. It seems many go from SAD to keto/carnivore. Read Nutrition and Physical Degeneration by Dr. Price. By the way, I'm not bashing carnivore, just looking at all angles and evidence. 🙂

Happy Year of the Tiger, everyone!
OMG Calories. I have a past difficult relationship with calories and started carnivore without counting calories but since I am now working i with a coach I began tracking food in general so i could tweak it. I was thinking from a macros point of view so if I had any gut issues I could adjust and because if I want to do bikini transformation competition like I do that it would give me the information needed to effectively tweak things coming up to show prep but when I entered it in to my fitness pal it only gave me the option to track by calories so I started noticing them and slipping back into the old holding back not daring to go over calories. It lead me to not lose much weight this week and feel rubbish and even sample non carnivore food which made me feel utterly rubbish so I ignore calories now and literally document what I eat so I have reference if I need it but I don't pay any attention to the calories. Anyway its working as approaching my week 6 weigh in and already 3lbs down! Boom!
I want to do sbg with coach Raymond's, Bart's & Emily's program... but I'm terrified to gain more than the 20lbs I gained when I first began carnivore & I come from a background of disordered eating, so the fasting stirs all that back up. How do I begin?
I just wanna say your videos are encouraging and I started the carnivore diet eight days ago I still get a little nauseous but I know I’m gonna keep going until I break through the wall and get fat adapted but other than that I’m starting to feel better thank you again
Nope- no fluids during a fast! 😳
Such beautiful souls ❤️
Personally idk how all you carnivores go with just meat and salt. I have to have some veggies w butter or I will die and have the runs.
The runs? When I did strict carnivore I didn’t $h1t for a month!
The runs eventually go away as your body adjusts but there is nothing wrong with adding veggies either. Do what works for you.
Bart has said if you change the gut biome too fast, you'll have experiences like that. He did himself, while doing the priming this past month.
Happy New Year to you and yours
Calories do matter. Law of thermodynamics. Too many calories, too little usage, equals storage.
have you seen the amount of calories this woman eats in a day though? She was eating like 40 eggs, 3 large steaks, and a block of butter every day for quite a while at one point. Same with so many of the carnivore people. they're literally chowing down on whole blocks of butter with huge steaks and other forms of meat (with all the fat attached to it), and losing massive amounts of weight and healing all sorts of health issues they previously had. Then maintaining their weight loss and renewed health for years while still chowing down on a seemingly endless supply of surplus calories. And it's not just one or two people, it's freaking hundreds of them. I was really against even the idea of this sort of way of eating for years, but I've been watching interviews and podcasts and personal accounts for around 2 weeks now and am generally baffled by how it flies in the face of almost everything we think we know, _while_ being massively successful and healing people of years of pain and suffering.
Maybe calorie restriction is only necessary on a ''normal'' diet? because for some reason it seems totally unnecessary on carnivore.
@@Vexarax You are going by videos that are snapshots of what they are doing. Many fast during carnivore. This may not be every meal, every time.
Thank you! I do follow Bart, he’s great!
Great stuff, thanks for info
I've lost 68 pounds in 10 months on carnivore BY COUNTING CALORIES!!! Before that I tried without counting and didn't lose a pound for a month, so f..k all those who say you shouldn't count calories on carnivore!

So the basic energy balance becomes effective energy from food consumed - basal metabolic rate(variable)-energy expenditure: (all the energy consumed is not processed entirely by the body) it's just a bomb calorimetry measurement of how much energy each gram of macronutrient contains.
He really didn’t answer your 80/20 question he only said that modern plants and fruits weren’t the answer because they are selectively bread you asked him what should make up the other 20% and when it went back to you I thought you would ask him but what foods are these that can produce the scfa but you didn’t you moved on to the next question so what should that 20% besides animal meats as the 80% be?
Yes I was waiting for that answer too!
Bart said the fibrous tubers before humans starting making them more enjoyable. There's no reason to force yourself to only eat 80% animal foods, though and try to eat 20% of something else. If it's a choice between 100% carnivore of fat and meat vs 80% animal foods and 20% super tough fibrous plants that are hard to find....I pick the first. Sounds like trying to make an excuse to eat plants. Butter directly contains butyrate, an scfa. There are probably other animal foods which do as well. If that's why anyone wants scfa. Ghee does as well, at least per the quick search I did. If lactose is a problem.
Wwll, I don't know if this is for me. 11 days today, lost 5 lbs and gained it back. Blood sugar is not going down at all. I'm so frustrated to the point of angry. I've been following the rules strictly.
11 days is nowhere near long enough to make a judgement. Try 3 to 6 months before giving up on it, unless you absolutely hate it of course.
How is your sleep & general stress level, Debra? I ask this bcz stress, incl lack of adequate sleep, has an astonishing impact on our ability to lose weight.
I am a good example of this. i am generally a poor sleeper, often getting only 4 to 5 hrs sleep, sometimes less. And for the last six months, on a keto & now carnivore lifestyle while also striving to get more sleep, I have watched my weight drop easily whenever I have been sleeping well, but go right back up the day after a poor night's sleep. I have observed this happen over & over.
In fact, I watched my weight go up 10 lbs recently when I didn't sleep well for 4 days in a row! And that could only have been the reason bc nothing else in my diet had changed & I had been losing weight before that.
So bcz of my own experience, my first thought is that you may be experiencing something similar. However, if that doesn't fit your situation, there are a number of videos available online that address the main "keto mistakes" that prevent fat loss. Hope you find your answer there & achieve great future success on achieving your health goals.
have you tried doing intermittent fasting or one meal a day? first time i did it in 2018 i lost most my bodyfat in 3 weeks and got sixpack abs in 3 weeks
The 5 lbs is probably only water weight. It took me close to 3 months before I saw improvements in my blood sugar. Now I'm close to normal A1c after 6 months. Hang in there it'll happen. I think the health reasons are more than enough to stay carnivore... I'm off all my bp meds after being on them since 1986!!!
What are you eating in a day ? You may need to lower your fat intake or some leaner days also electrolytes are important. Cutting carbs your body doesn't hold onto water which also you'll lose electrolytes. Give it more time 60-90 days, don't focus on the scale instead how are your clothes fitting is a better judge.
He just explained how he's burning more calories because his metabolic rate went up therefore indicating burning more calories. Wich equals calories out. So yes calories in and calories out makes sense.
Pseudo science. ;/
Try it instead of being a brainless follower
👏👏👏👏👏
Great video, Barts the man!
Bloody fantastic information 👌 Bart is so informative, we need people like him to get the right way of eating for a healthier lifestyle, Bart should get a MBE,,OR A MEDAL 🏅 AND YOU BUTTER GIRL KEEP DOING GOOD VIDEO 😇
Isn’t the weight is lost initially just water weight?
Yes, but it is a bit more complicated than that. Since your body is mostly water, then losing water is expected. Here is what happens:
1. When you start keto/carnivore, you don't eat much new glucose/carbohydrates, so your body uses the glucose stored in your liver and muscles instead. This stored glucose is called glycogen, and it contains either 3 or 4 grams of water for every gram of glucose. So if your liver contains 454g (a pound) of usable glucose, then you will also lose around 3.5 pounds of water weight as well. Conversely, when you stop keto, it will come right back.
2. The same ratio applies to your muscle glycogen, however this is a larger reserve and takes longer to deplete. In addition, muscle glycogen can only be utilized within the muscle itself, so it does not really impact your blood sugar readings or ketosis.
3. Then, the reduction of carbohydrates lower your insulin level (etc. etc.) and that in turn helps reduce any associated systemic inflammation. This is perhaps the most dangerous weight you carry, and it basically presents as Edema. I have seen lots of reports from very obese dieters (like 700 pounds) who have lost 50 pounds in one month and 100 pounds in four months on keto. This is the kind of "water weight" that really needs to go to help your heart.
Yes.
Is this a cult?
Anyone got tips on how to gain weight with little appetite on carnivore diet? Maybe have to cheat for a bit?
If you cheat, eat nuts .
Does anyone know if the carnivore diet can help with psoriasis?
Loved this! I just found you 3 days ago and I think I'm ready to take the plunge!
Calories are not grossly inaccurate. People's estimates might be but if measured correctly CICO works very accurately for predicting weight gain or loss! And I mean weight.
Bart is missing the point here! Yes metabolism varies depending on what we eat and how much, and yes he ate more calories for two weeks and guess what? His metabolic rate went up so he burned more calories than he was eating so he was in a deficit and he lost weight! It's still CICO!
"If you eat more food you tend to be more active" ie. we eat more Cals we burn more Cals.. = CICO!
The point about protein not having 4Cals is not correct either! Yes some of the energy from protein is used for other purposes.. but we know this and it still has 4Cals /g!
Yes we can eat 30% more protein than fats or carbs due to this and not put on weight and we know this.. 30% of the energy from protein is used for other purposes than just providing energy and so our metabolic rate goes up 30% when we eat protein and that means CICO is still valid!
Also Bart says at the beginning about CICO being valid with a yes and a no and went on to say that if we eat at 1000Cal deficit we will lose weight.
Similarly it can be said that if we eat 1000Cals surplus we will gain weight.
1000Cals is not the magic number. The recommended 500Cals will do the same job.
Basically he said in a caloric deficit we will lose weight and in a caloric surplus we will gain weight.. Therefore CICO is still 100% valid!
And unless Bart can come up with a better measurement than Calories then CICO is also the only way to track the energy.
Oh yeah.. and guess what.. fasting is a calorie deficit! Do you put weight on whilst fasting? No..
