![Carnivore Diet Dangers? 2 Doctors Answer Questions [Dr Anthony Chaffee]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/bVj_kYUM0Sk/mqdefault.jpg)
I can't speak to this gentlemen"s story, but I have been carnivore for about a year and I was told during my regular cardiology appointment on February twentieth that my heart issues had healed.
Congratulations!
@@deliapfenninger4285Thank you, I am still having trouble believing it.
Lies
@@deliapfenninger4285 Wow....! 👍
@@stoptheviolence3358If you are referring to the original story, it was pretty obviously a lie, if you are referring to my statement, I have the facts listed in my medical records.
You must watch his video all the way
He used to be a heavy smoker until his transition.
Smoking is a factor of heart disease
Yes. People are so obsessed with diets they completely overlook the obvious like booze and cigarettes.
@@Zeus-rq5wnI do both but eat well . I know (or do I?) cig’s n alcohol will kill me ultimately despite my healthy eating. Is this the truth or fiction? I don’t know. Been smoking since 8 year old, am 60, weigh 9.5stone still at 60 and since aged 25. Gained a stone aged 55 due to chemo treatments including steroid injections but once discontinued body weight gravitated back to 9.5 stone. I eat meat with veg, average one meal a day, rarely feel the need to snack but if I do it will be one bag of crisps that lasts me 3 hours 🤣 by simply picking at them..
@@carolwaller9605 I understand that smoking is hard to stop, hopefully one day you'll manage to do that.
What I do suggest is to swap the bag of crisps for a bag of pork scratchings, which have almost no carbs and taste good. Crisps are a high fat/high carb combination (the worst) with no nutritional value. Also, the oil used is very often hydrogenated (check ingredients to see if "hydrogenated" or "partially hydrogenated" is found), which means transfat. That is a danger signal as it is well known and documented that transfat consumption encourages cardiovascular disease.
@@carolwaller96058 years old .. where were your parents it’s illegal to allow a child to smoke
You are right. These doctors work for big Pharma they get bonuses by keeping you sickly, “a healthy person is not profitable “. When you look at a doctors license plate, their ego tells you they’re taking money and bonuses from big Pharma. I’ve been eating meat only my whole life and I’ve never had a heart problem I’m in my 50s and I out run 20 year old kids and that is a fact not open for debate. I have long endurance and I’m extremely fast me in 5 foot, 7 128 pounds, I love beef, chicken fish anything that moves that’s healthy to eat because I’m smarter and greater than all animals on earth. I have a big brain and a thumb to out with all animals at my dominion to do it ever please put them in my belly and then when I wake up the next day, I have all the Mouradian energies and creatine flowing through my muscles to get another animal if I wanted to as my prey
I’m 54 I’ve had a cardiologist since I was 44. I’ve been carnivore (red meat, salt, water and black coffee) 6 of 7 days per week for 20 months. 5 months ago my cardiologist cancelled me. After numerous nights in the hospital, tests and meds for 10 years. Could not breath, couldn’t sleep, just waiting to die. I feel amazing. No more meds. No longer waiting to die. Every risk factor gone. I feel 25 again. Back in the gym. Lost 100 pounds, so far. No pain. Feel like I can conquer the world.
That’s awesome!!!!
You gave him 10 years to fix you and with all the medicine to his disposal, he still couldn’t help you.
So do you just not worry about cholesterol on this diet? Like eggs bacon breakfest, perhaps big dinner of steak and some hamburger meat
@@Stringbean there’s also good cholesterol. Take it easy on the bacon, turkey bacon is the way to go. Eat lean ground beef and meats, chicken, steaks, eggs and cheese but not processed. Take some vitamin k2+d3 (this comes in a bundle). Drink plenty of water, exercise and stay healthy and I guarantee you’re gonna feel like a king. You are gonna lose weight. But the first day is normal day 2-4 your gonna crave carbs and then your gonna be fine and actually feel fuller thru the week. Monitor your stool and bowel movements but don’t get scared if a couple days you don’t poop once the diet starts kicking in and everything before the diet leaves your digestive system. For legal reasons I have to state I am not a medical professional or claim to be one but I am stating things from public information and my person experience. Seek medical advice if you decide to.
That's good that it worked for you, that doesn't change the fact that overall it increases the risk of several types of heart disease and cancer
My dear friend, who is EXACTLY my age, has always had “perfect” cholesterol. And yet she’s had a heart attack and has three stents. I’m ketogenic and I’m fine. Huh.
That's exactly correct, it's now known, through studies, that cholesterol is not a factor and dose not increase the risk of heart disease, UNLESS it's too low. But they're still spewing the same nonsense about cholesterol because it benefits pharma.
It’s sugar and excess processed foods. Particularly processed carbs.
@@michaelbarker742 Yep, yes it is.
Insulin resistance primary factor which can be attributed to multiple factors of stress, lack of sleep, poor coping skills, lack of socialization, lack of sunlight and nature. And not to mention processed foods.
The cardiologist that said young people having heart attacks. That's been going on since the covid vaccine was rolled out!!
35-year-old having a stroke or heart attack? Did anyone ask if he had the clot shot?
Did he say he had a stroke or heart attack? Did I miss that?
I was JUST about to mention the "clot shot" and the number of young, healthy people dropping dead for no apparent reason. Pretty sure it is NOT carnivore-diet related.
I came down here to point this out exactly!
He didn't have the shot
Exactly 👍
At 60, I have recently had a ct angiogram due to family history risk. Cardiologist said my score was 10 and didn’t want to see me for 10 years. I asked about my cholesterol as it is on the high side and he responded by explaining the low score that I was given. My doctor keeps insisting that I go on statins “just in case “. Treating something that is not there. Not doing it mate 🤬
Yikes! Take a powerful medicine with well known side effects “just in case”? That should be malpractice.
@@Mrs.TJTaylor probably. Maybe one day I’ll have a heart attack and realize he was right? I’ll wait and see 😀😀
The exact same thing happened to me, however my score was 0. But due to high cholesterol he said I should take and remain on statins for the rest of my life. I took the prescription and threw it in the bin on the way out of the hospital.
@@pharkurnell9561 yep. Same here except I somewhat respectfully declined his generous offer of a lifetime of prescription medication
There's a 60-70% increase in diabetes in people who go on stations.
Dave is lovely man who is very kind and very courteous. He has a lot of patience with allowing his guests, that he interviews on his RUclips channel, the time to express their own personal experiences from being on the carnivore diet. A top man!❤😊
I've been full carnivore for 2 months and one week and have been free of my 2 blood pressure meds that I have been taking for the last year and have stable blood sugar levels . For the first time in 20 years I'm able to sleep 8 hrs a night I one shot .
Congratulations! That's awesome.
I'm on 3 blood pressure medication (73 years old). I record my BP twice a day. Lately I've noticed my BP is on the low side so I'm weaning off.I look at the side effects of my meds..dizziness, fatigue, fainting , sore joints..The cure is worse than the illness.
@@khustombuilt2854 you did not mention what kind of diet you were on. How are things going one month later?
Dave is down to earth talks sense but yes has a wicked sense of sarcastic humour. A great bloke
Big shout out for Dave Mac - you are the best ❤️
The best advice of all is to stay away from doctors 💊 and to completely ignore their advice which is always based on big pharma corruption.
I’ve been asked by various GP’s for 30 years to go on a stain !!! Only now, finally, I’ve had the GP agree with me.
Everything we need to know is on YT subscriptions of the following Dr’s and Surgeons who promote carnivore and seeing mega results in reversal of diseases without medications.
The cholesterol lie -
You need cholesterol -
Dr Anthony Chaffee
Dr Ken Berry
Dr Shawn Baker
All of which..Reversing disease and mental illnesses and mass weight gain by carnivore
The facts are there; the data is fact, the results of millions are facts
Fierce vegan propaganda will be so forced on us more so now in the media, wait n see the scaremongering because “Good Health” doesn’t make money!
Dave Mac has a fantastic ch called "No Carb life" where he interviews a ton of people healing on carnviore. worth your time.
Dave is very good and respectful at interviewing people. I don't just look at headlines and titles.
A lot of people benefit from hearing personal stories. It gives them hope.
His not a good advocate for carnivore .
He looks like a prisoner of war escapee who had a stroke last week .
Still more healthy looking than the stereotypical puffy bloated 🍅 carnivore faces .
Honestly i can't with the clickbait titles. His work is good enough already, but the clickbait actually turns me off
Dave is doing a GREAT job of case studies of carnivore successes. At least 250 interviews of ground-up, N=1 experiences. He is just great. And he sits back and listens rather than interrupting.
Yes I enjoy Dave's nterviews and have found encouragement & inspiration.
I agree. His interviews have encouraged me to stay the course.
Change your doctor- !
@@samueljohnclark huh? Nothing wrong with my doc. Brilliant. Supports my carnivore diet. 😊
After watching 50ish Dave Mac videos interviewing people on a carnivore way of eating, I have no doubt of his honesty, sincerity, or diligence in providing personal experiences to viewers. Not only do the help keep me motivated, but expose me to others experiences of little known things that get better. ie skin problems, sleep, stress reduction, arthritic pain reduction, oral health, etc.
Dr. W, I enjoyed your review.
Yes, me too, I love hear other people's experiences. I'm a 66 year old woman and my chin hairs are much finer now. Also my hair is not as grey as it was (and my boss has noticed this too), and several other people have mentioned this too on YT comments, with one lady saying that her husband's chest hair is now darker. I've been low carb since October 2021; recently I've been tending more towards carnivore. I've also got to my ideal weight without trying. I live a sedentary lifestyle and do light hand weights and pilates (stretching and strengthening) because I have back and knee issues. The decrease of weight by 27.5% (80kgs down to 58kgs) plus the reduction of inflammation, is making a lot of difference to how I feel. I also have arthritis so I'm hoping to at least slow the progression of this, especially the narrowing of my spinal column but it would also be nice if my fingers don't get any worse. I took a photo of my hands on a checked pattern the other day so I can notice any differences.
No matter what diet any young person is on, if they have a heart attack, my first question would be, were they vaxxed?
Watching Black and White sports one week had a young athlete die on the field 5 days in a row. Never mentioned on the MSM.
Go to the channel of Dr John Campbell for information on that one. He's regularly reviewing tons of literature and also having a look into excess death statistics. He lately also reports on white blood clots discovered in people since 2021. I found it rather alarming.
There's the question!
BOOM.
My sentiments exactly
Absolutely! First question I would ask.
I love him and follow him. He does great videos and is HILARIOUS! If you go to his channel and listen to how sick he was before he started carnivore and how he can walk now! You will be amazed.
Who is he? I’d like to watch his videos. Thanks!
@@DeeCee1984 Dave Mac no carb life on YT
I won't let my Dr do bloodwork on me, but last year I asked her if she would refer me for a CAC score test. She asked me if I would take a statin if she felt I needed it and I said no, so she said no to the referral. I do yearly labs through my naturopath and follow his recommendations so see no need for her advise which has always been contrary to my beliefs. Only reason I have a Dr is in case of some catastrophic event. It is obvious that she is controlled by the insurance company and Pharma.
I’ve run into this problem, it’s as if the physician suspects you want to take your heath into your own hands using medical diagnostics as a guide.
Learn the magic of the words maybe and probably
You shouldn't need a referral to get a CAC. The cost is also reasonable, probably under $200. Medicare paid for mine and no referral was required.
The good news is you don't need a referral. I had one done and the cost was 75.00
Say "yes" and then don't take them. What are they gonna do, shove the pills down?
My Dr. Mentioned once for me to take a statin. I told her no my numbers are great and I will monitor them. She put it in my chart that I am allergic to statins! Love her!
In Australia my doctor frowns upon statins andvis very wary of ppi's.
Mine did this about mammagrams! LOL
We all are, it has dementia as a sign of anaphylaxis
Same here..only keep Dr for emergency..
😂😂😂😂
The for s”s. Sugar, stress,smoking. The system. They are four killer causes of inflammation
Seed oils
@@dawnelder9046 oh yes. I almost forgot that one 👍🏼
Also the sneaky snakes with their round up ready gmo.
Four is spelt F O U R.
One more: smog or pollution. Pollution and smoking are closely related.
It's so funny. In 1989 I read Dr. Todd's book "Nutrition, Health & Disease". So for 45 years I have avoided PUFAS, but have embraced cholesterol and saturated fat. Yet here I am at 62yo with BP of 95/55, a 29" waist, resting pulse of 55bpm, and every 4 days I climb the height of Everest. Surely all that cholesterol and saturated fat should have killed me by now? I've never even had my cholesterol levels tested, because it's meaningless.
Yeah I doubt you climb the height everest even once a year. And u said getting your cholesterol checked is useless. I guess every western medical journal and scientist have been wrong for the last 50 years. You've figured it out!!!!!!!!
QUOTE:
❤WHY IS CHOLESTEROL LEVELS TEST MEANINGLESS?
For this guy, it's meaningless. For me it's important. I just changed my diet to mostly meat and a few vegetables. In 8 weeks my labs are normal and I feel better overall. Lost 16lbs. I'm convinced.
@@chdk55christidonny6 because your cells need cholesterol and most of it is produced by your body. Most of what passes for medical science is junk.
@@chdk55christidonny6 here you go, a 3 hour lecture by a medical doctor who used to believe this junk science about cholesterol, but finally! late in life started to question the fraud around cholesterol ruclips.net/video/jyzkv5uFGt8/видео.html
I had a stroke 6 months ago, it was scary shit. The western diet almost killed me at the age of 50. I eat clean now. Meat and veg, not really keto and not carnivore more like ketovour. I had a dietician helping up until two weeks ago and she said "Tell them you eat clean" don't mention low carb, or any of that. (she released me due to my health improvements) My doctor heard keto and went nuts. Now that I changed my wording she says "Damn, your blood work is insane. What ever you're doing, keep it up. I've lost 60 lbs and I got a bit more to go. I'm off of metformin and I stopped taking my Atorvastatin. I told her at my last appointment that I stopped. She said "we'll keep an eye on your levels" (I stopped a week after she prescribed it 6 months ago) I'm still having issues with hypertension but I'm being tested for secondary causes now. I walk 5 miles without being winded, I stopped smoking. I feel better 6 months after my stroke than I did ten years ago. I walk further and breath better without all the fat on me. I won't ever go back to that WOE. I want to live. For people like this doctor to say that this way of eating is bad, bad compared to what! Jesus I was almost dead 6 months ago. I'm finally living again. Thanks to you and other great people advocating this lifestyle.
maybe you should tell your doctor that your blood test don't lie about result and should check into it ...or change doctor ,put a complain
Hello! How are you feeling this minute I trust your day is going well? I wanna say a big thank you for taking time to support and appreciate my career once again thank you. Hope you don’t mind where are you from?
eastern food has diabetes too. but probably less, because we prefer skinny…
That is inspiring...some of theses Docs geezzzz good for you taking control of your own life. I had a heart attack two weeks ago and two stents dealing with some of the same attitudes.!

Love Dr. Westman, always a calm, intelligent examination and reaction to the claims. I've Been Keto-carnivore since May 2023 after watching Dr. Westman. Have lost almost 40 pound, feel fantastic, and have stopped Blood Pressure and Cholesterol meds on my doctor's order.
This Dr Westman is a lovely balanced man. 😊
Dave is one of my favorite carnivore RUclipsrs! I saw his original video when he first published it. I'm looking forward to his results a year from now.
Likewise
He's a favorite of mine. I watch his videos almost daily.
He and Bella the steak and butter gal are two of my favourites. I get so much great information from their channels. Also, listen to Dr. Ken Berry, Dr. Shawn Baker, Dr. Anthony Chaffee and Dr. Paul Saladino. If I missed someone, I’m sorry and should know about please let me know. Friends and family think I should follow my doctors advice, because western medicine is the best there is, but all these doctors do is fill up my medicine cabinets with drugs. 🤷♂️
I appreciate Dr. Westman's calm demeanor and logical analysis of the videos he reviews. He bases his opinions on good scientific studies and his clinical observations. I feel like this is a person I can trust for honesty and integrity.
Hello Laurie! How are you feeling today I bet you’re one of beloved fan, hope you’re having a great day. Hope you don’t mind to always support and pray along side for us okay. Have a blessed day. Where are you from?
Yes an actual good doc. Rare.
No Carb Life is a great channel that I've been following for a few weeks. He does excellent interviews and always lets his guest talk without interrupting them. I've learned a lot from his channel.
So true all of this. I have had very high LDL for over 35 years, it just doesn't come down no matter what I do in terms of diet and exercise. Exercise I might add seems to be, for me at least, only beneficial when it comes to blood pressure. It definitely reduces high blood pressure with people that have that. The push for Statins is unbelievable, and I have repeatedly said no to them for a very long time, only to be told I will have a stroke or heart attack. The last doctor I saw which was only a week ago said, ...
" You have just gotten lucky ". He went on to say I was playing "Russian Roulette" with my health and then added the fact that I'm still here doesn't eliminate the enormous risks associated with high LDL.
I can totally identify with everything being said in this video.
Does anybody fully understand the chemistry and mysteries associated with the working of the human body ? With all the contradictory information that's around, I would say no.
Some people have healed their bodies with whole food plant-based diets, while others who have tried it over periods of many months and even 12 months and beyond, have had no benefit from it at all. They have continued to suffer with inflammatory disorders and illnesses of varying kinds.
Others have gone on to thrive on the whole food plant-based narrative. The same thing happens with the Keto and strictly carnivore diets. Some have cured their health issues, some have not. It proved even more detrimental for them. Who the hec knows why that is so.
Honestly,
I can only tell you what I have done I have stayed away, to the best of my ability, from highly refined processed foods. Cakes, biscuits, cookies, many highly processed cereals, anything in supermarket freezers marketed as ready to eat meals, soft drinks or sodas as called in the U.S. All the trans fats, the so-called vegetable oils, and hydrogenated and polyunsaturated oils. I only use OLIVE OIL. I eat meat butter, cheese, eggs, and fruits and vegetables, fresh. I'm just reminded of what is said in the scriptures ..."We are fearfully and wonderfully made "
It's really a case of all things in moderation. Fresh air and sunshine, just go for a half hour walk 4 or 5 times a week, not difficult or time consuming or taxing in any way. I don't think you have to be pupping iron in gyms, and give yourself a fasting day every now and then.
In concluding, just want to briefly address the issue of water consumption. WE are told by doctors today to drink lots and lots of water. At least Eight glasses a day, that's about 2 litres, and I know many people who go even beyond that. There was a time when people only drank water if they were thirsty. The beverages were tea coffee or a little fruit juice, they lived to ripe old ages. Apparently today those drinks are not regarded as being at all hydrating by medics. Its today's society however that is riddled with illnesses at younger and younger ages. Hec man, the food we eat contains water, what's with the gallons they want people to drink these days? Even water in excess can become toxic or dangerous to our health.
Thats about it from me everyone and I'm sorry this is a little lengthy. I'm 75 years old now and feeling fine. Do the best you know how and leave everything else to the Lord, be blessed folks.
Thank you so much for this video.
I wholeheartedly agree with the comments on here. Dave is a wonderful patient man who interviewed myself with the utmost respect. Such a great experience
As Dave Mac's first carnivore interview, and someone who has called my diet the "Heart Attack Diet" since the late 1980's, and soon to be 56, why have I not had that heart attack yet? Dr Alo looks like some kind of social media creation. By the way if you like Dave you need to see Belle Shine!
I don't do carnivore currently and have tried it before and my health was great. I love people who do carnivore, normally, they are the smartest. And it's not a cult as soon as you're mature enough to understand what's really going on in the body.
I adhere currently to the common sense diet. Fruits when available in nature, nuts, and meat. Here and there i will have a pizza because I'm not in a cult, and I'm not dying either. If i developed a condition I'd eat carnivore until the condition cleared, like i do. But I'm not a slave to my diet.
Even with a CTA score of 0 at the age of 65 because of my high cholesterol and my father dying at 54 of a heart attack the cardiologist recommended low dose statin to which I said no. I've since got to my early 1980s weight before children and am metabolically healthy. My LDL has increased, trigs gone down and HDL gone up with a good ratio. That CTA was 1 year after going low carb and remitting my diabetes. I'm glad that I had it done so I have a benchmark. Funny thing was that 6 months later my LDL had gone from 250 to 300 and I thought the GP was going to have kittens with her telling me that you know I want you on a statin and that you are at a high risk of heart disease. Recently after losing the last 4 kgs which got me to my ideal weight I've had to come off my blood pressure drug because I was feeling fatigued; I had reduced it twice before not long after going low carb and had been on a very tiny dose.
It’s great that all the people I have watched on RUclips regarding heart disease and Type 2 Diabetes have been brought together by you Dr Westman. I am most encouraged to keep on with my Carnivore diet. I find it stunning that for years I was told that what I was wanting to eat the wrong things, only to discover that they were exactly the things I should have been eating. Wow!
Every doctor I’ve seen (my regular fam doctor basically forced me to go to a cardiologist, who wanted me go on statins, STAT) I tried a new provider, who quickly told me if I didn’t get my chol down , that I was going to have a heart attack. What a bunch of bozos.
51yo, 3 years on 95% carnivore, CAC at zero,
Do you know your cholesterol and lp(a) levels btw?
I really liked this video! It reminds me of the fact that statins did not stop my husband from having 2 heart attacks. I am about to be kicked out of another clinic as I refuse to take statins.
My husband gets the prescription. 80 percent covered. Live in Canada, with a doctor shortage. We have several full bottles in the upper cupboard. He feels so much better not taking it.
Don’t tell them you won’t take statins, if you do, something rises up in them and boy to they get upset, the cardiologist I went to about sprung a leak any time I questioned him.
Well done Dave, we love you
Dave is top notch. Glad to see this.
Wooow that's fascinating. I didn't know carnivores in the wild don't get atherosclerosis.
To be fair...this arrogant alcoholic guy "dave" has only been carnivore for a while...not thay long...so the tests may not mean much.
HAVING SAID THAT...I Am not against meat....I think natural meats ARE healthy....I just don't think humans are carnivores.....and I don't get my advice from arrogant uneducated zealots like Dave.
hahaha. liked.
Humans aren't wild carnivores....and I don't think anyone can make that statement about animals.....how.many wilde animals are getting tested for atherosclerosis?
Fools.
Bwah haha
DaveMac is an excellent presenter of his channel, I enjoy watching all of his videos, that Dr Alo should watch some of them and swallow some humble pie. Glad you picked up on his humour and sarcasm so quickly, he can be very funny at time, as well as being a great listener for his guests. Looking forward to hearing his follow up results next year.😊
Me too!

There are cardiologists that think LDL is not important.
Where?

I work in pharma. Years ago I worked with simvastatin. There is a famous ph3 study merk did. 4S study. This convinced drs to prescribe 40mg of simvastatin to all pts with raised LDL. There was also a study done by Pfizer that looked at arteriosclerotic plaques in the carotid artery in the neck (probably because it's easy to scan). Anyway, it showed that 80mg of Atorvastatin reduced plaques. This was used to market and establish 80mg Atorvastatin as the standard of care in pta who have had a MI or stroke. It may benefit these particular patients, I'm not denying that. But why not stop ppl from getting the plaques in the first place through lifestyle and diet?
Btw 40mg of simvastatin, most common prescribed drug in UK for raised LDL has still not shown MI or stroke prevention.
Giving a pill and letting ppl continue to be obese and insulin resistant I believe is gross negligence of the part of Drs. As I say, I work in pharma. I have no intention of taking their life long pills so I look after my health with diet, excercise and lifestyle.
Smug idiocy blaming doctors because "people" refuse to change their diet and prefer a magic pill. JUST HOW do you propose they force people to so that? Moron.
Carnivore 8 months.. yes, cholesterol did go up a bit. But my heart scan came back clear.. no heart disease at all. I don’t drink alcohol nor do I smoke cigarettes..
Yes, domestic cats today seem to get cancer much more maybe due to a lesser carnivore diet.
Cats and dogs are carnivores by nature. The packed food is made from grains, veggies and little meat, mostly chicken. I give mine small pieces of meat, eggs and bone broth. My dog is 14 years old chi and still very active.
Haven't seen Dave Mac like this before but to me he's a real hero.......I watch his testimonial videos daily and they are fantastic
At 52, i had a suspected heart attack at 49, ended up having double heart valve swap, it was a congenital defect, was stuck on statins, 3 month later ended up with. Type 2 diabetes, 2 years on i am 25lb lighter, reversed my diabetes to normal levels and came off gliclazide and statins, feel way better on mostly carnivore, my diets still not perfect as still cheat until i find my perfect meals i like and can stomach but its a game changer, my arthritus pain and i.b.s is also significantly improved, 6 pills a day instead of 21, i will keep at it, not going back on those previous meds again, even my brain fog and dizziness went within 2 days of quitting statins.
Dave Mac, the layman, is more cogent than the doctor, Dr Alo...
Ive always heard high LDL == Long Life 😊
Not really...he's just more of an arrogant zealot. Dunning Kruger.
@ghost9-9ghost I agree, Dr Alo is the one afflicted by the Dunning-Kruger effect...
alo is the epitome of dunning kruger the guy looks like a 75 year old grandma@@ghost9-9ghost
People on the ketogenic diet are not the ones dying of heart disease 🤷♂️
Great to see you review this review by Dave Mac, Eric. Dave has embarked most recently on gathering/featuring as many personal stories of life on a carnivore diet, and the amazing changes a tremendous variety of individuals have experienced. He's a great interviewer, pretty much opens the mic to his guests and there have been some amazing stories. I think he's up to around 250 interviews at this point. Context is all. Anecdotal evidence is still evidence. ❤
Hello! How are you feeling this minute I trust your day is going well? I wanna say a big thank you for taking time to support and appreciate my career once again thank you. Hope you don’t mind where are you from?
Dr. Alo looks like a troll
I love Dave. His interviews are great.
I'm on carnivore 18 months and have received many health benefits with a high LDL 163, HDL 78 trigs 70. My first ever baseline CAC calcium score was 1,200. Had not been a member of Dr. Ken Berry's community, I would never have been prepared to defend myself against two bullying cardiologists that used fear tactics to try to get me to comply with their wanted invasive procedures. First wanted me to do a nuclear stress test and I said I wanted the less invasive CAC. I got it. I fired the first cardiologist was booked with the second cardiologist to review the CAC, echocardiogram, heart monitor. #2 wants said the high calcium means I have blocks and wanted to put me under and do an invasive cardiac catherization before first knowing if there was anything to fix. I told him I want to know what needs to be fixed before its fixed and he became visibly upset. I am going to get another CAC by an independent Radiology company because I do not trust the company that owns the scanner and employs the cardiologists. If the 2nd CAC is high I will get a CTA with contrast and go from there. One think is for certain, I will never let those two cardiologists touch me and 2) I found a well-known "keto-friendly non-invasive" cardiologist near me and will see him the end of April. The man you featured in the video is Dave. He is one of the few influencer carnivores who did not need to lose weight when he started carnivore. He has that dry sense of humor and a great interviewer. www.youtube.com/@zerocarb Thank you for a great video and I've subscribed and liked too!
Let us know a year from now how you are doing
I love Dave's choice of using sarcasm to make a point. I do watch many of his videos frequently and he has an amazing testimony of what carnivore has done for his health.
I love Dave he is one of the people that made feel like I could turn my life around with carnivore....... I did just that!!!!
seems to me that 100 years ago when we ate mostly meat with plants considered to be sides, we didn't have all these diet based diseases like heart disease and diabetes to the levels we have today.
I just had my first stress test. My cac is 1248 with my one left side of the heart at 745. The reason I had the test. I have been carnivore for three years. My weight is under 170lbs, a1c 4.7, trigly under 50, ldl 138, hdl 83. lifting for the past year. 56 years old, no drinking, no nicotine. My test came back normal
My first CAC was 187, a doctor I hope to never see again tried to use that to scare and bully me into taking statins. I still said no.
@KismetWLS I had to order my own test. At 52 before carnivore, mine was 909.
Read the Calcium Paradox to fully understand. But this is the basics.
It is about K2-4 and k2-7. The traffic cop vitamin that we all did not get enough of for decades because of the lipid hypothesis and the semi vegan food pyramid.
We use K2-4 right away, so it only lasts 4 hours. Cheese, eggs, fatty meats.
We convert k2-7, so it lasts about 24 hours. Fermented vegetables. I take the natto capsules.
K2 works with vitamin D, which you can not make without cholesterol. And retinal A, which about 20 percent of people can not convert at all from beta carotene, and only 20 percent can fully convert. So they need things like meat, eggs and cheese.
K2 is the vitamin that sends Calcium to your bones and teeth and away from soft tissue. And if you go on sites talking about it, in the comments you will read about a lot of people who used it to lower their Calcium score.
Were I live in Canada not a hope I will ever have a Calcium score. But I did have bone density at age 51 while still on the death diet and again 5 years latter. Two years after eating a human diet.
Besides having 1 1/2 of 2 inches I had lost over time, my bone density had increased. And that was just from the food. Started the natto capsules at 58.
At 62 I was carrying something down my ramp and hit black ice.
Suddenly staring at the sky on the ground beside the ramp.
Double checked before getting up and getting back to work. Latter before bed I checked for brusies. Nothing.
As an old white woman I should have had broken bones.
@@dawnelder9046 My father was a frog eh! I have been d3k2-7 for three years. I have cleared one artery of soft plaque last year. this year I am trying mega doses of both.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Dawn Elder Emm, 62 isn't old. I'm nearly 69 and I'm far from being old. Should I head into my 90's then I'll think I'm old. 😉🙄👍🏴
I had a CT angiogram in NOV23.
I have a congenital heart condition and the cardiologist wanted to put me on a statin when he saw my LDL that is now very high and my BMI reduced to 21 from 35, because I started a proper human diet in 2020. Makes me a LMHR (Lean Mass Hyper responder)
Results came back as ZERO. (I am a 44 year old )
It makes me SO happy to see Dave Mac/No Carb Life in a Dr. Westman reaction video! I saw a few folks that came over to his channel from here and subscribed. His interview content, by sheer volume, is becoming so valuable to the chronically ill community at large. And I love his sarcasm! Great video!
I saw Daves pic and the title and went HUH had to see this ;) hahahahaha
great vid of course
Carnivore 4+ yrs keto a year before that lost over 100 lbs that I had gained in my 40s and now in my 60s I am back to my lean 20s and 30s body weight AND feel as great no joint pains no recovery issues working out etc.
TRY IT then you will now how it works FOR YOU :)
Losing weight is unhealthy; eat your bugs and corn flakes 😂
@@sunnyromano6862 my brain thought
bug flakes sounds YUMMY
good thing they will have a vaccine for that :) I feel safe now
hahahahah made me smile
@@sunnyromano6862yeees Klaaauus.😂
I love your videos, so calm, scientific in the good sense, and inquiring.
While eating the SAD diet and on Lipitor since it came out on the market I had CABGX5 (quintuple bypass surgery.) I'm now 68 and had been on Lipitor 40mg . My LDL was low, but I was pre-diabetic. At age 60 I had an angiogram. 2 of the 5 grafts were 100% blocked. 1 was 70% the other 2 were 40-50%. After starting keto 3 years ago, and losing 55 lbs. I quit taking Lipitor though my PCP keeps prescribing it and thinks I'm taking it. Based on my last lipid profile, total cholesterol 220, my PCP wanted to increase my Lipitor to 80 mg.
Great strategy. I'm glad you're improving. I always agree with my doc and throw the prescription away.
Look up the Korean Cholesterol Mortality Study published in 2019. Over 12 million subjects. No money from Adventist cult food industry or big pharma.
People between 200 and 240 live the longest. Over 240 nothing impressive even at 300 and 400.
Under 200 the death rate for everything increases hard and fast. That includes suicide and violence.
You are sitting at 219. Mine is just barely over 200. Before going low carb/keto my cholesterol was so low my doctor was worried. And my triglycerides were too high.
So happy, but I would love 219. You are sitting in the golden spot.
Thank you for giving more info and being open minded to other possibilities as well as being forthright about knowledge in your profession 👍🙋♀️
Why is it that when people get start a carnivore/keto diet they lose significant weight 99/100. But yet we are hyper focused on the high LDL and cholesterol, but everything else is baseline. I feel keto/carnivore have proven something very important and there needs to be major research 1,2,5,10,15 year studies.
"LDL denier," oh MY! That accusation sure is going to make me do as I'm told! LOL! Please someone, give Dr. Alo a lozenge. Dave is an amazing guy. Alo is con man.
Another really good video thank you Eric.
This man is thriving wonderfully on carnivore go follow him!
I have three senior cats. They're 18, 16, 15. I took the 18 year old for an exam and told the vet to be careful because when you try to draw blood be prepared for a very hard fight. He smiled and gave me a doubtful look because after all I'm a older weak female. The look of shock and sweat pouring from this 30 something vet was priceless. He was actually panting 😂 let's just say my big boy made him a believer. I feed all three a raw carnivore diet 😂
Lol that's funny! Ppl just don't listen 😻
Really.. You're comparing a cat to the human body.. wow
Dave Mac is a great guy. I have done a few videos with him.
Great info. Thanks
But the majority of folks who are admitted to hospital with heart attacks, don't have elevated LDL ???
I love Dave Mac, he's awesome. So funny!
Hello! How are you feeling this minute I trust your day is going well? I wanna say a big thank you for taking time to support and appreciate my career once again thank you. Hope you don’t mind where are you from?
i will be subscribing to Dave’s channel
Me too.
Brilliant video doc, thank you!
2 years ago. 7 medications, prediabetid, 254lbs, coronay heart condition, . Adpoted a Low carb diet with fasting. Now 204lbs, 2 medications, no more heart pain. signed off by the cardiology department. HDL up, TGL down. HbA1c Down LDL up.
Dave is a hoot in this video😂😂
Dr Eric westman is great in details
Hello ❤
Thank you for sharong about alcohol and smoking, finally, a helpful, VERY helpful tool to give these up, it os so freeing.
Loved it thanks Doc!❤️💯
Dr Alo is a flake, in my opinion. He insists LDL is causative for CVD, and that there is no question about that! I got a CAC score almost 2 years ago, my first at 61 years old, and it was a score of 70. I had been doing low carb/keto/carnivore for several years by then, but all my life before that was standard American diet growing up, and during my 25+ years in the sport of bicycle racing from my late teens to my mid 40s it was carbs, carbs, carbs as the go to fuel source for that. So no telling when that damage was done. I do plan on getting another scan done sometime this year to compare it to that baseline and see if there is any change.
Stay off the veggie oils and nuts and oxylate heavy greens. Beef, eggs and butter and meat fat.
@@forester057Yup, beef, eggs & butter is mainly what I eat now. I haven't used veg oil, other than olive oil, in many years, and I don't even use that any more. Also haven't eaten any leafy greens since I had a kidney stone about 5 or so years ago while doing keto, and then first found out about oxalates.
I’ve been keto for years. Animal fat is a minimum in my diet. Main source is cold pressed olive oil, nuts and seeds. Periodic fasting and falling in love with large amounts of all things low carb and green. Avoiding eating anything coloured beige and keeping fruit seasonal. I’ll die of something one day, but I’d rather die after or during a walk rather than slumped in a chair unable to carry my own calorie controlled weight.
You need more animal fat in the diet not less. Bile is used to digest fats in the body. If you don't eat enough fats the bile builds up in the gallbladder and causes a sludge and eventually gallstones. Many vegans have to have their gallbladders removed because they don't eat any animal fats.
Wow, first time listening to a doc that you do not want to pat on the head as you leave his office. I have not had many health issues but the ones I have had, I have had to solve on my own through research, trial and error. Kudos to you!
Wow - how many commercials did I NOT PAY ATTENTION to?!
Gee, I wonder what Dr. Alo uses on his hair to get that "Mary" look.😂
😂😂😂😂
Same stuff I imagine
Love Dave Mac ❤
Much respect to you Dr Westman for being open minded. A rare thing these days…
Dave Mac is a really good man with a delightful sense of humor. He's committed to helping every day people share their personal stories on his channel and does a really good job in those interviews, making his guests feel comfortable.
Hard to take a doc seriously when he's getting his hairstyle from Johnny Neutron.
Thank you Dr Westman.
My cholesterol is 314, ldl is 218, HDL is 80, triglycerides are 53, glucose is 80. I don’t smoke or drink. Active throughout the day. Kidney function is great, actually better than before. I am not overweight. Have had my actual blood tested by a hematologist… everything was great. Yet it has been suggested I should start medication and have been referred for cardiology appointment. I’m 39, female.
Dave Mac have a lot of interesting interviews on his channel.im a follower of both your and Daves channel. 🌹
I’m whole food plant based and it has changed my life. Everyone’s family history is different. Heart disease, stroke, high bp, strokes. All meat and cheese lovers! SO, Dr John McDougall had a stroke at a very young age! He went whole food plant based and no more problems. He wrote The Starch Solution. There are people who can get away with eating carnivore, keto and there are people who can’t. Dr Caldwell Esselstyn Jr wrote, How to Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease. He’s also whole food plant based . I think family history is SO IMPORTANT!
nobody is "getting away" with eating carnivore. Humans have evolved on it for millions of yrs.
Dr John McDougall is senile.
Dave's program on youtube is so good. He just interviews people, very respectfully, who have discovered carnivore. Some great stories!
Drs. Westman, Baker and Bikman are the only people you need to listen to. You’re welcome.
I had a CAC scan and my score was 129. I guess I am an example of the walking dead. would carnivore help me reduce my score? Of course being 83, my time is limited.
Ive watched so many of these videos and on every single one i see sooo many people saying their CAC improved after going carnivore which isn’t supposed to happen. Some go from 100s to zero. Some from 1000 to to 100s. If you have limited time then hell with why not.
Are we allowed to ask those Twitter People who had a heart attack or stroke their vax status?
In the documentary "The Widow Maker" they put a man with a high CDC score on statins and it slowed the progression (APPARENTLY). I'm still waiting to see that done on someone put on keto.
Bravo for the disclosures in his health history.
this interview is awesome! I’ve been saying what the cardiologist said: if all markers are good except LDL, then LDL can’t be too bad. I totally agree! After I’ve been on statin for over 30 years, I developed statin resistance. My body hurts like an old rotten lady. After I quit statin for over a year, and started keto, all my blood work show great markers except my thyroid and LDL which went to deep space. However, I felt so much better. No more joint pains, no more liver area pains. However, my doctor made me start statin 10mg. Six months by now my trigger fingers come back! Now I am working on to get rid of statin for good. Also my thyroid could also be destroyed by statin as well. And statin also double my triglycerides! Statin is evil to my knowledge and my own experience. Thank you for the interview.
Mine went down from 205 to 199 😊 and blood sugar was 6.1 went to 5.7 😮😮
🎉
Hello! How are you feeling this minute I trust your day is going well? I wanna say a big thank you for taking time to support and appreciate my career once again thank you. Hope you don’t mind where are you from?
whoa whoa whoa! I only allow anecdotes that support my point of view!
Excellent video!! Dave Mac’s zero carb channel is so good with interviews every day with people who have been successful and are healthier from carnivore!!!🎉❤
Great honest info Dr. Eric!! On that note can you please do a video on dietitian on Abbey Sharp?
Dave Mac is the man! ❤
Absolutely! Not related to his diet.
