My wife is a dyed in the wool WFPB eater. I'm worried about her health. She thinks I'm nuts for eating only meat. I'm hoping to accidentally expose her to some of your wisdom and healing someday. I wish more carnivore women would post videos debunking McDougalls', and Gregers' baloney. Shine on ladies.
I bought into WFPB for years. Ultimately it wasn’t satiating and I was always so fatigued and would binge on ice cream or chocolate because all of my healthy home cookers plant based meals weren’t giving me the nourishment I needed. Energy is the biggest thing I love about eating meat.
@nledelnr I am in the opposite position of you. Our family did plantbased in 2015 and lost a ton of weight and felt super healthy for about 4 years. Then we went back to the standard American diet and gained 2/3 of it back. now 54, I haven't been able to lose weight for almost two years and I went carnivore in April of this year. My husband is still hell bent on plantbased and how it's the healthiest diet on the planet. And I can't get him to even "look" at the info on carnivore. He told me yesterday he is concerned for my health from eating all this cancer causing meat and fat. He says..don't you remember the China Study..it was all about meat and dairy. Meanwhile he is in and out of plantbased and can't really stick to it. He is about 125lbs overweight. I feel great, not tired and way more energetic then I've felt in the last year! I haven't lost any weight but I'm trying not to be concerned with that and let my body heal although I have days where I get frustrated with that aspect. I do feel it's harder to convince or even have people consider something out of the box when they can't see physical results! Anyway...I hope you can convince your wife, it's wonderful to feel satisfied with our food!
What a beautiful doctor 👩⚕️🥩 Awesome interview!! I had parents that fed us higher fat so we were lucky. I didn’t hit menopause until 57 and not one symptom. Not one hot flash, sleep great and I am losing weight. My thyroid, adrenals, Leptin are balanced. I’m meat (fat) based.😋
How do you eat and for how long were you eating that way before menopause? I am beginning the Carnivore WOE because of horrible perimenopausal symptoms. I am 57 and still not post menopausal quite yet.
I lost my period at 47 after about a year eating a ketogenic diet and then higher protein ketovore. I knew it had to be a macro and fast weight loss (stress) issue based on your videos and other female carnivores. It took some months of playing around with my protein and fat. After 5 months, I got my period back when I lowered protein to 100 grams and upped fat to 70+% . Also, I eat as many calories as my body wants and my weight stays stable. I only care about macro percentages (high fat/moderate protein).
I'm glad to hear you referring to 100 grams as "moderate" protein. I'm an age 50 woman, 130 pounds. The US federal government guidelines would like me to eat 46 grams of protein per day. I aim for 100 grams. The guidelines would consider 100 grams to be "high" protein but it isn't particularly high. It's adequate / moderate.
This all makes so much sense. I did carnivore for about a year and ended up demonizing it because I had gained fat, my breath was bad and I had no energy and constipation. Looking back I barely ate fat, I was only eating meat on its own, which is fairly lean here. I now eat 1 stick of butter a day which I top my meals with and loooooads of different animal foods, not just meat. ANd oh man, THIS was what I needed.
Not adding enough fat and eating too much protein causes rabbit starvation (protein toxicity) Also on very low carb diets you need to add a ton of Salt and potassium along with water which will alleviate constipation. Carnivore should be done using ketogenic principles. That is 65 to 80% of your daily calories should come from fat.
As a fellow endocrinologist and ancestral supporter This was a fantastic collaboration! Love it and sharing w our team @ health and wellness 🔥 Thanks so much ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Judy .. you nailed it!! Great interview. I am 66 and was on levothyroxine for 20 years. I have been carnivore for past 5 months and weaned off Levothroxine. I have increase my fat intake to 80/20.
Thank you for just doing all these interviews with a diverse base of professionals, specifically focusing on women’s health! I really really appreciate it!
A few years ago I tried some carbs before bed because I felt desperate to get a good night´s sleep. I tried raw honey, and that did not work (I gave the honey away), then I tried some oatmeal, fruit, etc. Nothing worked. I was actually ticked off at all the people who suggested I try some carbs for sleep. Fat does work, though and I´m so grateful to those who recommend high fat. #CarbAddictionIsReal
I thought I am eating quite high fat(but I don't really measure tbh),but since watching this video I started to add extra salted butter with my meals and I felt really sleepy afterwards. Hope this means I am healing 💗
Such great questions and answers! Thank you for interviewing Elizabeth Bright, this lady makes absolute sense of Carnivore diet, she is a real Carnivore whisperer, Carnivore princess! she just made me understand what Carnivore is all about. I am so grateful you brought her for us, Judy. She is so plain spoken and knows her staff.
So happy to hear you all addressing waking in the night. I am peri menopausal and have been keto over 6 1/2 years and carnivore for 4 months - no weight loss on carnivore , but I am going to keep pushing the fat and maybe even have a fatty snack at bedtime to see if I can sleep the whole night through. 1-3 am is when I tend to awaken and can't go back to sleep often for a couple of hours. I had lost and maintained a 60+ loss on keto until peri- menopause
What a wealth of knowledge! What a breath of fresh air, love this doctor 🤓 And Judy is such a perfect discussion partner! Gotta check out this book for sure.
As a menopausal woman on hrt and fasting, I have to say that these things have saved my life. It would be interesting to see what was the rate of osteoporosis and alzheimers in women 100 years ago before the processed foods and low fat teachings. I was low carb, very low grain for years before menopause and I was positive i was rapidly developing dementia. I was healthy going into menopause and it still was killing me. Hrt is a life saver. Fasting is also a lifesaver. Despite being low carb, my glucose was rising and I started gaining weight during early menopause. Maybe it was cortisol from menopause but fasting also causes cortisol rise and yet I feel fantastic now. The only thing about fasting is that it might expose mineral deficiencies. If u make sure u take iron and minerals and eat well on earing days, you won't have issues with hair loss. Losing weight causes temp hair loss anyway. It's nuanced. We all need to figure it out for ourselves.
I’m on HRT too now, I did it because my life was hell, I was fat free all my years, so much of brain fog, sweats,hot flashes, I couldn’t take anymore I do have one problem I still drink coffe, I hope my body will recover soon
I’m also on HRT! Went into menopause in 2022 and my life was so intense! Hey has helped ALOT . And I find water fasting for anywhere from 36-80 hours occasionally really really healing… that being said, eating a high fat carnivore diet works best for me!! I’m starting to up my fat starting tomorrow! I’m open to ditching the HRT if the high fat works to balance me out😊
😊Judy, thank you for addressing menopause & Dr. Bright, thank you for your outlook on it‼️ I have been dealing with these changes and always felt embarrassed about it. I have a completely different outlook now.❤️
I had this issue and def had my macros off for hormonal wellness. I was getting around 200g of protein, and 200-230 grams of fat per day on a carnivore diet. Just meat, eggs, & salt. Some ppl blame the eggs for “vitamin a toxicity” but whenever I included fruit specifically fruit high in vitamin c things improved almost instantaneously. I went from tired, lethargic, anxious, and depressed to full of energy, laughing, social, w proper neurotransmitter functioning. I’m in the camp for now that cycling in and out of ketosis as a stressor may be optimal. Giving our bodies a sign of abundance is what it all comes down to so maybe I just didn’t get enough fat w my training. Although, since I do workout intensely I’m willing to bet I just need more vitamin c, carb assistance, and/or higher fat than the average person for endocrine system to operate properly. But, with men sbhg seems to be a huge issue and free t tanks while in full on ketosis constantly so I’m thinking around 100 grams of fruits + mostly meat is the way for me for now. May try ketovore later but not convinced it’s optimal and that it’s all just gluconeogenesis to blame w my old macros. I think I legit had a vitamin c deficiency. But, could just be false pattern recognition. Could of been reintroduction of carbs themselves or them assisting w my electrolyte balancing. Who knows. We’ll see in future experimentation. But, for now I’m just glad to back amongst the living. Morning wood has returned and that’s natures strongest indicator of the right path for me.
Wouldn't that high amount of protein just convert to glucose if you eat beyond your body's ability to make use of the protein? Excess dietary protein is stored as sugar. That would certainly contribute to negative symptoms associated with high sugar intake.
You both talk so well together it makes it very easy to understand and it flows lovely. I really have enjoyed so many of your videos and feel so lucky to have found them. Thank you!
This was the favorite and most professional of the videos I’ve seen so far with Dr. Bright. Great questions Judy..I feel like you represented what people wanted to know very well!
Awesome. One thing I noticed when going vegan was that I couldn't tolerate stress and cold. When I eat keto/low carb I can tolerate these things much better.
First went Paleo 9 years ago, Keto 5 years ago and then Carnivore 3 years ago, but I went into Menopause 2 years ago and 4 surgeries, stress, etc. and have gained 30 back of the 100 lbs. I've lost. I just couldn't seem to make it work for me, but I don't want to give up. Binge watching Dr. Bright's videos for past 3 days and find this information super helpful. I am lactose intolerant and don't have a gallbladder. I can tolerant a small amount of dairy, but went off it for 3 weeks, started to add it back in and have been super sick. :( I went to store last night and bought beef fat and making ghee as well. I find fried beef fat sweet and satisfying, so great snack. I can't wait to see how this new way of eating goes. I 100% don't think I was eating enough animal fat.
Yes, I could not ever do one meal a day. I have scrambled chicken (4) and quail eggs (2) for breakfast with lots of duck and goose fat lunch is one piece of meat 200-300g with lots of duck and goose fat dinner is salmon (for the omega 3) or another piece of meat. 200-300g with lots of duck and goose fat sometimes I add oysters or salmon roe I supplement with the Ancestral supplements (thyroid, Kidney, Adrenal) - my thyroid bloodwork is fine - no symptoms anymore since going meat based.
Wow. Do you do Iodine? Im gonna go get my thyroid labs done again soon. Had them in January and my T3 was ok but not my TPO. Still indicative of Hashimotos.
This was a great and informative video. Watched the whole thing. I am upping my fat starting TODAY. I have been carnivore for 4 months and I have been struggling. For the next month, I will increase the fat and see how I feel. Thank you so much for this info!
42:00 there was a study done on this. It was mentioned in the Huberman lab podcast in one of the sleep episodes. I think they found that 100g of carbs 3 hours before bed increased the restfulness of sleep. He explained the cause and I can't remember. But 100g seemed super high to me as a carnivore so I was like...good for them 😂
PSMF is a protocol of lean protein for no more than 1-3 days a week with the rest being high fat. Always carnivore, no dairy, no carbs, no coffee. Very effective, in general, because it is basically food restriction withiut fasting. I tried it for 2 days eating often around 20-30gms of protein like sardines, fresh salmon for 2 days. I was very happy to return to high fat. However, I definitely leaned down very fast and that was the point. It’s a tool. I’m female, 55, 1 year menopause l, no symptoms, a momentary hot flash here or there usually indoors in hot, stuffy environments plus any kind of stress.
Judy, this information is invaluable. I'm so appreciative to you, for bringing it to us. I ordered her book. I can't wait to read it! Thank you, thank you, thank you! 😘🤗
I’ve been hypothyroid since my late 20s & diagnosed with Hashimoto’s in 2016. I’m back to Carnivore. I’m going to try & send this to my endocrinologist. I had to fight for Armour thyroid but still feel lousy. Ty so much🥩
@@tracy3812How are your symptoms now? I just skipped coffee for the first time today and replaced with hot lemon water. I have been wanting to let go of the coffee for a while now but its been tough. It is full of mycotoxins which are a big no :( I cut gluten two months ago and my allergies are almost non-existent now.
I need the both of you in my life right now. I am post menopause and gaining gaining gaining weight. Drs here where I live are not educated on carnivore. Hormone labs look good. But something is off somewhere. I’m so confused and frustrated.
This info about the smaller meals throughout the day was so helpful. I have been having so much trouble not tolerating high fat--so much acid stomach issues.
Yes. Been low fat vegetarian most of my life then vegan 3 years, thinking I was healing my gallbladder but as soon as started eating fat on keto i started having attacks. Been eating fat 3 years now( carnivore of and on about 6 months) and having attacks 3-4 times a week. I had ultrasound once and had sludge. I take bile and recently started taking chanca Piedra or stone breaker. I haven’t had an attack since for 2 months now. So so far so good. I hope it continues! I’m eating loads of fat to try to flush it out and heal all my issues from life of no fat. I hope I can! If you can talk more about gallbladder and weather you think fasting may be beneficial, that would be very encouraging. Thank you so much!
@@tair5928 wow? Ty so much. I need to order some of that Chanca. Are u still doing well? I have gall bladder and nausea issues on high fat ketovore. Hate it.
@@BriarRoseA wow two sticks really?! That’s very encouraging. Thank you so much for your reply. Very helpful for people with gold letters to keep on. Maybe I upped it too fast and didn’t allow the gallbladder to adjust by going slow.
I am off thyroid meds after 20 years. I have had people private message me that I need carbs. Lots of carbs. When I ask what carbs are they referring to, crickets. I am pain free when the only carbs I eat are greens & some vegetables. I don’t skimp on fat but will gain weight if I purposely eat extra.
I was tracking my macros for my menstrual cycle, out of curiosity. I was ok with lean protein and low calories (700cal) for a few days because I was super satiated. But when I was ovulating, my calories went up 4x. My body craved more fat. Then after 4 days, my body craved carbs, so I went from 10-15g daily to 40g. My protein was 231g. Fat was 206g. And I was super thirsty. I need to buckle down for the rest of my cycle!
Very informative, thank you! This made so much sense. Thank you for asking such a range of questions. Please have Dr. Bright back on. I've been carnivore for a month coming from 4 years on keto, and I do feel more well and energetic when I eat a LOT of animal fat, especially from beef (tallow, butter), and when I eat more frequent smaller meals. I do fast occasionally for religious reasons, and also for a few health reasons (lymphedema included), but it is not scheduled fasting per se. I will say, it is awfully nice to not need to eat if I am out and about and unable to get good carnivore food.
Yes, because paleo is veggies along with Fruits, fats, proteins. Certain veggies block absorption for thyroid. Like broccoli, cauliflower. I was eating these plants daily. Wrecked my thyroid. I was always hypo but now it’s been a month off all medication from HRT except testosterone and progesterone which are going soon too🙏 I’ve been on these since 35 for migraines I’m 45 now started eating carnivore about two months ago. Also started my iodine which has helped thyroid! I’ve had tons of issues with anxiety, depression. I feel way better on this than eating all vegetables. I do eat an apple or banana but I’m slowly working away from that too. Im 5’10 and weight for me has never been an issue. So I’m trying to stay what I have 127. I don’t want to loose anymore. I lift weights 4 times a week. Very blessed to know good fats are wonderful I’ve noticed a huge difference all around❤🙏
oh thank you for this interview. After several weeks on standard carnivore, fatigue hit me, I had issues with interrupted sleep, and my thyroid antibodies which I had finally got down to zero, zoomed back to over 1000. Still trying to find the way in my journey with Hashimoto's, but I too assumed it was the zero carb, even tho I had come from keto and IF prior. I'm on month 5, and trying my best to find my personal carnivore for healing.
@@CubitaLolaI am doing really well now. I am still meat based and prioritize protein. I also added in berries, avocado and 1 sweet potatoe or zucchini each week. I have found food freedom with my meat based diet, daily walking and a new doctor that has really helped me with my diet and supplements. I am seeing consistent results within 1 month of working with him. I still watch all things carnivore, but am finding I am finally getting results while healing Hashimoto's symptoms.
@@devonnejoy0515 Oh wow, interesting, you sound like you're eating same foods I am. I am mostly meat based now but started incorporating asparagus and berries, some greek yogurt and occasional sweet potato too.
@@CubitaLola excellent! If you are dealing with Hashimoto's and want another great perspective, I really like Dr. Brad Bodle. He's on RUclips and IG regularly.
Hi Judy! Right around 28:40 in your interview, Dr. Bright says she recommends Lugol's iodine because it "is not Potassium Iodide", however, I just looked on my bottle of J.CROW'S Lugol's Solution 2%, and the ingredients are: Potassium Iodide 4%, Iodine 2%. I am confused. Are there other Lugol's that don't have Potassium Iodide in them?
Used to run marathons - and I was a Vegetarian back then. Worst combination ever, I thought I needed to carbload and drink electrolytes (yeah those sugary drinks like gatorate) so that led to a burnout in 2007. I still have not recovered from that fully, it was the final insult trigger... - exercise intolerance (gettin TIRED from exercise, feeling exhausted and getting a migraine from it, fibromyalgia like symptoms) - Summerheat intolerance - many food intolerances Diamine Oxydase helps with those histamine related issues. But I still freeze my meat. Don't do bone broth, processed or aged meat. 4 years of Veganism fucked up my health even more, I got chronic back and hip pain, depression, brain fog, massive digestive issues...so that got reversed at least by going into carnivore...but as I said I still have issues. MCAS probably. Very clear symptoms, very stress sensitive... I am experimenting with MEGADOSE thiamine according to Dr. Derrick Lonsdale's research. Omega 3 was low and Molybdenum (which might have led to accumulation of sulfite in the body) so I am supplementing those. I might do a consultation with Elizabeth. Wow Elizabeth speaks so many languages, holy moly.
@@NutritionwithJudy oh yeah bone broth is a no no - gave me super migraines as well as dried meat (when I tried to make Pemmican) or chicken for some reason... unfortunately bacon too.
I wish Dr. Bright would have hit the subject of women who have had their thyroid removed. Do you know Judy what is the best theraputic suppliments? My mother in law is in this situation, due to cancer. Now she‘s been on hormones from her doctor, but she‘s suffering from several symptoms including hair loss and muscle loss. But otherwise she is active and very smart, she‘s 75 yrs young
Agree with the intermediate fasting and eating once per day... Been on carnivore for 8 weeks and in my 9th week it's been hard to do carnivore. I thought I need carbs etc.. I was eating fat, butter etc... I needed food and my body was begging me. I ate two times per day even snaking... Like neat snacks and I feel wonderful
What a brilliant, mind boggling information. Thank you for this absolutely amazing guest, Dr Elizabeth is absolutely mesmerising, she is so straightforward and clear. And, the questions put to her are so relevant and so interesting, real new light into darkness! Thank you very much for doing this for us. Is there any chance of making a programme about the Dry Eyes - it is a very common and misunderstood condition, it seems to me it is autoimmune condition, could it be related to thyroid or hormones - it is prevalent in women over 50. Will be good to hear your take on it, thank you!
As usual a very good podcast. Judy ,you really know how to put the best questions and how to motivate your speakers to get the most out of them. I just want to add from my own experience that I have been ketogenic follower for the past 10 years and since June I turned carnivore. after listening to Dr Ken Berry, I started to take two drops of lugol solution 2%.Ironic ,just yesterday went to the doctor for my labs and my THS is not good .T 4 ,also I don't think that it is such a thing , one feets all. Everybody should really be very careful if they will, or will not take lugol solution. For me is the first time in 10 years to have my thyroid not functioning . This is just a thought based on my experience from yesterday. Ps. I do eat 2 to 1 fat to protein . Thank you ever for all your great podcasts .
I am so grateful for this episode 😭💝 I've always had light periods but since going carnivore they are almost no existent. I know my testosterone is high and my estrogen is low based on blood tests. Thank you for talking about this!!!
Please talk about acidic vs. alkaline in our body. Are people on carnivore long term more likely to experience colon cancer based on the microbial shift to species that thrive in that type of environment?
Hallo Judy, Can you give more information over after monopause how fat balance the hormones. Is fat the material to make hormones after monopause. Thank you very much.
In 2009 i started eating LCHF. I had to learn to eat fat. It took ten days of hard work. I stopped being incontinent. After that I have no problem eating fat. It is my friend. But I have to set up my plates with butter to really eat it. Today, as a carnivore. Wow... I eat between 1 and 1.6 grams /kg of protein without thinking of it. But I still work on remembering the butter.
i desperately need to GAIN weight. i have been carnivore for 104 days and lost even more than when i started. i thought i needed carbs to gain. so, if not, how specifically can i put on weight as quickly as possible. now many calories per day? what kind of fat besides meat? i have muscle pain and no energy. any advice?
I am still so curious about the mentioning of the dowager hump in the beginning! Is it connected to all of this? Is there another cure than chin tucks and physiotherapy?
10:00 I don't understand what the numbers would be on my plate. plus when she says times 3, it means for 3 meals?. why would one gram of protein per kg of body weight gives 70% fat, what is 80-20 on a plate with a fork and knife. Or what are the numbers for a 300 grams Rib eye? Thank you for this excellent and very interesting video.
I think she means your body weight in kilograms = the amount of protein you need. And then that amount x3 is the amount of fat you need. So for me it would be 60g of protein and 180g of fat.
@@thliv5916So Im 148 lbs and I'm calculating 67g of protein for the day? And 200g of fat which is like a stick of butter I believe. I guess I'd need to pull out my food scale to calculate the protein.
Do we need vegetables, fruits and nuts? I keep hearing thet even on ketoviour that I should be having veggies. What a great video. I was dealing with chronic stress due to woro and fertility so now I'm working on healing my body. My cortisol was high and I hope it's getting better. Can I supplement Zinc? I already supplement iodine and vitamin D but I also eat steark, butter, eggs, bacon etc. I also add chicken once in a while. I try to eat salmon once a week. I have a hard time falling a sleep right now. I hope its temporary.
I would love not to be afraid of coming off my dhea. My hormones are all super low. I have been told by other hormone specialists that as we age the dangers of having very low hormones and not taking exogenous hormones is worse for us as we age than the benefits of using Bhrt and warding off disease as we age. Eating this way hasn’t helped my adrenals as yet. I hope they get better. So wondering what you think? My periods are still regular since eating this way, I’m 54 and still have eggs!
I don't want to be lean lean. It's just not healthy. Thank you for putting it that way. I was always envious of ski ny women. Always wanted a lean body. Now I can appreciate the composition of my body and appreciate it.
@@CG-mj8tk I really did enjoy it, I don’t think I stuck to it as strongly as I needed to in order to see the benefits. I also have a lot of thyroid issues, and I just wasn’t getting the results that I was hearing so much about online. I think if you wanna try carnivore, you absolutely should, but make sure you can give it 100%, and I recommend find one person on RUclips that you like and follow them only. There’s so much information out there that you will become overwhelmed, and it can be damaging.

This all makes so much sense. I did carnivore for about a year and ended up demonizing it because I had gained fat, my breath was bad and I had no energy and constipation.

Not adding enough fat and eating too much protein causes rabbit starvation (protein toxicity) Also on very low carb diets you need to add a ton of Salt and potassium along with water which will alleviate constipation. Carnivore should be done using ketogenic principles. That is 65 to 80% of your daily calories should come from fat.

I thought I am eating quite high fat(but I don't really measure tbh),but since watching this video I started to add extra salted butter with my meals and I felt really sleepy afterwards.
Hope this means I am healing 💗
Such great questions and answers! Thank you for interviewing Elizabeth Bright, this lady makes absolute sense of Carnivore diet, she is a real Carnivore whisperer, Carnivore princess! she just made me understand what Carnivore is all about. I am so grateful you brought her for us, Judy. She is so plain spoken and knows her staff.
One of the best interviews I've seen this year. I hope we hear more from Dr. Bright in the future.
So happy to hear you all addressing waking in the night. I am peri menopausal and have been keto over 6 1/2 years and carnivore for 4 months - no weight loss on carnivore , but I am going to keep pushing the fat and maybe even have a fatty snack at bedtime to see if I can sleep the whole night through. 1-3 am is when I tend to awaken and can't go back to sleep often for a couple of hours. I had lost and maintained a 60+ loss on keto until peri- menopause
Do drink coffee or tea or both?
Try a magnesium supplement 🙂
@@irishBBBEgirlMagnesium wires me. I can't sleep on it.
Just found this video & can relate to your comment about waking in middle of night for a few hrs. Have you found something thay works for you?
I have heard Dr Bright and others talk about when you wake at those times of night it has something to do with cortisol.
Please invite Dr. Bright back again!
Menopause - only “symptom” I had was the cessation of menstrual cycle - was certainly because of what I ate - or didn’t eat!!
So happy you did an interview with her. She's phenomenal. 🥰💖 Thank you both so much.
What a wealth of knowledge! What a breath of fresh air, love this doctor 🤓 And Judy is such a perfect discussion partner! Gotta check out this book for sure.
Judy that was a great interview and you asked all the right questions! Thank you!
EXCELLENT questions Judy!!!!! Thank you for having Dr. Bright to answer your pointed and relevant questions😊❤️
As a menopausal woman on hrt and fasting, I have to say that these things have saved my life. It would be interesting to see what was the rate of osteoporosis and alzheimers in women 100 years ago before the processed foods and low fat teachings. I was low carb, very low grain for years before menopause and I was positive i was rapidly developing dementia. I was healthy going into menopause and it still was killing me. Hrt is a life saver.
Fasting is also a lifesaver. Despite being low carb, my glucose was rising and I started gaining weight during early menopause. Maybe it was cortisol from menopause but fasting also causes cortisol rise and yet I feel fantastic now. The only thing about fasting is that it might expose mineral deficiencies. If u make sure u take iron and minerals and eat well on earing days, you won't have issues with hair loss. Losing weight causes temp hair loss anyway.
It's nuanced. We all need to figure it out for ourselves.
I’m on HRT too now, I did it because my life was hell, I was fat free all my years, so much of brain fog, sweats,hot flashes, I couldn’t take anymore
I do have one problem I still drink coffe, I hope my body will recover soon
I’m also on HRT! Went into menopause in 2022 and my life was so intense! Hey has helped ALOT . And I find water fasting for anywhere from 36-80 hours occasionally really really healing… that being said, eating a high fat carnivore diet works best for me!! I’m starting to up my fat starting tomorrow! I’m open to ditching the HRT if the high fat works to balance me out😊
I love this!!! So true, the low fat just hurts people.
@Sue Davis. Yes, the low fat idea is such a mess, and causes so much NEEDLESS suffering!!
OMG so excited to hear this!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
😊Judy, thank you for addressing menopause & Dr. Bright, thank you for your outlook on it‼️ I have been dealing with these changes and always felt embarrassed about it. I have a completely different outlook now.❤️
I had this issue and def had my macros off for hormonal wellness.
I was getting around 200g of protein, and 200-230 grams of fat per day on a carnivore diet. Just meat, eggs, & salt. Some ppl blame the eggs for “vitamin a toxicity” but whenever I included fruit specifically fruit high in vitamin c things improved almost instantaneously. I went from tired, lethargic, anxious, and depressed to full of energy, laughing, social, w proper neurotransmitter functioning.
I’m in the camp for now that cycling in and out of ketosis as a stressor may be optimal. Giving our bodies a sign of abundance is what it all comes down to so maybe I just didn’t get enough fat w my training. Although, since I do workout intensely I’m willing to bet I just need more vitamin c, carb assistance, and/or higher fat than the average person for endocrine system to operate properly. But, with men sbhg seems to be a huge issue and free t tanks while in full on ketosis constantly so I’m thinking around 100 grams of fruits + mostly meat is the way for me for now. May try ketovore later but not convinced it’s optimal and that it’s all just gluconeogenesis to blame w my old macros. I think I legit had a vitamin c deficiency. But, could just be false pattern recognition. Could of been reintroduction of carbs themselves or them assisting w my electrolyte balancing. Who knows. We’ll see in future experimentation. But, for now I’m just glad to back amongst the living. Morning wood has returned and that’s natures strongest indicator of the right path for me.
Wouldn't that high amount of protein just convert to glucose if you eat beyond your body's ability to make use of the protein? Excess dietary protein is stored as sugar. That would certainly contribute to negative symptoms associated with high sugar intake.
Thanks Judy and Dr Bright. I am incredibly impressed by Dr Bright's intelligence and polyglotism.
Fasting is not eating carbs 🤘. I don't do any long term fasts. You get all the benefits with a high fat diet.
You both talk so well together it makes it very easy to understand and it flows lovely. I really have enjoyed so many of your videos and feel so lucky to have found them. Thank you!
Excellent, shared with my daughter
Excellent interview! Learned so much! Thanks!
This was the favorite and most professional of the videos I’ve seen so far with Dr. Bright. Great questions Judy..I feel like you represented what people wanted to know very well!
Awesome. One thing I noticed when going vegan was that I couldn't tolerate stress and cold. When I eat keto/low carb I can tolerate these things much better.
Judy this talk was so informative! Thank you both!!
First went Paleo 9 years ago, Keto 5 years ago and then Carnivore 3 years ago, but I went into Menopause 2 years ago and 4 surgeries, stress, etc. and have gained 30 back of the 100 lbs. I've lost. I just couldn't seem to make it work for me, but I don't want to give up. Binge watching Dr. Bright's videos for past 3 days and find this information super helpful. I am lactose intolerant and don't have a gallbladder. I can tolerant a small amount of dairy, but went off it for 3 weeks, started to add it back in and have been super sick. :( I went to store last night and bought beef fat and making ghee as well. I find fried beef fat sweet and satisfying, so great snack. I can't wait to see how this new way of eating goes. I 100% don't think I was eating enough animal fat.
Yes, I could not ever do one meal a day.
I have scrambled chicken (4) and quail eggs (2) for breakfast with lots of duck and goose fat
lunch is one piece of meat 200-300g with lots of duck and goose fat
dinner is salmon (for the omega 3) or another piece of meat. 200-300g with lots of duck and goose fat sometimes I add oysters or salmon roe
I supplement with the Ancestral supplements (thyroid, Kidney, Adrenal) - my thyroid bloodwork is fine - no symptoms anymore since going meat based.
Wow! So cool!
Would u mind telling me how much ancestral thyroid and adrenal supps u take? Tt
Wow. Do you do Iodine? Im gonna go get my thyroid labs done again soon. Had them in January and my T3 was ok but not my TPO. Still indicative of Hashimotos.
Great interview! I both both books now from Judy and Elizabeth. Such knowledge and sense. Thank you both ❤
This was a great and informative video. Watched the whole thing. I am upping my fat starting TODAY. I have been carnivore for 4 months and I have been struggling. For the next month, I will increase the fat and see how I feel. Thank you so much for this info!
How do you feel now?🌺
@Kim Jilene So, how did your extra fat intake turn out?
I'm curious how it turned out!
Wonderful interview! Thank you Judy for always moving forward to keep educating and sharing information. We appreciate you
42:00 there was a study done on this. It was mentioned in the Huberman lab podcast in one of the sleep episodes. I think they found that 100g of carbs 3 hours before bed increased the restfulness of sleep. He explained the cause and I can't remember. But 100g seemed super high to me as a carnivore so I was like...good for them 😂
PSMF is a protocol of lean protein for no more than 1-3 days a week with the rest being high fat. Always carnivore, no dairy, no carbs, no coffee. Very effective, in general, because it is basically food restriction withiut fasting. I tried it for 2 days eating often around 20-30gms of protein like sardines, fresh salmon for 2 days. I was very happy to return to high fat. However, I definitely leaned down very fast and that was the point. It’s a tool.
I’m female, 55, 1 year menopause l, no symptoms, a momentary hot flash here or there usually indoors in hot, stuffy environments plus any kind of stress.
Brilliant stuff. I’ve watched this about 4-5 times already and will be watching it again I’m sure.
Judy, this information is invaluable. I'm so appreciative to you, for bringing it to us. I ordered her book. I can't wait to read it! Thank you, thank you, thank you! 😘🤗
I’ve been hypothyroid since my late 20s & diagnosed with Hashimoto’s in 2016. I’m back to Carnivore. I’m going to try & send this to my endocrinologist. I had to fight for Armour thyroid but still feel lousy. Ty so much🥩
Did carnivore help your hashis?
@@CG-mj8tk it’s still in progress but getting away from gluten has been the best thing ever!
@@tracy3812 yes same here!
@@tracy3812How are your symptoms now? I just skipped coffee for the first time today and replaced with hot lemon water. I have been wanting to let go of the coffee for a while now but its been tough. It is full of mycotoxins which are a big no :(
I cut gluten two months ago and my allergies are almost non-existent now.
@@CubitaLola My thyroid is not working at all. I just started levothytoxine. My glucose is sky high from chemo. Frustrating.
The book is excellent. Get it !
An amazing interview with enlightening information. Thank you!
I need the both of you in my life right now. I am post menopause and gaining gaining gaining weight. Drs here where I live are not educated on carnivore. Hormone labs look good. But something is off somewhere. I’m so confused and frustrated.
Another great one! Looking forward to my session with Elizabeth
This info about the smaller meals throughout the day was so helpful. I have been having so much trouble not tolerating high fat--so much acid stomach issues.
I wish I’d had this information years ago. Thank you both!
I love Dr. Bright, been reading her book. Im trying to incorporate her suggestions.
WOAH!
DrBright speaks so many languages!!
What a brain, love it.
I myself speak almost 3.
(Got her book.)
-Jill
Thank you...Dr. Bright makes a lot of sense..
This was a wonderful discussion. Thank you both!
Thank you both. Such amazing information for women on carnivore.
So awesome! Especially the info on gallbladder! Thank you so much. More gallbladder info please!!! 🤗
Yes. Been low fat vegetarian most of my life then vegan 3 years, thinking I was healing my gallbladder but as soon as started eating fat on keto i started having attacks. Been eating fat 3 years now( carnivore of and on about 6 months) and having attacks 3-4 times a week. I had ultrasound once and had sludge. I take bile and recently started taking chanca Piedra or stone breaker. I haven’t had an attack since for 2 months now. So so far so good. I hope it continues! I’m eating loads of fat to try to flush it out and heal all my issues from life of no fat. I hope I can! If you can talk more about gallbladder and weather you think fasting may be beneficial, that would be very encouraging. Thank you so much!
@@tair5928 wow? Ty so much. I need to order some of that Chanca. Are u still doing well? I have gall bladder and nausea issues on high fat ketovore. Hate it.
@@BriarRoseA wow two sticks really?! That’s very encouraging. Thank you so much for your reply. Very helpful for people with gold letters to keep on. Maybe I upped it too fast and didn’t allow the gallbladder to adjust by going slow.
@@BriarRoseA ty ever so much for the kind words and encouragement ☺️
@@BriarRoseA oh yes 💯
Esp bc both my mom and grandma had theirs removed. They grew up on white flour pork and margarine 😬
I am off thyroid meds after 20 years. I have had people private message me that I need carbs. Lots of carbs. When I ask what carbs are they referring to, crickets. I am pain free when the only carbs I eat are greens & some vegetables. I don’t skimp on fat but will gain weight if I purposely eat extra.
Do you take iodine? Also wondering if you’re keto, carnivore or Lion diet?
I was tracking my macros for my menstrual cycle, out of curiosity. I was ok with lean protein and low calories (700cal) for a few days because I was super satiated. But when I was ovulating, my calories went up 4x. My body craved more fat. Then after 4 days, my body craved carbs, so I went from 10-15g daily to 40g. My protein was 231g. Fat was 206g. And I was super thirsty. I need to buckle down for the rest of my cycle!
That said, I slept well and had a dream again. I was insomniac on low fat and low calories.
40:50 - 43:01, those few minutes gave me my Ah-Hah moment! ~ for better sleep! Thank you Judy, thank you Dr. Bright!
Very informative, thank you! This made so much sense. Thank you for asking such a range of questions. Please have Dr. Bright back on.
I've been carnivore for a month coming from 4 years on keto, and I do feel more well and energetic when I eat a LOT of animal fat, especially from beef (tallow, butter), and when I eat more frequent smaller meals. I do fast occasionally for religious reasons, and also for a few health reasons (lymphedema included), but it is not scheduled fasting per se. I will say, it is awfully nice to not need to eat if I am out and about and unable to get good carnivore food.
Yes, because paleo is veggies along with Fruits, fats, proteins. Certain veggies block absorption for thyroid. Like broccoli, cauliflower. I was eating these plants daily. Wrecked my thyroid. I was always hypo but now it’s been a month off all medication from HRT except testosterone and progesterone which are going soon too🙏 I’ve been on these since 35 for migraines I’m 45 now started eating carnivore about two months ago. Also started my iodine which has helped thyroid! I’ve had tons of issues with anxiety, depression. I feel way better on this than eating all vegetables. I do eat an apple or banana but I’m slowly working away from that too. Im 5’10 and weight for me has never been an issue. So I’m trying to stay what I have 127. I don’t want to loose anymore. I lift weights 4 times a week. Very blessed to know good fats are wonderful I’ve noticed a huge difference all around❤🙏
Amazing interview with two amazing women!!! Thank you so much.
Fantastic info! T hank you JUDY!
oh thank you for this interview. After several weeks on standard carnivore, fatigue hit me, I had issues with interrupted sleep, and my thyroid antibodies which I had finally got down to zero, zoomed back to over 1000. Still trying to find the way in my journey with Hashimoto's, but I too assumed it was the zero carb, even tho I had come from keto and IF prior. I'm on month 5, and trying my best to find my personal carnivore for healing.
How has it worked out for you?
How are you doing now? I have Hashis too grrrr
@@CubitaLolaI am doing really well now. I am still meat based and prioritize protein. I also added in berries, avocado and 1 sweet potatoe or zucchini each week. I have found food freedom with my meat based diet, daily walking and a new doctor that has really helped me with my diet and supplements. I am seeing consistent results within 1 month of working with him. I still watch all things carnivore, but am finding I am finally getting results while healing Hashimoto's symptoms.
@@devonnejoy0515 Oh wow, interesting, you sound like you're eating same foods I am. I am mostly meat based now but started incorporating asparagus and berries, some greek yogurt and occasional sweet potato too.
@@CubitaLola excellent! If you are dealing with Hashimoto's and want another great perspective, I really like Dr. Brad Bodle. He's on RUclips and IG regularly.
Great information, thank you💙
Excellent interview, excellent information. Thank you.
I ordered the book right away and can’t wait to start reading it
Thank you for the very relevant women's topics!
Great interview! Thanks for asking those questions for the viewers, those were def my questions!
Hi Judy! Right around 28:40 in your interview, Dr. Bright says she recommends Lugol's iodine because it "is not Potassium Iodide", however, I just looked on my bottle of J.CROW'S Lugol's Solution 2%, and the ingredients are: Potassium Iodide 4%, Iodine 2%. I am confused. Are there other Lugol's that don't have Potassium Iodide in them?
@@NutritionwithJudy Awesome, thanks for asking!
I thought she meant it wasn't JUST potassium iodide? Since it contains both kinds.... Maybe I'm wrong?
Yes and 2 drops means 2 single drops or full vile x2?
@@shirleymiller5056 2 single drops
Yes, I think she 2 drops off the 5 percent solution. The solution has two types of iodine, not just potassium iodine.
Used to run marathons - and I was a Vegetarian back then. Worst combination ever, I thought I needed to carbload and drink electrolytes (yeah those sugary drinks like gatorate) so that led to a burnout in 2007.
I still have not recovered from that fully, it was the final insult trigger...
- exercise intolerance (gettin TIRED from exercise, feeling exhausted and getting a migraine from it, fibromyalgia like symptoms)
- Summerheat intolerance
- many food intolerances
Diamine Oxydase helps with those histamine related issues.
But I still freeze my meat. Don't do bone broth, processed or aged meat.
4 years of Veganism fucked up my health even more, I got chronic back and hip pain, depression, brain fog, massive digestive issues...so that got reversed at least by going into carnivore...but as I said I still have issues.
MCAS probably. Very clear symptoms, very stress sensitive...
I am experimenting with MEGADOSE thiamine according to Dr. Derrick Lonsdale's research.
Omega 3 was low and Molybdenum (which might have led to accumulation of sulfite in the body)
so I am supplementing those.
I might do a consultation with Elizabeth.
Wow Elizabeth speaks so many languages, holy moly.
@@NutritionwithJudy oh yeah bone broth is a no no - gave me super migraines as well as dried meat (when I tried to make Pemmican) or chicken for some reason... unfortunately bacon too.
I wish Dr. Bright would have hit the subject of women who have had their thyroid removed. Do you know Judy what is the best theraputic suppliments? My mother in law is in this situation, due to cancer. Now she‘s been on hormones from her doctor, but she‘s suffering from several symptoms including hair loss and muscle loss. But otherwise she is active and very smart, she‘s 75 yrs young
I also would like this addressed as I do not have a thyroid due to cancer.
Wish the Dr could have spoken more, thank you
Thank you this is a great conversation.
Great interview! Tons of information.
Agree with the intermediate fasting and eating once per day... Been on carnivore for 8 weeks and in my 9th week it's been hard to do carnivore. I thought I need carbs etc.. I was eating fat, butter etc...
I needed food and my body was begging me. I ate two times per day even snaking... Like neat snacks and I feel wonderful
I can’t wait till Dr. Brite talks about adolescence . My granddaughters are maturing at 10 now . Why is this ?
What type of fat should we consume?
Great interview!! Very helpful information!!
What a brilliant, mind boggling information. Thank you for this absolutely amazing guest, Dr Elizabeth is absolutely mesmerising, she is so straightforward and clear. And, the questions put to her are so relevant and so interesting, real new light into darkness! Thank you very much for doing this for us. Is there any chance of making a programme about the Dry Eyes - it is a very common and misunderstood condition, it seems to me it is autoimmune condition, could it be related to thyroid or hormones - it is prevalent in women over 50. Will be good to hear your take on it, thank you!
@E P I am 65. I was diagnosed with Dry Eyes at age 64. Had no idea it is considered an autoimmune condition!
@ep1837 Omega 3's works well for my dry eyes! I use Standard Process Tuna Omega-3 oil and rotate with Nordic Naturals both are excellent
As usual a very good podcast. Judy ,you really know how to put the best questions and how to motivate your speakers to get the most out of them. I just want to add from my own experience that I have been ketogenic follower for the past 10 years and since June I turned carnivore.
after listening to Dr Ken Berry, I started to take two drops of lugol solution 2%.Ironic ,just yesterday went to the doctor for my labs and my THS is not good .T 4 ,also
I don't think that it is such a thing , one feets all. Everybody should really be very careful if they will, or will not take lugol solution.
For me is the first time in 10 years to have my thyroid not functioning .
This is just a thought based on my experience from yesterday.
Ps. I do eat 2 to 1 fat to protein .
Thank you ever for all your great podcasts .
How long did u take Lugol's iodine before u had thyroid checked? How is it now?
It's amazing to see so many foreigners these days with American accents.
Is Dr Bright not American?
Aside from butter and ribeyes can you suggest how to get more fat? Thanks
Fatty pork, duck, chicken with skin, fatty fish, etc...
I am so grateful for this episode 😭💝 I've always had light periods but since going carnivore they are almost no existent. I know my testosterone is high and my estrogen is low based on blood tests. Thank you for talking about this!!!
Thank you for this treasure trove of info!!
Fantastic interview 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you for this information it is really useful as someone new to carnivore ❤
Please talk about acidic vs. alkaline in our body. Are people on carnivore long term more likely to experience colon cancer based on the microbial shift to species that thrive in that type of environment?
Hallo Judy, Can you give more information over after monopause how fat balance the hormones. Is fat the material to make hormones after monopause. Thank you very much.
In 2009 i started eating LCHF. I had to learn to eat fat. It took ten days of hard work. I stopped being incontinent. After that I have no problem eating fat. It is my friend. But I have to set up my plates with butter to really eat it.
Today, as a carnivore. Wow...
I eat between 1 and 1.6 grams /kg of protein without thinking of it. But I still work on remembering the butter.
i desperately need to GAIN weight. i have been carnivore for 104 days and lost even more than when i started. i thought i needed carbs to gain. so, if not, how specifically can i put on weight as quickly as possible. now many calories per day? what kind of fat besides meat? i have muscle pain and no energy. any advice?
I am still so curious about the mentioning of the dowager hump in the beginning! Is it connected to all of this? Is there another cure than chin tucks and physiotherapy?
I am too! I have been trying to get rid of my dowagers hump for years!!!!
Please research Vit D3 and K2 deficiency as a possible issue with your problem. There are good talks on RUclips.
10:00 I don't understand what the numbers would be on my plate. plus when she says times 3, it means for 3 meals?. why would one gram of protein per kg of body weight gives 70% fat, what is 80-20 on a plate with a fork and knife. Or what are the numbers for a 300 grams Rib eye? Thank you for this excellent and very interesting video.
I think she means your body weight in kilograms = the amount of protein you need. And then that amount x3 is the amount of fat you need. So for me it would be 60g of protein and 180g of fat.
Net protein.
@@thliv5916So Im 148 lbs and I'm calculating 67g of protein for the day? And 200g of fat which is like a stick of butter I believe.
I guess I'd need to pull out my food scale to calculate the protein.
Do we need vegetables, fruits and nuts? I keep hearing thet even on ketoviour that I should be having veggies. What a great video. I was dealing with chronic stress due to woro and fertility so now I'm working on healing my body. My cortisol was high and I hope it's getting better. Can I supplement Zinc? I already supplement iodine and vitamin D but I also eat steark, butter, eggs, bacon etc. I also add chicken once in a while. I try to eat salmon once a week. I have a hard time falling a sleep right now. I hope its temporary.
I take sea kelp is that a good source if Iodine.
It’s high in mercury. Lugol’s is what DrBright recommends.
I would love not to be afraid of coming off my dhea. My hormones are all super low. I have been told by other hormone specialists that as we age the dangers of having very low hormones and not taking exogenous hormones is worse for us as we age than the benefits of using Bhrt and warding off disease as we age. Eating this way hasn’t helped my adrenals as yet. I hope they get better. So wondering what you think?
My periods are still regular since eating this way, I’m 54 and still have eggs!
Thank you. Such a great talk, very informative.
I don't want to be lean lean. It's just not healthy. Thank you for putting it that way. I was always envious of ski ny women. Always wanted a lean body. Now I can appreciate the composition of my body and appreciate it.
Excellent interview
I would love her as my doctor....
And now she is 💜
How are u doing on this journey? Are u still seeing her as ur Dr?
@@CG-mj8tk no I got off of carnivore awhile ago .
@@PurpleGirl0603 was it not helping you ? I'm new to all of this.
@@CG-mj8tk I really did enjoy it, I don’t think I stuck to it as strongly as I needed to in order to see the benefits. I also have a lot of thyroid issues, and I just wasn’t getting the results that I was hearing so much about online. I think if you wanna try carnivore, you absolutely should, but make sure you can give it 100%, and I recommend find one person on RUclips that you like and follow them only. There’s so much information out there that you will become overwhelmed, and it can be damaging.
I have not come across anyone that can talk about hrt if the women have no uterus or ovaries. Can carnivore high fat help with hormones?
Great interview!
