It was such a pleasure speaking to you Judy. This was by far one of the best conversations I’ve had on the topic of meat-based diets and thanks for the brilliant intro to my content, well said 🙏🥩🏋️♂️
Regarding abstinence: 35 years ago I used to say it would be so much easier if I could stop eating like I stopped smoking. My problem was always overeating. I followed a low fat diet like I was told to do. As soon as sugar and wheat would enter my mouth, I had no control. Carnivore diet is the easiest and least expensive that I have ever been on. Been at it for over a month. Keto before that but was struggling. I now fast 22 hours a day and sometimes go for two days. Other than a bit of milk and cheese, I'm zero carbs. I made a spreadsheet to calculate my fat calorie intake so that I can keep it between 70 and 80%. My protein is calculated so that I don't exceed and transform it into glucose to store away. I make beef tallow and lard to increase my fat intake when needed. I eat about 1800 to 2300 calories a day. Trying to lose weight for my 60th birthday in June. From 200lbs to 170lbs...hopefully. I wish I could share my spreadsheet on here. It makes it so much easier.
Healing and our relationship with food is a lifelong journey. I'm glad you are trying different levers to find what is healing you. Continue the journey as that is what matters most 💗
Hi - I struggle with over eating and control around food too; for as long as I can remember. Can I ask how you found the transition phase? Carb withdrawal is hideous and hits me hard. But I can't seem to do a little bit of this and that without falling off the wagon.
@@katiem400 My latest struggle has been spices. I love them but I now feel tired and bloated when I eat them. So going with salt only now. I live alone so it's much easier. When I visit my kids, I end up cheating. I come back home and it's back to suffering to get back on track. Much easier at home because I don't keep any carbs in the house. I never eat carbs for more than one meal at a time. if I did, I'd easily go out and buy some. Just saying there is no magic cure for this, just constant effort and proper prep.
You nailed it as always. I'm not a moderator either. I'm an eliminator. I thought I was the only one. I hate it when I hear all in moderation. It never made sense to me.
Great Video, lovely to find a fellow south african carnivore. When I was vegan I was also bingeing, always hungry and convinced vegan snacks were healthy. I didnt know I was depressed until carnivore lifted it. Carnivore has changed so many things for me.
I'm on my 8th day now starting carnivore. I was totally addicted to carbs and sugar. I tried that tapering off, didn't work at all. So, I just quit carbs entirely for 2 days, and I've put back in just a little. That is working, then after a couple weeks I'll try quitting that small bit. I think this is working great and I'm not craving or eating any sugar. I'm a almost 68 year old female.
I was consuming liver for a long time and reacted with joint pain. In retrospect maybe even psychological stress. Thanks to your talk with Dr Cywes I abandoned liver. I feel much better. Thank you speaking out. I do credit you with this insight.
Same here! My jointpain, that had never occurred before eating carnivore with a lot of liver, went away completely! So thankful to have found out about this.
For me ...honey triggered my migraines again...as well as fruit and some fruit even triggers hives ...also after a while I no longer craved liver and now I dont eat it unless I crave it and I havent craved it so dont...same goes with oysters ...I used to crave em ...but no longer...I used to gag with chicken for a while and so I avoided it now I can eat ...so im definitely listening to my body thx for great video
I so appreciate that this video exists! Because this is far more representative of my experience than most videos about carnivore/keto that I’ve seen! Most videos seem to be about weight loss and/or diabetes, and I realize those are important issues. But they don’t reflect my experience. And the talk of weight loss is, for someone with a history of eating disorders like me, triggering. But my overall health and energy have improved tremendously since coming to this way of eating! And the depression I’ve fought all my life is so improved now! I just wish I’d known about carnivore / keto years ago! It would have saved me years of pain - both physical and emotional.
Glad you discussed about GOUT and the causes of it. A lot of my friends were thinking that having too much red meat, chicken, seafood will cause GOUT, but I keep on telling them that it's mostly from Liver and organ meats. I didn't know about the fructose and alcohol contributing to GOUT either. That was a great wake up call. Thanks for the great content and information. Please keep sharing!
@@philmehrart Our brains run best on fat ketones. They don't run well on carbs. See Doctor Anthony Chaffee or Professor Stephen Phinny for more info on why.
This is very encouraging I've been on this diet for 2 weeks, and I already feel so much better energy wise and I'm trying to cure my sibo so I'm really looking forward to the months of had. The what I've noticed so far is my energy and the two weeks and I lost 4 lbs.
Judy is so thorough and caring. Experience and knowledge combined provide best recommendations. Personally I do find comfort in snacking if the situation calls for it and I snack on whatever smiles at me in the fridge given that everything is carnivore anyway.
JUDY!!I LOVE YOU!! Your last 6 minutes spoke so deeply to me! THANK YOU!! I was doing amazing and then I started jumping on the popularity band wagon of psmf. And now 4 months later I'm 15+ pounds up, sleeping badly and wondering why I feel crap. I cannot do low fat protein! O.K. I'm back to square one of what I was doing (Carnivore 90%) when I lost 50 pounds last Summer and felt amazing. And when I can afford it I am going to do a consult with you. I'm not complaining about the cost because there are A LOT of others (popular nutrition influencers) who charge waaaay more than you. I think you are reasonably priced, and a good value. Its just I'm on a fixed income! I also cannot wait every Saturday for your newsletters. I do not have a mental illness, (I have pcos and metabolic syndrome) but mental illness is prevalent in our family genes- 2 daughters bi-polar, mother-in-law schizophrenia (now deceased) son with mental illness and also a granddaughter, all worsened by the pandemic issues. I truly appreciate greatly all you share. It encourages us and I don't feel so alone. God Bless your precious heart for helping. ((((HUG)))) from a Great Gran in MN
Judy.....your book Canivore Cure is a masterpiece. Literally amazed by the amount of effort and thoroughness you put into it, any person eating any type of way needs your book it is a gem! Thank you for your hard work and contribution!
I have been Keto for 3 years. Have listened to multiple videos and learned a lot. I am still learning and fine tuning my keto lifestyle. Your channel is one of the most balanced. Everyone must figure out what is best for them. Don’t blindly follow any one person but glean wisdom from different sources and find out what works for you.
Abstainer vs moderator. Hi Judy, that was such an insightful chapter. My daily diet consists of grass fed red meat, eggs, a tin or sardines and a small amount of sauerkraut and kimchi every day. That is seen by many people as extreme. But for me I love the physical and mental health benefits and the simplicity of the food shopping and cooking. Everything in moderation doesn’t work for me when it comes to my health and well-being. I don’t smoke a cigarette or two in moderation. Love your channel and I thank you for the work you do to spread the word and improves people’s health. As a side note, you look absolutely stunning and vibrant. Lovely body, healthy glowing skin. I contrast that with the vegan advocates like Neil Barnard and Michael Gregor who look frail with a greyish skin tone. A healthy plant has glossy healthy looking leaves. A healthy human looks like you. 👍
Judy - thank you so much for your message. I've been carnivore for most of the last 3 years and have recently tried adding back plant foods. I tolerate them better than I used to, which surprisingly, has now revealed to me that I have a significant eating disorder. Even lettuce can be a no-brakes food for me that eventually leads to eating all the other things until I make myself nauseous. I have always struggled with overeating but have never experienced the binge behavior until adding plants back to my diet. Seems like the negative gut symptoms of the past (before carnivore) kept me in line enough to prevent binging, but now that my gut has healed and I don't have so much gut pain (bloating, etc) from overeating, I realize that food addiction has probably been the root cause of my lifelong struggle with health. It is finally clear to me that I cannot do moderation, so I really appreciate your discussion about how moderators and abstainers are wired. Your story (and all your online content) has been immensely helpful to me - thank you for all you do!
Great interview. I've shared and will continue to share my story and yours. I so appreciate the information you share which is very understandable and relatable. Thank you 💗💗💗
Honey is also high in salicylic acid. I stopped honey because I found I was sensitive to SA (I quit coffee for that reason too). However I've never had problems with gout. We all have aspects of foods that we're sensitive to (or not) which is why it's great to talk about these various aspects.
@@jonthompson1068 I began to suspect it was contributing to me being stressed out too easily. I've been off coffee now for 6 weeks and I'm still early on in my recovery from it. Coffee raises stress hormones and fools the body into believing it's not in a stress state.
Thank you so much for your openness and honesty. I have found an excellent coach, and I also enjoy listening to your wisdom. It is 7 days for me following a strict carnivor elimination diet. I am starting to feel more energy every day. Thank you for your videos!
Hi Judy, thanks for your video! I am day 3 of carnivore diet, a few weeks on keto and still was bingeing. After years of anorexia and lots and lots of treatment I had night eating syndrome- waking up in the middle of the night and bingeing crazy amounts of food. I’m grateful to have found this way of eating and a therapist who is helping me alongside it x
Such a good point! Those on social media platforms touting the glories of fruit and honey and organs aren't actually seeing patients to get passed the n=1. Through you and Laura I have learned that it's also necessary for me to abstain or I fiercely backtrack in my health. Through your book I've learned so much. Thank you for sharing!
Excellent video. I believe in at least bringing awareness to a situation. Everyone just needs to try to be aware of their own body’s reactions to things. 👍🏼❤️ Edit: Boy, did she hit the nail on the head with me when she said we get influenced by the many “experts” out there. I get flooded and then I have to just stop. Stop watching so many videos because I’m trying to catch ever tidbit on carnivore. 😳
An amazing & inspirational podcast. Your health journey is fascinating. Well done for fighting hard for your best health & winning. Many thanks Judy. I only watch you & Garrett Smith for nutritional content now to avoid information overload. Roll on your next podcast.🙂👍x
Thank you for this. So necessary for me. I was listening to too many people. I’ll listen to my body from now on and you as well of course. Such interesting content.
Excellent discussion! You both touch on so many small details that are so helpful. Judy, I really appreciate your acknowledgement that you've changed your mind on things and that it is acceptable to do so. So many people resist changing their minds when presented with new info, and I appreciate you doing that. :)
Thank you for giving us very useful information about liver and risks of too much vitamin A. I'm glad I can just focus on the foods that I actually want to eat and not cook up gross liver or buy expensive supplements.
Judyyy ❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you so much! I love it how open you are 💕 i regonize so much in you! I was also vegan and now a beginnercarnivoor 🥳 thank you sooo much!
Thank you for this video. You're right regarding people we follow... We all are different so we need to listen to our bodies and make sure that we found what works for us. Amazing talk you two!
Judy, what do you think of chickenheart? I saw there is a lot of calcium in it, what i like because of my osteopenia…but its also an organ 😅love from Holland 🌷☔️🌞
I went cold turkey, a three day bone broth fast followed by, meat only. I have successfully treated a long covid, leaky gut that had taken over my life. It was Dr Mercola's suggestion to treat long covid with a carnivore diet & I was miserable enough to give it my all. Food is now fuel, tasty fuel, but still fuel. I can eat a big steak & not feel stuffed if I don't eat plants with it. I like feeling satiated instead of stuffed. Basically, we should do the opposite of what the FDA recommends. Seriously, how idiotic is the food pyramid & how much chronic illness has it caused? I hope this statement gives courage to other people who are suffering. Lean on my words. You can heal yourself.
I’ve got histamine intolerance and can only handle 5 foods for 2 years. Every month at my cycle I end up binging sugar and carbs because I’ve got pmdd depression is extreme and cravings every month this has given me bulimia because the food I binge on gives me bad reactions and I keep feeding sifo Candida and sibo. I tried the Candida diet all these others. I do the same as you at night. I pray I can get this under control with carnivore. Do you have groups or recommendations for types of people to help me with it? Psych meds made it worse gave me akathisia and damage my cns.
Walmart's ground beef in the packaging that makes it look like they packaged it in house is tainted with those weird preservatives like he was describing.
Great stuff, Judy. This was super helpful. On the same vein of sole water and trace minerals, are you a fan of droplets like KetoChow Daily Minerals? Not a plug- I’m curious how something like that jives with your points on trying to avoid playing mad scientist with minerals…
Yes. That’s what I meant with try the mixes of minerals first bc they research balances. Sole first. Then ketochow. Then consider Evening magnesium topical spray and daytime potassium. If none work, time for the HTMA test
Thank you for providing a wealth of information. You also bolstered my same experience with doctors. They are wrong about everything about 50% of the time.
There are very few honest doctors out there !! There are so many that are on the pharmaceutical companies payroll !! They don’t want you dead but they certainly don’t want you cured !! They sure as hell don’t care about your ultimate health !! To these parasites you are just a cash cow !! If you want to be truly healthy you need to take responsibility for your own health !!
Sadly, I think it's even higher than that. Look up the rates of iatrogenic (caused by medicine or doctors) illness, injury, and death. It's astronomical, at least in the US. Johns Hopkins university has done studies on this and found that, for each of the years since they've begun tracking it, iatrogenic death has been the fifth, fourth, or third leading cause of death in the US.
Hi Judy, I loved hearing your story (recent subscriber). Question, I have a scratchy throat and congestion on carnivore (about 2 months on now) that clears when I eat carbs (appeasing the wife, eating her cooking occasionally). You ever run into that? I sing to the kids every night and this is very noticeable as I struggle to hit the high notes when "in" carnivore.
Pim Janssen was having migraines on strict carnivore and has found it necessary to add a few carbs into her diet. This has helped with her migraines. She has a RUclips channel.
Does anyone else get really tired from adding minerals?? I can have Celtic salt fine. But mineral water or adding trace minerals bring me a dizzy exhaustion. So I take a magnesium/calcium supp that works fine. But wondering why certain minerals make me feel like scary tired. Almost like I over dosed on muscle relaxers. Maybe it’s too much zinc??
Thanks for the information. I m starting week three. Week one was fabulous week two started flu. Week three vertigo flu. I had to add a little carb to get through the day. What’s am I doing wrong?
Probably nothing, it can take some people a little while to adjust to a diet change especially if you go cold turkey, so to speak. Add a little for a week or two then try eliminating them. Listen to your body.
I’m confused about eggs on carnivore all meat no carb way of eating. Eggs have some carbs and they are not meat. Is it ok to eat eggs? And how many eggs can I consume in a day? Thank you.
I took the Carnivore Cure to heal my depression about a year ago. Unlike psychotropic medications with possible side effects such as dizziness, nausea, constipation, spontaneous combustion, temporary blindness, suicidal thought, walking around in brightly colored work-out clothing with a clipboard in your hand and high-fiving everyone you see for no discernible reason (at least that's what you see in a lot of prescription drug TV commercials) the only side effects I experience from the Carnivore KETO lifestyle is an occasional case of the Meat Sweats. I'm proud to say that for breakfast I had four strips of bacon, a couple of breakfast sausage patties, four eggs (2 over easy and 2 poached), a small skirt steak (medium rare), a protein shake, some avocado on toast and and just a soupcon of scrapple - all washed down with a nice bubbly ice cold Diet Cola. . At lunchtime, I got a can of corned beef hash from the pantry which went right into the frying pan with some chopped onions and ketchup for seasoning, and a fried egg on top. Some Beef and Barley Soup went right well with that. For dinner, it's gonna be 10 oz. of 93/7 steak tartare with an egg on top, , some thinly sliced potatoes and heirloom tomatoes pan roasted in extra virgin olive oil.. Yeah, I'm cheating a bit with "taters and maters" - but you gotta have at least SOME carbs everyday and if you don't eat any vegetables you run the risk of scurvy. I'm also proud to say that when I weighed myself right after lunchtime, I discovered that I'm halfway to my goal of shedding another 10 lbs. and my BMI is a healthy 18.2. . Wish me luck everybody!! - and have a nice protein packed weekend!. If the weather's nice where you are, fire up that charcoal or get that propane burning l and get some protein on that grill!!
You don’t need carbs to prevent scurvy, if you’re eating fresh meat your body will make all the vitamin c it needs, just like it will make all the glucose it needs.
Ms. Judy! Could you please do a segment covering Testosterone production and Carbohydrate consumption? I feel like I get extremely contradictory info from different sides of this issue. Is a low carb diet better for testosterone production than a ketogenic diet? Do I really need 40% of my daily intake as carbs to have strong testosterone production as many musclebuilding sources claim?? Thank you
Help! I eat meat only and no high purine foods, no liver or sardines, no fruit and eating just meat triggers uric acid and gout that won’t go away. I’m at healthy weight and not overweight. If I start eating carbs and sugar for a week and gain weight, my gout goes away. Does anyone have any ideas what I can do stay healthy and keep gout down?
I've had 3 knuckles on my hand that swell on/off. Started 7 weeks after going carnivore. I was low carb prior & I think I have oxalate dumping. Still dealing with it & now carnivore 2 1/2 years. My doctor thought it was pseudo gout. It's really the only negative side effect I have had. So many positive things going carnivore.
There are several things you can do: eat just enough carbs (broccoli, etc) to keep the gout at bay, while keeping away from the processed carbs, of course; eat the carb food after you eat protein, so the insulin response isn’t as high; fast for longer periods. Don’t know if you already include fasting. If you do, fast longer 3 times a week, with minimum of 18 hours, and maybe add in a 2-3 36-42 hour fast a week.
Judy! I am on week 2 and I have a weird symptom....it's on and off pain in back of the throat. Like a sore throat but not. Any of your clients experience this? ✨🙏
Have you ever studied the concepts of intuitive eating? I have and now i have a hard time thinking carnivore isn't also an eating disorder. I usually have a lot of meat and butter and sweet potatoes and potatoes eggs. But sometimes inwant an Amys brand tofo breakfast burrito made from rice flour. Sometimes I can be a moderator but sometimes I cant. So then i need to be an abstainer.
Why is it that carnivores, even the carnivore doctors say that we get all the vitamins and minerals we need from meat, yet you're saying that we may need some of them as supplements?
Is there something I should know about my body after having completed my round of Accutane? I had Accutane for 6 months. November 2020-May 2021. I’ve been carnivore for 6 weeks now, though I don’t consume any liver.
Yeah, I'm 70 and have gout flares. I eat mostly meat and some brown or white rice. No organ meat. No fruits, nuts, seeds, veggies & honey. I just started going carnivore at the beginning of March.
I been on keto like 4 months and keto one month bad constipation and no vegetables like a month feel better but still mood swings and it’s been months. Don’t know what I’m doing wrong
My understanding is that water soluble vitamins are very hard to over dose on because your body will excrete excess vitamins out with your urine. It's the fat soluble vitamins you have to be careful with because your body will store excess of these vitamins in your fat. Vitamin A, E, D and K I know are fat soluble. Most if not all B vitamins are water soluble.
Vitamin B6 and B12 can get stored. But you’re right about most water soluble vitamins. There is a tolerable upper limit post I have, I’d take a look at that for nuance ♥️
it's not necessarily the meat that heals rather it's the elimination of sugar and toxic plants plus the welcome end to binge eating and seeking comfort in food. If someone is depressed it's likely because of their circumstances...
It was such a pleasure speaking to you Judy. This was by far one of the best conversations I’ve had on the topic of meat-based diets and thanks for the brilliant intro to my content, well said 🙏🥩🏋️♂️

I can’t listen right now but I’m going to forward it to someone and bookmark it for me to watch later. Loved the book and am starting my transition.
Honey is also high in salicylic acid. I stopped honey because I found I was sensitive to SA (I quit coffee for that reason too). However I've never had problems with gout. We all have aspects of foods that we're sensitive to (or not) which is why it's great to talk about these various aspects.
@@jonthompson1068 I began to suspect it was contributing to me being stressed out too easily. I've been off coffee now for 6 weeks and I'm still early on in my recovery from it. Coffee raises stress hormones and fools the body into believing it's not in a stress state.
SA contributes to gout!?!
@@Dan0rioN No, it's another compound that some people can be sensitive to.
@@exploringrvdude7817 Just wondering what made you bring up gout I haven't had the time to watch the full video =/
Thank you Judy for your words of wisdom and advice. Great conversation!
So glad you enjoyed it. 💗
Thank you so much for your openness and honesty. I have found an excellent coach, and I also enjoy listening to your wisdom. It is 7 days for me following a strict carnivor elimination diet. I am starting to feel more energy every day. Thank you for your videos!
Hi Judy, thanks for your video! I am day 3 of carnivore diet, a few weeks on keto and still was bingeing. After years of anorexia and lots and lots of treatment I had night eating syndrome- waking up in the middle of the night and bingeing crazy amounts of food. I’m grateful to have found this way of eating and a therapist who is helping me alongside it x
Such a good point! Those on social media platforms touting the glories of fruit and honey and organs aren't actually seeing patients to get passed the n=1. Through you and Laura I have learned that it's also necessary for me to abstain or I fiercely backtrack in my health. Through your book I've learned so much. Thank you for sharing!
Yes, find your healing and your own journey. ❤ Keep fighting, each day, each meal.
Grateful for your sense of duty.
Thank you. Serving the community has provided me greater purpose too. ❤
Excellent video. I believe in at least bringing awareness to a situation. Everyone just needs to try to be aware of their own body’s reactions to things. 👍🏼❤️
Edit: Boy, did she hit the nail on the head with me when she said we get influenced by the many “experts” out there. I get flooded and then I have to just stop. Stop watching so many videos because I’m trying to catch ever tidbit on carnivore. 😳
Judy, This was so good! You are a a wonderful blessing.
Thank you 💗💗
When I choose to follow someone it is because I trust them to be honest. You fit into that category. Thank you.
I recently watched your video with Dr Kiltz. So much gratitude for you sharing your journey with us.
An amazing & inspirational podcast. Your health journey is fascinating. Well done for fighting hard for your best health & winning. Many thanks Judy. I only watch you & Garrett Smith for nutritional content now to avoid information overload. Roll on your next podcast.🙂👍x
Thank you Judy. Really appreciate you and your information.
Thank you💗
Thank you for this. So necessary for me. I was listening to too many people. I’ll listen to my body from now on and you as well of course. Such interesting content.
Excellent discussion! You both touch on so many small details that are so helpful. Judy, I really appreciate your acknowledgement that you've changed your mind on things and that it is acceptable to do so. So many people resist changing their minds when presented with new info, and I appreciate you doing that. :)
Excellent interview and great information, Judy! You are completely trustworthy, and God bless you for spreading truth!! Paula
Great video. You will always have friends when you offer the truth.
Thank you, Judy and Josh. This was really impactful.
Pleasure Des :)
Enlightening conversation. Really a refreshing, real, and honest perspective and understanding. Validated by studies and living it. Thank you!
Thank you for your story...
Thank you for giving us very useful information about liver and risks of too much vitamin A. I'm glad I can just focus on the foods that I actually want to eat and not cook up gross liver or buy expensive supplements.
Richard Johnson and David Perlmutter endorse eating plants. But oxalates in veggies can cause gout. Thank you Judy for calling them out.
We grind our own meat for ground beef, Way better, no water or other by-product added. Taste is amazing
Judyyy ❤️❤️❤️❤️ thank you so much! I love it how open you are 💕 i regonize so much in you! I was also vegan and now a beginnercarnivoor 🥳 thank you sooo much!
Thank you for this video. You're right regarding people we follow... We all are different so we need to listen to our bodies and make sure that we found what works for us. Amazing talk you two!
Thank you Judy 💕
I am enjoying this valuable interview. Wish I had seen it when I started carnivore
Judy, what do you think of chickenheart? I saw there is a lot of calcium in it, what i like because of my osteopenia…but its also an organ 😅love from Holland 🌷☔️🌞
Love you Judy!
Glad you made it through all that👍
You're doing great work on this channel.
Thank you enormously 🎓🎓
I went cold turkey, a three day bone broth fast followed by, meat only. I have successfully treated a long covid, leaky gut that had taken over my life. It was Dr Mercola's suggestion to treat long covid with a carnivore diet & I was miserable enough to give it my all. Food is now fuel, tasty fuel, but still fuel. I can eat a big steak & not feel stuffed if I don't eat plants with it. I like feeling satiated instead of stuffed. Basically, we should do the opposite of what the FDA recommends. Seriously, how idiotic is the food pyramid & how much chronic illness has it caused? I hope this statement gives courage to other people who are suffering. Lean on my words. You can heal yourself.
Amazing info, you seem so articulate and well read. Thanks!!
I’ve got histamine intolerance and can only handle 5 foods for 2 years. Every month at my cycle I end up binging sugar and carbs because I’ve got pmdd depression is extreme and cravings every month this has given me bulimia because the food I binge on gives me bad reactions and I keep feeding sifo Candida and sibo. I tried the Candida diet all these others. I do the same as you at night. I pray I can get this under control with carnivore. Do you have groups or recommendations for types of people to help me with it? Psych meds made it worse gave me akathisia and damage my cns.
Walmart's ground beef in the packaging that makes it look like they packaged it in house is tainted with those weird preservatives like he was describing.
Great stuff, Judy. This was super helpful. On the same vein of sole water and trace minerals, are you a fan of droplets like KetoChow Daily Minerals? Not a plug- I’m curious how something like that jives with your points on trying to avoid playing mad scientist with minerals…
Yes. That’s what I meant with try the mixes of minerals first bc they research balances. Sole first. Then ketochow. Then consider Evening magnesium topical spray and daytime potassium. If none work, time for the HTMA test
So many great points - thank you!
Thank you for providing a wealth of information. You also bolstered my same experience with doctors. They are wrong about everything about 50% of the time.
There are very few honest doctors out there !! There are so many that are on the pharmaceutical companies payroll !! They don’t want you dead but they certainly don’t want you cured !! They sure as hell don’t care about your ultimate health !! To these parasites you are just a cash cow !! If you want to be truly healthy you need to take responsibility for your own health !!
Sadly, I think it's even higher than that. Look up the rates of iatrogenic (caused by medicine or doctors) illness, injury, and death. It's astronomical, at least in the US. Johns Hopkins university has done studies on this and found that, for each of the years since they've begun tracking it, iatrogenic death has been the fifth, fourth, or third leading cause of death in the US.
All change requires courage, effort & failure.....
You guys are awesome!
Great interview thank you
Hi Judy, I loved hearing your story (recent subscriber). Question, I have a scratchy throat and congestion on carnivore (about 2 months on now) that clears when I eat carbs (appeasing the wife, eating her cooking occasionally). You ever run into that?
I sing to the kids every night and this is very noticeable as I struggle to hit the high notes when "in" carnivore.
Pim Janssen was having migraines on strict carnivore and has found it necessary to add a few carbs into her diet. This has helped with her migraines. She has a RUclips channel.
If you have PCOS please give this a try. I have lost almost 20lbs only 2.5 months in. It makes a huge difference
Does anyone else get really tired from adding minerals?? I can have Celtic salt fine. But mineral water or adding trace minerals bring me a dizzy exhaustion. So I take a magnesium/calcium supp that works fine. But wondering why certain minerals make me feel like scary tired. Almost like I over dosed on muscle relaxers. Maybe it’s too much zinc??
I’m always careful with zinc . For me it’s one of those every now and then supplements !!
Fantastic interview
Amazing break down!
Thanks for the information. I m starting week three. Week one was fabulous week two started flu. Week three vertigo flu. I had to add a little carb to get through the day. What’s am I doing wrong?
Probably nothing, it can take some people a little while to adjust to a diet change especially if you go cold turkey, so to speak. Add a little for a week or two then try eliminating them. Listen to your body.
R U getting enough salt and/or electrolytes? Some people seem to do better with more salt.
This was so helpful
2 oz lliver caused me to have extreme dark diarrhea. It was first time I tried it. I am now officially afaid to eat it
I’m confused about eggs on carnivore all meat no carb way of eating. Eggs have some carbs and they are not meat. Is it ok to eat eggs? And how many eggs can I consume in a day? Thank you.
I took the Carnivore Cure to heal my depression about a year ago. Unlike psychotropic medications with possible side effects such as dizziness, nausea, constipation, spontaneous combustion, temporary blindness, suicidal thought, walking around in brightly colored work-out clothing with a clipboard in your hand and high-fiving everyone you see for no discernible reason (at least that's what you see in a lot of prescription drug TV commercials) the only side effects I experience from the Carnivore KETO lifestyle is an occasional case of the Meat Sweats.
I'm proud to say that for breakfast I had four strips of bacon, a couple of breakfast sausage patties, four eggs (2 over easy and 2 poached), a small skirt steak (medium rare), a protein shake, some avocado on toast and and just a soupcon of scrapple - all washed down with a nice bubbly ice cold Diet Cola. . At lunchtime, I got a can of corned beef hash from the pantry which went right into the frying pan with some chopped onions and ketchup for seasoning, and a fried egg on top. Some Beef and Barley Soup went right well with that. For dinner, it's gonna be 10 oz. of 93/7 steak tartare with an egg on top, , some thinly sliced potatoes and heirloom tomatoes pan roasted in extra virgin olive oil.. Yeah, I'm cheating a bit with "taters and maters" - but you gotta have at least SOME carbs everyday and if you don't eat any vegetables you run the risk of scurvy. I'm also proud to say that when I weighed myself right after lunchtime, I discovered that I'm halfway to my goal of shedding another 10 lbs. and my BMI is a healthy 18.2. . Wish me luck everybody!! - and have a nice protein packed weekend!. If the weather's nice where you are, fire up that charcoal or get that propane burning l and get some protein on that grill!!
You don’t need carbs to prevent scurvy, if you’re eating fresh meat your body will make all the vitamin c it needs, just like it will make all the glucose it needs.
@@generaljane7643 I suggest you try not eating fruit or vegetables. for awhile and tell me how you feel after about 30 days.
Hey Judy what are your opinions on caffeine?
More good info thank you Blessings ❤️☺️❤️
Excellent information.
Question who laid down the measure of what the daily limit should be
Ms. Judy! Could you please do a segment covering Testosterone production and Carbohydrate consumption? I feel like I get extremely contradictory info from different sides of this issue. Is a low carb diet better for testosterone production than a ketogenic diet? Do I really need 40% of my daily intake as carbs to have strong testosterone production as many musclebuilding sources claim?? Thank you
Check out Dr. Shawn Baker.
I'm feeling so good on carnivore
Help! I eat meat only and no high purine foods, no liver or sardines, no fruit and eating just meat triggers uric acid and gout that won’t go away. I’m at healthy weight and not overweight. If I start eating carbs and sugar for a week and gain weight, my gout goes away. Does anyone have any ideas what I can do stay healthy and keep gout down?
I've had 3 knuckles on my hand that swell on/off. Started 7 weeks after going carnivore. I was low carb prior & I think I have oxalate dumping. Still dealing with it & now carnivore 2 1/2 years. My doctor thought it was pseudo gout. It's really the only negative side effect I have had. So many positive things going carnivore.
There are several things you can do: eat just enough carbs (broccoli, etc) to keep the gout at bay, while keeping away from the processed carbs, of course; eat the carb food after you eat protein, so the insulin response isn’t as high; fast for longer periods. Don’t know if you already include fasting. If you do, fast longer 3 times a week, with minimum of 18 hours, and maybe add in a 2-3 36-42 hour fast a week.
Staying away from processed meats like bacon, ham etc has rid me of gout
@@boskoprastalo654 Thanks! I only eat bacon and I will try that. What about coffee?
Judy! I am on week 2 and I have a weird symptom....it's on and off pain in back of the throat. Like a sore throat but not. Any of your clients experience this? ✨🙏
Great video !
Please interview P. D. Magnan, author of Dumping Iron. Iron overload is the silent killer.
Have you ever studied the concepts of intuitive eating? I have and now i have a hard time thinking carnivore isn't also an eating disorder. I usually have a lot of meat and butter and sweet potatoes and potatoes eggs. But sometimes inwant an Amys brand tofo breakfast burrito made from rice flour. Sometimes I can be a moderator but sometimes I cant. So then i need to be an abstainer.
Thank you.
Nuts trigger gout flare ups for me.
Hi 👋- can you breast feed while on carnivore???
Why is it that carnivores, even the carnivore doctors say that we get all the vitamins and minerals we need from meat, yet you're saying that we may need some of them as supplements?
Not all meat is created equal. If you feel fine without supplements, don’t take them.
Awesome!
🥰 Thank you..
hi Judy, where are you based(country) from. tnx for your podcast, more power to you.
The glucose, dopamine rollercoaster.
SMALL.POINT: Grass Fed..... isn't "Pasturized"..... it's "Pastured".
Is there something I should know about my body after having completed my round of Accutane? I had Accutane for 6 months. November 2020-May 2021. I’ve been carnivore for 6 weeks now, though I don’t consume any liver.
Update?
Yeah, I'm 70 and have gout flares. I eat mostly meat and some brown or white rice. No organ meat. No fruits, nuts, seeds, veggies & honey. I just started going carnivore at the beginning of March.
I been on keto like 4 months and keto one month bad constipation and no vegetables like a month feel better but still mood swings and it’s been months. Don’t know what I’m doing wrong
Does carnivore diet help with gout?
I think you meant "pasture raised" not pasteurized ❤
My understanding is that water soluble vitamins are very hard to over dose on because your body will excrete excess vitamins out with your urine. It's the fat soluble vitamins you have to be careful with because your body will store excess of these vitamins in your fat. Vitamin A, E, D and K I know are fat soluble. Most if not all B vitamins are water soluble.
Vitamin B6 and B12 can get stored. But you’re right about most water soluble vitamins. There is a tolerable upper limit post I have, I’d take a look at that for nuance ♥️
it's not necessarily the meat that heals rather it's the elimination of sugar and toxic plants plus the welcome end to binge eating and seeking comfort in food. If someone is depressed it's likely because of their circumstances...
