HAPPY NEW YEAR!! For all the questions about eating the rainbow and why I'm not the biggest fan of liver, I highly recommend watching this video where I share a lot of the nuance of this topic: ruclips.net/video/EGGuJtV-Jb4/видео.html Ultimately, always find what works for you, and when you don't find it, I hope the levers and nuance I share helps you get closer to finding what works. ❤
Happy New Year! You may have covered this topic but could you let us know the difference between raw versus cooked meat. Is there really a huge difference? I just can’t eat raw.
I found that I excrete electrolytes on very low carb eating. Drinking plain water made me get dangerously low electrolytes and I had to add in electrolytes to my water. If the meats have all the potassium, magnesium and we use salt, why do we lose so much still?
I’ve been doing carnivore for 7 days. I’m a medical technologist and I can test myself routinely. I was borderline diabetic with an A1C of 6.2%. In only 5 days it’s down to 5.7%. My other labs have already improved quite a bit. Cholesterol is up higher than ever at 233 but I’m not concerned about that. My HDL has always been borderline low, around 38 at the highest. It’s up to 42. Anyone who says the carnivore diet isn’t healthy is wrong. I didn’t expect these changes for at least a month. I’ve lost 12 pounds too. I have 60 more to go. I’m in for the long haul.
@@jose_villagomez I eat steak, bacon, butter , eggs, some chicken fish, pork, all cooked in butter, lard or tallow. I use some seasonings that have to sugar.
@@jameswhittington2318 that sounds delicious, i wish i could eat purely carnivore i have the discipline to do so but my sleep goes to shite if i dont eat some type of carb. ive done supplementation & all lol
4 years of carnivore and I find that I don’t need as much water. I don’t need any supplements. I do need more animal fat but less food overall. I’m 63 years old,32 inch waist, 5’8” 185 pounds no meds no aches or pains. Super strong 15 chin ups no problem. Push ups I can’t count that high. Memory and cognition are as good as ever. So my life is very simple low stress and no limits.
I love your comment at the end that your body is the only place that you have to live. I am really glad for this video. I started carnivore about two weeks ago and there are so many different opinions on how to do it. This is a realistic list that I will definitely incorporate into my carnivore adventure. I already feel better but there are things that I will try and tweak so it is best for me. Thank you so much.
Yes. Keep it simple and listen to your body. But not to carb cravings! Those will take time to fade. Have a Pat of butter and some pork skins and seltzer water to distract from them. Those carb cravings fade away as the bacteria that eat carbs leave your gut.
I grew up in Germany with liverwurst and blood sausage. Im new to Carnivore, less than a week in. I bought frozen calf liver and cooked one slice in the pan, only adding salt. Didn't know what to expect, but I love it! Very delish! It reminds me in taste and texture of my beloved calf liverwurst. I think when you grow up with it you will enjoy it. 🙂
I've watched so many videos on the carnivore diet, I'm entering my 4th month being total carnivore. This video is by leaps and bou ds the best most informative I've watched!! Thank you!
Great stuff Judy. One thing I would add from experience is that those of us coming from a high oxalate background may need to keep some oxlate foods in close to the beginning to avoid potential dumping issues. It is very nuanced for sure. Best to you as always. James
After recently going from 9 years vegan w/ OMAD 20-22IF until next, next and next I only ate 16 ozs of organic grass feed ground beef. I knew something monumental had happened. It felt like my cells woke up wagging their tails with happy That 1st, 2nd; and 3rd day I did not fall asleep WHILE eating & doing fact plant in my plate of food like I had done daily for 6 years...I just had sudden fatique so severe I could not have lifted my foot to go up up a step-I did not fall alseep during eating or after!!! Despite all normal labs and narcolepsy being ruled out this just when on and on in desperation I googled insulin resistance and/or metabolic syndrome search pushed me into a live feed of Dr.Berry's live feed. Deciding to try somethingbfifferent I did this 180!° diet change. Holy crappola by day 4 my underwear were too big; day 6 viseral fat shrunk so rapidly it severly compression bruised all those organs now. By day 6 had gone from a size 22 pants to a size 4. thislike unzipping a Sumo Wresers's fat suit costume I stepped out the tiny me as I was before I become uber flouritoic. Wowza do not do this people. It was sooo incredibly pianful. Apparently best explanation is that it is Xenobiotics toxins, particularly Obsenogens which causes a person to grow more fat cells then you are born with having. And they are Giagantic fat cells which MAKE you look and feel fluffy. If you have any questions seek medical help please and do not do a 180° diet change. This is proof positive ever mouthful really. REALLY does counts. HOLY COW so many things immediately changed about me, another astonishing thing is it stopped food sleeps happeing while eating and skin of my whole body has change all over. My shoes and hats are too big, my hair is growing and it appears to be wavy/curly now. Weird dermatology pilar bumps on back of arms "poof" " disappeared and 7 cherry hemangiomas showed up within 7 days and now there are even more. Cellulite drastically is reduced, cracked heals are no more. Anyone have experience with these apparent en rivironmetal xenoticants please share what you think about this or what know. Thank you.
Yes I had to add some stewed rhubarb (very High oxalates but very little carbs and sugar) back into my diet, I had a very high oxalate diet. I am going to reduce it gradually 👍
This was a perfect starter video! I’ve been carnivore for 2 years but overindulged in the holiday sugary foods. Thus was great reminder information to motivate as ive been back on since January 1st. Thanks !!!!❤
That's exactly what I did. :(. I'm one of those people that either binge constantly, or do it strictly. I'm not a " middle of the road'est". Ugh. I'm back on as of Jan 1.
I am happy to hear that you can still have some plants if you wish. I love having my garden and its ok to downsize the garden if youre supplementing your meals with less veggies.
I find plain liver too strong a taste, so I freeze pieces of beef liver and then grate a small amount to mix into a large amount of ground beef. (A tip from another Carnevore video). And I happily eat tongue (the best beef cut ever), tripe, heart and kidney. Also eat roast beef, boiled beef (for the tougher cuts), and rib eye steaks. I have a lot of different chicken recipes, mainly raw chicken cut into pieces and fried in ghee or in various flavoured butters I make up (paprikka butter, garlic butter, cilantro butter, curried butter, etc.), and then, of course, there is the best fowl of all - duck. I have read about carnivors who live on only steaks and are happy. Me? I think variety is the spice of life and just enjoy the many different meats and ways to cook them.
At the moment I’m eating only red meat, eggs, bone broth and butter. The plan is to eat intuitively. I’ll have some bacon or salmon, liver or whatever if I’m craving it.
I’m currently doing a clean kosher/Daniel Plan without night shade plants, take ritual woman’s vitamins, take daily bike rides, hikes, walks or swims and do 12:12 intermittent fasting. I’m feeling regulated in terms of sleep, over all health, have lost 2 sizes and plateaued for a few weeks now. This was something I was easily able to do for the past year including celebrations. I’d like to loose 15 more pounds and enter my 30’s feeling even stronger. After doing a health review with my nutritionists it’s recommended I add more protein, consider increasing my fasting hours and she also gave me information about this carnivore diet she does. She looks great. So, here I am a new subscriber learning. Thanks for all the healthy details.
Thank you for keeping this very straight forward and easy to understand. I have found it can be very confusing trying to figure out what to do and not to do. I also appreciate the fact that there is some wiggle room which allows for individual lifestyle, etc.
Thank you for clarifying about organ meats.... I get a grind with high fat ground beef with heart from US WELLNESS - it's tasting & I can tolerate chicken liver occasionally... bone broth with marrow and rich collagen products
This was very helpful to have a large chunk of information. I’m 42 days carnivore. After 4 weeks I can add fresh onion and garlic the the ground meat I make and this helps. I was having a lot of autoimmune type symptoms with veggies more so over the last two years and have already done 2 major elimination diet. This one is the one j have found i have more energy and I take only lugols iodine and trace minerals/unflavored relyte as a “supplement”. I will try the leaving the salt in the water overnight.
Happy New Year, Judy. Your content is consistently quality. I appreciate the video and sound quality of your videos which is not consistent among carnivore content creators.
Hi Judy love your content .. I’m getting your book today. Quick question I only have one kidney so what should I be aware of while considering this approach.. water ? Higher protein ? Thsnks you
I just subscribed to your channel. I have been listening and watching a lot of different carnivore channels and I end up confused. You make the most since. Thank you for the information and I will continue to watch. I would like to know your thoughts on eating raw meat. I heard that if meat is cooked it has no nutritional value which I don't believe.
Little known secret, for folks based in or near continental Europe: salt mined from the ancient ocean in the Swiss Alps is every bit as pure as Himalayan salt. It costs less too. 🧂
Surprised you didn't mention eating small, wild caught, cold water fish to avoid mercury as much as possible. The large, long-lived fish are the biggest concern when it comes to mercury. I just wish could find affordable wild salmon more often. Sous vide salmon is probably my favorite fish choice.
Thanks Judy, those seem like common sense rules. I've been on the carnivore diet for 4 years now and I don't eat much organs, probably about 250 grams of beef liver in just over a year. I have had a little cod liver recently just to try that out, it has a weird texture.
Based on the spike in the conversation, I have attempted to do a fat fast for a couple of days, because I was slow to get into ketosis just doing carnivore. I have been making an effort to add a bit more fat to my protein and be a little more conscious about having less protein, because that could have been a culprit for spiking blood sugar. However, contrary to expectations, my fasting blood sugar has actually gone up. Especially in the mornings - it's like 115, which is quite high for me. So I tried to do some research and found that, yes, fat can spike your insulin, contrary to everything that is being put out on all the various carnivore channels. While I don't consider insulin to be the only factor in the process, this is researched evidence that is contrary to a fairly consistent party line out there. I'm wondering what your perspective is on this, since I feel like you are one of the few channels who offers a good deal of research and science to your approach, as well aspersonal and client experience. The fat I have been using for the fat fast has been an Irish grass-fed butter. Because I discovered your channel when I was first getting into carnivore, I have always used a mixed meats approach and will eat beef lamb, salmon or trout, other seafood, pork, eggs, and some chicken. It's not that I don't like chicken, but I just haven't used it much in this approach. I would say at this time, I'm probably pork heavy, although in the past I have gone through phases according to craving. It was just that prior to starting on this fat fast, the pork fat tasted the most delicious.
Have you checked the ingredients on the butter? Steak and Butter Gal just drew our attention to the new list of ingredients on Kerrygold unsalted butter. It includes skim milk which has sugars. 😭 I checked the package in my fridge and it does indeed list skim milk.😡🤬
I’m new to the carnivore diet. Been following just 3 weeks and already I feel fantastic and the weight is falling off. My question is to those who have followed this diet for years, namely what is your cholesterol like (i.e.) LDL, HDL, Triglycerides, etc.?
I've been doing carnivore for just over a month. My chronic acid reflux cough is GONE which just shocked me because I've lived with that cough for years. I'm not hungry, I tend to eat 1 1/2 meals a day. The white film I used to get on my tongue is completely gone. I didn't start this way of eating because I necessarily had health issues, I really just wanted to lose weight, 20 lbs. I don't use a scale but I see my body shrinking. I'm still trying to get used to not pooping regularly, to the point it scared me so I take mirilax a few times a week and I drink Calm (magnesium supplement) in the evening, which as a side note it is a fizzy, slight sweet flavor so it helps with needing something 'different' after all the salty meat. Some other things happening though that are amazing to me, I notice exactly when I'm 'full' or need to stop eating. I notice that I can tell immediately when I add something to my food like a seasoning or a vegetable, if it's going to agree with me. I did keto for awhile and I never was this tuned into my body and how it reacts to food. I used to drink a lot, socially, weekends that kind of thing, my craving for alcohol is gone. When I do try and have a Truly on the weekends I usually can't get through two for sure, most times I just skip it and don't miss it. I've never been a soda drinker so that isn't an issue and I was never a regular sweets eater either so giving up sugar is no problem. I do add a drop of stevia in my one cup of morning coffee which I've been mixing with cocoa butter and heavy cream. I eat pork rinds when craving a crunch. I know everyone loves the butter thing but I can't get on board with eating butter by the stick lol. I add it to all my food, I haven't tried it in my coffee yet. I like butter but it's a texture thing I think. But I eat ALL the fat on the meat I eat and I deliberately choose super fatty meat and I love seafood. So for starting out just wanting to lose weight and like many others trying absolutely everything to do it, I'm losing weight but I'm more impressed with how tuned into my body I am, I can't hardly believe it. I can't wait to see where I am in the next few months with this. I guess if I had a question it would be on fermented foods. I love kimchi, I actually make my own, and another person on the subject said if I can tolerate it that fermented foods were the safest with carnivore. I can say even now I don't reach for it much unless I'm craving the flavor. Can anyone talk about fermented foods? I know this was long , sorry lol.
Carnivore is dangerous due to the complete insane lack of dietary fiber for intestinal function and supporting the gut microbiome couple that with the excessive meat/fat/protein nature and zero fiber its a recipe for imbalancing the gut flora long-term, increasing colorectal cancer risk etc. The carb restriction only temporarily works to reduce symptoms of yeast overgrowth etc. But does nothing to correct the underlying factors such as low stomach acid, which is the most common cause of GERD and the likes of candida overgrowth. Dysbiosis is also common and its the prebiotic fibers in the diet which are the primary component for supporting the beneficial gut bacteria.
@@TheNaturalHealthBlogger Rick Rodriguez has been eating this way for more than 40 years and has none of these issues. Have you noticed that as we follow what is recommended we keep getting sicker and sicker? Dr Shawn Baker has hundreds of success stories posted on his website with people that resolved chronic conditions by following this way of eating. Have you seen the Tufts study that suggests sugary cereals are healthier that eggs and meat? There's an article titled "Are Lucky Charms and Cheerios healthier than beef and eggs?" Do you believe this to be true?
@@chrism746 Shawn Baker was prediabetic hba1c and numerous other abnormal blood work a mere year into his carnivore promotion, hardly good health markers to be prediabetic. I've not come across the study or article so couldn't comment on that. But no the general consensus from the research is that beef and eggs are significantly healthier than sugary refined cereals, which most studies don't even claim to be healthy, they are considered unhealthy processed foods generally compared to the likes of wholegrains.
i'm eating liver for the very reason that it's rich in copper, since muscle meat is rich in zinc. If i eat 2lbs of beef, i get 41mg of sinc. add some eggs and stuff and i might get 50mg. if i'm going for a zinc to copper ratio of the recommended 8:1, i need 6.25mg of copper, which i won't even be close to getting from that 2lbs of beef and eggs, but i'll get it in about 1.5oz beef liver. I understand that we get some copper in our water, but i don't think that's more than 1mg or so. The maximum allowed copper levels in drinking water is 2mg, and i think most places have much lower than that. i wonder what your thoughts on this are.
calories in - calories out has not been debunked. it's the basic laws of thermal dynamics at work in our body. what people usually get wrong is understanding their base metabolic rate, how much they actually do in terms of energy and how much they actually consume and how much is processed into usable energy.
I can barely afford grass-fed ground beef. I buy a forty-pound box every three months. I have lost nearly all my molars from sugar consumption - therefore I can't chew steak. I hoping my butcher will throw in some fat trimmings since I am a loyal customer. He just raised the price of his ground beef to $8.99 a pound.
Thanks for this great information. I started carnivore 2 weeks ago and I am still trying to figure out the best way to eat as I need to lose about 100 pounds.
I just found this study today by the ADA where their conclusion was that more fat weight was gained by the participants eating saturated fat vs PUFA. They also gained more visceral fat and fatty liver. I was wondering what you thought about this. Here's the study: Overfeeding of Polyunsaturated Versus Saturated Fatty Acids Reduces Ectopic Fat George A. Bray; Ronald M. Krauss
Problem is that this study was just 4 weeks and we don't know what was their diet during this time . Second question is what should I imagine about "muffin " . And last one is that it is very important where you live , because if you eat the same diet but you change place you obtain else results. But I am not fan of saturated fat because I think monosaturated are the best.
Numerous studies find excessive saturated fat and excess calories from saturated fat to worsen fatty liver, insulin resistance in diabetes, impair endothelial function etc.
@@joeunderwood2530 “The habitual consumption of a diet high in SF in relation to polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fat was strongly associated with impaired endothelial function in young overweight adults, potentially contributing to increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease.” - [1] “Consumption of a saturated fat reduces the anti-inflammatory potential of HDL and impairs arterial endothelial function. In contrast, the anti-inflammatory activity of HDL improves after consumption of polyunsaturated fat.” - [2] “High SFA caused deterioration in FMD compared with high PUFA, MUFA, or CARB diets. Inflammatory responses may also be increased on this diet.” - [3] “In conclusion, endothelial fibrinolytic dysfunction may underlie the increased atherothrombotic disease risk with a diet high in saturated fat.” - [4] all the references in there for the saturated fat endothelial function studies.

And regarding vitamin C. the RDI is 70-100mg, and that's what's needed to not have any symptoms of deficiency, but what about the fact that most other animals make their own vitamin C. And a lot of it. Other animals around our size make several grams of it per day (and much more when they're sick). And gorillas that can't make it get their's from the diet, and they too get several grams of it. I don't think it's optimal to only get
@@jennieadams4174 but other carnivores still get several grams a day. I don't think Lions eat the standard American diet. If almost all other animals get grams, it feels like that's probably better.
I've recently seen an interview with Elliot Overton, talking about some carnivore clients that would develop scurvy symptoms even after months and months on carnivore. They still had problems with diarrea, and after megadosing them with 5g of Vit C it disappeared within 1-2 days. They then slowly weened off the supplement and were fine. I believe over a transition period depending on your previous diet/lifestyle we can have very big individual differences on depleted vitamins/minerals, and for some people a much more drastically approach could be highly beneficial. What I love most about the carnivore community is that everyone is a n=1 experiment, trying to optimize their health day by day, and listening closely to their bodies signals. It just isn't enough to not feel bad, but to actually feel amazing, and in the long run, dropping dogmas and RDAs and zeroing in on the personal best health for oneself.
Hey Judy - I'm a faithful follower and carnivore at almost 78. But this isn't about me. I'm feeling a bit panicky for my 11-year-old grandson, who was diagnosed on Christmas Eve-Day with ITP (immune thrombocytopenic purpura). He was treated with IVIG treatments Christmas Day trying to get his blood platelets up to the number 25. They succeeded and sent him home. Now, today at this checkup his numbers were down to 12 - he had another round of IVIG today and is home. His labs "look clear with no indication anything is wrong with his immune system." We are all praying for his healing. I just wonder if anyone outside the medical field would have insights or suggestions. So frightened for him.
Prayers for your grandson's improving health and wisdom for the family. By eating the correct human diet you are sharing by example the best human way to eat.
So sorry to hear this . I pray your grandson gets through this and lives a healthy life, and that his family can stay calm, strong and hopeful around him. ✌💞
For me, I need Electrolytes. I had muscle cramps when I started Carnivore. Electrolyte drops in my bone broth about once a week, not daily as the instructions say seem to be about right.
Electrolytes are good too. I recommend sole water as the cheapest option. But if not, then trace mineral drops are great. nutritionwithjudy.com/sole-water-recipe-balancing-electrolytes/
Question I have gastroparesis and I’m really thin! I’ve been on a modified paleo diet which has kept my head above water, but I’m hoping carnivore could be what’s needed for healing! I’m reacting to nearly everything I eat! I’m also concerned this diet will cause me to lose more--when I need to put on weight!
I love cod liver. I'm trying to boost my omega-3s with it. Cod liver is a mega dose of omega-3s vitamin A D E selenium and iodine. I try to eat it once a week along with some daily cold liver oil. My only supplements are cod liver oil a few drops of iodine a day and lots of sea salt.
You covered salts some but salts should be one of the rules. Electrolytes are one of the most important parts of a keto carnivore or ketovore. A good sea salt is your cheapest electrolyte
I have been researching on carnivore. I may be more accesible to pork than beef but I heard we have to cook pork long hours to kill the parasites before eating. Any suggestions how long do we need to cook pork? And will eating too much meat cause body to be acidic? Thank you. God bless you for sharing, educating and helping people to live healthily.
How about the folate deficiencies rampant in medium to long term carnivore dieters? I believe this issue has come up before in some of your previous interviews, and hasn't really been addressed without having to supplement
Thank you so much for your videos! I’m currently five months postpartum and hair loss hit me at the three month mark and it has consistently continued. I went carnivore four months ago for healing brain fog iron deficiency, avoiding postpartum hairloss, healing acne and weight loss. Weight loss has stalled for the last two months, acne has cleared! But hairloss is staying consistent please give me any advice to help this, could it be I’m not eating enough while breastfeeding? Also I’m taking beef liver capsules for supplementation. Please help!
Judy, Please help! I had been Carnivore for 14 months. High fat 80/20, beef liver once a week. Lmnt electrolytes. I healed Hashimotos. I lost 45 lbs when nothing I did for 4 years worked I’m 53 and I have been in Menopause for 4 years. I have had Hashimotos since I was 30. I did something so stupid and went off my woe for most of the month of December 2022. I went back on Dec 26th. I just caught the C for first time since Carnivvore. Never again! What can I do? Thank you so very much!
Hi Judy, thank you for all you do. I have a question. I've been listening to a cardiologist who is very pro-fasting, eating low carbs, no sugars, no refined foods, and no seed oils. But then he said the following: "There is a growing body of evidence that suggests high dietary protein levels can stop autophagy and stimulate mTOR....which leads to cell proliferation which increases your risk of cancer." He went on to say the evidence was unequivocal. Unfortunately, he did not include any of the studies he was referencing in his talk. I've learned quite a bit from him but now I'm questioning it all because of that statement. Would love to hear your thoughts. Thank you.
@Kelley Koobs I think generally carnivore is high fat, moderate protein and zero carb so not sure if this would apply. This may be an issue for someone that's overeating protein by a lot but since he didn't provide a source we'll never know. With all the doctors that are following this way of eating I'm not concerned.
huh so i just "imagined" my lethargy "imagined" feeling like shit and "imagined" that the diet wasnt working for me 🤔 (4 months into it) *wow* thanks for clearing that one up
I would be very interested to hear about your results if you had Skype consultations with Judy or Dr. Shawn Baker or Dr. Ken Berry, or scientist Bart Kay or Dr. Chaffee or Dr. Paul Mason. I want to believe that there are good answers that involve sticking to a carnivore diet.
Sorry, I'm not sure the context. If you tell me what you meant, I'll try to come back on and answer. (PS. I don't think people imagine illness. but there are ways to improve any diet to make you not feel that way anymore.)
@@NutritionwithJudy I know, I was just saying it would be interesting to hear your thoughts if you did have a Skype with him. Love your work, keep it up!

@@TheNaturalHealthBlogger that’s very false many studies show that people who have high cholesterol tends to live much longer then those who have normal cholesterol! High cholesterol isn’t a problem as long as it’s Not oxidized
@@cedricmayfield7058 No there are some studies which find slightly higher cholesterol levels to live longer. They don't find individuals with off the charts LDL-C levels to be healthy. Oxidized or not, elevated LDL-C is still a concern. "Consistent evidence from numerous and multiple different types of clinical and genetic studies unequivocally establishes that LDL causes ASCVD."
Do you disagree with Dr. Brownstein's view on iodine, since you interviewed him? He believes most people are iodine deficient, but you don't seem to advocate iodine supplementation.
Ketosis is not the reason 99% of these individuals are radically losing weight on this dangerous carnivore fad diet. They are losing weight simply through the mechanism of caloric restriction. Many of these individuals are either radically undereating on carnivore, I speak with some who eat as little as 600-1200 calories of meat/animal foods, thats undereating even for a female adult. You've got males who are 100s of pounds overweight coming from a hypercaloric western junk food diet of 3000-5000+ calories, so of course they radically lose weight doing the above. Not a healthy method to achieve weight loss though following this extreme all meat/animal food no healthy plant nonsense. Animal foods are some of the most caloric dense foods going so to try formulate an entire diet of these foods is nonsensical, there is a reason high plant intake in studies generally confers to low BMI, weight loss etc.
Any update? Another reason may be because if you had a fatty liver, the body fixes that first and next the inches come off your waistline. You will also benefit if you include intermittent fasting. You will not lose weight easily if you eat so often that your body always has insulin present.
To lose weight, I would still need to be in a caloric deficit, yes? I love Carnivore, but Im afraid I am over eating and defeating the effort to lose weight.
I've noticed that when it comes to adding fat to my basis of ruminant animals that I seem to tolerate half and half better than butter with regards to not having bowel distress. Has anyone else experienced this? I was under the the impression that between the two that butter would be superior.
@malindadenlinger882 It was grass fed organic butter. I have no access to raw heavy cream. As of right now, I have found that I do best with just 80/20 ground beef and salt.
@malindadenlinger882 That's been the plan for sure. I'm glad that's working out for you. I tried the cold butter, too. That almost always ended up with me having bad bowel distress soon after eating.
As far as how much organ meat to consume, think of it in terms of a the whole animal. Are you eating the proportional equivalent of one liver per animal?

So my life is very simple low stress and no limits.
And lots and lots of BULLSHIT.
WITHOUT SUPPLEMENTS YOU WOULD HAVE DIED FROM SCURVY IN ABOUT 1 YEAR!
Great!🙏Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪
I love your comment at the end that your body is the only place that you have to live. I am really glad for this video. I started carnivore about two weeks ago and there are so many different opinions on how to do it. This is a realistic list that I will definitely incorporate into my carnivore adventure. I already feel better but there are things that I will try and tweak so it is best for me. Thank you so much.
Yes. Keep it simple and listen to your body. But not to carb cravings! Those will take time to fade. Have a Pat of butter and some pork skins and seltzer water to distract from them. Those carb cravings fade away as the bacteria that eat carbs leave your gut.
I grew up in Germany with liverwurst and blood sausage. Im new to Carnivore, less than a week in. I bought frozen calf liver and cooked one slice in the pan, only adding salt. Didn't know what to expect, but I love it! Very delish! It reminds me in taste and texture of my beloved calf liverwurst. I think when you grow up with it you will enjoy it. 🙂
I've watched so many videos on the carnivore diet, I'm entering my 4th month being total carnivore. This video is by leaps and bou ds the best most informative I've watched!! Thank you!
Great stuff Judy. One thing I would add from experience is that those of us coming from a high oxalate background may need to keep some oxlate foods in close to the beginning to avoid potential dumping issues. It is very nuanced for sure. Best to you as always. James
After recently going from 9 years vegan w/ OMAD 20-22IF until next,
next and next I only ate 16 ozs of organic grass feed ground beef. I knew something monumental had happened. It felt like my cells woke up wagging their tails with happy That 1st, 2nd; and 3rd day I did not fall asleep WHILE eating & doing fact plant in my plate of
food like I had done daily for 6 years...I just had sudden fatique so severe I could not have lifted my foot to go up up a step-I did not fall alseep during eating or after!!!
Despite all normal labs and narcolepsy being ruled out this just when on and on in desperation I googled insulin resistance and/or metabolic syndrome search pushed me into a live feed of Dr.Berry's live feed.
Deciding to try somethingbfifferent I did this 180!° diet change.
Holy crappola by day 4 my underwear were too big; day 6 viseral fat shrunk so rapidly it severly compression bruised all those organs now. By day 6 had gone from a size 22 pants to a size 4. thislike unzipping a Sumo Wresers's fat suit costume I stepped out the tiny me as I was before I become uber flouritoic. Wowza do not do this people. It was sooo incredibly pianful.
Apparently best explanation is that it is Xenobiotics toxins, particularly Obsenogens which causes a person to grow more fat cells then you are born with having. And they are Giagantic fat cells which MAKE you look and feel fluffy. If you have any questions seek medical help please and do not do a 180° diet change. This is proof positive ever mouthful really. REALLY does counts.
HOLY COW so many things immediately changed about me, another astonishing thing is it stopped food sleeps happeing while eating and skin of my whole body has change all over. My shoes and hats are too big, my hair is growing and it appears to be wavy/curly now. Weird dermatology pilar bumps on back of arms "poof" " disappeared and 7 cherry hemangiomas showed up within 7 days and now there are even more. Cellulite drastically is reduced, cracked heals are no more.
Anyone have experience with these apparent en rivironmetal xenoticants please share what you think about this or what know. Thank you.
Yes I had to add some stewed rhubarb (very High oxalates but very little carbs and sugar) back into my diet, I had a very high oxalate diet. I am going to reduce it gradually 👍
This was a perfect starter video! I’ve been carnivore for 2 years but overindulged in the holiday sugary foods. Thus was great reminder information to motivate as ive been back on since January 1st. Thanks !!!!❤
Me too !
That's exactly what I did. :(. I'm one of those people that either binge constantly, or do it strictly. I'm not a " middle of the road'est". Ugh. I'm back on as of Jan 1.
I am happy to hear that you can still have some plants if you wish. I love having my garden and its ok to downsize the garden if youre supplementing your meals with less veggies.
Really glad I saw and watched this video today. Thanks for doing it for us all.
I find plain liver too strong a taste, so I freeze pieces of beef liver and then grate a small amount to mix into a large amount of ground beef. (A tip from another Carnevore video). And I happily eat tongue (the best beef cut ever), tripe, heart and kidney. Also eat roast beef, boiled beef (for the tougher cuts), and rib eye steaks. I have a lot of different chicken recipes, mainly raw chicken cut into pieces and fried in ghee or in various flavoured butters I make up (paprikka butter, garlic butter, cilantro butter, curried butter, etc.), and then, of course, there is the best fowl of all - duck. I have read about carnivors who live on only steaks and are happy. Me? I think variety is the spice of life and just enjoy the many different meats and ways to cook them.
This was excellent Judy... thanks so much 🥰
At the moment I’m eating only red meat, eggs, bone broth and butter. The plan is to eat intuitively. I’ll have some bacon or salmon, liver or whatever if I’m craving it.
I love your teaching videos superrrrr!!!! Please keep coming…..truly appreciate 🎉❤
I’m currently doing a clean kosher/Daniel Plan without night shade plants, take ritual woman’s vitamins, take daily bike rides, hikes, walks or swims and do 12:12 intermittent fasting. I’m feeling regulated in terms of sleep, over all health, have lost 2 sizes and plateaued for a few weeks now. This was something I was easily able to do for the past year including celebrations. I’d like to loose 15 more pounds and enter my 30’s feeling even stronger. After doing a health review with my nutritionists it’s recommended I add more protein, consider increasing my fasting hours and she also gave me information about this carnivore diet she does. She looks great. So, here I am a new subscriber learning. Thanks for all the healthy details.
Thanks Judy! These simple overview videos are a great way to see your latest thinking on the basic elements of the diet.
Thanks for watching, and happy new year!🥰
Thank you for keeping this very straight forward and easy to understand. I have found it can be very confusing trying to figure out what to do and not to do. I also appreciate the fact that there is some wiggle room which allows for individual lifestyle, etc.
Thank you for all you do. Your so helpful. I’m listening to your book too as well as watching your videos 😊Will you be at Ketocon in April?
Yes I'm leading a Carnivore Women panel!
Thank you for clarifying about organ meats.... I get a grind with high fat ground beef with heart from US WELLNESS - it's tasting & I can tolerate chicken liver occasionally... bone broth with marrow and rich collagen products
❤ you Judy....thanks for all you do...Meat Heals
You are welcome! Meat absolutely heals ❤
Judy is so helpful..BALANCED!
This was very helpful to have a large chunk of information. I’m 42 days carnivore. After 4 weeks I can add fresh onion and garlic the the ground meat I make and this helps. I was having a lot of autoimmune type symptoms with veggies more so over the last two years and have already done 2 major elimination diet. This one is the one j have found i have more energy and I take only lugols iodine and trace minerals/unflavored relyte as a “supplement”. I will try the leaving the salt in the water overnight.
Happy New Year, Judy. Your content is consistently quality. I appreciate the video and sound quality of your videos which is not consistent among carnivore content creators.
Quality would be even better with a few pauses between points!
This was very helpful and I’m just starting out so you gave me some good information. Thank you so much!
I truly enjoy watching your videos. So full of great content and has helped me so much! Keep the videos coming-- love them!!
Excellent as always 🎉
Thank you Deana
Hi Judy love your content .. I’m getting your book today. Quick question I only have one kidney so what should I be aware of while considering this approach.. water ? Higher protein ? Thsnks you
Great advice. New carnivores especially will benefit from this video!
I am literally eating liver while watching this...lol....whenever I am feeling off...it is my go to.
Lots of new info coming out on the vinegar. I would avoid .’ Thanks for the rest of the info !
I just subscribed to your channel. I have been listening and watching a lot of different carnivore channels and I end up confused. You make the most since. Thank you for the information and I will continue to watch. I would like to know your thoughts on eating raw meat. I heard that if meat is cooked it has no nutritional value which I don't believe.
@Jennie Adams Thank you
Little known secret, for folks based in or near continental Europe: salt mined from the ancient ocean in the Swiss Alps is every bit as pure as Himalayan salt. It costs less too. 🧂
Surprised you didn't mention eating small, wild caught, cold water fish to avoid mercury as much as possible. The large, long-lived fish are the biggest concern when it comes to mercury. I just wish could find affordable wild salmon more often. Sous vide salmon is probably my favorite fish choice.
I love liver with onions and liver pâté 😋 , specially duck’s ones
Organs are best in the food form!
Thank you for this great information!!
Thanks Judy, those seem like common sense rules.
I've been on the carnivore diet for 4 years now and I don't eat much organs, probably about 250 grams of beef liver in just over a year. I have had a little cod liver recently just to try that out, it has a weird texture.
Based on the spike in the conversation, I have attempted to do a fat fast for a couple of days, because I was slow to get into ketosis just doing carnivore. I have been making an effort to add a bit more fat to my protein and be a little more conscious about having less protein, because that could have been a culprit for spiking blood sugar. However, contrary to expectations, my fasting blood sugar has actually gone up. Especially in the mornings - it's like 115, which is quite high for me. So I tried to do some research and found that, yes, fat can spike your insulin, contrary to everything that is being put out on all the various carnivore channels. While I don't consider insulin to be the only factor in the process, this is researched evidence that is contrary to a fairly consistent party line out there. I'm wondering what your perspective is on this, since I feel like you are one of the few channels who offers a good deal of research and science to your approach, as well aspersonal and client experience. The fat I have been using for the fat fast has been an Irish grass-fed butter. Because I discovered your channel when I was first getting into carnivore, I have always used a mixed meats approach and will eat beef lamb, salmon or trout, other seafood, pork, eggs, and some chicken. It's not that I don't like chicken, but I just haven't used it much in this approach. I would say at this time, I'm probably pork heavy, although in the past I have gone through phases according to craving. It was just that prior to starting on this fat fast, the pork fat tasted the most delicious.
It’s a dawn phanonam. So just have little protein in the morning
Have you checked the ingredients on the butter? Steak and Butter Gal just drew our attention to the new list of ingredients on Kerrygold unsalted butter. It includes skim milk which has sugars. 😭 I checked the package in my fridge and it does indeed list skim milk.😡🤬
@@mycupoverflows7811 In this case, nothing is listed, no.
I’m new to the carnivore diet. Been following just 3 weeks and already I feel fantastic and the weight is falling off. My question is to those who have followed this diet for years, namely what is your cholesterol like (i.e.) LDL, HDL, Triglycerides, etc.?
Only Triglyceride less then 100 you should want. Elevated ldl will be ok. Hdl should be higher
@@Joyful12345 Thank you 😃
I keep a good stock of butter on hand, so I can use all kinds of meat, fatty or not.
I've been doing carnivore for just over a month. My chronic acid reflux cough is GONE which just shocked me because I've lived with that cough for years. I'm not hungry, I tend to eat 1 1/2 meals a day. The white film I used to get on my tongue is completely gone. I didn't start this way of eating because I necessarily had health issues, I really just wanted to lose weight, 20 lbs. I don't use a scale but I see my body shrinking. I'm still trying to get used to not pooping regularly, to the point it scared me so I take mirilax a few times a week and I drink Calm (magnesium supplement) in the evening, which as a side note it is a fizzy, slight sweet flavor so it helps with needing something 'different' after all the salty meat. Some other things happening though that are amazing to me, I notice exactly when I'm 'full' or need to stop eating. I notice that I can tell immediately when I add something to my food like a seasoning or a vegetable, if it's going to agree with me. I did keto for awhile and I never was this tuned into my body and how it reacts to food. I used to drink a lot, socially, weekends that kind of thing, my craving for alcohol is gone. When I do try and have a Truly on the weekends I usually can't get through two for sure, most times I just skip it and don't miss it. I've never been a soda drinker so that isn't an issue and I was never a regular sweets eater either so giving up sugar is no problem. I do add a drop of stevia in my one cup of morning coffee which I've been mixing with cocoa butter and heavy cream. I eat pork rinds when craving a crunch. I know everyone loves the butter thing but I can't get on board with eating butter by the stick lol. I add it to all my food, I haven't tried it in my coffee yet. I like butter but it's a texture thing I think. But I eat ALL the fat on the meat I eat and I deliberately choose super fatty meat and I love seafood. So for starting out just wanting to lose weight and like many others trying absolutely everything to do it, I'm losing weight but I'm more impressed with how tuned into my body I am, I can't hardly believe it. I can't wait to see where I am in the next few months with this. I guess if I had a question it would be on fermented foods. I love kimchi, I actually make my own, and another person on the subject said if I can tolerate it that fermented foods were the safest with carnivore. I can say even now I don't reach for it much unless I'm craving the flavor. Can anyone talk about fermented foods? I know this was long , sorry lol.
Carnivore is dangerous due to the complete insane lack of dietary fiber for intestinal function and supporting the gut microbiome
couple that with the excessive meat/fat/protein nature and zero fiber its a recipe for imbalancing the gut flora long-term, increasing colorectal cancer risk etc.
The carb restriction only temporarily works to reduce symptoms of yeast overgrowth etc. But does nothing to correct the underlying factors such as low stomach acid, which is the most common cause of GERD and the likes of candida overgrowth.
Dysbiosis is also common and its the prebiotic fibers in the diet which are the primary component for supporting the beneficial gut bacteria.
@@TheNaturalHealthBlogger Rick Rodriguez has been eating this way for more than 40 years and has none of these issues. Have you noticed that as we follow what is recommended we keep getting sicker and sicker? Dr Shawn Baker has hundreds of success stories posted on his website with people that resolved chronic conditions by following this way of eating.
Have you seen the Tufts study that suggests sugary cereals are healthier that eggs and meat? There's an article titled "Are Lucky Charms and Cheerios healthier than beef and eggs?" Do you believe this to be true?
@@chrism746 Shawn Baker was prediabetic hba1c and numerous other abnormal blood work a mere year into his carnivore promotion, hardly good health markers to be prediabetic.
I've not come across the study or article so couldn't comment on that.
But no the general consensus from the research is that beef and eggs are significantly healthier than sugary refined cereals, which most studies don't even claim to be healthy, they are considered unhealthy processed foods generally compared to the likes of wholegrains.
Ok love this ! ❤ but why am I dreaming of bumpy cake 🎂?
I supplement since im primarily a meat eater with some dairy and fermented vegetables
i'm eating liver for the very reason that it's rich in copper, since muscle meat is rich in zinc. If i eat 2lbs of beef, i get 41mg of sinc. add some eggs and stuff and i might get 50mg. if i'm going for a zinc to copper ratio of the recommended 8:1, i need 6.25mg of copper, which i won't even be close to getting from that 2lbs of beef and eggs, but i'll get it in about 1.5oz beef liver. I understand that we get some copper in our water, but i don't think that's more than 1mg or so. The maximum allowed copper levels in drinking water is 2mg, and i think most places have much lower than that.
i wonder what your thoughts on this are.
calories in - calories out has not been debunked. it's the basic laws of thermal dynamics at work in our body. what people usually get wrong is understanding their base metabolic rate, how much they actually do in terms of energy and how much they actually consume and how much is processed into usable energy.
Love you Judy, such great information!! I follow all of your advice!!
No problem with Cooper. Morley Robins
Salt. Yes, that is one of the things that is so helpful. Most of us are low on salt too, right?
Yay! Thank you! I’m getting back on the carnivore wagon! 🎉🎊🥳❤️🙏
I raise my own meat, there’s no visible fat … I’m inclined to eat it w avocado
Thank you for sharing. Very informative.
Great. ❤ the graphics too!
Very good video ms Judy
Love the hoodie, Judy!
Hi Kevin! Thank you and happy new year!
I can barely afford grass-fed ground beef. I buy a forty-pound box every three months. I have lost nearly all my molars from sugar consumption - therefore I can't chew steak. I hoping my butcher will throw in some fat trimmings since I am a loyal customer. He just raised the price of his ground beef to $8.99 a pound.
Thanks for this great information. I started carnivore 2 weeks ago and I am still trying to figure out the best way to eat as I need to lose about 100 pounds.
Great suggestions, thank you!
I just found this study today by the ADA where their conclusion was that more fat weight was gained by the participants eating saturated fat vs PUFA. They also gained more visceral fat and fatty liver. I was wondering what you thought about this. Here's the study: Overfeeding of Polyunsaturated Versus Saturated Fatty Acids Reduces Ectopic Fat
George A. Bray; Ronald M. Krauss
Problem is that this study was just 4 weeks and we don't know what was their diet during this time . Second question is what should I imagine about "muffin " .
And last one is that it is very important where you live , because if you eat the same diet but you change place you obtain else results.
But I am not fan of saturated fat because I think monosaturated are the best.
Numerous studies find excessive saturated fat and excess calories from saturated fat to worsen fatty liver, insulin resistance in diabetes, impair endothelial function etc.
@@TheNaturalHealthBlogger post those studies.... studies and "consensus" are two completely different things.
@@joeunderwood2530 “The habitual consumption of a diet high in SF in relation to polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fat was strongly associated with impaired endothelial function in young overweight adults, potentially contributing to increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease.” - [1]
“Consumption of a saturated fat reduces the anti-inflammatory potential of HDL and impairs arterial endothelial function. In contrast, the anti-inflammatory activity of HDL improves after consumption of polyunsaturated fat.” - [2]
“High SFA caused deterioration in FMD compared with high PUFA, MUFA, or CARB diets. Inflammatory responses may also be increased on this diet.” - [3]
“In conclusion, endothelial fibrinolytic dysfunction may underlie the increased atherothrombotic disease risk with a diet high in saturated fat.” - [4]
all the references in there for the saturated fat endothelial function studies.

Your advice is sound science and accurate 🙂👌👍‼️❤️
VERY HELPFUL!
And regarding vitamin C. the RDI is 70-100mg, and that's what's needed to not have any symptoms of deficiency, but what about the fact that most other animals make their own vitamin C. And a lot of it. Other animals around our size make several grams of it per day (and much more when they're sick). And gorillas that can't make it get their's from the diet, and they too get several grams of it. I don't think it's optimal to only get
@@jennieadams4174 but other carnivores still get several grams a day. I don't think Lions eat the standard American diet. If almost all other animals get grams, it feels like that's probably better.
Definitely agree! I take 2-3 grams, preferably liposomal
I've recently seen an interview with Elliot Overton, talking about some carnivore clients that would develop scurvy symptoms even after months and months on carnivore.
They still had problems with diarrea, and after megadosing them with 5g of Vit C it disappeared within 1-2 days.
They then slowly weened off the supplement and were fine. I believe over a transition period depending on your previous diet/lifestyle we can have very big individual differences on depleted vitamins/minerals, and for some people a much more drastically approach could be highly beneficial.
What I love most about the carnivore community is that everyone is a n=1 experiment, trying to optimize their health day by day, and listening closely to their bodies signals.
It just isn't enough to not feel bad, but to actually feel amazing, and in the long run, dropping dogmas and RDAs and zeroing in on the personal best health for oneself.
Hey Judy - I'm a faithful follower and carnivore at almost 78. But this isn't about me. I'm feeling a bit panicky for my 11-year-old grandson, who was diagnosed on Christmas Eve-Day with ITP (immune thrombocytopenic purpura). He was treated with IVIG treatments Christmas Day trying to get his blood platelets up to the number 25. They succeeded and sent him home. Now, today at this checkup his numbers were down to 12 - he had another round of IVIG today and is home. His labs "look clear with no indication anything is wrong with his immune system." We are all praying for his healing. I just wonder if anyone outside the medical field would have insights or suggestions. So frightened for him.
Prayers for your grandson's improving health and wisdom for the family. By eating the correct human diet you are sharing by example the best human way to eat.
So sorry to hear this . I pray your grandson gets through this and lives a healthy life, and that his family can stay calm, strong and hopeful around him. ✌💞

Thank you Judy.
For me, I need Electrolytes. I had muscle cramps when I started Carnivore. Electrolyte drops in my bone broth about once a week, not daily as the instructions say seem to be about right.
Electrolytes are good too. I recommend sole water as the cheapest option. But if not, then trace mineral drops are great. nutritionwithjudy.com/sole-water-recipe-balancing-electrolytes/
Question I have gastroparesis and I’m really thin! I’ve been on a modified paleo diet which has kept my head above water, but I’m hoping carnivore could be what’s needed for healing! I’m reacting to nearly everything I eat! I’m also concerned this diet will cause me to lose more--when I need to put on weight!
Thank you!! 🥩👑
I love cod liver. I'm trying to boost my omega-3s with it. Cod liver is a mega dose of omega-3s vitamin A D E selenium and iodine. I try to eat it once a week along with some daily cold liver oil. My only supplements are cod liver oil a few drops of iodine a day and lots of sea salt.
Great vid....
You covered salts some but salts should be one of the rules. Electrolytes are one of the most important parts of a keto carnivore or ketovore. A good sea salt is your cheapest electrolyte

Hi Judy, thank you for all you do. I have a question. I've been listening to a cardiologist who is very pro-fasting, eating low carbs, no sugars, no refined foods, and no seed oils. But then he said the following: "There is a growing body of evidence that suggests high dietary protein levels can stop autophagy and stimulate mTOR....which leads to cell proliferation which increases your risk of cancer." He went on to say the evidence was unequivocal. Unfortunately, he did not include any of the studies he was referencing in his talk. I've learned quite a bit from him but now I'm questioning it all because of that statement. Would love to hear your thoughts. Thank you.
@Kelley Koobs I think generally carnivore is high fat, moderate protein and zero carb so not sure if this would apply. This may be an issue for someone that's overeating protein by a lot but since he didn't provide a source we'll never know. With all the doctors that are following this way of eating I'm not concerned.
Judy, please video about fat!
huh so i just "imagined" my lethargy "imagined" feeling like shit and "imagined" that the diet wasnt working for me 🤔 (4 months into it)
*wow* thanks for clearing that one up
I would be very interested to hear about your results if you had Skype consultations with Judy or Dr. Shawn Baker or Dr. Ken Berry, or scientist Bart Kay or Dr. Chaffee or Dr. Paul Mason. I want to believe that there are good answers that involve sticking to a carnivore diet.
Sorry, I'm not sure the context. If you tell me what you meant, I'll try to come back on and answer. (PS. I don't think people imagine illness. but there are ways to improve any diet to make you not feel that way anymore.)

What is the incidence of having an elevated LDH after starting the carnivore diet?
You may want to see videos by Drs. Paul Mason and Pradip Jamnadas and others. There's another xardiologist who covers this topic also.

Eat ground meat. Hamburger is higher in fat than steak; we want the fat.
Hi Judy, would you recommend a carnivore diet for someone with TC 456, ldl 356, triglycerides 106, hdl 57, a1c 5.4, used to be 6.4. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Why am I not losing weight on carnivore. Been on for 1 month also I’m still not in ketosis. Eating meat and butter.
Ketosis is not the reason 99% of these individuals are radically losing weight on this dangerous carnivore fad diet.
They are losing weight simply through the mechanism of caloric restriction.
Many of these individuals are either radically undereating on carnivore, I speak with some who eat as little as 600-1200 calories of meat/animal foods, thats undereating even for a female adult.
You've got males who are 100s of pounds overweight coming from a hypercaloric western junk food diet of 3000-5000+ calories, so of course they radically lose weight doing the above. Not a healthy method to achieve weight loss though following this extreme all meat/animal food no healthy plant nonsense.
Animal foods are some of the most caloric dense foods going so to try formulate an entire diet of these foods is nonsensical, there is a reason high plant intake in studies generally confers to low BMI, weight loss etc.
It could be many reasons why you not losing weight one major symptom is that you might be leptin resistance
Any update? Another reason may be because if you had a fatty liver, the body fixes that first and next the inches come off your waistline. You will also benefit if you include intermittent fasting. You will not lose weight easily if you eat so often that your body always has insulin present.
To lose weight, I would still need to be in a caloric deficit, yes? I love Carnivore, but Im afraid I am over eating and defeating the effort to lose weight.
I've noticed that when it comes to adding fat to my basis of ruminant animals that I seem to tolerate half and half better than butter with regards to not having bowel distress. Has anyone else experienced this? I was under the the impression that between the two that butter would be superior.
Is it good organic butter? Try raw heavy cream
@malindadenlinger882 It was grass fed organic butter. I have no access to raw heavy cream. As of right now, I have found that I do best with just 80/20 ground beef and salt.
@@patrickchastain2489 definitely listen to your body:) I love cold butter more than hot fat. I’m trying to balance my hormones.
@malindadenlinger882 That's been the plan for sure. I'm glad that's working out for you. I tried the cold butter, too. That almost always ended up with me having bad bowel distress soon after eating.
As far as how much organ meat to consume, think of it in terms of a the whole animal. Are you eating the proportional equivalent of one liver per animal?
