I have not eaten any poisonous plants since late June. I am a straight carnivore now and feel the best I ever have in my 80 years. Thank you for another wonderful dissertation, Dr. Chaffee !
That is so great to hear! I'm really grateful for you sharing that, and I'm very glad that my videos helped you along the way! Keep it up, it keeps getting better from here.
@@CraigMoxey-b1g All plants have defensive chemicals. Do you grow Brussels Sprouts? They contain 136 "known" carcinogens. And that's without farmer Brown even spraying them.
@@CraigMoxey-b1g Sorry to break it to you but even the plants that you grow in your garden make the same toxins that the ones farmed and shipped to local stores have.
I l've been a strict carnivore for 2 months, l am 45 years old and it's the best thing l've done in my life, my initial weight was 152 LB and now at 131LB... the arthritis in my hips is completely gone as well as my back pain, my digestion problems and stomach pain all that is gone, I am no longer tired I have full energy I have never felt that good. Ah !!! yes there are my eyes too sometimes I could not see well it was by cycle and I noticed that this problem has disappeared...l'm going to be a super girl in 1 year😅🤩 Thank you very much Anthony Chaffee and continue your good works a carnivore from Canada🥩🇨🇦
this DR and this conversation changed my life a few years back and by going carnivore and intermittent fasting my health and life have improved to the point where I feel better than I have for DECADES... and my athletic performance shows it!
Same here. I have been interested in health and wellness for 8 years since I was 24 years old. I tried everything, Mediterranean, balanced, vegetarian, vegan, lastly Keto. It was best on Keto, but I still consumed nuts, spinach and other popular low carb vegetables, I could not understand what was wrong with my energy, gut, being constantly depressed , bloated, constipated etc. Then this low carb down under talk came up on my feed, thanks to my algorithm. The pieces of puzzle aligned, went down the rabbit hole of evolutionary appropriate WOE. I am so grateful for this stuff. 18 months carnivore and never going back
This guy is spot on ,less veg more meat fish and eggs ,gives you more energy ,better immune system ,helps lower body fat ,and helps your gut bacteria .
This guy is not spot on. He’s focused on mechanisms that are largely irrelevant to human physiology and ignoring the mountains of outcome data showing, contrary to his hypothesis, that plants are healthy for human consumption.
@@mfklevenmountains of gibberish, bastardized, bought and paid for "data" to push Big Agro and Big Pharma profits. Check the vested interests behind the data, and have a look at the population health who follow the data
@@mfkleven I'd argue that humans have adapted to eat certain plants in small quantities, mostly relative to your ancestral environment. Sure some plants may have beneficial qualities, but I'd say on whole, small amount of mostly beneficial plants, decent amount of plants we can tolerate or are overall neutral up to a certain extent, and there MANY plants that are outright unhealthy in the amounts and ways humans consume them.
@@Ryshaad Also an interesting hypothesis. But human outcome studies consistently show the more plant-based your diet, the better your health outcomes. It’s pretty hard to argue otherwise without ignoring the evidence.
@@mfkleven When I stopped eating plants, my diabetes 2 disappeared, along with bloody acid reflux, arthritis, constipation and diahreah. Carnivore for life here.
Mr chaffe you are a great advocate of carnivore, your academia and practical knowledge is top notch. Soft spoken and gentle in nature. Some individual think they won the arguments against you mostly based on gressivity when come to raising voice. Nevertheless you're one of the best. Thank-you for your work.
Update : 6 months all in on carnivore. My endurance in the 110 degree desert heat is better than ever before. Gaining more muscle mass.... Still NO CARBS OR SUGAR. JUST BEEF EGGS BACON AND BUTTER
My life before carnivore. 303.2 lbs. Psoriasis most of my life. Low energy. And yes, I had my testosterone levels checked out and the levels were normal. Achy joints and bad intestinal issues. Constantly constipated. I ate fruits and vegetables on a regular basis. 8 months in carnivore... 210.4 lbs. Lots of every. No more constipation and gassing people around me. I'm a new man. Carnivore for life along with 3 day fasting every week. Not hungry. And I'm not starving myself. It's all good. 53 years old and not feeling my age.
Drinking or eating poison in moderation isn't "everything" - people should understand that fact something can be done, doesn't mean it has to be done. Our ancestors were often dead before they hit 50s and you are acting like they were mystical god level beings.
My ancestors only ate plants when meat was unavailable. Plants are only meant to be eaten to keep us from starving in harsh environments. Plants do serve as medical treatments, but only in very low dosage. 😊
@@Aquilesbaestaa once your body is fully adapted, you can go without salt, but that takes time. Better to put salt as you get two types of minerals from it.
May I ask are you eating pasteure raised meat, organic or animals that are raised as minimally processed as possible. This is not with tone im seriously asking for research.
@@shannoncook9915 O negative, and carnivore it's not a diet, but a lifestyle for me. And my health got better since the 1st two weeks, only If I had known this from my childhood.
As I described in a previous post, all living organisms create hormones and compounds that can be carcinogenic in large quantities. These very same compounds can also be detrimental to health when not enough is being made as well. Estrogen is an example of chemical hormone that is necessary for human life, but also is classified as a carcinogen because excess can cause cancer. Low amounts can cause osteoporosis, heart disease, cardiovascular disease, infertility esc. There are many compounds in nature that have beneficial properties in low quantity’s, but can cause cancer in large quantities. Organisms require a balance, hence the saying “everything in moderation”. I indeed believe meat is a fantastic easily absorbed source of nutrition, however small quantities of different foods is ideal. The trick is find out what works for you. Everyone’s genetics and micro biota is different. Everyone’s ancestors depending on region consumed something different, therefore we are all uniquely adapted to eating certain foods.
I should be dead by now. Vegan for 33 years now. I’m 51. God’s grace, no diabetes, hypertension, elevated cholesterol and not on any medication. Able to do my weekend mountain biking 😃
I get what Dr Chaffee said. Still there are people who have lived for centuries eating nearly only coconuts, and who were perfectly fine. People in Greece/Italy eat plenty of olives, and sure they also eat a lot of meat, but they are still pretty fine eating olives... I don't think that eating small amount of strawberries or blueberries whent it's the season has a massive bad impact on my average health. So I take all of that stuff seriously, but I think it can be balanced with other datas.
Well, they may be "perfectly fine" but they didn't thrive like the carnivorous tribes and places in our history. Dr. Chaffee actually has an awesome video explaining 2 tribes...one survived on mainly meat and one survived on mainly plants. The meat eaters had the best health.
@@Zenivore What do you mean they didn't thrive? They are still here and maybe that's what is meant to be. To all you beautiful ppl. The one question everyone on both sides of the isle need to ask is "What is in the food that we eat in the USA?" The meat in tribal countries is not processed in any way so of course they survive on it, they have no dis-ease or weight issues. You can see videos all day long of tribes hunting and killing monkeys and wild boar, and preparing them for dinner, all with no seasoning. In some cases they eat meat raw. I doubt they will survive long on the meat from USA. The environment and where you live has a huge impact on the quality of the food eat and the life you live. Allegedly they are foods and chemicals here in the US that are banned in other countries? Why is that? You could also apply the same argument for fruit and veg. My parents grew up in the islands and ate both meat and veg. The had farms and grew their own food. Untouched by the the processing companies. One of the reasons you have advocates for both sides is because we are all different. Ultimately do what works for you, but don't dis all the other options because it didn't work for you.
@@ceejay1532he means over time. The reign ended. Also yea bodies are different. Different bodies = different resistances and tolerances. There’s an old saying in med school “The only difference between medicine and poison, is dosage.” So while yes, you may eat a veggie that is good for you, or fruit, and while you can tolerate it, it may drop someone else who will be allergic. Ain’t ever met someone allergic to meat though.
Both my grandmothers lived beyond 100 yrs and both ate abundant F and V. Meat was maybe one meal a day and smallish . Both had larger lunches and smaller dinner . Genes plus greens 😝 Apparently the gladiators were also plant based dieters
@@statanhelier9685this is bro science bruv. I would say eat what u can digest, if something doesn't agree with you it will show in reactive nature in Ur body.
You're giving us science, but even without knowing the science of it my grandmother; born around 1900; was taught and taught in turn....parboil, drain, parboil, drain again...do this until that off/bitter taste is gone. We couldn't afford a lot of meat and filling out a meal for a big family, especially in the summertime, required plants...properly prepared.
@keshavrao212 Well, actually, I'm doing more in the kitchen because I used to just eat out all the time or just eat microwave food. Now everything I eat is cooked
What amazes me is that so many people have lived amazing and long lives eating the crap out of vegetables throughout time and now they're killing us. When you keep saying, "traces" of whatever poison veggies have, they must not be enough to even consider mentioning. My grandfather was a farmer that lived off his huge garden. He died at 85 from prostate cancer and Grandma was tending that garden a week before she died at 98. I'll take my chances, but great to know.
As omnivores humans are adapted to eat a variety of foods. Some foods contains a certain amount of substances that are not good for your health. But as long as the amount you eat does not exceed your limit, it is safe to consume. When giraffes eat the leaves of a tree, the tree responds by producing more toxins. The giraffe is eating these toxic leaves, but once it has reached its limit, it goes away to find another tree. We are adapted to deal with many of these chemicals. We just have to make sure the intake of them does not exceed our upper limit on a daily basis. Bitter substances are bad for you in high doses, but actually healthy in small doses. Prehistoric humans ate everything they could find, but animals, mushrooms and plants.
@@TitanScream just because we eat all now, it doesnt mean we are omni. Bear in mind that pretty much all the fruits and veggies we see at the grocery store have been genetically modified and do not resemble how they were thousands and millions of years ago. As for the teeth, it is actually the opposite, it shows we consume mainly meat.
I get rid off tennis elbow pain. My hands due my hard physical work with hammer had symptoms for carpal tunnel. All gone with intermitten fasten. 2 c main meal. Mainly steaks or other beef and fish and pork. Pain gone within 2 months. Enegy level increased a felt like 30 year old. Now Im 44. Guys in 20s and 30s are constantly tired. They on sugar drinks and other junk food.
What I want to understand is how does one then deal with parasites which can be acquired from meats? Are spices like cloves , cinnamon, turmeric and black pepper healthy?
I love eating meat. But. Can someone explain those people who heal on a plant, or juice method. Am confuse so, I eat meat fats and vegetables, only the one that my palate will take. I remember as a child, my mom gave me casava, taste bad, my palate refuse it immediately, now I know why, cyanide!!!.
Thats because if someone switches from a SAD diet to eating just plants or meat or both, healing still occurs, but that does not mean plants are not causing harm. Even if you think the plants you eat daily are not harming you, they are, and it will catch up to you eventually. The only thing not harmful is the meat and fat from ruminant animals and water, assuming your water is completely clean, free from deuterium and microplastics and such.
Some say it's because anyone coming from the crappy Standard Modern Diet (processed foods, junk foods) will start to heal if they eliminate all of that and start to eat real whole foods only. But long term, those who go plant based may have to deal with nutrient deficiencies, as well as potential toxic overload. It depends on how careful they are to supplement for nutritional deficiencies, and how careful they are to avoid or limit toxic plants as well as pedticides, etc. This is my guess, anyway. You just have to choose what gives you the most healing and what allows you to get stronger long term. Personally, I'd do carnivore or very customized ketovore (only eat a small amount of plants my body can deal with).
Cuz your cutting out the grains and processed foods, and not activating the randle cycle, but you get nutrient deficient without the meat and will pay the price sooner rather than later.
While I am just asking, can someone explain to me whether plants were that bad for Adam and Eve. I know that Noah after the great flood ate meat more because there were no enough plants immediately after the flood so they survived on meat. So, my belief is really about eating some selected plants, meat, fish, chicken, guinea fowl, eggs + intermittent fasting. I think also that, our human system's response to whether plant based diet or Canivor diet is different. Dr. Talked about natural toxins in plants, which plants do not have natural toxins so we can concentrate on those plants + Canivor diet 🙏
Our SAD is already 80% plant based. It will take a very long time to convince the people to think otherwise. I have cut way, way back on eating plants and totally agree with Dr. Chaffee. Working on eliminating the last few over time. ( love my aparagus!)
Carnivore for 2 years, but there is a small stash of asparagus in the freezer in case I hit a point where I have to fall off the wagon! So far, not touched it.
“Pickled Asparagus” (water, vinegar, and salt) comes in many different commercial varieties at the store or you can make your own at home. ~On Carnivore can you eat (fermented which means no vinegar) “Sauerkraut”? (look for varieties with no wine, no sulphites, and preferably organic).
@@royjohnson465 I make excellent saurkraut and other ferments, mainly for friends now as I cannot tolerate any vegetables atm. 2 years in and the Crohns is still.in healing mode.
@@lat1419 I see thank you that’s very good report. Yes fermented vegetables ‘are’ more healthy than pickled vegetables. I have read this maybe you could look up CBD Oil and Crohn’s disease.
Whole my childhood ate wild berries, vegetables, salad,also meat and were in perfect health and still are,Im 44, fit and full of energy,active. I do respect dr. sharing this information, but I don't believe it. Im making natural creams,plant based and the skin feels perfect.If would be so bad wouldn't have beneficial properties.When have hayfever, cough-drinking my own picked plant's tea- always helps.
I use to get cold sores a lot. I cleaned up my diet. My diet consists of a lot of veggies, poultry, fish, and seafood. I also significantly lowered my alcohol consumption. I haven’t had a cold sore in a couple years as well.
I’m a little skeptical to say the least but I haven’t gone totally carnivorous yet. I have however went low carb with excellent results. With a salad everyday and have taken off around twenty pounds in about two months. Slow but steady..energy level is increasing and heavy headed feeling disappearing. Almost off of metformin and glucose level just about normal. My great grandmother used to walk around the yard picking greens that grow wild and would make salad and drink leftover juice if she steamed them. She was healthy as a horse when she was badly injured when out for a walk by an intoxicated driver. And eventually succumbed to the injuries. She was ninety two.
Love this subject! Dr.Chaffee i wish you could do a video on all the anti-nutrients and what they do in the body, also talking about does for them too to where they would be more toxic and cause issues vs low exposure. I know Sally Norton's book "Toxic Superfoods" and Judy Cho's Book "Carnivore Cure" talks about these things already, but i would like to see a video done by you talking about these things more in-depth. I think people really should know and understand what these plants, vegetables, fruits ect,. have and stop scoffing at the idea that they cant harm you, we need an eye opener on the subject to explain why and show somehow why such "foods" are not meant for human consumption. Its like the mustard plant, i think theres 5+ vegetables grown from it which are all man made, and "eat the rainbow" as they say though the rainbow all comes from 1 plant, ok, but this subject imo is not talked about enough, people will still go eat a salad thinking its healthy. Eat a salad with a steak and what happens? The proteins may not get absorbed or you may get reduced absorption, things like that, the real issue is this lack of knowledge, but also that in our culture we like to mix and add everything to our foods to make it taste great, its understandable, but we also need to know that adding ingredients, like spices, or eating certain foods with other foods, may or have an adverser affect. See what people dont get is, lets say you had something happen to you and you had to stay in a hospital for a little bit, they would give you iv's of water, and some "medication" a chemical of some sort. So most people can accept these chemicals as doing something for them whatever it may be, and they "trust" and accept this reality, yet on the flip side when you eat something, your body is literally processing, converting what you ate into chemicals, and these chemicals ... doi things, react to things, ect,. in your body. It might be subtle based on the "amount" you ate, but again if you were in a hospital they are giving you a dose of a certain "medication" a chemical to create a certain response, body does the same thing, except the dose is the amount of whatever your eating. Lets bring this awareness to people because food is treated like food im not saying to deny it but, come to an awareness that if you feel terrible that something your eating, in whatever amount, daily maybe has a chemical response inside you, hence the term biochemistry. Learn about what to eat, how to eat, when to eat, and what not to eat, its like drinking alot of water or any beverage during your meal, your literally doing yourself a disfavor by diluting your food, your stomach acid cannot properly break down and utilize the nutrients that is able to be acquired if you did not dilute your meal. Drink before you eat, then sip during the meal, absorption and assimilation is the key.
@@anneiconex1473 You would be diluting what you just ate, then the stomach acids cant do what it supposed to do. Drink alot before you eat, sip while you eat, sip after, you'll never see a wild animal after eating a big meal going down to the pond or a river and chugging down a ton of water. It defeats the purpose of what your stomach acid is for. Part of the process of digestion, aside chewing thoroughly, is the gallbladder squeezing out the bile to emulsify the fats you ate. Then there are enzymes that come into play to digest such as protease which digests protein, lipase which digests fats, and theres insulin that will come into play at a low level if your only eating fats and proteins, leptin, and other hunger molecules. Then the most important of all the stomach acid, hydrochloric acid itself, this stuff is so potent that if your stomach were ruptured or punctured and the acid got out and spilled inside your body cavity, it would melt everything in its path. So the point being is if you mix that with another chemical such as h2o water, and anything other beverage and a large amount, then the acid cant properly break down the meats and fats you ate, nor can the bile properly emulsify the fats, so you end up with this undigested food particles which may not get absorbed because their to big.
The other medical doctor who is a Carnivore, Dr. Ken Berry explained that a person’s body (digestive system) absorbs most of the “meat” and a person will have no or very little bowel movement with no smelly gas.
There is article “fruits and vegetables are trying to kill you” BUT the point is hormesis and how they are good for you because they stress the human system making it stronger.
Give it a go yourself. Take time, a few weeks. The contrast you will experience will make your desire for a text book or publication, moot. Seriously, it is real. Skin is better, muscle tone is better, energy is steady, mind is clear as a bell.
@josephburns7561 thank you. I did. I have my N=1 experience already. It's not for me but to be able to share "hard facts", science with friends, family who don't rely on N=1 experience reports. I had botany at university, but it was mainly about toxins in wild plants. In plant breeding, we've been taught how toxins have been bred out of e.g. canola/rapeseed (erucic acid and glucosinolates) etc. And medical doctors and nutritionists have been telling us to eat more kale, and Brussel sprouts all of our lives...
@@dr.helgamiehlepag5888 - look up Dr Paul Saladino's books and web site. I'm against those veggies, not good for thyroid gland, and they have oxalates too. Fibre in body gets in the way too.
Well, there are fungus that only exist inside termite mounds, and sometimes they produce mushrooms. These fungi have been selected by the termites to be edible over millions of years, so wouldn't these mushrooms be pretty healthy?
@@yakzivz1104 But what about the lectins and oxalate? And the naturally occuring pesticides that cause inflammation in the body? It's a nightmare I tell ya. A NIGHTMARE!! 😵
@@justincase2281 Meat also causes inflammation and it also has a lot of carcinogens in it as well. Most of the meats that we eat, eat plants as well. The big difference between plants and meat is that plants can actually heal your body of all infections, viruses, and parasites. Meat literally cannot heal your body from anything. This doctor is a liar.
I'm sorry I don't comment more but your work is crazy different than what we've been told. I first heard you on One Radio Network and have been leaning Carnivore ever sense, as much as I can. The damned real good steaks though, are so expensive!! Thanks Anthony, much appreciated here in upside down world!! Well literally, if the earth is roumd, could that be another ...BEEP. Thanks.
Exactly. The best moderation of plants is not to eat them at all. They do not feed humans, they feed cancer. Cancer requires glucose, in large amounts, having a blood glucose over 110 might do it. I’m just fine keeping mine in the hypoglycemia range, with no ill effects I might add. And I have had my BG as low as 30, with no ill effects.
@@Technichian462I’m sure they’ve had deserts, sugar, and carbs. The point is like to make is that veggies were definitely not the reason they got cancer. Did the meat? Who knows what exactly it was.
@@Keef_Chief86 the sugar, feeds the cancer. Life causes cancer. All sources of glucose feeds it, and keeps it alive and thriving. Not eating plants starves cancer. Not eating any glucose starves cancer. All carbohydrates, regardless of source, is basically just eating glucose. Feeding cancer.
In general, I gwt what he is saying... but, about mushrooms, he's pretty far off base... The carcinogens are mostly due to fungi, especially saprophitic ( wood decomposers) being bio absorbers of carbon compounds ... Secondly, while it's true a few mushrooms will definitely kill you, people who can't guess eating an " angel of death " is a bad idea, really have no business remaining in the gene pool 😂 ... 3rdly, fungi, are a major player in our food and nutrition, and also, there would be no land plants, or animals without fungi.. a joke? Hardly... many of the world's most critical symbiotic n similar biology relations are involvkng fungi .. Glib falsehoods aside, fungi deserve better than this punch line treatment. Seriously... Lastly, there are several species of mushroom that are highly medicinal..... Fungi do indeed operate on a biochemical level.. some of this is poisons, some of it is more subtle.. Polyphores ( Maitake , hen of the woods and Turkey tail are all polphores , and medicinal... ) are basically NEVER dangerous.. a couple are disgusting.. most are not.. Finally, no forest or trees , ( 70% of trees anyways. ) can survive without fungi... Hug a fungi, not a tree... 😂
@@kpopandotherplaylists2518 he is not saying that the fungi family is not important, what he is saying is that you do not have to eat them for nutrition almost on a daily basis like we are told to.
It is pretty obvious really. I'm not a botanist but I figured it out years ago. I was veggie for most of my adult life, but still got fat and had a (small) heart attack, the only part if a plant that said plant wants you to eat is it's fruit so you can spread its seeds around. Now the only veg I eat are veggies that are really fruits -aubergine, courgette, beans etc. and small sprinkles of herbs for seasoning.
I know a woman who was diagnosed with cancer and given 3 mos. to live. Her Dr. told her she might try Turkey Tail mushroom. 3 months later she was cured and is still alive today.
Berries are alright, fruits that are not GMO are alright, non fruit parts of the plant are like medicines, but only certain ones, mushrooms are like fruits of fungus, non poisonous berries exist so do not poisonous mushrooms.
My grandmother is cool as a cucumber without any health conditions at 97 years of age eating rice , legumes fruits and veggies . Perhaps she handles toxins like a pro. The inability to handle toxins leads to weak people and carnivore diet 🤔. Being muscular alone is not a measure of health . My grandma handled all toxins( if any) like a champ . She has got some impressive strength indicators
There is something called processing . Such as soaking , fermenting, blanching and cooking which drastically resuces toxins . can someone eat thick Beef right after it is cut with all the blood without processing it in heat ? . Come on guys . Plain common sense .
Interesting, i’ve worked with seniors and their diets for decades now, and see a consistent pattern of optimal health and longevity. Everybody’s gonna freak out, but the heavy meat eaters are tiny, frail with missing hair and bad teeth. The few vegetarian‘s that I’ve looked after are usually assisted from surgery and not their lifestyle. They are strong and healthy with good hair and teeth overall? The oldest one was a veg and he had as much energy as me.
That isn't true. It's been proven to be a lie. Ken Berry did a video on this recently with an expert AND linked all the sources. Check it out so you don't sound so ignorant next time you comment. 😅
I don’t intend to eat vegetables until I myself have become one, when I’m in a nursing home and can’t tell the difference. As a child I instinctively hated vegetables; now I love them too much to kill and eat them.
All my grandmas lived until they were in their 90’s and ate plants and meat, balanced diet.. This guy may not get past 60! My thoughts Don’t listen to people who aren’t 90!
You ignore a very basic fact - the fruit and veggies that we eat today are NOTHING like the fruit and veggies your ancestors ate. Nothing you eat now is in it's original form, the antifungals and insecticides today are poison. Also Apeel is going to be a killer, thanks Bill Gates.
Majority of animals have a very simple diet, with hardly any variety, yet they have perfectly fine gut microbiome. The problem of gut health is because antibiotics, pesticides and antibacterial food, not muhhh fiber
How bad is coffee for us? I just started carnivore 4 days ago, but I have a coffee addiction lol. Meat, eggs and butter plus coffee(with butter, trying to justify lol)
Very very bad. Acidic toxic bean soup full of antinutrients, and the effect cafeïne has on hormones and sleep quality is horrific. Quit it, have 2 days of headache (as with ANY DRUG) and enjoy a happier and more energetic life. Been there
I've heard Dr Gundry say the more bitter the more better. I want to discover if in fact there is a certain way most humans should be eating to prevent disease and optimize vibrant health and longevity.
Plants create fruit for this reason. Fruit are your meats. Most of you on this carnivore diet are going to find out the hard way on your long term health. What feels good isn’t always good. I think a balance is good and eating intuitively.
Guys don’t listen to the internet our ancestors lived for many years by eating healthy vegetables and fruits, veggies and fruits have many nutritions were you can’t find anywhere else.
My question is - What about all the real studies about how healthy plants are and all the healing that happens when people go plant based?! I’m so confused and I’ve been in holistic nutrition for decades so I can only imagine how confused lay folks are 😂
What about all the data around the world that shows clearly the most healthiest people on this planet are mostly plant eaters. What is your data based on?
I'm doing my best to spread the word in Idaho. Meat, egg, and cheese are my staple daily nutrition. Feel great and will never go back to standard American crap food.
He said his diet is meat and water. I'll stick to my fruits, vegetables, legumes, grains, nuts, seed, herbs, spices and a bit of vegan junk food (muffin, pizza, etc) once in a while.
Talk to scientists who study the diet of early humans. Humans have been eating all sorts of plants since we began walking upright. Of course, some plants are toxic. A healthy human will have no problem eating a wide variety of vegetables and fruit. Of course, some are poisonous. Some have to be cooked. Potatoes, for example. But if you had to choose only one food to eat, the best choice would be potatoes.
@jaykaufman6339 During famine, there are people who survived on potatoes. I would never recommend that anyone eat just one food for long periods of time. There is always a price to pay in the long run.
@@SuperAngelic5 but you realize that potatoes do not have b12 and that those people who survived off of potatoes have nutrient deficiencies? It is not disputable it is a fact that fish or meat or eggs are the survival foods. Fat and protein are the only essentials and minerals and vitamins are present in those foods.

This guy is spot on ,less veg more meat fish and eggs ,gives you more energy ,better immune system ,helps lower body fat ,and helps your gut bacteria .
This guy is not spot on. He’s focused on mechanisms that are largely irrelevant to human physiology and ignoring the mountains of outcome data showing, contrary to his hypothesis, that plants are healthy for human consumption.
@@mfklevenmountains of gibberish, bastardized, bought and paid for "data" to push Big Agro and Big Pharma profits.
Check the vested interests behind the data, and have a look at the population health who follow the data
@@mfkleven I'd argue that humans have adapted to eat certain plants in small quantities, mostly relative to your ancestral environment. Sure some plants may have beneficial qualities, but I'd say on whole, small amount of mostly beneficial plants, decent amount of plants we can tolerate or are overall neutral up to a certain extent, and there MANY plants that are outright unhealthy in the amounts and ways humans consume them.
@@Ryshaad Also an interesting hypothesis. But human outcome studies consistently show the more plant-based your diet, the better your health outcomes. It’s pretty hard to argue otherwise without ignoring the evidence.
@@mfkleven When I stopped eating plants, my diabetes 2 disappeared, along with bloody acid reflux, arthritis, constipation and diahreah. Carnivore for life here.
Mr chaffe you are a great advocate of carnivore, your academia and practical knowledge is top notch. Soft spoken and gentle in nature.

My life before carnivore.
303.2 lbs. Psoriasis most of my life. Low energy. And yes, I had my testosterone levels checked out and the levels were normal. Achy joints and bad intestinal issues. Constantly constipated.
I ate fruits and vegetables on a regular basis.
8 months in carnivore...
210.4 lbs. Lots of every. No more constipation and gassing people around me.

Moderation in everything our ancestors only ate when they needed too! Fasting guarantees full digestion, absorption, and elimination of waste.
🎯
Drinking or eating poison in moderation isn't "everything" - people should understand that fact something can be done, doesn't mean it has to be done. Our ancestors were often dead before they hit 50s and you are acting like they were mystical god level beings.
My ancestors only ate plants when meat was unavailable. Plants are only meant to be eaten to keep us from starving in harsh environments. Plants do serve as medical treatments, but only in very low dosage. 😊
It really depends on the person. I did carnivore and had bad heartburn. Went back to adding veg and feel so much better.
Apparently you need trace minerals ( like Celtic salt?) potassium and magnesium if carnivore and you don't feel good...

Do you have any sources that plants we regularly consume contain carcinogens?
Do you have any names of those chemicals?
See official website of WHO they have a list of toxins in plants and full detail!
Google this: Natural toxins in food WHO
there are so many, just a basic google search and you can find heaps of books and scientific studies.
As I described in a previous post, all living organisms create hormones and compounds that can be carcinogenic in large quantities. These very same compounds can also be detrimental to health when not enough is being made as well. Estrogen is an example of chemical hormone that is necessary for human life, but also is classified as a carcinogen because excess can cause cancer. Low amounts can cause osteoporosis, heart disease, cardiovascular disease, infertility esc. There are many compounds in nature that have beneficial properties in low quantity’s, but can cause cancer in large quantities. Organisms require a balance, hence the saying “everything in moderation”. I indeed believe meat is a fantastic easily absorbed source of nutrition, however small quantities of different foods is ideal. The trick is find out what works for you. Everyone’s genetics and micro biota is different. Everyone’s ancestors depending on region consumed something different, therefore we are all uniquely adapted to eating certain foods.
Much appreciated ThankQ

What about fermented vegetables good for our gut microbes?
I get what Dr Chaffee said. Still there are people who have lived for centuries eating nearly only coconuts, and who were perfectly fine. People in Greece/Italy eat plenty of olives, and sure they also eat a lot of meat, but they are still pretty fine eating olives... I don't think that eating small amount of strawberries or blueberries whent it's the season has a massive bad impact on my average health. So I take all of that stuff seriously, but I think it can be balanced with other datas.
Well, they may be "perfectly fine" but they didn't thrive like the carnivorous tribes and places in our history. Dr. Chaffee actually has an awesome video explaining 2 tribes...one survived on mainly meat and one survived on mainly plants. The meat eaters had the best health.
@@Zenivore What do you mean they didn't thrive? They are still here and maybe that's what is meant to be.
To all you beautiful ppl.
The one question everyone on both sides of the isle need to ask is "What is in the food that we eat in the USA?"
The meat in tribal countries is not processed in any way so of course they survive on it, they have no dis-ease or weight issues. You can see videos all day long of tribes hunting and killing monkeys and wild boar, and preparing them for dinner, all with no seasoning. In some cases they eat meat raw. I doubt they will survive long on the meat from USA.
The environment and where you live has a huge impact on the quality of the food eat and the life you live.
Allegedly they are foods and chemicals here in the US that are banned in other countries? Why is that?
You could also apply the same argument for fruit and veg.
My parents grew up in the islands and ate both meat and veg. The had farms and grew their own food. Untouched by the the processing companies.
One of the reasons you have advocates for both sides is because we are all different.
Ultimately do what works for you, but don't dis all the other options because it didn't work for you.
@@ceejay1532he means over time. The reign ended. Also yea bodies are different. Different bodies = different resistances and tolerances. There’s an old saying in med school “The only difference between medicine and poison, is dosage.” So while yes, you may eat a veggie that is good for you, or fruit, and while you can tolerate it, it may drop someone else who will be allergic. Ain’t ever met someone allergic to meat though.
Both my grandmothers lived beyond 100 yrs and both ate abundant F and V. Meat was maybe one meal a day and smallish . Both had larger lunches and smaller dinner .

Ide love this guy to debate Dr Rhonda Patrick on this subject
What amazes me is that so many people have lived amazing and long lives eating the crap out of vegetables throughout time and now they're killing us. When you keep saying, "traces" of whatever poison veggies have, they must not be enough to even consider mentioning.
My grandfather was a farmer that lived off his huge garden. He died at 85 from prostate cancer and Grandma was tending that garden a week before she died at 98.
I'll take my chances, but great to know.
Where can i find a plant biology textbook that shows the carcinogens in vegetables?
As omnivores humans are adapted to eat a variety of foods. Some foods contains a certain amount of substances that are not good for your health. But as long as the amount you eat does not exceed your limit, it is safe to consume. When giraffes eat the leaves of a tree, the tree responds by producing more toxins. The giraffe is eating these toxic leaves, but once it has reached its limit, it goes away to find another tree. We are adapted to deal with many of these chemicals. We just have to make sure the intake of them does not exceed our upper limit on a daily basis.
Bitter substances are bad for you in high doses, but actually healthy in small doses.
Prehistoric humans ate everything they could find, but animals, mushrooms and plants.
@@Langkowski Got that. Thanks. I still want print reference material I can point people to.
@@Langkowskiwe're not omnivores though
@@bhok1971 You're not providing a single evidence to support your claim
@@TitanScream just because we eat all now, it doesnt mean we are omni. Bear in mind that pretty much all the fruits and veggies we see at the grocery store have been genetically modified and do not resemble how they were thousands and millions of years ago.
As for the teeth, it is actually the opposite, it shows we consume mainly meat.

I get rid off tennis elbow pain. My hands due my hard physical work with hammer had symptoms for carpal tunnel. All gone with intermitten fasten. 2 c main meal. Mainly steaks or other beef and fish and pork. Pain gone within 2 months. Enegy level increased a felt like 30 year old. Now Im 44. Guys in 20s and 30s are constantly tired. They on sugar drinks and other junk food.
I had similar symptoms. Combined with the right diet make sure you give your hands a rest.
What I want to understand is how does one then deal with parasites which can be acquired from meats? Are spices like cloves , cinnamon, turmeric and black pepper healthy?
I love eating meat. But. Can someone explain those people who heal on a plant, or juice method.
Am confuse so, I eat meat fats and vegetables, only the one that my palate will take.
I remember as a child, my mom gave me casava, taste bad, my palate refuse it immediately, now I know why, cyanide!!!.
Thats because if someone switches from a SAD diet to eating just plants or meat or both, healing still occurs, but that does not mean plants are not causing harm. Even if you think the plants you eat daily are not harming you, they are, and it will catch up to you eventually. The only thing not harmful is the meat and fat from ruminant animals and water, assuming your water is completely clean, free from deuterium and microplastics and such.
Some say it's because anyone coming from the crappy Standard Modern Diet (processed foods, junk foods) will start to heal if they eliminate all of that and start to eat real whole foods only.
But long term, those who go plant based may have to deal with nutrient deficiencies, as well as potential toxic overload. It depends on how careful they are to supplement for nutritional deficiencies, and how careful they are to avoid or limit toxic plants as well as pedticides, etc. This is my guess, anyway.
You just have to choose what gives you the most healing and what allows you to get stronger long term. Personally, I'd do carnivore or very customized ketovore (only eat a small amount of plants my body can deal with).
Cuz your cutting out the grains and processed foods, and not activating the randle cycle, but you get nutrient deficient without the meat and will pay the price sooner rather than later.
While I am just asking, can someone explain to me whether plants were that bad for Adam and Eve. I know that Noah after the great flood ate meat more because there were no enough plants immediately after the flood so they survived on meat. So, my belief is really about eating some selected plants, meat, fish, chicken, guinea fowl, eggs + intermittent fasting.
I think also that, our human system's response to whether plant based diet or Canivor diet is different. Dr. Talked about natural toxins in plants, which plants do not have natural toxins so we can concentrate on those plants + Canivor diet 🙏
Our SAD is already 80% plant based. It will take a very long time to convince the people to think otherwise. I have cut way, way back on eating plants and totally agree with Dr. Chaffee. Working on eliminating the last few over time. ( love my aparagus!)

She was ninety two.
Love this subject!
Dr.Chaffee i wish you could do a video on all the anti-nutrients and what they do in the body, also
talking about does for them too to where they would be more toxic and cause issues vs low exposure.
I know Sally Norton's book "Toxic Superfoods" and Judy Cho's Book "Carnivore Cure" talks about these things already,
but i would like to see a video done by you talking about these things more in-depth.
I think people really should know and understand what these plants, vegetables, fruits ect,. have and
stop scoffing at the idea that they cant harm you, we need an eye opener on the subject to explain
why and show somehow why such "foods" are not meant for human consumption.
Its like the mustard plant, i think theres 5+ vegetables grown from it which are all man made, and
"eat the rainbow" as they say though the rainbow all comes from 1 plant, ok, but this subject imo is not talked about
enough, people will still go eat a salad thinking its healthy.
Eat a salad with a steak and what happens? The proteins may not get absorbed or you may get reduced absorption,
things like that, the real issue is this lack of knowledge, but also that in our culture we like to mix and add everything
to our foods to make it taste great, its understandable, but we also need to know that adding ingredients, like spices,
or eating certain foods with other foods, may or have an adverser affect.
See what people dont get is, lets say you had something happen to you and you had to stay in a hospital for a little bit,
they would give you iv's of water, and some "medication" a chemical of some sort. So most people can accept
these chemicals as doing something for them whatever it may be, and they "trust" and accept this reality, yet
on the flip side when you eat something, your body is literally processing, converting what you ate into chemicals, and
these chemicals ... doi things, react to things, ect,. in your body.
It might be subtle based on the "amount" you ate, but again if you were in a hospital they are giving you a dose
of a certain "medication" a chemical to create a certain response, body does the same thing, except the dose
is the amount of whatever your eating. Lets bring this awareness to people because food is treated like food
im not saying to deny it but, come to an awareness that if you feel terrible that something your eating, in
whatever amount, daily maybe has a chemical response inside you, hence the term biochemistry.
Learn about what to eat, how to eat, when to eat, and what not to eat, its like drinking alot of water or any beverage
during your meal, your literally doing yourself a disfavor by diluting your food, your stomach acid cannot properly
break down and utilize the nutrients that is able to be acquired if you did not dilute your meal.
Drink before you eat, then sip during the meal, absorption and assimilation is the key.
I thought we were supposed to drink after we ate
@@anneiconex1473 You would be diluting what you just ate, then the stomach acids cant do what it supposed to do.
Drink alot before you eat, sip while you eat, sip after, you'll never see a wild animal after eating a big meal going down to the pond or a river and chugging down a ton of water.
It defeats the purpose of what your stomach acid is for. Part of the process of digestion, aside chewing thoroughly, is the gallbladder squeezing out the bile to emulsify the fats you ate.
Then there are enzymes that come into play to digest such as protease which digests protein, lipase which digests fats, and theres insulin that will come into play at a low level if your only eating fats and proteins, leptin, and other hunger molecules.
Then the most important of all the stomach acid, hydrochloric acid itself, this stuff is so potent that if your stomach were ruptured or punctured and the acid got out and spilled inside your body cavity, it would melt everything in its path.
So the point being is if you mix that with another chemical such as h2o water, and anything other beverage and a large amount, then the acid cant properly break down the meats and fats you ate, nor can the bile properly emulsify the fats, so you end up with this undigested food particles which may not get absorbed because their to big.
Eating carnivore has a great side effect. I have a bowel moment and there’s nothing to wipe. It’s awesome!😂
Good for covid 😂
The classic "ghost wipe".
The other medical doctor who is a Carnivore, Dr. Ken Berry explained that a person’s body (digestive system) absorbs most of the “meat” and a person will have no or very little bowel movement with no smelly gas.

Moderation is key in all things.
Exactly. The best moderation of plants is not to eat them at all. They do not feed humans, they feed cancer. Cancer requires glucose, in large amounts, having a blood glucose over 110 might do it. I’m just fine keeping mine in the hypoglycemia range, with no ill effects I might add. And I have had my BG as low as 30, with no ill effects.

Thank u Dr. Chaffee!
Dr Chaffee can you recommend a book for plant toxins..
In general, I gwt what he is saying... but, about mushrooms, he's pretty far off base...
The carcinogens are mostly due to fungi, especially saprophitic ( wood decomposers) being bio absorbers of carbon compounds ...
Secondly, while it's true a few mushrooms will definitely kill you, people who can't guess eating an " angel of death " is a bad idea, really have no business remaining in the gene pool 😂
...
3rdly, fungi, are a major player in our food and nutrition, and also, there would be no land plants, or animals without fungi.. a joke? Hardly... many of the world's most critical symbiotic n similar biology relations are involvkng fungi ..
Glib falsehoods aside, fungi deserve better than this punch line treatment. Seriously...
Lastly, there are several species of mushroom that are highly medicinal.....
Fungi do indeed operate on a biochemical level.. some of this is poisons, some of it is more subtle..
Polyphores ( Maitake , hen of the woods and Turkey tail are all polphores , and medicinal... ) are basically NEVER dangerous.. a couple are disgusting.. most are not..
Finally, no forest or trees , ( 70% of trees anyways. ) can survive without fungi...
Hug a fungi, not a tree... 😂
@@kpopandotherplaylists2518 he is not saying that the fungi family is not important, what he is saying is that you do not have to eat them for nutrition almost on a daily basis like we are told to.
It is pretty obvious really. I'm not a botanist but I figured it out years ago. I was veggie for most of my adult life, but still got fat and had a (small) heart attack, the only part if a plant that said plant wants you to eat is it's fruit so you can spread its seeds around. Now the only veg I eat are veggies that are really fruits -aubergine, courgette, beans etc. and small sprinkles of herbs for seasoning.
not vegan, just no animal products. vegetarian.
I know a woman who was diagnosed with cancer and given 3 mos. to live. Her Dr. told her she might try Turkey Tail mushroom. 3 months later she was cured and is still alive today.
Yes. It's in Essiac Tea. Which properly administered is safer than Chemo and/or Radiation. It kills cancers but not people. Google it.
Berries are alright, fruits that are not GMO are alright, non fruit parts of the plant are like medicines, but only certain ones, mushrooms are like fruits of fungus, non poisonous berries exist so do not poisonous mushrooms.

Interesting, i’ve worked with seniors and their diets for decades now, and see a consistent pattern of optimal health and longevity.

I don’t intend to eat vegetables until I myself have become one, when I’m in a nursing home and can’t tell the difference. As a child I instinctively hated vegetables; now I love them too much to kill and eat them.
I am carnivore and healthy
All my grandmas lived until they were in their 90’s and ate plants and meat, balanced diet..
This guy may not get past 60!
My thoughts
Don’t listen to people who aren’t 90!
You ignore a very basic fact - the fruit and veggies that we eat today are NOTHING like the fruit and veggies your ancestors ate. Nothing you eat now is in it's original form, the antifungals and insecticides today are poison. Also Apeel is going to be a killer, thanks Bill Gates.
Majority of animals have a very simple diet, with hardly any variety, yet they have perfectly fine gut microbiome. The problem of gut health is because antibiotics, pesticides and antibacterial food, not muhhh fiber
That's right, go to the other extreme
Lmaooo, smh !!
What about fruit
How bad is coffee for us? I just started carnivore 4 days ago, but I have a coffee addiction lol. Meat, eggs and butter plus coffee(with butter, trying to justify lol)
Very very bad. Acidic toxic bean soup full of antinutrients, and the effect cafeïne has on hormones and sleep quality is horrific.
Quit it, have 2 days of headache (as with ANY DRUG) and enjoy a happier and more energetic life.
Been there
What about Vegian
The movie "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes" makes a lot more sense now..... Who knew ?
How about Fruits 🍉?
Does anyone have access to a comprehensive list of the toxins in foods??
I keep watching carnivore diet videos. But my diet is still “sad”. :(
It takes guts to be different.
add in more eggs to start. Some fasting can help you kick the carb addiction over time.
Most people that turn to it are really sick and get well immediately.❤💪🔥be sure to read the comments..
Change must first occur within the mind...
How sad ?
All facts man earned a sub by me 👊🏻
And that makes us stronger...
Isn't that why you boil or pressure cook?
I'm carnivore but I'm weak for vanilla. How bad is vanilla?
Don't eat anything people
Right! Just the bugs says Klaus
I've heard Dr Gundry say the more bitter the more better. I want to discover if in fact there is a certain way most humans should be eating to prevent disease and optimize vibrant health and longevity.
Beer is bitter, so humans shouldn't drink beer either (including alcohol-free beers).
can a person who has gout and high cholesterol go on a carnivore diet?
This is odd. Why can't I save this video to a playlist?
Planted my Garden today.. guess I will till it up tomorrow..
I wouldn’t !!!
Okay but what about the mushrooms 🍄 that come from the cow poop 💩??? Would they be considered beef based ?? 😂
Nick Naylor would be proud of this guy!
What about avocados?
Plants create fruit for this reason. Fruit are your meats. Most of you on this carnivore diet are going to find out the hard way on your long term health. What feels good isn’t always good. I think a balance is good and eating intuitively.
I've just discovered you. Do you have a link to Bruce Ames study?
Ha that study still recommends fruits and vegetables, page 7
Thank God, my kids never liked vegetables, but I can’t just live on meat and eggs. I get sick of that and one week.
They might be trying but they are failing miserably.
Thats why all people are fat and get cancer at 60
This Doctor knows whatsup
What's the name of the Song?
What if you're blood type A though?
Guys don’t listen to the internet our ancestors lived for many years by eating healthy vegetables and fruits, veggies and fruits have many nutritions were you can’t find anywhere else.
My question is - What about all the real studies about how healthy plants are and all the healing that happens when people go plant based?! I’m so confused and I’ve been in holistic nutrition for decades so I can only imagine how confused lay folks are 😂
What about all the data around the world that shows clearly the most healthiest people on this planet are mostly plant eaters. What is your data based on?
I knew sprouts were poisonous ☠️ ever since I was a kid 😂
I'm doing my best to spread the word in Idaho. Meat, egg, and cheese are my staple daily nutrition. Feel great and will never go back to standard American crap food.
He said his diet is meat and water. I'll stick to my fruits, vegetables, legumes, grains, nuts, seed, herbs, spices and a bit of vegan junk food (muffin, pizza, etc) once in a while.
Let me see a picture of you without your shirt on and we’ll compare you to Dr. Chaffee
Talk to scientists who study the diet of early humans. Humans have been eating all sorts of plants since we began walking upright. Of course, some plants are toxic. A healthy human will have no problem eating a wide variety of vegetables and fruit. Of course, some are poisonous. Some have to be cooked. Potatoes, for example. But if you had to choose only one food to eat, the best choice would be potatoes.
But you would not get b12 from potatoes. So if you had to choose one food only it would be eggs, meat or fish.
Lets do a test. You eat only potatoes for a year and Ill eat only fatty red meat and see what happens.
@@underated17 potatoes are a good source of B-12
@jaykaufman6339 During famine, there are people who survived on potatoes. I would never recommend that anyone eat just one food for long periods of time. There is always a price to pay in the long run.
@@SuperAngelic5 but you realize that potatoes do not have b12 and that those people who survived off of potatoes have nutrient deficiencies? It is not disputable it is a fact that fish or meat or eggs are the survival foods. Fat and protein are the only essentials and minerals and vitamins are present in those foods.
Carnivore is basically a strict religion.
