This is the best video I have seen on the subject. Im a surfer / swimmer and have been through a rough adjustment phase from carbing up to full fat. I swim every morning and I usually burn out after about 3 or 4 days of practice in a row. This isn't happening anymore. It took a few weeks to dial in how much fat to eat and when.
My experience with salt was that at first I absolutely needed tons of salt. Even now, more than 8 months into a carnivore diet bacon tastes bland to me, like it has no salt in it. My first two sets of blood work on carnivore showed very low sodium, but high potassium. My magnesium has never been a problem. For months I would wake in the middle of the night with leg cramps and take a few pinches of salt to make them subside. My sodium levels are finally normal and I rarely wake with any kind of muscle cramps now. I no longer need to consume 3-5 teaspoons of salt a day in addition to the salt on my food, but I still heavily salt my food to keep my sodium levels in the mid range of normal. The simple fact is that insulin is what tells the body to hold onto salt when you are eating carbs. When you eliminate the carbs it takes a while for the kidneys to figure out how much salt to hold onto. For some people it's months, for others it's years. If you need salt eat it, drink it, lick it, whatever you have to do. But you will also need lots of water. Anyone who tries to tell you to drink less water just doesn't know what they are talking about. God save us from the guesses of "experts!" Know yourself!
The older you get.. the more pronounced the "cramping" issue may become.. bummer right? While I went 98% carnivore about a year back.. I still got leg cramps. so I now suppliment with Mag and Potassium and I salt my meat.. and I drink LMNT everyday.. 90 to 110 ounces of water/fluid everyday. This resolved the issue. My daily activity level is relatively high/intense..so lot so sweating. You have to find your balance with this.
From experience, I believe for optimal performance eating beef for nutrition and strength is ideal. And having lots of butter for energy is essential to perform better than anyone using glucose from carbs. But if anyone did wants to be carnivore and use carbs, you can always just eat dairy for carbs and still be carnivore. It seems some people forget you can stay carnivore and have all the carbs you want from dairy. If that's really what you want. Carbs make people get more hunger cravings, it's an inferior energy source vs ketone. Butter is ideal on carnivore for having tons of energy😇. I admit I was scared of fat at first on carnivore. But now I eat tons of butter daily. I realized it's ideal for energy, just like meat is ideal for nutrition. They both give nutrition and energy. But fat is more for energy, and meat is more for nutrition. For ideal health you would essential just have animal fat and meat, water and maybe some salt/minerals daily. It is that simple😅. Oh yeah and plenty of sleep, sunlight and get some exercise, avoid stress and avoid toxins. 😄 Peace & Love~💗 I wish you the best
@@Jtheodorex 🤗💗Yes, you are on the right track. My hobby is learning about ideal health, especially for anti aging/longevity. Which also happens to be anti-disease/optimal health.

I started learning slowly about toxins in certain plants and plants to avoid eating before learning about carnivore. It was a natural progression from learning.

But eating meat and animal fat is the most biologically harmonious food to nourish and fuel our human bodies. Everything else fights our body from the inside out when we consume it😅.
@@ShannonDollDD There nothing wrong with butter and other animal fats. If you want athletic performance and health. Eat the fat and throw away the meat. That said. You cannot perform mentally or physically properly without carbs.
@@ShannonDollDD If you did the studies,then why the hell are you lying about it. PLEASE. JUST 1 PIECE OF EVIDENCE. JUST 1. No lies. We both know that evidence doesn't exist!!!!!!!!!!!!
Never too late. Started 3 years ago at 59. Went carnivore and started working out religiously. Lost 52 pounds then started working out. I'm still short, bald and ugly but have the body of a Greek God
RAW milk before training and I go places. Then after one big ribeye with cow tail fat. That’s it, sometimes I will star the day with raw milk and eggs.
The other day I did a 31.5 mi. / 50.7 km mountain bike ride fasted. I rode for 3.5 hours and burned roughly 1800 calories. The day before I only ate one moderate meal for dinner. Pre ride ketones were 0.8 mmol/L, glucose was 106 mg/dl. Post ride ketones 1.3 mmol/L, glucose 83 mg/dl. 2.5 hrs later still fasted ketones were 4.1 mmol/L, glucose 98 mg/dl. I went carb free the last week of June and have been Ketovore since. I’m not a super athlete, just a guy that likes to ride bikes.
YUP.. all true.. you will find you feel pretty incredible when you go this route. I'm an avid road cyclist.. and I'll do 3 to 4 rides per week of 35 to 40 miles.. so..I can atest to how much better you feel when you're fueld by meat.
The electrolyte issue is odd. At the beginning I got cramps and electrolytes really helped. But a few months in the electrolytes started running through me so I stopped, but no cramps. Now I think bacon is too salty, don't salt meat before cooking, and occasionally even crave my steak without salt on it. Still no cramps. So something happened in the beginning with me that eventually corrected, at least it appears that way.
Simple adaptation that everyone goes through, first you lose 2 to 3 liters of water in first week or two due to glycogen not being there to hold it and a lot of electrolytes and salt go with it, hence the cramps, but once this loss is done, you need less and less salt and electrolytes as you get adapted.
@@zeljkothegreekserb Interesting, I'm sure it has something to do with it. My thought was with the absence of plant toxins to deal with the body goes into "hyper cleaning and restoration mode" requiring more mineral inputs.
@@NostalgicAtmosphere headache, and extreme drowsiness.( I could literally fall asleep when standing). Good news is, it only take 3 days and it will be over with 👍
Great video! Another reason people get cramps on carnivore is Vitamin D supplementation. I was taking 5000 to 10000 IUs a day because it's supposed to be uncontroversially good for you..... well it turns out that your body has to use a TON of Magnesium to process high doses of Vitamin D like that, which then causes cramps that everyone blames on the diet. If you're getting leg cramps on Carnivore do yourself a favor and stop taking Vitamin D for a few weeks, and like Dr Chaffee said, drink a bit more water, and see what happens.
Yeah I'm about three months into carnivore and I only had one cramp episode in the first month. I have a super physical job and work out most days off... I salt my meat and if I sweat allot, I'll have an electrolyte drink or just opt for an extra salty meal like a steak with a side of bacon
@@heavymetal3256this is interesting. I am low vitamin D and have been for years. Came off the rx type once a week. Went to 5000 IU a day. Still low. Now at 10K IU a day. D levels still not optimal. But for sure have had cramps off and on for a year since starting.
I get that horrible arythmias and stabbing chest pain that he mentioned when I do carnivore. It actually landed me in the ER with suspected heart attack from electrolyte imbalances. I still have an abnormal EKG now.😢
eating carbs is like running cheap ethanol gas in your car , we need to eat top tier meat for better milage and power for our bodies to keep our engines running smooth for longer .
Caffeine can actually help fatty acid metabolism so its not all bad. L Carnitine often supplemented in low carb or keto or carnivore athletes for added fatburn/metabolism. Also an extra 2g of Taurine can help say a marathon. Cheers 🎉
If you’re not getting the totality of your circadian biology in synchronicity with nature, macronutrients take a seat in the back of a long vehicle. Even still, animal fats and a couple of monounsaturated fats are the superior energy fuel. For everyone. 🖖🏽
Hiatal Hernia, i cant be on carnivore, i just cant. What should i do? I cant eats fats at all with hiatal hernia, living on high protein and low fat without carbs will end with rabbit starvations.
Except top athletes are not following Keto. Every single athlete would be following a similar diet of keto if there was even a small boost in performance. Triathletes are not powering up with steak in the middle of races.

Lol! There is insane money in professional sport and being at the top. There are marginal gains in utilising ketones in professional sport and professional cyclist are already doing this, but in now way is it replacing carbohydrates which is still the primary fuel that drives performance hence profits for professional sport. If ketogenic athletes perform better and could win the Tour De France then they would be doing this as it translates directly to more profit.
Exogenous ketone supplementation pretty much ends the debate. Carb fueled athletes can take them and stack energy substrates. A fat adapted athlete cannot take glucose.
Muhammad Ali often ate only a steak on the day of a fight. Until later in his career when he surrounded himself with more bizarre people who started having him eat salads and take all kinds of supplements, and then he wound up with Parkinson's.
What sort of carnivore revisionist history is this? I can find no evidence of this claim being true, even from his daughter's accounting, and can only find evidence he ate a high carb high protein diet.
Why do presenters on programmes try to make this about themselves. we don't care what you eat and how many coffees you have. or how many times you fart
Slow oxidizer. Slow oxidizers have a lower Na/K (sodium to potassium) ratio and a higher Ca/Mg (calcium to magnesium) ratio, which affects their metabolism. A keto diet with a higher protein or fat content may slow down liver functions and oxidation rates further. Don't expect Chaffee or other carnies to give you a clue. All they know is up the fat.
@@jaroslawprokop6943 well, for me going to a fat to protein ratio of 2:1 solved all of my problems, the thing is that I also use supplements (magnesium and a good quality multivitamin-mineral) and add some organ meats here and there. Btw, how long have u been on carnivore and do you have any symptoms correlated with those levels? poor sleep for instance
@PaulB_864 I hope I am mistaken. But since neither of us are GOD we can conclude it is definitely a possibility his diet played a significant cause of his stroke. Lets keep factual 6lbs of steak per day preparing for contests.
@PaulB_864 6lbs of anything will sooner or later affect your health... I know people go full tilt carni cult but don't be a sheep. Be the fish that spots the hook... OPEN your EYES!
There is zero evidence to suggest a keto athlete is better than a carb fueled athlete, but a lot of evidence and observation to suggest the opposite. At low intensity long time domain events (ultras), keto may actually be better, but now you are talking such an incredibly small percent of athletes. Im open to the possibility that long term studies in the future (which would be very difficult to design and would be very expensive) may one day show no difference. But i doubt it.
🛑 *Researchers from Saint Louis University tested the anaerobic exercise performance of 16 men and women following either a low-carbohydrate ketogenic diet or a high-carbohydrate diet for four days.* People on the ketogenic diet performed more poorly at anaerobic exercise tasks than those eating more carbs. 🛑
What was their definition of low carb? Often times these experiments are run with ridiculous amounts of carbs that are nowhere near what is necessary to generate ketones. Also, if one is not fat-adapted already, it's going to take more than 4 days to get there.
They had 4 days to adapt. That's nothing. Fat adaptation can take anywhere from 3 to 6 months. Look into prof Tim Noakes works, he had a similar but more detailed study where adaptation period was 6 weeks and keto was much more favorable there.
@@Ge1Ri4 This I definitely agree with you here, it couldn't be 100% accurate in 4 days. If it were over the course of 2-3 months sure. But as it stands I do not know of any Olympic or top tier athlete who removed all carbs from their regimen.
@@R-sn1ty- fat adapted mean you’re burning fat for fuel, which doesn’t take 6 months, but to actually be keto adapted and to build the metabolic machinery to efficiently and effectively burn fat in the way that’s needed for athletic endeavors can definitely take months and even a year. Mark Sisson, Dr. Tim Noakes, and Jeff Volek talk about this.
Nope. Very few athletes can perform optimally on Ketones. 99% of athletes don't. What does that tell you? As if pro athletes don't want to get on Carnivore and outperform their peers and make an extra 10 million a year? As if Olympic athletes don't want to get on Carnivore and earn gold medals? As if Athletes at every level are all so stupid that nobody ever figured out that if they did Carnivore, they would perform better? This is the kind of video where proponents get caught up in their bubble and start fantasizing that it's the cure for everything and the sheeple hop on board rather than using their common sense.
99% of athletes will never get fat adapted. It’s something carb eaters struggle to comprehend. And you’ll never try it because sugar and carbs are so addictive. 🤷♂️I like the advantage-please don’t 😂
@PaulB_864 I'm fat adapted and haven't eaten carbs or sugar in 9 months. On a strict lion diet. For as long as I've been out of shape eating crap doing drugs and smoking I've been able to get into sprinting and quite literally able to run longer and harder then in my high school years as an athletic type. This is why I already know what a fat adapted athlete is capable of. Most carb addicted ppl don't have the mental strength to get through that keto flu phase. And this is why I said no one cares what you eat cause you'll still eat carbs and shit at the end of the day. Really it comes down to you need to be mentally prepared and want to give up carbs and sugar. If you're not at all ready there's really no need to be commenting on a topic they know nothing about cause they don't even have the will or strength to actually try it for themselves for a period of time. 30 days 60 days or 90 days. I'll root for them if they want to try it but to comment on a video like their are some wanna be nutritionist is hilariously annoying. Hell must nutritionist actually don't know shit about nutrition.

Exogenous ketone supplementation pretty much ends the debate. Carb fueled athletes can take them and stack energy substrates. A fat adapted athlete cannot take glucose.
@@mwbeck Yes.
dude Anthony your arms are huge
Carnivore Mr. Olympia anywhere? Carnivore world champion anything anywhere? Any? Where?
Shut up clown
Muhammad Ali often ate only a steak on the day of a fight. Until later in his career when he surrounded himself with more bizarre people who started having him eat salads and take all kinds of supplements, and then he wound up with Parkinson's.
What sort of carnivore revisionist history is this? I can find no evidence of this claim being true, even from his daughter's accounting, and can only find evidence he ate a high carb high protein diet.
Statins cause Parkinson’s.
Ali got hit in the head alot which likely had more to do with his health issue than eating salad.
Why do presenters on programmes try to make this about themselves. we don't care what you eat and how many coffees you have. or how many times you fart
Any ideas why keto ruined my hormones? T went down, cortisol went up, thyroid got ruined. Any clues?
Not enough fat? Too much protein? Both?
@@bastianfuentes8335 Nah I was downing 200gr of fat, and about 120-150grs of meat and eggs protein, I am 160 pounds.
Slow oxidizer. Slow oxidizers have a lower Na/K (sodium to potassium) ratio and a higher Ca/Mg (calcium to magnesium) ratio, which affects their metabolism. A keto diet with a higher protein or fat content may slow down liver functions and oxidation rates further. Don't expect Chaffee or other carnies to give you a clue. All they know is up the fat.
@@firelight-vitality interesting, can you suggest some research on it?
@@jaroslawprokop6943 well, for me going to a fat to protein ratio of 2:1 solved all of my problems, the thing is that I also use supplements (magnesium and a good quality multivitamin-mineral) and add some organ meats here and there. Btw, how long have u been on carnivore and do you have any symptoms correlated with those levels? poor sleep for instance
🤔🤔 *Serge Nubret a known steroid using bodybuilder died at age 72 due to a stroke. *
@PaulB_864 I hope I am mistaken. But since neither of us are GOD we can conclude it is definitely a possibility his diet played a significant cause of his stroke. Lets keep factual 6lbs of steak per day preparing for contests.
Serge was a carb eater and age 72 is a pretty normal age to die. By the way Serge had a 20 inch (50cm) arm at age 70
@PaulB_864serge ate lots of carbs, he was not a keto guy at all
@PaulB_864 ja very true and strokes at age 72 are normal anyway. My grandparents dont even reached age 70
@PaulB_864 6lbs of anything will sooner or later affect your health... I know people go full tilt carni cult but don't be a sheep. Be the fish that spots the hook... OPEN your EYES!
There is zero evidence to suggest a keto athlete is better than a carb fueled athlete, but a lot of evidence and observation to suggest the opposite. At low intensity long time domain events (ultras), keto may actually be better, but now you are talking such an incredibly small percent of athletes.
Im open to the possibility that long term studies in the future (which would be very difficult to design and would be very expensive) may one day show no difference. But i doubt it.
They are eating the Cats, they are eating the dogs. The people who went there.
that’s bad carnivore 😂
Watch Kenyans diet . Whot these runners eat.
steak AND Potato’s
🛑 *Researchers from Saint Louis University tested the anaerobic exercise performance of 16 men and women following either a low-carbohydrate ketogenic diet or a high-carbohydrate diet for four days.* People on the ketogenic diet performed more poorly at anaerobic exercise tasks than those eating more carbs. 🛑
What was their definition of low carb? Often times these experiments are run with ridiculous amounts of carbs that are nowhere near what is necessary to generate ketones. Also, if one is not fat-adapted already, it's going to take more than 4 days to get there.
They had 4 days to adapt. That's nothing. Fat adaptation can take anywhere from 3 to 6 months. Look into prof Tim Noakes works, he had a similar but more detailed study where adaptation period was 6 weeks and keto was much more favorable there.
@@ironymaiden10896 months? that's gotta be BS
@@Ge1Ri4 This I definitely agree with you here, it couldn't be 100% accurate in 4 days. If it were over the course of 2-3 months sure. But as it stands I do not know of any Olympic or top tier athlete who removed all carbs from their regimen.
@@R-sn1ty- fat adapted mean you’re burning fat for fuel, which doesn’t take 6 months, but to actually be keto adapted and to build the metabolic machinery to efficiently and effectively burn fat in the way that’s needed for athletic endeavors can definitely take months and even a year. Mark Sisson, Dr. Tim Noakes, and Jeff Volek talk about this.
Nope. Very few athletes can perform optimally on Ketones. 99% of athletes don't. What does that tell you?
As if pro athletes don't want to get on Carnivore and outperform their peers and make an extra 10 million a year? As if Olympic athletes don't want to get on Carnivore and earn gold medals? As if Athletes at every level are all so stupid that nobody ever figured out that if they did Carnivore, they would perform better?
This is the kind of video where proponents get caught up in their bubble and start fantasizing that it's the cure for everything and the sheeple hop on board rather than using their common sense.
👊🏼 Boom! Right there.
That’s not what the evidence shows., though. Once the body is fully fat adapted. Not in your first week obviously.
That tells me you will still eat carbs. At the end of the day eat what you want no one cares.
99% of athletes will never get fat adapted. It’s something carb eaters struggle to comprehend. And you’ll never try it because sugar and carbs are so addictive. 🤷♂️I like the advantage-please don’t 😂
@PaulB_864 I'm fat adapted and haven't eaten carbs or sugar in 9 months. On a strict lion diet. For as long as I've been out of shape eating crap doing drugs and smoking I've been able to get into sprinting and quite literally able to run longer and harder then in my high school years as an athletic type. This is why I already know what a fat adapted athlete is capable of. Most carb addicted ppl don't have the mental strength to get through that keto flu phase. And this is why I said no one cares what you eat cause you'll still eat carbs and shit at the end of the day. Really it comes down to you need to be mentally prepared and want to give up carbs and sugar. If you're not at all ready there's really no need to be commenting on a topic they know nothing about cause they don't even have the will or strength to actually try it for themselves for a period of time. 30 days 60 days or 90 days. I'll root for them if they want to try it but to comment on a video like their are some wanna be nutritionist is hilariously annoying. Hell must nutritionist actually don't know shit about nutrition.
