Dwight Johnson I have been following a ketogenic diet ever since I had an A1c done in the mid-90's. I guess it's been about 20 years. I got my A1c down around 4 and never looked back.
Thanks for this. I’ve been on keto for 7 months and enjoy fresh full fat cream from our local cheese factory here in the Swiss alps. I enjoy approximately 5 black teas with a generous splash of this during the day. Wards off hunger and is very satisfying. However, I suspect it could be the cause of not seeing any loss of inches on this diet yet. So I have stopped all cream for 2 weeks to see if it makes a difference. The reason is until I turned 15 i was allergic to all dairy because it caused my chronic asthma. After two weeks still nothing is moving ... my question is do you see a link between an allergy as I was young and problems tolerating it in keto now (im 41). Thanks for your consideration.
I'm from Holland and I've been raised on fat milk, cheese, cream and butter.. still do. Now I use organic .. I'm healthy and not overweight .. never been. I am now 72 years young and dancing .. 😉👌
In Pennsylvania USA we are lucky to have raw milk for sale. Full fat and it’s not white it’s got an orange tinge. That’s because the cows eat grass only. Last year I started making my own cheese from raw milk. Love it
Everyone who ever lived in a free range farm or nearby, knows that whole these videos on dairy products are seen with the eye of some people under hysteria. There is a problem with lots of dairy farms within USA... dairy injected with growth hormones and processed foods used to feed dairy animals which are exposing human health to a lot of risks. Some signs of it tried to spread in Europe too, but hopefully we will keep resisting to it, which i wish USA does it too. Free range and farm products that are not treated with DNA engineering methods are healthy and are the last hope people have to live a healthy life in harmony with the nature's rhythm and without need to run on daily supplements to cover food deficiencies.
@@kicknadeadcat I'm from PA and that's one of the things I miss MOST! I'm currently in ND and they think raw milk will kill you. You can only buy raw milk if you have a cow share or for your pets from some farmers directly. Its garbage.
Fat will make you fat if you are getting all your energy needs from carbs. With all the carbs the body will burn the carbs and store the fat for future use.
@@officesjctv4007 you have fatty liver from eating too much sugar and storing it in your liver. It's not from eating too much fat. Your liver stores glycogen for energy which is sugar too much and you get fatty liver inflamed
I'm feeling better. My knees stopped hurting. Finally I'm 10 days in and I can get up on my own without crying in my sleep at night. God Bless you Dr. Berry..
Dinglehopper Day Dreamer that was my first thought! I've been on a diet since I was a kid, I've also been fat since I was a kid. It's all starting to make sense 🤔
I sort of understood the insulin response thing but never made the connection to milk. Its both funny and sad, my niece's pediatrician told my sister that my niece wasnt gaining weight as fast as they thought they should.... My sister and her husband drink 1% milk and she could stand to lose a few pounds while he is, unfortunately rather obese. They are giving my nieces whole milk so they will gain weight....oops
I know right? EVERYTHING we've been told to do has been the exact opposite of what keto doctors are saying - almost like our American diet is designed to kill us or make us sick enough to enrich Big Fucking Pharma and Big Agribusiness/Big Food. Disgusting. SMH.
When I was a kid, "blue milk," which is now sold as "skim milk" was a waste product of milk production that was used as pig feed to boost fat before slaughter (otherwise, it was sprayed on the fields as fertilizer; milkfed pumpkins were common). When I see blue caps on milk in people's buggies at the market, that's all I think of: "pig feed." Which, by the by, is just pure sugar.
Wow! This is the first time in 64 years I have heard this. I have switched completely to heavy whipping cream, half and half and almond milk only. I have never liked or drank skim milk. Its amazing what I am learning late in life. Keep it coming. I am a sponge at this point.
You may want to switch from almond milk to coconut milk. Almond milk is full of oxalates, phytic acid, and Omega 6. It's really not great for your health.
Started 4 months ago with Keto, coming off of 6 months of a vegan plan. I had lost a few lbs but needed to lose almost 50 to be accepted for knee replacement surgery. I hit a wall with Keto - almost not losing any weight no matter how religious I was about adhering to that diet. So decided to research intermittent fasting with Keto. Bought the best scientific based book, studied the science behind fasting, and watched Dr. Berry's You Tube videos. Since I was already off sugar and carbs of any kind - I had no problem physically adjusting to 16 to 24 hour fasts twice a week. I also do aqua fit classes 3 times a week. I am now almost at the required weight for surgery. After the surgery, I need to drop another 50 lbs to get to a healthy goal weight. I have also been able to stop my asthma meds, and I have lose about 2 lbs a week consistently. I sleep much better, my skin is healthier, my big belly is half the size it was when I started - I can actually bend over all the way to the floor now. I am 74 years old.
Hi Sylvia, you might want to look into the Carnivore diet and Dr. Shawn Baker in particular. He’s an orthopedic surgeon who used to perform many joint replacement surgeries. In his,prior orthopedics medical practice he helped many people avoid joint replacement, even with “bone on bone” joint damage, by following a Carnivore diet and eliminating inflammatory foods that were causing the joint damage.
I have been drinking heavy cream in my coffee for years- and getting lots of flack about it ! Now I know I was right all along! thanks for confirming that doc! lol
I too have always used cream in coffee since learning what is in that powdered stuff. It is the only taste I like for coffee now. If I don't have cream, I skip the java
Proper quality raw milk is the healthier choice by far, per results with ones health / per ones body integrity, compared to the more insidious congestive effects of pasteurized and especially when also homogenized although some beneficial nourishment still occurs.
@@CobCeo the powdered stuff is literally the reason a guy at my work won't drink the coffee. He then spends the night drinking 2 full sugar monsters and 2 cans on coke. Followed by eating cakes etc full of crap 😅
I spent a lot of summers on my grandparents dairy farm. We used to drink raw, whole, unpasteurized milk. We were a chocolate-loving family, so my uncle, who ran the farm and the milk route, would drink an entire quart of raw chocolate milk on a break. He is now 93. My grandmother churned our delicious butter!
I think most negative effects of milk people experience come from the processing of industrial milk. There is actually no difference between no-fat, low-fat, semi-fat or full-fat UHT milk. All are made from mixing processed milk fat & protein powders with water. Then they add worse quality corn syrup sugar to those that they call "lactose-free", or add different vitamins or omega-3's etc to those that they call "enhanced". It is 100% laboratory stuff. Not to forget all the chemicals that makes sure it doesn't go bad fast. All the antibiotics which they add to the original milk sources since they receive milk from tens of thousands of cows and they cannot ensure they are all fully healthy and not sick. If you have access to raw milk from a single cow (or few cows max) which you personally know is healthy, that is in my opinion one of the best sources of nutrition. No other food beats it.
Finally a doctor that talks sense !! I wish I could find one in the Uk ! I’ve been keto for 18 months , eating 300 g of fat a day and have gone down to 8% body fat !!
Actually I did go to a high fat diet for a few months. Including a stick o butter a day. And almost no veggies. What I got eventually was a very itchy skin with "Prurigo Nodularis" which dermatologist didn't really know how to fix other than topic steroidal creams which turned me into a total greaseball. Was it the high fat that did it to me? IDK but I quit all fats & drank huge veggie juices. After several months. All symptoms went into remission. Therefore vif you're feeling good with what you're doing I'm not gonna to U to stop but different people have different experiences
I was drinking a lot of milk back in the days and didn't realize I had milk intolerance for my whole life ! I was treated with a lot of medicine to heal my stomach and gut. But all I had to do is stop drinking milk !
I’m just starting and I can see a huge change on water retention on my body, I am diabetic and I am on dialysis 3 times per week, 4 hours a day. Thanks so much Doctor for your advices and recommendations on dieting.
Here's something that people should think about when drinking skim milk. When I was growing up we had one cow on our farm just for the house, making butter, ice cream, cottage cheese and whole milk, but we always gave the skim milk to the pigs we were raising and they would gain so much faster drinking the skim milk that we'd sell those hogs months before the other hogs that were just raised on grain, the skim milk is fattening with a lot of sugar, that's why we gave it to the pigs, to get them to market faster.
As I said above, a cup of skim has 13g of sugar, whole has 11g. Which doesnt seem like much difference. And the calories for skim are 80 vs. 150 for whole.
Dr. Berry I so happy to have you as my guardian Doctor! My health is bad I’m trying to get it back on track. I have morphs and I’m just about as allergic to every type of dairy, meats, spices, and I know for sure I’m allergic to sugar anything that is sweetened with sugar or even honey I cough up a lot of phlegm after I eat or drink. I notice that if I eat anything salty it also makes me cough so bad that I break the vessels in my eyes. I started the keto diet yesterday and I have cough very little. I hope to get better. Thank you for sharing all your healthy advice.
Sorry, I do not believe that for one second--did you move somewhere at about the same time? God has not arranged for healing thru something like cows milk that is not made for human use. Something is not right here... There are no health benefits in drinking raw, un-homongenized milk--only a lot of high risk.
@@davidchad77 No way, man, that's false science--that will cause illnesses. A Duke university study reveals the cows milk causes a myriad of diseases. Satan will work with that, the Bible reveals it is he that causes all diseases. That means he can remove them for purposes of deception. I'm sure that's what's going on with this Price Foundation.
@@stevebilliter Raw milk has the enzymes to break down lactose while all the milk in the store has been processed thus losing all the necessary enzymes. Without the enzymes, it is in no way beneficial to a human's body. Stop the god talk and speak science. This is what this channel is about.
Morning, I’ve started everything you have recommended, I’ve lost over 1kg in two weeks, I sleep like a baby , I’m more alert, happy and no way could I imagine eating crap again, no sugar no bread nothing just everything you mention, il check back in in a couple more weeks but thank you !! Chris 🇬🇧
@@LordStanley94 I got kefir grains (not an actual grain, but that is what they call them.) It looks like a tiny cauliflower. I put the grains in a quart canning jar, pour in whole fat milk cover the jar to keep bugs etc out and depending on the temperature wait a day or two. The longer you wait the more of the lactose is used up. I then chill it in the fridge. Then I pour the contents of the jar into a large glass and use a slotted spoon to fish out the kefir grains. The grains are alive and will get bigger and multiply over time. The kefir has a similar taste to yoghurt but in a drinkable form. I bought my grains from Ebay.
Before I went low carb/keto 3 weeks ago, I was not only addicted to sugar, but top on my list was CHOCOLATE MILK!! Love your info and suggestions doc!! 💕
That explains some things in my life. My mother gave me "brown" milk because I couldn't keep the cow's milk. So I never drank milk. In my teen years I ate cheeses because my father was a deli lover (yes salamis but also caviar and stuff). He could dare me to anything (think octopus eyes...). I always had a good muscular body, weighing less than 100 lb even after 3 pregnancies. Mostly because I was doing competitive sports. Things started to go bad years later when I had a terrible accident. The surgeon gave me pills that made me eat 4 times a day (I was so hungry). My GP changed them after a few months but it was too late. So I went on a diet (IP lost 62 lb.) and had to use skim in my coffee but no cheese. Bad reaction all the time (eczema mostly, to the point I couldn't bend my fingers). I went on Dr. Poon (lost 10 lb) w/skim again and a bit of skinny cheeses. Flares of eczema on my whole body. I'm on Keto now, eat a lot of cheese and cream and no eczema or hardly. Love most of your videos, Nicole
I agree! My problem is cheese is addictive for me. Love grass fed extra sharp cheddar. When I buy it. I eat the whole package that day and crave more for days. I do better sticking to steak, eggs, butter and bacon.
Thanks so much! I was worried about my extra sharp cheese and Heavy whipped cream in my coffee. Just started. Have tried Keto. Close fit, I loved the lack of cravings after low carbs, but I am one of those people that cannot even get into ketosis unless it is almost 0 carbs. I am just now hitting Keto flu with only coffee, cream, and meat for the last few days. My A1C a year ago was 12. I have been working on lowering it since. BP is better. But still feeling like crap so I went full Carnivore. Not even eating my pistachios. My steak sauce is salt and pepper and sesame oil. I am going to get healthy. The thing that gets me the most is how much less I am hurting from osteo arthritis and fibromyalgia even after only 2 days. I remember that too. Yeah I am going to make this work.
All you need on your steak is salt - the sesame oil is inflammatory, duck fat is much better, healthy and not inflammatory. Good luck on your journey to being pain free and healthy
Thanks for the tips. I’m absolutely floored! Beginning to incorporate a little keto in my diet. Started by drastically cutting sugar and carbs. The weight has come down and my joints are hurting less.👍 Rock on!
@@GilmerJohn there's actually a heart surgeon who's been doing the rounds on UA-cam promoting high fat. I forget his name but you'll find him easily enough
I use about six ounces of whole milk (warmed) to make me sleepy (right at bedtime). In these tense times, it has really helped. Passing this along because some may not know about this trick to provide more typtophan by warming the milk. It works! (Psychiatrist friend suggested this. He said add a little honey too, but I do not because of diabetes.)
I am so glad that I wandered on to your channel, Dr. Berry! I started Keto in March 2018, but not confidently because I didn’t know that doing my best wasn’t good enough.I did lose about 25 lbs, but then my 93-yr-old mother -in-law moved in with us in July. Gradually Keto went out the window because everything has revolved around her and keeping her happy (and hopefully pleasant). I gained back the weight and feel so ill (also diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis in 2012). We announced to her on Sunday that we would continue to eat with her but we were no longer going to eat the Sam way she eats. It involved fireworks and tears and drama, but we (my spouse and I) are holding firm to take care of ourselves. The videos I’ve seen so far are very informational and encouraging. Thank you for doing this! Happy Holidays! We just ate Wheat Belly focaccia bread with cream cheese, capers, red onions and smoked salmon for Christmas breakfast.yes, we say with my MIL while she ate her instant oatmeal, cereal bar and black coffee. (No, we can’t change her. She’s 93 and it’s her way or the highway.) Thank you again.❤️🎁🎄
@@gwenbuchanan1 93 years ago food was very different, she most likely ate what we would call a Whole Foods Diet until she was an adult, with sugar foods as a festival/holiday treat. So, a conservative guess would be she has only been eating crap foods for about 50 years. We can't compare the health of one generation to that of the next without taking their food timeline into account. Best of luck with your MIL. My dad and my husband's parents are all aware of keto and follow (or not) some version of it. I don't think my grandparents would have ever changed the way they eat if it weren't because food was killing them, and even then my grandmother's both strongly resisted the change.
What about cottage cheese and cream cheese? What you just taught me is exactly the opposite of all the information I got from the classes and nutritionists after being diagnosed with diabetes...I have been doing everything incorrectly. Glad I found you...wish I had found you sooner. I have started the process, though, so thank you for ALL your advice.
I’ve been on Keto for 18months, and I adapted very quick without keto flu. I’ve previously had Prostate cancer in 2015, now my PSA is down to 0.13. Bladder cancer came along and operated on. My immune system is flying now, although I still having immunotherapy, camera probes show no inflammation. I don’t drink copious quantities of milk anymore, but I still have the heavy creams, and cheese. Regarding the proteins in milk; A1 protein is most found in normal milk, which people have a problem with, like here in the UK. Try A2 protein found in Jersey and Guernsey cows. It’s far better for the body to digest, but the creams, cheeses, and butter are bloody gorgeous. Best regards...Steve
Thank you for this video. It makes so much sense and probably explains a lot about my health issues as a teen. I was brought up to believe that milk was THE food source and we would drink mugs of it - at home and at boarding school. Although it was full-fat, we obviously drank way too much. I suffered from boils in junior school and cystic acne all the way through high school. My last year of high school was the worst - I had tests for glandular fever, IBS, barium meal x-rays for ulcers and so many other tests to find out why I had constant joint pain, brain fog, lethargy and crippling stomach pain. All tests were negative. I believe now that my entire body was battling inflammation but 30 or so years ago no doctor checked the cause behind the boils or acne - they just prescribed lotions, potions and pills. I have been following the ketogenic principles for a month now and have ditched milk for heavy cream in coffee. All the changes to my mindset about eating and the foods I now consume have made a drastic improvement to my overall health. Your advice and knowledge is straight up and to the point.
Hi Dr. Berry. You have saved my life. Almost 3 million on carnivore and all my diabetes and symptoms Att gone. Blood sugar below 100. Prostate is normal again and leg and foot swelling is gone. Thanks so much. Would love to talk to you some day
> Other doctors don't have a handle on Keto yet. Berry is more than a "doctor." Remember, doctors are just laymen with medical degrees. That's why what they do is called a "practice." .
Why hasn't anyone sued the goverment for allowing unhealthy food to sell to the public...? Also for allowing grains to be modified & hurt our health...?
I always wondered the ame thing! :-( WE THE PEOPLE should go after the gov, USDA & FDA with a class-action lawsuit for lying to us & posioning us with unsafe products!!!!!!!!! They are suppose to protect our health & children health, not destroy it!!!
Have you updated your thoughts on dairy since this came out? I'm going through all your excellent videos and may have missed a newer version. Thanks for all the great advice!
Many years ago, in Finland, I was introduced to leipauusto, which translates to "bread cheese." It's a baked cheese made from reindeer, goat or cow's milk right after they've given birth. In Finland, it's about 14-18% fat. I loved it a lot and hoped to figure out a way to get some after coming back to the US. I never did get to try and make some, but eventually, 3 years ago, found a packaged cheese from Wisconsin in my local grocery store called Juusto, and it tastes almost the same, although it seems to be lower in fat. I've been eating a 2 oz slice of this cheese almost every morning for breakfast (or afternoon, if I skip breakfast).
I’m of Scottish ancestry genetically and have just discovered beef, hard cheese and the carnivore diet is best for my GI and overall health. Best I’ve ever felt.
Thank you for your info on dairy. I was raised on a dairy farm in Kansas. As you might expect, we drank a lot of whole milk and got along fine, but when I moved away from the farm, I began having some problems after drinking SKIM milk. Now I know why! Thank you.
My sister used to say I have a milk belly. Instead of beer belly because I was way too young g for that. But she was spot on. I used to drink a ton of milk. I’d go so far as to say the majority of my protein and fat came from milk as a kid. I’m 6’4” with a large bone structure. And I love cheese. But these days on carnivore, I’m really trying to stay away from cheese. It’s also expensive on a pound by pound basis compared to meat, especially chicken and pork, but even some cuts of beef.
My cousin goes to a colonic therapist for colonic irrigation. Her therapist told her to stay away from cheeses that melt because they clog up the lower portion of the large intestine near the colon. She told me that hard crumbly cheeses do not give her Adverse effects like melting cheeses.
Dude, you're a southerner and failed to mention one of the most satisfying forms of dairy of all -- buttermilk. When I was a child visiting my grandma, Roxie Rogers, down in Fuquay Srings, North Carolina many decades ago, I didn't have any interest in the buttermilk that she liked to drink. Later in life, when I was interested in trying out some of those things that I turned my nose up at when I was a child, I tried buttermilk. I loved that tart flavor in that cultured milk product. It became my favorite drink. Now, I've been living in S. Korea for several years where you can't buy buttermilk. So sad. ;)
I'm not sure you'll see this but here is my question: My cholesterol is a little over 300 and my LDL is about 280 and I HAVE been on a keto diet for several years due to statin use. Lipitor was turning me into a type 2 diabetic and so several years ago I stopped BUT it doesn't take much to get my BS to over 100. My functional PA is not concerned and in fact the Doc she works under said he wished his numbers were like mine. DO I NEED TO BE WORRIED ABOUT HIGH CHOLESTEROL? QUESTION I WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOU ADDRESS IN A VIDEO: What about things that someone with borderline diabetes and kidney disease should and shouldn't eat. (eGFR 40) Remember you said you would answer every question..so, please...
Thank you, God bless you. I eating per your recomendations. I was diagnosised with Hashimoto, Sjorgrens B, NAF Liver. Poor sleep, bloating, Anxiety, depression due to chronic health issues. After 2 weeks, able to walk 2.5 miles, sit ups, & weights. Praise God!!! The only drink that still bothers me is coffee & Tea, my body hates caffeine. Keep up your amazing work, you are helping many people like me to have a better quality of life. 😊
Thank you sooooo much!!! I drink 2 cups of coffee to have heavy cream. It's one of my treats. Just letting you know you look much better now than you did in your early content. God bless. Keep the information coming!
Would it be correct to posit that before easy refrigeration much less milk was drunk, and much more cultured dairy and cheese products existed, hence the sensitivity to lactose / casein was less pronounced than nowadays when it's all so readily available?
No, there has always been an abundance of milk consumed in the UK. It was given free to schoolchildren and recognised as an important food source until the 1970s. The problems with 'intolerances' has more to do with intensive farming methods and food processing.
we started keto/paleo on feb 26- husband is type 2- was on 72 units of insulin a day-his A1C is 11- he is off his insulin and we are marching onward... please list the cheeses by name that are safe for us... i have to tell you i was on 4 diff. pain meds for my fibro. and RA knees, and I am now off my meds.. i WAS drinking a gal of whole milk a week and orange juice, now dairy free... so please help me in the cheese department.. i have shared this channel will all my Keto and Paleo fb pages
KenDBerryMD Hello Dr. Berry, can you do a video about the ketogenic diet for children? I have a autistic 5 year old boy that has a lot of constipation issues and was wondering if this can help him. Thanks!
Hi Dr. Berry , I'm from Australia and have been watching ,learning about carnivore from you for about 4 months now and have never felt better and have lost about 8kg. So thank you for enlightening us all to the truth about food , what's good and what's not . I love dairy and usually have A2 milk which doesn't have the A1 protein which causes all the gut issues. But after watching this , I think I will start using cream in my coffee and tea. 😊. Thank you for all your advice in your videos !!
Hello Australian! Glad you found Dr. Berry. I am infatuated with Australia so good to hear that everyone around the world is getting informed about the lies we’ve been soaking up about food.
Dairy such as ice cream, that we know has allot of sugar, I feel is good, just don't eat a ton of it daily. Also just don't eat a ton of anything, just eat a balanced combination of whole foods and do a little bit of fasting. I have a little bit of ice cream every other day and it doesn't seem to hurt my weight or diet.
Depends on the cream too. My whole life my family used emlea but I've noticed that contains a lot of vegetable oils, not what the health concious keto type wants.
Same! Always used Elmlea until a friend told me it wasn't real cream...I looked at the ingredients. It's literally vegetable oils and chemicals. Haven't touched it since.
It is so much cheaper and easier to make your own. I learned how from watching youtube videos. You know whats in your milk now and not all the added things. Its way less expensive to make your own rather than buy store bought you just have to allow a couple hours to overnight to soak them first.
I make homemade kefir using whole milk. No added sugar. We love it. I also use it as a base for smoothies. You just need some kefir seeds to get started. Look for someone who can share some with you or order some online. Put about a tsp in a pint jar. Add whole milk to almost fill the jar. Cover with a coffee filter and screw on a jar ring. Let it sit on your kitchen counter for about 24 hours out until it thickens. Those works faster in warm weather and slower in cold weather. Then strain the kefir into a clean bowl. Put the seeds back into your jar and begin your new batch. Put the strained kefir into a fresh jar, cover and refrigerate until you're ready to drink it. You can use it in place of buttermilk too.
Thanks for keeping up this video. This was like the foundations being laid for what has become a new and beautiful building. Now in 2023 many ordinary people are aware that "low fat" food is often "high sugar" and even applies to milk!
Doc, I am considering the keto diet but I don’t really need to lose weight. I actually have finally put on a couple pounds and am happy about it. Any advice would be great. I really enjoy your channel. Thanks
I find all milk products inflammatory and if you have a predisposition towards arthritis, avoid all dairy products (exception small and very occasional cream) I have recently learnt this the hard way; over consumption during Xmas period and the result is a debilitating inflammatory swelling to most joints which made sleeping and walking painful and exhausting. I have cut out milk products and within a week have seen such a huge difference in my mobility. Keep up this important work Dr Berry, it is life changing! Love to you all from the UK
I'd be interested in investing in a serious study of the long-term effects of drinking non-human milk. I always loathed skim milk, and high fat whipping cream is a big favorite, though I always felt guilty about enjoying it!
My elderly neighbour will love that. He is trying to get his weight, bloodpressure and diabetes down and is right now giving meatbased lowcarb a try. I brought him on to that and like to support him with extra hints. I am doing carnivore. Week 4 now.
I started a keto diet on 09 March, on the 22nd of April i went carnivore, i can say that the transition process has been a little bit of a challenge for me, days are not the same, some are better and some are worse but i am still pressing on. I use cream and plain yogurt, you did covered on the cream part but i still have a questions on whether i should continue with the plain yogurt or not, its really helped keeping me stable.
I've been doing KETO now for about a week, and I am very hopeful. So far, I've been really surprised about how I'm NOT having food cravings. The meat and fat is really doing it. I started looking into it because my triglycerides are high, and I have high blood pressure. I really appreciate all your videos. Have watched some ten or twelve so far. Funny, I was just wondering about cheese, and up popped this segment. As a biology major many years ago, and having extensively studied evolution, I may have some insight about the apparent paradox about humans having been drinking milk for thousands of years. Something important to remember is that a species can endure, even if the individuals do something that is harmful long term. To survive, a species does not have to do everything is the best possible way. It merely has do well enough to survive to reproductive age. Evolutionarily speaking, it's not important to live past the age where the offspring can fend for themselves. Anyway, just a thought. Thanks again for all you do. I will be heading over to patreon.
Doctor can you upload what you eat in a day videos including water drinks snacks exercise etc. Weekends do you have cheat meals. Lord Jesus bless you for all the good advice you give.
Love this, I wish my husband would get on board, he has RA, Hashimotos and had prostate cancer. I have to tread lightly or he digs in his heels, hopefully he’ll learn and cut inflammatorys out of his diet.
Thanks for the heads up, I always tell my family that American cheese food is not real cheese but my husband gets upset by it ,so thanks for giving me proof to my case😀👍
Thank you Dr Berry, this was a really interesting talk and through your lunch hour :) I replaced milk with heavy cream about 10 years ago. I use cream as I would milk and I love it.
Thank you ftor keeping it real. Love these . Will be watching while on my treadmill daily. I leave it running very slow so I can hop on anytime all day with my laptop cabled to a big TV to YOUTube while treading and using my stepper.
I'm new to your channel. Love the information you are giving out. Every video of your that I've watch has helped me to understand where I need to be. Thank you
Thank you Dr. Berry,! Im strictly carnivore for 7 months now, and lost 52 lbs. But I added whole milk because someone on UA-cam said its good for you, and I gained 4 pounds in one month on milk. I went straight to fridge and poured it all out. Except my organic butter I put in my coffee each day! Thank you sir! You're a life saver!😊
What do you think about the ketogenic diet?
Dwight Johnson I think it is a great place to start the weight-loss journey.
Wish you were my doc!
Dwight Johnson I'm loving it!
Dwight Johnson I have been following a ketogenic diet ever since I had an A1c done in the mid-90's. I guess it's been about 20 years. I got my A1c down around 4 and never looked back.
Thanks for this. I’ve been on keto for 7 months and enjoy fresh full fat cream from our local cheese factory here in the Swiss alps. I enjoy approximately 5 black teas with a generous splash of this during the day. Wards off hunger and is very satisfying. However, I suspect it could be the cause of not seeing any loss of inches on this diet yet. So I have stopped all cream for 2 weeks to see if it makes a difference. The reason is until I turned 15 i was allergic to all dairy because it caused my chronic asthma. After two weeks still nothing is moving ... my question is do you see a link between an allergy as I was young and problems tolerating it in keto now (im 41). Thanks for your consideration.
I'm from Holland and I've been raised on fat milk, cheese, cream and butter.. still do. Now I use organic .. I'm healthy and not overweight .. never been. I am now 72 years young and dancing .. 😉👌
In Pennsylvania USA we are lucky to have raw milk for sale. Full fat and it’s not white it’s got an orange tinge. That’s because the cows eat grass only. Last year I started making my own cheese from raw milk. Love it
Cool..! Live long..! 🐮
Everyone who ever lived in a free range farm or nearby, knows that whole these videos on dairy products are seen with the eye of some people under hysteria. There is a problem with lots of dairy farms within USA... dairy injected with growth hormones and processed foods used to feed dairy animals which are exposing human health to a lot of risks. Some signs of it tried to spread in Europe too, but hopefully we will keep resisting to it, which i wish USA does it too.
Free range and farm products that are not treated with DNA engineering methods are healthy and are the last hope people have to live a healthy life in harmony with the nature's rhythm and without need to run on daily supplements to cover food deficiencies.
@Gary Thompson .. thank you, Gary .. I dò hope you are happy and fairly healthy now. Best wishes from the Netherlands! 👌
@@kicknadeadcat I'm from PA and that's one of the things I miss MOST! I'm currently in ND and they think raw milk will kill you. You can only buy raw milk if you have a cow share or for your pets from some farmers directly. Its garbage.
Fat does not make you fat any more than sugar makes you sweet!💕 Love you Dr. Berry.
Fat will make you fat if you are getting all your energy needs from carbs. With all the carbs the body will burn the carbs and store the fat for future use.
Judy Rowland hahah cute!!!
My blood is sweet enough as a diabetic, I don't need to add extra to my diet.

Doc fats are good but how about if i have fatty liver . What to eat
@@officesjctv4007 watch the episode how to reverse fatty liver
@@officesjctv4007 you have fatty liver from eating too much sugar and storing it in your liver. It's not from eating too much fat. Your liver stores glycogen for energy which is sugar too much and you get fatty liver inflamed

OMG! I have been drinking skimmed milk for years and dieting and only getting fatter! Now I know why. No more skimmed milk for me, thank you :)
Dinglehopper Day Dreamer that was my first thought! I've been on a diet since I was a kid, I've also been fat since I was a kid. It's all starting to make sense 🤔
I sort of understood the insulin response thing but never made the connection to milk. Its both funny and sad, my niece's pediatrician told my sister that my niece wasnt gaining weight as fast as they thought they should.... My sister and her husband drink 1% milk and she could stand to lose a few pounds while he is, unfortunately rather obese. They are giving my nieces whole milk so they will gain weight....oops
I know right? EVERYTHING we've been told to do has been the exact opposite of what keto doctors are saying - almost like our American diet is designed to kill us or make us sick enough to enrich Big Fucking Pharma and Big Agribusiness/Big Food. Disgusting. SMH.
When I was a kid, "blue milk," which is now sold as "skim milk" was a waste product of milk production that was used as pig feed to boost fat before slaughter (otherwise, it was sprayed on the fields as fertilizer; milkfed pumpkins were common). When I see blue caps on milk in people's buggies at the market, that's all I think of: "pig feed." Which, by the by, is just pure sugar.
Miki Odendahl, yep, skim milk is used to fatten pigs (or used to be, not sure if they still use it)! My mom used to tell me the same thing!
Wow! This is the first time in 64 years I have heard this. I have switched completely to heavy whipping cream, half and half and almond milk only. I have never liked or drank skim milk. Its amazing what I am learning late in life. Keep it coming. I am a sponge at this point.
Almond milk is garbage
Almond milk ain't nothing but sugar it ain't even milk it's all carbs not good
Well done 👏 my understanding of almond milk, almonds are high in omega 6....not good....take care
You may want to switch from almond milk to coconut milk. Almond milk is full of oxalates, phytic acid, and Omega 6. It's really not great for your health.
@@michaelmoore2802 Be cautious a lot of the almond milk has a ton of sugar. some tastes like a milkshake.
Started 4 months ago with Keto, coming off of 6 months of a vegan plan. I had lost a few lbs but needed to lose almost 50 to be accepted for knee replacement surgery. I hit a wall with Keto - almost not losing any weight no matter how religious I was about adhering to that diet. So decided to research intermittent fasting with Keto. Bought the best scientific based book, studied the science behind fasting, and watched Dr. Berry's You Tube videos. Since I was already off sugar and carbs of any kind - I had no problem physically adjusting to 16 to 24 hour fasts twice a week. I also do aqua fit classes 3 times a week. I am now almost at the required weight for surgery. After the surgery, I need to drop another 50 lbs to get to a healthy goal weight. I have also been able to stop my asthma meds, and I have lose about 2 lbs a week consistently. I sleep much better, my skin is healthier, my big belly is half the size it was when I started - I can actually bend over all the way to the floor now. I am 74 years old.
Sylvia Smart way to go!!
That's fantastic good job!
Good work. I’m 70 and down 25 lbs in 3 months and still cheat a bit.
I’m lovin this Dr. Berry.
You go girl 👍
Hi Sylvia, you might want to look into the Carnivore diet and Dr. Shawn Baker in particular. He’s an orthopedic surgeon who used to perform many joint replacement surgeries. In his,prior orthopedics medical practice he helped many people avoid joint replacement, even with “bone on bone” joint damage, by following a Carnivore diet and eliminating inflammatory foods that were causing the joint damage.
I have been drinking heavy cream in my coffee for years- and getting lots of flack about it ! Now I know I was right all along! thanks for confirming that doc! lol
I too have always used cream in coffee since learning what is in that powdered stuff. It is the only taste I like for coffee now. If I don't have cream, I skip the java
@@CobCeo I used to put sugar and creme but now only drink it black. It's the best way to see if you have good tasting coffee.
Proper quality raw milk is the healthier choice
by far, per results with ones health / per ones body integrity, compared to the more insidious congestive effects of pasteurized and especially when also homogenized although some beneficial nourishment still occurs.
@@CobCeo the powdered stuff is literally the reason a guy at my work won't drink the coffee. He then spends the night drinking 2 full sugar monsters and 2 cans on coke. Followed by eating cakes etc full of crap 😅
I spent a lot of summers on my grandparents dairy farm. We used to drink raw, whole, unpasteurized milk. We were a chocolate-loving family, so my uncle, who ran the farm and the milk route, would drink an entire quart of raw chocolate milk on a break. He is now 93. My grandmother churned our delicious butter!
Grandparents are wonderful. And they come with knowledge that they pass on. I salute yours; mine were great too. We’ve been fortunate.
I think most negative effects of milk people experience come from the processing of industrial milk. There is actually no difference between no-fat, low-fat, semi-fat or full-fat UHT milk. All are made from mixing processed milk fat & protein powders with water. Then they add worse quality corn syrup sugar to those that they call "lactose-free", or add different vitamins or omega-3's etc to those that they call "enhanced". It is 100% laboratory stuff. Not to forget all the chemicals that makes sure it doesn't go bad fast. All the antibiotics which they add to the original milk sources since they receive milk from tens of thousands of cows and they cannot ensure they are all fully healthy and not sick.
If you have access to raw milk from a single cow (or few cows max) which you personally know is healthy, that is in my opinion one of the best sources of nutrition. No other food beats it.
Dr. Ken didn’t have anything to say about raw cows milk. I have just started drinking it and thought it was healthier for me.
@@joycedwyer8778raw milk is one of the healthiest foods, but at the ens of the day all dairy is still more inflammatory than clean carnivore (meat)
Raw cream has no sugar.@@AsAWhiteManMarriedToALatina
Finally a doctor that talks sense !! I wish I could find one in the Uk ! I’ve been keto for 18 months , eating 300 g of fat a day and have gone down to 8% body fat !!
300 grams of fat a day! WOW I thought 100 was a lot !! N you're doing alright with it eh ?
@@13gladiusToTheKnot I eat 250g fat a day, how else are you going to meet your calorie requirements on keto?
Actually I did go to a high fat diet for a few months. Including a stick o butter a day. And almost no veggies. What I got eventually was a very itchy skin with "Prurigo Nodularis" which dermatologist didn't really know how to fix other than topic steroidal creams which turned me into a total greaseball. Was it the high fat that did it to me? IDK but I quit all fats & drank huge veggie juices. After several months. All symptoms went into remission. Therefore vif you're feeling good with what you're doing I'm not gonna to U to stop but different people have different experiences
By the way, Dr Berry, thanks for being open, not using big Doctor words we cannot understand, and explaining everything so clearly!
Doc, I just can't find the words to thank you enough! I want my good Lord to Bless You for blessing us with such practical advice!
I was drinking a lot of milk back in the days and didn't realize I had milk intolerance for my whole life ! I was treated with a lot of medicine to heal my stomach and gut. But all I had to do is stop drinking milk !
I’m just starting and I can see a huge change on water retention on my body, I am diabetic and I am on dialysis 3 times per week, 4 hours a day. Thanks so much Doctor for your advices and recommendations on dieting.
Here's something that people should think about when drinking skim milk. When I was growing up we had one cow on our farm just for the house, making butter, ice cream, cottage cheese and whole milk, but we always gave the skim milk to the pigs we were raising and they would gain so much faster drinking the skim milk that we'd sell those hogs months before the other hogs that were just raised on grain, the skim milk is fattening with a lot of sugar, that's why we gave it to the pigs, to get them to market faster.
As I said above, a cup of skim has 13g of sugar, whole has 11g. Which doesnt seem like much difference.
And the calories for skim are 80 vs. 150 for whole.
Organic, grass fed raw a2 milk is quite digestible! And actually really good for the gut!
Not for everyone. Some people don't tolerate any milk proteins.
Dammit. I needed this advice 40 years ago!
Me too
same
Dr. Berry you are definatley a doctor for the people! Thanks for being you 💓
So true! I wish we knew this back in the 80's and 90's! I was always taught skim milk was healthiest. I've found out the hard way.
Thank you so much for giving up your lunchtime to help us! It is much appreciated!
Ha ha! I remember back in the good ol' days when I drank skim milk thinking it was healthier. So glad I found keto! Going on almost 2 years now.
Dr. Berry I so happy to have you as my guardian Doctor! My health is bad I’m trying to get it back on track. I have morphs and I’m just about as allergic to every type of dairy, meats, spices, and I know for sure I’m allergic to sugar anything that is sweetened with sugar or even honey I cough up a lot of phlegm after I eat or drink. I notice that if I eat anything salty it also makes me cough so bad that I break the vessels in my eyes. I started the keto diet yesterday and I have cough very little. I hope to get better. Thank you for sharing all your healthy advice.
I own a Jersey milk cow I raised her from 7 weeks old. I wanted her for health benefits of drinking raw milk. It has reversed my allergies
I have always loved full fat milk, but I have found a place where I can buy raw milk and I can not go back now.
Sorry, I do not believe that for one second--did you move somewhere at about the same time? God has not arranged for healing thru something like cows milk that is not made for human use. Something is not right here...
There are no health benefits in drinking raw, un-homongenized milk--only a lot of high risk.
steve billiter check out the Weston A Price foundation, many people have healed many illnesses from raw cow and raw goat milk
@@davidchad77 No way, man, that's false science--that will cause illnesses. A Duke university study reveals the cows milk causes a myriad of diseases.
Satan will work with that, the Bible reveals it is he that causes all diseases. That means he can remove them for purposes of deception. I'm sure that's what's going on with this Price Foundation.
@@stevebilliter Raw milk has the enzymes to break down lactose while all the milk in the store has been processed thus losing all the necessary enzymes. Without the enzymes, it is in no way beneficial to a human's body. Stop the god talk and speak science. This is what this channel is about.
Morning, I’ve started everything you have recommended, I’ve lost over 1kg in two weeks, I sleep like a baby , I’m more alert, happy and no way could I imagine eating crap again, no sugar no bread nothing just everything you mention, il check back in in a couple more weeks but thank you !! Chris 🇬🇧
I make homemade milk kefir probiotic from organic whole milk. Pretty much cured my terrible lactose intolerance.
I do the same. Drink just just 1/2 cup for any intestinal troubles...done
Months down the road now. Drink 8oz everyday. I just love the stuff and it’s like a treat so satisfies the carb urge.
@@susankoch1319 may I please have the kefir recipe?
Jeremiah Wells. I make yogurt. But, I have never made Kefir. Do you have a recipe or process you wouldn't mind sharing?
@@LordStanley94 I got kefir grains (not an actual grain, but that is what they call them.) It looks like a tiny cauliflower. I put the grains in a quart canning jar, pour in whole fat milk cover the jar to keep bugs etc out and depending on the temperature wait a day or two. The longer you wait the more of the lactose is used up. I then chill it in the fridge. Then I pour the contents of the jar into a large glass and use a slotted spoon to fish out the kefir grains. The grains are alive and will get bigger and multiply over time. The kefir has a similar taste to yoghurt but in a drinkable form. I bought my grains from Ebay.
Before I went low carb/keto 3 weeks ago, I was not only addicted to sugar, but top on my list was CHOCOLATE MILK!! Love your info and suggestions doc!! 💕
That explains some things in my life. My mother gave me "brown" milk because I couldn't keep the cow's milk. So I never drank milk. In my teen years I ate cheeses because my father was a deli lover (yes salamis but also caviar and stuff). He could dare me to anything (think octopus eyes...). I always had a good muscular body, weighing less than 100 lb even after 3 pregnancies. Mostly because I was doing competitive sports.
Things started to go bad years later when I had a terrible accident. The surgeon gave me pills that made me eat 4 times a day (I was so hungry). My GP changed them after a few months but it was too late.
So I went on a diet (IP lost 62 lb.) and had to use skim in my coffee but no cheese. Bad reaction all the time (eczema mostly, to the point I couldn't bend my fingers). I went on Dr. Poon (lost 10 lb) w/skim again and a bit of skinny cheeses. Flares of eczema on my whole body.
I'm on Keto now, eat a lot of cheese and cream and no eczema or hardly. Love most of your videos, Nicole
Women look good with muscles.
I agree! My problem is cheese is addictive for me. Love grass fed extra sharp cheddar. When I buy it. I eat the whole package that day and crave more for days. I do better sticking to steak, eggs, butter and bacon.
Thanks so much! I was worried about my extra sharp cheese and Heavy whipped cream in my coffee. Just started. Have tried Keto. Close fit, I loved the lack of cravings after low carbs, but I am one of those people that cannot even get into ketosis unless it is almost 0 carbs.
I am just now hitting Keto flu with only coffee, cream, and meat for the last few days. My A1C a year ago was 12. I have been working on lowering it since. BP is better. But still feeling like crap so I went full Carnivore. Not even eating my pistachios. My steak sauce is salt and pepper and sesame oil. I am going to get healthy. The thing that gets me the most is how much less I am hurting from osteo arthritis and fibromyalgia even after only 2 days. I remember that too. Yeah I am going to make this work.
All you need on your steak is salt - the sesame oil is inflammatory, duck fat is much better, healthy and not inflammatory. Good luck on your journey to being pain free and healthy
OMG!!! I have been drinking skim milk for years!! I am so glad I will no longer!! Thank you... Loving this new info and was of eating and living!
Thanks for the tips. I’m absolutely floored!
Beginning to incorporate a little keto in my diet. Started by drastically cutting sugar and carbs. The weight has come down and my joints are hurting less.👍 Rock on!
Don't do a "little keto" go all the way or don't do it, the reason? You'll never be in ketosis if you don't go all the way
I wish my husband would listen to this advice...but, sadly...he won't. Such great, interesting, educational information. Thank you. Dr. Berry!
Thank you, so helpful. I am overweight and my husband is diabetic. We are committed to ending these plagues in our lives now.
Well. Its 5 years later and everyone is still afraid of fat.
Yes, completely baffling knowing how much correct information and proof to the contrary that is out there.
One BIG reason is that if you ever put yourselves into the hands of heart surgeons or heart docs, the first thing they do is put you on the low fat.
@@GilmerJohn there's actually a heart surgeon who's been doing the rounds on UA-cam promoting high fat. I forget his name but you'll find him easily enough
@@aaronwells6608 -- Oh, I don't doubt that. But the "consensus" still is low to zero fat!
"that ain't cheese honey" roflmao I love you so much You're so funny
I do half and half because only 1 carb and 1 gram of sugar will try the heavy whipping cream today! Thanks bro doc! From Pennsylvania!
I use about six ounces of whole milk (warmed) to make me sleepy (right at bedtime). In these tense times, it has really helped. Passing this along because some may not know about this trick to provide more typtophan by warming the milk. It works! (Psychiatrist friend suggested this. He said add a little honey too, but I do not because of diabetes.)
I am so glad that I wandered on to your channel, Dr. Berry! I started Keto in March 2018, but not confidently because I didn’t know that doing my best wasn’t good enough.I did lose about 25 lbs, but then my 93-yr-old mother -in-law moved in with us in July. Gradually Keto went out the window because everything has revolved around her and keeping her happy (and hopefully pleasant). I gained back the weight and feel so ill (also diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis in 2012). We announced to her on Sunday that we would continue to eat with her but we were no longer going to eat the Sam way she eats. It involved fireworks and tears and drama, but we (my spouse and I) are holding firm to take care of ourselves. The videos I’ve seen so far are very informational and encouraging. Thank you for doing this! Happy Holidays! We just ate Wheat Belly focaccia bread with cream cheese, capers, red onions and smoked salmon for Christmas breakfast.yes, we say with my MIL while she ate her instant oatmeal, cereal bar and black coffee. (No, we can’t change her. She’s 93 and it’s her way or the highway.) Thank you again.❤️🎁🎄
but she has lived to the age of 93, what she is doing/eating, can't be that bad.
@@gwenbuchanan1 93 years ago food was very different, she most likely ate what we would call a Whole Foods Diet until she was an adult, with sugar foods as a festival/holiday treat. So, a conservative guess would be she has only been eating crap foods for about 50 years.
We can't compare the health of one generation to that of the next without taking their food timeline into account.
Best of luck with your MIL. My dad and my husband's parents are all aware of keto and follow (or not) some version of it. I don't think my grandparents would have ever changed the way they eat if it weren't because food was killing them, and even then my grandmother's both strongly resisted the change.
so sorry you have to live with you MIL
What about cottage cheese and cream cheese? What you just taught me is exactly the opposite of all the information I got from the classes and nutritionists after being diagnosed with diabetes...I have been doing everything incorrectly. Glad I found you...wish I had found you sooner. I have started the process, though, so thank you for ALL your advice.
If you have a stiffer intolerance, why eat sugar over other foods?
Thanks!
So i need to go back to the way I was raised.This makes alot of sense
I’ve been on Keto for 18months, and I adapted very quick without keto flu. I’ve previously had Prostate cancer in 2015, now my PSA is down to 0.13. Bladder cancer came along and operated on. My immune system is flying now, although I still having immunotherapy, camera probes show no inflammation.
I don’t drink copious quantities of milk anymore, but I still have the heavy creams, and cheese.
Regarding the proteins in milk; A1 protein is most found in normal milk, which people have a problem with, like here in the UK.
Try A2 protein found in Jersey and Guernsey cows. It’s far better for the body to digest, but the creams, cheeses, and butter are bloody gorgeous. Best regards...Steve
Look for A2 milk
"Mammals.... like your mom..." That made me laugh so hard!! (Sorry, I'm immature. LOL!!)

Why do you think you found it funny?

Awesome info, wish you were my physician. Your patients are really lucky.
Thank you for this video. It makes so much sense and probably explains a lot about my health issues as a teen. I was brought up to believe that milk was THE food source and we would drink mugs of it - at home and at boarding school. Although it was full-fat, we obviously drank way too much. I suffered from boils in junior school and cystic acne all the way through high school. My last year of high school was the worst - I had tests for glandular fever, IBS, barium meal x-rays for ulcers and so many other tests to find out why I had constant joint pain, brain fog, lethargy and crippling stomach pain. All tests were negative. I believe now that my entire body was battling inflammation but 30 or so years ago no doctor checked the cause behind the boils or acne - they just prescribed lotions, potions and pills. I have been following the ketogenic principles for a month now and have ditched milk for heavy cream in coffee. All the changes to my mindset about eating and the foods I now consume have made a drastic improvement to my overall health. Your advice and knowledge is straight up and to the point.
That was fast, energetic, clear, and so helpful !!! Thank-you for taking time out of your lunch-break !
its great to see you take time out of your busy working day to make these important videos Dr Berry. i absolutely love them
Joe Farrelly I second that!
Hi Dr. Berry. You have saved my life. Almost 3 million on carnivore and all my diabetes and symptoms Att gone. Blood sugar below 100. Prostate is normal again and leg and foot swelling is gone. Thanks so much. Would love to talk to you some day
I wish many more doctors would do what you are doing to help us live healthy and strong. May the Lord Bless You Dr.

Other doctors don't have a handle on Keto yet. Berry is more than a "doctor."
Remember, doctors are just laymen with medical degrees. That's why what they do is called a "practice."
.
Too much money in pharmaceutical's for them to tell us what's healthy....Sad!!
Why hasn't anyone sued the goverment for allowing unhealthy food to sell to the public...? Also for allowing grains to be modified & hurt our health...?
Take personal responsibility for your own actions,like what you eat or drink. We do NOT need government telling us what we cannot, or can, do.
Try it! Good luck.
I always wondered the ame thing! :-(
WE THE PEOPLE should go after the gov, USDA & FDA with a class-action lawsuit for lying to us & posioning us with unsafe products!!!!!!!!! They are suppose to protect our health & children health, not destroy it!!!
One would need millions to fight the fed. Too much back door money from all the huge corps providing the nasty food.
Jim Hansen wait until there is nothing left to buy but go guru and kraft singles. We don’t need regulation SUPPORTING food conglomerates either.
Have you updated your thoughts on dairy since this came out? I'm going through all your excellent videos and may have missed a newer version. Thanks for all the great advice!
He changed the title to add “2023,” at the end of that answers your question.
Many years ago, in Finland, I was introduced to leipauusto, which translates to "bread cheese." It's a baked cheese made from reindeer, goat or cow's milk right after they've given birth. In Finland, it's about 14-18% fat. I loved it a lot and hoped to figure out a way to get some after coming back to the US. I never did get to try and make some, but eventually, 3 years ago, found a packaged cheese from Wisconsin in my local grocery store called Juusto, and it tastes almost the same, although it seems to be lower in fat. I've been eating a 2 oz slice of this cheese almost every morning for breakfast (or afternoon, if I skip breakfast).
Always good information. I’m lucky to live in Scotland with wonderful beef and cheeses. Thanks for sharing your knowledge
I'm envious of you living in Scotland. So much processed and unnatural food here in the states, I have to go to a health food store to get good food.
Marvelous! You’re so lucky!
Beef is good, but lamb is sheeper. 🐑
I’m of Scottish ancestry genetically and have just discovered beef, hard cheese and the carnivore diet is best for my GI and overall health. Best I’ve ever felt.
@@allieshepherd7860 Don’t eat it processed foods then. Grocery stores are filled with healthy meats cheeses and vegetables.
Thank you for your info on dairy. I was raised on a dairy farm in Kansas. As you might expect, we drank a lot of whole milk and got along fine, but when I moved away from the farm, I began having some problems after drinking SKIM milk. Now I know why! Thank you.

My sister used to say I have a milk belly. Instead of beer belly because I was way too young g for that. But she was spot on. I used to drink a ton of milk. I’d go so far as to say the majority of my protein and fat came from milk as a kid. I’m 6’4” with a large bone structure. And I love cheese. But these days on carnivore, I’m really trying to stay away from cheese. It’s also expensive on a pound by pound basis compared to meat, especially chicken and pork, but even some cuts of beef.
My cousin goes to a colonic therapist for colonic irrigation. Her therapist told her to stay away from cheeses that melt because they clog up the lower portion of the large intestine near the colon. She told me that hard crumbly cheeses do not give her Adverse effects like melting cheeses.
Dude, you're a southerner and failed to mention one of the most satisfying forms of dairy of all -- buttermilk. When I was a child visiting my grandma, Roxie Rogers, down in Fuquay Srings, North Carolina many decades ago, I didn't have any interest in the buttermilk that she liked to drink.
Later in life, when I was interested in trying out some of those things that I turned my nose up at when I was a child, I tried buttermilk. I loved that tart flavor in that cultured milk product. It became my favorite drink. Now, I've been living in S. Korea for several years where you can't buy buttermilk. So sad. ;)
I'm not sure you'll see this but here is my question:
My cholesterol is a little over 300 and my LDL is about 280 and I HAVE been on a keto diet for several years due to statin use. Lipitor was turning me into a type 2 diabetic and so several years ago I stopped BUT it doesn't take much to get my BS to over 100. My functional PA is not concerned and in fact the Doc she works under said he wished his numbers were like mine. DO I NEED TO BE WORRIED ABOUT HIGH CHOLESTEROL?
QUESTION I WOULD LIKE TO SEE YOU ADDRESS IN A VIDEO:
What about things that someone with borderline diabetes and kidney disease should and shouldn't eat. (eGFR 40)

Would it be correct to posit that before easy refrigeration much less milk was drunk, and much more cultured dairy and cheese products existed, hence the sensitivity to lactose / casein was less pronounced than nowadays when it's all so readily available?
No, there has always been an abundance of milk consumed in the UK. It was given free to schoolchildren and recognised as an important food source until the 1970s. The problems with 'intolerances' has more to do with intensive farming methods and food processing.

Hi Dr. Berry , I'm from Australia and have been watching ,learning about carnivore from you for about 4 months now and have never felt better and have lost about 8kg. So thank you for enlightening us all to the truth about food , what's good and what's not . I love dairy and usually have A2 milk which doesn't have the A1 protein which causes all the gut issues. But after watching this , I think I will start using cream in my coffee and tea. 😊. Thank you for all your advice in your videos !!
Hello Australian! Glad you found Dr. Berry. I am infatuated with Australia so good to hear that everyone around the world is getting informed about the lies we’ve been soaking up about food.
Dairy such as ice cream, that we know has allot of sugar, I feel is good, just don't eat a ton of it daily. Also just don't eat a ton of anything, just eat a balanced combination of whole foods and do a little bit of fasting.
I have a little bit of ice cream every other day and it doesn't seem to hurt my weight or diet.
Make your own ice cream with stevia instead of sugar
Depends on the cream too. My whole life my family used emlea but I've noticed that contains a lot of vegetable oils, not what the health concious keto type wants.
Same! Always used Elmlea until a friend told me it wasn't real cream...I looked at the ingredients. It's literally vegetable oils and chemicals. Haven't touched it since.
Just found your channel I LOVE IT!!! Thank you for doing your homework 🤗
This was sooooo amazing ! I am Thanking my sister Audry for turning me on to you Dr!❤️🙏Many Thanks!
Thanks for breaking it down as it helps me focus on specifics!
Dr. Berry can you please do a video on nut milk! Are they safe? Is cashew milk safe? Is almond flour safe? Love your videos you are the best!
somewhere I read the store bought nut milks are 2 percent nuts. it tastes mostly like water to me.
It is so much cheaper and easier to make your own. I learned how from watching youtube videos. You know whats in your milk now and not all the added things. Its way less expensive to make your own rather than buy store bought you just have to allow a couple hours to overnight to soak them first.
Suzanne Johnson Re: Nut milk. Yep you are basically paying for water. Do what @tina wray says ☝️
If it's a transformed product it's crap.
stopping calling it milk ... no matter how hard I look, still can't find any nipples on any nuts!
What about sour cream or cottage cheese?
I make homemade kefir using whole milk. No added sugar. We love it. I also use it as a base for smoothies.
You just need some kefir seeds to get started. Look for someone who can share some with you or order some online. Put about a tsp in a pint jar. Add whole milk to almost fill the jar. Cover with a coffee filter and screw on a jar ring. Let it sit on your kitchen counter for about 24 hours out until it thickens. Those works faster in warm weather and slower in cold weather. Then strain the kefir into a clean bowl. Put the seeds back into your jar and begin your new batch. Put the strained kefir into a fresh jar, cover and refrigerate until you're ready to drink it. You can use it in place of buttermilk too.
Love kefir and have made it for years! Full fat and A2A2. The sugar gets fermented out.❤
He has said no smoothies on KETO
The problem with smoothies is the added sugar.
Kefir isn’t a smoothie.
Thanks for keeping up this video. This was like the foundations being laid for what has become a new and beautiful building. Now in 2023 many ordinary people are aware that "low fat" food is often "high sugar" and even applies to milk!
Thanks Doc. just what I needed, heavy cream, and hard cheese.
Doc, I am considering the keto diet but I don’t really need to lose weight. I actually have finally put on a couple pounds and am happy about it. Any advice would be great. I really enjoy your channel. Thanks
Thank you for some really good videos. Seriously great quality information!!!
I find all milk products inflammatory and if you have a predisposition towards arthritis, avoid all dairy products (exception small and very occasional cream) I have recently learnt this the hard way; over consumption during Xmas period and the result is a debilitating inflammatory swelling to most joints which made sleeping and walking painful and exhausting. I have cut out milk products and within a week have seen such a huge difference in my mobility. Keep up this important work Dr Berry, it is life changing! Love to you all from the UK
Many Thanks! Question: What's your take on 4% natural yoghurt? Or 10% Greek yogurt? And kefir or butter milk?
Thanks Dr. Berry! I really enjoy your videos and subject matter!
I'd be interested in investing in a serious study of the long-term effects of drinking non-human milk. I always loathed skim milk, and high fat whipping cream is a big favorite, though I always felt guilty about enjoying it!
My elderly neighbour will love that. He is trying to get his weight, bloodpressure and diabetes down and is right now giving meatbased lowcarb a try. I brought him on to that and like to support him with extra hints. I am doing carnivore. Week 4 now.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you . You are awesome. I never comment on videos. You have helped me so much.
Love you Dr. Berry. Love your honesty and commitment to our health.
YOU ARE THE BEST BLESSINGS TO YOUR WORK!
I started a keto diet on 09 March, on the 22nd of April i went carnivore, i can say that the transition process has been a little bit of a challenge for me, days are not the same, some are better and some are worse but i am still pressing on. I use cream and plain yogurt, you did covered on the cream part but i still have a questions on whether i should continue with the plain yogurt or not, its really helped keeping me stable.
You did not touch on kefir or Greek yogurt etc … pretty please❤️
I've been doing KETO now for about a week, and I am very hopeful. So far, I've been really surprised about how I'm NOT having food cravings. The meat and fat is really doing it. I started looking into it because my triglycerides are high, and I have high blood pressure. I really appreciate all your videos. Have watched some ten or twelve so far. Funny, I was just wondering about cheese, and up popped this segment. As a biology major many years ago, and having extensively studied evolution, I may have some insight about the apparent paradox about humans having been drinking milk for thousands of years. Something important to remember is that a species can endure, even if the individuals do something that is harmful long term. To survive, a species does not have to do everything is the best possible way. It merely has do well enough to survive to reproductive age. Evolutionarily speaking, it's not important to live past the age where the offspring can fend for themselves. Anyway, just a thought. Thanks again for all you do. I will be heading over to patreon.
Food cravings go away on keto. Isn't that awesome!
When I want to drink milk I add water to my heavy whipping cream. You’re welcome.
So i want to add some water to you :)
That is GENIUS! Lol
LIFE CHANGING ADVICE HOLY SH*T. THANK YOU
Me too! That's what I use for milk in my recipes and for my rare treat of cornflakes 😅
Chat about raw milk. Is it better than pasteurized dairy?
Doctor can you upload what you eat in a day videos including water drinks snacks exercise etc. Weekends do you have cheat meals. Lord Jesus bless you for all the good advice you give.
Love this, I wish my husband would get on board, he has RA, Hashimotos and had prostate cancer. I have to tread lightly or he digs in his heels, hopefully he’ll learn and cut inflammatorys out of his diet.
Thanks for the heads up, I always tell my family that American cheese food is not real cheese but my husband gets upset by it ,so thanks for giving me proof to my case😀👍
Thank you Dr Berry, this was a really interesting talk and through your lunch hour :) I replaced milk with heavy cream about 10 years ago. I use cream as I would milk and I love it.
Never too late, found your channel in 2019❣️🇬🇧❣️ Excellent advice.
Thank you ftor keeping it real. Love these . Will be watching while on my treadmill daily. I leave it running very slow so I can hop on anytime all day with my laptop cabled to a big TV to YOUTube while treading and using my stepper.
I'm new to your channel. Love the information you are giving out. Every video of your that I've watch has helped me to understand where I need to be. Thank you
Thank you Dr. Berry,! Im strictly carnivore for 7 months now, and lost 52 lbs. But I added whole milk because someone on UA-cam said its good for you, and I gained 4 pounds in one month on milk. I went straight to fridge and poured it all out. Except my organic butter I put in my coffee each day! Thank you sir! You're a life saver!😊
Milk is fattening
I love milk, and I've been drinking a lot. I've cut out all other sugar out of my diet, and I'm eating low carb. Time to stop drinking milk.
