Hi I love this! Now, I did see a study on humans and the actual study addressed the pancreatic, which you addressed. It mentioned something about pre-existing issues. This keeps me from trying it because I have had some gatric/digestive issues and have no health insurance to get a dr's apprival first. The next thing it mentioned was that thyroid cancer within the first year in a certain amount of people in the study, which is alarming. So, you covered that as well, however, in rats. The thing I observed in the human study is tgat all the people in the study had diabetes, so there is no way to know if the thyroid cancer I attributed to the diabetes itself or if the medicine had something to do with it. There us no way to tell in this study. So basically another study would need to be done for that, or, in a year or 2, the same or similar number of people in our population wuth duabetes will get thyroid cancer w/o this medication, or we will see an uptick of thyroid cancer above the norm for diabetics on this medication. We will see
However, you said it best, family history and awareness are really key for a Dr to make the determination to prescriber. Thanks for this great segment. I had never seen you before.

Just in America alone, there are approximately 769,000 beef growers, 24,000 dairies, 67,000 pig farms, 168,000 chicken farms, and 4,500 fish farms. This doesn't include the tens of thousands of vegetable farms and orchards. America produces far more food than it can use and there is no reason whatsoever for food inflation in America or the slightest lack of food. Quit believing the lies, about food shortages are causing higher prices or shortages, because it's not about a lack of food, it's because they are selling too much of it to other countries.
Here is a list of hard to impossible Illnesses to heal from, where people take medicine for the rest of their lives and suffer from amputations and intestine portions being removed and so much more. The cure is a high protein and good fat diet, also known as the Carnivore Diet. My recommendation before visiting any more doctors, is to start eating fatty Fish - Salmon, fatty Beef - 80/20 Hamburger, Chicken, and Pasture Raised Organic Eggs. Use real Butters, Olive Oils, Avocado and Avocado Oils, and season with Salt, but avoid Black Pepper.
Here's the list of diseases that the Carnivore Diet cures.
1) Hypertension
2) Atherosclerosis
3) Type 2 Diabetes
4) Obesity
5) Metabolic Syndrome
6) Inflammatory Bowel Disease
7) Crohn's Disease
8) Ulcerative Colitis
9) Rheumatoid Arthritis
10) Lupus
11) Multiple Sclerosis
12) Migraine Headaches
13) Depression
14) Anxiety
15) Eczema
16) Acne
17) Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
18) Fibromyalgia
19) Anemia
20) Chronic Inflammation
Don't take my word for it, try it and see if it works.
Always try to get foods that are raw, wild caught, pasture raised, free ranged, grass fed, high Omega 3. If you have trouble with digestion, start off with ground meats, fish, or chicken. Never use any kind of vegetable oil. No sugars. Using digestive enzymes will definitely help, but a spoonful of apple cider vinegar before each meal helps also. No processed meats.
