    For me, going cold-turkey carnivore has done amazing things for my health. I too, eat to live. So far, I have not missed anything that I have given up. My thought is why put something back that was possibly or actually causing harm? There is no benefit to that. Being an example of how great this works is how I tell others about what wonders it is to have this kind of menu. Now 6 months in and very happy. The only challenge that I have had is the balancing of the electrolytes, but after different things done differently, with one change at a time, everything feels much better. Many thanks for all of your knowledge and genuine sincerity. (comment date 6/6/2024)

    For several years I was trying to eat a clean healthy diet and was eating a lot of salads ( eat the rainbow) and would make a green smoothie, walnuts flax and chea seeds kale spinach cinnamon turmeric and a little fruit,banana or apple. I developed nasty eczema, for over a year both arms and legs got raw and weeping itching and burning and sun exposure would burn. Dermatologists didn’t help at all and said diet had nothing to do with it? Started on carnivore and within a week it seemed I was starting to heal. For the next couple weeks my skin peeled off like a snake and bye a month it was like I had new skin. Amazing 😊

Also I have learned that most of those super healthy foods are loaded with Oxalates that can build up in all body tissue and cause all sorts of problems and unfortunately can take years for your body to get rid of?

    • @Richard-Smith-Nutrition
      @Richard-Smith-Nutrition  4 місяці тому +1

      Hi there Donna,
      I will certainly suggest this video idea to Richard, it is a question I hear quite often. What I tend to advise people when it comes to the amount of fat to eat is this. Do not stress too much about how much or little fat you should eat on a Keto/Carnivore diet, just do not fear eating it. Your main priority is your protein intake, which you will almost certainly achieve following a keto/carnivore lifestyle, as without carbs your only other macronutrients are going to be made up of either proteins and fats.
      So if you focus on that, the fat intake should come naturally. If you feel like eating the fat on your steak for example, do it, if you don't, don't. It is all about what is sustainable for you. When become fat adapted, you will be using fat and ketones as a source of fuel for your body all while keeping your insulin levels stable. Some people do indeed eat sticks of butter or chuck a bunch in their coffee and so on. But it isn't something you have to do.
      Most people will find it perfectly fine just consuming the fats that come with the meats or whatever you cook your food in.
      I hope this helps answer your question a little - Ryan, Keto-Pro Team

      Hi Davey, Thanks for watching.
      A ketogenic/carnivore diet however, is not the Atkins diet. Atkins diet still has you consuming carbohydrates and the unwanted nasties that they contain, slowly introducing more carbs as you go along in their 4 phases.
      A keto/carnivore diet is about eliminating these completely, avoiding harmful things such as lectins and other unwanted contents. It is focused on health and bringing the body into the natural state that we are born in, as much as many use it as a tool for weight loss. - Ryan, Keto-Pro Team
