I told my Dr I was doing Carnivore to reverse blood test markers for Graves Disease - Autoimmune. She said try whatever you like, but make an Endocrinologist appointment. No one was as shocked as my Dr when 6 wks later ALL MY BLOOD WORK CAME BACK PERFECT. Told me to cancel my specialist appointment.
The opposite happened for me and was told get off this diet immediately, A Metabolic Panel was done and I was told
my perfect diet is Low Fat, Low Protein and high Vitamin C. This diet is not for everybody. I feel really good on the
proper diet for me.
Keep sharing, carnivore saved me physically and mentally. Keep up the great work!
@@donnav7103what exactly happened ?
I bit the bullet and told my doctor that Im a carnivore.....waited for a small explosion but she just said " if its working for you , carry on " . We will do some tests now to see what drugs can be dumped.😊
Fantastic!!!! 💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼😀
Woo hoo!
Maggie in Canada has 62 or 64 years on Carnivore.
Steph, I've been Carnivore since the end of July (2023). Had fibroid breast cysts, and in the previous year and a half, began to have horrible burning pains that would strike out of nowhere. Would nearly incapacitate me until the pain passed. Since getting on Carnivore, and doing the 2 drops of iodine a day, I have had NO breast pains!!! 👍
Awesome ❤️ Thanks for the useful info 🙏
Interesting on the carbs vs fiber. I'm having a colonoscopy this week and the instructions for two days prior to the colonoscopy are no fiber (veggies of any kind), but eat only meat or eggs. This fits in perfectly with what you were talking about.
There's a lady rancher who is 85 yrs old and has been doing carnivore for 65 years. She was interviewed by Dr Chaffee on UA-cam. Also, another 80 yr old lady interviewed by Nutrition with Judy Cho. There are more older ppl who have been doing this way of eating before it became a thing like it is now. They definitely don't look their age.
Yes I saw that! Amazing!!! She looks like she’s 50
@@StevenSteph Amazing is right. I thought the same thing about her age. She's an encouragement. She's got me convinced it's a good thing.
@@StevenStephP.S. Awesome doctor you went to. Glad she listened to what you were telling her, plus her looking into it while you were still there and she was open to the info.
Can you post the links to those interviews?
I just told mine and he wasn't happy, he got frustrated and acted like I was wasting his time! I spoke to a nurse who works under him and she was much more positive, told me to stick with it if its working.
Awesome!!! I’d get a doctor who was on board! I feel like we need the support and encouragement of someone on board because it’s so extreme ❤️
Speaking to Steven's comment about many people not being armed with the proper vocabulary when speaking with their physician, I was chatting with my dental hygienist recently, who "claims" to also be a nutritionist. She told me that the brain requires sugar to function properly. Being somewhat at a loss for words, I blurted out "we'll, I guess I'll just have to continue on being stupid".😊
I love your response! Sugar us a major contributing factor to Altzheimer's, and the brain is made mostly iof cholesterol! Not sure where the heck she got that "the brain needs sugar." My head hurts when I ear sugar! That can't mean something good for my brain.
When I told a friend, her comment was ... No carbs? Your brain needs carbs!
Your hygienist was right, glucose is needed for the brain. You realize when you come off this diet you will be glucose sensitive.
What a load of bull!@@donnav7103
@donnav7103 Meat and seafood raises the blood sugar enough for the body to get the glucose that the body needs. We don't need a ton of sugar to get the miniscule amount of glucose we need.
EYL !!!!!!!!!!!! I have the urge to turn right at the next stop sign🛑
Steve made a good point - Steph, you have been so enthusiastic and immersed in this diet, that you were able to sell it to the doctor. Yes, I know she is open-minded, but you brought a high level of intelligent discussion to it too. That makes a big difference.
Glad things are looking good otherwise. Will be fascinating to see the lab results!
Thanks Elsa ☺️ I’m excited to not get scolded or judged! 😆! 💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼
Thanks so much for sharing. Love learning about this
Sooo glad that you to are doing so well! Much love to you and Puddy! 🐾♥️🥰😍🤗♥️🐾
Hi. It’s so proactive of you Stephanie, good for you! So happy that you are feeling so good Stevie. 💖from me to you. 🇨🇦
Sounds very promising, I will watch your future updates.
I'm on the same road, Carnivore for 3 months now. Loving it feel better, no GI problems, no headaches, and some other things. I will stay Carnivore! Yes I am 72 and have been lied to all my life about what we should and should not eat or better yet a "Balanced Diet" is!
So glad you are taking care of yourselves. God bless y'all.❤🙏❤🙏
I follow Dr.Barry he’s amazing dr! Thanks for sharing all the information that you have... I need to get my Mother on this ...
Good morning, very busy Saturday, but I will certainly watch your video in full this afternoon 😊
That's a great dr appointment! Glad to hear she's willing to work with you instead of just instantly scolding you about doing the carnivore diet.
Thank you Steph for your research & posting the labs we should ask our dr. The information you’re sharing with us is wonderful. I’ve been reading & researching but I have a hard time comprehending & retaining the info that I’ve started writing it down.
Yes!! It’s a LOT to process and remember because it’s all the opposite of what we’ve always known! 🙈
She could use your information to give to someone else. Dr. sounds as if she is a very opened minded, and you are very informative to the public. You both are great. 😊
What a great doctor.
Good doctor visit. You’re very fortunate to have this doctor. Btw, I got some beef fat and air fried it. WOW!!! Delicious.
Omggg we’ve been LOVING it!! It’s so delicious! YUM! My air fryer just broke yesterday (fan stopped spinning and it’s under warranty) but they won’t be sending a new one for 3 weeks backordered! What am I gonna do?! LOL I love my fried fat now so much!! 😆😆
Great video for all of us to learn from…👍
Thank you Steph!!!!
CBC is Complete Blood Count test. I hope all comes out Great for you Steph!! Much Love!! ❤
Great idea for a video. I purchased Dr. Berry's Common Sense Labs "book" a month ago and will, like you, bring my labs list in and have the carnivore discussion with the doctor and nurses. Dx with Type 2 diabetes in Jul 2023 and immediately changed my lifestyle to carnivore. Lost 50lbs so far and have 25 lbs to go for ideal BMI. I suspect my A1c, lipid panel & fasting glucose (they didn't check fasting insulin on original labs) have all migrated back towards "normal" ranges. We shall see. I do know the nurses will freak out over the weight loss at least 😂 Your doctor visit experience has given me hope in my doctor's office. If they dont agree with my WOE choice, well, I'll find a doc's office that will help me on this health journey to reverse T2 Diabetes and sustain this way of life.
New subscriber to your channel and look forward to watching your other videos after work today.
Well done!!! I am looking forward to hearing all about your blood work results. I am also Carnivore and have been for 2+ years ... my blood work is perfect although the cholesterol is just a smidgen high, but it is normal for the lifestyle... and I am super happy... the health improvements are awesome!! Also, new follower to your account, looking forward to hearing more! Congratulations guys!! Well done!! 💞
Hubby told his hematologist he was doing carnivore and she said…very important…you can’t cheat…you must follow it completely! He was so happy…next visit is to tell his primary care doc.
I’d be that way Steve, “ I know I don’t need it but I can’t explain why!”
😂 Glad I’m not alone Martha 👊
Same. That would be me, too.
I'm like Steve with the inflammation, my main problems are the carbs they kill me. One thing that I do is I buy European flour (our flour has additives that are banned in Europe) I only use it for coating things. I watch Tic Tok videos of people in other countries (mostly UK) and they tell what things that we have that are banned there because of the harmful ingredients. One thing that I don't understand is why companies like Quaker or Mountain Dew make one version of things for us that are banned in the UK but for Europeans they make a healthy version for them.
I don’t understand it either! 🤯 it’s all about the money so they’ll alter anything for any reason for the sale I suppose
Yeah, that's messed up.
It is obvious, our regulatory agencies are bought off!!!!!!! Just about every government agency has their main contributions coming from the food and Pharmacy companies!!!!
Profit probably
I have always had an underactive thyroid & always had 2 use the salt that is iodized. I am glad 4 ur health & listen 2 it all BUT plz do a dumpster diving video once in awhile. Not a short but a full good 1! I really miss it & i am sure alot of us do! 😊
Or a palate unboxing!
Steve, have Steph go in with you for your doctor’s appointment. I go in with my husband. He’s deaf and won’t ask questions.
I told my doctor about carnivore, and asked for labs, he said i had not been on it long enough to make a difference but for me to keep taking my statins. Lol on another note, my chimney sweep guy just told me that he started having seizures in the last couple of years and they have him on meds that are making him feel crazy and feel suicidal and won't switch him. So i told him about carnivore and he was wondering why his doctor has never recommended a diet change. I forwarded him some videos to get started on his research and i told him to please keep in touch with his results. 😊
What I find so fascinating is that doctors are always concerned for our long term health on the carnivore but they don't in turn worry about the long term impact of the SAD. They still preach the party line. They don't realize the long term health of SAD is why America is metabolically compromised.
That is SO true! Never had a doctor ask how much processed food we eat or how much sugar we consume 🤔
Paul Mason says "fiber" constipates. Great talk you had with your doctor!
Oh my visit this week didn't go well. Md first statement "It's not sustainable", 2nd " Your brain needs carbohydrates to function" I countered both but couldn't quote articles/studies.
Then EKG showed I was in A fib and i was immediately put on blood thinners and Beta blockers and to repeat EKG in 2 weeks. Labs did show i was hyperthyroid and i have stopped thyroid med for 2 weeks then resume lower dose and repeat panel in 6 weeks. I forgot to ask for magnesium level.
Been Carnivore since August 1st. A1c now 5.3 down from 5.8 and down 15 lbs. (45 lbs since 1st of year with IF and slow adaptation from SAD to low carb to paleo to ketovore) I have another 50 -60 lbs to go depending on where my body wants to set at. The "thumpiness" has been going on for over a year every 6 weeks or so but was never captured on EKG or stress test or event monitor.
Next visit i will go with references in hand...
Dr. Cywes says less polarizing term would be 'euglycemic'. I will learn to read the room and play my cards closer to my chest.
She was aghast at the lipid profile- I was not. Now to find a cardiologist that will work with lifestyle modifications. Years ago i had tried 3 different statins and I'm not able to take them due to muscle/joint pain.
Great visit for you Stephanie i wish to be as articulate.
Wow! So scary when you have other health factors to consider! You’re quite a believer! I hope you can find a doctor on board with you-it would feel so much safer! 🤞🏼❤️
I have to wonder if they "cant" run the tests without a issue for it, if that is because the insurance wont PAY for it? I am 9 months into Carnivore, keep asking the questions. Too much Vitamin C has given my wife stomach discomfort while on Carnivore. She was supplementing Vitamin C for years, and cut it back.
The labs she can't order you can order for yourself online. Insurance won't pay, it's out of pocket, but often affordable.
I've had the same thing with iodine and cysts. So interesting.
I’m thrilled for you! Mine was already interested in carnivore but didn’t know anyone or have any patients that had told her they were doing carnivore till be me. My husband “ratted” me out at his appointment the week before mine 😂. So she added some extras to my list of labs last minute. I didn’t remember about your list. I said the same thing about cholesterol, she thought it might be high too,and we were both surprised that it dropped over 40pts. It was in high high normal before and now really good lol. You mentioned a while back you didn’t think you were getting enough fat… pork belly cooked int air fryer. Beef brisket not trimmed to death ground at home for hamburgers. - Jan
Awesome Jan! Glad your husband ratted you out! 😆😆😆it’s a bit of a relief to be transparent and find out your doctor is on board!! Phew! Congrats on your cholesterol! Can’t wait to hear mine 🤞🏼🤞🏼
Me again😂 She also said to make sure I am eating twice the fact to protein and two not ever worry about calories in calories out. I am so lucky to have her. 23 years my doc.
Wonderful!! So happy for you to have found her! 💃🏼💃🏼
It makes one wonder why she didn’t recommend this way of eating many years ago🥹
Steph you talked about the idiot in Salt, my grandmother told us that we need salt w/iodine, she said that was what caused the knot or gourder on your neck stick out, I've started buying the seasalt salt but I also use the iodine salt cause of that.
Haha, "Butter Boobs" !! I'm just starting Carnivore, and I hope I get the "butter boobs" too 😂
I wouldn't know how to have that conversation with my doctor. But I don't even know how he would react! You're doctor needs to talk to my doctor!
Buy Dr. Berry’s book- Lies M y Doctor Told Me, and Common Sense Labs
Excellent!!!
That was a very very good doctor's visit! Thank you for sharing with us. I'm excited for you and to hear your results. The boob thing is interesting LOL. I thought mine were getting a little Fuller and I'm 63 years old so maybe it's true. I also put two drops of iodine in my coffee every morning because I also don't use regular salt anymore I'm on Redmond's are pink Himalayan salt but mostly Redmond's. Congratulations on your awesome Dr visit!!! 🎉
Woohoo! I hope one of these tests tells me about iodine! I don’t want to supplement if I don’t need to 😀 I do feel like a LOT of us need it and I don’t know why we’re not all tested for it often if it’s so magical! 😆
My cholesterol was 199 on a low fat carb diet- now on low carb my cholesterol is 172!
A UA test is a full urine analysis, checking for blood, protein and all the othere things found in your pee to see if kidneys are working properly ❤
Oh awesome! Thank you!
I haven't heard of a doctor not worried about cholesterol. They all seem anxious to get you on statins. Hang on to that one!!
You might enjoy looking up Homestead How, he is making the Carnivore Diet Documentary. He might want to interview you both.
I have to admit, that although I am subscriber, when you started this diet I watched quite a few of the video's on this and then lost interest because for one, I was worried about your cholesterol and what it was doing to you. But this video has put my mind at ease about that. Not that my opinion about your health matters to you. I thank you for this video, and I think you are doing everything right by doing so much research and finding that Dr. seems fantastic for both you and Steve. Thank you
Thanks for keeping an open mind! That’s awesome and thank you for being concerned for us! ❤️❤️❤️ We know you’ve been with us a long time so that’s sweet 😘
I’m excited to start carnivore in February but I kinda want to start so[oner. I have to go to SF though for school the first week of February so I think when I come back will be perfect timing. ❤ ty for sharing everything
if on SAD with lots of carbs try lowering them down to say 100 g total carbs a day for 7 -14 days and a 7 to 14 days before going Carnivore reduce down to 20-30g carbs - Doing it gradual may reduce the effects of the Keto Flu as you become fat adapted - Dr Berry and some others suggest this - info only do your own searches eg "keto Flu"
That’s a great idea Jim! Make the transition a little easier! 🤞🏼🤞🏼
To help smooth your transition, start eating Keto now, which is 20 grams of carbs a day or fewer, in a 70% fat, 20% protein b protein, 5% carbs ratio.
And eat no more preservatives or artificial anything. You will notice a lot of positive changes, and this will be greatl
I personally don’t see doctors. My preference is a great Nurse Practitioner. I have one. When I mentioned carnivore she said she and her husband were carnivore before she got pregnant, cravings and such derailed her. But she was 100% on board with me, happy with my weight loss, and ordered all the labs on my list 😊.
Y'all are both looking healthier so far.
YESS! I noticed the same thing after I started supplementing iodine. I always had some breast tenderness that if my husband squeezed me too tight, I would wince. That is all gone now. I notice when I stop with the iodine, the tenderness comes back! Liver is also a great source of vitamin C which is why I don't feel the need to chase my husband around with fruit he doesn't like. I do grab a few berries here and there for myself until I can handle eating liver.
You guys are champs at documenting your experiences with carnivore. Your videos are such a fantastic resource!
Aww thanks so much! We really appreciate the kind comment!!! ❤️❤️ And always amazed at the iodine stories! We’re all deficient! 😆
Dr Berry says that in his "COMMON SENSE LABS" book, that he gives the codes for the Dr to use so that your insurance WILL pay for them... Also tells the Dr how to interpret the results
Oh man!!!! I didn’t get to that part in the book with the codes! I’ll look for them when Steve goes! 🤞🏼
Kelly Hogan...my zero carb life.... she has been carnivore for 13/14 years.
It’s great you have an awesome Dr. mine is very awesome too when it comes to carnivore or keto. I have high iron and went to see a specialist and he did more bloodwork and said that the high irion can also be do to other underlying conditions such as thyroid, arthritis which I have and other autoimmune diseases. So it’s not from carnivore.
That’s interesting! Can’t wait to see my results over time!
Yea! Dr. Berry
Steph? Can you post a link to the video that Dr Berry discussed which blood tests to request? Thx
STEPH .....GOOD JOB....
Yeah talking about how it is over long term is a question but I was wondering what the effects ( if any) would be if someone went on it for like 3 months and then stopped
Dr. Berry had a video on iodine
Where is Puddy??? I haven't seen her this week, hope all is well.
She was in the kennel in the back seat sleeping 😆
I listen to one fellow that said that on a few blood test is not two accurate because what in your blood vs in your body is two different things he said that the hair test shows exactly what’s in your system.
You can get bloodwork done for any test you want, you just have to pay for it. Your insurance won’t cover tests not ordered by a doctor. And a doctor will likely not order a blood test not covered without a compelling reason (suspected disease).
For sure use iodized salt. Mortons is perfect. I had all kinds of problems for 18 months (several years ago) and figured out it was due to low iodine. My docs never caught it. The US is the only industrialized nation that doesn't require iodized salt to be used in food production. Low iodine will throw off your thyroid and you can get a goiter. I caught mine when all my results were "low normal" which was not normal for me. It's hugely important.
Morton’s salt is highly processed and bleached. Stick with Redmond real salt. It’s far superior. I take a 12.5 capsule for iodine. I feel so much better since starting carnivore and changing my whole life.
I totally agree with the butter boobs . I have abs and real boobs and usually when I get lower BF my boobs are smaller .. I never even thought this was a thing .. I defiantly agree though ..
I have been doing Keto (loosely) I did loose 28 pounds. I am trying to go full carnivore. My doctor is NOT in tune with Keto, so I don't know what he will think about carnivore. He wants me to take some meds to lower the LDL. I don't get high blood sugar anymore. He hasn't checked me for Vitamin D for a long time even though I was deficient at one time, so I am going to take this list and ask that I can have whatever ones they didn't test me for if they can.
Yes! Whatever you do, don’t take a statin until you do your own research about them. I don’t know what exactly they do but everyone talks about them like they’re awful for you! I believe the test is called a CAC and it checks for actual plaque on your arteries and doctors drop the push for statins when they see you’re free and clear in there
@StevenSteph : Statins make my lower legs swell up as big as my knee. It was reported to the drug company. They have another drug that is not a statin, but I'm gun shy now.
Im 57, have always had lumps in the breast. The dctors said its due to caffine. Carnivore 2 years now, lumps totally gone. Breasts are more full and feel great drinking more coffee than ever. Breast exam yearly, no issues
Woohoo!! Just got my mammo this morning and asked the technician and she said mine are “definitely dense” but she doesn’t see cysts…but she couldn’t technically tell me anything, said I’d have to ask my doctor.
That is great so what disappeared might come back. How long did it take for yours to return if you don’t mind?
CBC with diff is complete blood count, Sed Rate is a mother blood test that coincides with CBC and can measures certain proteins in blood and CBC is for complete red blood and white blood cells and an array of other tests the go along with the red and white blood counts.
Bell peppers have loads more vitamin C than orange juice. Have a cold and need the C, eat a bell pepper. All I know about this Steph n hope it helps if ya need the C
I have recently read about castor oil body wraps and how it helps gut health. What would your opinion be on that subject?
I'm allergic to shellfish.I have been avoiding iodine because I was told that I was allergic to it. I had a IVP with contrast in the 1980's and I had a severe allergic reaction. My arm felt like it was on fire and when they asked me how I felt. I said sick and then I started convulsing and throwing up uncontrollably. I thought they were turning the lights off because everything went dim on me. Then the doctor told me I was highly allergic to iodine and to never get an IVP with contrast again and not to eat shellfish. I was never allergic to shellfish before that. The doctor said I got like 100 times the amount of iodine that I would have naturally. I have been trying to avoid iodine but I'm not low. Thanks for sharing the lab work list with me.
I’ve been watching so many videos on iodine and I can’t remember which ones have mentioned what (I’ll try to find the one I’m thinking about-can’t remember if it was Dr berry or chaffey or who it was) but they said many people who believe they’re allergic to iodine actually aren’t! It’s really rare to be allergic to actual iodine but they react to whatever it was they said in the video that was in the iodine contrast or whatever it was that was with it. Definitely talk to your doctor! Maybe they can test you! ❤️ (Almost all salt is iodized it’s so rare to actually be iodine itself you’re allergic to-not a doctor! Just been learning so much about it 😆❤️)
I just got my normal labs done. I wish I had this list to give my Dr., maybe next time. I go in to talk with him next week. I know that my total Cholesterol and LDL are through the roof. 😁 But, all the other tests are GREAT. No indications of the LDL being the small dense type which is dangerous...All indications are that I have big fluffy LDL, so no problems. The VLDL is low, as well.
Also, those of us who are over 55 or so and have high cholesterol levels, have a BETTER life expectancy and less risk of heart attack/stroke than those with low cholesterol.
P.S. I have Ankylosing Spondylitis, as well.
Yes here’s the Dr Berry video I saw it on it might help! ❤️❤️ ua-cam.com/video/ddT-eXz66SY/v-deo.htmlsi=TdpObmZPM3Lq4dyw
I was doing ketovore and then went carnivore for a few months to work with my doctor on healing sibo. The only thing I was low on was folate because I wasn’t eating liver. So started incorporating that. I actually prefer ketovore. All my blood work came back way better.
Tell your doctor that she needs to watch Maggie White’s interview with Dr. Chaffee who has done it for 65+ years. Maggie looks 60 but is 82 years young. She works 14+ hours a day on her ranch.
A good rule of thumb when starting carnivore is 80:20 lean meat to fat - a lot of fattier cuts are already 20% fat. Or to put it another way match grams of protein (actual protein content not meat grams) with a gram of fat. If yoyr stool is too hard then add more fat, if its too loose then eat a bit less fat.
I also started getting cramps - as i tend to only eat once or twice a day it meant i wasnt getting electrolytes for 16-18 hours a day - i now put salt in my drinking water and sometimes it tastes sweet, thats how i know i need it. Cramps are now gone, no need for the expensive electrolyte mixes, just good quality sea salt or pink salt.
iodine feeds your thyroid. She is open enough to see what the labs say, and that is good.
CBC-complete blood count
With differential…shows hematocrit, hemoglobin, wbc…all that
Sedimentation rate-high send rate indicates inflammation
UA and bun with creatinine clearance may be high due to high protein metabolism but that’s normal
Ok thank you!! Can’t wait to see my results! 🤞🏼
There are several peeps that have been on it for 13, 15, 20, 40, 60 years. They've been or are on youtube.
You get mammagrams that doesn't bother you. I just do thermagrams. I do have an appt tomorrow at 12:50 for one I already had a thermography scan done this year and a few a few few yrs ago.
Years ago I heard a doc say iodine was very beneficial especially for women that might have a history in the family of breast cancer. Plus it is needed for proper thyroid function. I don't eat seafood so I use kelp drops
Hi. Can you tell me where you get your drops.....the iodine?
Hain sea salt has one with iodine in it.
It would be interesting to have your gut microbiome tested ie stool test and see what's happening to your good/bad bacteria
Yes! That would be cool! Dr Berry mentioned on some video saw that there was a study done and carnivores had higher gut diversity than non-carnivores! He said there was no need for probiotics or kombucha etc on carnivore! 💃🏼💃🏼
I just started the carnivore and I am having a really bad problem with choking down the meat and eggs hurt my stomach and give me G.I. upset. Is this just a temporary problem? I really need to reverse my health issues and drop some weight. Can you give me any suggestions? Thank you.
We used Hain Iodize Sea Salt.
With all the food these days, who knows how we will do long term, even with just meat, they put so much crap in our food and meat that it is scary, We had raised a couple of cows, and WOW what a differance
Check out Dr Christiane Northrup and mammograms. I've never heard of having it yearly.
I refuse to do mammograms anymore. Ultra sounds are safer and are more accurate. Mammograms damage breast tissue I feel. They give false results. And now we know plants damage the breasts- on carnivore I feel confident I won’t have any issues.
Kelly hogan with My zero carb life. Has been doing carnivore for over 12 years. In fact maybe closer to 15. Steak and butter gal has been doing it for 5 years. And im not sure how many years laura spath has been doing carnivore but its been a while too. I started low carb, then keto (added fat) then carnivore. Been almost 8 years total. Maybe 4 for carnivore. But i do cheat on carnivore sometimes with keto.
TEMPLE, TEXAS
Thanks for watching Paula
I met many people who's done it 10 + yrs . Even some ppl libo increases. But you can eat all meats & even organ meats a plus. Also all your good fats included. Even bacon but it gas to be sugar free.
Fibrocystic breast are a pain, I have them also, so I'm really interested in what she says about the iodine and fcb.
This is the one I am using (someone on a carnivore group recommended it) amzn.to/3QICiZQ it’s only $10 here’s the patch test www.wikihow.com/Test-Iodine-Levels
Dr bright explains the need for iodine in great detail. She said everyone needs it, everyone is low, it’s linked to ovarian cysts and finrocystic breasts in women. Also, the glucose molecule and vitamin c are so similar that sugar binds to vitamin c receptors (like the thyroid, causing hashimoto’s), so people who consume sugar need way more vitamin c than people who don’t.
At two years carnivore my total cholesterol is 186, LDL 124, HDL 47 and triglycerides 73. My doctor told me I’m his healthiest patient and when I explained I’m carnivore with extremely low carbs, he said well we don’t need carbs for anything. In summary he said I’m very healthy for 67 and I should keep doing what I’m doing.😎🥓🥩
I would work on getting HDL higher. The closer to 100 the better.
Steph, some doctors are not on board with anything that goes against their money-making drug machine. Mine sloughed off my question about Celtic salt. If yours does the same, get another doctor.
So what are the Iodine drops you use along with Redmond and Himalayan Pink salts, etc. I'd like to have my 30 yr old chest back again. I haven't started any keto or carnivore yet but I have cut back on carbs and sugars drastically. Doing a long water fast/detox/cleanse atm.
Lugals iodine. 2% is good.
@@JennifertxCarnivore Is it better than Lugols Iodine Plus capsules? I do have a slightly underactice thyroid according to labscin Sept but dr didn't do anything about it yet maybe at my follow up appt along with some other numbers he said was slightly high
@@gingercameronfordcrouch7057 i have never done the plus capsules. I am on zero plant carnivore, and if closer to my cycle I may do the 5% Lugals drops if I feel any soreness, but usually I do the 2% lugal drops. Plus if you have tenderness closer to periods you can put a little drop right on your skin on your chest and tenderness goes away. You can’t do that if taking a pill form. And fatty beef also helps heal fibrocystic breasts. Plants are the ones causing all this breast damage, especially cruciferous veggies! I am mainly on the carnivore , but lion diet version. Love it! No dairy, no cheat days, no coffee, just remanent meat, Redman’s see salt, and water. I have been on carnivore for 1 year, 2 months, and 1 week total.
@@JennifertxCarnivore Awesome I was taking them in 2021 after a thermography scan that indicated I hss an underactice thyroid buy afterv months when I ran out I stopped taking them then in Sept my pcp took some labs for my physical and told me my TSH was indicative of a underactice thryroid but no meds yet so we will see what happens on Dec follow up. Im gonna get what for I know because I didn't go to his ordered mammogram I am waiting to go to another thermography scan for that. I am post menopausal by the way unless its because of my thyroid but Im pretty sure Im done with periods aym anyway unless by dome miracle my hormones get straightened out with a good thyroid supplement or keto or Carnivore lifestyle change. I am really curious about the Lion diet but not sutrvI wantvto do that just yet reason I say or keto is I am not a huge meat fan but I will do it if I know my health will drastically change for the better.
@@JennifertxCarnivore If it will heal fibrocystic breasts I bet it will heal uterine fibroids too? That be awesome for me cause I know they haven't gone away since I had my son or my miscarriages! They don't go away easily. I am 57 by the way had my last bleed Dec 2018 at 53 and actually had a very short bleed 4 months later like 3 days should have had it checked out but none since. Boy you can tell I'm exhausted all the typos I'm making!
Cholesterol is not implicated in heart disease…but high triglycerides may be. Funny enough low carb-keto-paleo-carnivore increases HDL and lowers triglycerides.
My iodine was low so I take it every other day
I am curious...the thyroid is what takes up iodine. So maybe she is checking your thyroid to determine your iodine levels. 🤔
