I've been a carnivore since late August and I'm in the best shape I've been in years. No more joint pain. Lost eight inches on my waist! It's been amazing.
WOW!! I have been looking for this type of advice for years.. I'm so very happy that i found you yesterday 💕 💛. I've already watched some of your videos late last night. Thank you, thank you, thank you for caring 💗 ❤ from Texas
This video was so helpful to me. I am really struggling with under eating and I am down to about 100 pounds 5‘2“ and I won’t even get on the scale anymore. I’m also 82 years old and have had to be on thyroid medication Since I was 20 years old. Fractured my hip a year ago so that has been additional stress. I tend to be a perfectionist and I have got to loosen up. You gave me so many ideas of things to work on so thank you so much. It is far easier to lose weight than to gain weight I have found. I am going to make some big changes. Really my only cheats have been yogurt and blueberries. So thank you again Judy. I should have had a coach from the beginning.
we all need coaches. ❤ The best way to eat more is to eat small meals multiple times. Think of the food as medicine and that you "have" to eat for healing... And as you find a rhythm, you can do what works for you long term. I hope you have more healing very soon. and Ps. Don't be hard on yourself. The blueberries isn't wholly the reason you're sick.❤
I'm 400 days into carnivore, there's been ups and downs but I love it. Of all the videos I've watched, this was probably the most helpful one and shines light on how I can take it easier on myself!! Thank you Judy, you are such a gem in this community❤
OMG I absolutely love this video! I have watched so many carnivore videos lately as I’ve been transitioning from vegan to vegetarian to carnivore and I love that your not as strict I feel less resistance in my self. Community is important!
This was a very well thought out video, practical, and presented in a thoughtful non-judgement way. It is very encouraging to know this can be a long time healing and longevity way to eat. I have listened two times now and will listen to take notes. I’m in my third month of carnivore and i have been amazed at the changes so quickly happening to improve my wellbeing.Thank you for such a phenomenal video, you are a true credit to your profession! ( I am a critical care nurse, so I have some high standards for excellent physicians, such as yourself!)
Hi Judy, I have followed many influencers in the carnivore community and I like most of them and their contents. However, you have this really down to earth and practical side in your way of explaining things that I really appreciate. As a mom of a soon 6 year old, I’m trying to provide my son a healthy way of eating but the temptation a great in our world. Food provided by the school, the peers even the families are very confusing for him. I really hope you can make an episode that talks about your own experiences as a mom of three and how you help your children to form a healthy eating habits. Many thanks!
I am pretty fit and athletic person, after having C0v1d in 2020 my health went down the drain. I couldn't breathe as normal, my endurance went down for about 70% so subsequently my workouts suffered as well. Also in this period i started to have gruesome wrist and back pains, hips problems, knees and ankles. I just pushed 4 years feeling like shit convincing myself that "TOMORROW WILL BE BETTER" story, but tomorrow never came...untill a month ago I saw a video on UA-cam about carnivore and I just went all in. No more pain, my lungs are better, my sinuses are no longer congested, my workouts are starting to be better and better, I have no longer problems with blood in my stool, no longer stomachaches, literally no bloating.I went from 90kgs down to 80kgs in about 24 days(without even tryingto lose weight). Oh yeah, I eat about 2-2.5kgs of beef a day plus 5 to 10 egss. This is frickinnnn awesome. LET'S GO!!
Tried carnivore for 2 months but became a wreck mentally regarding the restriction. I've given myself permission to go keto 50gms. Most days I can do 20gms but the pressure is off. Much more relaxed. It takes time to work things out. I got the app carb manager that helped. Took the guess work out.
@@rfolea2 Some need iodine to get all the way there, some need absolute lion diet if they have hashimotos, some have underlying issues like hidden infections, black mold, or hard to measure deficiencies like B1. Don't give up, you can heal!
Hey there, Carnivore can absolutely do that but you have to make sure you are not under eating. As long as you're eating plenty that should give just enough insulin bump to help with your thyroid. Have you had your iodine levels tested?
@@rfolea2me too, 51 yr old female, my TPO is down 70% to 187 ui/ml, but my thyroglobin antibodies is up 23% to 787.... Just dropped dairy (heavy cream in coffee) and have kept butter, but less of it... stopped coffee several times but doesn't seem to do much, but have cut back drastically though... mostly having pain in joints, exhaustion, hot flashes, causing depression and anxiety of course... carnivore 22 months and so much better than I was feeling all around, so I have ZERO desire to change. I am thankful to have started, because of Judy and the other carnivore drs! Easiest way to eat ever, I love it.❤❤❤
@CoryHobbs2178 I have. When taking an iodine supplement, my iodine was way high. On no supplement now and my 24hr urine iodine test has me smack dab in the middle of the optimal range.
Bless you Judy❤❣️ It took me years to relax with this lifestyle. 5 years! This past year I did experience calm & the ease of trusting all is well even if meals out have less than perfect WOE Your advice is refreshing !!
Thank you for sharing that. This is comforting to hear. I’m only 60 days in but I can’t get anything done. I’m utterly drained. Zero energy. Four days ago I started to add one serving of fruit back in each day and I’m hoping that might help relieve my issues with debilitating muscle tension. I didn’t want to have to do that but I’m not coping well at all. I can’t get anything done. I’m patient but I know I also have to be able to function. Your comment gives me hope I will get there eventually.
@@benicio1967 same for me. Probably because I was so malnourished at 100+ overweight but a lifetime of stress, vegetables and not enough protein & fat. We thought arthritis was hereditary but probably everyone with it in the family just ate the same: low sugar, no fat, no meat, just carbs, fruit & veg
This was an excellent video, one of the best I've seen recently in terms of helping people fit this way of eating into their life. I'm more keto than carnivore, but your comments around stress really resonated with me. Thank you.
I started Carnivore six years ago to gain better health and to lose weight as I was Class 2 obese... near morbid obesity.... So, I was not able to keep to more than about 95% Carnivore over these past six years. Now, finally have two weeks into 100% carnivore again. I did not lose one pound after eliminating sugar, grains, nuts, seeds, all vegetables and all fruits and dairy... Nope not one pound did I lose... On 100% carnivore I still do not lose anything. I did eliminate about 100 skin tags, I eliminated a lifetime of bleeding gums, I lost a huge growth on my leg that I had for 40 years, age spots faded, skin eruptions completely eliminated, as long as I kept away from dairy depression was much less. Also no more bloating or gas. I just am not able to lose one pound. Even after six years it is very challenging to avoid all carbs, but I am doing it! Not losing and being near morbidly obese even giving up so much, is very depressing. I have kept a food diary of every teaspoon of food I have eaten for about 15 years now... I only lose weight if I do an extended water-only fast but that seems to be beyond my strengths in the past couple of years. I eat mostly beef, & lamb, and a limited amount of chicken, bacon, pork, or seafoods. I do not do well with eggs, cheese or other dairy, so I limit those to very little. I am 79 years old.
Are you physically active at all? Btw, I think you’re doing great eliminating non-nutrient-dense foods from your diet and lifestyle 💪🏽 You’re 79 🎉 - living life unlike so many others. Thats a wonderful feeling in itself 🤗🤗
Wow, your results sound incredible! Have you ever checked out Dr. Boz's channel. She promotes sardine fasts for weight loss stalls. I would do a little research on that and consider giving it a try. Best of luck and blessings to you 🙏🏽
@@derekhines1078 My own Doctor retired and I am in Canada where it is near impossible to get a Doctor now, but the last blood tests I got I was determined to be Pre-diabetes with the glucose fasting. Everything else was good. Thanks for your reply with kind remarks.
I'm writing down everything I healed on this way of eating. I'm also going to start saying I choose to eat this way. I have to work on sugar addiction. What an awesome talk Judy! Thank you!
Thank you. I like cheese everyday even though I must take "dairy relief' tablets, sometimes I have tummy issues but I so love it. Want to stay on carnivore for life!. Cheers
Thank you Judy! Great video! Lots of great tips…. I’m 3+ years in Carnivore and your work and interviews have been very helpful! Have you studied the work of Morley Robbins? I’d love for you to do an interview with him?
Hi, Judy, I have one question needed to confirm with you: just a day ago I watched Dr Boz video mentioning about the presence of maltodextrin in the lmnt packets which haven’t been mentioned in the list of ingredients on the pack which got me little scared of using this. It’s true about LMNT? So scary!
Staying strictly with meat (primarily beef), eggs and (if you can handle it) dairy, is very easy if you prioritize your long term healthy and vitality over your short term sensory pleasure. Kick the habit of the short term view in favor of the long term plan and things get both easier and better. If it doesn't add to your nutrition, don't add it back in. Given that many detrimental effects take years (sometimes many) to manifest, why consume things based on the fact that there is a no negative effect in a day or two, if not more quickly? You have to think long term, not short term.
Yes, it's hard sometimes to figure out what works and what doesn't. Tried calorie counting, didn't for losing my menopausal weight. Plus I was still eating carbs. I'm sure that was why. Carbs makes me hungry an hour later. Been keto for 3months and it's working for me. Weight loss, more energy & clarity. Less stress & feeling super. I'm in control of my health.
Enjoyed your video with the exception of the word DIET. Made me wince every time it was said. It's MUCH easier to consider this a WAY OF EATING, not a diet. Appreciate what was shared.
I’m willing to go very strict if it increases the chances of healing. Definitely need to get dental work done so I can chew food properly. Bought salmon a few days ago and cooked it in a cast iron skillet with butter and it was delicious. I’m a Pilot Vehicle Operator and steer the trailers behind the trucks carrying the wind turbine blades. I work and live in my van and have it set up with a Dometic refrigerator and a microwave as well as a toaster oven and electric burner. It’s pretty easy for me to find a grocery store often enough to get more salmon regularly and since I love it I’ll have it several times a week.
So sensible! Thanks for the sanity. I switch back and forth, keto to carnivore, and both seem to work for me. So true about orthorexia in the UA-cam world.
Thank you for these tips. I am struggling with losing more weight. Been stalled for two years. Truly think it's low thyroid. Now if I could get my doctor to believe.
Just found your chanel. And love it. Ive been low carb for yrs but I have to step it up to Carnivore. Want to address my high blood pressure, keep my weight down, and cortisol levels, and sleep apnea. Ive been having some carbs like Kimchi and sourdough bread here and there, but I want to go full carnivore. I feel my best eating red meat and eggs. I quit dairy in May instill dring decaf.
Hi Judy! love your channel but, I don't agree with the your recommendation for water consumption. The more you drink, the more electrolytes you flush out. Many native people barely drink any, and when you are truly fat adapted you will make your own metabolic water. I drink no water during the day and I only get thirsty after my Omad in the evening, and will drink 1-3 glasses of water with some added salt, then I'm good for the next 22-23 hours. I do not cramp up anymore, unlike when I first started carnivore when it was awful. I did the standard recommendation of drinking more water and adding electrolytes, which I tried numerous brands differing amounts etc etc for over a year. Nothing helped till I cut waaaay back on my water intake with some added Redmonds salt.
I have 3 men that like variety....Chris Cooking Nashville has so many recipes that are carnivore that add variety...carnivore pancakes, carnivore chicken fried steak, carnivore meatloaf. (We roll it with pepperoni in the middle!)..then Ketogenic woman has carnivore noodles...All still healing...so variety makes it easy to stay carnivore.
Hi Ms. Cho, I'm trying to advise my wife to place her type II in remission. Do you have a video discussion on this topic? Her NP just put her on Jardiance along with Metformin. Yet, her fasting bgc never goes below 140. Thank you! PS: You're wonderful
Hey Judy, I've been going crazy trying to find info on how much could I be preventing healing (Crohn's disease, and all my other autoimmune shiz!) by still having some lemon juice and tea (also REALLY struggling quitting dairy (only some goat yog & kefir, but not poopin!)! You gave me some hope with your experience that these small things won't likely make a big difference, thank you!! ..But lemon juice.. any experience there?
Judy. Can you look up pastor Dennis he does blood glucose test. Have him on. He made a muffin in cup receipe that actually lowered his blood glucose 1-2 hours in by 20 points. What is causing this? I would think stable glucose readings but a drop. I would make this muffin for hamburger bun or egg sandwich. Have Dennis on and like to understand why the drop as that's huge.
Judy i watched your videos with Dr. Brownstein and I remember his saying that he has a hard time getting fluoride out of the body of his patients, can you research Tamarind and fluoride excretion and pass it on to Dr. Brownstein if he doesn't already know about it. It apparently helps to detox it out a lot better.
La dieta carnivora me salvo la vida, se que mucha gente se puede beneficiar de este modo de alimentación. Estoy convencido que los humanos somos predominante carnivoros.
Eating out; call ahead to the restaurant & ask them how they cook their food. If it’s a seed oil let them know you have reactions to seed oils if they could cook their food in tallow, or its own grease or real butter.
Great video Judy! You always have great information. I am one who struggles with drinking water. I drink coffee and crio bru in the morning. I am in the bathroom a lot so I guess I always thought I was good on the hydration. Are you sure if I just add more water to my Crio bru that it should be enough water hahaha
why does cronometer say a 16 oz steak has 120 grams of protein, if what you say is right that it has 80 grams then I am undereating, how can we really know how much protein is in a piece of meat, I try to hit a certain number of calories and grams of fat and protein. great video thanks
Third attempt on the Carnivore diet. I’m on day 60. I feel really good as long as I’m lying down. That’s no joke. I’ve been trapped on a couch for 2 months. The second I stand up my body says oh No!!! I can’t stand for more than 10 minutes without very hard heavy pounding heartbeat breathlessness and extreme muscle tension that is unbearable. I use Redmond’s, Nu-Salt (for potassium) and I take magnesium. My energy and stamina are non existent and I can’t get rid of this debilitating muscle tension. Why is this happening? I began adding one serving of fruit back in four days ago; out of desperation, in an attempt to get rid of the muscle tension and it has only provided a very slight improvement. I don’t know why I’m not losing any weight or how to stop the muscle tightness or get my energy and stamina back. Any suggestions or insight would be so appreciated. I was relieved to see one other person say she’d been on carnivore for 3 months and literally can not get out of bed. It was truly comforting to know I’m not just imagining things. I was told to add more salt but it didn’t provide any improvements, unfortunately.
I’m not sure if you are here just to scare people so they won’t try carnivore, I look on your profile and you only have cats and dogs in there, so you might be a vegan. Very suspicious that you’re so hill that you would stay on it and not go see a doctor, it doesn’t make sense at all.
Start eating a variety of foods, not just meat. Perhaps you have vitamin C deficiency, or you have consumed way too much vitamin A. Just eat like normal person. And if doesn't help, go to a doctor, who is not on the internet.
I feel the same. I even eat when I'm not hungry sometimes just to get enough calories. I'm 8 months into carnivore. I've had many things improve, but I'm praying my energy level and libido improve soon.
I have been carnivore 11 months I have not cheated. I have recently added some olives.. I have tried, and hoped that I would omit my many many immune deficiencies. So far my stomach issues are gone. I was hoping for my neuropathy in my feet and also, restless leg syndrome, insomnia would be better, but they are not. Did not have any type of sugar or caffeine, but I do have my coffee with heavy cream, 3 cups a day max decaffeinated. I hate giving that up thinking to do the lions diet that’s so strict for me anyway not gonna change anything I’m still gonna stay carnivore I love it
Look up oxalate and if you’re eating anything with high oxalate, then that may be causing you a problem. It was a major factor for me and meat does not have that nor does the salt or the butter. Good luck.
Truth is carnivore diet is a lifestyle and tool to help, but sometimes especially with mental health, evaluate what you are still struggling with, stress and weight can contribute. My sleep apnea improved, my anxiety and depression improved but I had to lose 30 pounds before I started to see results. Everyone is different bit it looks like healing is still happening
I've had restless leg and tingling in my extremities. My Chiropractor and Dr Berg recommends the fat soluble version of b1, benfotiamine. I also have regular spinal adjustments. These have helped quite a bit (in addition to carnivore) Remember coffee has the anti nutrient tannins, so like all anti nutrients can inhibit nutrient uptake
@@angieobes9835 yeah I already use that. I’m like a walking UA-cam video I love Dr. Berg, and all the others and I follow them right to the t. I had oxalate dumping when I first started carnivore was pretty bad I don’t eat any food with oxalate as I am carnivore but I did have a few olives here and there is I love them. It didn’t seem to bother my stomach but otherwise, I am caffeine, free sugar, free for 11 months now.
@@donnapope2058 well, I went through oxalate dumping in the first two months of carnivore. I have been sugar free three years, maybe more. No caffeine. I am sure there are no oxalates in my body right now from food. A few olives will not cause high oxalate. I actually am a U tube walking video, I am constantly educating myself continually. I am pretty close to 100% carnivore 11 months now I feel great but it has not dissolve my auto immune issues only my stomach issues so I’m hoping.
I feel great all over, physically and mentally. Blood work is all really good except LDL is over 500😢 HDL 106, TG 68. My dr keeps pushing Statin. My cholesterol has been very high since I am in carnivore past two years. What should I do? Any of your advices will be greatly appreciated 🙏🏻
When you change from sugar burner to fat burner heart palpation happen, eat more salt take potassium tablets once full fat burning heart palpations goes away
Hi Judy I pray that you notice and read my comment. Recently I went from a high fat Carnivore diet to extremely high fat. Basically from 82/18 to 87/13. My sleep got disrupted and poor. I went back to 82/18 but the sleep is still poor. Do you know why this is and how this can be solved?

Addiction is a bitch.
Great content Judy. Thanks 😊❤
Thank you Judy! Great video! Lots of great tips…. I’m 3+ years in Carnivore and your work and interviews have been very helpful!
Have you studied the work of Morley Robbins? I’d love for you to do an interview with him?
Hi, Judy, I have one question needed to confirm with you: just a day ago I watched Dr Boz video mentioning about the presence of maltodextrin in the lmnt packets which haven’t been mentioned in the list of ingredients on the pack which got me little scared of using this. It’s true about LMNT? So scary!
Great video Judy! Very helpful
Thank you for this, this was very good ❤
Just plain EXCELLENT. Wisdom from experience. Thank you.
It's so great to hear such a balanced and wise perspective. Thank you, Judy!
Awesome ideas Judy! Thank you!
Staying strictly with meat (primarily beef), eggs and (if you can handle it) dairy, is very easy if you prioritize your long term healthy and vitality over your short term sensory pleasure. Kick the habit of the short term view in favor of the long term plan and things get both easier and better. If it doesn't add to your nutrition, don't add it back in. Given that many detrimental effects take years (sometimes many) to manifest, why consume things based on the fact that there is a no negative effect in a day or two, if not more quickly? You have to think long term, not short term.
Thank you so much ❤😊
Yes, it's hard sometimes to figure out what works and what doesn't. Tried calorie counting, didn't for losing my menopausal weight. Plus I was still eating carbs. I'm sure that was why. Carbs makes me hungry an hour later. Been keto for 3months and it's working for me. Weight loss, more energy & clarity. Less stress & feeling super. I'm in control of my health.
Enjoyed your video with the exception of the word DIET. Made me wince every time it was said. It's MUCH easier to consider this a WAY OF EATING, not a diet. Appreciate what was shared.
This video is so helpful! The best video I’ve seen all week. Thank you for all the tips!
The conversation makes sense to me 💙💙
Great video! Love this
Thanks. I needed this today.
Ah, so great to hear. Slow and steady wins the race. ❤
Thank you great video wish I saw this 7 years ago
lol, me too.
Carnivore 23 months 🎉🎉🎉
Glad I found you I really enjoyed this thank you 🙏🏼 33:36
Thank you, Judy .. you are amazing ❤ blessings from Johannesburg South Africa 🇿🇦
Day 7 🎉 although I was feeling a bit weak today I made it through with coffee and heavy cream to supper
Comprehensive and informative, appreciate the review of the finer points!
This was excellent! Thank you. 😊
Excellent advice, practical, and realistic! I am 13 days in without any cheating and this information is very helpful!
Love your balance Judy
I’m willing to go very strict if it increases the chances of healing. Definitely need to get dental work done so I can chew food properly. Bought salmon a few days ago and cooked it in a cast iron skillet with butter and it was delicious. I’m a Pilot Vehicle Operator and steer the trailers behind the trucks carrying the wind turbine blades. I work and live in my van and have it set up with a Dometic refrigerator and a microwave as well as a toaster oven and electric burner. It’s pretty easy for me to find a grocery store often enough to get more salmon regularly and since I love it I’ll have it several times a week.
So sensible! Thanks for the sanity. I switch back and forth, keto to carnivore, and both seem to work for me. So true about orthorexia in the UA-cam world.
I really love your balanced message
This is wonderful tips that can make all the difference. Thank you for sharing.
This was absolutely amazing information. So helpful thanks so much!
Thank you for these tips. I am struggling with losing more weight. Been stalled for two years. Truly think it's low thyroid. Now if I could get my doctor to believe.
I would take iodine. You may want to watch Nisha Berry on UA-cam. She had a severe thyroid problems and takes iodine. Good Luck!
@Linda-ic1il already taking 5 drops of iodine in a.m. It has helped.
@@Linda-ic1ilYou should not supplement on iodine, unless a doctor tells you to.
This is such a wonderful and needed video 🙌 thank you, Judy ❤❤❤
Another AWESOME video, thank you Judy!!!!❤❤❤
Just found your chanel. And love it. Ive been low carb for yrs but I have to step it up to Carnivore. Want to address my high blood pressure, keep my weight down, and cortisol levels, and sleep apnea. Ive been having some carbs like Kimchi and sourdough bread here and there, but I want to go full carnivore. I feel my best eating red meat and eggs. I quit dairy in May instill dring decaf.
Thank you Judy! Really enjoy this video !
Thanks for sharing this. Was so helpful.
Terrific tips, thank you Judy
Such great advice! Liked 👍🏼 and subscribed 🔔
Excellent practical advice. We can’t b perfect.
Good info thank you!
Hi Judy! love your channel but, I don't agree with the your recommendation for water consumption. The more you drink, the more electrolytes you flush out. Many native people barely drink any, and when you are truly fat adapted you will make your own metabolic water. I drink no water during the day and I only get thirsty after my Omad in the evening, and will drink 1-3 glasses of water with some added salt, then I'm good for the next 22-23 hours. I do not cramp up anymore, unlike when I first started carnivore when it was awful. I did the standard recommendation of drinking more water and adding electrolytes, which I tried numerous brands differing amounts etc etc for over a year. Nothing helped till I cut waaaay back on my water intake with some added Redmonds salt.
She is not talking about excessive water.She is talking about adequate water.
You are excellent with your information..thank you!
I have 3 men that like variety....Chris Cooking Nashville has so many recipes that are carnivore that add variety...carnivore pancakes, carnivore chicken fried steak, carnivore meatloaf. (We roll it with pepperoni in the middle!)..then Ketogenic woman has carnivore noodles...All still healing...so variety makes it easy to stay carnivore.
Very awesome tips!
Hi Ms. Cho, I'm trying to advise my wife to place her type II in remission. Do you have a video discussion on this topic? Her NP just put her on Jardiance along with Metformin. Yet, her fasting bgc never goes below 140. Thank you! PS: You're wonderful
Great video
Hey Judy, I've been going crazy trying to find info on how much could I be preventing healing (Crohn's disease, and all my other autoimmune shiz!) by still having some lemon juice and tea (also REALLY struggling quitting dairy (only some goat yog & kefir, but not poopin!)!
You gave me some hope with your experience that these small things won't likely make a big difference, thank you!! ..But lemon juice.. any experience there?
Nice! Thanks🎉
Judy. Can you look up pastor Dennis he does blood glucose test. Have him on. He made a muffin in cup receipe that actually lowered his blood glucose 1-2 hours in by 20 points. What is causing this? I would think stable glucose readings but a drop. I would make this muffin for hamburger bun or egg sandwich. Have Dennis on and like to understand why the drop as that's huge.
Judy i watched your videos with Dr. Brownstein and I remember his saying that he has a hard time getting fluoride out of the body of his patients, can you research Tamarind and fluoride excretion and pass it on to Dr. Brownstein if he doesn't already know about it. It apparently helps to detox it out a lot better.
La dieta carnivora me salvo la vida, se que mucha gente se puede beneficiar de este modo de alimentación. Estoy convencido que los humanos somos predominante carnivoros.
❤thank u!
Thank you ❤
Eating out; call ahead to the restaurant & ask them how they cook their food. If it’s a seed oil let them know you have reactions to seed oils if they could cook their food in tallow, or its own grease or real butter.
Thank you.
Great video Judy! You always have great information. I am one who struggles with drinking water. I drink coffee and crio bru in the morning. I am in the bathroom a lot so I guess I always thought I was good on the hydration. Are you sure if I just add more water to my Crio bru that it should be enough water hahaha
❤Thank you 😊
why does cronometer say a 16 oz steak has 120 grams of protein, if what you say is right that it has 80 grams then I am undereating, how can we really know how much protein is in a piece of meat, I try to hit a certain number of calories and grams of fat and protein. great video thanks
Thanks!
Third attempt on the Carnivore diet. I’m on day 60. I feel really good as long as I’m lying down. That’s no joke. I’ve been trapped on a couch for 2 months. The second I stand up my body says oh No!!! I can’t stand for more than 10 minutes without very hard heavy pounding heartbeat breathlessness and extreme muscle tension that is unbearable. I use Redmond’s, Nu-Salt (for potassium) and I take magnesium. My energy and stamina are non existent and I can’t get rid of this debilitating muscle tension. Why is this happening? I began adding one serving of fruit back in four days ago; out of desperation, in an attempt to get rid of the muscle tension and it has only provided a very slight improvement. I don’t know why I’m not losing any weight or how to stop the muscle tightness or get my energy and stamina back. Any suggestions or insight would be so appreciated. I was relieved to see one other person say she’d been on carnivore for 3 months and literally can not get out of bed. It was truly comforting to know I’m not just imagining things. I was told to add more salt but it didn’t provide any improvements, unfortunately.
I’m not sure if you are here just to scare people so they won’t try carnivore, I look on your profile and you only have cats and dogs in there, so you might be a vegan.
Very suspicious that you’re so hill that you would stay on it and not go see a doctor, it doesn’t make sense at all.
Start eating a variety of foods, not just meat. Perhaps you have vitamin C deficiency, or you have consumed way too much vitamin A. Just eat like normal person. And if doesn't help, go to a doctor, who is not on the internet.
Meat heals
Yes, it does. ❤
Super tips
I often wonder if I'm eating enough. I eat eggs, meat and butter, but I have low energy.
I feel the same. I even eat when I'm not hungry sometimes just to get enough calories. I'm 8 months into carnivore. I've had many things improve, but I'm praying my energy level and libido improve soon.
Well said 👏
Hi Judy, I’ve been on this woe for ten months and over the past couple weeks my urine has been strong ammonia smell, what should I do?
I have been carnivore 11 months I have not cheated. I have recently added some olives.. I have tried, and hoped that I would omit my many many immune deficiencies. So far my stomach issues are gone. I was hoping for my neuropathy in my feet and also, restless leg syndrome, insomnia would be better, but they are not. Did not have any type of sugar or caffeine, but I do have my coffee with heavy cream, 3 cups a day max decaffeinated. I hate giving that up thinking to do the lions diet that’s so strict for me anyway not gonna change anything I’m still gonna stay carnivore I love it
Look up oxalate and if you’re eating anything with high oxalate, then that may be causing you a problem. It was a major factor for me and meat does not have that nor does the salt or the butter. Good luck.
Truth is carnivore diet is a lifestyle and tool to help, but sometimes especially with mental health, evaluate what you are still struggling with, stress and weight can contribute. My sleep apnea improved, my anxiety and depression improved but I had to lose 30 pounds before I started to see results. Everyone is different bit it looks like healing is still happening
I've had restless leg and tingling in my extremities. My Chiropractor and Dr Berg recommends the fat soluble version of b1, benfotiamine. I also have regular spinal adjustments. These have helped quite a bit (in addition to carnivore) Remember coffee has the anti nutrient tannins, so like all anti nutrients can inhibit nutrient uptake
@@angieobes9835 yeah I already use that. I’m like a walking UA-cam video I love Dr. Berg, and all the others and I follow them right to the t. I had oxalate dumping when I first started carnivore was pretty bad I don’t eat any food with oxalate as I am carnivore but I did have a few olives here and there is I love them. It didn’t seem to bother my stomach but otherwise, I am caffeine, free sugar, free for 11 months now.
@@donnapope2058 well, I went through oxalate dumping in the first two months of carnivore. I have been sugar free three years, maybe more. No caffeine. I am sure there are no oxalates in my body right now from food. A few olives will not cause high oxalate. I actually am a U tube walking video, I am constantly educating myself continually. I am pretty close to 100% carnivore 11 months now I feel great but it has not dissolve my auto immune issues only my stomach issues so I’m hoping.
I feel great all over, physically and mentally. Blood work is all really good except LDL is over 500😢
HDL 106, TG 68.
My dr keeps pushing Statin.
My cholesterol has been very high since I am in carnivore past two years. What should I do? Any of your advices will be greatly appreciated 🙏🏻
Your TG:HDL ratio is excellent.
@@JimWooddellDo some listening to Dave Feldman videos. He has studied your situation extensively. Stay strong.
I have been doing low carb/keto but have issues with bowels moving.
Increase fats and if you are on dairy, then try to reduce this
@@verborgenewahrheit1594 ok the only dairy I drink is raw goat kefir I make.
Hey, do you know why I would be getting heart palpitations and weird like gastrointestinal shooting pains in my left chest pec and light headiness.
When you change from sugar burner to fat burner heart palpation happen, eat more salt take potassium tablets once full fat burning heart palpations goes away
Hi Judy I pray that you notice and read my comment. Recently I went from a high fat Carnivore diet to extremely high fat. Basically from 82/18 to 87/13. My sleep got disrupted and poor. I went back to 82/18 but the sleep is still poor. Do you know why this is and how this can be solved?
