He needs to debate Dr. Ken Berry on fruit and honey because Berry is against honey and fruit as he believes it's just the same old insulin spiking crap.
I'm 73, a carnivore and eat once a day until I'm full. Most days, that's nowhere near the amount you suggest, still, I live with robust health; kicked cancer and type two diabetes to the curb eating meat, eggs and water. I think eating should be simple, like breathing - just do it without much thought.
Exactly, but you know, this world is run by money, they need to tell is this bullsh!t about 2 grams of protein per kg of weight and eating several times a day in order to make money, even with healthy foods. Humans really don't need to eat that much, just at the right time and the right foods.
@@GDurango11 Several meals a day raises C peptide levels, which eventually leads to insulin resistance. My dog eats one meal a day and so do I. Okay, my cows eat nonstop, but they weigh 1,200 pounds, but before they develop any diet-related issues, they're in a freezer!
Siwy, good job getting over your diabetes and cancer. I am happy that you are healthy. However, I just want to be honest with you. My guess is that you were eating a (standard American diet (SAD)). This diet is in the bottom 10% of diets in the world. Now you are on the carnivore diet which is in the bottom 1/3 rd of all diets. As a result, you have seen improvements in your energy level and your blood sugars have stabilized since you most likely eat very little carbs. However, the saturated and trans fats in meat are high and are most likely going to become a large issue for you in the future. I would suggest that you switch out of this diet to a whole food plant-based diet. This diet has many benefits and would be happy to discuss them more with you. Please look at this video from Milton Mills if you want more reasons why a carnivore diet is not what you are supposed to be eating. ua-cam.com/video/NMN1Zo_c7_A/v-deo.html
@@jasontaylor500 I'd be happy to investigate your clinical datum as regards your claims. That said, I was allergy tested and out of 103 known plant and animal toxins, I was violently allergic to 96, mostly plant allergens, mildly allergic to the remaining and not allergic to some tree, which grows in northern China. Plants and plant-based doesn't work for me. It may interest you to know, a good friend, a vegan for life, had amylochondliosus, a cancer in his lungs, which will kill him. It is directly csused by the lack of dietary animal protein.
@@jasontaylor500 Pass You apparently have me confused with someone else. I don't even know how to send a link and besides, posting a link to a third party would be rude, using someone else's platform to lead traffic away.
Hey Paul. Recently read your book "The Carnivore Code ". I'm 6'1 and just over 13 years ago I was up to 265 lbs. I'm now 158. Stayed around 197 for many years. I credit your book for becoming so slim. I'm 61 Y/O and I'm in the trucking business. Just 5 months ago I put a Crock Pot in my truck. I never eat before 11 am or after 5 pm. I eat Deer and Elk, I buy at Sprouts or Natural Grocers, that comes from NZ. Also eats lots of Beef Hearts and Liver. Have tried Kidneys a couple of times and Ox Tail. I still consume Miso, Sauerkraut, and Macadamians. Not much on fruit Blueberries occasionally. Monk fruit sweetener only, and after consuming Honey for many years I now prefer Maple syrup. Also after reading your book I dropped Himalayan salt and switched to Redmond Real.
Incredible. I don't meet many truckers that are that thin and especially at your age. Well done, sir, well done. I'm 26, deliver packages for a living and last weighed myself at 180. Only 5'10 so you put me to shame, haha.
@@Mavvyd96 Thanks for the compliment. I do the TRE everyday. I also do quite a few 46 hour fast. If everyone would discipline themselves more we could have a lot less obesity and diseases.
@@omgitssome1 I think Himalayan salt and the Real Redmond are quite similar. Both are ancient sea salts. One difference is that Himalayan has to travel halfway around the world from Pakistan to reach the United States, whereas Real Redmond is mined right here in the USA in southern Utah. I have also read recently that Himalayan salt might sometimes be mixed with other salts. Haven't heard of anyone tampering with Real Redmond, at least not yet ?
I am not sure if we actually have to find out what "works for us". if you are intolerant to foods like fruit, honey, etc, I think the solution begins with first realizing that 1. You're intolerant to that food and 2. That it's probably fixable (how?) because in many cases like this, it is seen that even when you exclude fruit and etc, limited only to the most primal part of our diet: Meat AND Organ meats. It is seen that when you do it long enough, then your body is able to handle Fruit, Honey, and of all quite well. For how long or if it's a long-term effect, I don't know. But doing so, adding in the Fruit, Honey, and Dairy (i guess), slowly.
the hazdas exercised a lot like 4 hrs or running daily so maybe they can metabolise the amount of carbs they consume easily but this may not be possible for most people now.
@@carnivorepolice5-0 I'm not sure where you are going with your comment, extra movement will add value to anyone's life, and a lack of movement will cause you problems in the long run.
@@carnivorepolice5-0 I don't think anyone here would disagree with the importance of diet, but movement is valuable too. Also, I'd hardly call adding some whole fruit to one's diet "eating like shit" lmao
Dr Saladino living the life! Living the dream. Thank you for posting, thank you for the reminder not to live in fear: eat the ancestral way to satiation and let the body get its nutrition.
I thought you were carnivore until I seen the fruit and honey. I'm sticking to just meat, like Eddie Murphy said on Beverly Hills Cop, I'm not falling for the banana in the tail pipe 😆
This looks like a serious breakfast. Big difference between cheap honey and raw honey. Been watching you a lot recently really keen to give this a go for at least a month
Great viewing Paul. Your lifestyle is enviable. Living in UK with supermarkets and fast food outlets on every street corner, I think your overall message is EAT UNPROCESSED as much as you can - thanks 🙏
That’s because they want you unhealthy, sedentary and dead at an early age all the while profiting off your sickness through medical bills and big Pharma. It’s nothing but a racket. Pre-designed. Great business model though.
Well that is Paul's N=1. My N=1 is that I moved to Hawaii after being carnivore for two years and started eating just like that for three years. I gained weight and the cancer that I had beaten 10 years ago came back again for a recurrence. Just because it is "natural" and "locally sourced" doesn't make it good for you. IMO, there is a big difference between having a few berries now and then and diving face first into 200 carb grams of tropical fruits and honey a day.
from the islands had to move away but when I live on Lanai we used to hunt fish daily used to eat some strawberry guava when we go hunting as a snack as we would be out all day with just water I am more that is OK as you are using it kinda agree sitting down eating every day ? but he is always testing trying :) I miss the islands since my home had to move away in my 40s :)
True. Different strokes. I can guzzle honey constantly without weight gain these days, that wasn't always the case. Some people are better off sticking to proteins and fats
I have a few questions 1) Did our ancestors have access to fruits and honey with every meal? 2) Do the fruits have any toxins? 3) How much fruit is too much? 4) Can we include fruits in breakfast? Thanks in advance :)
I was on all sorts of OTCs and miserable. Now I eat red meat, dairy, and fruit and honey and suddenly I feel stronger than I did for years. Non animal based oils made my gut tear itself up, literally, but now my gut feels good almost every day. Thank you doc!
Hey did you have any stomach discomfort with starting this diet at all?? Just starting and I love it and how it makes me feel, low cravings but jus some stomach discomfort when it comes to I think mostly the fruit part maybe? Any insight or advice helps thank you!
I came to this lifestyle like Paul, a recovering vegan. I had shredded my gut and developed SIBO and hypothyroidism. It takes time and patience but your stomach will normalize just keep eating the fruits etc.. and you’ll become more acclimated that’s what I’ve experienced.
Hi Paul, with all due respect, you're a young guy, very active, and your metabolism can handle the sugars from fruit and honey. As we age, our metabolism slows, we have less tolerance for carbs in general, and if we're in tune with our bodies and health, we adjust to dial back or eliminate these things. Having eaten lchf for many years (decades), I've discovered my "set-points" where I have started to gain weight, or my energy and vitality has declined. My suggestion to you would be to include the message that the way we eat and the way our bodies respond to various nutrients changes with age. When I was your age, I could eat anything and be filled with energy, but I'll be 68 in November, and I've learned to adjust what I eat to get the energy response I want and need, and to maintain my weight so that I can run the ridges and still bow hunt elk with my young hunting partners. Please consider including some guidance for those of us in different age groups so that people will understand that fruit and honey are not for everyone at every age in their lives. I want you to know how much I learned from your book, and I value your contributions. With that said, me and my bird dog will be out chasing Hungarian Partridge and Sage Grouse this morning, putting in our miles, and avoiding big old rattle snakes. Peace Brother...
I disagree. I ate keto for like 2 years. It was great. However, I see absolutely no reason to restrict fruits. A lot of advocates of keto and carnivore have gone to extremes with this issue of insulin. Nobody said you have to eat outrageous amounts of fruit. I typically eat around 80 grams of carbohydrates a day. I think most people can handle a few pieces of fruit each day and a couple of cups of raw milk if they are not allergic to dairy. I do not see any logical reason not to. However, people have developed this obsession with constantly being in a state of ketosis.
yes, would like to see someone from the prometabolic community who follows ray peat dietary advice aswell. Which is basically what paul is doing atm with the high sugar, lower fat, high protein.
Bart Kay's probably more knowledgeable on the molecular level so it would be interesting to hear him shed some new light on the matter in a live debate
Dr. Saladino, would love to see more of these typea of videos - grocery hauls, what you eat in a day, how you prepare the food etc. I have just started an Animal Based diet two days ago, after being Vegan and then Vegetarian for a combined 7 years. More of these vidoes would be great to give me more ideas for variety of meats. Heading to local butcher soon to get a big haul of organs, wish me luck! Will give an update in a month! Cheers from Australia.
Hi Dr. Saladino. I recently healed myself from a stage 3 colon cancer with fasting and a keto/carnivore diet. Watching this video, I was wondering about adding raw Manuka honey into my diet. My instinct has been telling me for days now to have honey but because I don’t want the cancer to come back, I’m hesitant in using that much sugar. Would you mind to share your thoughts? Thank you so much
@@cesarhernandez7108 : That was my theory when I started my healing journey, but Dr. Saladino (who answered me privately) doesn't think that fruits (in their full nutritional matrix) and raw honey are a risk and feed tumors. He thinks only non-evolutionary consistent foods do...
No, don't do it. Just keep in mind, the only carb u can eat are the ones that provides calories above your daily metabolic rate. Say, you're doing something out of the blue, like an intense hike up the mountains, then sure take some carbs that equate to the energy burnt and no more than that. Carbs to me is like active fuel; it should never have a part in basic daily needs.
Remember Paul lives an active lifestyle He has build up to this He can handle the carbs Many of us in the beginning may just have to do meat and organ only After we have build up our lifestyle Then perhaps he can handle the carbs from honey and fruit Title is what he eats as of the making the video Later he adds rice Again in the beginning we may need beef organ supplements and depending on what weight you want to be at, is how much protein you intake along with fat Plus exercise
@The V word Nobody ate them until recently, because of overpopulation and extinction. Imagine eating monkeys and dogs if there were gigantic herds of bison and mammoths.
Yes, I really this style of video compared to your others! The information you shared about the fruit and honey with the meat, the fructose, etc, REALLY helped me, ended a lot of annoying conflicts! Thanks!!!
This is exactly what I wanna do. Move to Costa Rica for the winter. The fruit sucks here in Madison, Wisconsin. I only eat local organic when it’s in season. There’s slim pickings in the winter months. I believe that hunter gatherers only ate fruit when it was in season. Right? 😂 Thanks for uploading. I want that papaya.
In March 2022, I'll be 4yrs of eating this diet. I've never felt better, and I'll never switch to anything else. I literally LOVE everything I eat. Not only that, but I've never been on a 'diet' that I've enjoyed so much. I knew this was the right food when I was younger because that's all I ever wanted to eat on my plate was meat and fruit after the meat for dessert.
Do you give yourself a day once in a while, maybe once a month to eat cakes, candy, alcoholic drinks? I don't want to give it all up forever, and want to find a way to incorporate it into my life.
@@drenfreezy6614 I WAS strict like a crazy person for about 3 years. The last year I've eased way up and just learned to incorporate carbs into my diet. Was a smart addition for me because my workouts were suffering quite a bit. I's say about 85% of my calories are still 'carnivore'. Meats, organs, eggs, raw dairy, seafood.
@@andreas956 Absolutely. Unless you're doing the diet for a busted gut, or serious inflammation, then you should 100% incorporate those things for your mental sanity, imo. I don't drink, I prefer cannabis, but I am a cook/baker, so I indulge on my own supply once in a while.
Costa Rica looks amazing. Lucky to be able to split your time between there and Austin. I was in Austin a couple weeks back visiting friends and that was not a bad place either.
I’ve always been lean and muscular (10% body fat), but when I increased my fructose intake from one banana a day to a couple more pieces of fruit a day in conjunction to a tablespoon of honey, my ha1c started to approach the prediabetes scale. FYI- I’ve always been metabolically heathy, but I don’t think fructose is good for everybody, Paul. My hepatic function was also elevated too, but went back down to normal when I took away excess fructose. Like I said, I think everyone is different.
This is an interesting anecdote. Would like to hear Paul's thoughts on this. All I can think of personally is that your metabolism isn't oxidizing fast enough to clear glucose in the presence of a carnivorous meal (particularly higher fat I.e. ribeyes or bacon etc). Hope you find a solution! Edit: a la Randle Cycle 1968...
Depends how old you, as we age our insulin just doesn’t work as well. And do you think primitive man had access to fruit everyday? Doesn’t most fruit have a growing season?
I would like to hear Paul’s response, but I know he can’t med advice since I’m not his patient. I’ve heard many doctors argue that modern fruit has been hybridized for size and sugar content, which play a role in contributing to metabolic dysfunction. They also said that we’re designed to only eat in the warm season to put on weight for the winter. I can sort of concur with that based on my experiment
Your cells have so much lipids then. Fructose metabolize in the liver and turns to glucose like molekules and fat. It doesn’t spike insulin but glucose does. Your problem is not banana, your problem is lipids in your cells which interrupt insulin receptors. Meat is not human food, humans are frugivore. We don’t have large canine tooth, claws, strong acid production in stomach (That’s why people suffer from acid reflux, ulcers etc.) We should eat fruits, vegetables, seeds and nuts. Also vitamin B12 since it is produced by bacteria if you are consuming very steril foods and water.
Nice video Paul, a lot of talk though and good info but yet I'm still to see you eat anything you advocate or are passionate about eating like liver etc. Maybe a mukbang video would end any doubts :)
Been watching you a lot. Your message hits home. I do have a few questions though. 1. What is your understanding of the role of hormesis in nutrition and immune function? 2. Do you really not use any herbs and spices? And how long did it take before your palate adjusted to that? 3. How do you feel about fermented veggies such as kimchi?
Hi Doc ! One very important question that you don't talk about is : is it ok to mix carbs and fat at the same time ? Because you often talk about the fat that you eat (from suet, butter, bone marrow etc.), and here you show the carbs you consume from honey and fruits. But I've always heard that you shouldn't mix carbs and fat together since they are 2 different types of fuel and that it can LEAD TO A BUNCH OF HEALTH ISSUES... can you light my fire with this ? Thanks doc !
I think it depends . I would start by not combining the fruits and honey like he does. Keep it separate then as your body gets used to your added carbs , you may try combine them at this point. However I also think breaking your fast on fruit first is definitely key .
I’m really happy to hear we don’t need to worry about honey. I use to always put honey on all my meats for my whole life but stopped when I went “ketovore”. Time to go buy some raw honey. Yay!
@@kylebyrne2375 raw honey is filled with health benefits The processes honey that makes up 90% of the shelf in the supermarket has been pasteurized which removes all of the health benefits
I've been eating like this for a while now. One of the first what I eat in a day videos that I actually agree with. I drink raw milk though as well - but pretty much eat the same as this.
I too have access to raw A2 milk and local raw honey in addition to my meats. I’m gearing up to get back on track with my diet and I’ll be having ONLY meat, eggs, raw milk, some cheese, raw honey and local in season fruit. I do believe this is the optimal diet for someone in my latitude- Florida.
Hey did you have any stomach discomfort with starting this diet at all?? Just starting and I love it and how it makes me feel, low cravings but jus some stomach discomfort when it comes to I think mostly the fruit part maybe? Any insight or advice helps thank you!
150 to 200 grams of carbs a day? This kind of blows me away. Obviously you are ultra fit and active. You primary job is your health and fitness, where most of us have much more complicated lives. I am mid sixties, own a business, and do as much as I can to stay healthy. I am not out surfing in Costa Rica. No way will I eat that many carbs, no matter what the source or matrix. Eating low carb has been a game changer for me. I'm eating carnivore for a while to do a reset and drop a bit of weight. That has virtually eliminated my joint pain. Again, a big eye opener. Eventually I will reintroduce other things like a few berries, mushrooms, low inflammation vegetables etc. I appreciate the work you do. I have your book on order. I follow your podcasts and those of others. My position, honestly, is that I am just as competent at creating my own diet as any expert. Every single thing is recommended in one camp and demonized in the next, and all supported by studies. In some cases the claims swap back and forth. When I hear that a carnivore advocate is eating this many carbs, I just slump into my chair. I'm doubling down on avoiding processed food, wheat products, and excessive carbs. After that, I feel the best authority on what I need is my own body. Some things like jalapenos, you will have to pry from my cold dead fingers. I'll find a study to justify it. Try something,...listen,...repeat.
Brilliant comment David. I totally agree with you. I’m 65 diabetic in U.K…. No way would I eat that many carbs! No way can I have that kind of lifestyle or even afford a steak that thick! Just starting carnivore…. Let’s see what happens.
Great video!! Thanks for the upload Paul! Was curious as to whether you were concerned about combing fruit with meat in same meal so this explains it. Just wanted to add my own experience with a meat and fruit diet about 8 years ago as it may help some people. Felt incredibly cleansed and healthy and looked great. As I was training really hard doing bodybuilding/powerlifitng 6 days a week I noticed my sex drive went down significantly. One day I decided to have 1 cup of oats and got an instant hard on after weeks of struggling lol. One piece of advice I would offer to anyone training hard physically and may be experiencing symptoms of decreased libido is that you may benefit from a small amount of starchy carbs in your diet along with what Pauls eating. Something like white rice or sweet potato if you tolerate it. If you're feeling great then by all means don't change a thing! This diet is great. (Also need to mention that the meat I was eating was quite lean so definitely wasn't eating enough animal fat which also has a very positive effect on libido).Thanks again Paul
So i if I wanted to do carnivore I can still eat my bananas and apples and berries and some rice or sweet potatoes . And still be considered carnivore .
@@smoothwill Nope. You need to make sure that your body is carnivore adjusted in order to see the benefits and eat more carnivore meals with fat the more you work out.
@@stormspinner9000 Wrong. Nobody should "just do it anyway". Some people have health issues associated with carbs and have found healing through a carnivore diet. Just because you don't understand the carnivore diet, it doesn't mean that it's "dumb". Kids...🤦🏻♂️
@@Anatime714 so what do you say to all the doctors and nutrition people out there that’s been saying meat. Leads to all type of diseases and low t for men . Also that meat leads to all type of cancers and that plant base diet is the more optimum health diet .
Just goes to show. NEVER EVER follow anyone’s advice blindly. With huge respect for Paul I say that we are all different, living in different climates and may or may not have different health challenges? So much science thrown around also , but the tribes of the world are the true measure of success, but only for them. Not going to work for someone in the northern hemisphere I d say. The sun, and sea are a major contributor to health in my experience, the circadian rhythm also, getting hungry also are critical. Then to add further possible confusion, we change over a period of time, why I’m not sure , but I feel I do. Seasonally. So confusing. The best skills to learn are to feel and understand your own body. I’ve learnt so much from Paul 🙏🏼. But I’ve learnt equally from my own gut feeling/ instincts. Thanks
You look so healthy. What a testimony. Thanks for the video. Also, what if we've been insulin resistant? Is it still ok to eat honey? I'm working on reversing it by long (day 10 now) water fasting, but don't want to trigger it again after i start eating again. Would you address this?
I cured ED with keto in less than one year. Now I eat 50g carbs via fruit at night. Still hard 😀 My body was trashed! I was having all sort of probs before keto
@@marcusdavis2208Doesn't mean it's not dangerous. There is a reason nutrient rich and well balanced diet is the key. This carnivore vs herbivore circus is mind blowing... Same thing applies for low carb & high fat vs high carb & low fat.
Great video Paul , You are looking viral brother !!Are you certain tribes would have mixed foods like that ? I usually have my fruit before the meal and that satisfies me . But if it feels good and works then keep slaying . Side note I get so nauseous if I have the smallest amount of honey after and red meat , weird right !!?
To think that it all started with a little honey and some berries. Now a third of his plate (or more) is fruit. And some people still say sugar is not addictive? “But I feel better when I eat fruit!” Of course you do, it’s sugar! Coffee drinkers say the exact same thing. “I feel better with caffeine!”
I must say, that as a person suffering from chronic systemic candidiasis, it makes me quite jealous to see the carnivore king enjoying fruit and honey when even small amounts of those foods causes extreme pain in my body. You’re lucky if you can tolerate any carbohydrates at all. My quest for quality of life balance continues…
@@bra1nsen It can, theoretically. Mine has been an extremely bad case and very hard to get rid of. It's been going on for over a year. I don't have to be as strict on the diet as I once did, but I still have issues with it and may never be able to eat carbs normally again like I once did. It's a slippery slope.
@@arisonchan hi Allison ! I am suspecting that I may have this . How were you diagnosed ? Did you get a specific test done ? Basically my entire mouth is white , my skin flares , I have digestive issues , extremely dry feet, body pains, fatigue , etc.
Wow!! I just tried raw Wisconsin honey on my steak and it’s amazing. This is definitely a game changer. Thanks for your help and all the insight. I feel great and much better getting away from the American diet. I. Like fallowing you and Shawn Baker.
Doc you have a very informative and Interesting way of eating and I believe that we all should be eating like you doc. One thing that I can say about you is that you keep it simple and sweet and that's what I love about you. Diets don't have to be complicated. I've come across a lot of diet I it guru's so to speak, but I feel in my heart that you definitely are the real deal. Meat and fruit with honey are definitely the way to go and I eat like that and it makes me feel awesome. Keep being you and keep dropping that deep knowledge doc. You are awesome.
That's been awesome brother, Please walk us through the other meals of the day, the timing and if you are fasting or not, I really appreciate it, All the best An old carnivore friend
This is just an observation but Paul looks kind of like he is aging rapidly. He doesn't look as vivacious as he did to me a few years ago. I could be completely wrong but he just looks very different to me.
carbs and sugar age skin and cause wrinkles. they also can cause a redness. when i was doing keto and had some carbs, i was redder. carnivore, i am whiter. he may just spend too long in the sun. i know we need it, but too much.. you turn into a wrinkly hag. no disrespect, paul, intended or toward. i enjoy your content. i mean, he surfs, guys. so he might be redder and more wrinkle'y(forgive me, pauley) than other people. i'm just gonna stick to light tanning and exercising indoors.
This is great. It's so close to how I've naturally transitioned after reading carnivore code. I tried rice and my knees swelled up for weeks, so I'm getting my carbs from fruit and honey. I also love honey on steak. What is your view on mustard? Coffee?
Hello Dr.P. Saladino, , me and my hubby after we study between 3 months, your great-truthful informations on many videos concerning the nutritional style life, we become new subscribers and WE LOV You. Thank You Sir!
Do you include eggs and cheese or kefir in your diet? I started to eat no veggies , but meat and eggs and cheese, have included honey by seeing you as well. But in which video you talk about it or can you answer ? Thanks
Eating like this has changed my life. I have struggled so much and now finally feeling like my body is rejuvenating. C section belly disappearing, I said no way to a tummy tuck as I am not that kind of girl! I wanted to fix it myself! Paul your work makes so much sense to me and now as I practice these dietary changes I am happy to say I am finally getting my body back. I love love the fire starter! Thank you!
It will be interesting to see the evolution of your diet in the years to come. That banana is not evolutionarily consistent, but I appreciate the experiment. If you change your mind again, please explain your thoughts and experience in stead of sneakily pretending it's always been that way.
mega bananas, unlimited supply of honey, abundance of fruit. Seems like Paul can only sustain this by doing a lot of activity every day. for the average sedentary person that type of diet seems would cause weight gain. Though for high performance athletes (like paul) on a keto/ carnivore diet, adding in fruit for performance seems fine.
If you listen to his podcasts regularly, you'd have heard about why he has included fruit and honey. He's far from sneakily pretending it's always been that way. He has fully explained why all protein and fat wasn't ideal, a couple of years into pure carnivore. The fruit and honey has given him electrolytes, which he realised was the missing piece of the puzzle for feeling his best.
@@SincerityJ electrolytes can be found in the blood of the animals you eat and river water. 2 things which we dont eat but our ancestors did. So unless u wanna go drink blood and the river just take an electrolyte supplement; the one like Ken Berry suggests. Much better than mega fruit
He's not been sneaky about it, at all! It's well-explained in the podcast series. In fact, here's a video of Paul's discussing exactly that issue: ua-cam.com/video/1VsnQU7Q1jQ/v-deo.html
Great video. Would like to see you cook more meats etc, even if it's just chucking it in the grill lol. Friendly advice, lose the trashy music it was a bit much for my autistic brain to cope with haha. Too much going on and buzziness!
I have the same brain. 😖 Assuming you eat a carnivore diet, have you noticed it has helped with ASD related things like hypersensitivities, mood issues, etc? I seem to be more grounded and functional than ever before. Hallelujah!
@@carnivore-muscle How did you come to the carnivore diet? Had you heard anything about it helping with ASD? I heard it helped with mood disorders, so gave it a try.
I was reading somewhere that sardines in evoo are a good replacement from eating testicles been following alot of your stuff maybe honey garlic. I use alot of black peper i would like to see the video on tumeric and or tumerid
When frying a piece of meat in a frying pan and as it's close to being cooked I often put honey on it. I do this with vegetables sometimes too. When i see your videos and explanations I understand why i like honey with meat. This is probably why meat and sweet recipes are so liked such as Duck a la Orange, etc.
@@alexanderohanlon8825 i work better with just fat of the meat and carbs. When i was trying keto (for a year) everytime i added extra fat like suet id get the shits. I tried everything. Ate for months like that and always got the shits. If i add to much fat when cookjng (yes animal fats) ill get the shits. We need energy some how. Why not carbs. It would be interesting to hear his ideas on the randle cycle though!
@@steakovercake3986 you might have low gallbladder/bile output, thus can't emulsif the fat hence the trotts! Try bile salts, and if that works look at correcting your the issue if you can... Saying all that it might be your body just doesn't like the rendered fat and there's nothing up with your gallbladder/liver. Just out of curiosity what about butter?
he's doing this after surfing for hours. the randle cycle (eating carbs with fat) would lead to rapid restoration of glycogen, while the body uses fat for energy.
Some of us have a genetic predisposition to hemachromatosis. I found this out last year. Previous to being tested, I was practically carnivore and all this beef caused my ferritin levels to skyrocket to the point where the doctor thought I was an alcoholic. With dietary changes, (namely cutting back on the beef), supplementation with IP-6, Quercetin, among others, pairing meat with dairies like cheese and yogurt, I've been able to get my ferritin numbers down to the 80-90 range. There were 5 phlebotomies in there as well. Once I started consuming beef more than 2-3 X week, the ferritin rose again. What have I learned? I was advised once to eat all the beef I want and just get the phlebotomies, but since you can only do that every 6 weeks, I've learned you can't out run rising iron levels with blood letting. Or with yogurt, or cheese, or IP-6. It's imperative that I cut back on beef. So, I MUST incorporate more eggs (and I do not weep as I love eggs), chicken, fish, turkey and to a lesser extent, pork. I've also learned that consuming 1 gm of protein per lbs. of desired bodyweight does not work for me. I'm 200 lbs., 5'6", just turned 57. I've never weighed this much in my life. My bodyfat has never been this much and I cannot get under 190. The last time I did that was 4 years ago where I fluctuated between 175-188, depending on the season. I am sluggish. I have had the worst chronic fatigue I've ever experienced and the brain fog is brutal. The 40 minutes I spend in the gym beat me up. Any activities past noon- 1PM are usually out of the question. Energy wise I am spent. I've done better with my protein levels down around 120-130 with a macro distribution that more or less resembles Barry Sears' Zone Diet.
My Father had this as did his Father. I have one gene mutation and considered less likely to have an issue in the future. However, my last bloodwork did have my ferritin high (post hysterectomy FYI). I too need to watch my beef intake somewhat. I’m happy you figured this out since it can be dangerous. Thanks for sharing.
I have the same thing but raw beef doesn't cause hemachromatosis. verified by many on primal diet. Something about the cooked iron is fired like clay and rusts in the body. works for me
@@daniellem1838 I have a question. Are you of Eastern European descent? I am Lithuanian with a bit of Polish and Russian on my mother's side. Her father had tremendous bouts with depression and alcoholism. Genetically, that part of the world is susceptible to Hemachromatosis and I think he passed that gene on to me though my mom. I've gotten books on how to cook for hemachromatosis but there are too many sugars, grains and carbs in it for my liking.
@@rolandsharp I've never heard that. My hematologist encourages me to eat beef just not the amounts I consumed full carnivore or what Paul recommends in the video. How well it is cooked is something I will ask him about when I see him in a few weeks. Thank you for the tip.
Hello Paul ; the Fruit and Meat together does it overload the digestive system or is it just temporary like becuz of sibo or something ? Gratefull for your Answer
How often do you think our ancestors hunting around glaciers could find papaya? Even in African jungle there is no fruit growing on trees. You will be lucky to find honey once or 2ice a year. We evolved eating meat. Meat is our human species appropriate diet.
This is what I’m saying!! He was so against it. And all of a sudden it’s all okay! I followed this guy to a T and now everything he taught went out the window.
So based on your The Carnivore Code (which I own in the Audible audiobook version), I thought most carbohydrate containing foods were against protocol or actually contraindicated on the diet. Your way of eating now is very different. Would definitely hope for an update based on your experience, and other research, rather than a new book to buy on ‘how I lost 20lbs and regained my health’…
What are your thoughts on fermentation of vegetables? I heard that removes most of the toxins, including oxalates, and effectively ADDS nutrients like b-vitamins.
I love to eat hot spices , which I heard were good for you, like chiles, jalapeños. Are you saying it’s a no-no? Thanks for the info , I just ordered 2 of your products.
I have been eating mainly raw meat + raw fat (30% from meat weight) + fruit and tubers (around 100 grams of carbs daily) for almost a year (I live in the middle east). My blood tests were amazing. I still kept the high HDL and low triglycerides that I had on a paleolithic ketogenic diet. My HbA1c is low, insulin and c-peptide also low. No inflammation. Feel more energetic, my thyroid, kidney and liver tests are better than on keto. Overall, I am happy with the results.
@@Melina-ld6oq You will have to experiment. But I try to add only seasonal, local and organic fruit. In addition, I try to eat the fruit that was around for at least a few generations (I am from the Middle East) in my region like watermelons, oranges, grapes, etc.
You say that it’s not evolutionarily inconsistent to eat all that fruit. But you aren’t from Costa Rica. Where were your ancient ancestors getting all that fruit from?
Also, that fruit has been bred to be way sweeter than anything our ancestors would have eaten. Ever seen a wild banana? It is all seeds and tough fibers inside, very little sweet mush.
i love that you going outside of the box. i wish everyone would try all the variety of the diets so they can see whats the difference on their own body. many years GI issue and doctors said U R ALL GOOD :O before no balanced diet at all.. tried vegetarian, not bad but not optimal, tried vegan - not bad but the money i spent for all gmo free and whatever-free, nuts.. so much.. tried keto.. felt better but still not optimal + was doing fasting (not the greatest idea when i was like a slimshady :) ) then vegan keto.. was fun, tasty of course but the money i had to spend for extra special ultra whatever oils and whatnots cost me huuuuge amount of money, it's basically not sustainable unless i work just for food O:) later carnivore - only steaks... got much better for most of the problems but again :D skinny as hell :D then carnivore with organs.. much much better... but u get crazy with the same taste... then i just used some carbs.. and feel optimal. finally :O what a journey :O
Hey Paul Thanks for introducing me to carnivore. My kids love to dip their meat in local honey instead of ketchup. I was wondering if you could do a podcast about Costa Rica? I’m from Canada and every province is implementing CV passports. I’m considering relocating. Is Costa Rica Free?
My kids do this as well! I also allow it with maple syrup locally, though I’m pretty sure it’s not as ‘healthy’. As long as they enjoy their meat I’m happy! Good luck on relocating! We are feeling the pressures as well and have just sold our home in Minnesota to travel in an RV until we find somewhere safe/sane to settle roots down again. Costa Rica does look beautiful, though I heard a friend say recently that they would never travel there again. They didn’t elaborate on why but now I’m curious…
I've read some stuff about the Costa Rico rona guidelines recently. They are very strict. I don't see how Paul lives there and travels back and fourth to the US without having the vaccine honestly.
@@A_U83 I think they genuinely resent the fact that he seems to be lean and healthy while eating some carbohydrates. And, moreover, that certain aspects of his health improved while doing so.
Dr Saladino, thank you so much for this update. I am also on the side of balanced. I left your channel months ago after a 60 days by the book pure carnivore, organs (raw liver) 100% grass finish etc etc. I felt miserable after 4 weeks but i did push to the full 8 weeks. It was tolerable, just no way it was a good life experience. After studying continuous glucose meters, I now know some like you will thrive on a 150ish grams of carbs while other will be ok in the 50 to 80g. The real answer is in the our genetic code, most importantly polymorphies. So thank you for making me understand that I did good following my instinct going back adding some oranges and most importantly, totally breaking the ketones production 2 or 3 times a month with some clean carbs.
As a dentist I'm really curious how your dental caries situation is eating all that honey (which is 99.9% glucose and fructose). Love to see you post current bite wings of your teeth.
Im eating mainly meat and veggies! Then a bit of fruit if need something sweet,, I love my steak lol and eggs ......how do you cook your hearts? Not sure how to cook them just new to eating meat lol but im loving it........

@The V word Ken just thinks that it’s fructose and the fructose from a glazed donut is no different than an ol orange.

I'm 73, a carnivore and eat once a day until I'm full. Most days, that's nowhere near the amount you suggest, still, I live with robust health; kicked cancer and type two diabetes to the curb eating meat, eggs and water. I think eating should be simple, like breathing - just do it without much thought.
Exactly, but you know, this world is run by money, they need to tell is this bullsh!t about 2 grams of protein per kg of weight and eating several times a day in order to make money, even with healthy foods. Humans really don't need to eat that much, just at the right time and the right foods.
@@GDurango11 Several meals a day raises C peptide levels, which eventually leads to insulin resistance. My dog eats one meal a day and so do I. Okay, my cows eat nonstop, but they weigh 1,200 pounds, but before they develop any diet-related issues, they're in a freezer!
Siwy, good job getting over your diabetes and cancer. I am happy that you are healthy. However, I just want to be honest with you. My guess is that you were eating a (standard American diet (SAD)). This diet is in the bottom 10% of diets in the world. Now you are on the carnivore diet which is in the bottom 1/3 rd of all diets. As a result, you have seen improvements in your energy level and your blood sugars have stabilized since you most likely eat very little carbs. However, the saturated and trans fats in meat are high and are most likely going to become a large issue for you in the future. I would suggest that you switch out of this diet to a whole food plant-based diet. This diet has many benefits and would be happy to discuss them more with you. Please look at this video from Milton Mills if you want more reasons why a carnivore diet is not what you are supposed to be eating. ua-cam.com/video/NMN1Zo_c7_A/v-deo.html
@@jasontaylor500 I'd be happy to investigate your clinical datum as regards your claims. That said, I was allergy tested and out of 103 known plant and animal toxins, I was violently allergic to 96, mostly plant allergens, mildly allergic to the remaining and not allergic to some tree, which grows in northern China.

Hey Paul.
Recently read your book "The Carnivore Code ". I'm 6'1 and just over 13 years ago I was up to 265 lbs. I'm now 158. Stayed around 197 for many years. I credit your book for becoming so slim. I'm 61 Y/O and I'm in the trucking business. Just 5 months ago I put a Crock Pot in my truck. I never eat before 11 am or after 5 pm. I eat Deer and Elk, I buy at Sprouts or Natural Grocers, that comes from NZ. Also eats lots of Beef Hearts and Liver. Have tried Kidneys a couple of times and Ox Tail. I still consume Miso, Sauerkraut, and Macadamians. Not much on fruit Blueberries occasionally. Monk fruit sweetener only, and after consuming Honey for many years I now prefer Maple syrup. Also after reading your book I dropped Himalayan salt and switched to Redmond Real.
Incredible. I don't meet many truckers that are that thin and especially at your age. Well done, sir, well done. I'm 26, deliver packages for a living and last weighed myself at 180. Only 5'10 so you put me to shame, haha.

why did you ditch the Himalayan salt ?
@@omgitssome1
I think Himalayan salt and the Real Redmond are quite similar. Both are ancient sea salts. One difference is that Himalayan has to travel halfway around the world from Pakistan to reach the United States, whereas Real Redmond is mined right here in the USA in southern Utah. I have also read recently that Himalayan salt might sometimes be mixed with other salts. Haven't heard of anyone tampering with Real Redmond, at least not yet ?
I appreciate that you’re not demonizing fruit. In the end we all have to decide for ourselves what works for our bodies and what doesn’t!
He had to reintroduce fruit in his diet, because total carnivore makes you constipated.
I am not sure if we actually have to find out what "works for us". if you are intolerant to foods like fruit, honey, etc, I think the solution begins with first realizing that 1. You're intolerant to that food and 2. That it's probably fixable (how?) because in many cases like this, it is seen that even when you exclude fruit and etc, limited only to the most primal part of our diet: Meat AND Organ meats. It is seen that when you do it long enough, then your body is able to handle Fruit, Honey, and of all quite well. For how long or if it's a long-term effect, I don't know. But doing so, adding in the Fruit, Honey, and Dairy (i guess), slowly.
the hazdas exercised a lot like 4 hrs or running daily so maybe they can metabolise the amount of carbs they consume easily but this may not be possible for most people now.

Dr Saladino living the life! Living the dream. Thank you for posting, thank you for the reminder not to live in fear: eat the ancestral way to satiation and let the body get its nutrition.
Paul found a videographer! That's what's up! Good stuff, thanks!
I thought you were carnivore until I seen the fruit and honey. I'm sticking to just meat, like Eddie Murphy said on Beverly Hills Cop, I'm not falling for the banana in the tail pipe 😆
This looks like a serious breakfast. Big difference between cheap honey and raw honey. Been watching you a lot recently really keen to give this a go for at least a month
Great viewing Paul. Your lifestyle is enviable. Living in UK with supermarkets and fast food outlets on every street corner, I think your overall message is EAT UNPROCESSED as much as you can - thanks 🙏
That’s because they want you unhealthy, sedentary and dead at an early age all the while profiting off your sickness through medical bills and big Pharma. It’s nothing but a racket. Pre-designed. Great business model though.
Well that is Paul's N=1. My N=1 is that I moved to Hawaii after being carnivore for two years and started eating just like that for three years. I gained weight and the cancer that I had beaten 10 years ago came back again for a recurrence.
Just because it is "natural" and "locally sourced" doesn't make it good for you. IMO, there is a big difference between having a few berries now and then and diving face first into 200 carb grams of tropical fruits and honey a day.
from the islands had to move away but when I live on Lanai we used to hunt fish daily used to eat some strawberry guava when we go hunting as a snack as we would be out all day with just water I am more that is OK as you are using it kinda agree sitting down eating every day ? but he is always testing trying :) I miss the islands since my home had to move away in my 40s :)
Why do you quit on carnivore?
The fruits hes eating dont seem to be wild fruit either
I was just thinking his belly looks a little pudgy compared to when he was strictly Carnivore.
True. Different strokes. I can guzzle honey constantly without weight gain these days, that wasn't always the case. Some people are better off sticking to proteins and fats
I have a few questions
1) Did our ancestors have access to fruits and honey with every meal?
2) Do the fruits have any toxins?
3) How much fruit is too much?
4) Can we include fruits in breakfast?
Thanks in advance :)
I was on all sorts of OTCs and miserable. Now I eat red meat, dairy, and fruit and honey and suddenly I feel stronger than I did for years. Non animal based oils made my gut tear itself up, literally, but now my gut feels good almost every day. Thank you doc!
Dairy?
@@crunkin1t590 nope, I still drink milk on the daily but no issues whatsoever
Hey did you have any stomach discomfort with starting this diet at all?? Just starting and I love it and how it makes me feel, low cravings but jus some stomach discomfort when it comes to I think mostly the fruit part maybe? Any insight or advice helps thank you!
I came to this lifestyle like Paul, a recovering vegan. I had shredded my gut and developed SIBO and hypothyroidism. It takes time and patience but your stomach will normalize just keep eating the fruits etc.. and you’ll become more acclimated that’s what I’ve experienced.
I had some discomfort too
Great video! I was going keto but always missed fruits and honey. I am so happy this is a healthy add on. Much love 💕
Thanks Paul! I love seeing the latest tweaks to your diet! Keep up the great work!
Hi Paul, with all due respect, you're a young guy, very active, and your metabolism can handle the sugars from fruit and honey. As we age, our metabolism slows, we have less tolerance for carbs in general, and if we're in tune with our bodies and health, we adjust to dial back or eliminate these things. Having eaten lchf for many years (decades), I've discovered my "set-points" where I have started to gain weight, or my energy and vitality has declined. My suggestion to you would be to include the message that the way we eat and the way our bodies respond to various nutrients changes with age. When I was your age, I could eat anything and be filled with energy, but I'll be 68 in November, and I've learned to adjust what I eat to get the energy response I want and need, and to maintain my weight so that I can run the ridges and still bow hunt elk with my young hunting partners. Please consider including some guidance for those of us in different age groups so that people will understand that fruit and honey are not for everyone at every age in their lives. I want you to know how much I learned from your book, and I value your contributions. With that said, me and my bird dog will be out chasing Hungarian Partridge and Sage Grouse this morning, putting in our miles, and avoiding big old rattle snakes. Peace Brother...
How old is he? I can't find his age listed anywhere
@@harley6182 I’d guess about 43
hard to trust a guy who never wears a shirt lol
Humans have been fine eating plenty of fruit for hundreds of thousands of years.
I disagree. I ate keto for like 2 years. It was great. However, I see absolutely no reason to restrict fruits. A lot of advocates of keto and carnivore have gone to extremes with this issue of insulin. Nobody said you have to eat outrageous amounts of fruit. I typically eat around 80 grams of carbohydrates a day. I think most people can handle a few pieces of fruit each day and a couple of cups of raw milk if they are not allergic to dairy. I do not see any logical reason not to. However, people have developed this obsession with constantly being in a state of ketosis.
Would love to see you debate Dr. Ken Berry on his recent videos and thoughts on Fruit and Honey

Hi Dr. Saladino.
I recently healed myself from a stage 3 colon cancer with fasting and a keto/carnivore diet. Watching this video, I was wondering about adding raw Manuka honey into my diet. My instinct has been telling me for days now to have honey but because I don’t want the cancer to come back, I’m hesitant in using that much sugar. Would you mind to share your thoughts? Thank you so much
Holy shit did u really
Fred, remember, cancer feeds on sugar.
@@vs.7295 😂. Yes, I did
@@cesarhernandez7108 : That was my theory when I started my healing journey, but Dr. Saladino (who answered me privately) doesn't think that fruits (in their full nutritional matrix) and raw honey are a risk and feed tumors. He thinks only non-evolutionary consistent foods do...
No, don't do it. Just keep in mind, the only carb u can eat are the ones that provides calories above your daily metabolic rate. Say, you're doing something out of the blue, like an intense hike up the mountains, then sure take some carbs that equate to the energy burnt and no more than that. Carbs to me is like active fuel; it should never have a part in basic daily needs.
Remember
Paul lives an active lifestyle
He has build up to this
He can handle the carbs
Many of us in the beginning may just have to do meat and organ only
After we have build up our lifestyle
Then perhaps he can handle the carbs from honey and fruit
Title is what he eats as of the making the video
Later he adds rice
Again in the beginning we may need beef organ supplements and depending on what weight you want to be at, is how much protein you intake along with fat
Plus exercise
Poor baboons. The Hazda are forced to eat them now because all the large animals have been overhunted and are now protected.

This is exactly what I wanna do.
Move to Costa Rica for the winter. The fruit sucks here in Madison, Wisconsin. I only eat local organic when it’s in season. There’s slim pickings in the winter months. I believe that hunter gatherers only ate fruit when it was in season. Right? 😂
Thanks for uploading. I want that papaya.
In March 2022, I'll be 4yrs of eating this diet. I've never felt better, and I'll never switch to anything else. I literally LOVE everything I eat. Not only that, but I've never been on a 'diet' that I've enjoyed so much. I knew this was the right food when I was younger because that's all I ever wanted to eat on my plate was meat and fruit after the meat for dessert.
Do you follow a strict carnivore diet, or do you incorporate some fruit and honey like Paul Saladino?
Do you give yourself a day once in a while, maybe once a month to eat cakes, candy, alcoholic drinks?
I don't want to give it all up forever, and want to find a way to incorporate it into my life.
@@drenfreezy6614 I WAS strict like a crazy person for about 3 years. The last year I've eased way up and just learned to incorporate carbs into my diet. Was a smart addition for me because my workouts were suffering quite a bit. I's say about 85% of my calories are still 'carnivore'. Meats, organs, eggs, raw dairy, seafood.
@@andreas956 Absolutely. Unless you're doing the diet for a busted gut, or serious inflammation, then you should 100% incorporate those things for your mental sanity, imo. I don't drink, I prefer cannabis, but I am a cook/baker, so I indulge on my own supply once in a while.
@@Nine7Three Thanks for your answer! Appreciate it.
Costa Rica looks amazing. Lucky to be able to split your time between there and Austin. I was in Austin a couple weeks back visiting friends and that was not a bad place either.
It's a liberal craphole now.
I’ve always been lean and muscular (10% body fat), but when I increased my fructose intake from one banana a day to a couple more pieces of fruit a day in conjunction to a tablespoon of honey, my ha1c started to approach the prediabetes scale. FYI- I’ve always been metabolically heathy, but I don’t think fructose is good for everybody, Paul. My hepatic function was also elevated too, but went back down to normal when I took away excess fructose. Like I said, I think everyone is different.
This is an interesting anecdote. Would like to hear Paul's thoughts on this. All I can think of personally is that your metabolism isn't oxidizing fast enough to clear glucose in the presence of a carnivorous meal (particularly higher fat I.e. ribeyes or bacon etc). Hope you find a solution!
Edit: a la Randle Cycle 1968...
Depends how old you, as we age our insulin just doesn’t work as well. And do you think primitive man had access to fruit everyday? Doesn’t most fruit have a growing season?
I would like to hear Paul’s response, but I know he can’t med advice since I’m not his patient. I’ve heard many doctors argue that modern fruit has been hybridized for size and sugar content, which play a role in contributing to metabolic dysfunction. They also said that we’re designed to only eat in the warm season to put on weight for the winter. I can sort of concur with that based on my experiment
Agreed. If you're in your 20-30s, not obese, you can have fruit maybe. I'm in my 50s, was obese in my 40, normal now. No fruit or honey for me.
Your cells have so much lipids then. Fructose metabolize in the liver and turns to glucose like molekules and fat. It doesn’t spike insulin but glucose does. Your problem is not banana, your problem is lipids in your cells which interrupt insulin receptors. Meat is not human food, humans are frugivore. We don’t have large canine tooth, claws, strong acid production in stomach (That’s why people suffer from acid reflux, ulcers etc.) We should eat fruits, vegetables, seeds and nuts. Also vitamin B12 since it is produced by bacteria if you are consuming very steril foods and water.
Nice video Paul, a lot of talk though and good info but yet I'm still to see you eat anything you advocate or are passionate about eating like liver etc. Maybe a mukbang video would end any doubts :)
Been watching you a lot. Your message hits home. I do have a few questions though.
1. What is your understanding of the role of hormesis in nutrition and immune function?
2. Do you really not use any herbs and spices? And how long did it take before your palate adjusted to that?
3. How do you feel about fermented veggies such as kimchi?
This dude is badass ! I’m trying to eat like this for the rest of my life . I just started last week 💪🏽
Hi Doc ! One very important question that you don't talk about is : is it ok to mix carbs and fat at the same time ? Because you often talk about the fat that you eat (from suet, butter, bone marrow etc.), and here you show the carbs you consume from honey and fruits. But I've always heard that you shouldn't mix carbs and fat together since they are 2 different types of fuel and that it can LEAD TO A BUNCH OF HEALTH ISSUES... can you light my fire with this ? Thanks doc !
Yup, same question here.
Of course you can
I think it depends . I would start by not combining the fruits and honey like he does. Keep it separate then as your body gets used to your added carbs , you may try combine them at this point. However I also think breaking your fast on fruit first is definitely key .
I’m really happy to hear we don’t need to worry about honey. I use to always put honey on all my meats for my whole life but stopped when I went “ketovore”. Time to go buy some raw honey. Yay!

I'd like to know that too. I'm assuming it's a no. If it matters, though, Liver King consumes it. Experiment and see if it works for you!
150 to 200 grams of carbs a day? This kind of blows me away. Obviously you are ultra fit and active. You primary job is your health and fitness, where most of us have much more complicated lives. I am mid sixties, own a business, and do as much as I can to stay healthy. I am not out surfing in Costa Rica. No way will I eat that many carbs, no matter what the source or matrix. Eating low carb has been a game changer for me. I'm eating carnivore for a while to do a reset and drop a bit of weight. That has virtually eliminated my joint pain. Again, a big eye opener. Eventually I will reintroduce other things like a few berries, mushrooms, low inflammation vegetables etc. I appreciate the work you do. I have your book on order. I follow your podcasts and those of others. My position, honestly, is that I am just as competent at creating my own diet as any expert. Every single thing is recommended in one camp and demonized in the next, and all supported by studies. In some cases the claims swap back and forth. When I hear that a carnivore advocate is eating this many carbs, I just slump into my chair.
I'm doubling down on avoiding processed food, wheat products, and excessive carbs. After that, I feel the best authority on what I need is my own body. Some things like jalapenos, you will have to pry from my cold dead fingers. I'll find a study to justify it. Try something,...listen,...repeat.
Brilliant comment David. I totally agree with you. I’m 65 diabetic in U.K…. No way would I eat that many carbs! No way can I have that kind of lifestyle or even afford a steak that thick! Just starting carnivore…. Let’s see what happens.
Great video!! Thanks for the upload Paul! Was curious as to whether you were concerned about combing fruit with meat in same meal so this explains it. Just wanted to add my own experience with a meat and fruit diet about 8 years ago as it may help some people. Felt incredibly cleansed and healthy and looked great. As I was training really hard doing bodybuilding/powerlifitng 6 days a week I noticed my sex drive went down significantly. One day I decided to have 1 cup of oats and got an instant hard on after weeks of struggling lol. One piece of advice I would offer to anyone training hard physically and may be experiencing symptoms of decreased libido is that you may benefit from a small amount of starchy carbs in your diet along with what Pauls eating. Something like white rice or sweet potato if you tolerate it. If you're feeling great then by all means don't change a thing! This diet is great. (Also need to mention that the meat I was eating was quite lean so definitely wasn't eating enough animal fat which also has a very positive effect on libido).Thanks again Paul
So i if I wanted to do carnivore I can still eat my bananas and apples and berries and some rice or sweet potatoes . And still be considered carnivore .
@@smoothwill no but you should do so anyways. Carnivore is a stupid ass diet
@@smoothwill Nope. You need to make sure that your body is carnivore adjusted in order to see the benefits and eat more carnivore meals with fat the more you work out.
@@stormspinner9000 Wrong. Nobody should "just do it anyway". Some people have health issues associated with carbs and have found healing through a carnivore diet. Just because you don't understand the carnivore diet, it doesn't mean that it's "dumb". Kids...🤦🏻♂️
@@Anatime714 so what do you say to all the doctors and nutrition people out there that’s been saying meat. Leads to all type of diseases and low t for men . Also that meat leads to all type of cancers and that plant base diet is the more optimum health diet .
Just goes to show. NEVER EVER follow anyone’s advice blindly. With huge respect for Paul I say that we are all different, living in different climates and may or may not have different health challenges?
So much science thrown around also , but the tribes of the world are the true measure of success, but only for them. Not going to work for someone in the northern hemisphere I d say.
The sun, and sea are a major contributor to health in my experience, the circadian rhythm also, getting hungry also are critical. Then to add further possible confusion, we change over a period of time, why I’m not sure , but I feel I do. Seasonally. So confusing.
The best skills to learn are to feel and understand your own body.
I’ve learnt so much from Paul 🙏🏼.
But I’ve learnt equally from my own gut feeling/ instincts.
Thanks
Exactly this! ❤️
You look so healthy. What a testimony. Thanks for the video.
Also, what if we've been insulin resistant? Is it still ok to eat honey? I'm working on reversing it by long (day 10 now) water fasting, but don't want to trigger it again after i start eating again. Would you address this?
I cured ED with keto in less than one year. Now I eat 50g carbs via fruit at night. Still hard 😀 My body was trashed! I was having all sort of probs before keto
@@Joe-kt7zp keto is dangerous long term you clown
@@thelion2087 5 years and going strong fool
@@marcusdavis2208Doesn't mean it's not dangerous. There is a reason nutrient rich and well balanced diet is the key. This carnivore vs herbivore circus is mind blowing... Same thing applies for low carb & high fat vs high carb & low fat.
@@unknownorigin8446 thanks for the tip
Great video Paul , You are looking viral brother !!Are you certain tribes would have mixed foods like that ? I usually have my fruit before the meal and that satisfies me . But if it feels good and works then keep slaying .
Side note I get so nauseous if I have the smallest amount of honey after and red meat , weird right !!?
Can't argue with logic / rationality. This guy is decades ahead of his time.
To think that it all started with a little honey and some berries. Now a third of his plate (or more) is fruit. And some people still say sugar is not addictive? “But I feel better when I eat fruit!” Of course you do, it’s sugar! Coffee drinkers say the exact same thing. “I feel better with caffeine!”
I must say, that as a person suffering from chronic systemic candidiasis, it makes me quite jealous to see the carnivore king enjoying fruit and honey when even small amounts of those foods causes extreme pain in my body. You’re lucky if you can tolerate any carbohydrates at all. My quest for quality of life balance continues…
how are you doing now?
idc
Candida cant be healed?
@@bra1nsen It can, theoretically. Mine has been an extremely bad case and very hard to get rid of. It's been going on for over a year. I don't have to be as strict on the diet as I once did, but I still have issues with it and may never be able to eat carbs normally again like I once did. It's a slippery slope.
@@arisonchan hi Allison ! I am suspecting that I may have this . How were you diagnosed ? Did you get a specific test done ? Basically my entire mouth is white , my skin flares , I have digestive issues , extremely dry feet, body pains, fatigue , etc.
Wow!! I just tried raw Wisconsin honey on my steak and it’s amazing. This is definitely a game changer. Thanks for your help and all the insight. I feel great and much better getting away from the American diet. I. Like fallowing you and Shawn Baker.
Great video Paul! What kind of grill are you using?
Doc you have a very informative and Interesting way of eating and I believe that we all should be eating like you doc. One thing that I can say about you is that you keep it simple and sweet and that's what I love about you. Diets don't have to be complicated. I've come across a lot of diet I it guru's so to speak, but I feel in my heart that you definitely are the real deal. Meat and fruit with honey are definitely the way to go and I eat like that and it makes me feel awesome. Keep being you and keep dropping that deep knowledge doc. You are awesome.
That's been awesome brother,
Please walk us through the other meals of the day, the timing and if you are fasting or not,
I really appreciate it,
All the best
An old carnivore friend
This is just an observation but Paul looks kind of like he is aging rapidly. He doesn't look as vivacious as he did to me a few years ago. I could be completely wrong but he just looks very different to me.
carbs and sugar age skin and cause wrinkles. they also can cause a redness. when i was doing keto and had some carbs, i was redder. carnivore, i am whiter.
he may just spend too long in the sun. i know we need it, but too much.. you turn into a wrinkly hag. no disrespect, paul, intended or toward. i enjoy your content.
i mean, he surfs, guys. so he might be redder and more wrinkle'y(forgive me, pauley) than other people.
i'm just gonna stick to light tanning and exercising indoors.
@@AdayDr1en it makes sense!
Can't see what Ur seeing. His skin looks young and smooth and free of wrinkles
@@karenwall8643 all good! I guess he just looks different from previous videos that I have watched over the years from him❤️
I thought so too that he looked different. Tanned - yes, but something else has changed. Not that sharp in the face anymore
This is great. It's so close to how I've naturally transitioned after reading carnivore code. I tried rice and my knees swelled up for weeks, so I'm getting my carbs from fruit and honey. I also love honey on steak. What is your view on mustard? Coffee?
I think he doesn’t drink/recommend coffee. Mustard-> the seeds not ok, as he say about turmeric too
coffee is also a "bean", so it's probably better to avoid it
Hello Dr.P. Saladino, , me and my hubby after we study between 3 months, your great-truthful informations on many videos concerning the nutritional style life, we become new subscribers and WE LOV You. Thank You Sir!
Do you include eggs and cheese or kefir in your diet? I started to eat no veggies , but meat and eggs and cheese, have included honey by seeing you as well. But in which video you talk about it or can you answer ? Thanks
Do you still eat suet? If so how much?
Eating like this has changed my life. I have struggled so much and now finally feeling like my body is rejuvenating. C section belly disappearing, I said no way to a tummy tuck as I am not that kind of girl! I wanted to fix it myself! Paul your work makes so much sense to me and now as I practice these dietary changes I am happy to say I am finally getting my body back. I love love the fire starter! Thank you!
Wow, that's amazing. What do u think is the reason your C belly is disappearing?
smh....
another false anecdotal testimony.
Paul you've previously had eczema from eating fruit while on an animal based diet. How did you stop that from happening?
Good info. I just started and I was only use salt and pepper to season, but now I will omit the pepper, makes perfect sense.
Do you eat this for every meal?? Or just breakfast?
It will be interesting to see the evolution of your diet in the years to come. That banana is not evolutionarily consistent, but I appreciate the experiment. If you change your mind again, please explain your thoughts and experience in stead of sneakily pretending it's always been that way.
mega bananas, unlimited supply of honey, abundance of fruit. Seems like Paul can only sustain this by doing a lot of activity every day. for the average sedentary person that type of diet seems would cause weight gain. Though for high performance athletes (like paul) on a keto/ carnivore diet, adding in fruit for performance seems fine.
If you listen to his podcasts regularly, you'd have heard about why he has included fruit and honey. He's far from sneakily pretending it's always been that way. He has fully explained why all protein and fat wasn't ideal, a couple of years into pure carnivore. The fruit and honey has given him electrolytes, which he realised was the missing piece of the puzzle for feeling his best.
@@SincerityJ electrolytes can be found in the blood of the animals you eat and river water. 2 things which we dont eat but our ancestors did. So unless u wanna go drink blood and the river just take an electrolyte supplement; the one like Ken Berry suggests. Much better than mega fruit
He's not been sneaky about it, at all! It's well-explained in the podcast series.
In fact, here's a video of Paul's discussing exactly that issue:
ua-cam.com/video/1VsnQU7Q1jQ/v-deo.html
@@SincerityJ100% agree with you.
Do you eat all the food at once? Do you have a second meal?? Thank you Paul! You’re the best!
He said right in the video that he doesn't fast throughout the day. So no, it's not one meal.
@@googlespies thanks.
You change like the wind fella
I swear Paul has eaten more balls than Belladonna. Another ripper vid mate
Keep doing these vids paul. So no skin disease issues or anything with the fruit ?
Great video. Would like to see you cook more meats etc, even if it's just chucking it in the grill lol. Friendly advice, lose the trashy music it was a bit much for my autistic brain to cope with haha. Too much going on and buzziness!
I have the same brain. 😖 Assuming you eat a carnivore diet, have you noticed it has helped with ASD related things like hypersensitivities, mood issues, etc? I seem to be more grounded and functional than ever before. Hallelujah!
@@SarahDale111 yes
@@carnivore-muscle How did you come to the carnivore diet? Had you heard anything about it helping with ASD? I heard it helped with mood disorders, so gave it a try.
light through UA-cam, and that's good. I think the stabilised blood sugars and reduced brain inflammation is what's helping
@@carnivore-muscleThank god for youtube. 🙃
Loved this video, great job can’t wait to try the honey on steak !!!
Is that lichee-like fruit a rambutan? LOVE your show! ❤️😘🥩
The hairy red one is rambutan
Yes
I was reading somewhere that sardines in evoo are a good replacement from eating testicles been following alot of your stuff maybe honey garlic. I use alot of black peper i would like to see the video on tumeric and or tumerid
When frying a piece of meat in a frying pan and as it's close to being cooked I often put honey on it. I do this with vegetables sometimes too. When i see your videos and explanations I understand why i like honey with meat.
This is probably why meat and sweet recipes are so liked such as Duck a la Orange, etc.
What about eating fat and carbs together (Randle cycle).
Looks like he dropped a lot of his fat intake.
@@alexanderohanlon8825 i work better with just fat of the meat and carbs. When i was trying keto (for a year) everytime i added extra fat like suet id get the shits. I tried everything. Ate for months like that and always got the shits. If i add to much fat when cookjng (yes animal fats) ill get the shits. We need energy some how. Why not carbs. It would be interesting to hear his ideas on the randle cycle though!
@@steakovercake3986 you might have low gallbladder/bile output, thus can't emulsif the fat hence the trotts! Try bile salts, and if that works look at correcting your the issue if you can... Saying all that it might be your body just doesn't like the rendered fat and there's nothing up with your gallbladder/liver. Just out of curiosity what about butter?
he's doing this after surfing for hours. the randle cycle (eating carbs with fat) would lead to rapid restoration of glycogen, while the body uses fat for energy.
Some of us have a genetic predisposition to hemachromatosis. I found this out last year. Previous to being tested, I was practically carnivore and all this beef caused my ferritin levels to skyrocket to the point where the doctor thought I was an alcoholic. With dietary changes, (namely cutting back on the beef), supplementation with IP-6, Quercetin, among others, pairing meat with dairies like cheese and yogurt, I've been able to get my ferritin numbers down to the 80-90 range. There were 5 phlebotomies in there as well. Once I started consuming beef more than 2-3 X week, the ferritin rose again. What have I learned? I was advised once to eat all the beef I want and just get the phlebotomies, but since you can only do that every 6 weeks, I've learned you can't out run rising iron levels with blood letting. Or with yogurt, or cheese, or IP-6. It's imperative that I cut back on beef. So, I MUST incorporate more eggs (and I do not weep as I love eggs), chicken, fish, turkey and to a lesser extent, pork.
I've also learned that consuming 1 gm of protein per lbs. of desired bodyweight does not work for me. I'm 200 lbs., 5'6", just turned 57. I've never weighed this much in my life. My bodyfat has never been this much and I cannot get under 190. The last time I did that was 4 years ago where I fluctuated between 175-188, depending on the season. I am sluggish. I have had the worst chronic fatigue I've ever experienced and the brain fog is brutal. The 40 minutes I spend in the gym beat me up. Any activities past noon- 1PM are usually out of the question. Energy wise I am spent.
I've done better with my protein levels down around 120-130 with a macro distribution that more or less resembles Barry Sears' Zone Diet.
My Father had this as did his Father. I have one gene mutation and considered less likely to have an issue in the future. However, my last bloodwork did have my ferritin high (post hysterectomy FYI). I too need to watch my beef intake somewhat. I’m happy you figured this out since it can be dangerous. Thanks for sharing.
Same story here. It's definitely not a 'one size fits all' approach. Also, most beef is lousy with histamine, another major trigger for many people.
I have the same thing but raw beef doesn't cause hemachromatosis. verified by many on primal diet. Something about the cooked iron is fired like clay and rusts in the body. works for me
@@daniellem1838 I have a question. Are you of Eastern European descent? I am Lithuanian with a bit of Polish and Russian on my mother's side. Her father had tremendous bouts with depression and alcoholism. Genetically, that part of the world is susceptible to Hemachromatosis and I think he passed that gene on to me though my mom. I've gotten books on how to cook for hemachromatosis but there are too many sugars, grains and carbs in it for my liking.
@@rolandsharp I've never heard that. My hematologist encourages me to eat beef just not the amounts I consumed full carnivore or what Paul recommends in the video. How well it is cooked is something I will ask him about when I see him in a few weeks. Thank you for the tip.
If you are not an active person, you should not eat more than 100g of carbs per day. You should earn your carbs through activity.
if you are not an active person, you should become active, not limit the carbs. limiting the carbs will make you even more sedentary.
Hi , What type of Grill is the one you'er using. Thanks
Hello Paul ; the Fruit and Meat together does it overload the digestive system or is it just temporary like becuz of sibo or something ?
Gratefull for your Answer
How often do you think our ancestors hunting around glaciers could find papaya? Even in African jungle there is no fruit growing on trees. You will be lucky to find honey once or 2ice a year. We evolved eating meat. Meat is our human species appropriate diet.
Good point. Fruit and honey are like nature's desserts
Of course different regions have different fruits. Most regions have some fruit in summer, which our ancestors ate to fatten up for the winter.
You gotta send out revisions of your book. In the book your speak against honey and fruits
This is what I’m saying!! He was so against it. And all of a sudden it’s all okay! I followed this guy to a T and now everything he taught went out the window.
@@aaroncash9561 Clickbait?
Right!!!!
So based on your The Carnivore Code (which I own in the Audible audiobook version), I thought most carbohydrate containing foods were against protocol or actually contraindicated on the diet. Your way of eating now is very different. Would definitely hope for an update based on your experience, and other research, rather than a new book to buy on ‘how I lost 20lbs and regained my health’…
How do you feel about Oats? I was always told they were great source our carbohydrates and helped with cholesterol
He hates oats, oats are BULLSHIT😂😂
What kind of grill/bbq is that? Electric? Propane? Brand? Thx! 😀
By the way i appreciate you input... lol thats what I do with honey 🤣 i ad butter also.
Let’s do a GoFundMe to buy him a shirt.

Well, he has his "Kale is Bullshit" t-shirt. :)
He is a beautiful specimen! No Shirt!
What are your thoughts on fermentation of vegetables? I heard that removes most of the toxins, including oxalates, and effectively ADDS nutrients like b-vitamins.
He addresses that in another video. And for folks sensitive to histamines, all fermented foods are a no go.
Do you use any type of protein powder...getting expensive these days.
I love to eat hot spices , which I heard were good for you, like chiles, jalapeños. Are you saying it’s a no-no?
Thanks for the info , I just ordered 2 of your products.
I have been eating mainly raw meat + raw fat (30% from meat weight) + fruit and tubers (around 100 grams of carbs daily) for almost a year (I live in the middle east). My blood tests were amazing. I still kept the high HDL and low triglycerides that I had on a paleolithic ketogenic diet. My HbA1c is low, insulin and c-peptide also low. No inflammation. Feel more energetic, my thyroid, kidney and liver tests are better than on keto. Overall, I am happy with the results.
I miss fruit but i thought Paul was doing carnivore ?
@@debbietaylor20 He is meat based but not carnivore.
What fruits do you eat usually:)?asking for mu gut issues and sensitive gut/bloating because i want to add them too just im a little scared
@@Melina-ld6oq You will have to experiment. But I try to add only seasonal, local and organic fruit. In addition, I try to eat the fruit that was around for at least a few generations (I am from the Middle East) in my region like watermelons, oranges, grapes, etc.
You say that it’s not evolutionarily inconsistent to eat all that fruit. But you aren’t from Costa Rica. Where were your ancient ancestors getting all that fruit from?
Also, that fruit has been bred to be way sweeter than anything our ancestors would have eaten. Ever seen a wild banana? It is all seeds and tough fibers inside, very little sweet mush.

I just read Paul's book. Now I find his YT channel and he is now eating fruit & honey. Surprised...but good to see.
I appreciate your videos and the knowledge you share 💯🙏 Thank you.
Hey Paul
Thanks for introducing me to carnivore. My kids love to dip their meat in local honey instead of ketchup.
I was wondering if you could do a podcast about Costa Rica? I’m from Canada and every province is implementing CV passports. I’m considering relocating. Is Costa Rica Free?
My kids do this as well! I also allow it with maple syrup locally, though I’m pretty sure it’s not as ‘healthy’. As long as they enjoy their meat I’m happy! Good luck on relocating! We are feeling the pressures as well and have just sold our home in Minnesota to travel in an RV until we find somewhere safe/sane to settle roots down again. Costa Rica does look beautiful, though I heard a friend say recently that they would never travel there again. They didn’t elaborate on why but now I’m curious…
@@fallonnicole7736 We enjoyed Costa Rica a lot but we went in 2016. I would take a trip there first before moving there.

Hey Dr. Saladino, what do you think about sugar alternatives like monk fruit, stevia etc.?
Dr Saladino, thank you so much for this update.
I am also on the side of balanced. I left your channel months ago after a 60 days by the book pure carnivore, organs (raw liver) 100% grass finish etc etc. I felt miserable after 4 weeks but i did push to the full 8 weeks. It was tolerable, just no way it was a good life experience.
After studying continuous glucose meters, I now know some like you will thrive on a 150ish grams of carbs while other will be ok in the 50 to 80g.
The real answer is in the our genetic code, most importantly polymorphies.
So thank you for making me understand that I did good following my instinct going back adding some oranges and most importantly, totally breaking the ketones production 2 or 3 times a month with some clean carbs.
As a dentist I'm really curious how your dental caries situation is eating all that honey (which is 99.9% glucose and fructose). Love to see you post current bite wings of your teeth.
