It is absurdly ironic when an overweight coworker eating pizza and a Dr Pepper for lunch, asks you whether you’re not concerned about heart disease risk eating eggs and meat
I don’t eat out hardly ever, but in February I took my son out for his birthday to a steak house, I gave the waitress my food allergy list: shell fish, pineapple, canola oil, vegetable oil, pork, sugar, grains, peanut oil, sunflower oil, cotton seed oil, corn oil, soybean oil, grape seed oil, margarine, MSG, all soy products. It’s embarrassing but I would prefer a moment or two of feeling awkward to days and days in pain. They cooked my ribeye and eggs in butter. I asked the person who brought my food for butter, they brought it and my waitress was walking past and snatched it off the table and told me that’s not pure butter, they whip vegetable oil with butter because it looks prettier, 😱🙄 The waitress went to the line in the kitchen and got me real butter. I gave that waitress an extra tip just for taking such great care of me.
@@w1975b I always bring my own water, I don’t drink nasty city water, I have my own spring well at home. Last time I met my niece, I had my lunch box with a container with homemade burger patties. I ate with no shame and she was not embarrassed either. My health comes first.
It’s always good to ask about the butter at restaurants. I don’t go out to restaurants as often anymore, but when I do ask about the butter and the server goes to ask someone in the kitchen about it, they come back and say yes, it’s a mix of butter and some form of vegetable-based oil. Servers often believe that it’s just regular butter.
I also had UC. They rescued my colon with Remicade then 3 months later it opened me up to Guillian Barre Syndrome. (Listed in Remicade literature as possible rare side effect.) That was hell. Switched to Entyvio for next 4 years. Eating Carnivore now. Living overseas and do not plan on being on anymore biologics! Great testimony!
Great interview! We need to start getting some interventional studies for carnivore diet effect on these various inflammatory diseases. The anecdotal evidence is overwhelming.
I’m diagnosed with Crohn’s since 2015. Had countless surgeries for abscess’s and fistula’s. Currently stable on Remicade but constant underlying inflammation. Started a carnivore type diet on Monday & will update my progress and experience here for any other to hear and learn from. Very appreciative of conversations like this being shared to inspire and teach a different way of living. Praying for success with this diet!
@@BoluMc Hi, I'm a month into this diet now and I'm feeling very positively about it. I have my infliximab infusions every 5-weeks and usually in the week before I'm very tired, have less strength in the gym and feel a general, mild inflammation throughout my body. I didn't have any of these symptoms leading up to my latest infusion today! Other general things I've noticed so far: No bloating - my stomach never feels uncomfortable. I no longer have 'food babies' after eating my belly is basically always flat now. Reduced cravings - Hunger throughout the day is reduced. Meal times leave me satisfied for hours. Body Composition - I was 75kg and athletic before starting as was worried I'd lose weight on this diet. Im still 75kg but have become visually leaner with more muscle and less fat. Better sleep - I find that I have deeper sleep and wake up feeling more refreshed that I used to. Overall it's too early to draw any final conclusions for myself. However, I can only say good things so far and will be continuing as I am. I will update again next month.
i found something out today, boiled meat is delicious. i took a 2lb chunk of sirloin with fat and connective tissue, pressure cooked it for just under 20m with just salt, it came out medium rare in the center and it had a soup with it. it was so easy to eat and sat so well in my gut. i'll try chuck next, and shoulder roast. i get tired of grilled or pan fired steaks, and its less greasy boiled.
I contracted Campylobacter 4 years ago which progressed to microscopic colitis. My life changed so much as I couldn’t go anywhere meds made life miserable. Two years on carnivore and no meds. I find I need to stick close to carnivore or suffer the results. I’m just so grateful for the information I find posted without it I’d still be I’ll.
I really like this interview Dr. Baker! I hope you do studies on Diverticulitis as well and how carnivore diet heals that as well as the other intestinal issues like colitis.
A lot of our produce is deliberately “infected“ with an insecticide called BT, to make the plant resistant to being eaten. And even organic produce sometimes gets tainted with glyphosate at some point in the production of the final food product. Legally. And then even organic produce is often sprayed with a hydrocarbon preservative. That’s before it lands on your plate, possibly cooked in inflammatory seed oils. We didn’t have to deal with that when we were young. It’s such a shame what mad scientists have done to our food.
Great to hear your story....it's the same story I have. I'm fairly new to it at this point just started Jan 24, 2022 but it pretty much reversed my colitis in under a month. I've been a little to willy nilly with trying to add things back in way way to soon, whether that's seasonings of one type or another or mustard etc. But when that goes awry I just go back to beef butter bacon and eggs and in a few days it's back to normal. I do find that pure unsweetened cocoa powder really helps me feel good. I add it to plain Greek yogurt thickened up with 35% whipping cream as a treat and it causes me no I'll effects. Coffee for me can be a bit hit or miss so I've been weaning myself off it. ...down to 1 cup black in the morning and one before I workout, I'm gonna try using butter in it and see what that brings, I love the experiments n = 1. Normal I have a 6-8 hour eating window which obviously butter coffee will break a fast but I don't think my body likes extended periods of fasting. I tried a 20 hour fast the other day and I got diarrhea out of nowhere. Thanks for telling your story. I try to tell as many people as I can about this, it's unbelievable how much this has given me my life back.
@SoldierofGod47 Hey, thanks for reaching out. Im still doing carnivore because it's one of the greatest things I've ever done for myself. My colitis is in full remission, and now almost 2 years in i can tolerate some seasoning and other foods. I do not use seasonings ofter but from time to time they are a nice treat. I strongly encourage you to try it but realise nothing gets fixed overnight. It took months and years to get to this point, so have patience and reach out anytime you want any advice
Hey I also have UC and have been on Carnivore. Everything was going great, but over the new years I drank a glass of Kombucha and it messed me up. Do you think it's possible to get back into remissions with out medicine? I would hate to have to take meds again. The symptoms of the meds are horrible.@@jeffgobert9325
Grass fed beef should be the cheapest meat you can buy. Went to a cattle auction with a rancher friend ho bought 4 cows a little over 600lbs each total 2400lbs for a total of a little over $600 they had all to that point been raised on nothing but grass, he said the extra cost for grass finished is a scam.
What would be a fair price for a pound of ground beef? Don't forget about the slaughter process. They need to be taken to a processor, who does that, then divides up all the parts and packages it up for sale. The farmer raising those cows has to pay the processor. The farmer will pass that cost on to consumer.
One of my closest friends has fairly significant UC. I have been pleading with him for 2 years to try a carnivore diet. I just forwarded this video to him.
@@robinbeers6689 it’s difficult for them. It’s an addiction. It’s like telling an alcoholic to just stop drinking. Not a very effective strategy. But, at some point, they have to decide. Do I want to eat meat and eggs only, or do o want to shit pure blood? Seems like an easy decision to me…
@@keywestfan2503 Yeah, it does almost seem like an addiction. Not the unhealthy food so much as the being sick. It's like being sick become their whole identity and they wouldn't know how to be without that.
@@robinbeers6689 the sick role certainly does confer some secondary gain. But who wants to live like that? It’s about our relationship with food. The not so healthy “comfort” aspect of it. I’ve eaten carnivore for so long that I’ve desensitized myself to the pleasure of food. Don’t get me wrong. I love meat and eggs, but have zero cravings for sweets etc. My mind frame is one of pure nutrition and sustenance. What can I eat to be healthy and build muscle? Has nothing to do with how palatable something is, although I am completely satisfied with every aspect of meat and eggs etc.
@@keywestfan2503 Me too. I've been carnivore for 9 years. I have zero desire for any of the starchy stuff or green vegetable matter. My once in a while treat is some tree candy (a.k.a. fruit).
I have IBD (UC). I'm learning about it. I don't want to be on medication if I can help it. At the moment I am fasting to get the flare up to calm. Than I'll be adding beef and chicken in.
@@Bob-ow4ju Yes and no. Once I started to eat the symptoms started back up. I am on medication now. But with a meat based diet and fasting it's under control. So if I feel bloated or painful stomach I fast. I think it can help to get rid of what's irritating your IBD faster but if you eat that food it will cause issues again.
I have UC and I was big fan for carnivore diet. I tried it but it made the symptoms worse and I started having bad abdominal pain. The reason was eating too much fat (100g butter or beef fat a day). As soon as I stopped the fat, the pain gone and the symptoms were better. The bottom line for me is, meat is good but fat should not be eaten a lot.
That was a fantastic video Very informative and includes alot of helpful hope for these auto immune diseases !! Good luck Brett and Dr Baker in getting the word out that 🍖 meat heals!! 🍖
I remember a coworker being diagnosed with Crohn's over 10 years ago (long since worked at other jobs) and she was eating noodle cups at lunch! I have no idea what happened to her.
Can someone please clarify what group Dr. Baker is referring to at 47:37 I’m trying to find these studies and cannot seem to locate them. I am curious about these case reports on ulcerative colitis.
Remicade gave me awful arthritis, lupus and IC and it has never gone away.. it got to the point where I couldn’t wear shoes and walk for years..I am now on A different one now but in a terrible flare.. how do you eat and start a carnivore diet if food won’t stay in my body? I can’t even eat during the day so that I can work.
I'm so ill I'll try anything , was finally diagnosed with colitis a year ago , im sixty one . My question is since im so allergic to dairy that it causes anaphylaxis and I have to carry an epi pen. Can I do carnovore without any form of dairy and still get enough fat and calcium ?
I can't find a single person actually talking about colonoscopy results, though. I want to do the diet but I need just a couple people to show me that their colonoscopy showed the colon was healed through actually looking at the intestines!!!
This is absolutely wonderful! I have healed my gutt and gone from pre diabetic to safe levels! I am an athlete and am so grateful for the Carnivore diet! Would love to collaborate with you. SkiMum out!

So glad that you recovered or are in remission from this terrible disease.
Progress? How has it been going?
How has it been going my friend?
Are you off Entyvio now (December 2022)? If so, how long? And, like a couple other questions here on your post, how are you doing???
Great interview! We need to start getting some interventional studies for carnivore diet effect on these various inflammatory diseases. The anecdotal evidence is overwhelming.
Thank you for sharing; I'm sure there are many more young men out there that can benefit from this anecdotal and real life information

How’s your diet working for you?
Great contributor. Love his plans for meat- based meals for kids.

Yep its often double the price where I live, same as pasture feed chickens.
Great interview. Thank you
Saying he eats a lot of butter means he should be getting high levels of butyric acid, which is very good for the gut lining/health.
It's only 3-4% so the quantities are not decent and have to be supplemented in some cases.
