I am almost in tears after watching this. I was keto for 5 years. Surpassed my goal weight of 140lbs to 132lbs. I fluctuated a little and transitioned to carnivore. I've gained 30lbs and have been wondering what I was doing wrong. I have been carnivore for 2 years, eating mostly 1lb beef for lunch, maybe 4 eggs, and a ribeye for dinner. Occasionally fish and chicken. I was hitting between 150-190g of protein. I may lose half a pound when I keep my protein but drop my fat to below 30, but feel horrible. You hear from many different people to up your protein and lower your fat, to lose weight, but this has not worked for me. I looked back at my macros when I was the skinniest and realized that I do think my proteins levels are too high. I am going to try dropping down the protein to 90-96g daily and upping the fat and see how this works. This gives me hope to lose the 30lbs I gained and to hopefully maintain.
Hi, just wondering if that worked for you.
I wonder aswell!
This was so relevant to me I listened twice. Thank you for all your generosity and unselfish dedication to this community! ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼
Thank you Judy! That makes sense. My sugar levels are super high, despite eating low carb/no sugar for almost 2yrs. So that is a bit frustrating and I haven't lost any weight; I've been gaining and I am the fattest I've ever been in my life!! Ha!😄😭 (I'm getting an A1C done tomorrow, my oncologist was concerned). I figured it was all hormonal, due to the total hysterectomy I had done 3 yrs ago, which set off early onset menopause and it's side effects . My body has gone thru a lot(stage 4 colon cancer survivor, going on 3 yrs 😊), and I know it'll take a while until I heal and see some results. Not giving up on this way of eating! Thanks again!
WOW, God bless you. I just had a full hysterectomy. The surgical menapause has really done a number on me. Really bad fatigue. Hope you see this message. Would love to hear more about your story
I had to go under ,10g of carbs (only from non starch veggies) to see my glucose down significantly Took almost a year to go from 9.5 A1c to 5.6. this last yr , carnivore , zero carbs and my A1c now between 4.9- 5.2. Some of us are more insulin resistant. I too had cancer 11 yrs ago so you can only tremendously benefit from this woe. I have lost 80 lbs. to date with 30 to go.
Thank you for this information. I've been carnivore for about 6 months and just started having sleeping issues; trouble getting to sleep and trouble staying asleep. I've started checking my blood sugars more and adding electrolytes as well. Hoping that I'll be able to find a solution soon.
It took me 5-6 months to finally figure out I was eating way too much protein and not nearly enough fat. I didn’t sleep a whole night through that whole time. People just kept saying it’ll happen. Umm no. Started hearing about high fat carnivore and started playing around with that. I switched to 60 grams of protein and at least 170 grams of fat and sleep so good now. But too much protein has now made me hypothyroid, high glucose and very leptin resistant with now 20lbs to lose. There’s a lot of really bad information in the carnivore community.
wow!! I wonder if this is what's been happening to me...I tried Carnivore before and eventually lost energy ...I'm trying it again because I believe in the benefits but my sleep is horrible and I still notice higher than normal Blood Sugar readings....my hair is still falling out after 4 years on keto ...hmmm.....i ALWAYS lean toward high protein....maybe this is worth looking into
How do you go about getting that much fat?
Butter@@carl8568
@@lisamaldonado2334My sleep too is so erratic, it has truly tanked my ability to function. Thank you Dr Cho, for addressing this issue for many of us carnivores. 🙏
@@carl8568Yeah, how do you eat that much fat? Do I need to just eat butter with a fork? Yuck! I don’t know if I could do that. I just started Carnivore 2 days ago. I didn’t get to sleep until 5 am the first night, (morning really), and no sleep last night. I got tired of trying to sleep at 6am and I got up for a few hours. I took 1/2 an Ambien and ate a few carbs at 10am and went back to sleep until about 5pm. I can’t do this every night. I already had a sleep disorder where my brain wakes up 300+ times a night. Now this, I can’t cope with it!
It is a wonderful feeling when you can eat all that and now longer need enzymes. I never knew that kind of life could be possible. I feel what helped me the most was eating without liquids that dilute my stomach acids. Plus I am on microbiome labs products which are something you have to start off slow with as well. Before I went meat/fat based I was bloated all the time and now I’m not because of the diet change. Great video thank you
I'm glad you're putting this information out there. I got very sick having too much protein and not enough fat and totally wrecked my gut on carnivore when all I was doing zero carb for was trying to lose weight. Even now if I fast more than 10 hours a day for not even 2 weeks I'll completely lose the ability to sleep. It's so hard coming back from this because hormones and the gut don't get fixed fast and I wish I had never heard of the carnivore diet, but I think it's great that you're helping people understand how to do it right so that they won't crash and burn like I did.
Thank you! I’ve learned a lot from you in the past couple videos. Woke up at 3am this morning thinking about iodine and salt so I said well might as well get up and look up health videos! Glad I stumbled upon your channel, I’ll be coming back for sure
These charts are excellent for explaining this to the person that needs to change their diet.........thank you Judy~
I have 3 eggs, 1 glass of 100% grassfed whole milk ( I am lactase persistent) 3 ounces of red meat ( beef, pork, lamb, or bison) sometimes I have a little bit of yogurt sometimes I don't, for a first meal. Second meal Wild caught Atlantic mackerel or Salmon 3 ounce portion, 3 ounces of mussels, and 3 ounces of clams or scallops. I eat seafood as a second meal because it makes me sleep like a rock.
I think that is the milk
@@miko157 Check tryptophan in seafood.
Good information as usual Judy👏🏽🙏🏽✌🏽
Great video. Thank you. My sleep has been sucking. I stopped focusing on getting enough fat...i also have a lot of gas now...now aware that might also be why i i have so much gas.
How do I find my Ideal body weight?
You are my new go to carnivore channel. I love how you explain things simply, yet include necessary details, and do it quickly. I lose patients when people speak slowly.
Hi Judy, thank you for this amazing short video. I heard about coconut oil in one of your podcasts that it kills our micro biome but does MCT C8 does the same ?
My problem is I am not hungry at all to eat enough protein or fat.
Great job at covering so many details so well! I listened twice too.
Really needed to see this even though I’ve watched loads of carni UA-cam videos, this has explained why I got polymyalgia when fasting even though I was not stressed in any way or hungry. I always thought it was related but wasn’t sure why, now coming off steroids I need my adrenals to get working and you’ve even explained that thanks
This was very helpful! Thank you so much!
Hello Judy. Thank you for this video. Is the calculation-table, which you are showing, available for download?
@@NutritionwithJudy Hello Judy, thanks for your respond :-)
Your content is always so valuable! Thank you, Judy!
Great info. Why would a lick of salt help me fall back to sleep? Just a observation
WOW!!!! Thank you for this explanation Judy. You rock!!!
Awesome, this one helps a lot. Thank you!
Thank you for the info. I'll have to give this a try. I've been sleeping horribly.
Great Video!!! Thank you for helping me change my life for the better
I think I don’t enough protein. I just cannot eat too much. I am not hungry. I have sleeping problems for many years. I am mostly relaxed carnivore. How to make an appointment with you? I am in Washington state. Thank you
So glad I came across your channel. Going to watch a lot of your videos!!
And order the book soon.
Quick question in the meantime...
I’m about 3 weeks into carnivore diet. Felt 110% great from day 1 absolutely life changing but the last 3 days my heart has been beating a bit harder and faster than normal all of a sudden. Still feel good in general though... just wandering if the is something healing inside me or am I doing something wrong?
check out Dr. Ken berry he talks about that if you do not know him WEALTH of knowledge for carnivore
@@timratcliff6590He is, but I haven’t seen a video from him about sleep issues! He should address them.
I sleep like a log most nights,but about a week before my period I usually get 4 hours of sleep and that's it! It is exhausting. Half way through my period I sleep well again.
Any suggestions what could be wrong anyone?
Thanks in advance
Once again, another amazing Video! Love the Science!
I just spent the first 2 nights on carnivore not sleeping. So, I have to eat all that fat? How? Just take a fork to a cube of butter? It sounds nauseating, and unnatural. I don’t know if I can do that. Ugh! I so wanted this diet to help me with my half a dozen autoimmune diseases and weight loss. How do you help beginners to get this much fat per day?
Here are some things that worked for me. (NOTE: I didn't do all this as a beginner, I'm about 7.5 months in.)
1. Adding butter to my coffee. (Yes, some Carnivores don't do coffee, but I am one that does. Lol)
2. I make steak, and then let it "rest" for 10 minutes with a tablespoon of butter on top, tent it in foil for the 10 minutes. Then, I cut up the steak, place it in a bowl, and pour the butter and steak juice over it. 😋 I then eat it with a spoon to include the yummy fats!
3. Add 8 slices of bacon (and bacon grease) along with the meal above, into the bowl.
4. Pork belly!!! (plus the juices) I was still struggling to get enough fat, then I discovered PORK BELLY! This was KEY for me! I actually added 6oz Pork Belly to the bowl/meal above and that's been the perfect meal for me for the past 3 weeks! 😂
I hope something here helps you.
Thank you very helpful and informative.
Hi guys. How does one calculate protein and fat grams that is in meat or other carnivore things? Thank you :)
Thank you for this video, do you still recommend these macros for weight loss or more for healing ?
@@NutritionwithJudy thank you, im very much interested in weight loss and appreciate the info on healing as well.
@@NutritionwithJudy thank you, not sure about adrenals but I do fast daily. Scale is going opposite direction after a huge loss. I will keep trying. Thank you !
Personally I love OMAD and 2MAD but still in a short eating period like 4, no more than 6. Intermittent fasting is life whether doing keto or carnivore
The older you get the worse protein uptake % will be. Research (ref. Dr. Gabriel Lyon) shows that with increasing age you need more protein to keep the same lean mass.
Personal experience with my father who was (badly) advised to reduce protein due to stage 3 CKD, is that 0,8g per lb is far too low. Since going ketovore & increasing protein CKD has improved. Unfortunately too late for some issues to reverse caused by low protein.
Hi Judy. I love listening to your podcast with Laura (cutting against the grain). I've starting watching some more of your nutrition with Judy you tube videos but I would like to purchase a copy of carnivore cure for reference. I went onto amazon but I cannot see a hard copy to purchase it's only available in audio. I live in Scotland is that why?? Could you forward a link of where I could purchase a copy please.
Helpful video! How do ketone levels on carnivore compare to keto if you're doing 70-80% fat and more moderate protein?
Thanks for the info!!
More sleep would be good, but I wake up 3:50 AM for work and usually don't get home 5:30 PM.. I would have to be fast asleep by 7:45 to get 8 hours in. That just never happens.
How about your calories for good sleep? I eat these ratios but not sure if I'm undereating or overeating. I can't get enough deep sleep (stage 3/4). It's mostly light sleep.
@@NutritionwithJudy I'm right on track with what your clients are going. Must be stress. 🥴 I have been tracking my macros, calories, and sleep. It really is the only thing... I.dont feel stressed but then again low grade chronic stress is probably there. Thanks Judy. ❤️
@@NutritionwithJudy Yes! I'll get on it. 👍
Thanks for this! What fat can you use in teaspoons if you can’t tolerate butter!?
Brilliant thanks so much for replies appreciate the help!
Hi Judy, I am loving the content of your channel and soon I will starr your book. I have a question I take everyday my body basal temperature and it is often 36.2C. Is that an indication of hypothiodism? I have been in a meet diet for 2 months and before I was 1 year in Keto
Thank you
Are these macros for maintaining your current weight or can you lose weight eating 80% fat?
I ate keto for 6 months, ketovore for a year and a half after... went carnivore for January and now high fat gives me the runs. I'm flabbergasted
That might mean that you're not fully fat adapted.
It's your gallbladder and liver. I'd recommend doing a gallbladder and liver flush and potentially even some coffee enemas. Most "flushes" recommend going all plant based before the cleanse but I don't believe that's necessary at all. Our livers become backed up with stones before our gallbladder does; with that said, you want to focus on detoxing those two organs first. Eating a SAD sadly has ruined many people's abilities to digest fat (and fat soluble vitamins) so when we go to carnivore or a more biologically appropriate diet, our bodies struggle. Good luck. It's been hell for me.
Much simpler than the last couple posts. It will go away after a while. Any time you up your fat your body has to adjust. For some it only takes a bit, for me it took 6 months. But it stopped and everything is regular now :)
@@erbaker22 Well smartass everyone is different. With that said, just because you stopped the hot poos after six months doesn't negate what I or the other person had said. Usually people go Carnivore because their health has tanked; they wake up one day with some form of dysfunction and/or disease and realize they need the carnivore diet. All those years of bad eating and lifestyle habits lead to an overburdened liver. The liver and gallbladder at the point in time most people go carnivore, is trashed. The flushes are crucial to true healing when going carnivore. Before you make light or fun of comments, just try to look into some of the science.
@@janedoe2596 Suggestions on where to find good liver/ gallbladder flush protocols?
6:29, You would add 3 TBS of what? Thank you for this very informative video. Thank you for your work :-0)
@@NutritionwithJudy Thank You! 💝
Of butter
@@loraqgui Thanks !
Just wondering if you eat the amount thats in the table (600g ribeye + 33g butter) which is 'just' a 57% fat? Of are you eating really 75% fat? Honest question.
I don't know why but the calculation seems of.
How do you get to 75%??
171 / (171+126) = 0,5757 * 100= 57%
When adding 4 tablespoons extra butter i would say thats an additional 4*11 =44g
=> makes fat total 171+44 = 215 => 215g (fat_tot) + 126g (protein) = 341g ==>
percentage of fat 215/341 = 0,63 => times 100 = 63%
To get 75% fat and 25% protein means imo that you have to take the protein amount times 3 in fat, because the protein needs to be 25% of the 100% to be able to get 75% fat. That would mean 126*3 = 378g of fat would be 75%.
378 - 171(ribeye 138g+ 3 tbsp butter for 33g) = 207 grams of fat required on top of the 171g. Guessing each tbs butter = 11g (33g/3). Meaning 207/11 = 18,81 extra tables spoons of butter to get to 75%.
Hi Judy, I've been following carnivore for almost a year come February. I had some blood work done concerning my cortisol and its at 20. I have been doing a high fat low protein 90/10 protocol to help heal my hormones and my sleep. Is there anything else that you could suggest that I do for healing my cortisol? I have had 17 years of chronic insomnia. And I would like to know is there a protocol to help mend my sleep?
Eating some salt before bed helps me sleep. She has a video on that.
@@whatta1501 sodium salts
I m also chronic insomniac how much sleep u get on average
Since I use ounces and pounds instead of grams I’m having trouble converting how much to eat.
What are your thoughts on supplementation/enzymes if my pancreas isn’t functioning well, and Tudca for fatty liver?
Judy I’ve gotten extra chunky with higher fat over 120 grams and now getting chunky eating 250 grams of protein and 100-130 grams of fat. I’m SMH 🤦♂️ over this. I’ve been eating 2 meals a day for 2 months coming off of OMAD for 2 years.
I know this is an old post but just wondered, did you find resolution to this? I thought she said that the fat should be higher than the protein, for women anyway.
excelent video, thankk you for share your knowlege, i tried to eat 80% fat because i was craving it, but, i just got nausea/sicnkness, :(
protein # is way off. it does not consider the fat in a ribeye. 600g ribeye has 95g protein at 25% fat
thank u
I’ve been carnivor-ish for almost a year. Adding a few veggies such as onions or tomatoes and nuts occasionally. No seed oils in my diet. I have gained about 10 lbs. Should I drop my fat calories to allow my body to provide that fat? Or stick to these macro ratios for weight loss? (I don’t know what my ratios have been, probably too much protein)
So can you point me to research that shows we need to follow the .8 grams to retain muscle mass? This is not to be argumentative. I'm a research person and want to know how that was figured out. When you say that you will eat even when not hungry to keep your metabolic rate up, that means we don't trust satiety? Hope you take these questions in the spirit they are written. Thanks Judy.
There's no good research on that from what i've seen. Hormones build or break protein and ketones are very protein sparring, i think even with .5g you can build muscle easily if you get enough micronutrients
@@sabincioflec8413 Thanks. I'm seeing examples of others in the community that are building muscle on lower protein. So many voices out there!
What type of Fat besides Butter? Thx
oh my...gram per pound? metric please.
I like your video and I think it was helpful, but to be honest, men can never get a six pack abs if they eat only 30% of their calories from protein. Just look at dr. Ted Naiman and other natural bodybuilders, when they are on a cutting phase they get up to 50% of their calories from protein. Sometimes even 60% temporarily.
Your macros are good but they don't work for men who want to get ripped and ultra-lean.
What is a healthy fasting blood glucose range for carnivore? I'm averaging 90. Is that too high? Lowering protein isn't making it budge much.
@@NutritionwithJudy Okay, will play around with that. Thanks!
👍👍
Let’s see what Ken D Berry MD has to say about your protein theory which he talks about in this video ua-cam.com/video/A36DS6HJxNs/v-deo.html
Thanks for providing that link... I am really beginning to question why eating has become so complex.
😁✌🖖👌👍😎
You talk way too fast.
That’s funny, I listen to her at 1.25 speed 😅.
