Moving story but you should probably have a trigger warning at the beginning of this video since depression and suicide are discussed at length. Thanks for sharing the story.
My doc was somewhat pleased with my weight loss (40 lbs). When I was leaving he said to make sure I'm on a low fat diet. I said ok, and left. Had a fat steak for dinner that night. Those docs are nuts.
I’m a disabled vet . In horrible pain 24/7 gained 70 lbs with hip replacement and Covid . Think about dying everyday. Sleep 1-3 hrs . VA will just lock you up if you seek help . I’m about to do carnivore
DO ITT!!! ONE DAY, or TODAY!!! Let’s gooooooo!!! Some people advise transitioning onto it, but if you’re like mist, verrrry addicted to carbs. You’ll feel crappy for 1-4 weeks then it gets much easier. Search successful carnivores tips, and figure out what works for you!!! Don’t be fooled by yourself!, you’re probably an addict too. Some people make it and heal. Others relapse. You got thisssss. Don’t give up. Never give up. You have the power.
I’m sorry to hear your story. I understand you, I’m in a depression state myself and often it seems there’s no way out. I pray for you, and for myself too, we deserve to feel better. I hope sincerely that you feel better soon. I send you a hug 🤗
ME TOO! :-) I asked my sisters if they ever read comments. One of them and their husband both said they NEVER look at comments. My other sister will sometimes read the comments but never makes a comment. I LIVE in the comment section because it's so helpful!
Then please read this comment .when the founder of this diet ( dr atkins) dies his autopsy report revealed he was suffering from severe clogged arteries and late stage heart and renal failure.these this guy knows what you like to hear just eat your eggs bacon meat and butter so they can make money on UA-cam.
@@TheRealMonnie me too I know we can learn so much by others who have experienced the same and see what they did. It’s so informative!! Good luck to us all and may God have mercy on us and bless us and this whole world, we need it!!
You are such an inspiration! I did Carnivore (BBBE) for 60 days in 2021, and lost some weight (30 lbs) ,felt better mentally, slept better, no acid reflux and even our farts diminshed. About 30 days in my inflammation reduced almost gone. The negative was that my psoriasis went through the roof especially on my hands, face and scalp. I stopped it and went back to eating some veggies and fruits thinking i would do keto. It was a gateway back into the SAD diet. Fast forward to now... I am on about 10 meds for BP, anxiety, reflux. I have recently found out that I am sensitive to a TON of foods including PORK, POULTRY, Lamb and VEGGIES/FRUITS> I am at the point of not being able to walk due to arthritis and BP. I think this time I am gonna try just Beef, Butter and Eggs with some seafood that wasn't on my list. Wish me Luck!!!

I love Kerry's testimony. Wow! Amazing. I will turn 80 in six months. In the past year, I have lost 35 pounds. I am off all arthritis medications and living relatively pain-free.
God Bless you guys! I'm so inspired. I'm 360lb male. Depress, and hopeless and I'm 1 week into a Ketovore diet. I have to start somewhere. So here I go! Thanks so much for the inspiration!
Please James Temple give it AT LEAST 90 days! It will transform your life physically,mentally and spiritually! Your brain will begin to clear and allow you to make better choices. Yes you’ll look better physically. Yes you will feel better, but more importantly you will learn how good it feels to be proud of yourself! You can do this! Please reach out when you need support! I am cheering for you because you have begun! You won’t be sorry!❤️🙏
I'm on Keto-vore also. I still do well with certain fruits and dairy, and I still indulge in a daily cup of tea with honey in it. Cutting out all other refined sugars and carbs has already caused me to slim down in size. I eat a lot of red meat, butter and eggs, that's the majority of my diet now. I also like that my arms and legs feel more muscular and dense.
69 yrs old , type two diabetic, 332 heavy! and congestive heart failure, and irregular heart failure. Just started this Carnivore life style four days ago! fingers crossed!!!
😭😭😭😭 I'm in a such a long-term insanely huge depression right now. This video was sent to me by a close friend of mine. Starting now I will try my best with this diet and I promise I will come back and check in how it's going. I have insomnia as well. I have fibromyalgia, iron deficiency anemia and 15+ illnesses. Please I have my full hope on this now. I will do my research and come back later on 😭😭😭
I am living proof of severe suicidal depression being reversed. I used to be on Prozac, but now I don't take anything, and I don't have extreme anxiety or depression anymore at all. Go full out carnivore, and you will become the best you!
I had IBS issues, horrible, for 60 years. Then I got on the carnivore diet, and my IBS disappeared. It makes me sick to know I didn't have to go through all that for sixty years.
how long did it take you for the IBS issues to go away. I have had it for almost 40 years and went on the carnivore about 5 weeks ago. I am still having bad diarrhea and dont know what to do. I am a driver so this is not going to work for me unless I find something to help me soon.
His wife is amazing to put up with him and all his problems for so long. I can’t imagine having to look after triplets and a partner who was so depressed. He is blessed to have such a great wife. I’m so glad he found carnivore and he feels so much better now.
I did'nt read all the comments but I want to honor your wife, Carry, that she was at your side all these horrible years of depression and pain. Wonderful. As wonderful as you made it!!! Congrats!!! I like this channel a lot! Thank you!
I’m also Very enthusiastic…I started carnivore 11+ months ago. So many things healed! IBS gone on 2 weeks. Itchy flaky eczema ear problem also gone in less than a month Arthritis hands elbows and shoulder totally pain free and strong in a few months. Gingivitis gums healed and receding gums grew back! Ovarian cyst Gone! And I don’t need reading glasses anymore! Had to share!!
I’m 86 days on carnivore after 12 yrs on vegetarian diet. A lot of inflammation in my joints, of course weight issues and never feeling satiety from eating. Starting to slim down, inflammation is gone, it’s nice not to be grassing all the time, I get asked all the time why I gave up being a vegetarian, I just say it wasn’t working for me anymore. Thank you Rina for all the awareness you bring us. WHERE’S THE BEEF?
Mam, can you please post ur daily diet,, I've been on vegetables, beans, grains and fruits,,,. Joints ache to the level of intolerance with breathlessness. Would be glad if you can post how to get initiated into Carnivore diet. Thanks in advancr
@@drngpawanakumar6637 If you can get your hands on grass-fed beef, you will be good. Also, eat organic eggs and bacon. Sausage is good too. Just make sure it's grass-fed from a farm near you.
I have no problem sticking with the carnivore diet because I now have hope. I was on cruise control just waiting to find out when I was going to die from being fat. Videos like this have given me hope. After just under a month I decided I was going to start exercising. I told myself 20 minutes on the elliptical machine no matter how hard it is. At 20 minutes I was feeling great and I was not huffing and puffing, my heart rate was 138. I decided to go until I wasn’t comfortable anymore. I made it an hour and never struggled to breathe. I am 50 and was never able to do exercise without struggling to breathe.
People cannot fathom clinical depression unless they experience it themselves. People who have would not wish it on their worst enemy. Thank you for sharing your story. To think that depression, social anxiety, sensory overload, cravings.. all that could be prevented by dietary change or at least alleviate it. Your personal accounts are so important in changing other people's lives around. It's when we see how much you changed that we get motivated to follow suit. 🙏
It wasn't clinical, but situational. The man was depressed about his health situation, namely his heart. 99% of the time it's situational, in my opinion. I've been there myself.
I started keto-carnivore 11 days ago due to debilitating and undiagnosed neuro problems. Starting to see subtle changes already. This man's story is phenomenal. I'm very happy for him. Thank you. ❤
I'm over a year on carnivore. It changed EVERYTHING. When I started I was swiftly heading for a wheelchair, with my ankle basically to the point of "bone on bone" (crunching, OUCH). It was much better in a matter of DAYS, (pain gone) and basically cured in a couple of months. Lost all extra fat within weeks. No more anxiety within a month. I cheat though. Too much. But less and less now. I find that this takes ZERO willpower. Never feel hungry. I can easily (and naturally want to) fast - now that my body is mostly healed and very nourished.
@Skelterbane69 honestly i feel my best when I eat a balanced diet. A variety of Meats, potatoes, and veggies, 3 or 4 times a day. These fad diets are a pain in the butt.
Seeing this man’s joy brings me joy. What a testimony. I was living the carnivore life a while back and had never felt better. I was ripped too, working out several times a week. I fell off the wagon for a little while and have fell back so much. I’m now starting back and already know how much it will benefit me. I cannot understand why I ever stopped. There are lots of great testimonies out there praising the carnivore lifestyle, but this is the best, by far, I have seen. Thanks a bunch for this interview.
I've been on carnivore since July 22nd this year. I'm 64 and have shrunk from size 3xl shirts to loose Xl shirts. My waist has shrunk from 38 inches to 36 inches. Not once have I thought about eating anything not on carnivore. My resting heart rate is 60 bpm. I feel fantastic and haven't felt this healthy since my 40's.
Im 40 and you sound like you feel much MUCH better then i do right now. I wanna do the carnivore diet by im really scared honestly. Im glad to hear that your doing amazing, i hope i can pull the trigger and do the same.
@@practicalguy973 I wondered the same thing, I had circulation problems before carnivore. My legs would go numb just from crossing my legs. My arms would go numb from sleeping on my sides. Now all those problems are gone. When I have a CAC test I will get the results out there. My blood pressure went from 135/95 to 100/60 with zero exercise. I never could get my diastolic blood pressure number below 80. Diastolic is your low blood pressure number. diastolic is the worst possible sign of cardiovascular disease. The higher, the number, the more likely the disease .
I am soooooo encouraged by this. I'm 70 yrs young and have had Type 2 Diabetes for 20 yrs and have chronic arthritis in 75% of my joints with inflammation, Insomnia, anxiety, depression. CCL Been doing keto on and offor 3 yrs. Need to lose 20 kilo. This video has inspired me to do Carnevore
Just a suggestion. Check your pH. (Potential Hydrogen). Diabetes is insulin resistance, add more insulin and become more resistant doctors are now saying. Your body will protect itself from acid, it needs body fat to put that acid to safeguard your vital organs, so you cannot lose weight if you are acidic. There was a video of a young girl who stopped insulin injections because of the change in her diet and pH above 7. So alkaline. We are electric. Jesus said my people perish for lack of knowledge. God Bless good luck with your research. Try Dr John Bergman or Sam Bailey
@1960ARC yep I know about what you mentioned. I don't take insulin. Just Diabex. Exercise and very low carb. I live with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia as well. Hoping Carnivore will help. Thanks for your advice.😁
@@genevievehandley7106 it's been suggested that the C can not exist inside an alkaline body (7+) Also if you haven't already, consider looking into bitter apricot kernels.
I was a Vegan for 5 years . I have Fybromyalgia. I have IBS too also heart irregular heart beats . Like racing heart while I’m in bed relaxing. I’m going to try this . Thank you . 🙏
I'm excited for you! I made the leap in November after 40ish years of depression and suicidal ideation. 12 years strict vegetarian then 23 years pescatarian. I'm getting my Mojo back - and I don't take any sh*t!
This is almost exactly why I started carnivore about a month ago…I am a landscaper, and I was working on a large planting project, and I was in so much pain in my toes, and so depressed, and I knew I had to make a change. Not even sure how I found carnivore, but it has already changed my life. My inflammation went down in two days and my foot pain is almost gone, my depression and anxiety is gone. I had a new, small patch of psoriasis starting on my shin, and it completely disappeared. I have so much energy and focus and clarity. I lost ten pounds, 180 to 170. My muscles are getting so tone. So many positive effects. So appreciative of all the carnivore advocates! ❤
Following many good carnivore channels like this from The Netherlands. I quit junk food in the beginning of June this year. Weighed about 125 kg (275 lbs) at the time. After a few weeks eating “healthy” but only noticing little progress I started keto because I heard some friends talking about it all the time. A month on keto I noticed a lot of positive changes. Mostly weight loss, better sleeping and also a decrease in depression. I was feeling better than ever, and was now allready following some low/no carb channels on youtube and had heard and read many stories about how going carnivore put all the positive changes I was experiencing in hyperdrive. I decided to try it for myself and have been carnivore since August. I eat mostly beef burger patties I make myself out of the scraps of 80/20 beef I buy in bulk from my local butcher. Costs me 8 euros per kg. Also I eat a lot of eggs, butter and some chicken, pork and fish. I started this for weight loss. I lost 28 kg (62 lbs) so far and now weigh 97 kg (213 lbs), and the weight is still dropping fast without any real effort. Stuffing my face full of meat every day. But the most wonderfull thing is this: losing weight has now become secundary to all the other changes I had not expected: 1. Depression lifted completely 2. Not overly worrying about useless stuff anymore 3. Not easily agitated anymore 4. Not fearfull in social settings anymore 5. I fall asleep quicker 6. I sleep deeper 7. I sleep shorter 8. No hunger, no cravings for food 9. Full of energy the entire day 10. Mind a lot sharper 11. No loose skin even after weight loss 14. Gaining muscle like crazy doing a full body workout twice a week 15. No muscle pains after training when I eat enough meat. 16. Acne mostly gone, though pork still causes some.. 17. Rosecia clearing up 18. Pain caused by flat feet is gone 19. Wounds from chronic ingrown toe-nails healed and have not come back yet.. 20. I barely sweat anymore 21. Better body odor in general 22. No plaque on my teeth anymore 23. Nose completely open all day, I can smell a lot better 24. Barely having to crap or fart anymore 25. No weird stomach noises anymore 26. Better able to cope with heat and cold I feel this list is not yet complete as I am still adjusting to this new way of life. For those still in doubt about going carnivore.. just try it for some time and quit if you don’t experience any benefits.
I have a friend and neighbour who has been eating carnivore for a year and although I have seen the positive results for her such as weight loss and her inflammation gone, I have still been skeptical. I have been watching various carnivore videos all day. This one really stood out for me, probably because I relate to the anxiety, depression, sense of hopelessness. I really want to change this and have tried so many things apart from carnivore. I think it's time❤
Please do it! Myself and my husband both have our spark back that we haven't since being teens. You will feel so much better. My anxiety and depression is gone. It's the biggest gift you can ever receive
Awesome! I was 584 pounds and, last I checked, I'm down to 340. I did most of that on Keto + Youngevity supplements. Over the last three months, I've been trying to do carnivore, but cost is an issue. So, I tend to do strict carnivore for a week, then do a week of just coffee + butter and multivitamins until my next paycheck arrives. I don't have access to a scale at the moment, but I'm definitely noticing my clothes getting more loose as well as other symptoms have gone away. I had this weird urinary tract pain, and if I stay away from plants, then that weird pain doesn't come back.
Bravo, Ken! Now you just need to stop wasting all that money on the quack's supplements so you can buy more meat/butter/eggs. :) Seriously though, sell the rest of those supplements, or at least don't buy any more. There are several videos out there about cheap ways to do carnivore... Keep on keeping on! :)
Remember, hotdogs and bologna are still meat! Though be sure to check the nutrition facts- Oscar Mayers for instance puts corn starch and corn syrup in theirs. Anything over 1g carbs try and stay away from, means there's too much filler/binder
Ask around, health food store if in a city, for local grass fed beef farmers. Many will work a deal on prices, especially when they hear how well you are doing. I would... SW MO
My friend was told by doctors due to his "incurable" heart issues he'd be dead in 30 days. He went all meat. 90 days later, he had no chest pain, no breathing issues, depression was largely gone. He lost 40 lbs. He was A NEW MAN. Dr's actually shunned him and said he was a fool for doing it. No congratulations on NOT BEING DEAD, no curiosity on how it happened... just scorn and smugness. I have gone 90% Meat, all grass fed high quality stuff. It's pricey, but since I don't get a ton of extra CRAP food its totally doable.
That's a sensible way to look at the cost. Just think of all the money we spend on processed food! The smugness of the doctors is inexcusable. Doctors should be in servicing themselves on how to proceed when success is achieved outside of their practice. There should be some type of oversight which includes an interview and documentation that the medical profession can actually use to better their craft.
I just counted and I’m at day 100 on carnivore! It’s been a great journey so far. I started a month before major surgery and I believe that it helped enormously with lack of inflammation and the promotion of healing. I’ve lost 20 lbs, which is fairly miraculous for me at 70 years of age. I feel fantastic and don’t plan to eat any other way going forward.
you could lose that water weight without having to restrict to just meat lol . I wish people would actually find proper logic of the scientific link to our bodys are desgined for plants/herbs not meat. Crazy to think that ? Well facts are facts and thats the truth.
I’ve tried carnivore off and on for a couple of years. When I am fully carnivore everything is better…mental health, joint pain, water retention, hormones…then I fall off. This interview has reinvigorated my commitment. I’m not mentally healthy right now…Kerry, you’re honesty hits home. Thank you ❤
Princess, the thing about motivation is that it's never there when you need it the most. You can't rely on your emotions to get you through difficult challenges. You need to learn self-control so that you can continue towards your goals despite how you feel that day. This new found invigoration will die off within a few days/weeks/months and you'll fall back into old habits unless you learn to push through even when you really, really don't want to.
The things you were eating other than meat were smothered in what though? Prepared how? Of course eating only boring meat would possibly alleviate at this point..
You wouldn't feed white bread to ducks because there's no nutrition in it, and you wouldn't give pop and juice to your dog because you don't want them sugar addicted. You can't look after anyone until you look after yourself.
I love this story. I too have an irregular heart beat and mitral valve prolapse (MVP), which I was diagnosed with at 18 y/o. I’m currently 41 y/o and started carnivore at the beginning of the year. Before switching, I would experience heart palpation daily, multiple times a day. I had anxiety really bad and everyday I would think was my last because of the severity of the palpations. Since switching, my anxiety levels have lessened and my heart palpations have decreased to almost nothing. I do cheat on the diet 😒 and when I do, my anxiety and palpations come back.. I am so happy I have found this video because I have had so many questions answered by watching this! Thank you so much for sharing your story!!
Great timing! I needed to see this today! Today, I had my annual physical from a new caregiver PA. She was concerned about my heart condition. I've had a heart murmur all my life, but only recently I've been sitting very quietly and my heart will suddenly start racing. She's sending me for a test on Monday. She also told me that I am now pre-diabetic. I'm 63 and about 35 lbs over-weight. I talked to her about keto and IF, but did not mention carnivore, and I could tell she was biting her tongue. She knows I'll do what I'm going to do, and only commented that she would like to follow up in six months. I've been doing IF for several months now, and I've been working my way up to eating one meal a day. Interestingly, my arthritic thumbs are feeling better. Also, for about a month I've been looking into carnivore, which is how I found you. I've been trying to start the carnivore, but have failed miserably. So, you can imagine, I'm feeling a little shell-shocked this evening, and was very interested when I stumbled across this video. In fact, I hung on to every word. I've now doubled-down on my resolve to launch my new carnivore diet, and watching this video has given me encouragement and increased my resolve. My PA is going to be following up on my symptoms, so she and I will both be able to see how well carnivore works for me, even if she doesn't know what I'm doing. I made it through yesterday without eating any carbs, and have now made it through most of today. Baby steps, right? Many thanks to you and Kerry for the info and encouragement! Wish me luck!
Thank you, Rina & Kerry, for your upfront honesty! I find it miraculous how Carnivore improves the mental health of our lives. I have read it in the comments, over and over, of literally hundreds of people who have been set free of depression and anxiety, along with SOOO many other physical maladies. I can, also, Thank You Lord, include myself in that number 😊❤😊
This guy nailed it. Glad he's better now! On a more technical note, Ketosis helped me in every way save one: gut/butt pain. When I pushed carbs off my plate, I replaced them with greens, and it took me a WHILE to realize they were decomposing in my gut like a gag of grass clippings in the summer heat and causing me pain. It was worst after dinner / overnight, as that's when I'd load up on broccoli, dark green veggies, etc... I thought I had Restless Leg Syndrome because I was in pain back / down there and completely, well, restless. Carnivore fixed it IMMEDIATELY. And at 48, I have NEVER felt better. 👍🏻
My journey with carnivore (occasionally keto) started in July of this year after being on “diets” and counting calories for years. So far I have gone from 156 to 130 as of today! With prior diets I would lose a pound, gain a pound, lose two pounds, gain two pounds. I had trouble with inflammation, bloating, and edema. I was no longer able to have any dairy from the congestion it caused. I started with just carnivore and occasionally do keto as well, but I did notice I lose weight faster when doing just carnivore. The great thing is all the inflammation, bloating and edema are gone and I feel amazing! I’m back to having skinny ankles! The best thing is by reducing the inflammatory response by cutting out all the carbs, I can now have dairy again without ANY issues! It’s too bad more do not do their research like many have on this and other channels. I work in healthcare and I’m tired of people thinking they can slap a pill on the problem like a bandaid. I see younger and younger having heart attacks, even in their 30’s! There was a great documentary movie called Escape Fire, The Fight To Rescue American Healthcare back in 2012 and nothing has changed or improved since then, except the increased healthcare costs (it’s available on UA-cam for free.) 13 lbs to go for my goal weight…my 60th birthday present to myself! Many of you are such an inspiration!! Keep up the good work. If we keep going and build this community, we will eventually have enough scientific data to prove the typical American diet is deadly!
Hi guys Just building my meat locker now for my own cows and pigs. Can't wait to start. How can doctors allow patients to take 20+ medications? Thats ridiculous. Love this channel❤️
@beastbombshell3589 My sister-in-law died ( cancer) her sons were astounded at the amount of pills from 5 different doctors prescribed over the years. Which she had kept, and possibly used still.
It's good to talk so openly like this because someone will be experiencing something similar and have no clue what the heck is going on and it really is important for friends and family to also have an understanding of how dark it can be. I've experienced all this as well and I didn't know what to do and professionals were of little help. You do just have to keep going until it passes because everything does pass and there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Loved this interview - Kerry opening up about the depths of his depression/despair got me teary eyed. I appreciate his honesty and I think his story could give others hope.
Asked my doc about carnivore, told me it was unhealthy and would make my breath stink. Um, ok, this from an obese practitioner who’s on ozempic. Little does he know I’ve been eating this way for 8 months. Anxiety and depression gone, aches and pains gone, clearer vision, stable moods. Food freedom, no cravings. Love this lifestyle.
Oh I did the same thing “Yes doctor, each meal has 5 ounces of lean protein, 1/2 cup rice, half the plate with salad, etc….” She told me great don’t change a thing. Meanwhile all I’ve been eating is eggs, bacon and rib eyes. 😂
I just had to stop this video real quick and really congratulate his wife. For her to stay with him and support him through all of this is just absolutely amazing. Most women nowadays would be looking for the greener grass on the other side of the fence!
Correction MOST MEN would leave their wife, and actually statistics do prove that men leave their wife if she becomes sick for an extended period of time or even if she receives a terminal diagnosis. Men don't even wait until the terminal sickness actually takes a hold of their wife. They just leave when they find out how much support and WORK will be required of them! MOST WIVES STAY! Personally, I believe that women should follow the men's lead on their behavior in this manner. That's why one of the first questions I ask a man on a date is, "What kind of illnesses are you dealing with? and How many medications are you currently taking?" I've found that most men are careless about their health, so it's best to just assume that they are dealing with one sickness or another and I am never wrong. Then, I ghost them. I refuse to be a hospice wife, especially since ALL DATA has proven that most men never do the same for their wife. These are facts! Just look it up for yourself.
I was looking for this comment. She deserves applause bc she was taking care of four children and her husband. So glad he found the answer and is living his life fully! Cheers to both! True love. ❤️
Pretty amazing, he had comments on his channel a year ago warning his wife to hurry up and lose weight because he looked so much better than she did. This couple isn't going anywhere. They are soooo in love. Absolutely love them.❤
I am on day 120 of the carnivore diet. I have gone from 328 pounds to this mornings weigh-in at 264 pounds. 64 pounds in 120 days is beyond anything I could hope for. Most of the other benefits Kerry describes in this video is the same for me.
There was a dude on You Tube who was always on carnivore diet and he worked out, did cardio everyday and was in solid muscular athletic shape. His Apple Watch one day suddenly gave him a heart warning. He went in, and he had multiple blocked arteries. He now has stents and will be on a Statin for the rest of his life. Stay away from red meat and dairy.
Do you have any loose skin as a result of the weight loss? I too was 328 and am down to 310 as a result of being on low carb. I fear having loose skin but am willing to deal with it if it means a longer and happier life
When I was diagnosed with CHF and irregular heartbeat at 55, I was devastated, so sad, depressed, angry and could not forgive myself. sleep apnea was also one of the cause. I never told anyone except of course my husband as one time a spiritual friend told me that I didn't loved myself enough so that was the cause.... I searched 24/7 online and came across carnivore diet (or PKD). I new keto but could not maintain it. So after 6 months my heart function improved from 25% , stage 4, to 60% and 60% for my age is the norm, was what the cardiologist said. Unfortunately I can't find a cardiologist here in Hungary (I'm Dutch) that will help me taper of my medication, so I will figure it out myself. THANX for the content, I feel so related that I cried.
This is one of the most inspirational videos I have seen on this subject. Everything that was mentioned I was able to relate to and recognised these symptoms in my husband, daughter and granddaughter as well as myself. I had already commenced Carnivore myself but I now have this video to inspire my family and friends who are also suffering with many of the ailments mentioned. Thank you for posting this and helping so many people.
Kerry, I stumbled upon your 64 day update video about carnivore. Thought eating meat only was crazy, but your passion motivated me to try it. Am now 117 days carnivore. Down 34 lbs. Was diagnosed type 2 diabetic. My last blood test, A1c was 5.3, down from 7.6. Blood glucose tests after meals are in a very good range now. Blood pressure has come down. Feeling good! My doctor thought I was nuts to be eating only meat, but my body says "keep it up!" Thanks so much for sharing your carnivore journey on youtube.
@@debbiehuebotter9800 people can claim to be only eating meat meanwhile they are eating plants in the form of pills ecetera for medicine and more.. anything you put in your mouth that you swallow is essentially eating and if it's not meat its not a " only eat meat diet" You don't need to eat animals as the vehicle to get nutrition for yourself. Animals should be left to be not killed to be eaten
This conversation is truly HEROIC! Been there too! Better now. Carnivore after 5 heart bypass surgery. My metabolic numbers are great. Can’t believe how brainwashed I have been! Still struggling with that. Namaste ❤️
I love Kerry! Such a genuine heartfelt man. He and I started carnivore the exact same day. I did not have a lot of the medical problems he had, but I’ve had success. I’ve lost 40 pounds. No more IBS. I have improved aches and pains. Brain fog and fatigue are still intermittent. I’m sleeping better.
@@-whackd I’ve done it all. What I think was happening was dawn phenomenon. My blood sugar was dipping too low when asleep and my cortisol was excreting too early to increase my blood sugar. I would have my last meal at 4/5pm and would wake up at 2/3am. I’m now eating a bit later, at 6:30-7 and I’m sleeping through the night. I do my fasting from 7p-11a. This schedule has fixed my sleep issues 100%.
Congratulations to you all! I was having a hard time getting enough deep sleep and just this week I realized that if I have a spoonful of butter just before going to sleep , I end up sleeping better and getting enough deep sleep. I’ve been feeling so much better the next day!
EMF exposure. Grounding as much as you can (while sleeping to) Limit your plastic exposure, wear cotton and wool clothing instead of polyester and your bed cloths also be cotton or wool, wash your cloths and bed cloths in white vinegar, get as much sunlight as you can, drink re mineralized reverse osmosis or distilled water in a glass or stainless steel container, do resistance exercise (while grounded), and lastly if you're doing carnivore, eat grass fed AND finished meat with PLENTY of animal fats (Try to consume only red meat if you can) and don't calorie restrict.. Avoid straight lines like in the city, buildings, warehouses and be in nature as much as possible, Sleep as much as you can WITHOUT an alarm cloth. Do all these and I promise your brain fog and fatigue will disappear.
Depression can be horrible. Went through same for almost a decade, still have some. Gods word/Bible study kept me alive. Can’t imagine how he supported his family. I pushed and kept working to support my family. Decided couldn’t end my life cuz terrible testimony to your children. I suffer from weight & fatty liver. Thinking of trying carnivore. Have intermittent fasted for 3.5 months and dropped 10 pounds but still sugar cravings.
You sharing your story so completely, will save more than a few lives. I wish my husbands life could have been saved, too. He had all of it-depression, snoring, insomnia, as well as headaches and eventually two bleeding ulcers, type 2 diabetes, valley fever, and then a massive heart attack. He also had anxiety and was in sales. I feel so sad to know we didn’t know what to do and no one helped him. Keep getting it out there! God bless you and I am so happy you are a success story! ❤️🙏🏻
Thank you so much for doing this interview!! I tried carnivore for 3 months and it changed everything for me! I fell off the wagon and all the mental and physical pain came back. This has inspired me to do it again. I have years of disease and chronic pain to erase. Love your journey and your passion. Thanks again.
I find this so interesting... for nearly every carnivore success story (and there are a TON of incredible testimonies), there seems to be an equal number of people who say they have fallen off the wagon. Any idea why this is the case? When the results are so good, why would people ever go back? I guess it just goes to show what an incredible amount of power foods can hold over us!
@warrenthiessen4682 Because it does get a bit boring. I did it for a year, and then slid back into my old patterns. My main problem is my knees. I avoid junk food and processed food, but I do love a variety of food, and I love experimenting with cooking. But now my arthritic knees are very painful, so I am beginning carnivore again. Like Kerry, I can't moderate. I've never had health issues or been overweight, it's just my knees. I do think the boredom and lack of variety is a major reason why people 'fall off the wagon'.
@annlewis3674 Mmhmm there are ways to mitigate that but like I always say, "What works for Jack won't work for John." You have to figure out for yourself what will work for YOU. Lots of help out there for this but in the end, only your body will really have the answer.
OMG I love this video. I'm just starting the carnivore diet today. My body is completely fubar'd with arthritis. I've had small flare ups over the year and even went blind/severe uveitis a couple years ago. I've had hundreds of tests at the VA and they never really pinpointed/diagnosed the problem. Recently I had to go to urgent care (Aug 9 and Aug 21), the pain in my shoulders, hip and lower back is horrendous. I was given prednisone the first visit then celecoxib the second visit. The Dr said I had Ankylosing Spondylitis. Not good!! Hope this diet works. I can't sleep on my right side. So painful. I also saw Mckailah Peterson's video today. Inspiring!!
I was also drawn into the Carnivore community via YT's algorithm that offered me a Dante Ferrigno/Ferrigno Freedom video. Kerry is a very special man. I've watched so many of Kerry's videos and had already heard most of these stories but to put it all together in one conversation is so powerful. I appreciate that he was willing to not 'sugar coat' any of the details of his experience. I think there are far more people who 'white knuckle' through life like Kerry, myself included, than any of us can even begin to conceive. I wish I had access to more resources to help him in his mission to produce this important documentary about the Carnivore Diet. His story and the stories of so many that will be featured in the film will cast a lifeline to millions of people who just need a little hope. Great interview!
I’ve been watching Kerry’s videos for a few months now and this is by far the best interview/video about him as he doesn’t really give a full blown overview on his own videos (I suspect because there is sooo much!) It explains more about his story & carnivore journey. I had no idea his body was in such a mess. It just goes to show even if your body/brain is in a total hopeless mess, carnivore can and will save you! Thanks for this interview Rina, I’m sure his subscribers will increase substantially after this! Really interesting video. ❤
I could have written this myself . I've been following Kerry since his first 30-day video. This is by far the most in-depth inspirational interview . It should be added to the movie. ❤
Your story about your struggle( both of you I know ) And your willingness to be vulnerable Is very admirable and also hard to know that you went through that with your two little girls You’re a warrior You did it brother And you will be the optimal father for the rest of your long life
i have been struggling with depression for some years now , i have been suicidal sad mad everything , i have felt very lost and i have known of the carnivore diet for some time , but did not now about what good it could do , and Dr Berry popped up on my youtube yesterday but i have tried keto but couldnt be consistent , but yesterday i sort of got an ephiny, and some how it just clicked i have to go carnivore , and i got very emtional over it i dont know why , but yeah i have been struggling with weight most of my adult life too, and anxiety , but i dont know yesterday it just clicked , cause i have been like begging for an answer , i even started praying but yeah yesterday i just felt like this is what i have to do, i am only one day in now but i feel like this is the lifestyle that is going to help me, i am thankful for people like you on youtube because thats really what made me start.
@@tinygold772 Hi i am actually much better than i was before and i started on the carnivore lifestyle 28th of december, and my mood is much better than before still have some cravings though, but i have stopped smoking aswell for 8 days ago
@@madusimo1 hi i started carnivore on 28th of december , i am not really depressed anymore i had a slip up after 10 days , i ate pizza but got right back at it even stopped smoking have been a smoker since i was 15 now 31 , smoke free for 9 days now
One of the best interviews on the Carnivore diet. Truly amazing! Carnivore certainly fixed a lot of my health issues so I'm a big fan. Thanks so much Reena!
Thanks so much for this interview. I’m about to start carnivore. I have been on Keto on and off, loose some put some back on. It’s so annoying. I’m on anti depressants, high blood pressure, thyroid and cholesterol medication since start of perimenopause for the last 10 years. Put on 25 kg in 6 months 10 years ago and cannot get it off. You said “losing weight is easy.” I can say that losing weight was easy before perimenopause. I’m 55yo. I have not been able to budge this weight at all. This has just confirmed that I have to give this lifestyle a go. Thanks again. I’ll check back in after 30 days to let you know how it’s gone. 😊
Hi. I saw a specialist saying having 300 for cholesterol is not high. Thats actually healthy. So if you have it lower it actually is a bit of problem. I hope this helps în some weird way. I dont know your cholesterol but maybe it still can be helpful
Fantastic testimony! Thank you so much. I’m 73 yr old and on Day 18. I lost 3.5 lbs in first week and a half and this last 8 days stayed the same. You Cary, have encouraged me to just keep doing it. I’m with you with the life long “stuff” from thyroid goiter at 27 at 105 lbs to appendicitis with my third pregnancy at 34 to gall bladder surgery (in Guatemala!!) at age 58. All the while unable to lose a lb no matter how little I ate. IBS for last 12 years completely caused huge debilitating lifestyle. I decided to try again and this time for real! Let’s do this!❤
Day 42 here 6 weeks in just wanted to say keep going and focus on your non scale victories the scales will move eventually. The scales went up for me (not by too much) before they started going down but i went from zero energy to running up stairs and going to the gym and enjoying it rather than it feeling like a chore. Had poor mental health and anxiety now feeling so much better. Clothes are looser maybe try measurements they're more accurate than the scales anyway. Ive lost about 7 kilos in the 6 weeks so far
Kerry I totally get you now and your mission. This is one of the most powerful testimonials, hard and painful life stories I have heard. All this needs to be talked about more. Thank you for sharing your life's journey with us. Wow. You are such a testament to the Proper Human Diet, and the purest form of Carnivore. You guys knocked it out of the park on this most excellent interview. Thank you.
@@Homesteadhow What about if you ate carnivore plus non-starchy vegetables? Would that be just as successful for you as carnivore? I didn't hear you discuss trying that option.
I’ve suffered from the type of deep depression that the guest describes - it’s like being in a dark pit that you can’t get out of. The late author William Styron describes his experience with it in his book Darkness Visible. I was suicidal. Anti depressants eventually pulled me out of it, but yes, the SSRI’s in particular can make you feel flat and emotionless. I actually talked myself into the depression through negative thinking but it really developed significantly during my pregnancy so it may have been hormonal too. I admire the guest so much for sharing his story.
I had 2 strokes and a quintuple heart bypass before I found out that sugar and carbs were killing me (thanks to UA-cam). I wasn't obese, but I still lost 44 pounds around the waist. Blood pressure improved and is now normal, taking just two tablets (could be over 200/140 on three or more tablets). Reflux and gout went away. My skin is now so soft. I thought I was going to die in less than 5 year, but not any more.
@stefanosprokopis6974 Systolic was over 240 when I had my first stroke. They were preceded by several TIAs. I was very unwell in lots of ways. I now know I was pre-diabetic for many decades, probably started in my twenties. Metabolic disorder is killing us slowly but surely. Sugar, carbs, seed oil, and all processed foods are very bad for us, and most people don't know it.
Thrilled to hear about Maggie. Living in Edmonton, I am so proud of her, and so ashamed that she has been forced to sell off portions of her land, and some of her cattle because of external pressures. She deserves to be celebrated!
When you lack knowledge you parish. I did my research and it made sense. The pyramid is wrong. Red meat does not cause heart disease. Grain’s, oils, corn, soy, high fructose syrup, sunflower oil,safflower oil, canola oils, vegetable oil’s, all dyes in food are bad.
So confusing. Vegans, Mediterranean, Keto, Carnivore, Whole Foods - all claim to be the one and have passionate testimonials on UA-cam. I used to do low carb , real food, haven't eaten stuff with chemicals for years, and the low carb cleared my head and dropped any extra poundage within days. But now, when i try to cut carbs to that degree, even when i give it plenty of time to calm the cravings, my brain goes into revolt and i feel terrible to the point of feeling like im going to have a stroke or something. I no longer know what to do. I don't eat junk food.
I know I feel the same. But I think unless you have a big reason to do such an elimination diet. You can just eat a balanced diet with some intermittent fasting?
This is a phenomenal interview. I am carnivore about a year and have also 100% licked decades long (mostly unmedicated) severe severe depression. It's GONE. I also cured insomnia, also decades, (unfortunately I did take pills for this, shudder to think what I did to my brain.) I have had periods of cheating and never know whether to re-start the days counting from when I am 100% or count from the beginning even though I fell off the wagon (with sugar, pickles, sometimes potatoes.) Determined not to cheat at all. I have no more depression, no more anxiety, brain fog WAAAY better, I am happy, and I sleep deep and well which was unheard of for me. Thank you both for a truly epic carnivore/fativore talk. Can't wait for the documentary!
The medditeranian diet is established as the healthiest out there by the largest studies ever conducted in modern times, why would you choose any other lol
This was so timely for me! I have afib, am overweight and on 3 medications. Today is day 1 on carnivore. Thank you Kerry for sharing this, congratulations of your new life. With your inspiration, I'll find mine.
Way to go! I started to get really sick back in 2018. By 2020 I was about to lose my left middle finger due to chronic inflammation but I clearly remember a doctor asking me to quit eating meat in 2018 which I did and hell was loose open. 5 years eating mostly veggies and some chicken and fish. After doing biological drugs for a year, my middle finger recovered but I found a way out of those meds. For a year now my left index finger has been bothering me and my right wrist. My BP was high 145/110 till two weeks ago. After watching the documentary’The perfect human diet’ on UA-cam on September 26 this year, I decided to take the plunge. Today 13 days in, these are my results: I have lost 5 kg. My wrist hurts no more and the strength I’d lost is coming back. My BP is at 130/90 and at one point today it was 125/85. I stopped craving for carbs. I can breathe without difficulty and play with my kids so easily. My wife feels that in bed I’m like I was 14 years ago. I’m 41 and 1.78 meters tall. Before all this carnivore diet/life style, my weight was out of control 83-85 kg. Now, it’s 77,5 kg.
I think we MUST do our own research (21:41). Fifteen years ago I had myriad, seemingly untelated symptoms. I saw a specialists for each, but left each doctor’s visit with no answers and a huge dose of shaming skepticism as though it were all in my head. I did my own research and diagnosed cancer. Eventually the medical community caught up with me when I ended up in the Emergency Room. Be your own doctor because in the medical community, like any other profession, there is a majority of mediocrity.
Yes. He's really pumped up from doing carnivore. He described how he used to be but since we didn't experience the issues that he went through it might be difficult for us to understand his enthusiasm.
My anxiety before was a daily often hourly part of my life. It's completely gone now. I'm talking to Dr Berry, hosting a 24 hour live stream, officiating a wedding ...any of those things would have paralyzed me before. Thx❤
I have a son like the man in Alaska. I have sent him this video. He has horrendous skin issues and the doctors aren’t helping. I am trying to get jim on carnivore but he keeps cheating and I don’t know how else to help him . Im a health coach, not practicing but i am certified. I can’t seem to help him and he seems hopeless so thank you for this. Maybe he will watch and maybe it will make a difference in his life and health. Thank you
You planted the seed. At least he knows what to do now. Though , you can't save some people. It's frustrating but sometimes you just have to move on from them and help others who want the help
Happy to hear how he overcame his health issues. My journey has been challenging, many times I wanted to end things. Keto helped but not enough. Carnivore sounds so promising. Looking for hope and an answer. Already in my 60s but not too late to have a life! Going to give it a shot! Thanks!
Doctors are absolutely inspired to prescribe medications by the pharmaceutical companies. I know cuz I have a friend who is a doctor. And their highly misinformed or most of them were educated long ago and don't keep up on current facts. I have not heard one negative story about the carnivore diet not one you would think you would see that on UA-cam I can't find anything negative. I'm starting it because I'm going through a lot of what Kerry's gone through. I have severe arthritis, hypothyroidism, insomnia, depression and anxiety you name it. Not to mention I need to lose about 30 lbs. You're both so inspiring, thank you. By the way Rina I love the fact that you listen and don't interrupt who you're interviewing you're a great interviewer.
Great conversation! 20 months on keto/carni 'blend'. Age 66, feeling better than last 20 years. Anxiety and PTSD greatly reduced, almost gone. Inflammation/joint pain gone. Blood pressure and cholesterol normal. Glucose went from 120 to low 80's. A1C about 5.0. I sleep a solid and sound 7 - 8 hours, from unable to sleep or very stressful sleep.
Kerry, I am sitting here listening to you with tears in my eyes, Thank you for sharing your story... It's my story! I feel the hope. Thank you so very much.
Dante and Kerry are saving my life! I stumbled upon both 3 months ago, I am down 46 pounds...started a new job where I have to remember a script (I am on epilepsy meds so memory was TERRIBLE) ankle pain has been gone for 2 months! I love you guys!!
I’ve started carnivore, doing very well with it, and I really believe it’s the way forward. The only thing keeping me from talking much about it to others is this community’s obsession with incendiary, click baity and needlessly misleading screen shots and video titles. Surely this great info can be dispensed without these tactics.
I hope you are spreading the word of your success. I am a cardiac rehab nurse and feel so conflicted when our patients are taught to eat low fat, no red meat, calorie restriction. They get half hearted results if they try at all. I can't tell them different or I'll lose my job. We need more people like you in the patient trenches willing to share your success stories and show this is the way to health!
I am deep diving this weekend on carnivore. My accupuncturist told me on friday. Never heard of it. But my life is horrendous. Im so weak i worry about being able to cook and shop. I have no life. But this video has so many problems the same as mine in different ways. I can see the glow on both your faces. Thank you for your messages that have resonated with me so much. I've also tried multitude of diets over the years with little results. I'm scared that nothing will happen like in the past. But like you said nothing ventured nothing gained. Bless both of you for reaching out with your stories. Much appreciated. ❤
So happy for you brother! I have Crohn's been doing carnivore for 7 months and just no luck yet. I wasn't over weight but lost 10 pounds. I have almost given up a few times but I want to feel better so much more then eating. You have a good wife mine walked away after I got Crohn's, even after 25 years together. Your story keeps me going so thank you!! God bless
@@RedRoyce, I’m so sorry your wife left. 💔 I pray God will bring you someone who will be a true team player and who will stick with you through life’s storms. 🙏🏻 Also, please definitively hang in there!! I’ve had health issues since my teens. I’ve been doing carnivore for about 2 months and starting to see some small changes but not with the symptoms I was most hoping for. Like you, I’m just going to hang in there! I’ve heard it can take up to a year for some people. In the meantime, I am loving how easy it is to prepare my food now, and I enjoy it as well. I also make carnivore treats (I eat dairy) so I don’t feel deprived. I can totally see myself sustaining this for a lifetime. Whether I feel better or not, I love at least knowing I’ll be able to maintain muscle and mobility when I get older! There are so many benefits that make it worthwhile. I hope you soon start feeling better!! 🙏🏻
I’m so sorry that happened to you. I can’t understand why you’d leave someone b/c they have Crohn’s. I have UC (sister to Crohn’s), and I had a rough run of it. I even fasted completely with only water for 35d and it never calmed. I’ve been on Remicade for 16y now and no regrets. It’s a real pain with ins and all, but no regrets. Now I’m hoping carnivore will help my lose weight. I hope you can find remission. ❤️
I know a lady who healed her Crohn's with the bean protocol. Carnivore doesn't help everyone, I wish people wouldn't be so black and white about it. Look up Karen Hurd's bean protocol.
I think this discussion with Kerry is the most inspirational testimony about carnivore I have ever heard and as a result I will be taking this up as a New Years resolution. Never done a New Years Resolution before. It is most effective to go cold turkey on carbohydrates for me and this is an excellent way to do that. I am not in bad shape but the insulin gut is beginning to show and the BMI has risen to 27, although I am a cyclist with muscular legs and upper body. Thanks to you both.
I’m so happy that you found this carnivore diet. Many of your symptoms like your feet and back pain sound like oxalates issues. Be wary that those symptoms can come back around as your body continues to heal. I’m just starting to try a low oxalate diet, so mostly carnivore, but not completely. I don’t want to go through any extreme oxalate purging issues.
Yes and OMG YES! 76 yrs old (kinda lazy) carnivore-🙄 but how many women my age have recently climbed a tall Mayan Pyramid ?! On cruise to Belize - many much younger than Me on the excursion to Mayan ruins - Could Not or wouldn’t even TRY to climb the stairs up! I also deer hunt & eat Loads of Venison! Keep telling these Truths! Great story Kerry ! Will be watching you both !
In my early 40's, I was diagnosed with Crohns. Took medications for it. In my mid 50's, blood pressure was 230/165. All my life my knees hurt me. When Curling I would have to pop pills to reduce the pain. Since Changing to keto and carnivore, All above DISAPPEARED. Gone like it was magic!
Thank you 🙏🏾 for your post!!!! My blood pressure has been similar!!! I’m trying to get it back down to normal. How long did it take you to get your blood pressure down to normal?
🌟 Most importantly is to highlight what type of animal products you should buy bc it is completely irresponsible to not... This community can make a bigger impact on buying as much humanely, ethically & pasture raised animal products as possible...the importance of this and the impact you can make on all these beautiful creatures & the planet is EXPONENTIAL also...be mindful of your choices & THANKFUL! ❤ The other important questions to be asked which we are all curious about are examples of ~what is being eaten along with the cooking methods. Lets support organic farming practices💪
For 13 years I had missed heartbeats. I was tested in the best heart hospital in Europe, as well as years of screening and monitoring my condition. Within two weeks on carnivore diet - missed beat gone! That was 320 days ago, and I haven't stopped eating carnivore.
I am 71 and have suffered from chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, anxiety, peripheral neuropathy, Raynauds disease, chronic sinusitis, for over 25 years. I also developed osteoarthritis of the lower back and two hips, atrial fibrillation, ectopic heart beats, and right ventricular heart block for ten years. I have been mostly a vegetarian over this time. I started yesterday on meat but was unable to tolerate it, so have decided to go paleo first and then slide into carnivore.
I feel so bad for people with depression. It's an enemy like fighting a ghost. Brain chemistry is often involved, but finding a solution is like finding a needle in a haystack! And most doctors will treat you with just drugs. That you've found a nutritional solution is wonderful! I've had success on Keto, but slip into eating junk too often. I'm so fired up by this video that I've got to try the carnivore diet. Carrie's story is wonderful!
That you Kerry, you are the reason I have gone full carnivore, but this time the proper way. Last time I made stews for the family and tried to pick the meat out. That was a fail, because of your story I have done the meat, salt, water, and coffee nothing else. I feel amazing no weight loss yet. It is worth it for no other reason than my pains are almost zero.
I just started carnivore today and now after seeing how excited and healthy and happy Kerry is... I'm even more excited about going on this journey. This is seriously inspiring and I don't say that often. 😊
@@Fortean23 It would be wise to bring back some vegetables though to get your nutrients (vitamin A,C, Potassium), fiber, folate. I went plant based, quit sugar and alcohol a few years ago and it made a huge change in my well being, but I reintroduced meats and cheese and came to this realization....quitting sugar and alcohol was the "cure". Excess sugar and alcohol were the enemies, not the fruits and vegetables.
@@Fortean23 totally normal to have some symptoms in the beginning as the body needs to adjust as well as heal from years of eating the wrong foods, don't start eating vegetables and give your body time to adjust and get used to more fat. Enjoy the health gains going forward.
I had the exact same issues @ 13 as his daughter. Now at 40, I'm almost healed now of hidradenitis suppurtiva (HS) because of carnivore and Jesus' guiding me to it!! ❤❤❤
Incredible story! ❤ So many times got chills from listening. So happy for Kerry and his family. Keep spreading the message 🙏 I am over 3 years on Carnivore 🥩 myself and feel amazing 😊
Kerry, what you experienced is me thru and thru (except that I’m an old woman). Your experience ring true in so many ways. I started carnivore 9 days ago and already noticing changes. Thank you for sharing your story
Love your ‘handle’ (stinkerbell)😂🤣. Like you, I am an older woman, and have gone from keto to carnivore, but haven’t always stayed on track. I am motivated to take it seriously after the holidays, from hearing so many great people’s inspiring stories. Plus, I am slowing down and got slammed by a virus, which I’m usually able to fight off. Still working full-time and becoming depressed that it’s become difficult to get through the week. I needed the reminder that my diet needs to be back on track. Blessings to you on your Carnivore journey👍.
Im glad i found this video. I too have a irregular heart beat that i have delt with all my life and high blood pressure. I started carnivore in august, im down 50 pounds, my snoring has also stopped, but my heart doesnt feel like it used to and feels "normal" which is something i never thought i would experience. My blood pressure also has improved, i dont feel like my head is going to explode when i bend over anymore. I havent had any tests done yet but my body just feels a million times better. And my energy is through the roof! I feel like im 20 years old again!
I have pots and how he describes standing up dizzy every time is how I feel all day. Today is day one on carnivore I’m doing a 30 day start and I’m hopeful for the first time
Doing great. I started because of the rheumatoid arthritis and it only took four days for 90% of the pain to go away and after 28 days I'm still doing great. Also my blood pressure went down from 150/93 to 127/83. I also had a couple of headaches, but I believe that was some kind of withdrawals from the cards and trash I was eating.@@spookie3000
I’ve had depression like that and it’s devastating. There’s a period of six months I didn’t even wash my hair and it got so tangled I had to cut all my hair. I thank God every day im better
I’ve been carnivore 19 weeks tomorrow, but I’ve slipped a lot. After hearing all the things he’s reversed, I am more resolved to keep on this way of eating
Keep in mind, you’re not truly on the carnivore diet, until you stop slipping. Slipups, make you have to repeat the process and gain traction again. You have to remain on ketosis for a long extended period to truly see the results.
@@LetsGetitBoah Hyper carnivore is 70% +, this nonsense notion that you need to be 100% carnivore is B.S., it's ignorance and people need to stop perpetuating this myth. Eat whatever plants you can tolerate, or not, there's no "rule" in carnivore that you canonot eat plants and only zealots make the claim you need to be 100%. You can start at 100% as it is an elimination diet, sure. Anyone doing carnivore should know that. But it's o.k. to reintroduce plants and see what you can tolerate, if any. Some cannot and need to be 100%. but many don't.
@@meatavoreNana oh that’s very challenging! I am the only one in my family eating this way. I felt much weaker at first, now I still get them pizza every Friday and for the past month I haven’t had any myself. I have a hard time getting in enough protein in meat though, so I still drink protein shakes and have an occasional protein bar. I’m sure we’ll both get stronger as we continue on this journey 🙏🏼. I guess I can say I’ve been TRYING carnivorish for the past 100 days 😅.

Rina is gorgeous with that natural carnivore glow :)
Moving story but you should probably have a trigger warning at the beginning of this video since depression and suicide are discussed at length. Thanks for sharing the story.
Hola tina me podrías ayudar solo q no hablo inglés solo español como le ago estoy informándome y yego con hoy 3 días me gustaría tu ayuda
The beef industry is doling out prion diseases and you are promoting carnivore diet for a healthy heart🤣
My doc was somewhat pleased with my weight loss (40 lbs). When I was leaving he said to make sure I'm on a low fat diet. I said ok, and left. Had a fat steak for dinner that night. Those docs are nuts.
LOL
Smart boy most doctors want u sic and weak to get you on thier meds to keep you there ,as they strip your cash and life from you
They know nothing.
Docs have to get past the thought eating fat makes you fat. Utter bullshit. Sheesh
They just do as they're told doctors aren't reading studies and applying new information to patients
I’m a disabled vet . In horrible pain 24/7 gained 70 lbs with hip replacement and Covid . Think about dying everyday. Sleep 1-3 hrs . VA will just lock you up if you seek help . I’m about to do carnivore
Do it vet here myself helps with depression and anxiety energy
Good luck mate. You can do it 💪
DO ITT!!! ONE DAY, or TODAY!!!
Let’s gooooooo!!!
Some people advise transitioning onto it, but if you’re like mist, verrrry addicted to carbs. You’ll feel crappy for 1-4 weeks then it gets much easier. Search successful carnivores tips, and figure out what works for you!!! Don’t be fooled by yourself!, you’re probably an addict too. Some people make it and heal. Others relapse. You got thisssss.
Don’t give up. Never give up. You have the power.
I’m sorry to hear your story. I understand you, I’m in a depression state myself and often it seems there’s no way out. I pray for you, and for myself too, we deserve to feel better. I hope sincerely that you feel better soon. I send you a hug 🤗
Help yourself, you don't have to tell them.
Yep my favorite thing to do is read the comments because you learn Soooo much from them!!!! ❤
ME TOO! :-) I asked my sisters if they ever read comments. One of them and their husband both said they NEVER look at comments. My other sister will sometimes read the comments but never makes a comment.
I LIVE in the comment section because it's so helpful!
Then please read this comment .when the founder of this diet ( dr atkins) dies his autopsy report revealed he was suffering from severe clogged arteries and late stage heart and renal failure.these this guy knows what you like to hear just eat your eggs bacon meat and butter so they can make money on UA-cam.
@@TheRealMonnie me too I know we can learn so much by others who have experienced the same and see what they did. It’s so informative!! Good luck to us all and may God have mercy on us and bless us and this whole world, we need it!!
LOL I couldn't agree more ! Some are very touching, hilarious or inspirational !
@@AlexK26496 yessss!! 😁
You are such an inspiration! I did Carnivore (BBBE) for 60 days in 2021, and lost some weight (30 lbs) ,felt better mentally, slept better, no acid reflux and even our farts diminshed. About 30 days in my inflammation reduced almost gone. The negative was that my psoriasis went through the roof especially on my hands, face and scalp. I stopped it and went back to eating some veggies and fruits thinking i would do keto. It was a gateway back into the SAD diet. Fast forward to now... I am on about 10 meds for BP, anxiety, reflux. I have recently found out that I am sensitive to a TON of foods including PORK, POULTRY, Lamb and VEGGIES/FRUITS> I am at the point of not being able to walk due to arthritis and BP. I think this time I am gonna try just Beef, Butter and Eggs with some seafood that wasn't on my list. Wish me Luck!!!
Keep us updated
Good luck!
What caused all those issues? Carnivore?

I love Kerry's testimony. Wow! Amazing. I will turn 80 in six months. In the past year, I have lost 35 pounds. I am off all arthritis medications and living relatively pain-free.
Are you on that diet?
Just wondering how long it took you to get arthritis relief?
God Bless you guys! I'm so inspired. I'm 360lb male. Depress, and hopeless and I'm 1 week into a Ketovore diet. I have to start somewhere. So here I go! Thanks so much for the inspiration!
Please James Temple give it AT LEAST 90 days! It will transform your life physically,mentally and spiritually! Your brain will begin to clear and allow you to make better choices. Yes you’ll look better physically. Yes you will feel better, but more importantly you will learn how good it feels to be proud of yourself! You can do this! Please reach out when you need support! I am cheering for you because you have begun! You won’t be sorry!❤️🙏
How are you doing so far?
How are you doing I am 7 weeks in myself! :)
I'm on Keto-vore also. I still do well with certain fruits and dairy, and I still indulge in a daily cup of tea with honey in it.
Cutting out all other refined sugars and carbs has already caused me to slim down in size. I eat a lot of red meat, butter and eggs, that's the majority of my diet now. I also like that my arms and legs feel more muscular and dense.

Hope you're feeling better and still.gping strong !
How are you doing?
So far lost 50 pounds, not too worried about heart problems it is what it is can't live past the time the lord made for me.

😭😭😭😭 I'm in a such a long-term insanely huge depression right now. This video was sent to me by a close friend of mine. Starting now I will try my best with this diet and I promise I will come back and check in how it's going. I have insomnia as well. I have fibromyalgia, iron deficiency anemia and 15+ illnesses. Please I have my full hope on this now. I will do my research and come back later on 😭😭😭
Can't wait to hear how it goes. Someone close to me suggested this diet. I'm seriously considering it.
Good luck, I Am personally rooting for you❤❤❤❤
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Tip: add home made bone broth too for your issues, and start the first week only eating ruminants and salt.
I am living proof of severe suicidal depression being reversed. I used to be on Prozac, but now I don't take anything, and I don't have extreme anxiety or depression anymore at all. Go full out carnivore, and you will become the best you!
I had IBS issues, horrible, for 60 years. Then I got on the carnivore diet, and my IBS disappeared. It makes me sick to know I didn't have to go through all that for sixty years.
Holy crap, that sucks. I'm sorry, so glad to hear you're finally free! 😊
Thats really Amazing!
Too bad you had to suffer for so long....better finding out the truth late than never.😊
Me also. I keep it keto but when I did carnivore I liked the results.
how long did it take you for the IBS issues to go away. I have had it for almost 40 years and went on the carnivore about 5 weeks ago. I am still having bad diarrhea and dont know what to do. I am a driver so this is not going to work for me unless I find something to help me soon.
His wife is amazing to put up with him and all his problems for so long. I can’t imagine having to look after triplets and a partner who was so depressed. He is blessed to have such a great wife. I’m so glad he found carnivore and he feels so much better now.
I did'nt read all the comments but I want to honor your wife, Carry, that she was at your side all these horrible years of depression and pain. Wonderful. As wonderful as you made it!!! Congrats!!!
I like this channel a lot! Thank you!
@monikak1139 yes!!!! Your wife is a saint.
The complete lack of emotions is called Anhedonia and is a side effect of many anti-depressants.
I have it. And I'm still depressed. I cant take it.
Curcumin & ashwaghanda can also cause anhedonia in some people.
I’m also Very enthusiastic…I started carnivore 11+ months ago. So many things healed! IBS gone on 2 weeks. Itchy flaky eczema ear problem also gone in less than a month Arthritis hands elbows and shoulder totally pain free and strong in a few months. Gingivitis gums healed and receding gums grew back! Ovarian cyst Gone! And I don’t need reading glasses anymore! Had to share!!
Fantastic!
Can you explain your daily diet and any cooking methods please? Thank you
That's a rather fantastical testimony. I hope it is true.
Wow! Could you please share more of how and what you did ❤ this is so awesome! Thank you for sharing, it serves as great motivation ❤
Receding gums growing back is amazing!
I’m 86 days on carnivore after 12 yrs on vegetarian diet. A lot of inflammation in my joints, of course weight issues and never feeling satiety from eating. Starting to slim down, inflammation is gone, it’s nice not to be grassing all the time, I get asked all the time why I gave up being a vegetarian, I just say it wasn’t working for me anymore. Thank you Rina for all the awareness you bring us. WHERE’S THE BEEF?
Interesting. I was also even on raw and fruit only and it got bad. I was trying keto and I need to get back on keto
Mam, can you please post ur daily diet,, I've been on vegetables, beans, grains and fruits,,,. Joints ache to the level of intolerance with breathlessness. Would be glad if you can post how to get initiated into Carnivore diet. Thanks in advancr
@@drngpawanakumar6637 If you can get your hands on grass-fed beef, you will be good. Also, eat organic eggs and bacon. Sausage is good too. Just make sure it's grass-fed from a farm near you.
Is this a safe way to eat if you have gallstones. Thank you
I have no problem sticking with the carnivore diet because I now have hope. I was on cruise control just waiting to find out when I was going to die from being fat. Videos like this have given me hope.
After just under a month I decided I was going to start exercising. I told myself 20 minutes on the elliptical machine no matter how hard it is. At 20 minutes I was feeling great and I was not huffing and puffing, my heart rate was 138. I decided to go until I wasn’t comfortable anymore. I made it an hour and never struggled to breathe. I am 50 and was never able to do exercise without struggling to breathe.
People cannot fathom clinical depression unless they experience it themselves. People who have would not wish it on their worst enemy. Thank you for sharing your story. To think that depression, social anxiety, sensory overload, cravings.. all that could be prevented by dietary change or at least alleviate it. Your personal accounts are so important in changing other people's lives around. It's when we see how much you changed that we get motivated to follow suit. 🙏
It wasn't clinical, but situational. The man was depressed about his health situation, namely his heart. 99% of the time it's situational, in my opinion. I've been there myself.
I started keto-carnivore 11 days ago due to debilitating and undiagnosed neuro problems. Starting to see subtle changes already. This man's story is phenomenal. I'm very happy for him. Thank you. ❤
I'm over a year on carnivore. It changed EVERYTHING. When I started I was swiftly heading for a wheelchair, with my ankle basically to the point of "bone on bone" (crunching, OUCH). It was much better in a matter of DAYS, (pain gone) and basically cured in a couple of months. Lost all extra fat within weeks. No more anxiety within a month.
I cheat though. Too much. But less and less now. I find that this takes ZERO willpower. Never feel hungry. I can easily (and naturally want to) fast - now that my body is mostly healed and very nourished.
When you're ready, get rid of the veggies. They're poison
@@MikeAnthony1969 For me, it the lack of sauces that are hard to get over.
@Skelterbane69 honestly i feel my best when I eat a balanced diet. A variety of Meats, potatoes, and veggies, 3 or 4 times a day. These fad diets are a pain in the butt.
keto works...not just meat....broccoli...onions...mushrooms..saurkraut...
Seeing this man’s joy brings me joy. What a testimony. I was living the carnivore life a while back and had never felt better. I was ripped too, working out several times a week. I fell off the wagon for a little while and have fell back so much. I’m now starting back and already know how much it will benefit me. I cannot understand why I ever stopped. There are lots of great testimonies out there praising the carnivore lifestyle, but this is the best, by far, I have seen. Thanks a bunch for this interview.
Sugar is 8x's more addictive than cocaine that's why you stopped.
I've been on carnivore since July 22nd this year. I'm 64 and have shrunk from size 3xl shirts to loose Xl shirts. My waist has shrunk from 38 inches to 36 inches. Not once have I thought about eating anything not on carnivore. My resting heart rate is 60 bpm. I feel fantastic and haven't felt this healthy since my 40's.
That’s the biggest thing I’ve noticed, my RHR has gone from 62 to 44, feel significantly better after just 6 weeks
Amazing!
Im 40 and you sound like you feel much MUCH better then i do right now. I wanna do the carnivore diet by im really scared honestly. Im glad to hear that your doing amazing, i hope i can pull the trigger and do the same.
Got to wonder though if eating carnivore only will have long term effects like having more plaque building up in your arteries.
@@practicalguy973 I wondered the same thing, I had circulation problems before carnivore. My legs would go numb just from crossing my legs. My arms would go numb from sleeping on my sides.
Now all those problems are gone. When I have a CAC test I will get the results out there.
My blood pressure went from 135/95 to 100/60 with zero exercise.
I never could get my diastolic blood pressure number below 80. Diastolic is your low blood pressure number. diastolic is the worst possible sign of cardiovascular disease.
The higher, the number, the more likely the disease .
I am soooooo encouraged by this. I'm 70 yrs young and have had Type 2 Diabetes for 20 yrs and have chronic arthritis in 75% of my joints with inflammation, Insomnia, anxiety, depression. CCL Been doing keto on and offor 3 yrs. Need to lose 20 kilo. This video has inspired me to do Carnevore
How about you now, wish you good health 😁

Just a suggestion. Check your pH. (Potential Hydrogen). Diabetes is insulin resistance, add more insulin and become more resistant doctors are now saying.
Your body will protect itself from acid, it needs body fat to put that acid to safeguard your vital organs, so you cannot lose weight if you are acidic.
There was a video of a young girl who stopped insulin injections because of the change in her diet and pH above 7.
So alkaline. We are electric. Jesus said my people perish for lack of knowledge.
God Bless good luck with your research. Try Dr John Bergman or Sam Bailey
@1960ARC yep I know about what you mentioned. I don't take insulin. Just Diabex. Exercise and very low carb. I live with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia as well. Hoping Carnivore will help. Thanks for your advice.😁
@@genevievehandley7106 it's been suggested that the C can not exist inside an alkaline body (7+)
Also if you haven't already, consider looking into bitter apricot kernels.
I was a Vegan for 5 years . I have Fybromyalgia. I have IBS too also heart irregular heart beats . Like racing heart while I’m in bed relaxing. I’m going to try this . Thank you . 🙏
I'm excited for you! I made the leap in November after 40ish years of depression and suicidal ideation. 12 years strict vegetarian then 23 years pescatarian. I'm getting my Mojo back - and I don't take any sh*t!
How are you doing now ?
This is almost exactly why I started carnivore about a month ago…I am a landscaper, and I was working on a large planting project, and I was in so much pain in my toes, and so depressed, and I knew I had to make a change. Not even sure how I found carnivore, but it has already changed my life. My inflammation went down in two days and my foot pain is almost gone, my depression and anxiety is gone. I had a new, small patch of psoriasis starting on my shin, and it completely disappeared. I have so much energy and focus and clarity. I lost ten pounds, 180 to 170. My muscles are getting so tone. So many positive effects. So appreciative of all the carnivore advocates! ❤
So happy for you. Sorry you went through the tough times. Keep it up. You're worth it❤
Wow, you must have had gout
@@happy777abcthanks so much!🙏
Don't give up if/when you begin experiencing bouts of oxalate dumping.
Following many good carnivore channels like this from The Netherlands.
I quit junk food in the beginning of June this year. Weighed about 125 kg (275 lbs) at the time. After a few weeks eating “healthy” but only noticing little progress I started keto because I heard some friends talking about it all the time.
A month on keto I noticed a lot of positive changes. Mostly weight loss, better sleeping and also a decrease in depression.
I was feeling better than ever, and was now allready following some low/no carb channels on youtube and had heard and read many stories about how going carnivore put all the positive changes I was experiencing in hyperdrive. I decided to try it for myself and have been carnivore since August.
I eat mostly beef burger patties I make myself out of the scraps of 80/20 beef I buy in bulk from my local butcher. Costs me 8 euros per kg. Also I eat a lot of eggs, butter and some chicken, pork and fish.
I started this for weight loss. I lost 28 kg (62 lbs) so far and now weigh 97 kg (213 lbs), and the weight is still dropping fast without any real effort. Stuffing my face full of meat every day.
But the most wonderfull thing is this: losing weight has now become secundary to all the other changes I had not expected:
1. Depression lifted completely
2. Not overly worrying about useless stuff anymore
3. Not easily agitated anymore
4. Not fearfull in social settings anymore
5. I fall asleep quicker
6. I sleep deeper
7. I sleep shorter
8. No hunger, no cravings for food
9. Full of energy the entire day
10. Mind a lot sharper
11. No loose skin even after weight loss
14. Gaining muscle like crazy doing a full body workout twice a week
15. No muscle pains after training when I eat enough meat.
16. Acne mostly gone, though pork still causes some..
17. Rosecia clearing up
18. Pain caused by flat feet is gone
19. Wounds from chronic ingrown toe-nails healed and have not come back yet..
20. I barely sweat anymore
21. Better body odor in general
22. No plaque on my teeth anymore
23. Nose completely open all day, I can smell a lot better
24. Barely having to crap or fart anymore
25. No weird stomach noises anymore
26. Better able to cope with heat and cold
I feel this list is not yet complete as I am still adjusting to this new way of life.
For those still in doubt about going carnivore.. just try it for some time and quit if you don’t experience any benefits.
👏🏼🥳
Congratulations!!🎉🎉
But killing animals to eat is morally repulsive .poor animals they deserve their life. Iam a vegan
@@surender7826 Vegan will make you sick. We are made to eat mostly meat.
@@surender7826 tell that to our ancestors who have been doing this for 200 000 + years
I have a friend and neighbour who has been eating carnivore for a year and although I have seen the positive results for her such as weight loss and her inflammation gone, I have still been skeptical. I have been watching various carnivore videos all day. This one really stood out for me, probably because I relate to the anxiety, depression, sense of hopelessness. I really want to change this and have tried so many things apart from carnivore. I think it's time❤
Please do it! Myself and my husband both have our spark back that we haven't since being teens. You will feel so much better. My anxiety and depression is gone. It's the biggest gift you can ever receive
Awesome! I was 584 pounds and, last I checked, I'm down to 340. I did most of that on Keto + Youngevity supplements. Over the last three months, I've been trying to do carnivore, but cost is an issue. So, I tend to do strict carnivore for a week, then do a week of just coffee + butter and multivitamins until my next paycheck arrives. I don't have access to a scale at the moment, but I'm definitely noticing my clothes getting more loose as well as other symptoms have gone away. I had this weird urinary tract pain, and if I stay away from plants, then that weird pain doesn't come back.
Bravo, Ken! Now you just need to stop wasting all that money on the quack's supplements so you can buy more meat/butter/eggs. :) Seriously though, sell the rest of those supplements, or at least don't buy any more. There are several videos out there about cheap ways to do carnivore... Keep on keeping on! :)
Remember, hotdogs and bologna are still meat!
Though be sure to check the nutrition facts- Oscar Mayers for instance puts corn starch and corn syrup in theirs. Anything over 1g carbs try and stay away from, means there's too much filler/binder
Always check for sales and buy extra when you find steak on sale!
@@ThePhillyDz Hard no. Buy high quality ground beef and/or chuck roasts.
Ask around, health food store if in a city, for local grass fed beef farmers. Many will work a deal on prices, especially when they hear how well you are doing. I would... SW MO
Kerry the pain of depression is evident in your voice. Anyone who has been there can understand Exactly what you are saying. God Bless you.
My friend was told by doctors due to his "incurable" heart issues he'd be dead in 30 days. He went all meat. 90 days later, he had no chest pain, no breathing issues, depression was largely gone. He lost 40 lbs. He was A NEW MAN. Dr's actually shunned him and said he was a fool for doing it. No congratulations on NOT BEING DEAD, no curiosity on how it happened... just scorn and smugness.
I have gone 90% Meat, all grass fed high quality stuff. It's pricey, but since I don't get a ton of extra CRAP food its totally doable.
That's a sensible way to look at the cost. Just think of all the money we spend on processed food! The smugness of the doctors is inexcusable. Doctors should be in servicing themselves on how to proceed when success is achieved outside of their practice. There should be some type of oversight which includes an interview and documentation that the medical profession can actually use to better their craft.
Well explained .just want to try this diet cos i hate to depend on drugs
I just counted and I’m at day 100 on carnivore! It’s been a great journey so far. I started a month before major surgery and I believe that it helped enormously with lack of inflammation and the promotion of healing. I’ve lost 20 lbs, which is fairly miraculous for me at 70 years of age. I feel fantastic and don’t plan to eat any other way going forward.
you could lose that water weight without having to restrict to just meat lol . I wish people would actually find proper logic of the scientific link to our bodys are desgined for plants/herbs not meat. Crazy to think that ? Well facts are facts and thats the truth.
That's awesome. I just realized that I am also at day 100 (started July 1st) and doing great as well! Congratulations!
Congratulations!! I’m also at 100 days 🥳.
Wauw
@@denisea.9033 Congratulations to you too! Best wishes going forward.
I’ve tried carnivore off and on for a couple of years. When I am fully carnivore everything is better…mental health, joint pain, water retention, hormones…then I fall off. This interview has reinvigorated my commitment. I’m not mentally healthy right now…Kerry, you’re honesty hits home. Thank you ❤
I know the feeling.. been on and off since mid-February, 20kg down . I'm going to have to start again.
I am the same.
Princess, the thing about motivation is that it's never there when you need it the most. You can't rely on your emotions to get you through difficult challenges. You need to learn self-control so that you can continue towards your goals despite how you feel that day. This new found invigoration will die off within a few days/weeks/months and you'll fall back into old habits unless you learn to push through even when you really, really don't want to.
The things you were eating other than meat were smothered in what though? Prepared how? Of course eating only boring meat would possibly alleviate at this point..
You wouldn't feed white bread to ducks because there's no nutrition in it, and you wouldn't give pop and juice to your dog because you don't want them sugar addicted. You can't look after anyone until you look after yourself.
I love this story. I too have an irregular heart beat and mitral valve prolapse (MVP), which I was diagnosed with at 18 y/o. I’m currently 41 y/o and started carnivore at the beginning of the year. Before switching, I would experience heart palpation daily, multiple times a day. I had anxiety really bad and everyday I would think was my last because of the severity of the palpations. Since switching, my anxiety levels have lessened and my heart palpations have decreased to almost nothing. I do cheat on the diet 😒 and when I do, my anxiety and palpations come back.. I am so happy I have found this video because I have had so many questions answered by watching this! Thank you so much for sharing your story!!
Sardines are very good the heart and brain. I try and eat them everyday.
Great timing! I needed to see this today!
Today, I had my annual physical from a new caregiver PA. She was concerned about my heart condition. I've had a heart murmur all my life, but only recently I've been sitting very quietly and my heart will suddenly start racing. She's sending me for a test on Monday. She also told me that I am now pre-diabetic. I'm 63 and about 35 lbs over-weight.
I talked to her about keto and IF, but did not mention carnivore, and I could tell she was biting her tongue. She knows I'll do what I'm going to do, and only commented that she would like to follow up in six months. I've been doing IF for several months now, and I've been working my way up to eating one meal a day. Interestingly, my arthritic thumbs are feeling better. Also, for about a month I've been looking into carnivore, which is how I found you. I've been trying to start the carnivore, but have failed miserably.
So, you can imagine, I'm feeling a little shell-shocked this evening, and was very interested when I stumbled across this video. In fact, I hung on to every word. I've now doubled-down on my resolve to launch my new carnivore diet, and watching this video has given me encouragement and increased my resolve. My PA is going to be following up on my symptoms, so she and I will both be able to see how well carnivore works for me, even if she doesn't know what I'm doing. I made it through yesterday without eating any carbs, and have now made it through most of today. Baby steps, right?
Many thanks to you and Kerry for the info and encouragement! Wish me luck!
You got this!
You got this!
Good luck Tracy show her show yourself your stronger than you think 👏👏🙏
You have begun your journey! Kudos to you!🥳
Good luck. You can do this.
Thank you, Rina & Kerry, for your upfront honesty! I find it miraculous how Carnivore improves the mental health of our lives. I have read it in the comments, over and over, of literally hundreds of people who have been set free of depression and anxiety, along with SOOO many other physical maladies. I can, also, Thank You Lord, include myself in that number 😊❤😊
This guy nailed it. Glad he's better now!
On a more technical note, Ketosis helped me in every way save one: gut/butt pain. When I pushed carbs off my plate, I replaced them with greens, and it took me a WHILE to realize they were decomposing in my gut like a gag of grass clippings in the summer heat and causing me pain. It was worst after dinner / overnight, as that's when I'd load up on broccoli, dark green veggies, etc... I thought I had Restless Leg Syndrome because I was in pain back / down there and completely, well, restless.
Carnivore fixed it IMMEDIATELY. And at 48, I have NEVER felt better. 👍🏻
My journey with carnivore (occasionally keto) started in July of this year after being on “diets” and counting calories for years. So far I have gone from 156 to 130 as of today! With prior diets I would lose a pound, gain a pound, lose two pounds, gain two pounds. I had trouble with inflammation, bloating, and edema. I was no longer able to have any dairy from the congestion it caused. I started with just carnivore and occasionally do keto as well, but I did notice I lose weight faster when doing just carnivore. The great thing is all the inflammation, bloating and edema are gone and I feel amazing! I’m back to having skinny ankles! The best thing is by reducing the inflammatory response by cutting out all the carbs, I can now have dairy again without ANY issues! It’s too bad more do not do their research like many have on this and other channels. I work in healthcare and I’m tired of people thinking they can slap a pill on the problem like a bandaid. I see younger and younger having heart attacks, even in their 30’s! There was a great documentary movie called Escape Fire, The Fight To Rescue American Healthcare back in 2012 and nothing has changed or improved since then, except the increased healthcare costs (it’s available on UA-cam for free.) 13 lbs to go for my goal weight…my 60th birthday present to myself! Many of you are such an inspiration!! Keep up the good work. If we keep going and build this community, we will eventually have enough scientific data to prove the typical American diet is deadly!
Hi so do you eat eggs...
Happy for the skinny ankles....
Hi guys
Just building my meat locker now for my own cows and pigs. Can't wait to start.
How can doctors allow patients to take 20+ medications? Thats ridiculous.
Love this channel❤️
@beastbombshell3589 My sister-in-law died ( cancer) her sons were astounded at the amount of pills from 5 different doctors prescribed over the years. Which she had kept, and possibly used still.
It's good to talk so openly like this because someone will be experiencing something similar and have no clue what the heck is going on and it really is important for friends and family to also have an understanding of how dark it can be. I've experienced all this as well and I didn't know what to do and professionals were of little help. You do just have to keep going until it passes because everything does pass and there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Loved this interview - Kerry opening up about the depths of his depression/despair got me teary eyed. I appreciate his honesty and I think his story could give others hope.
Thank you. It's more important for me to be vulnerable and uncomfortable if it means it can give 1 person who is hopeless some hope
Asked my doc about carnivore, told me it was unhealthy and would make my breath stink. Um, ok, this from an obese practitioner who’s on ozempic.
Little does he know I’ve been eating this way for 8 months. Anxiety and depression gone, aches and pains gone, clearer vision, stable moods.
Food freedom, no cravings.
Love this lifestyle.
What about your breath?
Oh I did the same thing “Yes doctor, each meal has 5 ounces of lean protein, 1/2 cup rice, half the plate with salad, etc….” She told me great don’t change a thing. Meanwhile all I’ve been eating is eggs, bacon and rib eyes. 😂
My doc said it was okay to break my addiction to sugar and to lose weight but I couldn’t stay on it forever, lol. We’ll see. 🎉

I just had to stop this video real quick and really congratulate his wife. For her to stay with him and support him through all of this is just absolutely amazing. Most women nowadays would be looking for the greener grass on the other side of the fence!
Most? Could say the same bout some men. Do better
In my experience throughout my 80 years of life, more men than women would leave an ailing spouse.
Correction MOST MEN would leave their wife, and actually statistics do prove that men leave their wife if she becomes sick for an extended period of time or even if she receives a terminal diagnosis. Men don't even wait until the terminal sickness actually takes a hold of their wife. They just leave when they find out how much support and WORK will be required of them! MOST WIVES STAY! Personally, I believe that women should follow the men's lead on their behavior in this manner. That's why one of the first questions I ask a man on a date is, "What kind of illnesses are you dealing with? and How many medications are you currently taking?" I've found that most men are careless about their health, so it's best to just assume that they are dealing with one sickness or another and I am never wrong. Then, I ghost them. I refuse to be a hospice wife, especially since ALL DATA has proven that most men never do the same for their wife. These are facts! Just look it up for yourself.
I was looking for this comment. She deserves applause bc she was taking care of four children and her husband. So glad he found the answer and is living his life fully! Cheers to both! True love. ❤️
Pretty amazing, he had comments on his channel a year ago warning his wife to hurry up and lose weight because he looked so much better than she did. This couple isn't going anywhere. They are soooo in love. Absolutely love them.❤
I am on day 120 of the carnivore diet. I have gone from 328 pounds to this mornings weigh-in at 264 pounds. 64 pounds in 120 days is beyond anything I could hope for. Most of the other benefits Kerry describes in this video is the same for me.
Good job, that’s a lot of weight.
What’s your cholesterol and triglyceride levels?
There was a dude on You Tube who was always on carnivore diet and he worked out, did cardio everyday and was in solid muscular athletic shape. His Apple Watch one day suddenly gave him a heart warning. He went in, and he had multiple blocked arteries. He now has stents and will be on a Statin for the rest of his life. Stay away from red meat and dairy.
@daveapple205 I’m so proud of you Dave !! Your future is so bright you’ll have to wear shades 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
Do you have any loose skin as a result of the weight loss? I too was 328 and am down to 310 as a result of being on low carb. I fear having loose skin but am willing to deal with it if it means a longer and happier life
When I was diagnosed with CHF and irregular heartbeat at 55, I was devastated, so sad, depressed, angry and could not forgive myself. sleep apnea was also one of the cause. I never told anyone except of course my husband as one time a spiritual friend told me that I didn't loved myself enough so that was the cause.... I searched 24/7 online and came across carnivore diet (or PKD). I new keto but could not maintain it. So after 6 months my heart function improved from 25% , stage 4, to 60% and 60% for my age is the norm, was what the cardiologist said. Unfortunately I can't find a cardiologist here in Hungary (I'm Dutch) that will help me taper of my medication, so I will figure it out myself. THANX for the content, I feel so related that I cried.
So you did keto which improved? And now just carnivore? Can o ask what you ate b4
This is one of the most inspirational videos I have seen on this subject. Everything that was mentioned I was able to relate to and recognised these symptoms in my husband, daughter and granddaughter as well as myself. I had already commenced Carnivore myself but I now have this video to inspire my family and friends who are also suffering with many of the ailments mentioned. Thank you for posting this and helping so many people.
Kerry, I stumbled upon your 64 day update video about carnivore. Thought eating meat only was crazy, but your passion motivated me to try it. Am now 117 days carnivore. Down 34 lbs. Was diagnosed type 2 diabetic. My last blood test, A1c was 5.3, down from 7.6. Blood glucose tests after meals are in a very good range now. Blood pressure has come down. Feeling good! My doctor thought I was nuts to be eating only meat, but my body says "keep it up!" Thanks so much for sharing your carnivore journey on youtube.
The things that you were eating that were not meat were smothered in what though? Prepared how also? Things are not black and white
@@kyle-zh5kwI’m fairly certain she knows her own body and experiences.
@@debbiehuebotter9800 people lie to themselves and no people don't know
@@debbiehuebotter9800 people can claim to be only eating meat meanwhile they are eating plants in the form of pills ecetera for medicine and more.. anything you put in your mouth that you swallow is essentially eating and if it's not meat its not a " only eat meat diet"
You don't need to eat animals as the vehicle to get nutrition for yourself. Animals should be left to be not killed to be eaten
This conversation is truly HEROIC! Been there too! Better now.
Carnivore after 5 heart bypass surgery. My metabolic numbers are great. Can’t believe how brainwashed I have been! Still struggling with that. Namaste ❤️
I love Kerry! Such a genuine heartfelt man. He and I started carnivore the exact same day. I did not have a lot of the medical problems he had, but I’ve had success. I’ve lost 40 pounds. No more IBS. I have improved aches and pains. Brain fog and fatigue are still intermittent. I’m sleeping better.
ErinCRN my carnitwin! Thanks for your nice words!
Grounding while you sleep, and no blue light an hour before bed will give you great sleep.
@@-whackd I’ve done it all. What I think was happening was dawn phenomenon. My blood sugar was dipping too low when asleep and my cortisol was excreting too early to increase my blood sugar. I would have my last meal at 4/5pm and would wake up at 2/3am. I’m now eating a bit later, at 6:30-7 and I’m sleeping through the night. I do my fasting from 7p-11a. This schedule has fixed my sleep issues 100%.
Congratulations to you all! I was having a hard time getting enough deep sleep and just this week I realized that if I have a spoonful of butter just before going to sleep , I end up sleeping better and getting enough deep sleep. I’ve been feeling so much better the next day!
EMF exposure. Grounding as much as you can (while sleeping to) Limit your plastic exposure, wear cotton and wool clothing instead of polyester and your bed cloths also be cotton or wool, wash your cloths and bed cloths in white vinegar, get as much sunlight as you can, drink re mineralized reverse osmosis or distilled water in a glass or stainless steel container, do resistance exercise (while grounded), and lastly if you're doing carnivore, eat grass fed AND finished meat with PLENTY of animal fats (Try to consume only red meat if you can) and don't calorie restrict.. Avoid straight lines like in the city, buildings, warehouses and be in nature as much as possible, Sleep as much as you can WITHOUT an alarm cloth.
Do all these and I promise your brain fog and fatigue will disappear.
Depression can be horrible. Went through same for almost a decade, still have some. Gods word/Bible study kept me alive. Can’t imagine how he supported his family. I pushed and kept working to support my family. Decided couldn’t end my life cuz terrible testimony to your children. I suffer from weight & fatty liver. Thinking of trying carnivore. Have intermittent fasted for 3.5 months and dropped 10 pounds but still sugar cravings.
Praying for you sis
You sharing your story so completely, will save more than a few lives. I wish my husbands life could have been saved, too. He had all of it-depression, snoring, insomnia, as well as headaches and eventually two bleeding ulcers, type 2 diabetes, valley fever, and then a massive heart attack. He also had anxiety and was in sales. I feel so sad to know we didn’t know what to do and no one helped him. Keep getting it out there! God bless you and I am so happy you are a success story! ❤️🙏🏻
Thank you so much for doing this interview!! I tried carnivore for 3 months and it changed everything for me! I fell off the wagon and all the mental and physical pain came back. This has inspired me to do it again. I have years of disease and chronic pain to erase. Love your journey and your passion. Thanks again.
I find this so interesting... for nearly every carnivore success story (and there are a TON of incredible testimonies), there seems to be an equal number of people who say they have fallen off the wagon. Any idea why this is the case? When the results are so good, why would people ever go back? I guess it just goes to show what an incredible amount of power foods can hold over us!
Warren, because their brain betrays them. They think that they are fine now so they should be able to eat anything again. Source, myself
@warrenthiessen4682 Because it does get a bit boring. I did it for a year, and then slid back into my old patterns. My main problem is my knees. I avoid junk food and processed food, but I do love a variety of food, and I love experimenting with cooking. But now my arthritic knees are very painful, so I am beginning carnivore again. Like Kerry, I can't moderate. I've never had health issues or been overweight, it's just my knees. I do think the boredom and lack of variety is a major reason why people 'fall off the wagon'.
@annlewis3674 Mmhmm there are ways to mitigate that but like I always say, "What works for Jack won't work for John." You have to figure out for yourself what will work for YOU. Lots of help out there for this but in the end, only your body will really have the answer.
@@warrenthiessen4682 I’m sure it has to do with finances too?🙏🏻🇺🇸💯🤙🏻
OMG I love this video. I'm just starting the carnivore diet today. My body is completely fubar'd with arthritis. I've had small flare ups over the year and even went blind/severe uveitis a couple years ago. I've had hundreds of tests at the VA and they never really pinpointed/diagnosed the problem. Recently I had to go to urgent care (Aug 9 and Aug 21), the pain in my shoulders, hip and lower back is horrendous. I was given prednisone the first visit then celecoxib the second visit. The Dr said I had Ankylosing Spondylitis. Not good!! Hope this diet works. I can't sleep on my right side. So painful. I also saw Mckailah Peterson's video today. Inspiring!!
I was also drawn into the Carnivore community via YT's algorithm that offered me a Dante Ferrigno/Ferrigno Freedom video.
Kerry is a very special man. I've watched so many of Kerry's videos and had already heard most of these stories but to put it all together in one conversation is so powerful. I appreciate that he was willing to not 'sugar coat' any of the details of his experience. I think there are far more people who 'white knuckle' through life like Kerry, myself included, than any of us can even begin to conceive. I wish I had access to more resources to help him in his mission to produce this important documentary about the Carnivore Diet. His story and the stories of so many that will be featured in the film will cast a lifeline to millions of people who just need a little hope. Great interview!
Thank you for your nice words!
I’ve been watching Kerry’s videos for a few months now and this is by far the best interview/video about him as he doesn’t really give a full blown overview on his own videos (I suspect because there is sooo much!) It explains more about his story & carnivore journey. I had no idea his body was in such a mess. It just goes to show even if your body/brain is in a total hopeless mess, carnivore can and will save you! Thanks for this interview Rina, I’m sure his subscribers will increase substantially after this! Really interesting video. ❤
I could have written this myself . I've been following Kerry since his first 30-day video. This is by far the most in-depth inspirational interview . It should be added to the movie. ❤
Thank you, Rina is a great interviewer!
@@Homesteadhow you are a great interviewee Kerry! 😁🌷❤️
Your story about your struggle( both of you I know )
And your willingness to be vulnerable
Is very admirable and also hard to know that you went through that with your two little girls
You’re a warrior
You did it brother
And you will be the optimal father for the rest of your long life
i have been struggling with depression for some years now , i have been suicidal sad mad everything , i have felt very lost and i have known of the carnivore diet for some time , but did not now about what good it could do , and Dr Berry popped up on my youtube yesterday but i have tried keto but couldnt be consistent , but yesterday i sort of got an ephiny, and some how it just clicked i have to go carnivore , and i got very emtional over it i dont know why , but yeah i have been struggling with weight most of my adult life too, and anxiety , but i dont know yesterday it just clicked , cause i have been like begging for an answer , i even started praying but yeah yesterday i just felt like this is what i have to do, i am only one day in now but i feel like this is the lifestyle that is going to help me, i am thankful for people like you on youtube because thats really what made me start.

Congratulations for giving up smoking and getting back to the Carnivore diet!!!
I wish you lots of strength and success 🍀💐
One of the best interviews on the Carnivore diet. Truly amazing! Carnivore certainly fixed a lot of my health issues so I'm a big fan. Thanks so much Reena!
Thanks so much for this interview. I’m about to start carnivore. I have been on Keto on and off, loose some put some back on. It’s so annoying. I’m on anti depressants, high blood pressure, thyroid and cholesterol medication since start of perimenopause for the last 10 years. Put on 25 kg in 6 months 10 years ago and cannot get it off. You said “losing weight is easy.” I can say that losing weight was easy before perimenopause. I’m 55yo. I have not been able to budge this weight at all. This has just confirmed that I have to give this lifestyle a go. Thanks again. I’ll check back in after 30 days to let you know how it’s gone. 😊
Hi. I saw a specialist saying having 300 for cholesterol is not high. Thats actually healthy. So if you have it lower it actually is a bit of problem. I hope this helps în some weird way. I dont know your cholesterol but maybe it still can be helpful
Fantastic testimony! Thank you so much. I’m 73 yr old and on Day 18. I lost 3.5 lbs in first week and a half and this last 8 days stayed the same. You Cary, have encouraged me to just keep doing it. I’m with you with the life long “stuff” from thyroid goiter at 27 at 105 lbs to appendicitis with my third pregnancy at 34 to gall bladder surgery (in Guatemala!!) at age 58. All the while unable to lose a lb no matter how little I ate. IBS for last 12 years completely caused huge debilitating lifestyle. I decided to try again and this time for real! Let’s do this!❤
congrats
keep going
you will feel like a young 20 year old in no time, i do
72 here.. I kept slipping up though..I'm going to have to start over😢
Day 42 here 6 weeks in just wanted to say keep going and focus on your non scale victories the scales will move eventually. The scales went up for me (not by too much) before they started going down but i went from zero energy to running up stairs and going to the gym and enjoying it rather than it feeling like a chore. Had poor mental health and anxiety now feeling so much better. Clothes are looser maybe try measurements they're more accurate than the scales anyway. Ive lost about 7 kilos in the 6 weeks so far
Kerry I totally get you now and your mission. This is one of the most powerful testimonials, hard and painful life stories I have heard. All this needs to be talked about more. Thank you for sharing your life's journey with us. Wow. You are such a testament to the Proper Human Diet, and the purest form of Carnivore. You guys knocked it out of the park on this most excellent interview. Thank you.
Thank you for your kind words. When people tell me Gee you are so passionate...this back story is why.
@@Homesteadhow What about if you ate carnivore plus non-starchy vegetables? Would that be just as successful for you as carnivore? I didn't hear you discuss trying that option.
I’ve suffered from the type of deep depression that the guest describes - it’s like being in a dark pit that you can’t get out of. The late author William Styron describes his experience with it in his book Darkness Visible. I was suicidal. Anti depressants eventually pulled me out of it, but yes, the SSRI’s in particular can make you feel flat and emotionless. I actually talked myself into the depression through negative thinking but it really developed significantly during my pregnancy so it may have been hormonal too.
I admire the guest so much for sharing his story.
I had 2 strokes and a quintuple heart bypass before I found out that sugar and carbs were killing me (thanks to UA-cam). I wasn't obese, but I still lost 44 pounds around the waist. Blood pressure improved and is now normal, taking just two tablets (could be over 200/140 on three or more tablets). Reflux and gout went away. My skin is now so soft. I thought I was going to die in less than 5 year, but not any more.
Was your blood pressure really 200 over 140?
@stefanosprokopis6974 Systolic was over 240 when I had my first stroke. They were preceded by several TIAs. I was very unwell in lots of ways. I now know I was pre-diabetic for many decades, probably started in my twenties. Metabolic disorder is killing us slowly but surely. Sugar, carbs, seed oil, and all processed foods are very bad for us, and most people don't know it.
What kind of carbs?? Do you do fiber or greens?
Thrilled to hear about Maggie. Living in Edmonton, I am so proud of her, and so ashamed that she has been forced to sell off portions of her land, and some of her cattle because of external pressures. She deserves to be celebrated!
What? please tell what happened?
@@yfa6244 go watch Dr Chaffee at her ranch interviewing her….crazy. She’s fantastic though for sure.
Following as an ex Albertan.
You're the first person i've seen with the same last name as me. I had to comment that. lol
When you lack knowledge you parish. I did my research and it made sense. The pyramid is wrong. Red meat does not cause heart disease. Grain’s, oils, corn, soy, high fructose syrup, sunflower oil,safflower oil, canola oils, vegetable oil’s, all dyes in food are bad.
So confusing. Vegans, Mediterranean, Keto, Carnivore, Whole Foods - all claim to be the one and have passionate testimonials on UA-cam. I used to do low carb , real food, haven't eaten stuff with chemicals for years, and the low carb cleared my head and dropped any extra poundage within days. But now, when i try to cut carbs to that degree, even when i give it plenty of time to calm the cravings, my brain goes into revolt and i feel terrible to the point of feeling like im going to have a stroke or something. I no longer know what to do. I don't eat junk food.
I know I feel the same. But I think unless you have a big reason to do such an elimination diet. You can just eat a balanced diet with some intermittent fasting?
Add to the list the bio energetic ray peats view of eating lol.
This is a phenomenal interview. I am carnivore about a year and have also 100% licked decades long (mostly unmedicated) severe severe depression. It's GONE. I also cured insomnia, also decades, (unfortunately I did take pills for this, shudder to think what I did to my brain.) I have had periods of cheating and never know whether to re-start the days counting from when I am 100% or count from the beginning even though I fell off the wagon (with sugar, pickles, sometimes potatoes.) Determined not to cheat at all. I have no more depression, no more anxiety, brain fog WAAAY better, I am happy, and I sleep deep and well which was unheard of for me. Thank you both for a truly epic carnivore/fativore talk. Can't wait for the documentary!
The medditeranian diet is established as the healthiest out there by the largest studies ever conducted in modern times, why would you choose any other lol
studies also said that the covid vaccine should be given to society and see what happened@@Danuxsy
This was so timely for me! I have afib, am overweight and on 3 medications. Today is day 1 on carnivore. Thank you Kerry for sharing this, congratulations of your new life. With your inspiration, I'll find mine.
Way to go! I started to get really sick back in 2018. By 2020 I was about to lose my left middle finger due to chronic inflammation but I clearly remember a doctor asking me to quit eating meat in 2018 which I did and hell was loose open. 5 years eating mostly veggies and some chicken and fish. After doing biological drugs for a year, my middle finger recovered but I found a way out of those meds. For a year now my left index finger has been bothering me and my right wrist. My BP was high 145/110 till two weeks ago. After watching the documentary’The perfect human diet’ on UA-cam on September 26 this year, I decided to take the plunge. Today 13 days in, these are my results: I have lost 5 kg. My wrist hurts no more and the strength I’d lost is coming back. My BP is at 130/90 and at one point today it was 125/85. I stopped craving for carbs. I can breathe without difficulty and play with my kids so easily. My wife feels that in bed I’m like I was 14 years ago. I’m 41 and 1.78 meters tall. Before all this carnivore diet/life style, my weight was out of control 83-85 kg. Now, it’s 77,5 kg.
21 gun salute to u. Discipline commitment and dedication. You will surely sail through and testify to the benefits of this diet. Praying for u.
Good luck with it. Keep watching this community's channels for inspiration. You'll find such positive, supportive people. 🌷
I suggest you follow Dr Ken Berry because he has a lot of information on carnivore, and all the success tips.
@Katarine
So, how is it going?
I think we MUST do our own research (21:41).
Fifteen years ago I had myriad, seemingly untelated symptoms. I saw a specialists for each, but left each doctor’s visit with no answers and a huge dose of shaming skepticism as though it were all in my head.
I did my own research and diagnosed cancer. Eventually the medical community caught up with me when I ended up in the Emergency Room. Be your own doctor because in the medical community, like any other profession, there is a majority of mediocrity.
He is so vocal on his experience that it's difficult to believe that he had so much anxiety, you go Kerry! great interview thanks for sharing
Yes. He's really pumped up from doing carnivore. He described how he used to be but since we didn't experience the issues that he went through it might be difficult for us to understand his enthusiasm.
My anxiety before was a daily often hourly part of my life. It's completely gone now. I'm talking to Dr Berry, hosting a 24 hour live stream, officiating a wedding ...any of those things would have paralyzed me before. Thx❤
I have a son like the man in Alaska. I have sent him this video. He has horrendous skin issues and the doctors aren’t helping. I am trying to get jim on carnivore but he keeps cheating and I don’t know how else to help him . Im a health coach, not practicing but i am certified. I can’t seem to help him and he seems hopeless so thank you for this. Maybe he will watch and maybe it will make a difference in his life and health. Thank you
You planted the seed. At least he knows what to do now.
Though , you can't save some people. It's frustrating but sometimes you just have to move on from them and help others who want the help
Happy to hear how he overcame his health issues. My journey has been challenging, many times I wanted to end things. Keto helped but not enough. Carnivore sounds so promising. Looking for hope and an answer. Already in my 60s but not too late to have a life! Going to give it a shot! Thanks!
Doctors are absolutely inspired to prescribe medications by the pharmaceutical companies. I know cuz I have a friend who is a doctor. And their highly misinformed or most of them were educated long ago and don't keep up on current facts.
I have not heard one negative story about the carnivore diet not one you would think you would see that on UA-cam I can't find anything negative. I'm starting it because I'm going through a lot of what Kerry's gone through. I have severe arthritis, hypothyroidism, insomnia, depression and anxiety you name it. Not to mention I need to lose about 30 lbs. You're both so inspiring, thank you.
By the way Rina I love the fact that you listen and don't interrupt who you're interviewing you're a great interviewer.
My negatives have been having to buy smaller clothes. I can’t keep my pants up!
@@04nhouck yeah good point I didn't put that in my comment I just added it I could use to lose about 30 lb as well
Great conversation! 20 months on keto/carni 'blend'. Age 66, feeling better than last 20 years. Anxiety and PTSD greatly reduced, almost gone. Inflammation/joint pain gone. Blood pressure and cholesterol normal. Glucose went from 120 to low 80's. A1C about 5.0. I sleep a solid and sound 7 - 8 hours, from unable to sleep or very stressful sleep.
Ugh, knowing you, your "PTSD" is from someone shouting at you to keep your dogs on a leash or something.
@twinbrookacres can you explain how you keto/carnivore blend? I'm considering doing that since meat is so expensive
Kerry, I am sitting here listening to you with tears in my eyes, Thank you for sharing your story... It's my story! I feel the hope. Thank you so very much.
I completely love Kerry! He is so compassionate!💞And real! His family is awesome! This man is changing lives!Great to hear his whole story!
Aww thanks!❤
Dante and Kerry are saving my life! I stumbled upon both 3 months ago, I am down 46 pounds...started a new job where I have to remember a script (I am on epilepsy meds so memory was TERRIBLE) ankle pain has been gone for 2 months! I love you guys!!
Thanks for your nice words and Im so happy you took control back and are doing better!
*Incredibly motivational testimony. This man found his mission. Joyful. Exciting. inspiring. Thank you!*
I’ve started carnivore, doing very well with it, and I really believe it’s the way forward. The only thing keeping me from talking much about it to others is this community’s obsession with incendiary, click baity and needlessly misleading screen shots and video titles. Surely this great info can be dispensed without these tactics.
Well said.
Carnivore now for 6 years!! Lost 102 lbs...hbp...A fib...diabetes!! Feel half my age at 62!!🤠🙏🥓🥩🥚
I hope you are spreading the word of your success. I am a cardiac rehab nurse and feel so conflicted when our patients are taught to eat low fat, no red meat, calorie restriction. They get half hearted results if they try at all. I can't tell them different or I'll lose my job. We need more people like you in the patient trenches willing to share your success stories and show this is the way to health!
Awsome!
Wow a cardiac nurse and she will lose her job if she doesn’t promote the main party line.
There’s no money in healthy patients
Sorry did you have high blood pressure ? What foods you have b4? What now what kind of meats ?
I am deep diving this weekend on carnivore. My accupuncturist told me on friday. Never heard of it. But my life is horrendous. Im so weak i worry about being able to cook and shop. I have no life. But this video has so many problems the same as mine in different ways. I can see the glow on both your faces. Thank you for your messages that have resonated with me so much. I've also tried multitude of diets over the years with little results. I'm scared that nothing will happen like in the past. But like you said nothing ventured nothing gained. Bless both of you for reaching out with your stories. Much appreciated. ❤
So happy for you brother! I have Crohn's been doing carnivore for 7 months and just no luck yet. I wasn't over weight but lost 10 pounds. I have almost given up a few times but I want to feel better so much more then eating. You have a good wife mine walked away after I got Crohn's, even after 25 years together. Your story keeps me going so thank you!! God bless
Don’t give up! I have seen comments of people being helped!!!
@@RedRoyce, I’m so sorry your wife left. 💔 I pray God will bring you someone who will be a true team player and who will stick with you through life’s storms. 🙏🏻
Also, please definitively hang in there!! I’ve had health issues since my teens. I’ve been doing carnivore for about 2 months and starting to see some small changes but not with the symptoms I was most hoping for. Like you, I’m just going to hang in there! I’ve heard it can take up to a year for some people.
In the meantime, I am loving how easy it is to prepare my food now, and I enjoy it as well. I also make carnivore treats (I eat dairy) so I don’t feel deprived. I can totally see myself sustaining this for a lifetime. Whether I feel better or not, I love at least knowing I’ll be able to maintain muscle and mobility when I get older! There are so many benefits that make it worthwhile.
I hope you soon start feeling better!! 🙏🏻
keep going
do lion and the weight will fall off and the chron's can improve
I’m so sorry that happened to you. I can’t understand why you’d leave someone b/c they have Crohn’s. I have UC (sister to Crohn’s), and I had a rough run of it. I even fasted completely with only water for 35d and it never calmed. I’ve been on Remicade for 16y now and no regrets. It’s a real pain with ins and all, but no regrets. Now I’m hoping carnivore will help my lose weight. I hope you can find remission. ❤️
I know a lady who healed her Crohn's with the bean protocol. Carnivore doesn't help everyone, I wish people wouldn't be so black and white about it. Look up Karen Hurd's bean protocol.
I think this discussion with Kerry is the most inspirational testimony about carnivore I have ever heard and as a result I will be taking this up as a New Years resolution. Never done a New Years Resolution before. It is most effective to go cold turkey on carbohydrates for me and this is an excellent way to do that. I am not in bad shape but the insulin gut is beginning to show and the BMI has risen to 27, although I am a cyclist with muscular legs and upper body. Thanks to you both.
and? how is it ? it's been a month since new years! :D just curious, hope all is well
I’m so happy that you found this carnivore diet. Many of your symptoms like your feet and back pain sound like oxalates issues. Be wary that those symptoms can come back around as your body continues to heal. I’m just starting to try a low oxalate diet, so mostly carnivore, but not completely. I don’t want to go through any extreme oxalate purging issues.
Yes and OMG YES! 76 yrs old (kinda lazy) carnivore-🙄 but how many women my age have recently climbed a tall Mayan Pyramid ?! On cruise to Belize - many much younger than Me on the excursion to Mayan ruins - Could Not or wouldn’t even TRY to climb the stairs up! I also deer hunt & eat Loads of Venison! Keep telling these Truths! Great story Kerry ! Will be watching you both !
In my early 40's, I was diagnosed with Crohns. Took medications for it. In my mid 50's, blood pressure was 230/165. All my life my knees hurt me. When Curling I would have to pop pills to reduce the pain. Since Changing to keto and carnivore, All above DISAPPEARED. Gone like it was magic!
Thank you 🙏🏾 for your post!!!! My blood pressure has been similar!!! I’m trying to get it back down to normal. How long did it take you to get your blood pressure down to normal?
🌟 Most importantly is to highlight what type of animal products you should buy bc it is completely irresponsible to not...

For 13 years I had missed heartbeats. I was tested in the best heart hospital in Europe, as well as years of screening and monitoring my condition. Within two weeks on carnivore diet - missed beat gone! That was 320 days ago, and I haven't stopped eating carnivore.
Yes! Good job and great progress! You are a next level human!
Was it arrhythmia? Awesome feedback
yes indeed it was and a blesing that my heart has repaired itself by eating carnivore@@MrsPaulaTorres
@SeanTWright
What type of meats do you eat and how do you cook your meats?
Click-baity, I thought he got heart-failure from meat.
I am 71 and have suffered from chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, anxiety, peripheral neuropathy, Raynauds disease, chronic sinusitis, for over 25 years. I also developed osteoarthritis of the lower back and two hips, atrial fibrillation, ectopic heart beats, and right ventricular heart block for ten years. I have been mostly a vegetarian over this time. I started yesterday on meat but was unable to tolerate it, so have decided to go paleo first and then slide into carnivore.
Update?
Thanks for sharing this, I'm 61 and 315 lbs and starting carnivore ,this I feel is my last shot at losing this weight so again thank you
I feel so bad for people with depression. It's an enemy like fighting a ghost. Brain chemistry is often involved, but finding a solution is like finding a needle in a haystack! And most doctors will treat you with just drugs. That you've found a nutritional solution is wonderful! I've had success on Keto, but slip into eating junk too often. I'm so fired up by this video that I've got to try the carnivore diet. Carrie's story is wonderful!
Wow. This really is amazing. Thank you so much for sharing this information! 👏👏👏
That you Kerry, you are the reason I have gone full carnivore, but this time the proper way. Last time I made stews for the family and tried to pick the meat out. That was a fail, because of your story I have done the meat, salt, water, and coffee nothing else. I feel amazing no weight loss yet. It is worth it for no other reason than my pains are almost zero.
Good job taking control of your life
I just started carnivore today and now after seeing how excited and healthy and happy Kerry is... I'm even more excited about going on this journey. This is seriously inspiring and I don't say that often. 😊
I just started yesterday. We got this!
@@Fortean23 It would be wise to bring back some vegetables though to get your nutrients (vitamin A,C, Potassium), fiber, folate. I went plant based, quit sugar and alcohol a few years ago and it made a huge change in my well being, but I reintroduced meats and cheese and came to this realization....quitting sugar and alcohol was the "cure". Excess sugar and alcohol were the enemies, not the fruits and vegetables.
@@Fortean23 totally normal to have some symptoms in the beginning as the body needs to adjust as well as heal from years of eating the wrong foods, don't start eating vegetables and give your body time to adjust and get used to more fat. Enjoy the health gains going forward.
Can't imagine what this beautiful gentlemsn went thru, also his family. Thank you for sharing. God bless❤
I had the exact same issues @ 13 as his daughter.
Now at 40, I'm almost healed now of hidradenitis suppurtiva (HS) because of carnivore and Jesus' guiding me to it!! ❤❤❤
Incredible story! ❤ So many times got chills from listening. So happy for Kerry and his family. Keep spreading the message 🙏 I am over 3 years on Carnivore 🥩 myself and feel amazing 😊
What an inspirtational video. I started carnivore today and am looking forward to feeling better.
The part toward the end about Bill made me cry. I’m so happy for you, Bill! I am looking forward to seeing your story continue!
Kerry, what you experienced is me thru and thru (except that I’m an old woman). Your experience ring true in so many ways. I started carnivore 9 days ago and already noticing changes. Thank you for sharing your story
You can do this!: I'm sorry what you went through but I'm so happy you are taking control back! You got this!
Love your ‘handle’ (stinkerbell)😂🤣.
Like you, I am an older woman, and have gone from keto to carnivore, but haven’t always stayed on track. I am motivated to take it seriously after the holidays, from hearing so many great people’s inspiring stories. Plus, I am slowing down and got slammed by a virus, which I’m usually able to fight off. Still working full-time and becoming depressed that it’s become difficult to get through the week. I needed the reminder that my diet needs to be back on track. Blessings to you on your Carnivore journey👍.
Im glad i found this video. I too have a irregular heart beat that i have delt with all my life and high blood pressure. I started carnivore in august, im down 50 pounds, my snoring has also stopped, but my heart doesnt feel like it used to and feels "normal" which is something i never thought i would experience. My blood pressure also has improved, i dont feel like my head is going to explode when i bend over anymore. I havent had any tests done yet but my body just feels a million times better. And my energy is through the roof! I feel like im 20 years old again!
Chicken? What kinds of meat??? What you eat before?
I have pots and how he describes standing up dizzy every time is how I feel all day. Today is day one on carnivore I’m doing a 30 day start and I’m hopeful for the first time
I started yesterday. We got this!
How are you doing?
Doing great. I started because of the rheumatoid arthritis and it only took four days for 90% of the pain to go away and after 28 days I'm still doing great. Also my blood pressure went down from 150/93 to 127/83. I also had a couple of headaches, but I believe that was some kind of withdrawals from the cards and trash I was eating.@@spookie3000
report please
How are you? I thought with pits salt and water was important?
I’ve had depression like that and it’s devastating. There’s a period of six months I didn’t even wash my hair and it got so tangled I had to cut all my hair. I thank God every day im better
I’ve been carnivore 19 weeks tomorrow, but I’ve slipped a lot. After hearing all the things he’s reversed, I am more resolved to keep on this way of eating
Keep in mind, you’re not truly on the carnivore diet, until you stop slipping. Slipups, make you have to repeat the process and gain traction again. You have to remain on ketosis for a long extended period to truly see the results.
Yikes, then I’m not really on day 100.
@denisea.9033 you and me both😮....I'm so weak though. If I lived alone I'm sure I'd be stronger.
@@LetsGetitBoah Hyper carnivore is 70% +, this nonsense notion that you need to be 100% carnivore is B.S., it's ignorance and people need to stop perpetuating this myth. Eat whatever plants you can tolerate, or not, there's no "rule" in carnivore that you canonot eat plants and only zealots make the claim you need to be 100%. You can start at 100% as it is an elimination diet, sure. Anyone doing carnivore should know that. But it's o.k. to reintroduce plants and see what you can tolerate, if any. Some cannot and need to be 100%. but many don't.
@@meatavoreNana oh that’s very challenging! I am the only one in my family eating this way. I felt much weaker at first, now I still get them pizza every Friday and for the past month I haven’t had any myself. I have a hard time getting in enough protein in meat though, so I still drink protein shakes and have an occasional protein bar. I’m sure we’ll both get stronger as we continue on this journey 🙏🏼. I guess I can say I’ve been TRYING carnivorish for the past 100 days 😅.
