I have been told since February 2001 by two gastroenterologists who treat my Crohn’s disease that I should not eat red meat, so I’ve been vegetarian or 90% vegetarian since then. With my health breaking down more and more, I switched to keto and now ketovore and added red meat for nearly a year. I’ve not felt this good in 20 years.
@@KT-dq5cp Sure but at the same time there have been many long term carnivores who regularly do blood work and are doing well. At what point is there enough evidence? Nutrition science is one of the softest sciences in the world, to get large scale, accurate, long term RCT’s is no small feat. Take for example cholesterol. We now have 5 meta analyses showing that cholesterol does not cause heart disease and that there is no correlation. Yet there are plenty of studies that say the opposite, I think that you will agree that Cholesterol is probably the most studied aspect of nutrition science and yet there is no consensus, in fact there are two diametrically opposed sides to the coin, both with “significant evidence” to support their arguments when realistically the weighting of the statistics in general shows nothing “causative” on either side. If the most studied thing in all of nutrition science for the last 50 years doesn’t have enough evidence to influence someone’s diet then we’re nowhere near having causative evidence on almost anything in regards to nutrition. Get your bloods done regularly, try and go by what is considered healthy levels of nutrients (not just the RDI’s), and constantly assess how you feel, that’s all you can do.
My friend had Crohn’s. His wife pushed veggies veggies veggies on him. He developed kidney stones and then a huge cancerous mass in his abdomen. Clearly the vegetables didn’t do him any good. He is now in an urn on the mantelpiece. 😢
I am a 44 year old from Australia, I was diagnosed with epilepsy at age 14 and have had weight issues my entire adult life. I have now been on a animal based diet for 2-3 weeks, have lost inches off my waist and feel the best I have in my entire adult life
@celialewis7447 no ways, that's almost middle age haha, not young at all. you could have almost full adult children at that age, it may not be old, but not young at all haha
Most beautiful couple! Hope she is your " "keeper," makings for good looking children. I loved Neisha Berry's using a stick of butter to let Bonnie Blue teeth on it!
I appreciate that Elle said she knows not everyone has had as easy an experience as her when it comes to the social aspect of carnivore. My friends definitely don't agree with it and actively shove non-meat foods in my face constantly. Food is so much more confrontational than people may think.
I'm really sorry to hear that. The more I laugh things like that off and not let it bother me, the less other people seem interested in bringing it up as well. It's like people trying to get a rise out of you, if they think it doesn't bother you, they lose interest.
I'm a 35 yr old female and I've lost 56lbs since January 6 this year doing the carnivore woe! Inflammation gone plus many other problems gone!! I'm at 133 lbs now from 189!
@@anthonychaffeemd I just got some results back from blood test. It's showing that my BUN/creatinine ratio is high- 25 and my creatinine levels are low- .56. I also deal with very bad dizzy spells and almost blacking out. My doc did a test on me to check my bp and pulse. He said I have orthostatic hypotension (?). Any ideas what could be going on?
Hey Anthony gee she's a pretty girl. And I'd like to thank you for all your tips and info. In your podcasts I'm a 62year old extremely obese woman at 158.8 kilo. Had surgery and put most of it back on. Heading for a wheel chair. On a walker. As my knees are bad and worn out. I started the diet on 1st august 2024 and I've lost 9.4 kilos on your carnivore lifestyle. Your my favourite coach as your an inspiration to me sticking to it. Lost all this weight in 24 days. Being strict. No sugar no carbs just fatty meat. Cutting coffee out as my knees are painful. Blood pressure down seriasis gone. Skin looks great feel energetic. Never felt better I have a cat too. I love meat. It's working thankyou Tania
Keep it up Tania! I am in a similar situation losing the weight while transitioning into carnivore. Coffee is next to cut off. Happy healing thoughts to you and those knees!
I think it would be nice to hear Elle talk more about overcoming her carb addiction. I think a lot of us struggle with that. Which is the biggest reason why it's so hard to stick to carnivore. Thank you for sharing your story Elle ❤
Kelly Hogan said something like “if you are hungry, eat a bowl of meat. If that doesn’t sound good, you aren’t hungry!” And that has stuck with me!! I do drink coffee and will have tea (no sugar) if I am really craving. I will be a year in July.
Thank-you! I am 5’7” and I was in ICU the last week of December 2021 with Covid and fighting for my life at 300lbs. I was classified as morbidly obese and my lungs were riddled with Covid, and on BP meds for 10 years! Laying in ICU I committed that if I survived I would take control of my health! I went Keto-vore and lost 45 lbs in 3’ish months. Came off BP meds! Then I went carnivore and I am now down 90 lbs., and at nearly 54 yrs old I feel like 35! For the last 9 months started back my weight lifting and walk 5 days a week! Your channel, while I don’t agree with everything you layout on evolution, the science behind carnivore really makes sense to me and has proven to be true with my body! My goal weight is 195-200 as I have always carried more muscle as an avid weightlifter from 16 yrs old to 22 yrs old,then got married and quit lifting and the. Started again at at 43 years old for 1 year and hurt my hip. Hobbled around for 7 years then got a full hip replacement 3 years ago. My biggest regret is not doing this so many years ago!! Go fast, go straight! Be SAFE!
@@anthonychaffeemd hello, is there a chance that I could ask you a question and you'd give me your point of view - not a recommendation or requirement, because obviously you're not my doctor... but I have a few questions needing answering, but I haven't got a doc who I could ask them... would it be possible to ask you and get a reply? maybe an email? or WhatsApp, fb or other way? thank you in advance 🙏👍
I started carnivore after watching you about 6 weeks ago. I am very obese but I can feel my clothes are looser already and I am moving around easier (I have been a yoyo dieter for 40 odd years... lose 10 kilo put on 20, lose 20 put on 30 etc.) It made me realise how full on the carb addiction is. For years I thought I had a hopeless food addiction... it was all carbs. I had a small skin growth on my nose which has completely gone now since it appeared 12 years ago. It was a tiny thing but I keep touching the spot and find it amazing that in a mere 6 weeks of carnivore, its gone. Now my husband is interested and has been gradually replacing meals with all meat. He is in no way obese, but understands how humans have been lied to about what is healthy and what isn't and as we are in our 50's he's a bit keen to improve his health. Surprisingly I have not had any push back from anyone about this way of eating. People are very interested in a positive way, which surprised me. My dad is 75 and I keep trying to get him on carnivore because he loves meat and I know he would do well on it. Its worth a try hahaha.
Same weight history as you, 61 years old, started Carnivore 7 weeks ago, read your comment and just checked my little skin growth on my forehead, gone! I've heard skin tags disappear as well, but have yet to see any improvement. Feel way better on Carnivore, my stomach is just quiet and calm. No cravings, food is not on my mind 24/7. Losing inches and weight, and just got over my first plateau, I decided to bring Diet Coke back into my diet. The sweeteners didn't trigger any cravings, but I immediately stopped losing weight. Stopped the DC and BINGO, back to losing.
I really appreciate her perspective about “it’s not the last sweet thing I can eat. I can always go back if I want to”. It really helped me see that I’m not powerless against the sugar addiction. I have a choice. It also helped to hear that it took 6mths to really get beyond the cravings. That way if I’m 3 mths in I won’t feel guilty for just having a craving. Hearing her say that it’s just part of the process was really helpful. Thank you!
@@Elle_Marie_ I thought those points were very informative also. I really hate I didn't take more time to speak with the two of you when we met in February. I'm glad you did this chat/interview. I still use dairy also, especially cheese. I've never had a problem with it, but think I will cut back some.
@@anthonychaffeemd anything processed that says KETO on it in the store should be avoided. Whole foods are always best. I agree, no fruit on Keto, not necessarily NO carb but very low is best, at least under 50 g, but under 20 g/day is best. Sometimes the veggies have a few carbs. I went to the Carnivore Way of Eating about 2 years ago and have healed from Metabolic syndrome and associated ills.
I love your girlfriend!! Thanks so much for having her on! As a single woman in my 30s I love hearing her perspective and experience, and hope I can find a carnivore guy bc y’all are so cute together! ❤❤
One whole month on carnivore. It may not be much for some but I've been having the best sleep of my adult life. No inflammation and no brain fog. Dr. Chaffee, I've never seen you so happy during an interview on your channel as with this one. This is the most healthy, respectable, and intellectual couple I've seen in a long time! Thank you for the video!
Elle is the envy of all the ladies who swoon over Doc! Good luck to you guys, it appears that you communicate well together, that’s really important to a long lasting relationship! Cheers 🥂
No pressure, Dr Chaffee but wow, I can picture in my mind the wedding photos…the two of you would be blinding us all with the gorgeous overload! In all seriousness, thank you to Elle for sharing her journey and thank you again for doing what you are doing for real nutrition education. Great interview.
I am 66 years old and I started carnivore in July last year. It was the easiest thing I have ever done for my health. I have been on every diet that has come down the pipe most of my life. I’ve never had such an easy time changing my way of eating before or gotten such quick results in my health. My boyfriend at the time (now my husband) saw my results and began carnivore in August. He is about to turn 76 and has COPD. Just walking out to the street and back his O2 levels would drop into the 80’s and even high 70’s sometime. He had to carry a portable oxygen unit around everywhere he went. He has lost 60 pounds since then and hasn’t used any oxygen (portable unit or nighttime unit) since September. I know they say COPD can only be managed or get worse and can’t improve, but my husband has certainly improved. His Pulmonologist (A Keto-Vore) is thrilled with his improvement. Not only does he feel so much better, but he even looks younger. So many health issues have improved for him. He’s been climbing ladders to install blinds, hang curtains, install security systems and other things that I try and talk him out of. LOL We have a wonderful relationship and I have to say (without getting too personal), but we have powerful libidos that rival that of our youth. That was so surprising and unexpected to me. I didn’t see that coming. It’s just one of soooooooo many healthy improvements for us. I know for a fact that my body was extremely “Meat Deficient” before carnivore. Neither of us can believe the changes it has made in our lives. Thank you Dr. Chaffee. I love your channel.
Hi doc, I’m a 54 year old male. Been on carnivore for 2 years. I feel great. Only fatty red meat and butter For me. I lift weights and hike, Amazing the results I get from eating meat. Sad most people continue with the SAD. Continue changing lives.
I’m battling sugar addiction too. I’m trying so hard and what also makes it bad is that my hubby won’t change his ways of eating. He wants to have his popcorn, ice cream, pretzels, cake, fruit, etc. and guess who has to make all that? Me! So it’s hard for me to stay away from it all. I may have little fruit with some whipped cream and cinnamon, but I’m doing better lately because I’m thinking about my health. You are a beautiful couple. Thanks for sharing your story☀️
Adding meat to my diet really helped a lot of things. No more cravings. Gained muscle. Better mood. My sense of smell returned strongly for some reason.
You two have a generous spirit. I was on a bulk for 11 months (nov 21-oct 22). At that point I traded in my last source of carbs, air-fried sweet potatoes. Since then I've been full on carnivore. Haven't felt better in decades. Great, consistent energy! Training recovery is no longer an issue. No aches or pain in my joints or lower back. All while gaining muscle & dropping fat! Body composition has been steadily improving. My meals are mostly ribeye steak with ghee. Sometimes I will have a ny strip, rib roast, or chuck roast. Every facet of our lives have more simplicity!! My lady enjoys carnivore! However, she's still has carbs, just less of them. And coffee is probably one she'll always use. We really appreciate the two of you! 🥩🥩 Thanks for sharing your journey with us 🔥
You’re a gorgeous couple! Your mindset is so important when it comes to overcoming cravings/addictions. I do the same as Elle said … make up my mind that I’m stronger than that craving. Feeling in control is powerful. The more you eat this way, the less cravings you have btw.
I'm on my full second week of clean eating, it was your words that changed the way I was eating, just red meat, water, and salt and I haven't felt this good in so long given I started eating the elimination way 3 months ago. I was trying to make my food all Alton Brown way given I was watching other UA-camrs making food all different ways and that obviously, that doesn't work for me. I started Carnivore to lessen my arthritis and hopefully start feeling better! ( which it's working! ) But my determination now is that ELLE had mentioned her RLS has improved by 99.9%, she replied in a previous vid, and now in this one, she mentioned RLS, IF I can improve my RLS by 60% that will be heaven given it's literally driving me bonkers!! Thank You for what you do! BE WELL GUYS>
I’m soo happy that I no longer suffer from RLS! It was horrible. I would be up all night and tired throughout the day. Hopefully it helps with yours too!
That's really great to hear! I'm glad that my videos could help inspire you to give it a try, and well done for seeing it through and getting the results that go with it!
My partner and I loved this interview. Thank you Anthony and Elle for sharing this with the world. Thank you Anthony for your Plant Free MD podcast and all the information that you are providing on this lifestyle. 🙌🙏
Thank you Dr. Chaffee and Elle-Marie for this video. I'm a recent subscriber from the UK, so couldn't catch the video live. I've suffered with ibs for many, many years, but since giving up veg & fruit, I have no pain. I am trying to go carnivore, but not rushing the process because I don't want to make my symptoms worse. Ps Elle-Marie is correct; chilblains are a well known condition. I have had them before and they're extremely itchy.
This was great to hear as someone who is currently Keto, but still struggling with some autoimmune conditions(psoriasis being one). I believe im ready to make the switch following this info. Thank you both and God bless. Keep doing what youre doing.
On Carnivore Elle's addiction to sweets took 6 months (she decided to deny her flesh, her desire ice cream) Elle's honest transparency gives me hope. Focused on the positive that her lolly or candy was not worth having her Psoriasis, bloating, and feeling sick after every meal --- return. Your complexion is amazing and Elle's faith in God is most refreshing. I pray Elle does not compromise her faith. We did not evolve, we were created by God ❤ The culture of today changes the meaning of words. Pride is no longer a sin, it is a month to celebrate same sex marriage. ❤ Enjoying my improved health on Ketovore. We must be most concerned about what God thinks, not our friends. Get married and be good for one another. ❤
It's nice to see two people so respectful towards one another and really enjoying/celebrating each other. And the love you two have one another shines through. Totally irrelevant to the subject but it is what stood out for me.
Greetings from Australia! Anthony, you play rugby so you are family! Elle, thanks for sharing your experience. I'm 75 year old, active, overweight due too much carbs, beer, sweets....but six weeks on carnivore (thanks to a Dr who is a carnivore who suggested I look up Dr Chaffe et al on youtube...I have lost 7 kg, feeling great, back at the gym, one meal a day (eat like a lion, meat, heavy fat...(that took some adjusting I can tell you), then nothing for 24 hours.Never hungry! Wish I got this when I was a young man....my wife of 49 years supports me (but disappointed we have too much food in the house but really supportive seeing my waist reducing). I feel hope. Thanks
That's great to hear Gerry! I'm really happy for you! And that's great that your doctor is carnivore and helping patients heal naturally. We need a lot more of them. Keep it up, you'll keep getting better and better as you go.
🙌loved the interview. I too use to get chilblains every year and I haven’t had them since switching carnivore. 56 female and thriving. Love your work doc
One of my favorite couples! I laughed about her friend warning that Doc was gonna cut her up and put her in his fridge. Funny because when i tell people i am carnivore i have had a few say, "you eat people???" And i remind them i said i am a carnivore not a cannibal!! Lol!! Always happy to see new content Doc!! Please keep getting the facts about optimal health out to the masses!!
You're very young things get better faster .. I am in my mid-40s and ketovore and I still can't sleep and still have other issues .. but you give me hope that one day, all my issues will go .
i just watch the interview that you did with Anthony just now , thank you so much for sharing , i have been a vegan for the last 13 years and my son is getting ready to join the royal marines, so i have been researching on grass fed beef and stuffs as i know it wont be easy being a vegan for him. i have researched a lot so i encouraged him to try organic eggs and meat ..only tiny amount for the last 3 days and he is already feeling great , said his pain that he had from his leg has improved so much, he has eliminated all the rubbish out of his diet too. but he still wants to eat fruits like pineapple and berries... i am thinking of trying it but very nervous. maybe one day i am in the UK ,maybe will look up on people who have transitioned from vegan to carnivore. i went vegan in order to detox and improve my well being which helped tremendously. but i living like this for the last 13 years hasn't been easy as we have to constantly watch what we are eating and take supplements to top it up. please keep up the good work and share more testimonies. God bless
Thank you ! I enjoy hearing peoples personal experiences with the carnivore lifestyle , I myself am amazed at all the benefits and surprised benefits after making the shift .
Awesome you found someone who was/is receptive to your knowledge and actually trusted you in trying. The fact that she did this, huge boost for you in building trust. Hope to find someone who is like minded as well. CARNIVORE 4 LIFE!!!
When she said how long it took to get over her sugar cravings, it was very encouraging!!! I get discouraged and stop-and wonder if maybe my body really needs the carbs- but now I’m inspired to try again 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
Elle Marie seems so sweet, it must have been quite a pressure to have your meals 'watched over' by Anthony Chaffee in the start.😂 Good talk, and I'm glad she feels good ❤ Thank you for this😊
I'm so glad you respected Dr. Chaffee's suggestions during meals about whether you want to eat a certain item because of possible repercussions of it. Some people might say, I'll eat it if I want to, then they suffer later and don't want to admit it. He knows what he is talking about and I really admire him and his desire to help people to heal themselves from the inside, with the carnivore diet😊
this is amazing! Met you guys by the pool last year at KetoCon at the Hyatt. Y'all are adorable. Thanks for all this information. I love Carnivore because it has helped my Ulcerative Colitis and it's so easy to prepare!!!
you two are adorable. But on a serios note. I have been moving more and more towards carnivore and my IBS has been so much better. Thank you for all you do yo educate the carnivore community. Don't let that woman go! I've been married almost 20 years and let me tell you that you two are meant to be together.
I’ve been carnivore for about a year after listening to you, Dr Berry and others. Stunned to hear of studies regarding longevity of people with glioblastoma on low keto and carnivore! So awesome! My friend in her 50’s was diagnosed with idiopathic renal failure a few yrs ago. She has had little luck with treatment and was recently told to get on the transplant list. I tried to get her to try carnivore but she’s afraid after her doctor told her to cut protein intake. Are there any studies regarding renal patients on low keto? Thanks for all you do to promote better health!
Raw kefir has done wonders for me. Took awhile to develop a taste for it but now I have it daily and unlike conventional dairy this is great with my digestion, helps actually.
This was so enjoyable! She is just darling, thanks for sharing your story. Now I'm going to go search what the heck a chillblain is...sounds downright Dickensian 😆
Sorry Dr. C... Chilblains Also called: pernio Main Results Description Skin sores or bumps that occur after exposure to very cold temperatures. Chilblains may be an abnormal blood vessel response. Women, underweight people, and those with Raynaud's phenomenon are at increased risk
I am so pleased that you are going to be on 60 minutes Australia I saw your short as I follow you on Utube, I have been doing the carnivore diet since march 1st and have lost 7kg, but what amazed me most was when the brain fog went, I still do coffee 1 raw sugar and milk. The funny thing is we have vegan family members and we simply agree to disagree.
Yes Doctor, chilblains is real and I have it as well. Winters are very challenging living with it and working outdoors in the Northwest. I am looking into going all carnivore to help with this and other issues similar to what Elle Marie spoke about. Thank you for all you do in getting this information out there. I hope and pray many will be helped and healed.
Great point about how people don’t correlate their disease state with what they’re eating and also how they think a pill will fix their problem. You don’t have a metformin deficiency. It’s the bad food you’re eating. Great great point!
Son of a BEOTCH!!! I am by process of elimination down to nearly completely carnivore. I am allergic to yeast from booze to kimchi. I was wondering why the last of my psoriasis wouldn't itch much anymore but wouldn't just go away. Well my only thing besides meat is pickles, olives, and cheese. Until you said cheese is fermented nothing in my brain ever considered yeast being in cheese. Holy crap I feel dumb. Well, thanks! Now I bet this shit will finally go away. I lost 12lbs in 10 days btw. I feel rediculously good at 53. Love your info and vibe man, keep being you!
I was diagnosed with "IBS" recently after suffering months of unbearable pain which even prevented me from working. The carnivore diet is restoring me to health and after only a month off carbs and plants and I am back at work. The absense of pain is euphoric and it far outwieghs the carb cravings. My body fat has dropped to the point that I am vascular and have visible abs for the first time in my life. I have more energy and a clearer mind. Much of my anxiety issues which medical authorities atributed to PTSD is now being resolved. A severe carb addiction had me stuck on a negative dopamine feedback loop for years. Going carnivore activates epigenitic mechanisms in the genome which produce very rapid phenotipical results. I am a carnivore evangelist now.
Enjoyed this video very much .. I am a 6 year carnivore, and I know what chilblains are, and I don't get them anymore .. my daughter lives in Perth Australia.. and she is carnivore as well.. blessing from Johannesburg South Africa 🇿🇦
You Both are awesome! Great chat and info on how this lifestyle works in real life for the Both of you individually and as a couple. I appreciate the honesty and transparency. Best wishes on your journey!
Dr Chaffee “There’s no such thing as a good carb.” Love you two together on camera! More episodes like this. Elle is absolutely gorgeous, well spoken and such a great role model. If you two come to FL we are taking you to Capa for rooftop steaks 🥩
Anthony…don’t be offended when she is honest, it is very rare, and much better than just saying something because you wanna hear that. And by the way…if she wanted to leave or run away and she didn’t, probably there was something about you that she liked more than she hated the thought you’re a carnivore, and that is the point where you can know that it can be something really powerful between you two :) Just saying (sorry a bit off topic, but it has to come out )
@@gerardzonjee I became fully carnivore 2 weeks before my birthday. Great, now what am I supposed to do for a birthday cake??? We made a carnivore cake with minced meat as the base (to give it shape) and surrounded it with scallops and topped it with prawns, octopus and crab, with candles on top. I made a similar one for my son's birthday too. They looked like the weirdest cakes ever but tasted great.
Love the video , still going strong I am a few weeks in now! Lost some weight, shoulder pain gone, skin clear. I have also realised how much butter I need to avoid constipation which is great. Ella you are a beauty !!
@@colinthomson5358 I think the butter thing varies, I'm still doing coffee but decaff and black with butter. Then I do 2 meals a day mainly beef with like a square chunk of butter. Not huge but a fair amount. Thnx for seasalt tip!
Good deal! As for me, not totally carnivore but nearly so. Never felt better and more important, my numbers are excellent health wise according to my doctor. Keep on doing what you do. It is important that people realize the importance of healthy eating whatever that might be for the individual. 😀
I really enjoyed this interview, my favorite MD's, girlfriend sharing her experiense's with the carnivore lifestyle. I'm only 7 months into my life as a carnivore, and feel great!
It was so lovely & amusing to listen to you both. Elouise is beautiful. Thank you for sharing 💖 It's lovely that you have an Aussie girlfriend. Thank God you're in Australia Dr Chaffey, you might be able to knock some sense into Aussie doctors! I was diagnosed with Psoriatic Arthritis 6 years ago and I have experienced excruciating pain and deformity in my fingers. I also was diagnosed MSUG and fatty liver. My GGT was elevated for years until I jacked up and told my doctor I was going to manage my own medication (ex nurse bossy boots). I weaned myself off Prednisalone and Methotrexate and managed with occasional Ibuprofen for years and got my GGT back to normal. However, after a naughty binge on lollies (candies) my excruciating pain has returned 50 fold and I've had an alarming rise in Keppa protein (which I'm convinced is related to my binge (or at least I hope it is). So, long story shortened, I've been checking out yourself and Dr Ken Berry and put myself on total Carnivore for the last week. Too early for blood results yet but I've lost 5 kg and my GORD of 20 years has totally disappeared.
Good to get to the meat of the matter and how the number 1 carnivore doctor came to meet his love interest. Of course those good looks were not meant to be alone.
I'm glad y'all don't have a hard time socially, maybe it's an Australian thing, maybe my significant issues are being from the South (USA) because literally every meat option is covered in sugar and other bad ingredients. It's been very difficult for me because I'm not one to rock the boat either and I try to just live the carnivore lifestyle going under the radar. But it hasn't been easy for me by any means, in fact I've spiraled out completely and I'm trying to regain my standing as a carnivore. However, thank y'all for the inspiration to live this lifestyle and not be so conscious about it. We don't have to be living advocates for this, we don't have to fight any battles with anyone else, we don't have to convince anyone else, we just have to live it ourselves.
i’m day 6 carnivore and at the end of day 4 gave into a sugar craving and got a small chocolate bar-next morning i woke with slight headache above my eye and a few pains around my feet so that experience was exactly what i needed to not go back there again!
A beautiful couple. I had to laugh when she was telling the story when you prepared the first dinner at your home, Dr. Chaffee...and she got to peek in your frig and it was full of meat. Sending a pic to her girlfriend who told her to get out of there.😂 I'm 69, eating Carnivore for 4 1/2yrs now. My gosh, all the benefits I've had, like allergies of 48yrs disappearing last yr.🎉 I had also graduated from Integrative Nutrition yrs prior. Was gluten-free for 20yrs, eating Paleo with tons of veggies, making almond butter, eating all the supposed superfoods, so when I saw my first video, an interview with Kelly Hogan, I was like, WHAT?!? I can only imagine what I would have thought dating someone who had a frig of nothing but meat.🤣 Happy for your sake she was open minded, because she's a lovely lady.💕
Snooped on your channel after seeing this preview. Love your interactions with your lovely daughter. Impressed with your expression of faith.... you're as beautiful on the inside as you are externally. ❤
@@Elle_Marie_ after reading Marianne's comment I too went to your channel and watched the videos with your lovely daughter. Hearing her compliment you and say how she wants to follow in your footsteps and become and entrepreneur because you're such and awesome person was very moving and sweet! You must be so proud of her! 😻 I grew up in Australia and sadly had to leave when I was 16 (56 now) because my mother had to move back to the Netherlands after her marriage broke down. I really wanted to finish high school and study (in Australia) and planned to go back after a few years. In the mean time I too became a hairdresser at 16 as I'd been cutting hair in the playground at school since I was 12 and loved doing it. So much so I never went back to study ( I did go back yo Oz after 3 yrs for 9 months but had changed too much) and worked in hairdressing for about 10 years. After that I became a sound engineer and excelled at that for 12 yrs, before working in ceramics for another 10. So I agree that doing what you love is so important and I can't wait to sit what your daughter ends up doing! Wishing you both well as of course, relationship wise with Anthony. 💜
Chilblains is a real thing Doctor. My sister and I had them as young children/teens and I had them a few times as an adult. They especially appeared during very cold Winters and as a reaction to putting your cold feet into hot baths. You can only prevent them by keeping your feet and hands constantly warm in Winter. Poor circulation of the extremities is typically a pre-condition. On top or underneath our toes, small blisters that were awful, itchy/sore. They are very painful and uncomfortable in general and take a long time to heal. I'm glad not to have them anymore. Another topic: My favourite restaurant order is grilled fresh fish (if possible the catch of the day) with plenty of butter. My favourite meal. Add oysters and I'm in heaven!
Listening to you two, I just equated 1: my current journey in discovering "Carnivore", and sharing it with my wife; with 2: our 25+ year journey learning and understanding the spiritual necessity and sufficiency of the Lord's headship dynamic.
Enjoyable and informative listen doc. And, Elle was not kidding when she said chilblains are real! I was also suffering from them intermittently; however when I cleaned up my diet (three years of keto and now 6 months or so of keto-vore), it all cleared up!
It’s strange isn’t it!? Most health professionals will say that chilblains are caused from the cold & poor blood circulation and they will tell you that there’s no cure for it! I started suffering from them from the age of about 8 years old all the way up until I started eating more meat and they have never come back!
This will be cute Dr. Chaffee! Hope you guys have a wonderful life, get married down the road once you know each other long enough, and later on have little Chaffees running around. ☺️
![Carnivore Diet Dangers? 2 Doctors Answer Questions [Dr Anthony Chaffee]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/bVj_kYUM0Sk/mqdefault.jpg)
I have been told since February 2001 by two gastroenterologists who treat my Crohn’s disease that I should not eat red meat, so I’ve been vegetarian or 90% vegetarian since then. With my health breaking down more and more, I switched to keto and now ketovore and added red meat for nearly a year. I’ve not felt this good in 20 years.
Wow! That is remarkable. I wish you well. Keep it up.
That's great! Have you watched my video on autoimmune diseases? I specifically talk about the research on Crohn's
@@anthonychaffeemd I have not seen your autoimmune disease video, but I will check it out. Thanks so much for the recommendation! - Angela
@@KT-dq5cp Sure but at the same time there have been many long term carnivores who regularly do blood work and are doing well. At what point is there enough evidence? Nutrition science is one of the softest sciences in the world, to get large scale, accurate, long term RCT’s is no small feat. Take for example cholesterol. We now have 5 meta analyses showing that cholesterol does not cause heart disease and that there is no correlation. Yet there are plenty of studies that say the opposite, I think that you will agree that Cholesterol is probably the most studied aspect of nutrition science and yet there is no consensus, in fact there are two diametrically opposed sides to the coin, both with “significant evidence” to support their arguments when realistically the weighting of the statistics in general shows nothing “causative” on either side. If the most studied thing in all of nutrition science for the last 50 years doesn’t have enough evidence to influence someone’s diet then we’re nowhere near having causative evidence on almost anything in regards to nutrition. Get your bloods done regularly, try and go by what is considered healthy levels of nutrients (not just the RDI’s), and constantly assess how you feel, that’s all you can do.
My friend had Crohn’s. His wife pushed veggies veggies veggies on him. He developed kidney stones and then a huge cancerous mass in his abdomen. Clearly the vegetables didn’t do him any good. He is now in an urn on the mantelpiece. 😢
Five years carnivore here. I wish everyone could feel this amazing peace, calmness, and focus.
I do too!
Lately I've been applying tallow to my face before sleep. This has brought me great peace.
How do you deal with all of the energy? I feel like im crawling out of my skin. But I also feel like super man
They have to take the red pill to truly see the real world! It's incomprehensible otherwise
Almost 4 months 100% carnivore…. But 95% before that for 7 years…. The last 5% has made all the difference!! Bloody bonza mate!
I am a 44 year old from Australia, I was diagnosed with epilepsy at age 14 and have had weight issues my entire adult life. I have now been on a animal based diet for 2-3 weeks, have lost inches off my waist and feel the best I have in my entire adult life
Really nice seeing a young, smart couple so compatible, mature, and well informed.
Thank you so much Donna!
Thank you very much! ☺️
don't know about young, Anthony is 45
@@ascendtoaesthetics 45 is not young???
@celialewis7447 no ways, that's almost middle age haha, not young at all. you could have almost full adult children at that age, it may not be old, but not young at all haha
Get married and have a whole carnivore family 🎉
Most beautiful couple! Hope she is your "
"keeper," makings for good looking children. I loved Neisha Berry's using a stick of butter to let Bonnie Blue teeth on it!
Didn't your feh-muh-lee teach you not to tell other people what to do unless asked?
Jesus don't get married. 😢😢😢😢
I love seeing beautiful, healthy, and well-educated couples pursuing optimal health together! It is so refreshing!
I appreciate that Elle said she knows not everyone has had as easy an experience as her when it comes to the social aspect of carnivore. My friends definitely don't agree with it and actively shove non-meat foods in my face constantly. Food is so much more confrontational than people may think.
Tell me about it!
I'm really sorry to hear that. The more I laugh things like that off and not let it bother me, the less other people seem interested in bringing it up as well. It's like people trying to get a rise out of you, if they think it doesn't bother you, they lose interest.
Absolutely. Even more controversial is multiday fasting, IMHO.
love, they are NOT your friends Im afraid :)
Get better friends
I'm a 35 yr old female and I've lost 56lbs since January 6 this year doing the carnivore woe! Inflammation gone plus many other problems gone!! I'm at 133 lbs now from 189!
That's fantastic! Great job!
@@anthonychaffeemd I just got some results back from blood test. It's showing that my BUN/creatinine ratio is high- 25 and my creatinine levels are low- .56. I also deal with very bad dizzy spells and almost blacking out. My doc did a test on me to check my bp and pulse. He said I have orthostatic hypotension (?). Any ideas what could be going on?
Wow!
@@JesusIsLord-4ever
Did you take the recent worldwide therapy?
Hey Anthony gee she's a pretty girl. And I'd like to thank you for all your tips and info. In your podcasts I'm a 62year old extremely obese woman at 158.8 kilo. Had surgery and put most of it back on. Heading for a wheel chair. On a walker. As my knees are bad and worn out. I started the diet on 1st august 2024 and I've lost 9.4 kilos on your carnivore lifestyle. Your my favourite coach as your an inspiration to me sticking to it. Lost all this weight in 24 days. Being strict. No sugar no carbs just fatty meat. Cutting coffee out as my knees are painful. Blood pressure down seriasis gone. Skin looks great feel energetic. Never felt better I have a cat too. I love meat. It's working thankyou Tania
Keep it up Tania! I am in a similar situation losing the weight while transitioning into carnivore. Coffee is next to cut off. Happy healing thoughts to you and those knees!
Can totally tell you’re a couple. You smile without smiling when you talk to her or when you’re just listening to her speak it’s a big smile. How cute
I think it would be nice to hear Elle talk more about overcoming her carb addiction. I think a lot of us struggle with that. Which is the biggest reason why it's so hard to stick to carnivore. Thank you for sharing your story Elle ❤
Absolutely
Kelly Hogan said something like “if you are hungry, eat a bowl of meat. If that doesn’t sound good, you aren’t hungry!” And that has stuck with me!! I do drink coffee and will have tea (no sugar) if I am really craving. I will be a year in July.
Same 🎉
Agree agree agree!
@@ajmason634 that’s good advice. One problem is that people don’t only eat because they are hungry.
Thank-you! I am 5’7” and I was in ICU the last week of December 2021 with Covid and fighting for my life at 300lbs. I was classified as morbidly obese and my lungs were riddled with Covid, and on BP meds for 10 years! Laying in ICU I committed that if I survived I would take control of my health! I went Keto-vore and lost 45 lbs in 3’ish months. Came off BP meds! Then I went carnivore and I am now down 90 lbs., and at nearly 54 yrs old I feel like 35! For the last 9 months started back my weight lifting and walk 5 days a week!
Your channel, while I don’t agree with everything you layout on evolution, the science behind carnivore really makes sense to me and has proven to be true with my body! My goal weight is 195-200 as I have always carried more muscle as an avid weightlifter from 16 yrs old to 22 yrs old,then got married and quit lifting and the. Started again at at 43 years old for 1 year and hurt my hip. Hobbled around for 7 years then got a full hip replacement 3 years ago. My biggest regret is not doing this so many years ago!!
Go fast, go straight! Be SAFE!
I'm so glad to hear that you are doing better! Keep it up, it just keeps getting better and better as you go!
@@anthonychaffeemd hello, is there a chance that I could ask you a question and you'd give me your point of view - not a recommendation or requirement, because obviously you're not my doctor... but I have a few questions needing answering, but I haven't got a doc who I could ask them...
would it be possible to ask you and get a reply? maybe an email? or WhatsApp, fb or other way?
thank you in advance 🙏👍
I started carnivore after watching you about 6 weeks ago. I am very obese but I can feel my clothes are looser already and I am moving around easier (I have been a yoyo dieter for 40 odd years... lose 10 kilo put on 20, lose 20 put on 30 etc.) It made me realise how full on the carb addiction is. For years I thought I had a hopeless food addiction... it was all carbs.
I had a small skin growth on my nose which has completely gone now since it appeared 12 years ago. It was a tiny thing but I keep touching the spot and find it amazing that in a mere 6 weeks of carnivore, its gone. Now my husband is interested and has been gradually replacing meals with all meat. He is in no way obese, but understands how humans have been lied to about what is healthy and what isn't and as we are in our 50's he's a bit keen to improve his health. Surprisingly I have not had any push back from anyone about this way of eating. People are very interested in a positive way, which surprised me.
My dad is 75 and I keep trying to get him on carnivore because he loves meat and I know he would do well on it. Its worth a try hahaha.
That's great, in so happy to hear that! And way to go being an example for others to follow. That's going to help them out immensely
Keep encouraging your dad it should be great for him
Yes, it is worth a try for your dad. Be a great example for him!
Same weight history as you, 61 years old, started Carnivore 7 weeks ago, read your comment and just checked my little skin growth on my forehead, gone! I've heard skin tags disappear as well, but have yet to see any improvement. Feel way better on Carnivore, my stomach is just quiet and calm. No cravings, food is not on my mind 24/7. Losing inches and weight, and just got over my first plateau, I decided to bring Diet Coke back into my diet. The sweeteners didn't trigger any cravings, but I immediately stopped losing weight. Stopped the DC and BINGO, back to losing.
@@forthrightnight yeah, the inflammation from processed food/garbage seems to do cause a slow down
Elle Marie is so sweet. I totally get how she was a little freaked out by Dr. C ‘s. Carnivore lifestyle in the beginning.
I really appreciate her perspective about “it’s not the last sweet thing I can eat. I can always go back if I want to”. It really helped me see that I’m not powerless against the sugar addiction. I have a choice. It also helped to hear that it took 6mths to really get beyond the cravings. That way if I’m 3 mths in I won’t feel guilty for just having a craving. Hearing her say that it’s just part of the process was really helpful. Thank you!
I'm really glad that was helpful!
I’m glad that it helped! ☺️
@@Elle_Marie_ I thought those points were very informative also. I really hate I didn't take more time to speak with the two of you when we met in February. I'm glad you did this chat/interview. I still use dairy also, especially cheese. I've never had a problem with it, but think I will cut back some.
@@anthonychaffeemd anything processed that says KETO on it in the store should be avoided. Whole foods are always best. I agree, no fruit on Keto, not necessarily NO carb but very low is best, at least under 50 g, but under 20 g/day is best. Sometimes the veggies have a few carbs. I went to the Carnivore Way of Eating about 2 years ago and have healed from Metabolic syndrome and associated ills.
Same here. I can always have chocolate later. It's not like that is last piece of chocolate I'll ever have.
I love your girlfriend!! Thanks so much for having her on! As a single woman in my 30s I love hearing her perspective and experience, and hope I can find a carnivore guy bc y’all are so cute together! ❤❤
I appreciate her honesty about the carb cravings. It's been hard for me until recently. I've been carnivore for about seven months.
Jj 41:06
She had me at “Everytime I saw you, you gave me a lot of meat” 😂😂
😂😂
Sounds like nice dates 😂
🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha...good one
Also, the SOS call. lol
One whole month on carnivore. It may not be much for some but I've been having the best sleep of my adult life. No inflammation and no brain fog. Dr. Chaffee, I've never seen you so happy during an interview on your channel as with this one. This is the most healthy, respectable, and intellectual couple I've seen in a long time! Thank you for the video!
Elle is the envy of all the ladies who swoon over Doc! Good luck to you guys, it appears that you communicate well together, that’s really important to a long lasting relationship! Cheers 🥂
Thank you very much!
A relationship is in big trouble without good communication.
Yup. I’m totally heartbroken 😂
No pressure, Dr Chaffee but wow, I can picture in my mind the wedding photos…the two of you would be blinding us all with the gorgeous overload!
In all seriousness, thank you to Elle for sharing her journey and thank you again for doing what you are doing for real nutrition education. Great interview.
I am 66 years old and I started carnivore in July last year. It was the easiest thing I have ever done for my health. I have been on every diet that has come down the pipe most of my life. I’ve never had such an easy time changing my way of eating before or gotten such quick results in my health. My boyfriend at the time (now my husband) saw my results and began carnivore in August. He is about to turn 76 and has COPD. Just walking out to the street and back his O2 levels would drop into the 80’s and even high 70’s sometime. He had to carry a portable oxygen unit around everywhere he went.
He has lost 60 pounds since then and hasn’t used any oxygen (portable unit or nighttime unit) since September. I know they say COPD can only be managed or get worse and can’t improve, but my husband has certainly improved. His Pulmonologist (A Keto-Vore) is thrilled with his improvement. Not only does he feel so much better, but he even looks younger. So many health issues have improved for him. He’s been climbing ladders to install blinds, hang curtains, install security systems and other things that I try and talk him out of. LOL
We have a wonderful relationship and I have to say (without getting too personal), but we have powerful libidos that rival that of our youth. That was so surprising and unexpected to me. I didn’t see that coming. It’s just one of soooooooo many healthy improvements for us. I know for a fact that my body was extremely “Meat Deficient” before carnivore. Neither of us can believe the changes it has made in our lives.
Thank you Dr. Chaffee. I love your channel.
Wow, what a beautiful story, thank you for sharing. 😊 I feel so encouraged reading about your improvements! ❤
Such a lovely natural girl, she's a keeper doc. It's great to see such a beautiful couple enjoying each other's company.
Thank you! ☺️
You both are such a lovely couple! So genuine and authentic. It’s rare these days. Good bless you both ❤️🙏❤️
Thank you so much, bless you too!
Hi doc,
I’m a 54 year old male.
Been on carnivore for 2 years.
I feel great. Only fatty red meat and butter
For me. I lift weights and hike,
Amazing the results I get from eating meat.
Sad most people continue with the SAD.
Continue changing lives.
That's great! I'm really happy to hear that. Keep up the good work!
No eggs ??
I’m battling sugar addiction too. I’m trying so hard and what also makes it bad is that my hubby won’t change his ways of eating. He wants to have his popcorn, ice cream, pretzels, cake, fruit, etc. and guess who has to make all that? Me! So it’s hard for me to stay away from it all. I may have little fruit with some whipped cream and cinnamon, but I’m doing better lately because I’m thinking about my health. You are a beautiful couple. Thanks for sharing your story☀️
I love how Anthony always is taking notes! Such a beautiful couple!!
Adding meat to my diet really helped a lot of things. No more cravings. Gained muscle. Better mood. My sense of smell returned strongly for some reason.
Zinc
Please, do you cook the meet o is it simply raw?
@@DL-ep5uk . Ok. Thanks 🙏!
You two seem so harmonious together, she brings a soft side out of him
You two have a generous spirit. I was on a bulk for 11 months (nov 21-oct 22). At that point I traded in my last source of carbs, air-fried sweet potatoes. Since then I've been full on carnivore. Haven't felt better in decades. Great, consistent energy! Training recovery is no longer an issue. No aches or pain in my joints or lower back. All while gaining muscle & dropping fat!
Body composition has been steadily improving.
My meals are mostly ribeye steak with ghee. Sometimes I will have a ny strip, rib roast, or chuck roast. Every facet of our lives have more simplicity!! My lady enjoys carnivore! However, she's still has carbs, just less of them. And coffee is probably one she'll always use.
We really appreciate the two of you! 🥩🥩
Thanks for sharing your journey with us 🔥
You’re a gorgeous couple! Your mindset is so important when it comes to overcoming cravings/addictions. I do the same as Elle said … make up my mind that I’m stronger than that craving. Feeling in control is powerful. The more you eat this way, the less cravings you have btw.
She is gorgeous ❤️ She needs to show us more how she prepares her carnivore meals👏🏼👏🏼
Great conversation. You two make a wonderful couple. I love the information always about carnivore which is my way of life now.
Thank you
I'm on my full second week of clean eating, it was your words that changed the way I was eating, just red meat, water, and salt and I haven't felt this good in so long given I started eating the elimination way 3 months ago. I was trying to make my food all Alton Brown way given I was watching other UA-camrs making food all different ways and that obviously, that doesn't work for me. I started Carnivore to lessen my arthritis and hopefully start feeling better! ( which it's working! ) But my determination now is that ELLE had mentioned her RLS has improved by 99.9%, she replied in a previous vid, and now in this one, she mentioned RLS, IF I can improve my RLS by 60% that will be heaven given it's literally driving me bonkers!! Thank You for what you do! BE WELL GUYS>
I’m soo happy that I no longer suffer from RLS! It was horrible. I would be up all night and tired throughout the day. Hopefully it helps with yours too!
That's really great to hear! I'm glad that my videos could help inspire you to give it a try, and well done for seeing it through and getting the results that go with it!
I have RLS and hoping this way of eating will help it go away as well as my osteoarthritis joint pain. So tired of pain, been going on toooo long.
My partner and I loved this interview. Thank you Anthony and Elle for sharing this with the world.
Thank you Anthony for your Plant Free MD podcast and all the information that you are providing on this lifestyle. 🙌🙏
Thank you Dr. Chaffee and Elle-Marie for this video. I'm a recent subscriber from the UK, so couldn't catch the video live. I've suffered with ibs for many, many years, but since giving up veg & fruit, I have no pain. I am trying to go carnivore, but not rushing the process because I don't want to make my symptoms worse. Ps Elle-Marie is correct; chilblains are a well known condition. I have had them before and they're extremely itchy.
This was great to hear as someone who is currently Keto, but still struggling with some autoimmune conditions(psoriasis being one). I believe im ready to make the switch following this info. Thank you both and God bless. Keep doing what youre doing.
For me psoriasis was gone after 3 months and horrible keto rash
So awesome that you have a partner in your life journey, Dr. Chaffee!😀
On Carnivore Elle's addiction to sweets took 6 months (she decided to deny her flesh, her desire ice cream) Elle's honest transparency gives me hope. Focused on the positive that her lolly or candy was not worth having her Psoriasis, bloating, and feeling sick after every meal --- return. Your complexion is amazing and Elle's faith in God is most refreshing. I pray Elle does not compromise her faith. We did not evolve, we were created by God ❤ The culture of today changes the meaning of words. Pride is no longer a sin, it is a month to celebrate same sex marriage. ❤ Enjoying my improved health on Ketovore. We must be most concerned about what God thinks, not our friends. Get married and be good for one another. ❤
It's nice to see two people so respectful towards one another and really enjoying/celebrating each other. And the love you two have one another shines through. Totally irrelevant to the subject but it is what stood out for me.
Greetings from Australia! Anthony, you play rugby so you are family! Elle, thanks for sharing your experience. I'm 75 year old, active, overweight due too much carbs, beer, sweets....but six weeks on carnivore (thanks to a Dr who is a carnivore who suggested I look up Dr Chaffe et al on youtube...I have lost 7 kg, feeling great, back at the gym, one meal a day (eat like a lion, meat, heavy fat...(that took some adjusting I can tell you), then nothing for 24 hours.Never hungry! Wish I got this when I was a young man....my wife of 49 years supports me (but disappointed we have too much food in the house but really supportive seeing my waist reducing). I feel hope. Thanks
That's great to hear Gerry! I'm really happy for you! And that's great that your doctor is carnivore and helping patients heal naturally. We need a lot more of them. Keep it up, you'll keep getting better and better as you go.
🙌loved the interview. I too use to get chilblains every year and I haven’t had them since switching carnivore. 56 female and thriving. Love your work doc
One of my favorite couples! I laughed about her friend warning that Doc was gonna cut her up and put her in his fridge. Funny because when i tell people i am carnivore i have had a few say, "you eat people???" And i remind them i said i am a carnivore not a cannibal!! Lol!! Always happy to see new content Doc!! Please keep getting the facts about optimal health out to the masses!!
Haha yes some people think that carnivore and cannibal are the same thing! 😅
You're very young things get better faster .. I am in my mid-40s and ketovore and I still can't sleep and still have other issues .. but you give me hope that one day, all my issues will go .
Just keep with it and try to get down to meat and water, it red meat if possible. I'm 43 myself, and I feel fantastic
@Anthony Chaffee MD Thank you . I have a couple of little things to kick, like dairy hope that will transform things more .
@@highvibrationalalignmentAny progress?
i just watch the interview that you did with Anthony just now , thank you so much for sharing , i have been a vegan for the last 13 years and my son is getting ready to join the royal marines, so i have been researching on grass fed beef and stuffs as i know it wont be easy being a vegan for him. i have researched a lot so i encouraged him to try organic eggs and meat ..only tiny amount for the last 3 days and he is already feeling great , said his pain that he had from his leg has improved so much, he has eliminated all the rubbish out of his diet too. but he still wants to eat fruits like pineapple and berries... i am thinking of trying it but very nervous. maybe one day i am in the UK ,maybe will look up on people who have transitioned from vegan to carnivore. i went vegan in order to detox and improve my well being which helped tremendously. but i living like this for the last 13 years hasn't been easy as we have to constantly watch what we are eating and take supplements to top it up. please keep up the good work and share more testimonies. God bless
Thank you ! I enjoy hearing peoples personal experiences with the carnivore lifestyle , I myself am amazed at all the benefits and surprised benefits after making the shift .
Awesome you found someone who was/is receptive to your knowledge and actually trusted you in trying. The fact that she did this, huge boost for you in building trust.
Hope to find someone who is like minded as well.
CARNIVORE 4 LIFE!!!
When she said how long it took to get over her sugar cravings, it was very encouraging!!! I get discouraged and stop-and wonder if maybe my body really needs the carbs- but now I’m inspired to try again 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
Great discussion! Thank you Dr. Chaffee and Elle Marie!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the talk- socialising can be hard sometimes-- and I do get a lot of flack --
Yeah I bet. I'm really sorry to hear that, hopefully that settles down when people get used to it
Elle Marie seems so sweet, it must have been quite a pressure to have your meals 'watched over' by Anthony Chaffee in the start.😂 Good talk, and I'm glad she feels good ❤ Thank you for this😊
Haha yes it did feel like that in the beginning… but not anymore! And thank you ☺️
I'm so glad you respected Dr. Chaffee's suggestions during meals about whether you want to eat a certain item because of possible repercussions of it. Some people might say, I'll eat it if I want to, then they suffer later and don't want to admit it. He knows what he is talking about and I really admire him and his desire to help people to heal themselves from the inside, with the carnivore diet😊
this is amazing! Met you guys by the pool last year at KetoCon at the Hyatt. Y'all are adorable. Thanks for all this information. I love Carnivore because it has helped my Ulcerative Colitis and it's so easy to prepare!!!
you two are adorable.
But on a serios note. I have been moving more and more towards carnivore and my IBS has been so much better. Thank you for all you do yo educate the carnivore community.
Don't let that woman go! I've been married almost 20 years and let me tell you that you two are meant to be together.
I’ve been carnivore for about a year after listening to you, Dr Berry and others. Stunned to hear of studies regarding longevity of people with glioblastoma on low keto and carnivore! So awesome! My friend in her 50’s was diagnosed with idiopathic renal failure a few yrs ago. She has had little luck with treatment and was recently told to get on the transplant list. I tried to get her to try carnivore but she’s afraid after her doctor told her to cut protein intake. Are there any studies regarding renal patients on low keto? Thanks for all you do to promote better health!
Raw kefir has done wonders for me. Took awhile to develop a taste for it but now I have it daily and unlike conventional dairy this is great with my digestion, helps actually.
Another kefir fan here!
Yesss just wish it was cheaper 😂
Make it yourself Just buy kefir grains and milk .
I love this conversation and it was very informative. Thank you so much for sharing your lives.💕
This was so enjoyable! She is just darling, thanks for sharing your story. Now I'm going to go search what the heck a chillblain is...sounds downright Dickensian 😆
Sorry Dr. C...
Chilblains
Also called: pernio
Main Results
Description
Skin sores or bumps that occur after exposure to very cold temperatures.
Chilblains may be an abnormal blood vessel response. Women, underweight people, and those with Raynaud's phenomenon are at increased risk
I have reynauds phenomenon but never had chilblains
Great video Anthony. Keep up the fantastic work & keep pushing the message!
Thank you very much!
@@anthonychaffeemd Would be great to see you do a video with Kerry over at HomeSteadHow channel who's doing amazingly well on his carnivore journey.
I am so pleased that you are going to be on 60 minutes Australia I saw your short as I follow you on Utube, I have been doing the carnivore diet since march 1st and have lost 7kg, but what amazed me most was when the brain fog went, I still do coffee 1 raw sugar and milk. The funny thing is we have vegan family members and we simply agree to disagree.
Yes Doctor, chilblains is real and I have it as well. Winters are very challenging living with it and working outdoors in the Northwest. I am looking into going all carnivore to help with this and other issues similar to what Elle Marie spoke about. Thank you for all you do in getting this information out there. I hope and pray many will be helped and healed.
I love the start of this...re-living their 1st meeting. So sweet/teasing/love it.
Beautiful couple ❤ Thank you for educating us all God Bless you both 🙏🏼❤️💪🏼
Very enjoyable video, really interesting to hear your history. Both of you are glowing paragons of health!
I figured you had a smoke show for a girlfriend. I was not wrong! lol. Thanks for all your great videos Dr. Keep up the great content!
Great point about how people don’t correlate their disease state with what they’re eating and also how they think a pill will fix their problem. You don’t have a metformin deficiency. It’s the bad food you’re eating. Great great point!
Son of a BEOTCH!!! I am by process of elimination down to nearly completely carnivore. I am allergic to yeast from booze to kimchi. I was wondering why the last of my psoriasis wouldn't itch much anymore but wouldn't just go away. Well my only thing besides meat is pickles, olives, and cheese. Until you said cheese is fermented nothing in my brain ever considered yeast being in cheese. Holy crap I feel dumb. Well, thanks! Now I bet this shit will finally go away. I lost 12lbs in 10 days btw. I feel rediculously good at 53. Love your info and vibe man, keep being you!
I was diagnosed with "IBS" recently after suffering months of unbearable pain which even prevented me from working. The carnivore diet is restoring me to health and after only a month off carbs and plants and I am back at work. The absense of pain is euphoric and it far outwieghs the carb cravings. My body fat has dropped to the point that I am vascular and have visible abs for the first time in my life. I have more energy and a clearer mind. Much of my anxiety issues which medical authorities atributed to PTSD is now being resolved. A severe carb addiction had me stuck on a negative dopamine feedback loop for years. Going carnivore activates epigenitic mechanisms in the genome which produce very rapid phenotipical results. I am a carnivore evangelist now.
Love this ❤ some of the anecdotes had me laughing out loud. Entertaining and informative chat - thanks guys!
She's beautiful! I hope you guys stay together!
Enjoyed this video very much .. I am a 6 year carnivore, and I know what chilblains are, and I don't get them anymore .. my daughter lives in Perth Australia.. and she is carnivore as well.. blessing from Johannesburg South Africa 🇿🇦
You Both are awesome! Great chat and info on how this lifestyle works in real life for the Both of you individually and as a couple. I appreciate the honesty and transparency. Best wishes on your journey!
Dr Chaffee
“There’s no such thing as a good carb.”
Love you two together on camera!
More episodes like this.
Elle is absolutely gorgeous, well spoken and such a great role model.
If you two come to FL we are taking you to Capa for rooftop steaks 🥩
That would be amazing! Thank you, I'm glad you liked it!
Most smiling you've ever done Doc! She is changing you in a good way!
Anthony…don’t be offended when she is honest, it is very rare, and much better than just saying something because you wanna hear that. And by the way…if she wanted to leave or run away and she didn’t, probably there was something about you that she liked more than she hated the thought you’re a carnivore, and that is the point where you can know that it can be something really powerful between you two :) Just saying (sorry a bit off topic, but it has to come out )
I remember the "High". I'm so glad I'm passed the sugar addiction. I'm a happy carnivore. I'm now addicted to rib-eyes.
Cant wait for the wedding 😬, beautiful couple ❤❤
I wonder what a wedding cake made out of meatloaf looks like… 😉
@@gerardzonjee I became fully carnivore 2 weeks before my birthday. Great, now what am I supposed to do for a birthday cake??? We made a carnivore cake with minced meat as the base (to give it shape) and surrounded it with scallops and topped it with prawns, octopus and crab, with candles on top. I made a similar one for my son's birthday too. They looked like the weirdest cakes ever but tasted great.
Love the video , still going strong I am a few weeks in now! Lost some weight, shoulder pain gone, skin clear. I have also realised how much butter I need to avoid constipation which is great. Ella you are a beauty !!
How much butter? I think eating more seasalt can help with constipation too. A extra 2-6 grams depending on how much you eat on food.
@@colinthomson5358 I think the butter thing varies, I'm still doing coffee but decaff and black with butter. Then I do 2 meals a day mainly beef with like a square chunk of butter. Not huge but a fair amount. Thnx for seasalt tip!
Wow Doc! She’s beautiful and she seems very sweet. You’re a lucky man.
Good deal! As for me, not totally carnivore but nearly so. Never felt better and more important, my numbers are excellent health wise according to my doctor. Keep on doing what you do. It is important that people realize the importance of healthy eating whatever that might be for the individual. 😀
I really enjoyed this interview, my favorite MD's, girlfriend sharing her experiense's with the carnivore lifestyle. I'm only 7 months into my life as a carnivore, and feel great!
How lovely is Elle. Her voice is like honey (dare I say it?)😊
It was so lovely & amusing to listen to you both. Elouise is beautiful. Thank you for sharing 💖 It's lovely that you have an Aussie girlfriend.
Thank God you're in Australia Dr Chaffey, you might be able to knock some sense into Aussie doctors! I was diagnosed with Psoriatic Arthritis 6 years ago and I have experienced excruciating pain and deformity in my fingers. I also was diagnosed MSUG and fatty liver. My GGT was elevated for years until I jacked up and told my doctor I was going to manage my own medication (ex nurse bossy boots). I weaned myself off Prednisalone and Methotrexate and managed with occasional Ibuprofen for years and got my GGT back to normal. However, after a naughty binge on lollies (candies) my excruciating pain has returned 50 fold and I've had an alarming rise in Keppa protein (which I'm convinced is related to my binge (or at least I hope it is).
So, long story shortened, I've been checking out yourself and Dr Ken Berry and put myself on total Carnivore for the last week. Too early for blood results yet but I've lost 5 kg and my GORD of 20 years has totally disappeared.
Good to get to the meat of the matter and how the number 1 carnivore doctor came to meet his love interest. Of course those good looks were not meant to be alone.
he is such a chad
Haha, well hopefully you guys like it, and enjoy hearing a bit of our back story
YESSSSSSS!!! More Elle! 🎉
❤❤
Love Elle Marie ❤ good interview 👍
Thank you!
What a beautiful soul ❤ great to hear her story.
I'm glad y'all don't have a hard time socially, maybe it's an Australian thing, maybe my significant issues are being from the South (USA) because literally every meat option is covered in sugar and other bad ingredients. It's been very difficult for me because I'm not one to rock the boat either and I try to just live the carnivore lifestyle going under the radar. But it hasn't been easy for me by any means, in fact I've spiraled out completely and I'm trying to regain my standing as a carnivore.
However, thank y'all for the inspiration to live this lifestyle and not be so conscious about it. We don't have to be living advocates for this, we don't have to fight any battles with anyone else, we don't have to convince anyone else, we just have to live it ourselves.
i’m day 6 carnivore and at the end of day 4 gave into a sugar craving and got a small chocolate bar-next morning i woke with slight headache above my eye and a few pains around my feet so that experience was exactly what i needed to not go back there again!
The first five minutes are gold. Glad you didn't edit it out.
😂 I’m glad you liked it!
Cute couple! Love her hair
A beautiful couple. I had to laugh when she was telling the story when you prepared the first dinner at your home, Dr. Chaffee...and she got to peek in your frig and it was full of meat. Sending a pic to her girlfriend who told her to get out of there.😂
I'm 69, eating Carnivore for 4 1/2yrs now. My gosh, all the benefits I've had, like allergies of 48yrs disappearing last yr.🎉 I had also graduated from Integrative Nutrition yrs prior. Was gluten-free for 20yrs, eating Paleo with tons of veggies, making almond butter, eating all the supposed superfoods, so when I saw my first video, an interview with Kelly Hogan, I was like, WHAT?!? I can only imagine what I would have thought dating someone who had a frig of nothing but meat.🤣 Happy for your sake she was open minded, because she's a lovely lady.💕
Snooped on your channel after seeing this preview. Love your interactions with your lovely daughter. Impressed with your expression of faith.... you're as beautiful on the inside as you are externally. ❤
Very sweet thank you!
@@Elle_Marie_ after reading Marianne's comment I too went to your channel and watched the videos with your lovely daughter. Hearing her compliment you and say how she wants to follow in your footsteps and become and entrepreneur because you're such and awesome person was very moving and sweet! You must be so proud of her! 😻
I grew up in Australia and sadly had to leave when I was 16 (56 now) because my mother had to move back to the Netherlands after her marriage broke down. I really wanted to finish high school and study (in Australia) and planned to go back after a few years. In the mean time I too became a hairdresser at 16 as I'd been cutting hair in the playground at school since I was 12 and loved doing it. So much so I never went back to study ( I did go back yo Oz after 3 yrs for 9 months but had changed too much) and worked in hairdressing for about 10 years. After that I became a sound engineer and excelled at that for 12 yrs, before working in ceramics for another 10. So I agree that doing what you love is so important and I can't wait to sit what your daughter ends up doing! Wishing you both well as of course, relationship wise with Anthony. 💜
Chilblains is a real thing Doctor. My sister and I had them as young children/teens and I had them a few times as an adult. They especially appeared during very cold Winters and as a reaction to putting your cold feet into hot baths. You can only prevent them by keeping your feet and hands constantly warm in Winter. Poor circulation of the extremities is typically a pre-condition. On top or underneath our toes, small blisters that were awful, itchy/sore. They are very painful and uncomfortable in general and take a long time to heal. I'm glad not to have them anymore.
Another topic: My favourite restaurant order is grilled fresh fish (if possible the catch of the day) with plenty of butter. My favourite meal. Add oysters and I'm in heaven!
Listening to you two, I just equated
1: my current journey in discovering "Carnivore", and sharing it with my wife; with
2: our 25+ year journey learning and understanding the spiritual necessity and sufficiency of the Lord's headship dynamic.
She is so great, why aren't you married yet. If I had all this awesome qualities, my bf would not let me leave the house lol!!
😂😂
Enjoyable and informative listen doc. And, Elle was not kidding when she said chilblains are real! I was also suffering from them intermittently; however when I cleaned up my diet (three years of keto and now 6 months or so of keto-vore), it all cleared up!
It’s strange isn’t it!? Most health professionals will say that chilblains are caused from the cold & poor blood circulation and they will tell you that there’s no cure for it! I started suffering from them from the age of about 8 years old all the way up until I started eating more meat and they have never come back!
Yep chill blains are real ! I used to get them if I put my cold feet in front of the heater ! They are itchy and sore all at the same time!
Mine would do that but I didn't get sores.
This will be cute Dr. Chaffee! Hope you guys have a wonderful life, get married down the road once you know each other long enough, and later on have little Chaffees running around. ☺️
Thank you very much! I hope you like it!
@@catsrus2890 i know, it’s super cute! They need to have many little chaffees on the carnivore diet! Would be adorable!
“This guy is going to cut me up and put me in his fridge” 😂 🤣
😂
Very good discussion. Thank you for sharing! I always learn something and like hearing about others experiences.
