Quality seafood is definitely healthy, emphasis on "quality". Farmed fish has notable issues that farmed beef doesn't suffer from, probably because of water quality issues in enclosed systems that beef on the wide open plains of the Midwest doesn't face.
Catfish and tilapia taste way better farm-raised than wild
@@mazlosoutdooradventures8594 I would steer clear of them anyway unless you’re growing them yourself
@@jamesdempsey5702 Plenty of cows outside :O)
I liked this style of video. That is, it’s not overproduced and frenetic with a bunch jump cuts and stupid animation like some of the more recent attempts. It strikes a really good tone. More like these please.
My thoughts also. And I can't stand the ones with cartoons and sound effects. I thought I was going to have to stop watching, but this is good.
absolutely, solid info but not overbearing or silly
I love getting oysters, mussels, geoducks and herring roe. They're free on the beaches around here.
I love wild Salmon. I probably have that a few times a month
Love seafood. I eat a tin of sardines in water two or three times a week for the omega 3's. It is also a great way to get calcium and a load of other great vitamins, minerals, etc.
Same here! Vitamin D in it as well
@@Tooni8282 yes it does! Much needed this time of year especially
A lot of people sleep on sardines, but for the price and amount of protein you get per can it's honestly amazing.
I can't find sardines with skin and bones. Where do you find these?
@@denisedecker7330 my local Krogers
Great video Doc! I am up in Maine, and I do add a lot of seafood to my diet, but it's generally as a side to my steaks. I did learn a valuable lesson yesterday though. My boss took me out to lunch and after eating $72 worth of sashimi, I still had to go back home and have a ribeye, because I just was not satiated at all.
Keep up the good work and keep that valuable content coming!
$72 worth of sashimi!!?? Wowzers! I did the same the other night... but only $28 worth lol ... I needed more but was too cheap to order another plate. LOL
@@davidzaharik5408 I certainly wouldn't have spent that, but my boss kept insisting I order more. I could have easily kept eating, but really started to feel guilty about how expensive it was getting.
That type of fish is very low calorie. Perfect if you are trying to lose weight while taking in maximum amounts of protein.
@@Don21071 Oh man it is expensive but a nice break ... Everyone else had prime rib! But I am going back Saturday night and having prime rib ... 16 oz slice... 😁
I am as well. I worked on a boat for years and ate all the lobster I wanted. This year I’m just gonna get my 5 trap license and stock the freezer. 🦞
Shawn ! HELLO FROM GUAM AGAIN !!! 👍💪❤🏝 !!! I started the "CARNIVORE DIET" last October and to my surprise I recently weighed myself and discovered that I have lost 27 lbs. ... ... and I was NOT even trying to lose weight!
@@Jammer411 I used to run the "Inter Island Freighter" so YES i have been to all the Islands in this chain. Living on GUAM is like the "States" back in the 50s ~ 60s. I am soooo glad i moved here back in the 80s !
Hey SHAWN ! HELLO FROM GUAM !!!👍💪❤🏝 I am a 70 year young RETIRED SHIP CAPTAIN and while participating in "TOURNAMENTS" that lasted through a 3 day weekend you don't get much sleep, maybe 3 hours a night. Between preparing the boat, including engine checks, lure repair, and welcoming the customers, this mandates that Captain and crew be awake at 03:30h. Fish from 06:00 to 18:00 (12 hrs.) and when you get in you have to weigh your catch, do a photo session with customers, put the boat back away, do any necessary repairs ... when all is done it is reaching MIDNIGHT ! Next day "REPEAT ! You may get 3 hours of sleep if you are lucky ! So when I would get in after the 1st. day I would be sure to eat some sashimi because it would provide the ENERGY NEEDED to keep me going for the next day ! Most of the Captains I know do this for the same reasons ! IT WORKS !
I eat fatty wild caught cold water fish daily as well as red meat daily. For myself the result has been increased HDL and much lower triglycerides. I did not experience this with a fish oil supplements. For me a variety of meat, eggs and cheese from different sources works. With that said quality of the product is paramount.
I wish I could eat dairy. 😬
@@denisedecker7330 I feel for you. I would be lost without cheese.
Good to see you on Rumble, Doc!
This was the best edited video out of the recent ones
I miss the old school videos.
Great content Shawn! Thanks for including comments on supplements, too.
A few things: Sardines can't be farmed due to their short lifespans, so all sardines are 'wild caught.' River fish will be less contaminated with heavy metals but also lower in iodine. Also, along with selenium helping against metals in the body, cruciferous vegetables will detox metals, including radiation (cauliflower, broccoli, brussel sprouts, radishes and kale). Fasting helps a bit too.
Awesome content thanks
This is the best format so far
Thank you for removing the background music. It’s so much better. You’ve never needed any music to sound interesting. 😊
Great info!! Thank u!! All good!! Starting into month 2 on carnivore!! 💞🧜♀️💞
love it prawns and egg for breakfast, beef for evening meal, living the dream!!!
Seafood tastes better for breakfast!
I eat a tin can of sardines almost everyday. I love ‘em. Thanks Dr. Baker for the content. Been carnivore since January 1st. Hope it clears up my eczema 🙏🏼
Very Well Done!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
"I See Food I Eat It"
😆 The "See-Food Diet" (Not anymore though, right? 🤔)
The majority of my protein is eggs. Full stop.
But for meats...
The most common meat in my diet is hamburger meat, whether I'm doing keto or not.
The 2nd most common meat in my diet is bacon.
After that, seafood and steak are comparable in frequency. I would guess that I am eating 2 meals per week of each.
And when I am doing keto, then fish become a HUGE part of my diet. Kipper snacks are my go-to keto "between meals snack".
I also always have a few pounds of shrimp in my freezer and I'll make up a good 1 pound of shrimp plus a hot-mustard dip sauce when I am watching a game on TV, which is generally limited to if the Giants (baseball), Kings (basketball) or 49ers are in a playoff game.
I eat fish and seafood every day but with a main serving of beef and eggs. I pretty thrive on carnivore but beef is my main priority as it tastes the best and makes me feel very satisfied. I only poach, steam or bake my fish and seafood. I might add a bit of salt but it is so tasty on its own. Everything is tastier on carnivore. 5 years in and counting…
You are simply the best.
Another good informative video Dr. Baker, thank you. On carnivore diet since Sept, and what I found interesting is if I eat salmon in the evening- it makes me get the restless leg syndrome by throwing off my electrolytes. I did a search and it is higher in potassium than magnesium, so wondering if that is related. Very odd. Had to mention that. Only happens if I eat it a few hours before bed. I tried it at least three different times, one day per week. And consistently get the same results. Something someone can look into.
Thank you!
Since becoming Carnivore, I don't really crave any other meat besides beef. Turkey & salmon are just side dishes now. Bison, lamb, elk, etc. are okay but not my main go to.
All good points!! We need to be cognizant of the sources for all animals we consume. I think that if you live where fresh seafood is available it is a very good part of a carnivore WOE. We in Florida are very fortunate to be able to have good fresh seafood, although near-shore fish such as Mullet could be contaminated in heavily populated areas such as the Tampa Bay area. I hesitate to eat any Salmon any more because we don't get much other than farm-raised.
Thanks for all of your great videos! I have been following you and a number of other 'Carnivore Docs' for months now and have really learned a great deal... my husband and I have been mostly Carnivore for about 4-5 months now and I'm getting frustrated with the scale. I literally have not lost an Oz (have at least 25-50 lbs to lose). We both lost about 100lbs on keto a couple years ago, but have been stalled for past year... we were hoping Carnivore would help get us going again. We were eating a pretty clean version of Keto which helped to 'cure' us of most health issues we were having so can't really say we feel noticeably different on Carnivore vs keto... any tips/suggestions to get the weight to come off?
Usually I have a can of sardines per day. At first I wasn't really big on the concept nor the taste but not only did it grow on me, it's crystal clear to the way my body feels that there's just things in fish that I need nutritionally that I'm not getting in ruminate, land-based, animal meat. Here's the rub though: If you're going to eat sardines? You either know a lot more about what you're buying and consuming than I do or you get them served in water--and eating them straight out of the tin in water is a big psychological hurdle for people who've spent decades eating pretty much no fish. Doubly so because the sardines don't look like a lovingly shaped fillet with little relation to the animal it came from. Oh no, it looks like a practical whole small fish minus the head and tail. And there is very much a spinal cord in it. You'd think the spinal cord of the fish would be tough, hard, and unpleasant to bite into similar to biting into a chicken bone but it's the most bizarre thing if it's your first time: You'll never sink your teeth into a more tender thing. Wouldn't even know you were consuming animal bone if you weren't looking.
Nevertheless, if someone is curious by what I've said, my suggestion is to try Beach Cliff's sardines "in water" out first if for no other reason than the "fishy" taste is very quite mild to the point of being bland. These days I'm more partial to Wild Planet's sardines "in water with sea salt" which definitely have the qualities of "fishy" that I've come to enjoy.
I prefer kippered herring, but I have also gotten used to sardines, and yes, right out of the can. The spine no longer bothers me because I quit trying to cut them with a fork. Just eat them whole and you never know it's there!
iodine!
I love sardines with mustard.
When I was a kid ate eight sardines on crackers. I just can't quite get myself to eat them now. I open up the can and end up giving it to the dog.
Sardines are one of the healthiest meats on the planet.
As a carnivore that is a fisherman I do include it
Live in south Spain. Too many good restaurants around to acorn sea food so I’m glad you said it’s ok. I have avoided the swordfish and high mercury one a and farmed fish for years.
Thank you for clarifying this up for me!!! I love seafood but I am still totally on Carnivore not alot of seafood either!!!
I'm carnivore also but I do eat a stack of cheese and eggs but no veg etc just animal produce mostly steak only each meal.
Me too, mine is ALL meat and butter and some cheese plus eggs and a little sour cream! I am totally healed of Diabetes for REAL! NO LIE! 😊🙂😀
You talked me out of eating fish today when you said lamb 🥩
I do add shrimp and haddock and liver occasionally just to add variety 1 yr carnivore and it's the best year yet ! Carnivore diet heals 😊
I keep various filets in the freezer because some days I'm just not in a beef mood. I rub the fish down with olive oil then a good amount of paprika, black pepper, and salt. Cook in a pan on medium heat for 4 minutes one side and 3 on the other and it comes out good. In the past I've done canned tuna and canned sardines - my skin looked incredible when those were in my diet several days a week, but once I turned off of them I can't seem to get back to them
Black pepper is super inflammatory for me
Pan fry olive oil may not be the best option due to lower smoking point and changing of its properties. Use coconut, avocado, or butter/tallow.
I eat it once in a while. An i can attest, that for me when I do consume it. It gives me this great focus an attention an feel good all around.
I tried sockeye salmon for the first time and felt amazing afterwards total euphoria especially the first time
@@ericwuerl3976 Yea man. It happens. I feel like a lot of us might need some fish in our eating
A common meal for me is .5 lb ribeye with .5 lb salmon. I also eat a lot of smoked salmon as a side. Sashimi is pretty awesome too.
🙂💪I have always wondered if when you cook fish do you ruin the epa/dha, & if supplements would be better?
It adds variety.
I love seafood. Sardines, mackerel, salmon, oysters, mussels, shrimp,... wild and fresh always I can
I crave seafood less now that I eat more meat but still enjoy it occasionally. Mackerel's my favourite so I hope that's one of the better ones!
I wonder if Dr Baker and Bella use the same video editor. Just watched a video of hers and saw a spelling mistake with the 'i' and 'e' in [caffeine] backwards. Saw the same here with the word [protein]. Not complaining, just something I noticed. Thanks for the video!
Nice video without the music or sound x
I love shrimp and I eat it about twice a week. I eat sockeye wild salmon at least once a week and of course tuna. I eat nothing but seafood and stay away from red meat due to my blood pressure. The switch helped me immensely.
Variety is essential for me as a ketovore!
I eat seafood rarely but we go deep sea fishing once a year as a family and what we catch lasts all year. When I’m in the mood for fish it’s nice to know where it came from.
I was eating steak in the morning and then tinned tuna at night but now I'm just beef, beef ,beef every meal and I may add eggs and cheese with my beef occasionally but it's all beef here for every meal every day of the week!! Great format although I do like long info filled vids the most
Deep fry in beef tallow lightly breaded.
Awesome! Another very helpful video. 💖🙏💖 I eat a tin of sardines or a tin of salmon maybe once or twice a month. Prefer my short ribs, eggs, bone broth & marrow and other beef stuff.
🥩🍳🥓💪💖 (Eat Meat, Save The Humans)
Ketovore here and i LOVE seafood. I try to eat raw sushi or cooked fish once a week. Never had an issue even with gas station sushi (don’t recommend).
I eat heaps of fish, wild caught from clean ocean water. I know this because I catch it myself. When I do eat steaks a couple of times a week it makes them taste even better !
I eat a steak, a potato, and a salmon each day. Been doing the same thing for 23 years and healthy as a horse. Also, only GRAIN fed. I do not like the flavor of grass fed, and if you get wild fish they have worms in them - always get farmed, always grain fed. Tastes great and healthy too!
Nothing healthy about farmed fish did you even listen to the video
Thank you. I eat seafood about once a week.
I live in the Pacific Northwest and am not a big fan of salmon,however I visit Florida often and love grouper, amberjack and snapper as well as gulf shrimp. So yes when I am there I eat a lot of seafood at home I stick to beef.
Dang. On complete opposite ends of the country! Lol
I have hemochromatosis, hypocholesteremia, and a genetic predisposition to heart problems, so my near carnivore diet is 80% fish. Why I choose near carnivore is because I wish to maintain a diverse gut biome. So, I need to feed it also. That means high cabbage salads topped with salmon. For doing this, I keep the diseases at bay and genetically switched off.
I consider seafood a side dish.
I’ve started incorporating fisherman’s eggs once a week or so. Tinned sardines, mackerel and salmon in brine with 3 eggs, butter and double cream. It’s amazing.
I have recently included Atlantic Salmon to my diet with shrimp for dinner to add a little variety to my diet.
Most Atlantic salmon is farmed and really toxic. If it isn't wild salmon you would be better off with beef.
When I found out the Chinese are testing rockets in the ocean and oil wells drilled in the ocean and oil spills are getting frequent and other pollutions are constantly occurring, You're right Shawn, I'll stick to beef and land animals.
The longest living people (Japanese) are the biggest seafood consumers.

Hi Dr. Baker. Is there any concern for microplastics in seafood?
If it's good enough for bears, it's good enough for humans.
Bears get into garbage cans on the daily up here in Alaska when they aren’t hibernating. One of their favorite snacks is used diapers. Help yourself.
@@briankeeney9272 Obviously, garbage cans are not a natural item in a wild animal's habitat. Bears could not survive eating only diapers as their main diet. You know that, right?
@@briankeeney9272 what a caveman response lol
@@briankeeney9272
I've seen the indengent pillage dumpsters at a local McDonald's; they also like Chinese fine cuisine.
@@einnor3004 Please elaborate.
On the Gulf Coast there is plenty of seafood.
Unfortunately, most of it is prepared in unhealthy fashion. Breaded in flour and cornmeal and then deep fried in vegetable oil.
Seafood was a big part of our ancestral diet
Hmm, seems like terrestrial ruminant mammals were a bigger part. They have everything we need including Omegas 3 DHA and EPA, which are found in the bone marrow and brains of the terretrial animals
I really like eating good quality seafood tho
There are shell middens, huge piles of mollusk shells from clams, oysters, etc., thousands of years old in places like Florida. Certainly those shellfish have been a big source of food at times.
@@la912 Meat as well but majority camps were set up beside water. Spears, traps, nets are very effective
@@steveo4253 That's a good point
I would love to see a video on common to super supplements. Which ones contains plant sterols (bad) and maybe oxalate, we should take and or avoid
I typically have 1 can of sardines and 1 can of cod livers a week, and maybe once a month will cook a seafood dinner on a Saturday night like pan-seared locally sourced scallops and a wild caught salmon filet because my wife loves seafood. Will get fresh oysters on the shell as an appetizer when we eat out occasionally. I probably would eat more if there were more super fresh locally caught fish around, I certainly do when on vacation in the Caribbean and I can see them taking the fish off the boat!
Cod liver is too high in mercury and too high in fat which might be good or bad if the environmet is toxic just stick with beef liver.
Started last month adding seafood to my routine, I was OMAD for a long time with beef and some times liver only. Then 2 weeks ago I went to 2MAD, in the morning a can of sea food, either wild Salmon and only Grilse 1 day in morning,2nd day 1 can sardines in morning and 3rd day Tuna in morning and all only in water, repeat. Then as usually in late after noon or early evening, steak and maybe liver with it.
I repeat this every day. After 2 months I will just go back to OMAD beef and liver only and I like both very rare, just turned lightly brown om each side. Also starting after the sea food going to fast 1 say a week for awhile, just have a urge to do this for some reason so I will satisfied the itch till I no longer have the itch. Any Who best to all.......
Cheers to all
Love meat as much as anyone love seafood as much as anyone. Why not not have the best of both worlds and all that God provides. Seafood is also a great alternative when you don't want to get weighed down with meat yet still have a satisfying meal.
I don't have a weekly plan or anything like that, but when I'm close to the sea I tend to get 50% seafood and I enjoy it! I'm not really good at preparing it myself - and inland restaurants sometimes aren't much better at it - but seaside it often is the other way around! You get delicious seafood platters crabs different fish grilled or fried in butter with a little garlic maybe..... while the steak in those restaurants sometimes is a disgrace (overcooked lump of "o yes I forgot Joe sixpacks dish in the pan".... not that I condone this attitude ... but that's what you tend to get in Spain and especially France when you order a steak in a fish restaurant!) .... so enjoy what they are good at!!!😁👍
Well normally I don't eat sea food at all. I'm 4 months into my carnivore and I saw a good sale on sockeye salmon to try it out. It didn't really taste good or bad to me But I've had this incredible euphoric feeling after eating it for the first time that I had it for the next three meals also. I think I'm going to try to get salmon in once a week or alternate it with cod liver. But it definitely felt so good that I'm keeping it in my diet
I usually eat seafood on average once a week.
I live seafood! If toxins weren't an issue, I'd eat Seafood the way Shawn Baker eats steak!
Only seafood I eat is wild salmon row.
Farmed salmon is not injected with dye. Carotenoids are added to their diet to make the meat pink/red. However, the source of the carotenoids is sketchy. It might come from ground shrimp shells (good) or be from artificially created carotenoids (sketch).
i keep a daily supply of cans of wild planet sockeye salmon at work & eat with my lunch, & when i dont & skip eating it for a few days, i will wake up at night with hellish severe leg cramps & ill get dry-eye so bad itll impede my vision ...so yeah, im eating wild planet's salmon, mackerel, & sardines, (& occasionally tuna) on a regular basis ...but i eat beef daily as well, including beef liver for breakfast most mornings ...thank u sir
Salmon with sweet baby rays bbq is awesome.
Love seafood. Very helpful to create a better nutritional profile. Can be very beneficial. Some beef, pork, poultry can also be contaminated. For any food, find a quality source. No longer term controlled studies proving "Causation" - good or bad for seafood and / or beef for that matter on cancer, heart disease, autoimmune, longevity....
Cod liver in cod liver oil from Norway, delicious, canned herring, mackerel, once a week or so.
my lunch snack is Mackerel, it makes me poop if I eat it everyday, I do not eat it everyday.
Thank you. You did not mention tuna.
Wild caught fish for the win. The problem is mirco plastics in recent years.
Dr. Baker, how to feel feel about Sea minerals, I believe they come in liquid form. Thank you.
Greetings from the LooseNatural farm in Andalusia Spain
I did fish only for the majority of a year with my carnivore diet, due to a severe intolerance to eggs, dairy, lamb and beef. Felt really good as long as i ate the right amount of fat for my body, not too much, not too little. can one be healthy basing their carnivore diet around seafood long term?
Heavy metals..
@@cor3944 so your opinion is "yes" long as he eats fish without the heavy metals?
@@walkerskii did not eat tuna or big predator fish. Mostly salmon, rainbow trout and sardines. Crab and shrimp every now and then in butter/lard or ghee. Can tolerate those fats
I eat seafood…mostly the fish I catch though, weakfish, striped bass, fluke, porgies, Black Sea bass, and northern king fish. I do eat some tuna, salmon, and mahi-mahi though
Hi - I wanted to share a recipe of something I have been makin'. I'm on an OMAD, carnivore diet with Monday all day fasting! It's a 3 day - "seafood casserole" kind of creation. Consists of a can of Albacore tuna in spring water, a can of sardines - wild caught in water and a vacuum packed large piece of wild caught alaskan salmon (coho or sockeye) from Trader Joes, all cooked on my outside covered grille. I put the salmon on a foil boat out on the covered grille and while its cookin', I make a foil boat platter with about 20" of foil, folded long way in1/2 and then cup up the outer edge (about an inch) to make a boat. After the salmon cooks (about 15 minutes) I scoop it into the mixture. Then scoop in the tuna (after draining water) and the sardines drained (all in a big bowl, smashed up and stirred with a fork) - and stir it up.and break it all up and stir it in. Then I scoop it all into the foil boat and flatten it out and put a couple scoops of beef tallow (fat) on top for oi as well as any salt, spices or any sprinkle you like! Then back in to the grille for about 10 -15 more minutes. But I also make about 6 local free range raw eggs whipped in a bowl and pour it on top and kind of level it out so there is egg on the whole surface. . In 10 minutes, i cut it in 3 with a spatula and I have a 3 day casserole that last me for 3 meals (days)! It only comes to about $5 per day to eat! It's awesome!! (NO FISH TASTE AT ALL!)
Wild Salmon, sardines in water, Mahimahi....now and then...for a treat.
The only time you need to worry about mercury is if you consistently eat large fish such as Tuna. If you eat smaller fish such as Salmon, Sardines, and such, you won’t find any problems in regards to mercury. You probably won't be eating seafood often if you follow the carnivore diet anyway, so there's even less to worry about in that regard.
I use seafood in my carnivore rotation. Beef, pork, seafood. Living in Louisiana I eat only our seafood caught in the Gulf.
I like shell fish here and there with lots of butter. I eat salmon raw, (sashimi) when it’s cooked it taste really dry.
Can you do a video talking about Omega-3s? Of course they are essential , but is the data to suggest cardioprotection, anti inflammation, neuroprotection, longevity, etc only epidemiologic?
Go for the White Fish rather than Pink because Pink has more Vitamin A.
The only seafood we care for are good wild caught sardines. We are mainly beef eaters.
I like canned tuna and eggs on rice with a few slices of tomatoes
Any thoughts on the risks of micro plastics which are in most seafood?
I don't think you need it, but steak and shrimp (surf n turf) is the best thing ever!
