Hi Jesse, I really appreciate your work, thank you. Your ability to remain objective in a tsunami of conflicting information and being able to consistently raise up all the known conflicts to each guest, is second to none. I certainly have learned to question everything that every "qualified expert" has ever said either on or off-line.
for Dr. Elizabeth Bright: What if you are taking Armour Thyoid, can you STILL add LUGOS IODINE and how much. ANOTHER thing: Did you know that Pf!zer has been making RENNET in their LABS and that you can't find any cheese in the USA that hasn't been replaced with what's called VEGETABLE Rennet instead of ANIMAL RENNET The fact that this corporation is tampering with our dairy could be the reason why so many have allergies to it. And if you go on a Carnivore diet, what are the oxalate loads in that vegetable rennet that was made in a lab? Something to think about.
This was a good interview; so many of us need this mineral (mineral?). I've subbed, and look forward to seeing more informative guests. We really need help - in Canada, it's rare to even have a physician, so it's super important to have places to learn. I've always believed food is fuel and medicine. This guest, Dr. Bright, was awesome. Looking forward to more. xx from Nova Scotia
Jess, if you can follow up with her and ask what does she see are the issues with people who haven't taken iodine with their thyroid? Starting at 27 minutes in. thanks!!!
I did the keto diet for a year. Did the fasting. Lost the weight. I learned that the practice of NO SNACKING seemed to be the key. Now I eat 2 meals a day. High protein and fat, fruits, but Sugar and starch minimal. Fasting now means absolutely NO snacks and it has been a success for me.
So I'm a 2 time Cancer survivor and used a Nutritional Keto lifestyle with the chemo treatment and bone marrow transplant to help me recover super fast, deal with the side affects and put my Multiple Myeloma into remission, this was 5 years ago! Iodine was a key component as I am from South Africa where Iodine isn't in our diet at all. I became so passionate about the food part that I decided to study nutrition to help other Cancer patients. Dr. Bright is such an inspiration and I used most of what she has brought up in this interview even on my own patients over the last 5 years. Wonderful interview, thank you so much. Keep this important info coming 😊🤙
My ex mother-in- law who lives on a really bad processed diet and ate at least six times a day came down with bladder cancer which spread to her reproductive organs and her lymph nodes, they said it was metastasized. Anyway they did a 10-hour surgery and removed her bladder and reproductive organs and a couple lymph nodes. I took care of her for a couple weeks in my home after surgery and showed her how to use her ostomy bag. Anyway she went home and they started chemo, when she was with me I could get her to eat maybe 400 calories a day maximum. As soon as she started chemo she completely could not eat for three whole months, she only lasted for two treatments and knew she wouldn't survive it so she stopped, she fasted for 3 months and to her great surprise she went in and had a scan and they said they see no cancer anywhere, that doesn't mean there aren't cells ready to grow if she eats the wrong things but we all have that. Fasting is amazing, I just saw a documentary on UA-cam about it yesterday. Fasting heels everything. I fasted both times I had covid and didn't take any medicine, within 5 days I had zero symptoms. Good luck to you! 🩷
Wow!!! Dr.BRIGHT is here!!!! Love her so much! Awesome!!! Previously vegetarian for 9ys. At some point i felt a bit weird myself somehow rusty squeaky and I found her saying good fat is good for women. It's been 6months consuming animal fats like butter and tallow. Now my joint pain's gone my period is peaceful no cramping no pain killers at all! I think my thyroid also got better. Gonna get blood test soon! Appreciate all of your work Jesse!!👍
@MrJohnson57 yeah~ that means I'm now carnivoreish ;) just got out from my own well 👻 and butter has much less lactose(ghee even better) so I can survive
Yes! I've found the same. In perimenopause here and my hypothyroidism has improved plus no period pain (when I have one). I also feel less tired. I have wondered if this is more to do with getting rid of junk food but hey there are benefits either way x
I ve started iodine again and find after about a week of taking it it gives me a feeling of been breathless where I can’t take a deep breath or yawn It’s been the same with my hisband also So I m gonna try just I drop instead of 3 and see if it’s better
@@joanneroundhill1796the feeling of being breathless was what finally led to my hypothyroidism diagnosis (and I have hashimotos)... I now rslise I'd had symptoms for years... I was vegetarian since teens, high performance, long distance runner, VO2 Olympic level fitness and it all came crashing down - suddenly I couldn't get out of bed but it still took 10 years for a diagnosis...
@@joanneroundhill1796 Wow! I had trouble getting a deep breath a few weeks ago and now that I think about it it’s probably about the same time that I increased my iodine(after Being out of it for a week or so) from 2 drops to 4. It did get better without me reducing the drops.
My mom couldn't nurse me and I could not tolerate store bought milk - canned, fresh, etc. She finally tried milk from a dairy - and I quit crying and they no longer had to walk the floors all night with me. She did not know that the Black Belt cows had A2 milk - she was just convinced that i could not tolerate homogenized milk. Since then I've found that goat milk is A2 - something for moms to try - if their infants cannot tolerate regular cows milk.
If the milk came directly from the dairy was it raw (unpasteurised) as that, along with A2 protein, makes a big difference to its digestability. Raw milk contains lactase which helps our bodies digest lactose, but lactase is destroyed in pasteurisation.
@@sookibeulah9331 The milk came directly from the White Belt Dairy cows which are A-2 - but, it was pasteurized. Apparently I could tolerate the A-2 stuff - and my parents got some sleep.
🥰 Thank you Jesse for hosting Dr. Bright! 🙌 Dr. Bright’s kindness in sharing her wisdom helped me heal my hypothyroidism with Iodine! I’d previously taken Synthroid since 1991; no more pharmaceuticals for me, thanks to Dr. Elizabeth Bright!❤️🔥😘
How did iodine heal your thyroid? I take high dose of Armor everyday. Would love to cure it. I am almost 80 and take no other meds. Afraid I would die with out it! Tell me what to do. Insurance will not cover Armour - expensive!
My wife is still on that,but i want to get her off of all those pills. Levothyroxine,i believe is same as synthroid. Shed been on it for years,and it hasnt done anything to help her.
This is one of the best interviews I've seen with Dr Bright! Thank you Jesse for asking SO many necessary and valuable questions. I've been recovering from adrenal exhaustion and thyroidissues, and eating animal fats, eliminating caffeine and fasting, and staying Ketovore have been the best healing pratices I've used. All because I read Dr Bright's books and been following her for years. Thank you again and again!
@@JesseChappusYou always ask the most relevant questions for your audience who want to know the answers. And you do not interrupt your guest repeatedly. Jesse, you are my favorite nutritional Podcaster. ❤❤❤❤
Dr. Bright was a great guest. Thank Jesse for having her. You always ask the nitty gritty questions that I can't think of but want to know. Excellent interview! I learned so much! Thank you! ❤
I live in Nova Scotia, and buy a local dried seaweed, "dulse". It's a traditional snack, which has been lost in the past 75 years of industrialization. I still recalled my mother chewing on dulse back in the 60s, and to my surprise, it is once again, harvested, dried, and sold in the local supplement store. It's also available on amazon, for those who may want to use a bioavailable source. Thank you, Dr. Bright! This is SO important. xx from Canada
Amazing interview. Both of you. Great?s and answers. I’m 73 and always trying to focus on improving my health. These sessions educate me. I left school at 16, believed I should eat low fat and survived; however constantly depressed. A million thanks to you all. 🙏
She certainly knows more than me, but I just can't agree with her dislike of fasting. I've done intermittent fasting for about 3 years. I don't eat until 2 or 3 pm, and I eat again around 7. If I ate fat in the morning as she suggested, I know my body and I would be starving in a few hours after eating in the morning. What I like about fasting is the autophagy that takes place. I don't fast long enough to get into a good autophagy, but at least I'm getting some. I wish I could fast 24 hrs at least one day a week, but my body just fights me on that. If I wanted to be miserable I could do it, but I don't want to put myself through that.
She eats butter in the morning which does not break your fast. Then she eats a steak at lunch. So she’s technically doing intermittent fasting even though she’s eating butter. Butter will not spike your insulin which means you’re still in a fasted state.
I agree. I do Omad and I finally have a great apetite. If I eat twice per day, heart burn and digestive issues come back and apetite isn't there. But I did start to notice hunger pangs throughout the day recently. So I'm following her advice for that, I'm doing the fatty coffee in the morning with 2 tbsp of butter. I feel better. My extremities are warmer. I feel less anxious. More stable. She's partially right on that. You need fat for hormone production and to keep cortisol down.

If your body fights you on it its because it doesn't want it. Listen to the body instead of doing what your mind thinks is the best thing. How would you know that it would be beneficial if it was that hard to do?
Good point. Though autophagy works best after at least 24 hrs of not eating, my body fights going that long, I need to just listen to my body. I can easily not eat until 2 or 3 pm every day and sometimes 4 or 5 pm, and my body is fine with that. I'll stick with that instead of trying to go a lot longer (which I haven't done because it's too hard). She talked about fasting putting stress on your body. The intermittent fasting I've done for a few years doesn't bother me at all, but trying to fast longer is definitely stressing my body, so I'm going to stop that. The good thing about the fasting I do is that while I always check the carbs on food, I never check the calories like I used to. I don't gain any weight.
Jesse, thanks for your work. You have the most brilliant way of asking just the right concise questions to lead your professional guests to all their most pertinent information for your listeners. Very refreshing after listening to so many interviewers who can't help themselves strutting their stuff. That can be very frustrating. You are brilliant my friend!!
I initially laughed at her comment likening A1 cow milk to Heroin…but then I thought she may very well be right. I have one heck of a full fat Greek Yoghurt addiction…and I’m not exaggerating!
I believe you! I tried some plain greek yoghurt with no additives and kept going back for more until I'd eaten the entire 1Kg tub of it! 😮 Now I just can't have it in the house at all...casomorphines are seriously addictive! Especially when you're carnivore and that previously sour yoghurt tastes sooooo sweet, like ice cream!
I feel sorry if you can't handle A1 milk ...that A2 tastes terrible...been carnivore for 5.5 years; raw cheese, raw butter, very fresh full fat raw milk & cream, make my own yogurt...love it ...not addicted, consume small amounts, no craving, no probkem, but I had no significant problems & doing great ...eat for taste A1 is the star
@@juliametcalf2660 Thanks. Maybe I’m catastrophising, no thanks to these videos. Maybe I just happen to love full fat Greek Yoghurt! Maybe I should “carry on regardless”! I’m English & I’ve tasted Guernsey Cow milk when on holiday on the Island of Guernsey…and that is apparently A2 milk (which I never knew until recently) and it was absolutely delicious!
@@stevelanghorn1407 I do eat yogurt everyday, not addiction; it's just a different texture & flavor in my what by choice is a rather restrictive diet. Eating more for function than entertainment these days ...& getting so much more done!
With the many interviews I've heard over my lifetime, I can say you are one of the best interviewers that I have listened to. Great job. Thank you for this UA-cam video. I love Dr. Bright.
Ah, the nod to Dr. Jorge Flechas! He was the integrative doctor that got me on the path to wellness. Broke my heart when he retired. He started me on Hakala labs iodine and boron supplements. Forever grateful.
We are pretty close to the 300K subscribers wow / let's help Jesse by sharing this episode and other videos as much as possible, he deserve it. Thanks all
Dairy is very inflammatory for me. I've always handled it well in terms of not being lactose intolerant, so I thought it was fine for me. When I started ketovore and eliminated dairy (especially full fat Greek yogurt without any added sugar), my chronic sinusitis for years improved by about 80%, and my joint pain went away completely.
I do agree. I can't do dairy either, except butter and ghee. I have severe chronic sinusitis with polyps. I can finally breathe and sleep on high fat carnivore.
You ask great questions Jesse! I handled my thyroid with iodine (from my chiropractor/master herbalist) for years. But since seeing regular and NP doctors the past 10 years- who advised against it due to Hashimotos - I've gone downhill physically on prescription meds and never once taken an iodine panel to see what's happening there. And my T3 is in the bottom of the range. Hearing Dr Bright has encouraged me to take iodine daily again. Thank you!
Thank you @jessecampus! A thought-provoking interview. You asked really helpful questions! I appreciate your humble interviewing style, giving space for your guest to share rather than trying to validate your own perspectives. Because of this, I just subscribed! 😁 Much to think about … above all else, the theme seems that being more parasympathetic dominant is a key to reclaiming health, and eating enough fat can help with this. 😁
11:03 Dr. Bright " if you still have pain, you still have arthritis, you still have eczema, you still have psoriasis I would take out Dairy." Wow, " I would take out Dairy."
14:51 "The point of it is that you don't want it to be bleached. You don't want it to be iodized, because it's crap. The iodine they put in the iodize salt ,the Morton salt, is horrible, and it's bleached so it's not an electrolyte anymore. The magnesium chloride the potassium chloride those things that are electrolytes have been removed. They have been eliminated so that is not healthy salt." Wow! iodized Morton Salt it is crap.
Bart Kay advises against changing your diet to Carnivore without easing into it over several weeks' time. He says you have to give the microbiome time to adjust. It also takes time for people to adapt to running on just fat.
@lindabirmingham603 Neither Kay or Bright have all the answers. I worked my way into full high fat carnivore over 3 months, after years of paleo-keto. Over the next 3 months, my digestion totally shut down. Turns out meat isn't digested well in a poorly functioning digestive system. It doesn't matter how much fat is added. These people will end up doing similar harm as the standard practitioners they aim to replace.
Unfortunately, Dr William Davis discusses " iodine toxicity and that iodine destroys the microbiome". I believe Dr Bright is correct.l, so is Dr Brownstein. We need the iodine. I use it and I give it to my dogs also, I've most likely been iodine deficient my entire life; now, hypothyroid, but iodine helps, along with thyroid meds
Love Dr.Bright 💓🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟..... Her wealth of knowledge is a blessing 🙌 & has helped me sooo much.... I live the carnivore lifestyle for my hashimoto's thyroiditis. Its a game Changer & my symptoms have greatly improved ... For those out there , who say it is sooo restrictive...you're right - it is .....yet, what is more restrictive is - having zero Energy, pain all over, foggy mind , mood issues , feeling bloated etc .......not feeling good at all ..... I know my body is still healing.....( as at one point, l had NO thyroid function )..... I've been strict for over a year now...& wow what a difference l feel .... I give my Thanks to - DR. ELIZABETH BRIGHT 🌞. ........ I Salute her 👏 .... l also follow Dr. KEN BERRY too. Kisses from lreland ☘️ 🍃☘️💋💫🌟🙌🌞💎
I listen to your podcast relatively often and i listen to many podcasts from all over the world (live in Greece, speak many languages). I d like to let you know that in my opinion you re one of the best podcasters that i know. Thanks. Stay healthy and good at what you re doing! Greetings from Greece!
Thanks. I'm trying to get rid of all carbohydrates completely, including coffee. Even the small daily amount of carbohydrates in coffee is enough to keep the harmful Clostridium spore bacteria alive. In a strict carnivore, they die off in about two years.
This is so crazy. You have doctors telling you to eat food in an order, doctors telling you to fast. Doctors telling you to just eat meat. Doctors telling you to just eat vegetables. Tired of it! Exercise, destress, eat real whole foods.
Great interview! Interesting lady. Thank you Dr. Bright. Jesse you are amazing. The questions you ask and the knowledge you have to have about the person you're interviewing is impressive. Keep up the great work, it's so appreciated.
She is right on the animal fat point. There is a reason that veganism was never a thing in the vegetarian capital of the world, India. Ghee, from healthy cows fed a correct diet, is essential for human health if one is a Hindu-like vegetarian. An entire culture and continent raised this one food item to level of the divine with the backing of states, kingdoms, temples, and Ayurvedic doctors for thousands of years. Sadly because of adulteration of foods and destruction of soil health, a healthy vegetarian diet without the aid of supplements is becoming increasingly difficult. Similarly grain fed meats and toxic seafood have their own health problems.
I am doing intermitent fasting (14 hours without food, only water) and I am not eating anything after 6 pm. I have already eliminated 10kg. I am going to work by bycicle early im the morning no matter what weather I have here in Germany. I am taking some vitamins and supplements and eating all I love and lots of proteins, too. I feel much better than a year ago, or months ago, have more energy and less tired. I sleep like a rock and I stand up at 5.45. Get ready for a new day and at 9.00 pm. I go to my bed. I also do all my chores home (cleaning, cooking, as any other housekeeper does daily) and I go for shopping by bike too. I can tell you that fasting is the best thing for me as I have done it before, and I will continue living like that. It works for me perfectly. I also take Iodine, Omega 3, Vitamins and Iron, daily. If it works for me doesn't mean it will work for you too but, if you try it, what do you have to lose?
I think raw milk is inportant because it has lactase which digests the lactose. I don’t drink much raw milk; it’s simply a treat once in a while, but it’s a huge difference in taste and how it makes me feel.
This was an awesome interview, thank you Jesse. I am a firm believer in one to five day fasting to emulate our ancestral way of eating/hunting especially when it comes to autophagy. I wish I knew what Dr. Bright viewpoint are on autophagy. this is the only area that I disagree with Dr. Bright is when it comes to intermittent fasting and autophagy as she feels it raises, cortisol too high, which I understand but when we were hunters, we had no choice to intermittently fast when hunting for a kill. There’s gotta be a way to reboot the system when it comes to eliminating the old used mitochondria at the cellular level and create new mitochondria and autophagy is the only way I’m aware of.
I agree with you on fasting. I think it can benefit in a way that eating, even if it’s only meat, can’t. BUT there are other ways to get autophagy without fasting. A couple ways include intense exercise and hot and cold therapy.
On high fat carnivore, I get 7.8 ketones after 16 hours so I don't really fast. I just wait until my hungry and I get into autophagy. That's why I love carnivore. It's like a cheat code. "Fasting" without actually fasting.
@@mj625 I've had massive cellular repairs without fasting. I was so sick and now everything is better and I look like a legit athlete with no training. Carnivore is pretty good on its own. I would see why you'd wanna fast for cancer or epilepsy though.
My father grew up in the Appalachian Mountains as so did I. But his family were farmers and his mother cooked 3 meals a day.. Had a garden, etc. His mother and father lived to 96 and 97. He just passed away at 95 in 2023. My grandparents never had a vaccination as only went to the doctor if they needed one.. Not monthly. They had chickens, pigs, Cows and a garden. My grandfather ground cornmeal from his corn and the community would bring corn for him to ground for them. My father would not eat chicken because he did some grading work at a chickens farm down the road. He saw who they were fed and how they lived. It truly made a bad impression on him. And have wouldn't eat mushrooms because he saw where there grew too. Cow patties. He died from CLL after he had one flu vaccine and had been bitten by a tic twice. Both times he had the big red bullet mark. He received the antibiotics but he still got CLL. I believe he had the leukemia over the years because he had blood leakage years earlier all from leaky gut. What causes leaky gut? Grains..and oxalate vegetables. He also had his gallbladder removed too. But he drank buttermilk all cornbread. His gut issues arrived after the 70's. We also have O+ blood. Moral of the story.. Don't eat grains again vegetables, night shades, oxalates and only eat meat. My grandmother put iodine on our cuts and skinned places. She also made my sisters and I take SSS tonic. I wonder what was in that..
@@cynthiashores57 very true.. and calcium and vitamin C. Vitamin C helps absorb iron from foods and calcium can leak into your blood causing calcification.
@@cynthiashores57 true. My father has CLL and had to take iron with vitamin C which helps with absorption. Most people don’t have that.. And he lost blood through his intestinal tract. From leaky gut..
What makes you lose weight is maintaining and restoring your equilibrium 👌🏼 getting out of a stress state relaxes the parasympathetic nervous system to rest & digest 😅 high cortisol is kryptonite 💯
It's so sad , that the first thing people cut out with any condition is fat and meat . I know of a lot of diabetics who cut those things out but still eat all the carbs. I'm hoping and praying that Healthcare professionals including dietitians will start researching and promoting and sharing with their patients these types of options. Only 10 years ago Healthcare professionals were still pushing ice cream for cancer patients and they are still pushing plants and fiber for people who have GI issues. Thank you to the doctors who are courageously sharing information that heals.
I remember a time when you could buy iodine in the local pharmacy and we used it a lot as a family. Now, it’s hard to find and expensive. I wonder why.
She briefly discussed good sleep habits. I actually hadnt heard much of that before. I go to sleep around 8 or 9, usually when the sun goes down, and get up about 4. Not sure what is wrong with that. Also, exercise at night may not be so bad if it is more structural exercise, for health, rather than fitness. I would lkke to hear more of her on this.
No meat since 1976- vegan 13 yrs. Cholesterol 279- hdl 100- triglycerides 60. Blood pressure 107/68. Super fit with excellent muscle mass for a 67yr old senior- same weight as my twenties. Been eating fresh natto for 6?yrs and sea moss daily. I’m absolutely thriving without animal products for decades!!
She is on point with everything except the fasting. That’s a no brainer and both anecdotal and scientific experience show it’s effectiveness. Ayurveda with its 5000 years of proven results expounds the value of fasting.
Completely with you. Fasting is natural - as we hunted, we often had to go without for a while. Exactly how long I don’t know. Lions only catch a prey once in about 5 days, if I’m not mistaken. Eating completely regularly is unnatural. And then, autophagy etc. There is such a thing as beneficial stress, hormesis. I think she’s got this wrong.
Agreed. But she did say 2 days max of fasting so she is not saying don't fast, I agree with her in that aspect. Intermittent fasting and a dry fast for a day i believe is sufficient esp if you are practising IF everyday. 6-18 hrs.

@@i.ehrenfest349 Fasting on purpose isn't natural. Our ancestors didn't have a choice. You are looking at 2 different scenarios and calling them the same thing. Eat when you are hungry. Listen to your body and your instincts, not the 'mind', that has been brainwashed by society.
Very interesting. I eat fatty pork, bacon & eggs for breakfast and beef & eggs for tea which is 8 hours apart. I do drink raw milk and that's about it. Amazingly healthy for 65, 5'10" & 164lbs this morning. I also snack occasionally on home made jerky with butter. Also make pemican which contains some seasonal fruit.
Iodine is burned up rapidly especially when someone is I'll. The breasts and ovaries store Iodine. Cysts are an indication of deficiency. ❤ I use Lugols 5% every day in my coffee.
I thrive on grassfed pasture raised ruminants. I’ve seen a chicken eat a frog! I don’t enjoy eating birds of any kind. Love scallops, caviar, fish roe and cod liver!
I have read decaf coffee is related to getting Parkinson’s and related disease. It’s the chemical processing that is the problem and water processed decaf is the safest to get. Is this true?
Great insight on iodine. my 4 year old daughter has 3 drops that contains 337 mg of potassium iodide 3 times a week. I eat 15 to 20 squares of Japanese made nori seaweed daily.
I love listening to Dr Bright. I've changed from butter to ghee, not sure if there is any benefit but who knows, might aid in balance and weight loss. I do make my own bone broth from beef feet. I've tried sardines but just gag on them. Now trying ground lamb. I saw online recently that Redmond salt is very high in lead and arsenic per 3rd party labs. Should we be stopping that?
Lead is an element. You can't get away from it. There's lead in all soil and salt, and plants, tea, coffee, its in all your dinnerware. It's in paint and varnish. It's in the walls of your home. Everybody is eating redmond salt without issues for years and years. I think if you're healthy, if you're especially carnivore, the body will not have to spend its time detoxing grains and beans and all that other junk, so the body finally has a chance to focus on other toxins. I wouldn't worry.

She warns against ground meat. Eat it in its natural state. Also try Celtic sea salt. Might be better.
Thanks for asking about how to take iodine. Crows has no directions, so I've just tested it on my skin to see how fast it absorbs. I heard that wasn't a good test, but I was afraid to take it orally since the bottle gives no directions- so I thought orally must be dangerous. I got my answer on this show. Thank you!
My wife has been a vegetarian for years and has really high cholesterol. On your take, she should be devoid of cholesterol. Can you please explain how she is like this?
She doesn't eat enough fat so her body is making more. That's what I was told about my elevated cholesterol. She needs to walk everyday and eat healthy fats
"We didn't evolve to have a tiger jump back through the door~ hey I'm back to scare you, since you're better!"~ Now there's some common sense. Let's be strong, be active & challenge ourselves appropriately, yet also be good to ourselves~ be smart about it. There's a lot to be said for peace & calm~ unless you already live in a utopic bubble, of course. *Love Fred Hahn's "slow burn" weight/strength training method. It's also virtually stress & injury free. Very protective of all the other work I'm doing to heal & sustain my good health efforts, especially stress.
Dietary cholesterol contributes to only a small portion of your overall blood cholesterol. While it was once thought to be a major factor, recent research has shown that your body's own production of cholesterol plays a much more significant role
whole cultures have survived and thrived eating mainly vegetable proteins, drinking milk or fermented milk and eating fermented veggies - they did this by learning how to prep their food properly and of course no junk food. And yes their are those who live on a mainly carnivore diet and do well to. So you just need to listen to your body, eat what your ancestors ate and you should be fine
what I do not understand is that she states we should not eat sugar, plants and carbs because we would not do so back in the day before our food system was created with abundance. Then she states that we should not fast because it is not healthy but back in the day we would not be able to eat every day all day. So do we connect with our former diet and lifestyle or do we just cherry pick? Just asking. Also when we would hunt it would be a marathon at times because we could not be successful at hunting 100 percent of the time. We actually evolved a very specific mechanism for running long distance which is perspiration.
13 днів тому+2
Yes, but fasting and marathon sprints were done for survival and not by choice and not on purpose. That is the difference. If you are talking about what is natural, forcing yourself to do those things is unnatural. Eat when you're hungry. You shouldn't have much of an appetite on carnivore anyway.
Due to our modern lifestyles we would never fast nor run a marathon unless we choose to. Just because we do not have to does not mean that we should not especially since we have only been living in abundance for only a fraction of our historical footprint. If you were on an unsuccessful hunt would you not have to force yourself to run a marathon? If you were unsuccessful for days would that not be considered fasting? We have the biological mechanisms to withstand these stresses. When not used you become soft.
To compare dairy and heroine is a little crazy. It's in no way a similar addition. Your coffee is much more addictive than dairy and not to mention it raises cortisol/anxiety more than fasting
She talks about how we evolved hunting but then goes on to say she doesn’t believe in fasting. However, as I eat a plate of bacon right out of the refrigerator, can I assume our ancestors did not have refrigeration and went days without eating? Apparently we are one of the few species that goes without eating for days.

Hi Jesse, I really appreciate your work, thank you. Your ability to remain objective in a tsunami of conflicting information and being able to consistently raise up all the known conflicts to each guest, is second to none. I certainly have learned to question everything that every "qualified expert" has ever said either on or off-line.
for Dr. Elizabeth Bright: What if you are taking Armour Thyoid, can you STILL add LUGOS IODINE and how much. ANOTHER thing: Did you know that Pf!zer has been making RENNET in their LABS and that you can't find any cheese in the USA that hasn't been replaced with what's called VEGETABLE Rennet instead of ANIMAL RENNET The fact that this corporation is tampering with our dairy could be the reason why so many have allergies to it. And if you go on a Carnivore diet, what are the oxalate loads in that vegetable rennet that was made in a lab? Something to think about.
This was a good interview; so many of us need this mineral (mineral?). I've subbed, and look forward to seeing more informative guests.

Jess, if you can follow up with her and ask what does she see are the issues with people who haven't taken iodine with their thyroid? Starting at 27 minutes in. thanks!!!
I did the keto diet for a year. Did the fasting. Lost the weight. I learned that the practice of NO SNACKING seemed to be the key.
Now I eat 2 meals a day. High protein and fat, fruits, but Sugar and starch minimal. Fasting now means absolutely NO snacks and it has been a success for me.
She said she snacks.
She does only on carnivore snacks.@@krzykris
I think you hit the nail on the head, snacks are a huge issue. Admire your success. I'm still working on it.
we should be together
Jesse is the best interviewer on UA-cam. He can get important details out of experts.
💙💙💙
Totally agree he is!
Yes, he is but that's also because he's a good listener. 😊
My Thoughts Exactly. I love Jesse's style: very warm, always calm, great voice, and very sharp and focused, with good concise questions.
Just my sentiments exactly!!!
So I'm a 2 time Cancer survivor and used a Nutritional Keto lifestyle with the chemo treatment and bone marrow transplant to help me recover super fast, deal with the side affects and put my Multiple Myeloma into remission, this was 5 years ago! Iodine was a key component as I am from South Africa where Iodine isn't in our diet at all.
I became so passionate about the food part that I decided to study nutrition to help other Cancer patients. Dr. Bright is such an inspiration and I used most of what she has brought up in this interview even on my own patients over the last 5 years.
Wonderful interview, thank you so much.
Keep this important info coming 😊🤙
My ex mother-in- law who lives on a really bad processed diet and ate at least six times a day came down with bladder cancer which spread to her reproductive organs and her lymph nodes, they said it was metastasized. Anyway they did a 10-hour surgery and removed her bladder and reproductive organs and a couple lymph nodes. I took care of her for a couple weeks in my home after surgery and showed her how to use her ostomy bag. Anyway she went home and they started chemo, when she was with me I could get her to eat maybe 400 calories a day maximum. As soon as she started chemo she completely could not eat for three whole months, she only lasted for two treatments and knew she wouldn't survive it so she stopped, she fasted for 3 months and to her great surprise she went in and had a scan and they said they see no cancer anywhere, that doesn't mean there aren't cells ready to grow if she eats the wrong things but we all have that. Fasting is amazing, I just saw a documentary on UA-cam about it yesterday. Fasting heels everything. I fasted both times I had covid and didn't take any medicine, within 5 days I had zero symptoms. Good luck to you! 🩷
Wow!!! Dr.BRIGHT is here!!!! Love her so much! Awesome!!! Previously vegetarian for 9ys. At some point i felt a bit weird myself somehow rusty squeaky and I found her saying good fat is good for women. It's been 6months consuming animal fats like butter and tallow. Now my joint pain's gone my period is peaceful no cramping no pain killers at all! I think my thyroid also got better. Gonna get blood test soon! Appreciate all of your work Jesse!!👍
But isn’t butter dairy?
@MrJohnson57 yeah~ that means I'm now carnivoreish ;) just got out from my own well 👻 and butter has much less lactose(ghee even better) so I can survive
Yes! I've found the same. In perimenopause here and my hypothyroidism has improved plus no period pain (when I have one). I also feel less tired. I have wondered if this is more to do with getting rid of junk food but hey there are benefits either way x
@@HelplessHawk both of course! removing toxins and adding the nutrients
@@dtduagksTkakrnl3768Butter IS an animal product, and therefore a carnivore food.
Fantastic interview. She's spot on with iodine. 55yr female post menopause and iodine has definitely helped me.
my physician put me on 2% Lugols 4 drops twice a day. It's been 2 years. I don't know if it's done anything but I'm still taking it.
I ve started iodine again and find after about a week of taking it it gives me a feeling of been breathless where I can’t take a deep breath or yawn
It’s been the same with my hisband also
So I m gonna try just I drop instead of 3 and see if it’s better
@@joanneroundhill1796the feeling of being breathless was what finally led to my hypothyroidism diagnosis (and I have hashimotos)... I now rslise I'd had symptoms for years... I was vegetarian since teens, high performance, long distance runner, VO2 Olympic level fitness and it all came crashing down - suddenly I couldn't get out of bed but it still took 10 years for a diagnosis...
@@joanneroundhill1796 Wow! I had trouble getting a deep breath a few weeks ago and now that I think about it it’s probably about the same time that I increased my iodine(after
Being out of it for a week or so) from 2 drops to 4. It did get better without me reducing the drops.
Thank you, Jesse.
I have listened to Dr. Elizabeth Bright for years, and never get bored of her. She's a gift to humanity ❤
Well said. 👏🏻
My mom couldn't nurse me and I could not tolerate store bought milk - canned, fresh, etc. She finally tried milk from a dairy - and I quit crying and they no longer had to walk the floors all night with me. She did not know that the Black Belt cows had A2 milk - she was just convinced that i could not tolerate homogenized milk. Since then I've found that goat milk is A2 - something for moms to try - if their infants cannot tolerate regular cows milk.
That’s what I had to have as an infant, but today i cannot stand goat cheese- absolutely nauseating 😅🤮
Ive been told that Goats milk is closer to human milk.
Had the same issue as a child my mom couldn’t nurse me I was raised on goats milk. Fortunately I’m a Capricorn and it agreed with me very well.
If the milk came directly from the dairy was it raw (unpasteurised) as that, along with A2 protein, makes a big difference to its digestability.
Raw milk contains lactase which helps our bodies digest lactose, but lactase is destroyed in pasteurisation.
@@sookibeulah9331 The milk came directly from the White Belt Dairy cows which are A-2 - but, it was pasteurized. Apparently I could tolerate the A-2 stuff - and my parents got some sleep.
🥰 Thank you Jesse for hosting Dr. Bright! 🙌
Dr. Bright’s kindness in sharing her wisdom helped me heal my hypothyroidism with Iodine!
I’d previously taken Synthroid since 1991; no more pharmaceuticals for me, thanks to Dr. Elizabeth Bright!❤️🔥😘
💙💙💙
How did iodine heal your thyroid? I take high dose of Armor everyday. Would love to cure it. I am almost 80 and take no other meds. Afraid I would die with out it! Tell me what to do. Insurance will not cover Armour - expensive!
Can you please share how you heal your thyroids ? Like what did you take or did to heal. Please tell me specifically what you ate etc.
My wife is still on that,but i want to get her off of all those pills. Levothyroxine,i believe is same as synthroid. Shed been on it for years,and it hasnt done anything to help her.
I see that i can buy Redmond salt locally. Thank you.
No, no one ever needs sugar. There's a man who ran five marathons five days in a row completely fasted. Sugar is never a necessity.
You might need carbs and fruit though to feed the brain a fast supply of glucose if you have brain damage though.
@@jasminebarratt1809 Okay, by it how rate is that? All these statements are generalities, as there's always an outlier.
@@bradtozier6776 Ok fair enough just saying. Also brain damage is not that rare, you can get brain damage from stress.
It’s unreal how much our inflammation is diet related.
It started with margarine and then processed seed oils such as Canola. Commercialized fats & oils are highly inflammatory
@@casperinsight3524 Also when Crisco was adopted by fast food restaurants.
This is one of the best interviews I've seen with Dr Bright! Thank you Jesse for asking SO many necessary and valuable questions. I've been recovering from adrenal exhaustion and thyroidissues, and eating animal fats, eliminating caffeine and fasting, and staying Ketovore have been the best healing pratices I've used. All because I read Dr Bright's books and been following her for years. Thank you again and again!
Thank you!!! 💙
@@JesseChappusYou always ask the most relevant questions for your audience who want to know the answers. And you do not interrupt your guest repeatedly. Jesse, you are my favorite nutritional Podcaster. ❤❤❤❤
Appreciate interviewer asking relevant questions in a supportive relaxed converstaional way 👌🏼 well done
Dr. Bright - another royal class nutritionist. I've learned a lot from her.
Dr. Bright was a great guest. Thank Jesse for having her. You always ask the nitty gritty questions that I can't think of but want to know. Excellent interview! I learned so much! Thank you! ❤
Thank you so much! 💙
Dr Bright is straight to the POINT OF RIGHT! She is so the TRUTH! Don't try to get her to give in to the WRONG. Love the right always!
I followed Ken Berry’s beef, butter, bacon and eggs.worked for me.🤷🏻♂️
Dr. Bright literally & figuratively👌🏼😎
She walks her talk and shares interesting substaniated advice to improve womens health ❣️
Dr. Bright is a fantastic woman! Dear doctor, thank you for helping us with you knowledge and wisdom, and Jesse-thank you too !
I live in Nova Scotia, and buy a local dried seaweed, "dulse". It's a traditional snack, which has been lost in the past 75 years of industrialization. I still recalled my mother chewing on dulse back in the 60s, and to my surprise, it is once again, harvested, dried, and sold in the local supplement store. It's also available on amazon, for those who may want to use a bioavailable source. Thank you, Dr. Bright! This is SO important. xx from Canada
It's delicious for sure but I wish it wasn't so expensive..
Its been tested and full of heavy metals and microplastics.its there in nature to absorb toxins..its not safe to consume in modern times
Amazing interview. Both of you. Great?s and answers.
I’m 73 and always trying to focus on improving my health.
These sessions educate me. I left school at 16, believed I should eat low fat and survived; however constantly depressed.
A million thanks to you all. 🙏
The brain needs fat! As well as all our hormones, so a low cat diet may be contributing to your depression. Fat doesn't make you fat sugar does.
She certainly knows more than me, but I just can't agree with her dislike of fasting. I've done intermittent fasting for about 3 years. I don't eat until 2 or 3 pm, and I eat again around 7. If I ate fat in the morning as she suggested, I know my body and I would be starving in a few hours after eating in the morning. What I like about fasting is the autophagy that takes place. I don't fast long enough to get into a good autophagy, but at least I'm getting some. I wish I could fast 24 hrs at least one day a week, but my body just fights me on that. If I wanted to be miserable I could do it, but I don't want to put myself through that.
She eats butter in the morning which does not break your fast. Then she eats a steak at lunch. So she’s technically doing intermittent fasting even though she’s eating butter. Butter will not spike your insulin which means you’re still in a fasted state.
I agree. I do Omad and I finally have a great apetite. If I eat twice per day, heart burn and digestive issues come back and apetite isn't there. But I did start to notice hunger pangs throughout the day recently. So I'm following her advice for that, I'm doing the fatty coffee in the morning with 2 tbsp of butter. I feel better. My extremities are warmer. I feel less anxious. More stable. She's partially right on that. You need fat for hormone production and to keep cortisol down.
If your body fights you on it its because it doesn't want it.
Listen to the body instead of doing what your mind thinks is the best thing.
How would you know that it would be beneficial if it was that hard to do?
Good point. Though autophagy works best after at least 24 hrs of not eating, my body fights going that long, I need to just listen to my body. I can easily not eat until 2 or 3 pm every day and sometimes 4 or 5 pm, and my body is fine with that. I'll stick with that instead of trying to go a lot longer (which I haven't done because it's too hard). She talked about fasting putting stress on your body. The intermittent fasting I've done for a few years doesn't bother me at all, but trying to fast longer is definitely stressing my body, so I'm going to stop that. The good thing about the fasting I do is that while I always check the carbs on food, I never check the calories like I used to. I don't gain any weight.
@@PanSearedRibeye68 Thanks for that info about butter not breaking your fast. I never knew that.
Jesse, thanks for your work. You have the most brilliant way of asking just the right concise questions to lead your professional guests to all their most pertinent information for your listeners. Very refreshing after listening to so many interviewers who can't help themselves strutting their stuff. That can be very frustrating. You are brilliant my friend!!
My first time listening to Dr Bright 👌So easy to understand!
Thank you Jesse !
I initially laughed at her comment likening A1 cow milk to Heroin…but then I thought she may very well be right. I have one heck of a full fat Greek Yoghurt addiction…and I’m not exaggerating!
I believe you! I tried some plain greek yoghurt with no additives and kept going back for more until I'd eaten the entire 1Kg tub of it! 😮 Now I just can't have it in the house at all...casomorphines are seriously addictive! Especially when you're carnivore and that previously sour yoghurt tastes sooooo sweet, like ice cream!
I feel sorry if you can't handle A1 milk ...that A2 tastes terrible...been carnivore for 5.5 years; raw cheese, raw butter, very fresh full fat raw milk & cream, make my own yogurt...love it ...not addicted, consume small amounts, no craving, no probkem, but I had no significant problems & doing great ...eat for taste A1 is the star
@@juliametcalf2660 Thanks. Maybe I’m catastrophising, no thanks to these videos. Maybe I just happen to love full fat Greek Yoghurt! Maybe I should “carry on regardless”! I’m English & I’ve tasted Guernsey Cow milk when on holiday on the Island of Guernsey…and that is apparently A2 milk (which I never knew until recently) and it was absolutely delicious!
@@stevelanghorn1407 I do eat yogurt everyday, not addiction; it's just a different texture & flavor in my what by choice is a rather restrictive diet. Eating more for function than entertainment these days ...& getting so much more done!
I would be more concerned about the Lactose in yogurt.
With the many interviews I've heard over my lifetime, I can say you are one of the best interviewers that I have listened to. Great job. Thank you for this UA-cam video. I love Dr. Bright.
Thank you sooo much!! 💙
Yesssss Jesse!!!! Dr. Bright!! Love this lady she’s helped me so much! I’m so happy to see her here thank you Jesse! ❤
Ah, the nod to Dr. Jorge Flechas! He was the integrative doctor that got me on the path to wellness. Broke my heart when he retired. He started me on Hakala labs iodine and boron supplements. Forever grateful.
You actually were lucky enough to be his patient?
We are pretty close to the 300K subscribers wow / let's help Jesse by sharing this episode and other videos as much as possible, he deserve it. Thanks all
Yes we are, thank you! 🙏🏻💙🙌🏻
Dairy is very inflammatory for me. I've always handled it well in terms of not being lactose intolerant, so I thought it was fine for me. When I started ketovore and eliminated dairy (especially full fat Greek yogurt without any added sugar), my chronic sinusitis for years improved by about 80%, and my joint pain went away completely.
I do agree. I can't do dairy either, except butter and ghee. I have severe chronic sinusitis with polyps. I can finally breathe and sleep on high fat carnivore.
I've been cooking my butter down to ghee lately. I don't know if I have trouble with dairy or not but why not try getting off it.
Always reassuring to listen to the timeless wisdom from Elizabeth Bright 🎉
Best interview I have seen in the past couple of years…, excellent info! Thank you-both! 🙏🏻
She is brilliant!!! I love hearing her and her books are fantastic! ❤🎉❤🎉❤
You ask great questions Jesse! I handled my thyroid with iodine (from my chiropractor/master herbalist) for years. But since seeing regular and NP doctors the past 10 years- who advised against it due to Hashimotos - I've gone downhill physically on prescription meds and never once taken an iodine panel to see what's happening there. And my T3 is in the bottom of the range. Hearing Dr Bright has encouraged me to take iodine daily again. Thank you!
I use 5 drops of Lugols solution.
Raw milk contains lactase, which helps our bodies digest lactose. Lactase is destroyed during pasteurisation.
Love this content!!!!
Thank you @jessecampus! A thought-provoking interview. You asked really helpful questions! I appreciate your humble interviewing style, giving space for your guest to share rather than trying to validate your own perspectives. Because of this, I just subscribed! 😁
Much to think about … above all else, the theme seems that being more parasympathetic dominant is a key to reclaiming health, and eating enough fat can help with this. 😁
11:03 Dr. Bright " if you still have pain, you still have arthritis, you still have eczema, you still have psoriasis I would take out Dairy." Wow, " I would take out Dairy."
14:51 "The point of it is that you don't want it to be bleached. You don't want it to be iodized, because it's crap. The iodine they put in the iodize salt ,the Morton salt, is horrible, and it's bleached so it's not an electrolyte anymore. The magnesium chloride the potassium chloride those things that are electrolytes have been removed. They have been eliminated so that is not healthy salt." Wow! iodized Morton Salt it is crap.
35:45 "The first thing is usually joint pain goes away. Inflammation is reduced. it's an anti-inflammatory diet."
Bart Kay advises against changing your diet to Carnivore without easing into it over several weeks' time. He says you have to give the microbiome time to adjust. It also takes time for people to adapt to running on just fat.
@lindabirmingham603 Neither Kay or Bright have all the answers. I worked my way into full high fat carnivore over 3 months, after years of paleo-keto. Over the next 3 months, my digestion totally shut down. Turns out meat isn't digested well in a poorly functioning digestive system. It doesn't matter how much fat is added. These people will end up doing similar harm as the standard practitioners they aim to replace.
@@gmw3083 so how do you get your digestive system to a better level on a meat and fat diet? Just time?
Unfortunately, Dr William Davis discusses " iodine toxicity and that iodine destroys the microbiome". I believe Dr Bright is correct.l, so is Dr Brownstein. We need the iodine. I use it and I give it to my dogs also, I've most likely been iodine deficient my entire life; now, hypothyroid, but iodine helps, along with thyroid meds
How many drops do you use in addition to your med? 2%/5%?
Love Dr.Bright 💓🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟.....
Her wealth of knowledge is a blessing 🙌 & has helped me sooo much....
I live the carnivore lifestyle for my hashimoto's thyroiditis. Its a game Changer & my symptoms have greatly improved ...
For those out there , who say it is sooo restrictive...you're right - it is .....yet, what is more restrictive is - having zero Energy, pain all over, foggy mind , mood issues , feeling bloated etc .......not feeling good at all .....
I know my body is still healing.....( as at one point, l had NO thyroid function ).....
I've been strict for over a year now...& wow what a difference l feel ....
I give my Thanks to - DR. ELIZABETH BRIGHT 🌞. ........
I Salute her 👏 ....

I listen to your podcast relatively often and i listen to many podcasts from all over the world (live in Greece, speak many languages). I d like to let you know that in my opinion you re one of the best podcasters that i know. Thanks. Stay healthy and good at what you re doing! Greetings from Greece!
Thanks.
I'm trying to get rid of all carbohydrates completely, including coffee.
Even the small daily amount of carbohydrates in coffee is enough to keep the harmful Clostridium spore bacteria alive.
In a strict carnivore, they die off in about two years.
This is so crazy. You have doctors telling you to eat food in an order, doctors telling you to fast. Doctors telling you to just eat meat. Doctors telling you to just eat vegetables. Tired of it! Exercise, destress, eat real whole foods.
Great interview! Interesting lady. Thank you Dr. Bright.
Jesse you are amazing. The questions you ask and the knowledge you have to have about the person you're interviewing is impressive. Keep up the great work, it's so appreciated.
She is right on the animal fat point. There is a reason that veganism was never a thing in the vegetarian capital of the world, India. Ghee, from healthy cows fed a correct diet, is essential for human health if one is a Hindu-like vegetarian. An entire culture and continent raised this one food item to level of the divine with the backing of states, kingdoms, temples, and Ayurvedic doctors for thousands of years.
Sadly because of adulteration of foods and destruction of soil health, a healthy vegetarian diet without the aid of supplements is becoming increasingly difficult. Similarly grain fed meats and toxic seafood have their own health problems.
They have a lot of visceral fat muscles look like grain fed cows, diabetes heart disease and obesity is rising rapidly.
I am doing intermitent fasting (14 hours without food, only water) and I am not eating anything after 6 pm.
I have already eliminated 10kg. I am going to work by bycicle early im the morning no matter what weather I have here in Germany. I am taking some vitamins and supplements and eating all I love and lots of proteins, too.
I feel much better than a year ago, or months ago, have more energy and less tired. I sleep like a rock and I stand up at 5.45. Get ready for a new day and at 9.00 pm. I go to my bed. I also do all my chores home (cleaning, cooking, as any other housekeeper does daily) and I go for shopping by bike too.
I can tell you that fasting is the best thing for me as I have done it before, and I will continue living like that. It works for me perfectly.
I also take Iodine, Omega 3, Vitamins and Iron, daily.
If it works for me doesn't mean it will work for you too but, if you try it, what do you have to lose?
Really good interview Jesse and thank you to Dr E. Bright for the fantastic information.
Jesse, thank you for asking such great questions. You really helped me understand Dr. Bright’s position on so many topics.
💙
We didn't evolve to do ultra marathons or experience chronic stress, but paddle boarding 6 to 7 K daily is OK.? Seems stressful to me. Who to believe.
I've been saying for years fat should be re-classified as a organ because it does perform functions like storing nutrients
Thank you for bringing to us simple but forgotten truth. Thank you thank you thank you ❤
I think raw milk is inportant because it has lactase which digests the lactose. I don’t drink much raw milk; it’s simply a treat once in a while, but it’s a huge difference in taste and how it makes me feel.
I REALLY appreciate this bright Dr. BRIGHT ✨️ VERY inspiring...🧙♂️🇨🇦
This was an awesome interview, thank you Jesse. I am a firm believer in one to five day fasting to emulate our ancestral way of eating/hunting especially when it comes to autophagy. I wish I knew what Dr. Bright viewpoint are on autophagy. this is the only area that I disagree with Dr. Bright is when it comes to intermittent fasting and autophagy as she feels it raises, cortisol too high, which I understand but when we were hunters, we had no choice to intermittently fast when hunting for a kill. There’s gotta be a way to reboot the system when it comes to eliminating the old used mitochondria at the cellular level and create new mitochondria and autophagy is the only way I’m aware of.
I agree with you on fasting. I think it can benefit in a way that eating, even if it’s only meat, can’t. BUT there are other ways to get autophagy without fasting. A couple ways include intense exercise and hot and cold therapy.
On high fat carnivore, I get 7.8 ketones after 16 hours so I don't really fast. I just wait until my hungry and I get into autophagy. That's why I love carnivore. It's like a cheat code. "Fasting" without actually fasting.
@@LauraB.335 but those raises cortisol based on Dr. Bright
Agree. You will never see Cellular repair on a carnivore diet alone in comparison to some extended fasts of 36 hours plus.
@@mj625 I've had massive cellular repairs without fasting. I was so sick and now everything is better and I look like a legit athlete with no training. Carnivore is pretty good on its own. I would see why you'd wanna fast for cancer or epilepsy though.
My father grew up in the Appalachian Mountains as so did I. But his family were farmers and his mother cooked 3 meals a day.. Had a garden, etc. His mother and father lived to 96 and 97. He just passed away at 95 in 2023. My grandparents never had a vaccination as only went to the doctor if they needed one.. Not monthly. They had chickens, pigs, Cows and a garden. My grandfather ground cornmeal from his corn and the community would bring corn for him to ground for them. My father would not eat chicken because he did some grading work at a chickens farm down the road. He saw who they were fed and how they lived. It truly made a bad impression on him. And have wouldn't eat mushrooms because he saw where there grew too. Cow patties. He died from CLL after he had one flu vaccine and had been bitten by a tic twice. Both times he had the big red bullet mark. He received the antibiotics but he still got CLL. I believe he had the leukemia over the years because he had blood leakage years earlier all from leaky gut. What causes leaky gut? Grains..and oxalate vegetables. He also had his gallbladder removed too. But he drank buttermilk all cornbread. His gut issues arrived after the 70's. We also have O+ blood. Moral of the story.. Don't eat grains again vegetables, night shades, oxalates and only eat meat. My grandmother put iodine on our cuts and skinned places. She also made my sisters and I take SSS tonic. I wonder what was in that..
I checked SSS tonic, it’s liquid Iron/B vitamin.
@@HeleneTremblay-dw9ov I remember that it gave me a lot of energy..
@@jannlittle4745
Supposedly, old people shouldn't take iron - it accelerates aging. B vitamins are supposed to provide energy.
@@cynthiashores57 very true.. and calcium and vitamin C. Vitamin C helps absorb iron from foods and calcium can leak into your blood causing calcification.
@@cynthiashores57 true. My father has CLL and had to take iron with vitamin C which helps with absorption. Most people don’t have that.. And he lost blood through his intestinal tract. From leaky gut..
The most informative interview with Dr.Bright that I've seen. Thank you both!
I have gone to a very high fat carnivore diet and dropped 10lbs in 10days and I am not very overweight 😮
What makes you lose weight is maintaining and restoring your equilibrium 👌🏼 getting out of a stress state relaxes the parasympathetic nervous system to rest & digest 😅
high cortisol is kryptonite 💯
This became my favorite episode ❤
💙
Nicely done! I'm a huge fan of Dr. Bright. Thank you for having her on.
I like your thoughful questions Jesse. I just came across your channel. Where have you been? Subscribed. I love Dr. Bright!
I am a longtime subscriber of Jesse but out of all Dr Bright’s interviews with other UA-camrs he has asked the best questions. 👍🏾❤
Love Dr Bright, great video. But I wish you asked her how to detox the thyroid if someone does have a reaction when taking iodine
It's so sad , that the first thing people cut out with any condition is fat and meat . I know of a lot of diabetics who cut those things out but still eat all the carbs. I'm hoping and praying that Healthcare professionals including dietitians will start researching and promoting and sharing with their patients these types of options. Only 10 years ago Healthcare professionals were still pushing ice cream for cancer patients and they are still pushing plants and fiber for people who have GI issues. Thank you to the doctors who are courageously sharing information that heals.
I remember a time when you could buy iodine in the local pharmacy and we used it a lot as a family. Now, it’s hard to find and expensive. I wonder why.
Great questions Jesse! Super interview, thank you.
We are what we eat 👌🏼 diet is key 🗝️ to balance & harmony directly
She briefly discussed good sleep habits. I actually hadnt heard much of that before. I go to sleep around 8 or 9, usually when the sun goes down, and get up about 4. Not sure what is wrong with that.
Also, exercise at night may not be so bad if it is more structural exercise, for health, rather than fitness.
I would lkke to hear more of her on this.
Awesome common sense doctor 👏 great interview
No meat since 1976- vegan 13 yrs. Cholesterol 279- hdl 100- triglycerides 60. Blood pressure 107/68.
Super fit with excellent muscle mass for a 67yr old senior- same weight as my twenties. Been eating fresh natto for 6?yrs and sea moss daily. I’m absolutely thriving without animal products for decades!!
She is on point with everything except the fasting. That’s a no brainer and both anecdotal and scientific experience show it’s effectiveness. Ayurveda with its 5000 years of proven results expounds the value of fasting.
Completely with you. Fasting is natural - as we hunted, we often had to go without for a while. Exactly how long I don’t know. Lions only catch a prey once in about 5 days, if I’m not mistaken. Eating completely regularly is unnatural. And then, autophagy etc. There is such a thing as beneficial stress, hormesis. I think she’s got this wrong.
Agreed. But she did say 2 days max of fasting so she is not saying don't fast, I agree with her in that aspect. Intermittent fasting and a dry fast for a day i believe is sufficient esp if you are practising IF everyday. 6-18 hrs.
@@i.ehrenfest349 Fasting on purpose isn't natural. Our ancestors didn't have a choice. You are looking at 2 different scenarios and calling them the same thing. Eat when you are hungry. Listen to your body and your instincts, not the 'mind', that has been brainwashed by society.
But she taches fat fasting!
Yeah, India, with the lowest life expectancy...
Great content you guys! Thank you!
Ty sir , very informative and I love the questions you ask. 😊
Very interesting. I eat fatty pork, bacon & eggs for breakfast and beef & eggs for tea which is 8 hours apart. I do drink raw milk and that's about it. Amazingly healthy for 65, 5'10" & 164lbs this morning. I also snack occasionally on home made jerky with butter. Also make pemican which contains some seasonal fruit.
Iodine is burned up rapidly especially when someone is I'll. The breasts and ovaries store Iodine. Cysts are an indication of deficiency. ❤
I use Lugols 5% every day in my coffee.
How many drops?
Great video. I follow Dr Bright. I'm a full time carnivore!!! NEVER going back to S.A.D. again.
Spot on with chicken eggs and reaction! So interested in your knowledge. Thank you for sharing Dr. Bright
Those who can’t eat whites can eat the yolks, most can eat duck eggs.
I thrive on grassfed pasture raised ruminants. I’ve seen a chicken eat a frog! I don’t enjoy eating birds of any kind. Love scallops, caviar, fish roe and cod liver!
I have read decaf coffee is related to getting Parkinson’s and related disease. It’s the chemical processing that is the problem and water processed decaf is the safest to get. Is this true?
Brilliant talk! Good that you asked about iodie and gut flora but the answer was different than what dr William Davis said. I am puzzled
Great insight on iodine.
my 4 year old daughter has 3 drops that contains 337 mg of potassium iodide 3 times a week.
I eat 15 to 20 squares of Japanese made nori seaweed daily.
my physician put me on 2% Lugols iodine 4 drops twice a day 2 years ago. I'm still on it. Not sure if it's done anything.
Dr. Bright is awesome! Wonder if someone is on thyroid meds if they can supplement with iodine.
I had hyperthyroid and took levothyroxine for 10 years. Took myself off slowly the meds and it’s normal levels now. I take 2 drops of iodine
I would love to get off my thyroid meds. How did you do it??? @@mariepaukowits1709
She smiles at 10.55! :)
She's speaking my language...🙌
I love listening to Dr Bright. I've changed from butter to ghee, not sure if there is any benefit but who knows, might aid in balance and weight loss. I do make my own bone broth from beef feet. I've tried sardines but just gag on them. Now trying ground lamb. I saw online recently that Redmond salt is very high in lead and arsenic per 3rd party labs. Should we be stopping that?
Lead is an element. You can't get away from it. There's lead in all soil and salt, and plants, tea, coffee, its in all your dinnerware. It's in paint and varnish. It's in the walls of your home. Everybody is eating redmond salt without issues for years and years. I think if you're healthy, if you're especially carnivore, the body will not have to spend its time detoxing grains and beans and all that other junk, so the body finally has a chance to focus on other toxins. I wouldn't worry.
She warns against ground meat. Eat it in its natural state.
Also try Celtic sea salt. Might be better.
she said grind meat adds heat. mine doesn't I grind it myself, easier for me to chew. Cooking adds heat anyway. I don't get her concern.
Thanks for asking about how to take iodine. Crows has no directions, so I've just tested it on my skin to see how fast it absorbs. I heard that wasn't a good test, but I was afraid to take it orally since the bottle gives no directions- so I thought orally must be dangerous. I got my answer on this show. Thank you!
Love this women !
Great guests and great questions!
My wife has been a vegetarian for years and has really high cholesterol. On your take, she should be devoid of cholesterol. Can you please explain how she is like this?
She doesn't eat enough fat so her body is making more. That's what I was told about my elevated cholesterol. She needs to walk everyday and eat healthy fats
"We didn't evolve to have a tiger jump back through the door~ hey I'm back to scare you, since you're better!"~ Now there's some common sense. Let's be strong, be active & challenge ourselves appropriately, yet also be good to ourselves~ be smart about it. There's a lot to be said for peace & calm~ unless you already live in a utopic bubble, of course.
*Love Fred Hahn's "slow burn" weight/strength training method. It's also virtually stress & injury free. Very protective of all the other work I'm doing to heal & sustain my good health efforts, especially stress.
Dietary cholesterol contributes to only a small portion of your overall blood cholesterol. While it was once thought to be a major factor, recent research has shown that your body's own production of cholesterol plays a much more significant role
This was very helpful. Thanks both of you! 😃
whole cultures have survived and thrived eating mainly vegetable proteins, drinking milk or fermented milk and eating fermented veggies - they did this by learning how to prep their food properly and of course no junk food. And yes their are those who live on a mainly carnivore diet and do well to. So you just need to listen to your body, eat what your ancestors ate and you should be fine
There are no proteins in vegatables. Cultures? You mean the Chinese and Indian people's? The 2 highest rates of diabetes on the planet. Those people?
None that ate solely plants though.
They had some meat and dairy.
But none that survived without any at all.
So the difference is ratios, not content.
Lugols is available at the company Holistic ,at least in Sweden.
Are iodine capsules made from kelp as good as the drops????
what I do not understand is that she states we should not eat sugar, plants and carbs because we would not do so back in the day before our food system was created with abundance. Then she states that we should not fast because it is not healthy but back in the day we would not be able to eat every day all day. So do we connect with our former diet and lifestyle or do we just cherry pick? Just asking. Also when we would hunt it would be a marathon at times because we could not be successful at hunting 100 percent of the time. We actually evolved a very specific mechanism for running long distance which is perspiration.
Yes, but fasting and marathon sprints were done for survival and not by choice and not on purpose. That is the difference. If you are talking about what is natural, forcing yourself to do those things is unnatural. Eat when you're hungry. You shouldn't have much of an appetite on carnivore anyway.
Due to our modern lifestyles we would never fast nor run a marathon unless we choose to. Just because we do not have to does not mean that we should not especially since we have only been living in abundance for only a fraction of our historical footprint. If you were on an unsuccessful hunt would you not have to force yourself to run a marathon? If you were unsuccessful for days would that not be considered fasting? We have the biological mechanisms to withstand these stresses. When not used you become soft.
Great info ,just wondering what you think about HRT ?
30:30 start with 2 weeks of only grass fed ruminant meat and butter. No grain fed omega-6 eggs, pork or chicken.
To compare dairy and heroine is a little crazy. It's in no way a similar addition. Your coffee is much more addictive than dairy and not to mention it raises cortisol/anxiety more than fasting
People sensitive to dairy should try kefir milk.
She talks about how we evolved hunting but then goes on to say she doesn’t believe in fasting. However, as I eat a plate of bacon right out of the refrigerator, can I assume our ancestors did not have refrigeration and went days without eating? Apparently we are one of the few species that goes without eating for days.
