Red Meat Causes Diabetes? New Study should Concern Carnivores
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2025
- Red Meat is an ancestral food for every human, including you. But, what if red meat causes diabetes? This would fly in the face of the results of 1000's of carnivores who've used a carnivore diet to reverse type 2 diabetes. And, if it's not true, then what's really going on with studies like this?

When my A1C was 10.5 I found Dr. Berry’s videos. I followed the drastic weight loss video and list 40 pounds in 9 weeks. I ate nothing but red meat. Not only did I lose that weight, my A1C came down to 5.7. I have continued following the Keto diet for almost two years. Today, my A1C is around 5. I am on no prescription meds. My total weight loss is 100 pounds. I have maintained for one year. To add perspective, I also changed my sedentary lifestyle. I tell everyone who asks, 80% nutrition and 20% exercise. Anyone can dramatically change their health and quality of life.
Im curious, did you see any change in libido and sex drive?
Plus, he was great on Mama's Family.
Great job on the weight loss. I bet you feel a ton better.
I eat red meat 4 times a week 😊
@@Crochetseascape I eat red meat twice a day 😃
They absolutely should limit their red meat consumption. Leave it for the rest of us.
😂👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Amen!!
LOL Don't act like you believe their food shortage lies too.
😂
@@1Bonnie777 I don’t. But if everyone got on the meat diet, steak prices would definitely go up to meet demand until the supply catches up. Who knows how long that would take.
Eating red meat cured my pre-diabetes
I always apply the opposite rule.
My husband keeps getting better and better on carnivore. It’s amazing!
@@riccocoolMe too.
Same
Get your meat from Mormons if possible much healthier for you
Eating meat only, and most of that is red meat, reversed my type 2 diabetes and I no longer take 6 medications that I previously was on for nearly 12 years. I also lost a lot of weight, 80 pounds, by living a carnivore lifestyle over the last 9 months. I am now kicking butt at 50.
You could have lost 80 pounds on a balanced diet and cured diabetes too.
im no longer pre diabetic, my fasting glucose is 75-85, and my liver enzymes are better due to eating more animal products and less ultra- processed foods..
Eco socialist propaganda...they hate cows men cars red meat
@@JamesG1126 Can you elaborate? Should a type 2 diabetic eat a bunch of carbs and sugar?
I only eat red meat in ounces, zero cups of red meat in over 40 years, diabetus free!
I quit believing mainstream news over 25 years ago.
🙌💕
Me too
Doctors take what mainstream media serious and echo propaganda back to us.
Happy awakinig
The study excluded what people were actually eating. The excessive consumption of rice, bread, potatoes, cakes, pies, cookies, apple, orange, pinaeapple juices, sugar in their coffee...
Funny that😂
100%
Absolutely agree 💯
It must be the carb people complaining on this especially big pharma!🛐
I do use real honey in my coffee.
I no longer need 40 units of insulin a day eating a carnivor diet for over a year. My doctor said I am doing great, no insulin needed any more.
Same here!
But ... but .... but that Harvard study said that red meat causes diabetes!!!!!!!!!!
Did you tell him about your diet?
Outstanding ❤
That’s my goal!
All I can say from my personal experience is that my mother was a diabetic for many years.
She started a 100 percent carnivore diet over a year ago and she lost over 100 pounds and is no longer on any medication including insulin.
Same here,researchers bought off again,follow the money.
a1c 5.6 no meds at all.
That’s all you gotta say right there.
Huzza😊😊
Do you care about hormones given to cattle, is that a concern?
@@jharvey9898 Or pesticides put on plants? Or the fact that 99% of them are now hybridized/lab tinkered before put into the soil? The fact of the matter is, all of our food is somewhat contaminated, no matter what the label says about being organic or "non-GMO". The difference is, ruminant animals have many stomach chambers to filter a lot of crap out before it ends up in the bone and muscle tissue, red meat is simply far more nutrient dense than plants, and irrefutably better for you. If it comes down to which toxins are you putting in your body? The most nutrient dense ones, please.
A single concern like hormones in red meat does not justify eating plants.
My dad got type 2 diabetes. He ate red meat almost every day since being a very young child. What is never questioned by these surveys is how much of everything else they ate. My dad had 6 cups of tea a day with 2 teaspoons of sugar. He also ate deserts every night and cereal for breakfast with a desert spoon of sugar on it followed by toast with jam on it. Even his doctor was only concerned with the meat and fat in his diet.
That’s just wild.
This is a perfect demonstration of how misleading some studies are. You’re spot on in pointing out the hypocrisy of it all!
Exactly
Exactly! How many people who say they eat a lot of red meat are eating hamburgers covered in sugary sauces on sugar-filled carby white buns. Or steak with loads of mashed potatoes, and fries with everything. 😂
I switched from doctor visits to visiting the butcher and in 1 year my health has improved 100%
Thank dr Berry 🥩
Love the parallel- YES, just spend that time & money visiting the butcher instead of the doctor, and get better results! I usually buy whatever beef is on sale at the grocery store. But still - love the parallel.
Going to the butcher with your shopping list is the best prescription for a better, healthier life than any statin, or semiglutide compound will provide.
🙂
Switching from a doctor to a butcher, what a funny answer !
I was the 2nd largest kid in my class in the 70s because my family was poor and only ate meat on Sunday. So my life debunks these studies. I at 54 have had a relationship with diets my whole life. The times in my life when I was my healthiest and skinniest was the drinking raw egg phase in the 80s and eating cottage cheese on lettuce in my 20s every day. Now I finally found what works and last year lost 50 pounds on carnivore. Went back to carbs (oats/pasta) and gained 30 in 6 months. I get so upset with these lies. They knew in the 70s meat is the way to health and pushed no meat since the 80s and look at how sick America is. I love Italy as they just signed that they will NEVER bring in fake meat into their country. Other countries know that America is BS.
So glad you addressed this. I had a friend message me a link to the article and it almost blew my mind. What I did notice is that the key promoters of this study are from the plant based supporters
Use your fucking brain. Why would anybody from the meat industry or a carnivore show any concern about this?
That’s like telling a smoker that cigarettes cause cancer and disease . They don’t care and they ignore all the warnings. Let people enjoy their life, I’d rather eat what makes me happy and die young than live a long miserable life eating vegetables all day.
Who were the key promoters? Everyone that’s carnivore hates plant base
I am almost 79 years old, and I don't believe I would be making this post now if I had continued to follow my traditional doctor's medical advice. I would probably be dead, but thanks to Dr. Atkins, Dr. Berry, Dr. Chafee and several others. I'm still here and enjoying life.
When I told my traditional doctor I wouldn't take the medication prescribed anymore and was starting a keto diet, (I have since transitioned to carnivore, 95% beef about a year ago), he dropped me as a patient and said with his finger in my face, " Your ulcerative colitis will definitely come back. That was 24 years ago.(Still waiting for it to come back) My top weight under conventional medical care was 264 pounds, and at 5 foot nine, I now am 185 pounds. I sleep like a baby at night and don't need any little blue pills. My wife and I do just fine without them.
Always tell your doctor that "I am choosing a lifestyle change through diet and exercise. " Also, say,"I'll think about it. " Then they are less likely to fire you.
See what happens when you tell your doctor exactly what he does not want to hear?
I'm so petty, I would send a picture with a letter that reads "My ulcerative colitis never came back."
Dr Berry I’ve watch your channel for several years I reversed my awful fibromyalgia and got my life back on keto; I’m now ketovore 95% eating animal products . I’m nearly 69 years old and look after our horses longer and harder than my friends and 31 year old daughter😊 get plenty of heavy lifting so hopefully my bones are strong too! Carry on your and Neisha’s wonderful work protecting our babies and adults alike. These studies also show how frightened industry is becoming! ❤
@@debbiehopper5288no, better to be straightforward with it. If they’re only interested in prescribing you half the pharmacy instead of helping you be healthy, it’s better to find that out and seek out a better physician. On the other hand, if they are interested in you being healthy, seeing your results may help them learn about proper nutrition.
I am embarrassed to say that I was a part of the Nurse’s Health study under WW. Food frequency study since the 1980s. Everything you said is correct. Now I am Ketovore/ carnivore going on 4 yrs. Improved my health and changed my life! Thank you Dr. Berry!
I’m in The Nurses’ Health Study II. They do the ridiculous questionnaires asking your various food intake over the previous year 🙄. Such bad science…
@debrarn1195 why do they ask such ridiculous questions?
I , also have been part of the Nurses Health study from its beginning. Always thought the food recall questions strange! Wonder what they would make of me now marking no fruits, no veg, no diabetes (ever, I caught the slight elevation back in 2017 and changed my WOE). And I would be marking lots of meat, bacon and eggs!
I have done WW many times....points, flex points, exchanges, etc. I always lost....but never maintained loss until I simple ate more animal protein and veg. I am not carnivore...doing keto for now. Let's just say WW followed our flawed Food Pyramid/government suggested foods...all tied to BIG FOOD.
I am so pissedoff about this attack on eating meat that I find myself screaming at this sort of attack on ketocarnivore ! It freaking saved my LIFE to discover carnivore.!!!!!!
This was the first thing I heard about when I went to a family dinner.
I told them I’ve been carnivore three years- no medication no supplements I do jujitsu , I jump on the trampoline with the grandkids. I am 60 years old 110 lbs. 5 ‘1.
Healed diabetes, arthritis,brain fog from brain injury, high energy, no anxiety, best sleep-love life and health!!
My cardiologist told me - they do not know enough about the carnivore diet and I’m not your common 60 year old.keep doing what I’m doing!!
The study is not accurate.
It is amazing that it is on all news outlets. Why??
You and Neisha are wonderful- you’ve helped me find health to be my best self!!
this study is a joke, just look at India the diabetes capitol of the world with the most Vegans and vegetarians on the planet, followed by China their diet is Rice, grains, and carbs,
I'm 63 5'10 170 and went from 205 to 168. And I lift weights and workout outside in the Florida heat. It wasn't until I cut out all bread and cereal and bad carbs did I lose that weight. Diet is the key . Funny thing is that I never starved myself to lose weight. If I wanted more food I ate another chicken drumstick with skin or another hamburger. Eggs too PS, you look amazing and I wish more women would wake up. As a single guy there are no inshape single women my age .
Why is this on all the news outlets? How many times do you see a segment "Brought to you by Pfeizer/Moderna/Johnson & Johnson, etc..." That's why.
and so I ask them what their diet is doing for them. HOW'S IT WORKING FOR YA ?
Yes I saw this in the news about how eating rad meat gives you diabetes ! How foolish is that.
I just completed 90 days as a Carnivore and my A1c dropped from 8.8 to 6.5! I am also down 20lbs. Thank you Dr. Berry for sharing your knowledge.❤
I'm at day 43
Keep going ❤By now, you're likely in the normal range, I'm sure!
Well done! Do you still continue?
I am at day 30. These videos and your testimony are motivating!!!
18 years taking drugs for Type 2 and high blood pressure. 1 year on carnivore, A1C down into the normal range, blood pressure normal, lost 50pds, no more drugs of any kind required. Going carnivore is the best thing I have ever done. Thank you for your advice Dr. Berry and Nurse Neisha.
I'm with 'ya!
Congratulation. My doctor keeps trying to push cholesterol pills on me. But my issue isnt cholesterol its too much fast food. So i cut back on the fast food and my cholesterol came down. No need for pills, just more self control.
18 years against just 1 year. Pretty remarkable
@@supernova743how long ago did you cut out fast food?
Science used to be used to benefit the human race. Now it's being perverted to hurt people.
I'm still shocked how misinformed we were by the "experts" regarding fat intake, telling us to eat the worst type of fat. Makes me skeptical of anything they tell us.
Most research is crap and fake and super shallow and most doctors are just as sick as their patients cause they know 0 about nutrition and how it affects the human body… really sad but it’s our fallen world
It was an intentional on purpose “misinformed”.
You should be skeptical of everything you believe. This isn’t just about diet, it really is everything.
Remember the " jab" ... I never took it and never will. And I'm 63.
Follow the money. See who funds these researchers as well as medical schools, the AMA, American Heart Association. Corporations are not benevolent beings. They are emotionless entities that care only for profit. When a system is based on profit, it depends on repeat customers.
I was a 17 year vegetarian, 12 of those vegan, and developed diabetes and high blood pressure while vegan. My A1C was at it’s highest as a whole food vegan. Eating meat brought my A1C from a 7.1 to a 5.4.
same here
carbs and sugar are the bad guy in vegan diets...
When you were vegan, what did you usually eat? Maybe a large number of sweet apples or other fruits full of fructose? Just curious to know these details.
Sugar did that to ya.
Wow! Meat really does heal! I remember when I tried both lifestyles and started gaining weight. I stopped and starting the SAD woe until I discovered carnivore a month ago. So far I’ve loss 15 pounds.
I was diagnosed T2 18 months ago. I switched from mostly vegetarian to mostly carnivore. I'm off metformin and my a1c was 4.8 earlier this week.
❤
When you were vegetarian were you eating starches and sugars? Wondering if vegetables and/or nuts alone were causing the T2...
@TG-vg3qe No. When my a1c hit 5.7, I cut back to ~60g carbs/day. It wasn't low enough. I was never a fan of sweet stuff. 18/6 IF and 20g/day was the turning point.
@@63ah1275 Thank you!
@@63ah1275 Thank you!
Eating exclusively red meat is literally saving my life in multiple ways including; diabetes, breast cancer, horrific constant body pain, unable to lift my arms up to my head, obesity, sleeplessness, and much more - and today is only my 30th day as a complete carnivore! God Bless Dr. Berry! 🙏
I'm glad to hear of your success, but don't we need some vegetables for complete nutrition?
No
@@mrlafayette1964nope, meat has more nutrition and is way more bioavailable than any fruit and vegetables. That’s why vegans take supplements.
@@mrlafayette1964 Nope.
Oh wow, I am battling myself to get of my mostly veggie/fruit diet to switch over. I have hormone positive breast cancer and told should stay away from red meat and dairy . Can you please tell me about your breast cancer details?
Cultures ate red meat for hundreds and thousands of years and survived in the harshest areas of the world with this diet. The Inuit, many African tribes, the nomadic steppe tribes of Central Asia, the Sami in the north of Scandinavia. I think red meat is one of the most nutritious things humans can eat
Not only red meat but also fat. The Eskimos thrived on a mostly fat diet and never had heart problems, diabetes and other sicknesses & diseases until they were introduced to carbohydrates and alcohol.
*Millions of years.
Red meat is a super food! If they ever told the truth about it, it would harm big food's profits! They will continue this lie
GOD put it here for us to eat . But man found a way to make a fortune by selling garbage and then another fortune by putting people on medications instead of telling people to not eat their garbage.
Well clearly they must of all had undiagnosed diabetes. In other news they have made fruit so sweet that monkeys in zoos are getting rotten teeth and diabetes from it but let’s not talk about that. It is definitely the meat.
As a PhD, this type of research is embarrassing for anyone who has studied appropriate scientific methods. I have lost over 75 pounds and my husband has lost 80 and is no longer on insulin due to the proper human diet. These medical doctors are why most of us with a brain no longer listen to them and find our confidence in medicine to be in question.
What area of research are you in?
Polio cases collapsed outright during the Industrial Revolution. After it came down about 95% they made a vaccine and claimed victory.
We’ll said.
I was prediabetic and started IF and keto. My A1C went down and so did my cholesterol levels. When I got down to below 100 I decided to not do Keto and switched to low carbs. I’m now maintaining around the low 100s. People think I’m crazy when that I’m listening to info on UA-cam instead of my doctors but I’m using common sense on what is working and not taking meds if I don’t have to.
@I.identify.as.a Both my husband and I have doctoral degrees in clinical psychology.
My A1C has dropped significantly! I'm blown away every time I check my A1C. My life has completely changed within days!!
The crap going on in this country is shameful. They will stop at nothing to make sure people stay sick 🤯 The sad thing is people will actually believe it
Indeed, the country is being run by globalists (communosts) so it makes perfect sense. They want us fat, sick, dumb, and NEEDY.....they are winning.
Whoops with the spelling.
@@zamfirtoth6441 What???
Doctors have become like the cr 00 ked lawyers and politicians.
Sick, ignorant people are easier to control.
I went from an A1c of 6.2 (pre-diabetic) to 4.9 and lost 40lbs by going Ketovore. We need real studies. Unfortunately, Harvard has lost all credibility on so many subjects lately.
I did my own study which my doctor and I found much more reliable . Scientific lab equipment, including test strips were purchased from CVS. Test subject of one watched over 2+ years. Meat with increased fat was consumed on a daily basis. Baseline blood level was 170-245. Average blood level within 6 months = 97-107. I'd like to take this moment to thank every cow who participated in my research. Couldn't have done it without them. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you cows.
Aren’t cows wonderful?❤️
You forgot to mention that no humans were injured in this research! MOO!
@@maintenancebynathan2150 😂👍
😅😅😅
Hubby and I have been on Keto for nearly three years. Hubs was a type 2 diabetic and lost 75 pounds on Keto. He was able to stop taking insulin and is maintaining the weight loss diligently. I lost 57 pounds, going from size 1X to size 8 women's clothing and avoiding developing diabetes. Also happily maintaining the weight loss over time. No other diet I have been on can compare for improvement of health and maintaining the weight loss! And yes, now and then we splurge and have a piece of fruit or maybe even a little ice cream, but those things are now true occasional treats rather than a daily occurrence. Keto, and its sisters - ketovore and carnivore - are truly the most satisfying and healthy lifestyle changes a person can make
I’m 71 years old and have been severe diabetic and overweight for ten years. I’ve been carnivore for the last three months. This week I had my six monthly check up with the doctors. My blood work was excellent, my weight was back to normal, my blood pressure was getting near normal and the doctor took me of all drugs.
When I got home and feeling very pleased with myself, I sat down and read the news and came across this same article about red meat and the link to diabetes. What the hell is going on. I’m losing faith with the powers to be who are supposedly have my health in there best interest.
Keep doing what you're doing since it's clearly working for you.
Unfortunately the bottom line is money. Doctors and drug companies need sick people to make their payroll.
Whatever the powers that be in the "health" arena say do the opposite.
Congratulations on your amazing health journey.❤
If you are diabetic you don't need to worry about it causing diabetes you already have it😂
It actually fixes diabetes, keep eating meat👍
The health industry exists for its own ends. You're merely a consumer unit to them. Congratulations on taking control of your health. All the best for you in the future.
I ate meat-heavy keto for 5 years and carnivore the past 3.5 years. I eat 1-2 pounds of meat a day with red meat being my primary source. A1c is 4.9. What say you, Harvard?
how do you do it? my A1C is 4.5 now. I just cannot eat even half pound of great ribeye at a meal. we are still trying.
@@charvankerck9617 you may have to intentionally overeat for a while to expand your digestive capacity. I had to do that for a couple of weeks in the beginning. 3 years in and I can put away a 2 pound steak in one sitting and get back to living.
Harvard = "crickets"
@@charvankerck9617play around with what you’re eating as well if ribeye isn’t what you’re craving. I’ve recently found that I’m much hungrier for protein than I am for fat (I’ve started resistance training and my body comp is changing, so that’s not shocking), so I have a much easier and more enjoyable time putting away a lean cut like London Broil than a Ribeye for the moment.
I don't see how any person doing carnivore could survive on only 1/2 lb. per day?!@@charvankerck9617
I was a border line diabetic and went to doctor last week. In just 6 weeks sugar went to normal and cholesterol went down 29 points and back to normal. I eat 95% red meat. I’m a believer of carnivore! Thanks for your guidance.

"Moderation seems to be the key."
Jimmy Buffett Song line from Barometer Soup.
Consider Dr. Robert Haas' book, Eat to Win, "moderate" quantity of meat plan.
“Sail the main course in a simple sturdy craft. Keep her well stocked with short stories and long laughs. Go fast enough to get there but slow enough to see. Moderation seems to be the key.” ― Jimmy Buffett
Thank you. I have been following you for years. You saved my life. This morning my BP was 114/66, down from approximately 150/100. I have never been on medication even when it was high. My fasting blood glucose was 72 this morning, down from between 90 and 150. Never been on diabetes meds even when it was high. Thank you again. I live in Waco, Texas. I didn't find out you were coming to San Antonio in time to make the drive or I would have. Looking forward to meeting you in person sometime because I have a gift for you.
Great video. I'm doing a video about this later today. Diabetes is a problem with glucose control. Not any glucose in red meat!
It's the spiking of insulin throughout the day from snacking and consumption of carbs as you put it "glucose". OMAD with red meat and even Block-fasting solves the type 2 diabetes issue. Thus focusing on glucose is only half of the picture. Feel free to use me as a reference on your video. 😁
Saw this same headline in a UK online newspaper a few days ago and was horrified at the misinformation about eating red meat. My husband is definitely a carb and sugar addict and has T2D and is on far too much medication (and the NHS removed my colon because of Crohns) . A couple of months ago found you via Carnivoredoctors’ videos and convinced my husband to listen to you too. You’ve convinced both of us to eat more meat! Second night and his house-rattling snoring stopped! And much of our inflammation has subsided; no more trigger finger for me, and his backache has started to subside. So it’s still early days for us but we are CONVINCED! Thank you Dr Berry for sharing your wisdom far and wide.
🥳 Good for you!!! I’m so glad for you! As you keep eating lots of meat, and fewer carbs, you’ll notice other improvements in your health. After a month or 2 of eating 96% carnivore, I noticed that I felt much more calm than before. The arthritis pain in my fingers went away. I’ve been eating this way most of the time (vacation for a week being the exception) for 6 months now, and I’ve lost 20-24 lbs. effortlessly. Please, let me encourage you to continue! 🙏
I reversed my Type 2 Diabetes listening to Dr. Ken Berry. He Speaks the Truth!!
Since carnivore I track what I ate, the time and amount I ate, the time I finished eating, next time I ate, giving fasting time) and on and on… a daily journal, because you cannot remember details on more than a daily basis
PS Dr Berry I am battling prostate cancer and you have changed my life. I so appreciate you !
If you only eat meat once or twice a week, you definitely have a chance of getting diabetes because you are filling the other days with pizza, pasta and high processed carbs
My father smoked 5 packs a day and ate nothing but meat, ice cream(A big soup bowl full very single night) and occasionally iceberg lettuce and broccoli crowns. He also drank 3-5 pots, not cups, of coffee with cream and sugar. He developed lung cancer in his mid 70s, but it was very slow growing and he lived with it (no treatment) until the age of 84. Here's the interesting thing, my mother cooked 95% of their meals from scratch until she was in her early 70s, then slowly switched to ultra processed food because she was tired of cooking. She developed stomach cancer at the same time as my father did lung cancer (She was also a smoker, a pack a day and drank 2-3 pots of black coffee daily, NEVER drank plain water.), also lived to 84, no treatment. My Old World grandparents always had large amounts of meat at every meal, all lived well into old age. Two of my siblings have died early of cancer, both were into vegetarian/fad diets and ate very little meat. Things that make you go hhhhmmmm.
YES! I love your comment here! And I think your observations/ conclusions are right on point! I went “carnivore” in Jan of 2023… did it as a 30 day test, still doing it 10 months later. This way of eating has improved my life phenomenally… while not absolutely perfectly either.
I think that some of the “vices” of life [like smoking, drinking, etc] become a LOT less dangerous…IF we are not beating the SHIT out of our immune systems with carbs and seed oils… and while this seems to be becoming common knowledge [amongst the low card crowd] I’m not convinced we REALLY understand the [real] reasons [the actual physiology] as to why [carbs and seed oils] are SO detrimental. Yes, I know the laundry list of “whys”: “ the Randell cycle’, “ inflammation’, etc… but I think we are yet to learn the Full reasons??
My 64 year old friend, obese, went on carnivore. I thought she was nuts. Now she looks vibrant, younger, energetic, and has lost 70 pounds! There is something to this for sure!
It´s Insulin that is the big baddie..
Inflammation too, apparently
in the past month i have eaten approximately 20 pounds of beef. The rest of the month would be filled in with chicken eggs and bacon. I am a 57 yr old female gluten free for 10 years currently mostly carnivore for 3 years. 115 pounds and a size 1 i’m good
instantly reducing calories and also processed foods will do that, doesn't mean "carnivore" did it.
@@Brukner841sounds like you need to go eat some Cake...!
I am starting the Carnivore diet today, and I have an A1C of 5.7 currently. I will definitely get back to you in a few weeks with an updated score after eating bacon, eggs and beef. Thanks for the videos.
Okay so how’s it going? I’m thinking about trying this I drink raw milk in my coffee every morning that will be tough
Any update?
I’m 26 and sitting at the hospital about to meet our second baby and one of my biggest regrets is not starting full carnivore when I first saw your videos years back when you first started on it.
I’m 5’11” and was 280 lbs on 7/27 and in less than 3 months I’m down 40 lbs and still going. I initially was only going to try it for a month and I had a “cheat meal” at chipotle after a few weeks and felt terrible for 4 days. It opened my eyes to the aches, pains, depression and overall bad mental and physical health I was living with. Honestly I’m feeling so good just eating 1-2 pounds of ribeye a day I don’t think I’ll ever go back to the processed garbage us Americans call “balanced diet”. Thank you for improving my health
I would give anything to have had this information back when I was 26! Instead I spent a lifetime eating the standard American diet. I'm a little salty about that :D Now I've been ketovore 18 months, and will never go back to carbs. Congrats on the new little one!!!!!
Congratulations on the new baby! ❤
Make sure to get plenty of fat, don't go too lean!
Congratulations on your new baby! Congratulations on the new healthy lifestyle too.
What did you OB/GYN say??? I'm 5'11" and weighed 220 pounds until I was 7 months along...and was eating whatever I wanted. He thought I was NOT eating because I wasn't gaining weight...and shared later that he was going to put me in the hospital had I not gained weight (2 pounds) with that visit. In all, I gained 24 pounds total at delivery...and my daughter is now 29 and 6'2".
I think had I gone carnivore/ketovore during pregnancy, I would have lost weight--and I had the weight to lose--and my OB/GYN would have lost his mind!!!
Sadly, I hadn't known about keto/carnivore back then...but I do now!!!
Read that study two days ago and had to laugh out loud for a good couple minutes, and then I cried for the health of the average person who doesn’t understand the complexities of scientific studies and human physiology. Good to see Dr. Barry respond so quickly to new data being published.
Even NPR is sharing it. Am so disappointed
It's truly astounding something like this is published by Harvard. A study of such pour quality. Harvard used to be a prestigious university.
Key word is "use to be"
Sorry to be so gloomy, but colleges are now for indoctrination instead of education.
Does not surprise me at all. Just follow the “new world order” crap they are trying to do. Harvard USED to be credible. Not anymore. Eat bugs / plants they say. Hoe about the F-D-A and the food pyramid that is now recommended. Have you seen it? It’s a disgrace. Totally incorrect information provided. This was a Hit Piece that has sadly gotten worldwide attention. Total miss information is what this “study” is about. Show’s us that we are up against a destructive plan to change us to what THEY want.😢😮
It's come to be expected as they are part of the control complex operated by people where a profit before people mindset has become their calling card. The truth is always hidden in what is excluded in the data.
Harvard used to be believable but now you know better. Take that mindset and look critically at other things touted under that name in the past.
20+ years of being an uncontrolled T2D, the last 5 months on a diet with less than 20g of carbs (strict keto because of diabetic medication, or I would have gone full carnivore) have been amazing!
In July 23' my A1C was 14, and now, on Nov 23' A1C is at 5.6. Triglycerides in July was 262, now it was at 84.
Question: If glucose raises your triglycerides levels and your body is unable to process fiber. Why would a diabetic want to eat vegetables? They are just sugar and fiber.
Protein is needed to heal muscles, organs, and lower A1C. Why wouldn't a diabetic want to eat more meat?
Thank you, Dr. Berry! Just yesterday, this was brought up on the Atlantic TV news health section…and I’m shaking my head…knowing there are folks who will “echo the lie” once again…
It’s propaganda.
They are not reporters. They are repeaters.
My husband has been a carnivore all his life...He has never been a diabetic, but the medical profession has tried to convince him that he's pre-diabetic and even put it in his med records...He has never shown any sign of diabetes..He's as healthy as an Ox!!😊....At 77 his BP is 110/60...He lift weights, and walks 2 to 3 miles a day....
What was his A1C when the docs were telling him he was pre-diabetic?
I'm told I'm pre diabetes
@lindajane8962 Not sure, will ask him, but funny his heart doctor hasn't thought he was pre diabetic..
Careful! Careful! Careful! We are only talking about red meat specifically here!. I gave myself diabetes on carnivore / zerocarb about 3 years ago when I started out, so it can happen! I felt like I wasn't adapting and took Stephanie Keto's Pearson's advice to eat 200g of fat a day minimum and everyone was saying 'Fat doesn't make you fat' but calorie wise, I only needed 100g to meet my calories needs. My blood sugar was fine for 6 months so I stopped checking it but it's this simple, if you overeat calories you will develop diabetes. You don't get a blood sugar spikes but too much fat will raise your baseline blood glucose levels the following day. After about 1 year, I found myself craving more and more food and I developed slow wound healing a side effect of being diabetic. Anyhow, my resting blood sugar in the morning was now 7.3. Of course I tackle this in a few ways, took a break and got my A1C at 5.2, I'm carnivore on and off now. A few things may have contributed, I was also experimenting with high saturated fat intake and I think the constantly high blood sugar led to leptin resistance due to the raised insulin and it made me actually eat more, I went from eating typically 1800 calorie to 4600 calories, some people say they cant eat fat, I didn't have that satiation and yes I only put weight around the mid section.
I had exactly the same experience. I was determined to make this carnivore diet work in order to heal autoimmune and anxiety disorder. Began at 118 lbs, my normal weight for many years Age 65 female. Kept pushing forward fat from media advice . Total compliance. Now I am carrying 15 extra pounds. No it is not muscle. Belly and thigh fat. Energy very low. Lipids became horrible. APOb just under 200. I continue on keto but my diet is now fish olive oil avocado nuts flaxseed. Herbs. Lots of greens. Not the way I wanted it to turn out. I am also MTHFR. FH. I'm sorry but I believe many people do badly on this diet
As a type 2 diabetes patient for 20 years, my A1C went up over the years until it reached 11.2. On March 24, 2023 I started eating a carnivore way of eating. Since the. I have REDUCED my A1C to 6.4 in just a few short months. I carefully track my intake and you can come do a test on me and KNOW how much meat, carbs and fats I ate during that time to achieve that amazing level of reduction. I hope
To have kicked diabetes to the curb by my next set of labs. If not it will be the net one
Congratulations 🎉
Hello Dr Berry, wishing you well! I got diagnosed with pre diabetes over a year ago now. I followed the NHS guidelines and help from Oviva NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme. Well I am still pre diabetic, today in a long time my sugar levels spiked because I eat lots of chocolate last night because I am bored of not being able to eat what I want!! I have just been to the supermarket and brought some chicken breasts and eggs which I am going to eat over the next week to see if this will make me feel better plus go down the gym on the treadmill and exercise the bike again! I will still eat for breakfast blueberries with my weetbix and see if this will make a difference! I am fed up with being pre diabetic not knowing what I should eat because all the labels are red and orange with not many green labels. It stressful and sets my anxiety off. I will let you know how I get on and will leave another message on this video for you. Best wishes, Andy from the uk
I had an A1c of 6.5 in 2022 while on Keto and eating Keto products. Started carnivore November 2022, down to 6.0 in June 2023 now in October my A1c is 5.7, all without medication. I have learned so much from your videos. Thank you!
The first thing I thought of when I heard of this "study" was my own habits -- and the habits of everyone else I have ever known -- when eating red meat over 60 years. Most of the time, it meant eating hamburgers with buns and fries. Other times, it was a steak with a nice, big baked potato -- and maybe an ear of corn. Occasionally, it was beef stew, with potatoes, carrots, peas, and flour-thickened gravy. Then there were all those biscuits-and-sausage gravy breakfasts... All-beef hot dogs on buns... Roast beef or Italian beef sandwiches on either Kaiser or French rolls, almost always accompanied by fries... Salisbury steaks with mashed potatoes and flour-thickened gravy... Chicken fried steaks with mashed potatoes and flour -thickened gravy... Chinese or Mongolian beef dishes with rice or noodles... Lasagna or some other pasta with seasoned ground beef... These are just off the top of my head; I could go on and I am sure that other people could easily add to these. Also, while I have been drinking sugar-free sodas for many years, many people wash down all those carbohydrates with even more, in the form of sugary sodas or juices. The bottom line is that this Harvard "study" is a joke. What's really sad is that many people will take it at face value instead of thinking it through. (My wife did; I had to educate her.). Please, people, educate those you can, for their benefit.
The biggest red flags in this study beyond the obvious 4 year guessing game is the design of the groups they used. They included "plant based with low sugar" as a cohort, without including an "animal based with low sugar" cohort. They include no quantification or definition for what "animal based" even means. None whatsoever. It is intentionally designed to compare the "healthiest" low carb vegan against those consuming the SAD (standard American diet). Right in their own results, they show that the low carb vegan is healthier than the standard vegan 😂. That's enough to let people know that it's always been the carbs. So red meat not the issue, as has been shown in countless reliable studies.
the forgot 'no sugar, no carbs, no chemicals, no drugs, no alcohol' so the fake results are immaterial even were they not fake.
Has anyone seen the fat vs skinny series in the uk. They ask people to log what they eat at the start then have a nutritionist actually watch them and show that people are generally very bad at tracking what they eat.
Same thing with the anti-meat studies that came out of Harvard a few years back.
I've for first time have hi A1c 9.5. MD says I'm diabetic, not type two. She mentioned nothing about diet, carbs, just put me on metformin. I'm 65 and I ain't gonna lose a foot. I intend to follow you sir.
Going Keto brought all my numbers to a normal level. When I was a vegan for five years weight, cholesterol, blood sugar, bone density, blood pressure, all went bad. Well, when my doctor called me to say I needed to reduce my consumption of red meat snd exercise more I laughed and asked how a vegan reduces red meat in their diet. I started eating meat again and reducing sugars, grains, and starchy vegetables. Blood panels are now much, much better.
I love that 😂😂
@hopenhomesteadingig1860 Yes. I knew she was just spouting the party line because I had told her I was vegan. And, every conventional doctor I go to spouts the same stuff, regardless of when the went through medical school. 😳
I started this diet two weeks ago today. I’m 72 years old. Have lost six pounds. I had a really hard time walking due to bone on bone. Needing total knee replacement surgery. After just one week on this diet I noticed being able to walk better. My blood pressure is also down. I’ve never felt this good on other diets. 💕
90% of my diet is red meat and I have never felt so good in my life. Since I switched to eating carnivore from a WFPB diet, I have reversed my prediabetes, my autoimmune conditions, all my pain is gone, depression and anxiety is gone, and my energy is high and steady all day long. When I cut out the carbs and processed junk, my health did a 180. I don't need a "study" to tell me the carbs caused my weight gain and ill health. Meat heals.
I’m 55 - I have been a yo-yo dieter all my life (until now 😊 ) and overweight for most of it.
However, I’ve always eaten a lot of meat, and I’m sure that has protected me from all major illnesses including diabetes. The amount of sugar I was consuming daily was ridiculous…I can only assume that the amount of meat I also had, counteracted it.
I started keto in late February- went full carnivore in June. I’ll never go back to eating anything else.
Thanks for your knowledge and information Dr Berry.
After becoming a T2 diabetic, I tried the "healthy balanced diet" that the ADA recommends for diabetics. My diabetes actually got worse. I had to increase the insulin dosage by 3x, and Metformin dosages by 2x over the 6 months I followed it.. I also gained 5 lbs. I went carnivore and eating mostly red meat, my A1C went from 10.1 to 5.6, and I was able to get off not only my diabetes meds, but ALL my prescribed meds. I feel better now at age 64 than I've felt in as long as I can remember. I'm able to now fit in a 32" waist size pants, which has never happened in my entire adult life. Actually, the 32" pants are a little loose fitting.
YES!!! ADA diet pushes pre-diabetic people into R2D, and keeps those with T2D stuck there! I think the decision-makers at ADA know full well what they are doing. It is the worst crime I’ve ever seen
Thank you Dr Ken, as always you’re bang on! These articles are absolute rubbish, it’s actually the opposite!
I’m a carnivore of a year now and I’m healthier than I’ve ever been! My weight has reduced and I haven’t had a cold or any health problems since. I’m a physio in the UK and I recommend this diet to so many of my patients that are diabetic, pre diabetic or have cancer or any autoimmune problems, skin conditions, the list is endless, and they are all recovering from there diseases and problems. I have to say that I’m taking a chance in recommending this but I don’t care, I can’t stay quite now that I know the truth.
I thank you for all your work and for introducing me to the proper human being diet! God bless you! ❤
I agree with your analysis 100 %. I’m one of those nurses on those studies. Some of the questions asked what you have eaten years ago. Who can remember that accurately? And yes, Dr. Willet is a proponent of the plant based diet. I just dismissed these conclusions out of hand.
"Moderation seems to be the key."

Consider Dr. Robert Haas' book, Eat to Win, "moderate" quantity of meat plan.

Hard aye❤️💯 me and my family on low carb diet for more than 10 months.. blood work looks fantastic.. except LDL. Eat meat💪💪
Right! Its really hard to know what to believe when one dr. Says this & another says that🙄😏 but I've heard nothing but Good Things about keto.
Fantastic, except the part that will kill you
If your LDL is high , it's also fantastic ... and you should be proud of it... Studies shows that higher LDL people live longer !!

My A1C before Carnivore was 6.7. Now it's 4.9. These people are crazy!!! Thanks Dr. Berry
They are evil.
I have been on a ketovore/carnivore "diet" since April of this year. My a1-C was 6.8 when I started. It's now 4.8. I weighed 318 lbs when I started. I'm at 233 today.
Despite the clout Harvard has in the science community, the absolute results of common sense people who are eating a carnivore lifestyle has started a revolution. People are getting healthier and needing less or no pharmaceuticals. You simply can’t deny the results people are experiencing eating red meat. Thank God for people like Dr. Berry who is shining a bright light on the facts.
It does seem
Like if you follow the $- or the pursuit of it….. at the end you will find the pharmaceutical companies, big AG and ongoing medical complex. They all benefit from us being sick, medicated and needing them.
@@lilareed2320 You’re absolutely right. I’m pretty old and in years past, people would go to jail if they crossed these “do harm for profit” ethical lines. Today it is just normal. Everything going on in “big” food, medicine, pharma, is criminal but no one with authority is prosecuting because the money is flowing to the right people.
You said it. Pharmaceuticals. I wouldn’t be surprised to find that they funded this study to some degree.
world needs more doctors like you, that really care about people health and turn on the light in the room from the dark we were induced for some many decades. Thank you Dr. Berry for what you do to educate us for actual health knowledge, god bless!
I hardly ever visit a doctor and take zero medication but if doctor Berry was my doctor, I would go see him every week just to ask questions and get the right answers.
I became a carnivore, thanks to your guidance Dr Berry, on May 29th, and have lowered my a1c from 8.7 to 6.0, after having been a diabetic for 12 years. I still have a ways to go, but I learned from you that it was within my reach. When I was diagnosed, it was with the understanding that I could slow the progression, but not reverse this dreadful disease. I am determined to become non diabetic by the new year! By the way, I am 74 years old. Thank you and Neisha for all you do, and for giving me the courage and the information to regain my health!!
You're already not diabetic. With an A1C of 6.0, your doctor wouldn't diagnose you with T2D.
@@RussellNelson I know that, but in my mind it’s not official until I’m out of the prediabetic range as well. Old habits die hard, ya know, and I’ve had the mindset of being diabetic for 12 years or more. My mind is trying to catch up lol.
@@RussellNelsonvery true, but Dr. Berry has covered how important it is for your organs, to set a goal of low to mid 5 for AIC. You can't rely on the mainstream medical ranges for many things. Another example is thyroid ranges-not accurate.
Hey Doc, I been on Low carb high fat, Keto and now Carnivore 7 years. Took a good 3 months to lose my excess weight and I feel great. Lost nearly 4 stone. I have a butter coffee first off.. then 5 eggs for lunch with mayo and a steak with an egg and some sauerkraut most evenings. No Diabetes for me! ;)
I started at 270 pounds 6 months ago.. I am down 70 pounds and am so happy that I have made this life change at the age of 59 years old.. my A1C is down to 4.9 from 8..I will not go back to the old life..thank you.
My A1c was 13% in 2020. I started a very low carb ketogenic diet in March, 2022 and brought my A1c down to 8%. I transitioned to a carnivore diet on March 13, 2023, and now my a1c (as of July 3, 2023) is 5.8%. I'm no longer diabetic. If I get my A1c down another 1/10th of a percent, I won't even be "pre-diabetic" . I eat 1-2lbs of mostly red meat every day.
From 13% to 5.8%. At an A1c of 13%, there is a lot of organ damage, including arteries. I attribute this to my cardiovascular disease, my non-alcholic fatty liver disease.
*before* I started a ketogenic diet (3/2022) , and later carnivore (3/2023), I had two strokes and a heart attack WHILE they were putting stents in. I was paralyzed on my right side, and had Broca's aphasia. I could not speak/read/write. I am quite certain that going on a ketogenic diet, the ketones helped my brain/nerves recover. I was able to go back to work (hi tech, very cerebral job) within two months.
Being a carnivore with lots of intermittent fasting and exercize, I lost 25 lbs, reversed my fatty enlarged liver, reversed my pre-diabetes and normalized my bp.
The fasting is what did it..
Thank you Dr Berry for a clearer understanding of these researchers. Since being on the carnivore diet, my lab work improved in all areas and have lost over 35 pounds and still dropping.
HBA1C was 107 (UK). 6 months later, HBA1C at 43. Meat, eggs, fish and cheese was my diet. Reversed type 2 and feel Soooooooooo much better, younger and ready to live another 40 years. Ray - UK - 66 yrs old.
Thanks for your analysis Dr. Berry. The more "THEY" attack Carnivore and Keto the more you know YOU'RE ON THE RIGHT TRACK! Blessings to you for all you do to help others GET HEALTHY.
Keto was designed as a diet for Epileptics, so there is a lot of medical benifit to it. I'm an Epileptic so I have experience with keto. I do t know fo much about the carnavor diet so I can't speak to that one though.
You can have a KETO diet but eat chicken, turkey, pork, fish instead of beef... keto isn't red meat exclusive...
@@PhunkieZero why would anyone not want to eat red meat ? No thanks
66uik7k😢😮🎉TV
@@PhunkieZeroneither is carnivore
Thank you for this analysis. The media reports and tag lines made no sense to my reality. I have been living a carnivore based diet for 3 years and my blood panel has only improved. The outcome of my diet is the opposite of this study. Thanks again for all you do, Dr. Barry. Spot on rebuttal.
The Standard American Diet helped me develop Type 2 Diabetes, Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma, low-grade cancer detected in my very angry appendix and aggravated my Hidradenitis Suppurativa. On the other hand, Carnivore has reversed my Type 2 Diabetes, lowered my weight significantly and reduced my Hidradenitis flare ups to the lowest levels of my life! I'll stay Carnivore for the rest my life, thank you! Keep doing what you're doing Dr. Berry. Your words and help are invaluable.
Well I have been following one of your videos on a no carb no sugar diet as part of my eating habits and I live now on high protein and a what I like to think is a semi keto diet. I have been eating red meat such as beef and pork along with a ton of cruciferous and no carb vegetables and I have lost now 3Kg which for me is a miracle because I am 76 years old and my metabolism has in my mind slowed down from what it was a few year ago. Of course I do 2x40 minutes walk at 4km per hour followed with a 70 pull ups with 4 Kg dumbbells which has improved my strength and ability to do daily things such as shopping or some garden jobs. I am also just been started on a medication called Jardiance which is used for dealing with one's blood glucose levels and I am taking for not that exact reason but to improve my hearts condition and I shall be interested in what happens with my weight because of it too. As for my blood glucose levels now I am steady at around 5.0 - 5.5mmols which is just that and as you say Ken eating red meat has had no effect on my blood glucose levels let alone my general health.
My start was asking my doctor for years for nutritional guidance or advice. His answer was always your blood test looks fine. I finally got mad after being bedridden and begging him for help for 3 years. I told him there is either something wrong with the test or your test does not look for whatever was killing me. I bought 1 hard cover book and one pdf about blood tests that you wrote. I wanted to try with his support. He said the blood test is too expensive and it is unnecessary. I called my insurance, my cost was the same. To tell me my blood test is unnecessary after I did everything he asked is unforgivable. It must be it was necessary for me to have zero quality of life bedridden. I lost 60 pounds in the first 60 days. I lost 100.8 pounds in 179 days. Total loss now 156 pounds. I feel better than I have in 40 years. What does anyone have to lose by trying your own little study? I thank Makaila Peterson who got me to you❤❤❤❤
You go, girl! I'm proud of you!
That is disgusting. I'm so sorry to hear how badly you were treated.
Wow, that is incredible! Congratulations! What an amazing journey!
That was your fault for not firing your damn Dr!! You didn’t have to stay with him for that many years!! God helps those who help themselves!!
@@Knowledge-b6o It must be God has his own plan for me. It was not only my primary care doctor, there were many professionals as well. I had 7 surgeries on my legs alone. I had a broken back and spent 9 months in a full body cast. I had to learn how to walk all over again. I have been in a hospital bed, wheelchair, walker, cane and now use none. I have been to the wound center and the Lymphedema specialist who took thousands of dollars having my legs professionally wrapped and thousands more on cremes, prescription and over the counter. I had open wounds for over a year and a half. By praying I stopped all prescriptions. My wife made beef tallow to try on my legs. They healed and have no more swelling..A different doctor offered to put me on palliative care until I die. At 66 I can run circles around 30 year olds. I am working again. I fired all doctors. I feel great. I never got C@VID when my wife did. I never wore a virtue signalling mask. I never took the experimental g@ne th@rapy jab. Common sense is a rarity today.
My triglycerides in one year went from 163 down to 110 and my glucose was 97 down from 106.
I have been eating a carnivore diet since 2010 and the last time I checked my cholesterol my trigs were 47 and my HDL was 91. My cholesterol has pretty much stayed exactly the same since 2010. It doesn't really change much at all.
Dr Berry, thank you SO much for addressing this!! I saw this article in the dailymail and forwarded to my husband the other day. We were both outraged and sickened at the message it was giving out to lay people who have no idea about the carnivore diet and its benefits! I hope your insightful video reaches many many people ❤
I had diabetes type 2 a year ago. I started the carnivore diet and I was eating steak five nights a week and chicken two nights a week. I always eat my steak medium rare. Within 2 weeks of starting the carnivore diet, I started having hypoglycemic attacks and had to be taken off the metformin at the 30-day mark I had labs done and my A1C went from an 8.3 to a 6.1. I did the carnivore diet for 4 months. My A1C is now 4.9 and I no longer have diabetes type 2. They can keep their studies and leave the red meat for those of us who want it.
I Was 12,5 Diabetes Patient. Noone told me yet how much meat to eat...130g a day? 230g a day? More? Less? No doctor would tell
My husband and I (both 72) are so much more healthy than we were 10, 20, 30 etc years ago. Both Ketovore and feeling great. Thank you so much Dr B for what you and Neisha do!! We are all so blessed to have you both fighting for us and our world of ignorance. But I have to run now. Gotta get to the store for some more beef!!! This video made me hungry for a steak! 🤣
My blood sugar dropped a lot with the carnivore diet. However, my cholesterol and especially LDL went WAY up!! Also, with the absence of sugar in my diet I felt like the Incredible Hulk ready to punch a hole in the wall.
Yeah I ditched the sugars a couple years ago so now I can eat like a horse and never gain weight.
Lipoproteins (HDL and LDL) are our bodies fat transport system. If a person switches their diet from a low-fat high-carbohydrate diet to a low-carbohydrate high-fat diet, one should expect one’s lipoprotein levels to increase as well.
Hi! After being diagnosed with acanthosis nigricans and prediabetes, I went on a carnivore diet for a while and then continued with keto. My HbA1c went to 4.9, my HDL and LDL were at a normal range, and triglycerides were also quite low, but I work out a lot. If I were you, I would increase my physical activity.
@@patrickoneill1341 it’s still crazy to see them go up by 40-50 points a year. I went from sub 100 to 193 in less than two years. But all my other health metrics went down and I feel damn good. I’m not really concerned anymore after listening to them say people with high cholesterol live as long as those without. I go to south east Asia and get a full yearly check up. I’m in Thailand and just did my yearly on my 45th birthday. Everything looked really good except my cholesterol. I was concerned about my blood sugar and kidneys, liver, lungs etc and they are all perfectly healthy. Even after decades of alcohol abuse and cigarette smoking.
Who pay for these studies.....?!
Thank you for providing accurate information on this subject. I REVERSED type 2 diabetes because I stopped eating carbs. Thanks Dr. Berry!
but did u go carnivore too?
@@ritevibewell if you stop eating carbs completely the only diet you can be on is carnivore, right?
You didn’t reverse anything, you symptoms are in remission because there’s nothing to spike your blood sugar or cause insulin levels to increase. I bet a banana or a peice of bread would bring you to your knees. That’s not reversal it’s remission of symptoms.
But hey not everyone has brain cells and common sense! 🤷♀️
I am 6'8", 360lbs, not obese, not a smoker or drinker, former semi pro powerlifter and 3 sport athlete. I have eaten 2 ribeyes every day for 30 years, and when the local German restaurant held prime rib nights on Friday and Saturday, all you could eat for 25 bucks, and I would eat 8-10 one pound slabs. I get my blood work panels twice a year, 89 fasting glucose, 4.7 a1c, excellent triglycerides, low blood lipids and 117/76 BP. All of that went to shit during covid, no sit down meals, truckstops only offered hot case fried foods and my blood panels show from 2020-2023, cholesterol went bad, lipids went up, a1c went to 5.5,etc.
30 yrs in excellent health and I suffered a massive heart attack in October 2023, this devastated my life. I now live with the mindset of "if I can't eat a good meal of red meat than I will not eat until I can". So I just fast until I get red meat in a healthy form, no hot case hamburgers, 😂
Eating red meat got rid of Type2, dropped 55lbs since 1/1/23 @ age 70, I have less arthritis pain, and I keep up with my 4 yr old great grandson. Oh and I’m no longer constipated for the first time in my life!! Thank you so so much Dr. Berry and Neisha for my good health 💜

Did you do that with exercise or no exercise?
@@felixconlon7049 With no exercise. I cut out all sugar and carbs and lost 30lbs in 6 weeks. I have been on blood pressure meds for 2.5 yrs and reverse it in 2 months.
These pronouncements from old studies come up regularly in the press. The headline is always "Direct Causality". But, a couple that I have seen over the years admitted at the end of the piece that those that ate the most red meat also... smoked more, drank more alcohol, exercised less. And although the headline grouped "red and processed" meat equally, the content showed the detrimental result were few in red meat and mainly in the processed meat.
I never thought my doctor turning me on to channels like yours, Dr. Tro, and The Big Fat Surprise would lead me to, not only switching my diet to a carnivore diet, but also opening my eyes to how much manipulation and misinformation there is when it comes to mainstream media. Really changed my mindset in multiple ways

Oh man - I couldn't wait for you to address this new "study".
Thank you Dr. Berry. When I heard this on tv, I was so hoping you would make a vid and set the real facts to all. Have been carnivore/ketovore for past year. I feel good, no brain fog. Thank you for sharing so much education, and your wonderful common sense❤
I'm a text book case of the cause of T2. #1, I was pre-diabetic for years and not one Dr ever caught that. I ate whatever I wanted, drank a lot of full sugar soda, bread, pasta, potatoes and all the wrong fats (I bought the BS on fats). While the pounds were added, no Dr asked me what I ate, my exercise regime or family history, especially current family illnesses. AND I was being treated by the world famous Mayo clinicians. I still read totally WRONG info on their website. It's no wonder I'm where I am right now. Im treating myself now with Keto and it's the only success I've had in decades and it was rapid. I'm wearing clothes I packed away 15 yrs ago because everything was too tight. Now guess what! Now I'll have get some new stuff as it's all getting annoying loose fitting! Really hard to "take in" jeans❤
I have been eating a carnivore diet since 2010 and I don't have diabetes. In fact, every time I check my blood glucose level it's in the low 70's. My ketone levels are usually somewhere between 1 and 2.
5 yrs on Keto, but we focus more on our meat intake. I have a chuck roast on the smoker now, 😊 I will serve a vegetable of some sort. My husband loves eating this way too, so that's helped.
I had dealt with autoimmune issues since I was in my mid twenties. I'm 58 now. Dealt with so many over lapping conditions and having no idea why. Even when I was told by Dr's it was autoimmune diseases like Hosimotes and tendion issues and inflammation, I still didn't understand anything about it, so much to tell but the point is, I'm 💯 better now because of going outside the box and searching for answers. I'm so very thankful for all the help from Dr.Berry and Naisha, as well as many others have given. The support has been endless.
I'm not only at a healthy weight, my mind is much clearer, my emotions are stable unless someone is trying to bring drama then they see how strong I am. I run like heck!
But seriously keto did save my life. I dont go off because in the past when I did, it all came right back!
My family have benefited greatly from my example, which makes a mama proud. My grand children are on board as well! ❤ One day at a time...we got this! Oh and we eat lots of red meat. Perfect blood work every year!😊🎉🎉
Loved the video, doc! I'm an FP in Arizona. Thank you for exposing this- I've already had some good discussions with patients about this study and why I thought it was incorrect. To be honest, a study like this is dangerous. It also reinforces the good idea that just because someone is from Harvard doesn't mean that they are smart. Thanks, again.
I live in Chandler and am looking for a new doctor. Any suggestions, I'm carnivore. Appreciate it!
@@johngalt5181you look for keto doctors in your area.
It’s also dangerous if they don’t, if you know what I mean
@@madie5916not sure I understand the question/statement???
They're smart. They maximize the payments they get from drug companies.
In the last few months I’ve been doing the carnivore diet and just recently I’ve been having some very concerning symptoms. Heart palpitations and irregular heart beats, strange sensations in the stomach, tightness in the left side of the chest, tingling in my left arm, chronic constipation. I’ve never had symptoms like this before but it’s lead me to immediately halt my carnivore diet. I was very strict with it. Eating only grass fed beef, liver, salt, and added beef tallow for that extra fat. I was so hopeful for this diet to work for me and I’m at a loss for why I ended up having such horrible symptoms from it.
@joelleo396. Consume a balanced diet. After I got back home from work today, I had a cheeseburger 🍔 , and a burrito 🌯, loaded up with onions 🌰.
I add sour cream on both, burgers and burritos. Ketchup is added on my cheeseburgers. I then had a cucumber. 🥒 They are a neat nifty easy to eat, quick to consume vegetable. They Really help to balance things out. Last night I had a nice batch of romaine lettuce, with plenty of Newman's oil & vinegar dressing. This is stuff that humans are meant to consume, for the sake of balancing our dietary intake. Yes, meat 🍖 is Good, and Most Certainly has it's place, but balance is Crucial for human beings to realize, emphasize, and utilize. We are Omnivores, not exclusively Carnivores. That's Cats, Lions, and Tigers, with they're VERY Short intestinal tracts. We have Very VERY Long intestinal tracts in comparison. Our Creator made it that way, and also in the Good Book 📖 it clearly emphatically emphasizes, that, Too Much Meat Bringeth Sickness. And Bread 🍞 strengthens the Heart. The Proper Good Quality Bread of course. And Crisp-Bread is another Healthy Bread, which will keep for a Long Time, even at Room Temperature, unlike standard bread. Apples 🍎 are Great for staying regular. Bananas 🍌 too. And obviously Prunes are a Great American Classic for providing Great Constipation Relief/Digestive Repair. Balance Balance Balance !!! We're Not Lions !!! They Can't get Colon Cancer, but Many amongst our Human Species Do !!! And it's from improper dietary imbalances..!!!
Maybe you ate too much liver! Just have it once in a while, not too frequently!
Why are you even on this channel?
You're opposite of everything this doctor has said. Good bye and good luck.😏
I'm only in 43 days and have elevated heart rate and BP, I heard this is normal while your body detoxes. I'm sticking with it and see how it goes. I'm hopeful that this will be a lifestyle change for me. I feel good otherwise.
I am a Ketovore and have beat my T2 diabetes and lost 75lbs and have good lab work. Thanks Dr Berry keep up the great work.
12 weeks on Carnivore has kept my blood sugars under wonderful control the whole time.
Sunday, my daughter did a bunch of baking, so I unfortunately stumbled off my diet for the day. By dinnertime, my blood sugar was 240, so I pulled it back together and got back on the diet. By bedtime, it was 166, then 124 in the morning. Now it's back below 100.
Before doing this diet, my sugar would have soared past 300 and stayed up for days. Carnivore is not only keeping my sugars down, but it's also improving my insulin response.
I discussed your video with a friend who is diabetic. She laughed and laughed about this because she knows better. She is a huge proponent of eating meat and it's helped her dramatically. Her A1C is really low. I'm so happy for her, and I know she's doing the right thing. Blessings to you Dr. Berry
"Moderation seems to be the key."
Jimmy Buffett Song line from Barometer Soup.
Consider Dr. Robert Haas' book, Eat to Win, "moderate" quantity of meat plan.
“Sail the main course in a simple sturdy craft. Keep her well stocked with short stories and long laughs. Go fast enough to get there but slow enough to see. Moderation seems to be the key.” ― Jimmy Buffett
you people are delusional, and deep down, you know you can't just eat a lot of meat and be thriving.
@@johnnyjericho8472 LOL
That doesn't even make sense... She's diabetic, but her A1c is really low? She laughed and laughed at the video because she knows better? That would imply that she disagrees with Dr. Berry.
@@Indydi it implies that she went on a mostly carnivore diet and her A1C has dramatically lowered. As we all know, if she goes back to her high carb, standard American diet, her A1C will climb. She was diabetic for years and is off all meds. She relates her diabetes to alcoholism. She said she was totally addicted to carbs, much like an alcoholic is addicted to alcohol, and if she goes back to her old ways of eating, she's going to repeat the cycle of diabetes. I probably could have explained her personal theory above because my implying wasn't clear.... but I figured it would be obvious. So sorry I was confusing. 😃
*I had very high blood sugar I only managed to improve my health when I found a WONDERFUL treatment,❤❤ if you want to know about it, I left the video in the comment reply*
"DlSCOVER THE NEW DM2 TREATMENT" is the name of the video
