Yesterday I described Amber as 'one of the leading thinkers of the low carb & carnivore field if not one of the leading figures'. There are others with greater apparent presence than her but few who have really thought about it to the degree she has. I have learned so much from her and love to revisit her stuff because I often find it makes me rethink (yet again) what I think I know.
The benefits are plentiful, but alas, not necessarily reflected in this speaker’s own story . Which thus begs the question of what we still need to learn about genetics/dna blueprint versus diet and lifestyle alone .
What a confirming pleasure to listen to such a clear, consicise, and reasoned thinker. Thanks for the introduction of a higher standard and the encouragement to my so-far limited ability to learn. This was a really useful use of my time.
Amber...you're the reason I went carnivore...back before all the youtube gurus showed up...and you're the only one I subscribe to. Thank God you're not like the rest of them. ❤
Here here!!! Brilliant presentation.... what every so called academic and scholar needs to understand... People in positions of power i.e. the WHO and the CDC need to understand this rather than just be authoritarian in their theories. Arrogant humility.... brilliant. I would term it purposeful humility... To know that you don't know and the more you know the more you realize you don't know is the secret to this.
Indeed . It seems we still have a long way to go , from proponents on ALL sides of this debate . It is the binaries that need to be bridged between all camps bc it appears Mother Nature is still puppeteering us mere mortals as we indulge our arrogance It is pretty evident that the protocol and knowledge isn’t reflected in this speaker’s own general health and well being & thus begs some pertinent questions as to whether our genetic lottery and DNA blueprint still determines more than we r yet prepared to acknowledge . Jordan P being another very poor poster child for benefits of carnivore . Echo chambers and binaries of any sort are not the answer and with the rise and reach of social media we are inundated by extremes
I really appreciate Amber's willingness to share. I remember when I first heard her speak 3 years ago about the benefits of high fat. I was floored!I immediately started searching for other presentations that Amber has made and watched them several times each. It's not that others haven't spoken about it, but when one does stumble upon a presentation on such a topic, in that moment, there is an opportunity for the speaker to make an impact, and she has delivered in spades for me! I took notes, I paused the videos and replayed them over and over just to be able to retain what she is presenting. Thank you! Besides, credentialism is a modern concept. Imagine if one had to only listen to the experts instead of considering mom and dad's advice or, the biggie, grandma's advice! LOL. Credentialism tends to diminish the importance of people's everyday lives and experiences as a way to gain wisdom and understanding and this is very manipulative. No one can convince me that 1000's of years of human wisdom and understanding can be put lower on the existential importance chart than those with the credentials.
There are plenty of clever people around who have not had the opportunity to gather credentials. You are what you say and do. That’s what we see. Well done Amber, an enlightened presentation. 👏🇦🇺
So glad I got to meet Dave and see Amber's talk in Bozeman in 2018. Both hugely influential, and both more conscientious as scientists than people with PhDs
Thank you Amber. I always liked the perspective from non medical professionals like Dave, Ivor, Tucker and you. You are the first that I heard talk about carnivore as I started it after 1 year on keto and it gave me greater insight.
Amber, thank you for all that you have contributed. I especially love your video on the lipivore. I hope and pray that you will find a way to heal whatever you are struggling with now. Perhaps the diet you followed as a child has created permanent problems. You are surrounded by people who would love to help you prosper in all ways.
Thanks Amber. Even though we never met, I know you since probably 2010, because according to the algorithms we have some mutual friends :) Anyway, it got me on the journey of learning about keto, carnivore and FHC and more.
“I think it’s not widely known how much contribution I made to that entire movement” - what a strange, meandering and solipsistic talk. Clearly an intelligent person who has been one (of many) important voices in this space, but the ego on display here is somewhat galling , and what does it serve, beyond status-seeking within this tiny community? And as has been pointed out in some of the other comments, she does not address the elephant in the room, which is that this way of eating didn’t prevent or address serious health problems. It’s like taking advice from a dentist with bad teeth, even if some of it may be decent advice
Of all the people speaking at low carb/keto conferences she is the one person least qualified to speak. I’m happy for her and her n of 1 conclusion she requires a carnivore diet but she shouldn’t be on a platform where she can influence people.

She always has great perspective. Such honesty is refreshing. A brilliant mind.
Amber is simply the best!🤩 Love her!! Thank you, Dave!
Give this woman an honorary PhD!
Thank you for this talk, Amber! Long ago, you were one of the first to help me understand the importance of animal fat. Grateful for your work.

Dave, THANKS for having Amber on! Amber, very enlightening, very impressive.
Thank you Amber & good on you to stand up for your works and efforts; you're greatly appreciated...
Amber is just so lovely ❤ thank you so much for your continued contributions in this space, amber!!
I always enjoy every presentation from Amber. She is so brilliant and has a truly scientific mind.
Amber...you're the reason I went carnivore...back before all the youtube gurus showed up...and you're the only one I subscribe to. Thank God you're not like the rest of them. ❤
Amber, your presentations are clear and very helpful. Thank you!❤
Glad you stepped into the spotlight to share and thank you for your work! It’s helped me tremendously mentally and physically.
❤ your brain ! You bring sooo much value to the carnivore/keto community!!
A lot of gems in this talk.

Amber ❤ Thank you so much for your presentation! Such humanity and humility ❤ Your work and humbleness is inspiring 🎉 Thank you thank you ❤❤❤

Thank you Amber,you were the first person to help me even think about Carnivore in 2019.❤️

Great presentation, thank you for showing us part of your journey. I great way to approach our learning and thinking.
wow fascinating how amber's insecurities have solidified some understanding. most impressive. i get it
Always interesting Amber. Great to get the biographical dimensions. 😮
Amber, I will be forever grateful for your work. Where I can follow your progress?
I went to Waterloo!
Thank you.
Fascinating person!

Perhaps, Amber, the book you were meant to write and share with humanity is more philosophical in content than scientific.😊
I would fund deuterium redox signaling study anytime. Still trying to get the funds though.
❤
University of Waterloo is the MIT of Canada. Wow.
It's depressing that this had to be done at all.
Called out Baker as a thief??

amber does not look good right now..
Does anyone know if she’s okay. I havent seen her in a few years and the change is dramatic. Wishing Amber (and all y’all) health and adventure.
She's been sick and never really recovered apparently. It started from some big infection afaik
at least she cured her "three years of chronic diarrhea" by eating potatoes.
Hmm. First comments here. Brigading perhaps?
Amber looks a bit dehydrated and perhaps has some issues with circadian rhythms. Quality sleep can sometimes be elusive!
Of all the people speaking at low carb/keto conferences she is the one person least qualified to speak. I’m happy for her and her n of 1 conclusion she requires a carnivore diet but she shouldn’t be on a platform where she can influence people.
You are absolutely wrong about this. Have you read her work?
Some of the dumbest people are qualified and some of the smartest are not.
You are right. Let's get somebody more qualified like Dean Irish or Layne Norton to talk...😊
@@ClassicJukeboxBand 😂😂😂
Amber's intelligence and humility is an inspiration, thanks so much for sharing.
