2 weeks carnivore so far a leap of faith. All the Adults in my family have Metabolic syndrome symptoms and no clue that something as radical as a carnivore lifestyle would benefit them. I will keep quiet and show by my results what is possible. A June vacation planed at the beach for us all. I hope 90 days carnivore will get noticed. If they want to know how the I drop the carnivore bombshell wish me success. Thanks Dr. Berry
I’m on month 5 of carnivore and I can tell you it’s 100% worth it. I’m down 40 lbs and I’m getting tons of compliments from people about how great I look. Your efforts will definitely be noticed 90 days from now.
Everyone will be skeptics and even against you until the results are apparent. Then some will still deny reality. Those people would prefer magic pills and lack the will power to succeed at much if anything.
I can not believe that you said that about a hysterectomy. My OBGYN told me that since I'm not having any children I didn't need my uterus, that that was the only purpose and to get a hysterectomy to get rid of heavy periods and pain. Unbelievable! I'm so glad you talk about these issues. I appreciate you so much you have no idea!!!!! and your wife Neisha too!
The problem with today's doctors began over a century ago with the Rockefeller family. They threw money at medical colleges in exchange for the Rockefellers having some of their own people on the colleges' boards of directors. But they also wanted medical colleges to focus on petroleum-based medicines, instead of natural cures. In the 1990s, doctors-in-training were given ego boosts telling them that they don't need to "listen" to patients. I noticed this behavioral shift in 1997 with younger, newer doctors. Dr. Blaylock also noticed this shift. In one anecdotal story, a nurse asked the resident doctor about nutrition to help a specific patient, but the doctor ridiculed her: "Oh, you're one of those!" As if nutrition had nothing to do with health, but toxic, petrochemical medicines were the only thing that could "help" patients. It's the *_Disease Maintenance_* paradigm established by people who cared more about profits and power than they did for relieving the suffering of their fellow man. They had *_cures_* outlawed. Even talking about cures became illegal in certain circumstances. Reference: *_Dumb Genius: How intelligence is sometimes its own worst enemy_*
You mention Dr. Blaylock. Were you referring to Alfred Blaylock of Johns Hopkins? That is the only one I know of so if there is another one of note regarding this topic please let me know. Thanks, Rod

Thanks for all the good info, Dr. B! I started this way of life last June and am down 101 lbs. in 9 months and 13 days!! Feeling like a million bucks just a few months before I turn 70. Never dreamed this was even possible! Fasted most weekends the first 6 months, but over the winter I mostly ate 2MAD and some OMAD. I also average over 4 miles of walking each day.
I’ve been doing it for over two years now and I’m 80…. I’m finding it difficult to do OMAD, but that’s about it. Until recently I had no problem with OMAD. I live alone and I think it’s the problem. I don’t have any carbs or sugar in my place so I’m not worried 🤜🤛

@@cearilindubhlaoi9507 The key for me is just not buying the carbs and filling my freezer and frig full of fatty meats and eggs and avocado and nuts. I eat a boatload of bacon these days, something I was afraid of for decades. It's so satisfying and delicious to me now! I was given a pineapple as a gift yesterday and it kept calling to me from the kitchen until I ate a bowl of it. Today I was up by 3 lbs., and while I know it's likely all water weight, I was not a happy camper. The fruit tasted like candy to me now, absolutely delicious. But, that's why i can't buy it (except strawberries and blackberries, which are low carb).
You’re not alone. I was keto for 2 years, have been carnivore now for 3 years and I still cannot be trusted around carbohydrates! It gets easier, but you’re an addict, I’m an addict, we’re all addicts! The easiest thing is to simply not buy carbohydrates, don’t have them in the house…I might want to eat them, but I don’t want them badly enough to go to the shops and get them 😆
Dr Berry you’re the best! I don’t know or speak Spanish but I am absolutely positive so many Spanish-speaking people will be thrilled to have your information made easily accessible to them. I am finding your information and encouragement so invaluable. As a newbie to carnivore I worry about protein to fat ratios and how much and what type of carbohydrates if any. You answer all those questions and more. Love this channel (and Neisha’s too)! 🌷. Edit: Forty days in and down 15 lbs. I’m quite happy with that progress and have no cravings which is miraculous.
Eat my bacon and eggs with real butter every morning. I also have your wonderful book. You are amazing. You have taught me so much. I’m 73. Take No prescription meds (and no gray hair either). No aches and pains. Thanks to you I take my Lugol’s iodine drops every morning too. I would never have known to do this.
@@chucksnevah2020 Did you reverse the grey hair? I've had it since my 30'S and I'm almost 70. Don't think I can change that regardless of how much bacon and eggs I eat.
@@Cocora22 I’ve never had gray hair though my sister, who is 68, did have quite a bit of gray until a couple years ago. Now she has none. She has had no junk food and has cut out all diet cokes. She drank at least two a day for several years. She eats nutritious food now and has lost several pounds too.
omad keto from day 1. Will be 3 months 4/9. Usually 21/3 but often 22/2. I never get hungry. Lost almost 30 lbs. Which has me weighing less than I did in high school. 70 year old male.
Thank you for doing a Spanish channel! My father is diabetic and mom has arthritis and they’re in desperate need of change but lack information on how to change their diet for ultimate health. I’ve been on keto since January 2022 and I’ve seen many changes in inflammation, migraines and more.Thank you for the info!
You are SO humble, SO genuine, SO caring , SO AUTHENTIC.... SO Truthful.... you are God Sent for this time in this world....As our world is CHANGING AND EVOLVING..... SO IS OUR DIET.... The truth is finally being EXPOSED.... and I LOVE how you are SO PASSIONATE ABOUT REACHING SO MANY PEOPLE TO BRING THEM THE TRUTH AND GET PERSONAL HEALING....... I THANK GOD for you in my prayers every night. I am a Cancer Survivor and have been Ketovore for 3 weeks and I am a CHANGED person. Wow...I cant believe how GREAT I feel.... God sent you to me and I will ALWAYS BE SO GRATEFUL TO YOU DR. BERRY..... An angel walking this earth....Your work is RAISING THE EARTHS VIBRATION!!!!!XOXOXOX
I quit smoking 17 years ago. One of the best decisions I made. So far, I have no bad affects from a long history of smoking except smoker’s asthma. Keto/carnivore does help that.
Catching the replay!💕Love all you and your wife and this community does! I went to the beach last week with none ketoers.And fell hard! But back on track &feeling great! I fast 15-16 hours and fest on Keto carnivore until 10 r 11. Love it!
Thank you for all you do Dr. Berry. I'm down 60 pounds in 10 months, and feeling so much better. I'm ready to start longer periods of fasting. I'll shoot for 20 hours of fasting per day all next week, and then start fasting every other day for a week, and then go back to eating two meals a day and see how I feel.
I was anemic according to my Doctor and gave me iron pills, instead I followed Dr. Berry advice instead, (liver 3 times a week) now is normal ☝️thank you
Thank you Dr Berry, I love your great advice. I'm feeling so much better and full of energy since I started eating the proper human diet a week ago. I truly enjoyed my steak, egg, bacon and butter, this morning. 😊Thank you and bless you Dr Berry. Hello from Melbourne, Australia 😊💙
Couple years ago and I was going to my doctor, he had a sign on the door with that pyramid, I told him that thing is upside down it doesn't work, I've tried that and I only get worse. The next time I went to the office, that sign was not on the door anymore. I told him more than once that I was doing the keto diet. Maybe that's all it took to get that off the door.
Almost 1 year on the PHD and I've lost 74-lbs. I'm 5"1" tall and down from 184-lbs to 110-lbs. Here's a suggestion for those of you who need to figure a way to add more salt to your diet - sprinkle a bit of salt on your coffee grounds before brewing. You will not be able to taste the salt and it will make the coffee taste less bitter. This is a trick I learned in my days as a waitress. Thank you, Dr. Berry, as it was because I listened to your advise and removed all the sugar and starches from my diet. My friends and family thought I was crazy to do so but you cannot argue with results. One of those naysayers has joined me on this journey and has lost over 50-lbs. I bet by the time you finish your quest to make Americans more healthy you will have contributed to reducing our country's obesity problem to a fourth of what it is today. As far as I am concerned you and all the other doctors in the trenches with you have earned the Presidential Medal of Freedom because what can be more critical to a nation then the health of its citizens?
Love your channel and info. Quick fasting comment. You mentioned that if you are close to ideal body weight there is no reason to fast longer than 3 days. I can think of a few good reasons to fast longer than 3 days, even if you are at ideal body weight. Dr Thomas Seyfried (cancer as a metabolic disease) recommends a 5 day water only fast once per year to decrease your chance of cancer. Also, if you have excess skin due to weight loss, my research shows that your skin elasticity can be enhanced starting around day 3 of a multiday fast. So a fast lasting longer than 3 days would be good for your skin. Regarding statin drugs, my research showed that when they did their initial studies ( I believe in the 70's), that people with the lowest cholesterol had the highest mortality. Death was due to suicide. Smoking comment. Based on my own experience, smoking is about the underlying issue of stress management. Cigarettes are a quick fix to take the edge off your day (I found them better than alcohol). Find a better way to manage your stress and you will not need the cigarettes.
My oral lichen planus resolved in 3 months of low carb (40 carbs/day). It was a mild case, not erosive, but I'd had it for 10 years, monitored by an oral pathologist who was a specialist in this area, who told me I had a classic case. So whoever was asking about lichen planus, at the very least, low carb made a difference.
Mentioning San Pelegrino really caught my attention because that is all I drink now and the Dr. Pepper Zeros are fewer all the time! I have gone 100% carnivore after watching your videos. Where were you years ago before I realized my diet was the cause of my troubles!
If I could tell people 1 thing, it would be that doctors / PAs and even nurses are just people. If you've thoughtfully considered an issue and done some research with reliable sources, YOU get to tell your doctor what YOU want. Take their advice if you want, but do NOT take their word as Gospel. That's only for God.
A friend of mine had endometrial ablation surgery which purposely destroys the uterine lining ( to help decrease menstrual flow) in which since then she believes has given her issues with bladder control. Just one reason maybe to keep all your parts if possible.
Yes, wish I would have found PHD in my twenties, would most likely still have my thyroid, gallbladder, ovaries and uterus... happy to be here even at 60, hope to hang on to all remaining body part with this WOE.
I love you honest terminology. Your videos are inspiring. I love the education! Not only, " don't eat that shit" but, this is why you shouldn't eat that shit.
After deciding to eliminate any co-morbidities I may have in case I got the virus , my local General Practitioner DO of 25 years recently gave me the bad news. After two years of Keto and regular walking I lost 60 lbs and was no longer prediabetic. My triglycerides were down and HDL went up. My blood pressure and fasting glucose were down, But my cholesterol went from 195 to 241 and my LDL went up. He did not congratulate me. He just said it was time to take Lipitor. I said no way. I then asked him if I got The virus and ended up in the hospital, would he put me on a delayed protocol treatment with Remdesivir instead of early treatment with Iver - mek - tin. He said yes. Dr. Berry, is there any way to find a new doctor in my area who doesn’t want to kill me? I am searching as I no longer trust my doctor.
I recall Dr Berry has a UA-cam video about finding a doctor. The video has links where you can enter your zip code to local doctors who are on board with keto etc. Good luck !!
I totally have had the same experience with drs. But I’ll up you one even better. I had cataract surgery 18 days ago, had a Toric lens placed in my eye, that’s the one they use to correct astigmatism. My vision is now worse than it has ever been in my entire life! I may end up visually impaired! My vision now is as if I’m looking through a piece of Saran Wrap! There may be some additional things they can do but now what, who should I be a Guinea pig for? This is also at one of the most so call prestigious eye specialists in the World!
I Fast once a week for healthy longevity and to sustain my weight . I am an exerciser still run 3 miles and walk to 8-12. Lift machines ….. Soon 80. Gained 50 lbs at one time with orange snack cracker exercising the whole time. Only a prolapse problem repairing in May. Great life still sub retired teacher HS & JH.
I am so glad you are still here! I have been running amuck for 6 months after doing keto for 2 years. I feel like crap and I have gained back 30 of the 60 pounds I lost. I need inspiration Doc.
@@ActivateMission2ThisTimeline No I don't have an eating disorder. I just stopped eating Keto for 6 months. Went back to eating a diet with carbs sugar and grains and steadily gained 5 pounds a month.
@@lindap.p.1337I just wanted to thank you again. I had never heard/seen anything by Dennis Pollock. I have been watching his videos this morning. I think this just might be the motivation I need.
To the person asking why B12 raises their blood sugar: for one it probably means that the B12 is still not enough in that too little gets absorbed. So when body sees the extra B12, it goes straight into RBC production mode, which requires sugar to fuel the new blood. In any case it seems unlikely any effect at all would be seen at sufficient B12 levels, because the body wouldn't need to do anything different.
Saw my doctor today and told him I CANNOT get into ketosis after 2 months of keto. So he told me to go carnivore, cut out ALL dairy including butter. Then said I can eat up to 5 cups daily of fruits and vegetables. 😳. How is that carnivore???? 🤦♀️. That’s carbs which are just keeping my blood sugar up. That sounds like a normal diet to me. He is the one that pushed keto to lower my A1C, so it confuses me that he says to eat carbs on carnivore.
2 Questions: 1 People are eating nose to tail these days to include brains. Is this wise and is there a risk of exposure to prions and some form of prion disease? 2. I have become aware of damaging oils by cooking with too high temp literally changing the molecular structure. Is it healthier to cook animal fats at lowered temps also to preserve their structure ? Thanks Dr Berry n crew.
I have the exact same questions about eating meat. Hope these get answered soon. My friend’ s sister in law’s sister died from prion disease several years ago which was the first person I ever heard of dying from this, and I happen to be a retired RN , so I tend to notice what and how health issues affect ppl. I have read about prion disease and found that it is horrific , but thankfully rare
Dr. Berry is a straight talking doc. I started laughing at his description of the big cookie serving sizes and had to explain to my wife what I was listening to. Also looking forward to Dr. Berry en español. That means I can send some videos to my brother-in-law who is heading down the Type 2 tubes and who doesn’t believe a word I tell him about diet and diabetes.
When I first started iodine....I got sick as hell. Not allergic but the detoxification iodine gives will make you feel like you have the flu. I had to start on very very tiny amounts until I detoxed the flouride, chlorine and bromine from my thyroid gland! Now I take normal amounts

I like what dr Anthony Chaffee said about this because it was me. Not enough fat - constipation, too much fat- diarrhea, normal BM - just right! Love dr Ken Berry!
In Germany, nutrition labelling is per 100g or 100ml, whichever applies. This eliminates the tricks manufacturers would be apt to play as seems to be the case in the US.

@@ginarodriguez7899 You can take gall supplements. Amazon has electrolyte mixes. Get one with good levels of potassium. A potassium pill only has 2% of your daily need. I use lots of Himalayan salt and it made me feel better.

Benn on Keto since September 2021, lost 22 kg all labs ok except colesterol, my Doctor removed all medications except for High pressure, thanks for all your advice and videos
I’m fairly disciplined person. On occasion I do break from keto?( I find the constant restriction of saying no to food mostly when my family eats out. N it’s different when I order same things eating out I can make at home better! Vacation is hard. It is what it is WHAT I HAVE SEEN is t who is this where is that. By WATCHING or watching what I no longer eat is sugar, gluten, cArbs are held low almost daily. I just had hand surgery; I feel I hardly have pain. Am healing well. When I have needed meds; it’s GREATLY reduced. N I feel clear minded, I’m still casted. But I am tolerating. I am frustrated W using one hand ( this is temporary)
HELP DR BERRY. Just learned my beloved Dr of 40 years is retiring. Do you know of a Dr in Louisville KY that is of the same belief, passion and like minded as you. I have to find a new Dr. Please give me a referral if you would. Thanks so much.
Dr.Berry have you ever heard of Butter Bob Briggs on here? He got discouraged because something happed to his grandchild and has not posted anymore videos. He is such a good man and so much like you and I believe he lives in Tennessee. If I could find him I would tell him to watch you and I’m telling you that if you can find him you’d be glad.
I have taken my A1C down from 8.4 to 5.33 over the last year while losing over 50 Lbs., but I've hit a road block and have not lost a pound in the last 3 months despite eating less than 1,200 cals per day...

You’re not alone. I was keto for 2 years, have been carnivore now for 3 years and I still cannot be trusted around carbohydrates!
It gets easier, but you’re an addict, I’m an addict, we’re all addicts! The easiest thing is to simply not buy carbohydrates, don’t have them in the house…I might want to eat them, but I don’t want them badly enough to go to the shops and get them 😆
@@jonchapman6821 check out DrRobert Cywes. He explains carb addiction well
me too!
Me too.
Dr Berry you’re the best! I don’t know or speak Spanish but I am absolutely positive so many Spanish-speaking people will be thrilled to have your information made easily accessible to them. I am finding your information and encouragement so invaluable. As a newbie to carnivore I worry about protein to fat ratios and how much and what type of carbohydrates if any. You answer all those questions and more. Love this channel (and Neisha’s too)! 🌷. Edit: Forty days in and down 15 lbs. I’m quite happy with that progress and have no cravings which is miraculous.
Eat my bacon and eggs with real butter every morning. I also have your wonderful book. You are amazing. You have taught me so much. I’m 73. Take No prescription meds (and no gray hair either). No aches and pains. Thanks to you I take my Lugol’s iodine drops every morning too. I would never have known to do this.
So nice no gray hair! Trying to understand the "why", do you eat alot of eggs? Thank you!
@@chucksnevah2020 Two scrambled eggs in bacon grease every morning.

@@chucksnevah2020 Did you reverse the grey hair? I've had it since my 30'S and I'm almost 70. Don't think I can change that regardless of how much bacon and eggs I eat.
@@Cocora22 I’ve never had gray hair though my sister, who is 68, did have quite a bit of gray until a couple years ago. Now she has none. She has had no junk food and has cut out all diet cokes. She drank at least two a day for several years. She eats nutritious food now and has lost several pounds too.
omad keto from day 1. Will be 3 months 4/9. Usually 21/3 but often 22/2. I never get hungry. Lost almost 30 lbs. Which has me weighing less than I did in high school. 70 year old male.
@Leslie Gibbons 4/9 ..tomorrow, will mark 3 months on keto. 21/3, for example, is 21 hours fasting with the remaining 3 hours being my eating window.
God bless you Dr Berry. Thank you, that your a REAL doctor, the honest, truthful, help people to be healthy, do no harm kind of doctor.
Thank you for doing a Spanish channel! My father is diabetic and mom has arthritis and they’re in desperate need of change but lack information on how to change their diet for ultimate health. I’ve been on keto since January 2022 and I’ve seen many changes in inflammation, migraines and more.Thank you for the info!
You are SO humble, SO genuine, SO caring , SO AUTHENTIC.... SO Truthful.... you are God Sent for this time in this world....As our world is CHANGING AND EVOLVING..... SO IS OUR DIET.... The truth is finally being EXPOSED.... and I LOVE how you are SO PASSIONATE ABOUT REACHING SO MANY PEOPLE TO BRING THEM THE TRUTH AND GET PERSONAL HEALING....... I THANK GOD for you in my prayers every night. I am a Cancer Survivor and have been Ketovore for 3 weeks and I am a CHANGED person. Wow...I cant believe how GREAT I feel.... God sent you to me and I will ALWAYS BE SO GRATEFUL TO YOU DR. BERRY..... An angel walking this earth....Your work is RAISING THE EARTHS VIBRATION!!!!!XOXOXOX
I bought the A1C test kit and did one today. It was 5.4, after being 5.9. Very happy, but will keep working on it!
I quit smoking 17 years ago. One of the best decisions I made. So far, I have no bad affects from a long history of smoking except smoker’s asthma. Keto/carnivore does help that.
I have COPD and it helps me greatly, thanks to Dr Ken.He’s awesome. I’m truly grateful 🙋🏻♀️🌟🇬🇧👏💜
27:28 OMG hubs and I laughed till we cried!! Love your down to earth style Dr Berry!
Catching the replay!💕Love all you and your wife and this community does! I went to the beach last week with none ketoers.And fell hard! But back on track &feeling great! I fast 15-16 hours and fest on Keto carnivore until 10 r 11. Love it!
Cheat days are OK as long as you get back on the Dr Berry train.
Thank you for all you do Dr. Berry. I'm down 60 pounds in 10 months, and feeling so much better.
I'm ready to start longer periods of fasting.
I'll shoot for 20 hours of fasting per day all next week, and then start fasting every other day for a week, and then go back to eating two meals a day and see how I feel.
I was anemic according to my Doctor and gave me iron pills, instead I followed Dr. Berry advice instead, (liver 3 times a week) now is normal ☝️thank you
Did they tell you why you were anemic? Not absorbing iron?
Liver- the true superfood!
Thank you Dr. Berry for all you do to help people with their health. God bless and I love your shirt.
Thank you Dr Berry, I love your great advice. I'm feeling so much better and full of energy since I started eating the proper human diet a week ago. I truly enjoyed my steak, egg, bacon and butter, this morning. 😊Thank you and bless you Dr Berry. Hello from Melbourne, Australia 😊💙
Well done Doris!!!
A big shout out from Jules in Cairns, Qld
@@Julie-nx9qy Thank you Jules, so kind of you to say so. 😊

Couple years ago and I was going to my doctor, he had a sign on the door with that pyramid, I told him that thing is upside down it doesn't work, I've tried that and I only get worse. The next time I went to the office, that sign was not on the door anymore. I told him more than once that I was doing the keto diet. Maybe that's all it took to get that off the door.
Almost 1 year on the PHD and I've lost 74-lbs. I'm 5"1" tall and down from 184-lbs to 110-lbs. Here's a suggestion for those of you who need to figure a way to add more salt to your diet - sprinkle a bit of salt on your coffee grounds before brewing. You will not be able to taste the salt and it will make the coffee taste less bitter. This is a trick I learned in my days as a waitress. Thank you, Dr. Berry, as it was because I listened to your advise and removed all the sugar and starches from my diet. My friends and family thought I was crazy to do so but you cannot argue with results. One of those naysayers has joined me on this journey and has lost over 50-lbs. I bet by the time you finish your quest to make Americans more healthy you will have contributed to reducing our country's obesity problem to a fourth of what it is today. As far as I am concerned you and all the other doctors in the trenches with you have earned the Presidential Medal of Freedom because what can be more critical to a nation then the health of its citizens?
Love your channel and info.
Quick fasting comment. You mentioned that if you are close to ideal body weight there is no reason to fast longer than 3 days. I can think of a few good reasons to fast longer than 3 days, even if you are at ideal body weight. Dr Thomas Seyfried (cancer as a metabolic disease) recommends a 5 day water only fast once per year to decrease your chance of cancer. Also, if you have excess skin due to weight loss, my research shows that your skin elasticity can be enhanced starting around day 3 of a multiday fast. So a fast lasting longer than 3 days would be good for your skin.
Regarding statin drugs, my research showed that when they did their initial studies ( I believe in the 70's), that people with the lowest cholesterol had the highest mortality. Death was due to suicide.
Smoking comment. Based on my own experience, smoking is about the underlying issue of stress management. Cigarettes are a quick fix to take the edge off your day (I found them better than alcohol). Find a better way to manage your stress and you will not need the cigarettes.
We render our own fat and we’ve found that eating the crackling has made our skin very elastic.
My oral lichen planus resolved in 3 months of low carb (40 carbs/day). It was a mild case, not erosive, but I'd had it for 10 years, monitored by an oral pathologist who was a specialist in this area, who told me I had a classic case. So whoever was asking about lichen planus, at the very least, low carb made a difference.
Thank you coach. I will be doing the eggs bacon, beef and butter for 90 days this week. I'm going to do a 48 hour water fast first
90 days this week?
I tried it and got a gout break out in my right foot only.
Why a water fast?
Thank you for addressing that too many people are carnivore or keto for weight loss.
Mentioning San Pelegrino really caught my attention because that is all I drink now and the Dr. Pepper Zeros are fewer all the time! I have gone 100% carnivore after watching your videos. Where were you years ago before I realized my diet was the cause of my troubles!
Dr. Pepper will kill your bones. I know I was abuser for over 30 years. B.C.Fracture of L1 7/4/19 not my first fall either.
Carbonated water isn't the best thing for the body from what I read.
Love the new shirt design. Just bought a tshirt and hoodie.
VIDEO IDEA. Benefits of donating blood on a keto diet. Thanks
I would like to know too. I give blood every 56 days and I wonder if there is a benefit to it (other than helping somebody).
I'm so happy you tell it like it is. More Doctor s need to be honest.
UA-cam is my preferred. Appreciate your info about arthritis. Thanks.
Wow Dr. B! That is awesome💯. Caring is sharing.
Thx 4 the español ✌.
If I could tell people 1 thing, it would be that doctors / PAs and even nurses are just people. If you've thoughtfully considered an issue and done some research with reliable sources, YOU get to tell your doctor what YOU want. Take their advice if you want, but do NOT take their word as Gospel. That's only for God.
🤣 Dr Berry I ❤️ how you cuss 😂 When we got to the cookie conversation and “break that b**tch in a quarter size” is priceless 💕💕💕
A friend of mine had endometrial ablation surgery which purposely destroys the uterine lining ( to help decrease menstrual flow) in which since then she believes has given her issues with bladder control. Just one reason maybe to keep all your parts if possible.
Yes, wish I would have found PHD in my twenties, would most likely still have my thyroid, gallbladder, ovaries and uterus... happy to be here even at 60, hope to hang on to all remaining body part with this WOE.
I love you honest terminology. Your videos are inspiring. I love the education! Not only, " don't eat that shit" but, this is why you shouldn't eat that shit.
I started this journey to reduce pain and inflammation. I'm feeling much better and have lost 28 pounds in about 5 weeks.
Thank you Dr Berry for sharing this knowledge. From South Africa 👍
Thank you ! Your shirt instructed me on dropping my sugar reading from 144 to 75 in one day.
After deciding to eliminate any co-morbidities I may have in case I got the virus , my local General Practitioner DO of 25 years recently gave me the bad news. After two years of Keto and regular walking I lost 60 lbs and was no longer prediabetic. My triglycerides were down and HDL went up. My blood pressure and fasting glucose were down, But my cholesterol went from 195 to 241 and my LDL went up. He did not congratulate me. He just said it was time to take Lipitor. I said no way. I then asked him if I got The virus and ended up in the hospital, would he put me on a delayed protocol treatment with Remdesivir instead of early treatment with Iver - mek - tin. He said yes. Dr. Berry, is there any way to find a new doctor in my area who doesn’t want to kill me? I am searching as I no longer trust my doctor.
I recall Dr Berry has a UA-cam video about finding a doctor. The video has links where you can enter your zip code to local doctors who are on board with keto etc. Good luck !!
I totally have had the same experience with drs. But I’ll up you one even better. I had cataract surgery 18 days ago, had a Toric lens placed in my eye, that’s the one they use to correct astigmatism. My vision is now worse than it has ever been in my entire life! I may end up visually impaired! My vision now is as if I’m looking through a piece of Saran Wrap! There may be some additional things they can do but now what, who should I be a Guinea pig for? This is also at one of the most so call prestigious eye specialists in the World!
@@Cocora22 Thanks for this. I too will be doing cataracts in the next year or two and will keep your info in mind.
Great decision!
I Fast once a week for healthy longevity and to sustain my weight . I am an exerciser still run 3 miles and walk to 8-12. Lift machines ….. Soon 80. Gained 50 lbs at one time with orange snack cracker exercising the whole time. Only a prolapse problem repairing in May. Great life still sub retired teacher HS & JH.
Now I am confused. I thought I was supposed to avoid red meat. I have had a heart attack.
I am so glad you are still here! I have been running amuck for 6 months after doing keto for 2 years. I feel like crap and I have gained back 30 of the 60 pounds I lost. I need inspiration Doc.
What are you eating to gain so much weight? Do you have a eating disorder?
@@ActivateMission2ThisTimeline No I don't have an eating disorder. I just stopped eating Keto for 6 months. Went back to eating a diet with carbs sugar and grains and steadily gained 5 pounds a month.
I understand. I did the same. Now I am working to lose again. I got remotivated by watching Dr. B and Dennis Pollock. That was what I needed.
@@lindap.p.1337 thank you so much Linda.
@@lindap.p.1337I just wanted to thank you again. I had never heard/seen anything by Dennis Pollock. I have been watching his videos this morning. I think this just might be the motivation I need.
To the person asking why B12 raises their blood sugar: for one it probably means that the B12 is still not enough in that too little gets absorbed. So when body sees the extra B12, it goes straight into RBC production mode, which requires sugar to fuel the new blood. In any case it seems unlikely any effect at all would be seen at sufficient B12 levels, because the body wouldn't need to do anything different.
I need one of those t-shirts!!! 💕
Saw my doctor today and told him I CANNOT get into ketosis after 2 months of keto. So he told me to go carnivore, cut out ALL dairy including butter. Then said I can eat up to 5 cups daily of fruits and vegetables. 😳. How is that carnivore???? 🤦♀️. That’s carbs which are just keeping my blood sugar up. That sounds like a normal diet to me. He is the one that pushed keto to lower my A1C, so it confuses me that he says to eat carbs on carnivore.
Hello Dr. Berry n Carry,
So happy to back in touch with you 2. You are so informative,
Please ,please stay with us".
We love you both ❣️Priscilla
2 Questions: 1 People are eating nose to tail these days to include brains. Is this wise and is there a risk of exposure to prions and some form of prion disease? 2. I have become aware of damaging oils by cooking with too high temp literally changing the molecular structure. Is it healthier to cook animal fats at lowered temps also to preserve their structure ? Thanks Dr Berry n crew.
I have the exact same questions about eating meat. Hope these get answered soon. My friend’ s sister in law’s sister died from prion disease several years ago which was the first person I ever heard of dying from this, and I happen to be a retired RN , so I tend to notice what and how health issues affect ppl. I have read about prion disease and found that it is horrific , but thankfully rare
If you're on a budget invest in a soda stream and make your own sparkling water. I did it's great.
One of your BEST videos ever! Thank you Dr B!
Dr. Berry is a straight talking doc. I started laughing at his description of the big cookie serving sizes and had to explain to my wife what I was listening to.
Also looking forward to Dr. Berry en español. That means I can send some videos to my brother-in-law who is heading down the Type 2 tubes and who doesn’t believe a word I tell him about diet and diabetes.
Sit with him and play a few of these videos. This Dr comes across with authority. High sugar can injure or kill.
When I first started iodine....I got sick as hell. Not allergic but the detoxification iodine gives will make you feel like you have the flu. I had to start on very very tiny amounts until I detoxed the flouride, chlorine and bromine from my thyroid gland! Now I take normal amounts
I like the Beef, Butter shirt, but there's too many ampersands to where it just doesn't look quite right. 🤔
Should read:
Beef
Butter
Bacon &
Eggs.
When we want to emphasize the importance of every item, we use ‘and’ or ampersands after each one.

Had a down day…. Doing better… just fyi… I usually have a week down with my fibromyalgia attacks… only 2 days… wasn’t really expecting it to happen… never had it with my raw veggie diet or my keto diet… I mostly get them when I’m stressed out… but I’m retired and I just hike and camp a lot now… not real stressed any more…. Sorry!
I do not fast with intention, I grew up lacking food availability, I do however eat much less often on PHD naturally by listening to my hunger cues...
Helpful tip!!:
Constipation is due to not eating enough fat or salt or BOTH.
Hello Carisa
I like what dr Anthony Chaffee said about this because it was me. Not enough fat - constipation, too much fat- diarrhea, normal BM - just right!
Love dr Ken Berry!

Carnivore diet for two weeks. Blood sugars 200 to254. When does blood sugar go down.? No sugar, no carbs. Thanks.
In Germany, nutrition labelling is per 100g or 100ml, whichever applies. This eliminates the tricks manufacturers would be apt to play as seems to be the case in the US.
UA-cam is normally my favorite social media. I only really use FB to keep up with a couple of close friends or family.
I went on a fasting for 25 hours. I watched your video on hidden sugars.Ive been eating sausage with sugar in it. I'm so aggravated I started this Carnivore diet Feb. 16, 2022. Just lost 20 lbs. I've been so nauseous. Bad liquid poo too.
I got headache of bacon and sausage guess it was cheap crap

I only do Facebook and UA-cam. I have forgotten how to get onto Patreon.
I’m fairly disciplined person. On occasion I do break from keto?( I find the constant restriction of saying no to food mostly when my family eats out. N it’s different when I order same things eating out I can make at home better!
Vacation is hard. It is what it is WHAT I HAVE SEEN is t who is this where is that.
By WATCHING or watching what I no longer eat is sugar, gluten, cArbs are held low almost daily. I just had hand surgery; I feel I hardly have pain. Am healing well. When I have needed meds; it’s GREATLY reduced. N I feel clear minded, I’m still casted. But I am tolerating. I am frustrated W using one hand ( this is temporary)
GAB, ODYSEE, BITCHUTE and TELEGRAM; however I do watch youtube for talks like this. Essentially I believe in freedom of speech.
