@@LillieKane I just got a big order of carnivore crisps and they're great! I'm enjoying the liver and heart crisps because I don't normally eat organ meat, and I figure this is a good way to get that extra nutrition. My wife says those ones tastes like dogfood, but she's not a carnivore so what does she know?😅
I had one on once, wanted to see what bread does it to your suger levels (had not touched bread for months). The idea was to compare white bread to whole grain. In theorie It would not make a difference. I had fasted for 16 ours, than had 4 slices of whole grain bread. Got a spike of 200 and a drop to 54. Bread = sugar. No difference with white bread, no difference with thick butter or chees on top. Don't eat bread, it's just sugar.
Thank you for enduring ALL that, wow..I hope you are back to feeling good again..oh I just realized it was 5 months ago..oops well yes you definitely have been feeling better..thanks again for being a guinea pig for health!
Aww thanks so much! I really appreciate you saying that. I find a lot of people are trained to be opinionators verses observers. I try to keep an opinion mind, everything is "right" and "wrong", "good" and "bad" based on someone's personal experiences and perspectives. I'm very bad at getting in disagreements because I recognize that, even in the heat of the moment :D Have a great Monday!
Thank you. Very informative. I do think people should be informed but having the government mandate things like CGM's is not good. These covid mandates have truly hurt people and I don't want the gov getting any more power.
This was great! Now you need to get the cgm company to sponsor 2 of your followers who are still trying to get healthy with the carnivore diet and see how someone with metabolic syndrome can really see how food affects them!
I found through my personal experience, that the CGM readings were often 20 or more lower than the blood glucose strips readings. Nevertheless, by having both readings, it gave me a picture of where my blood glucose levels were.
Thanks for sharing this! I know that if we take different things (oura ring, cell phone, CGM) while walking, they will all tell us different step counts for our walks as well. I guess we'll never know which one gives the most precise numbers but like you said, they are all pretty close! Thanks again, have a great week!
As a type 1, I've been using cgms for 10 years. They all have a accuracy range of about 40.... this meanings the readings can range from 20 above to 20 below what the number actually is. From a type 1s perspective that's not all that bad. Even the strips have an accuracy range.
Thank you for your videos. Your positivity and high energy are just infectious. (Better than coffee!) For the 2 weeks you had the CGM, how was that experience in a physical sense? Did you ever bump into things? Was it cumbersome at the gym? What brand did you use? Also interested in the sticker you used to cover the CGM (for when i'm at the gym) Pro's and Con's of that particular CGM? Very curious. Also, as a type 2 diabetic... Your worst numbers are me at my best numbers. LOL. Thanks for this. It's very illuminating.
Hey Ron! Wearing the CGM for the 2 weeks did not impact my day to day. I honestly forgot I was wearing it sometimes. I didn't bump into anything but if you did, that sucker is really stuck on there. The CGM comes with the sticker which was incredibly sticky so even while taking a shower, after 2 weeks, that sticker was just as stuck onto my arm as the first day. The con to using this CGM was having to scan it within 8 hours because I would forget and then it will lose your data if you don't scan it. But if someone is just making sure to scan after each meal or a few times a day, then they wouldn't have this problem. The pros were endless. When you use NutriSense, they assign you a dietitian who sends you regular emails about your CGM results and who guides you all the way. Honestly my dietitians emails were so long and detailed, I was very much impressed. The CGM shows even more data than just blood sugars, it tracks your steps, your sleep score, and more. I went with NutriSense who did give me a $50 off code to give to my subscribers. Use code Lillie50 for $50 off at checkout. Here is the link to their website if you want to check them out: www.nutrisense.io/ Have an awesome day! :D
You did a really good job explaining how these monitors work on the arm I’ve considered getting one but now you’ve made it compelling that I could work it accurately
That's a very tight range for blood sugar. My mother had a stroke and I took care of her for the last 5 years of her life. And bought a CGM for her before it was cool. She was diabetic 2 with a horrible A1C. Her doctor put her on metformin which was a horrible poison that not only didn't help with her blood sugar, it caused terrible diarrhea. Her doctor never asked about her diet. I changed her diet to low carbs and brought her A1C down to pre-diabetic with a dramatic change. And she quit metformin. When her blood sugar would spike over 200 which it would do rather easily depending on the food, she would have pain in her legs and other parts of her body. So it's not just "oh this is bad" it also has real consequences in terms of pain. Also, huge spikes in blood sugar cause you to get tired. Which is another problem.
I totally agree that CGM should be available for anyone who would want to learn what foods and things do to us. It's a tool like none other. Simple learning about how your body works is KEY!! and can lead to better decisions regarding health. I'm living proof of that. My son was diagnosed with Type one a couple of years back and we could never convince him to try the Dexcom that we bought for him right out of the gate. (he's on libre now for years). so I ended up putting it on myself and I truly learned a lot!! (I've been keto/keto-vor for exactly a year now at 56 years old and all six of my heart event risks have reversed! ALL SIX. and that's just from learning what foods actually do to me! (lost 40lbs and have kept it off for the entire year as well). CGMS should NOT require a dr's Prescription. I just got one a couple of months ago without a prescription from SaveRite (libre2).
Your lean mass and regular workouts likely improve your metabolic health significantly as increases your capacity for glucose disposal/storage. Totally agree that everyone should try out a CGM at least once, I've seen many people make lasting changes after learning what their bodies do in response to many foods!
Great video. Yes everyone should do similar experiments. Yes when fat and sugar are mixed will generally cause the highest spikes. Can also have "Dawn effect" spikes. YES spikes can be good. As you found it will spike during times of excitement, stress and exercise yet we know exercise is good. You skipped the glucose readings during sex. Many people find interesting results : )
VERY interesting. You really have some issues with certain foods. I’ve been experimenting for a couple years now with various differences in carnivore ie Dr Saladino . I’m curious why three servings of fruit affected you so much. Just more proof to me that we are ALL very different and there is no one perfect diet far all. Your videos have progressed so much it’s been fun to watch. Your attitude is also uplifting so it’s easy to watch. Thanks for that experiment. That had to be tough to stay on top of.
I'm sure the stomach pain and constipation feeling was because my body isn't used to having that much fiber in one time but I'm sure if I continually did it, then my body would learn to digest and process the fruit/fiber better. I don't think the dandruff would improve though. Thanks for the kind message! Hope you make today a good one!
Did you ever figure out what is causing your excema/psoriasis? I have that same nasty stuff in my hair and behind my ears. I stopped drinking coffee and that helped a lot. I had blood blisters behind my ears that went away with no coffee which is known to cause inflammation and aggravate psoriasis.
Hey Lillie, thanks so much for sharing your results, awesome video. 🙂❤❤❤. I wonder why that honey looks like that, for me it doesn't look like natural honey, i could be wrong. I just haven't seem it like that. 🍯🐝
Did you ever try restaurant food? I went to a restaurant and had salmon and tried to avoid any obvious carbs on the plate but my blood sugar still shot up like crazy. When I cook at home nothing ever happens to my blood sugar.
I’ve tried this as well! Most fruits won’t change your blood sugar! As it has fiber(lowers glucose release/insulin spike) and has fructose(which doesn’t use insulin, it could activate a glute channel which could potentially increase how quick you can take up glucose!)
I was hoping for a test eating a bunch of ice cream or drinking a large Circle K Coca-Cola like 36 Oz or eating a large fast food meal to see those blood sugar effects.
Fantastic! So glad you did this. More data is always helpful. And your numbers are excellent. Gluconeogenesis spiking glucose levels certainly not shown here either.
I have found the CGMs to be off on actual numbers quite a bit, but I look at the trends. They also lag by a bit because how they don't read the actual blood. Mine kept setting off the low sugar alarm and I am very sure my sugar was not that low.....
I see you said you didn't like the honey, were you eating raw/organic honey or was it regular processed honey? If you just swallow it completely the whole tablespoon at once it's not that bad!
My arm was a little sore the first few days (same pain level of having a bruise). It was actually sleeping and laying on my arm where I felt most sore but again, just a sore feeling, not a pain feeling, if that makes sense. Great question!
I am a 76 year old diet controlled type 2. If I go over 80 grams of actual protein in a day my bg will climb1.2 grams per kilo of desired weight is my limit.
Have you tried doing only segmented berries as a fruit choice? I usually stick to segmented berries, banans, and peeled apples for my fruits. Never got digestive distress or diarrhea from fruits, but I definitely would if I drank that glass of milk. Cottage cheese is always my choice over milk, but that's just me.
I'm sure it's because my body isn't used to digesting all that fiber and if I did it consistently I wouldn't have issues with it either but because I don't normally do that, it was harder for me to digest :)
It depends on how you are able to process sugar and carbs. Sounds like you're able to process those things. Some people have to limit them, or remove them from their diet completely because of how their bodies react to the sugar in their system.
Oh Lillie. I’m struggling so much to stay on carnivore. I just want to eat avocados, tomatoes, berries……omg mashed potatoes. I keep thinking about doing Mediterranean. I have a lot of experience cooking that way and it’s my favorite. Does anyone else struggle with this? I’m on a high fat carnivore diet. I eat about 80% fat.
Hi Tabitha! All those foods sound fine to me. Why are you trying to eat strict carnivore? What is your goal? I would focus on your why each day and ask "are these other foods helping me reach my goal? Why am I reaching for these other foods? Am I bored? Am I still hungry? Did I not eat enough at lunch? Am I stress eating? Can I do some meditation, breathing practices, take a walk instead? Why do I keep grabbing for those foods and what are the repercussions? Is it worth it?"
@@LillieKane the reason I’m strict carnivore is because I have several autoimmune disorders. I’m not overweight and I feel pretty good. I’m trying to go into remission. But my passion is cooking! Not just for me but for my family. I keep thinking I need another habit but there’s nothing I love more than creating a beautiful Mediterranean dish! I wish my why felt like enough. Thank you for getting back to me. I came to watch you for the added support because you’re my favorite but I still feel like a whole food Mediterranean diet could be okay…maybe lol
So, our bodies can process glucose quickly, even if we are using ketones for energy, (Ketone adapted) and glucose does not linger in blood and goes right into our cells. So, switching from different sources of energy is easy to do for our bodies, and we don't have to be "adapted" to use different sources of energy. Right? Now, I have a question, if we eat fat and sugar together, can glucose monitor, recognize glucose attached to fat molecule in the blood? I wonder if you eat lots of fat and fruits at the same time, what would the monitor show? Also, if the reading is accurate, if monitor, cannot recognize the glucose that has attached to fat molecules or not?
The CGM wouldn't be able to recognize glucose attached to the fat molecule in the blood. As far as what would the monitor show, you could always test just eating meat and seeing what the monitor shows, then just eat fruit and seeing what the CGM show, and then eating both meat and fruit and seeing the results :)
If I have too much sugar within a day or two my elbows get all dry and gross overnight. I hardly ever use moisturizer unless it's winter but dry elbows will haunt me if I have anymore than 80 carbs.
my doctor called me and cried when he saw my spikes. i got mad and told him to f*ck off. i regret it bc he was a good guy but i was in a bad state and i went of rails and joined the foreign legion in botzwana and ended up kidnapped by a cartel member and it all ended by me escpaing over the indian ocean in a life raft while being chased by 50 cartel member with machine guns but i survived. thanks for reading.
According to the fruitarians & vegans there is a "science" to food/fruit combining and so those three separate fruits you ate all at once could have caused you gut distress because of improper food combining. Or the fruit was unripe, which is what messes me up EVERY TIME.
I thought you were going to eat a whole bag of Halloween candy and give us the result. 😋Now I'm curious what white rice does to my blood sugar. I don't have a CGM, just a stick. It's funny you eat liver but you don't like honey!
Wow ... super jealous of your blood sugars. I'm diabetic and when I eat meat my blood sugar goes to 300 to 350. Your extremely healthy! I'm working on that that!
A note about the protien spiking the blood sugar. I'm note sure if I'm correct on this. But I recall Dr kay saying your meant to spike your blood sugar at a meal with protien. That's how you know your getting enough?
I thought carnivores ingest fat for energy because they’re not eating carbs. I also thought your body uses protein for bones, muscles, and other body infrastructure. Therefore, you can’t function purely on protein. No?
Check out Nutrition Detective UA-cam channel. Please learn critical information about cholestasis and liver issues, most of us dealing with it to varying degrees.
I was just about to type in "Sounds like you are metabolically healthy" and then you said it, lol. I would suspect that continued eating of fruit and honey for months/years that you blood glucose would rise and stay elevated proving that your routine Carnivore WOE is working for you and the SAD WOE is not healthy.
LOL! They were mid-thaw. You're right, they were really flippin cold (not completely frozen but still quite icey!) I'm sure that didn't help with the stomach pain lol
Another great one. I agree about the CGM, would be cool if health care would provide every adult with one for 30 days so they can test themselves.
Thanks! YES! I think it would be very transformative if they provided each adult one at some point in their life. Hope you have a smiley day :)
I used the same one Kane used for 3 months, cost $250 a month to expensive to continue.
they should be given to every 10 year old.
Been doing carnivore for three years now and I love your content and brand.

It ABSOLUTELY SPIKES my blood sugar if i have too much protein but Im 51……….
Please give us the update on yourscalp as i have same problem. Cheers
The CGM on the back of the arm was okay to wear but now I have new ones that I'm supposed to put on my belly. Haven't bothered to wear them yet
Thats wild she barely spiked from that fruit. Fruit spikes me like crazy but donuts, pancakes, French toast, bread hardly make me move
I see you said you didn't like the honey, were you eating raw/organic honey or was it regular processed honey? If you just swallow it completely the whole tablespoon at once it's not that bad!
Interesting. I noticed I was having some scalp issues a couple of weeks ago when for some bizarre reason I veered extremely off course from keto.
I have never managed to spike my blood sugar with anything other than carbs but lots of protein probably raises the average over a day
Did you feel the pin in your arm while working out?
My arm was a little sore the first few days (same pain level of having a bruise). It was actually sleeping and laying on my arm where I felt most sore but again, just a sore feeling, not a pain feeling, if that makes sense. Great question!

You might as well eat a big Hershey bar instead of a banana, the spike is about the same. All fruits contain sugar,
One table spoon of honey is about 17g of carbs. Why did you expect to spike with 17g of carbs?
Funny I eat 6 servings of fruit I don't experience any pain and my bowels are perfect
I'm sure it's because my body isn't used to digesting all that fiber and if I did it consistently I wouldn't have issues with it either but because I don't normally do that, it was harder for me to digest :)
@@LillieKane depends on the type of fruit also, I digets bananas perfect but the high fiber ones like those berries you ate I can't do it

How does this diet help or hurt seasonal allergies and constipation?

Carbs are good for you, it's about balance. My sweet spot is 150g to 200g
The CGM wouldn't be able to recognize glucose attached to the fat molecule in the blood. As far as what would the monitor show, you could always test just eating meat and seeing what the monitor shows, then just eat fruit and seeing what the CGM show, and then eating both meat and fruit and seeing the results :)
How are your kidney numbers (creatinine, BUN, eGFR) eating all of that protein?
I would also like to know this
If I have too much sugar within a day or two my elbows get all dry and gross overnight. I hardly ever use moisturizer unless it's winter but dry elbows will haunt me if I have anymore than 80 carbs.
I can eat low carb produce in high quantities with no problems though.
Could you do a experiment were you drink a diet soda with you meal to see what happens 🤔

Lol I would freak out before putting it in too

I'm pretty sure I've seen ronnie Coleman eat 100g of protein shake befire sleep 🤔
Can't excess protein spike insulin to bring BS down?
👍

What kind of honey did you eat? It looked very thick and cloudy, not a clear amber color like I’m used to. It looked old.
It looks like Manuka honey.
According to the fruitarians & vegans there is a "science" to food/fruit combining and so those three separate fruits you ate all at once could have caused you gut distress because of improper food combining. Or the fruit was unripe, which is what messes me up EVERY TIME.
It’s interesting that in ayurveda the combination of milk and banana is specifically deemed problematic
Where would I get CGM or blood glucose strips? Thank you for any responses and suggestions ☺️
I got my CGM from NutriSense: www.nutrisense.io/

Have a great week Jody! :)
Oh wow, thank you! That’s so kind!
👏👏👏👏👏👏
Have an awesome Monday Tom!😊
was it raw honey?
I thought you were going to eat a whole bag of Halloween candy and give us the result. 😋Now I'm curious what white rice does to my blood sugar. I don't have a CGM, just a stick. It's funny you eat liver but you don't like honey!
So bananas seem like a culprit, along with multi fruits
Comment on screen @ 7;40 wild game is leanest you can get !!! lean meaning no fat,,,,
Totally! Bison is one of the leanest meats I eat :D
looks like that honey needed to be warmed before serving. That wasn't how I know honey to look fresh
Im afraid that little needle will break off into my body hahah
Yesterday I had to have Bryce pull it out. I couldn't do it. It grossed me out so much hahaha I was nervous about the needle too!
Wow ... super jealous of your blood sugars. I'm diabetic and when I eat meat my blood sugar goes to 300 to 350. Your extremely healthy! I'm working on that that!
A note about the protien spiking the blood sugar. I'm note sure if I'm correct on this. But I recall Dr kay saying your meant to spike your blood sugar at a meal with protien. That's how you know your getting enough?
Manuka honey tastes horrible.
What was your blood sugar during the night?
You can see it in the graphs. 70-85.
@@wocket42 thanks I was just listening not watching the video
I wonder why an Rx is required for theses?
I sometimes get tired of jabbing my fingers.
I’m consistently under 100 but curious about potential spikes.
maybe your fast transition from keto to high carb give you this results
I thought carnivores ingest fat for energy because they’re not eating carbs. I also thought your body uses protein for bones, muscles, and other body infrastructure. Therefore, you can’t function purely on protein. No?
She still eats and drinks carbs. She’s not strict carnivore.
@@taoist32 so omnivore?
@@TheMaximer16 Yes

I don't know how you eat the same things day in and day out! Don't you get bored ever? I get bored eating the same things more than once a week lol. 🙃
If your not diabetic I don't see why people do this. If you don't have issues I doubt you would be affected. 🤷
To see how different foods, stresses and exercises impact blood sugars :)
Instead of honey, could have had real maple syrup poured onto bacon.
You're still young, wait until you're in your 50's or 60's, then you'll see those blood sugar spikes, with milk and fruit, honey.
I was just about to type in "Sounds like you are metabolically healthy" and then you said it, lol. I would suspect that continued eating of fruit and honey for months/years that you blood glucose would rise and stay elevated proving that your routine Carnivore WOE is working for you and the SAD WOE is not healthy.
She's scared of eating protein without the fat lol cause she knows she's diabetic.
Where on earth does one find a girl like you?
Wtf, did you seriously eat these fruits frozen out of the freezer? No wonder you got stomach pain lol
LOL! They were mid-thaw. You're right, they were really flippin cold (not completely frozen but still quite icey!) I'm sure that didn't help with the stomach pain lol
your body digestive system is so weak. sone fruit nearly kills you. your gut bacteria needs help
Because you're not insulin resistant
