How to start the keto diet: healthhomeandhappiness.com/ho...
The carnivore diet typically only includes ‘meat and no plants’ including muscle meat (steaks, roasts, ground meat, etc), offal (liver, kidneys, etc), and bones and cartilage as made into bone broth. Fish, poultry, and red meat are all consumed. Eggs (ie bite-sized meat) are usually allowed. Sea salt and other seasonings are allowed, with a strict warning against ‘plants’. In some versions, things that come from animals (cheese, milk) are also allowed.
The carnivore diet gives the body a significant shift to try to clear up chronic or acute health conditions. In addition, people try the carnivore diet to be trendy or to experiment with different ways of eating.
Temporary? Yes or no. Some people eat for this for a 1-week or 1-month reset, some make it a permanent way of eating.
Difficulty level: Simple, but difficult. This diet will put you into ketosis if you aren’t already on keto (doing keto before carnivore is a common progression) transitioning into ketosis can make people sick for the first few days/week.

Dr Atkins died from falling on ice, hit his head. Dr Atkins did not die of heart attack. That is a myth perpetuated by stupid people who don't fact check what they hear. The China study was proven to be garbage, grow up & do some fact checking.
Melania Gladis ,that wahtnI found out from his wife ,,,vegan tell it wrong ,they photoshop his picture ,so he look like 600 lb ,they do not do a very good job ,because his head and hands still slim
Been doing carnivore and love it. I too am O-negative blood :)
Hey yuo need eat meat too it will cure yuor mentall illnes.
Melanie Gladics.
could you point me to a source that proves that the Chinese study is garbage ??
Love how you jump right into the video within 3 seconds
Texas Buzzard right
Agree 100% I hope to NEVER hear “hi guys” again!
youtube in general could learn a lot from that
Succinct on UA-cam is beautiful
Texas Buzzard yesssssss
Mental health yes, i suffered with depression and brain fog, got off of carbs and sugars and all my symptoms went away. Started eating sugar and carbs again and 3 weeks later my symptoms came back.
humans weren't meant to consume the amount of refined sugar and carbs like we are doing now.
@@metsrus maybe u should just add continuously, because sugar abundance is not unusual in the environment but wasn`t available forever all over the place.
Well, if you are so concerned about carbs, just eat a keto vegan diet. I don't recommend it though. Too much carbs is bad, but too little carbs is bad too.
@@pascalbruenner, the real problem can't be too much or too little actually it's all about the absorption and the combination of macros that make the biggest impact; nutrients absorption isn't a passive process and blood composition is rigorously monitored and for that our diet has full potential to make those critical phases more or less stressful (damaging for some diet) for the whole body.
@keith cunningham " there is essential fat and essential protein necessary in the human diet. These are 2 food groups that are 'essential'... necessary for our health. There is no such a thing as an essential carbohydrate. None, zero as in never were sugars or any carbohydrate necessary for human development. "
Okinawans in the 1950s ate 85% of total calories from carbohydrates and they were the longest living population on Earth until they changed their diet. They had virtually no obesity and very low disease rates as well.

You're so lucky. Elk, grass feed, wild salmon...it's heaven there.
It is! I love Montana.
Thought the same... Greetings from Germany
Salmon in Montana? Like Kokanee salmon?
He went up to Alaska for the salmon :)
Health, Home, and Happiness ooh yummy!
I thought this was crazy until it was pointed out to me, the Vikings lived in a area where they couldn't have possibly gotten fruits and veggies on a regular basis and they're famous for being taller than everyone else and sailing all around and kicking people's asses. I don't think it's possible for them to have been unhealthy.
also natives , inuits , settler in north of Canada did not have banana trees also . necessity to eat Fruits is a lie pushed upon us to push us to consummate. especially fruits vs green plants. fruits should be considered as a treat only ....
They definitely ate veggies. Dark greens. I wonder if they ate seaweed.?
Very few edible plants can grow in the Scandinavian climate. For the most part it’s only going to be vegetation that herbivores can eat.
@@abssnipes Very interesting.
Not true. They were unhealthy. What they did differently than us is they didn't worry so much as we do ;)
5 months carnivore, after being keto 1 year. Feeling great, energy all day, my sleep is better, my gym training improved. I am way calmer than before and the cognitive benefits are better than on keto.
I still use coffee and I am also fasting/OMAD. Fiber is optional, your gut microbiome will adjust to this.
I am really impressed with this diet.
Good luck with your experiments! 😉
John Thunder thank you! I’m glad this is working so well for you :) I would love to be OMAD but I haven’t quite gotten there yet. Goals!
I’m so jealous because I can’t practice the carnivore diet full time
@@PakkiNakki Well, try to get most of your nutrition from animal products. Do what works for you.
John Thunder There’s conscription in my country so the government force-feeds me crap.
@@PakkiNakki That's sad :(
Thank you for making this. I am an omnivore and my sister is a vegan. She has been hospitalized many times. She also has mental health problems. She believes that she is eating healthy and cannot understand what is wrong. I kept telling her that I do not believe the vegan diet is healthy, but she refuses to listen to me.
theres a lot of ex vegan videos on youtube you can show her
Show her Frank Tufano's videos. Or sv3rige's ex vegan interviews.
@@arazacmed665 normally I would say that is good advice, but with her, that would be starting a huge fight.
Science says otherwise, a Whole food plant based diet is the healthiest diet on earth & can prevent 9 of the 10 top killers. Maybe her diet has too much junk food in it?
Just let your sister live her own ethics, damn!
I've been doing primarily carnivore or 13.5 months and feel AWFUL when I eat most plants. This diet is the most amazing I've felt in 10 years. Diagnosed with Parkinson's in Dec 2014 and was declining for 5.5 years prior. Carnivore has given me my life back. I honestly can't recommend it to others yet as I don't know the effects it has on everyone, but I want to get the message out that it's worth trying. Highly recommend listening to your body on this. If it's working you will know by how you feel. It has cleared up a myriad of smaller health issues, as well as arthritis and sleep behaviour disorder, as well as improved sleep, amazing skin/hair/nails/teeth. The PD isn't gone, but it isn't getting worse either ;)
@@liamn.3333 I am eating "normally" ;) Also I think you may have misunderstood my comment. My health has improved in every respect since dropping plants. I know it's hard for most people to wrap their head around, and until just over a year ago I wouldn't have believed it, but I am healthier not eating plants. My body is thanking me for providing what it's been missing all my life, sufficient amounts of animal foods. Hope that clarifies things :)
@@liamn.3333 r/wooosh
Another amazing carnivore story good for you, this diet was the norm for millions of year the fad diet is only a couple thousand years old the agricultural diet is the extreme.
@@bobmonk388 more and more people are getting this message and improving their health. It's so heart-warming to see :)
@@PV-free123world totally. ... agree!!
Ubout 4 months carnivore now. Best decision of my ENTIRE life!
same
have yall lost weight?
Same
@deadbutdreaming wrong
@jonsan astari The human body is made up of more foreign cells from bacteria and other microorganisms than actual human cells. What you eat is what they eat too. Fiber from different types of plants is what they feed on and what you eat is really important because of this. These bacteria make up part of your immune system which is why if you have too much antibiotics you will die. If these good bacteria die, you die. Plants rotting in your gut, is those plants feeding these good bacteria. If you eat only meat, then you starve them. We are not carnivores, we have evolved to depend on these bacteria, which is why fiber in your diet is important.
I'm on day 19 of carnivore and I have lost 10 pounds, I'm very happy about that, I had a heart attack in January with no high cholesterol and no high blood pressure, I do have inflammation and insulin resistance. so this diet makes the most sense to me, to solve these issues, I'm not having carb cravings at all, and that in itself is a miracle, my only problem is I'm getting sick of meat and cheese and bacon and eggs, I don't enjoy eating, I make myself eat out of necessity
Vegetables caused my disability, cause appendicitis caused eczema, and my vision problems and bowel issues. Since I ditched anything other than animal products I feel fantastic. My vitals are that other 20 year old, my resting heart rate is in the high 60s, and I’m almost 60 years of age. I look like I’m 35. I thought vegetables were my friend, I thought fruit was my friend and I thought grains were my friend try too. Was I ever mistaken.
My blood pressure is now 121/80!
I was a vegetarian for 20 years. I thought it was the best way. Since I started eating mostly meat (5 months now), I'm feeling so incredibly much better. Best I've felt in 20 years. I feel 10 years younger.
Great for you! 😁 Vegetarianism made my sister an invalid after 35 years. She healed herself over time with liver and chicken broth. She's nearly a carnivore now...and soooo much happier.
silvercrow, i`m CONFUSED!!!!!!!!! 20 year vegetarian .....ok.....5 months now...mmm .......that`s fine, feeling best than in 20 years.....10 years younger......What!!!! this is puts right in the middle of ur worst time! I`ll remain confused for the rest of my life, wondering myself which one is more annoying, more irritating. the vegan (harmless cheep with nutriment deficiency most of the time) or the meat-eaters who ride a car thinking it`s a bike .......................no doubt u`r truly carnivores but only in ur head!
Do you feel better when you get heart disease, cancer and diabetes?
h y Wow, eat a steak.
Vegan Atheist Pro-Choice No one should ever take you seriously. You’re obviously a troll...with your stupid anti-human name. You should really add feminist to the mix.
Did you notice a difference in mood? That’s the main thing I remember my first week of carnivore was that I was so happy for no reason
yes!
Had a large breakfast of just eggs, sausage, bacon, and milk (threw out the toast) the other day and I felt fantastic. That's what sent me here 😜
The SAD diet is deficient in almost every vitamin and mineral. Meat is the most vitamin and mineral dense food in the world. Obviously then mostly meat is the preferred human diet. Native Americans, who ate mostly meat, reportedly (from accounts by colonists) lived to 150 when settlers first arrived in the new world. They expected them to be disease ridden and unhealthy but were surprised that even the elderly were fit and strong and thrived with limited shelter in the winter. This isn't because of their active lifestyle - native american women were relatively sedentary being taught to make animal skin blankets, jewelry, and cook rather than hunt. It was because they lived off mostly meat, with small amounts of plants. Very nutritious naturally raised meat.
@@sadrien It's also the fact that people USED to eat offal. Heart, liver, kidneys, sweetbreads (glands), frys (testicals), intestines, brain etc. Most are also whole foods (contain ALL essential vitamins and minerals) but how often do you hear people become squeamish when asked if they eat offal? Offal is also cheap and in the case of liver and kidneys extremely lean. Personally I love offal but if you are new to it try lamb kidneys or heart as they are a much milder taste. Happy eating.
@@Pagatang even muscle meat contains some amount of every vitamin, but in most it is so low that standardized tests won't detect them. The organs are rich in every vitamin to the point where they make vegetables look worthless. Why get 300% of your vitamin C from a serving of vegetabls and nothing else when 8 oz liver gives you a week of your minimum requirements in everything?
7 weeks in and down 40 pounds feeling the best I have in I can't even remember. Used to get headaches at least every other day, and take 3 ibuprofen at a time, haven't taken 1 since I started. The only problem I've encountered is my coworkers are sick of me talking about carnivore.
Bill Trelinski I’m off of ibuprofen too. No more body pain.
I'm trying not to talk abou why I eat a meat heavy diet anymore.
I started because I kept hearing constant energy, no crashed, and inflammation benefits. I just went and dived in.
If i don't eat for a while I just feel hungry. Without it being accompanied by low blood glucose headache. So, constant energy.
If I eat I don't always feel like sleeping 30 min later. No crashing.
If I eat a high carb food like maize meal, I get a flare up. Funny, I get the same reaction with cooked spinach. So no more spinach. I'm gna cautiously experiment with apples. Because these have been around my heritage. Unlike seaweed or algae or chia seeds or other nonsense vegans push.
stop talking and start training, get shredded and take all their women 🔥
@@ascendtoaesthetics Alfred your a beast brother I see you everywhere my kinda guy I wish you good health and hope all is well much love from bulgaria
@@mudpieskateboards580 thanks bro I'm trying to spread the word haha, how long have you been carnivorous?
Feeling good is good enough. Screw the haters. Do what works for you and stay out of our cupboards.
Tyler Sudden, so cannabis, alcohol, drugs and a lot more do, do u really count on instant (short term) satisfaction to lay down the foundation of ur life style, ur diet or whatsoever!
Platoon!
I've been thinking about trying this - and I am grateful you have tried it, so you can share your experience with it. Thanks for making this video!
Started Keto Diet and Intermittent Fasting. Eating Carnivore eliminated my arthris pain. 62. 👍🍖
Could be the gluten because my mom also stopped eating gluten and that helped a lot. But eating a lot of protein has also been show to help with arthritis but that doesn’t mean it was the carnivore diet that did it for you it could just be that you eliminated certain things that were causing inflammation or something.
How do you do all 3?
BestCrisisActor is it keto
@@sissysimpson792 Mostly Carnivore. I don't eat as many greens that are suggested. Just a sprinkle.😏
@@moxycat314 AWESOME to hear about the helping with Arthritis. I need that so much! I'm only 2 weeks in. How long before you started seeing results?
Thank you for getting right to the point and having such a thoughtful intelligent "conversation." You have a new subscriber!
You are so authentic and down to earth. Not worried about being perfect but figuring things out for yourself. Very cool. So glad I stumbled upon your channel.
Thanks so much! I try to share real stuff since that's what helps me the most :)
I'm eating meat and some cooked veggies. Love salt too and don't worry about consuming it, we used natural salt like Celtic or Himalayan. But on occasion I crave a little fruit so eat a small portion. Thanks for sharing.
Grazing beef does not adversely affect top soil. Crops decimate top soil and soil composition.
Exactly! It's hard to describe unless you've seen the difference between feed lots and grassfed ranches.
Grazing animals actually improves top soil and general ecological health : traditional pastoralists would move their animals in an approximately 4 month pattern.
The animals don't uproot the grass (or other herbs they may eat) but tear them off at ground level. This causes the roots to die-back and this creates loam. Loam, as we know is...carbon ! This process actually traps carbon out of the atmosphere into the soil and provides a spongy layer where water evaporates much more slowly, reducing the need for extraneous water supply. The animal's waste is packed with bacteria which nourishes/replenishes the soil's natural microbial load, this fertilises the soil and feeds those torn-off plants which, during the approx 4 month rest whilst the animals are moved around, regrow, pushing out a new root system which just continues the cycle.
Of course - with the exception of specific plants that can cause ham tho livestock animals - the farmer will deal with those in different ways but usually not with chemicals - the use of pesticides/herbicides is massively reduced since poisoning one's livestock or depriving them of edible plant matter is not in the farmer's best interest.
I could go on, but for my point, suffice to say that raising livestock in this way not only produces higher nutrition content food for us, massively improves animal welfare but is way way way better for the environment than massive, chemical-laden mono-crop agriculture.
But the billion tons of animal excrements thats getting used on acres do. because noone knows what to do else wih it. It even worsen the groundwater to a large degree.
shakes shakes people literally buy truckloads of cow poop to fertilize plants. As long as the land isn’t over grazed, it’s good for the soil. Have you seen cow poop before? It’s just fermented/broken down grass and biodegrades quickly.
Herbivore fecal matter is biodegradable, carnivore is not. That being said, we have filtration systems and government regulations, and we've been doing it for years with no ill effect. Cow poop is harmless to the environment, it's actually enriching for it. My mother used our dirty guinea pig cedar chips to fertilize her garden, works wonders.
I started carnivore 3 weeks ago. I have hypoglycemia and about a week in, I started feeling a bit week, so I just added a bit of creamer to my coffee instead of heavy cream and it seemed to help. I had to drop my Dr. Pepper cold turkey and I really struggled with this and it caused migraines but it was short lived. I’ve dropped 10 lbs and happy about this.
I have a ton of respect for people that put themselves out there. Thanks for the info! :-)
You have a new subscriber I love how you just so honest with yourself:)
Love the sustainability point of view and pictures. So well put!!!!
love that you said you do it all for mental health that is my motivation for OMAD and feel super good thank you!
Thanks for sharing. I think you should also share the flops. Telling what doesn't work can be as useful as what does.
LoneWanderer360 Agreed. I am an A type and hate all the food he recommends ie soy and rice 🤮
New sub here. Thank you for your honesty. It works for ,but may not for everyone. I have been keto for 6 months and have been looking into carnivore.
Thank you! Love that this video is so efficient, pleasant & informative!
This is your third video I streamed in a row. I love how you present. I have been mostly carnivore for two months after being in strict ketosis for 8 months. I'm killing it at the gym. I am 70 years old and at my optimal weight. I draw stares from young people. Especially when I pick up the 20 lb dumbbells and hit exactly 10 reps on everything I work at. I should be ready for 22.5 in a week. Animal protein gives me power and animal fat along with plenty of a omega 3s give me energy to burn and a clear mind.
Fantastic
Dang, you are pretty good at explaining this stuff!
Keep it up!
great Video. thanks for sharing :) You have a very genuine and natural energy!
I love watching her videos. Looks like her dietary changes have made her happier. I've noticed similar improvements in mood when I switched to keto. Good content
Its actually extremely nutritious and thats why you feel so good (like I do). Liver is the absolute superfood as are eggs. All We need is there in our new diet. The sugar cravings that controlled me, are no longer even a thought (and, I work in a cafe where I'm surrounded by sugar for 8 hrs. a day). I love the new simplicity of food. I love feeling satisfied for literally hours on 1 meal. A key for me was making sure that my fat totals were equal to or greater than my protein totals (VERY important for my success on carnivore)
superfood- a nutrient-rich food considered to be especially beneficial for health and well-being.
1 Large Egg:
Vitamin A 5% Vitamin C 0%
Calcium 2% Iron 3%
Vitamin D 11% Vitamin B-6 5%
Cobalamin 10% Magnesium 1%
Total Fat 5 g 7%
Saturated fat 1.6 g 8%
Polyunsaturated fat 0.7 g
Monounsaturated fat 2 g
Cholesterol 187 mg
Liver also has alot of vitamin A so that would worry me.
A lot of people have an allergic intolerance to eggs though so its best to start without them and then add them later
@@cryptaker maybe it's an intolerance to caged, hormoned, GMO feed kind. They're very concentrated nutrition (since that goop actually feeds a developing chicken) Maybe if you get a concentrated dose of hormone laden, GMO byproduct, THATS actually the problem (just puttin' it out there as a possibility ;)
@@stephaniecostantino4883 I know that the youtuber Frank Tufano (good channel for great info) is big on buying only pastured animal products and he still has a problem with pastured eggs which he has bought directly from farmers. A number of people have legitimate intolerances to eggs, and you can take an IgG test (allergy test) to find out. Perhaps some people will be able to eat pastured eggs that aren't fed soy and aren't GMO etc, but I think this is going to be the minority of people with an allergy to them. Thankfully I can eat them though. But your point applies to raw milk as well. People with dairy intolerance can sometimes handle raw milk from jersey cows, but most of the people who are lactose intolerant don't tolerate raw milk any better than pasteurized, but a minority find that they can
Great to see rational, healthy people like you contributing to the discussion on diet. You are going to continue to see improvements for months to come (maybe years, but one can only be so healthy!)
Rational? It's not rational to go against science. Science clearly shows that a vegan diet is superior healthwise. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4073139/pdf/nutrients-06-02131.pdf
@@pascalbruenner Absolute nonsense....read up on oxalates which plants produce to PROTECT THEM AGAINST BEING EATEN derived from plants and toxic to humans.
@@lynette599 Okay, I just read about oxalates. Some oxalate rich foods include spinach, rhubarb and amaranth which make up a very small portion of your diet and oxalates are lowered through cooking anyway. You are acting like oxalates are a problem with veganism while it's actually a problem with just the oxalate rich foods. You don't have to eat those oxalate rich foods if you don't want to. Why would you have any excuse not to go vegan then? You like to focus on one little problem with a FEW plant foods that you don't even have to eat on a vegan diet, ignoring that meat is a huge contributor to hypertension, diabetes, cancer, heart disease, obesity and strokes. And the thing with animal products is that you can't remove the unhealthiness from them. You can remove oxalates from your vegan diet by eating foods low in oxalates, but there are no animal products low in heme iron, saturated fat, IGF-1, trans fats and cholesterol. This is the difference.
Awesome video ❤ This really resonates with me. Thank you ❤
I’ve been really curious about the carnivore diet (been Keto for 1 1/2 years), so I’m really enjoying your videos about your experience
I am type B and I am doing fantastic on this diet.
Good to know
Carmen's Corner your hair is beautiful
Type B can eat almost anything.
I'm type Apos and I'm also doing very well carnivore 🍖 🥓 diet.
Man it’s like I keep hearing the same things from both sides, that switching to carnivore/vegan diets completely changed their life and now the feel much better. I don’t know what to believe so I just eat whatever at this point and try to keep excessive sugar out of my diet.
Lol I love your profile name.
You are so authentic and knowledgeable. I love watching your videos Cara. Keep them coming...your biggest fan :-)
Awe, you made my day! Thank you Rechelle!
Just found your site - I like your down to earth approach! Subscribed.
Thank you ❤️
I’ve been on the carnivore diet for 167 days. I’ve felt really good on this method. Last week and yesterday, I went off of it a little and had some French fries and onions with my pattie melt. I started to feel like shit with low energy and a bad attitude. I think this incident has convinced me that the rabbit food is certainly not a good choice. I don’t like feeling tired and irritable. I was startled about just how bad I felt and I don’t want to experience that again if I don’t have to. The carnivore is a better choice of food. I have always felt great on it so it’s really my fault for trying something else. You know the old saying: “If it ain’t broke...don’t fix it.”
Since when did rabbits start eating French fries and onions?
I was getting ready to comment about the unnatural oils that are often used in frying at burger joints. But I see that Jj got to it before I did, 2 years ago!
I've done keto before and can confirm it works. Lost 60lbs. Almost gained it all back due to life issues and not following it anymore, no time to prep. Might get back into it though 😊
You definitely look Amazing ! Just starting. Already Loving it !!
This was very helpful. Thanks!
You should share the not so positive experiments too, so people get a more realistic idea of the possibilities. It also avoids people repeating potential mistakes.
Interesting. I've been Low Carbing for 20 years. But, I fell to the propaganda that even on the LC one MUST keep vegetables in the diet. Yes, I fell for it. The old defense argument against the plant-philes was "I still eat plenty of vegetables! I eat more now than I did before." It was true. I always made a point in having some broccoli or spinach or whatever with my meals. I've now given up plants altogether. I do feel better. Not hugely better, but better. As you've pointed out I makes it much easier. I'm lovin' it.
Glad you were honest. I would think that after you’ve gone through the cycle of the carnivore diet that you would finally recommend it. I did and it changed my life and my microbiome is amazing.
Thx again for the video and stay gorgeous
T V do you eat fermented foods ?
I've been on the carnivore diet for 2 months, though I still struggle with impulsive sugar consumption via ice cream, etc. I never did well on keto because I couldn't keep track of my carb intake.
Before this diet, I was one of those people that was slowly dying, calling out sick from work often, you name it. On this diet, so far I've only been sick once, but that was a cold creeping on the same time I started CV. For the first time in my life, my instincts tell me to exercise, instead of having to motivate myself to exercise! It is a positively liberating experience!!!
It helps that, thanks to this diet, I've also lost 22.5 lbs since February 13th, 2019-a mere 2 months ago! My autoimmune diseases aren't on constant guard, so I can actually function mentally and physically! Praise God, my Healer, for ALL the steps that I look back and see that led me here!!!!
"Probably not going to overeat on the carnivore diet." For those unaware, on the carnivore diet, you eat until you are satisfied. For me, "satisfaction" feels something like, "Ugh, I don't want to put another bite in my mouth." Lol When you're *hungry*, it tastes delicious!!! When you're not hungry, or maybe have some hunger, but aren't hungry enough, it still may not sound good.
Zero calorie counting. You don't have to add fat to the meat, particularly if it's fattier cuts. It is optional.
Eggs and bacon will help you meet your daily calories. I had the same issue meeting my calories on carnivore as I was also fasting daily and only eating one meal per day. I've moved to two meals and added eggs (w/butter) and bacon for my first meal. Weight loss stall, broken!
my day is eggs + bacon and lots of butter (all highest quality I can get) with a little salt and pepper for flavor. 1-2 teaspoons of cod liver oil. Then a main meal that varies from blue steak to chicken, lamb, pork or whatever I feel like. I try not to overcook my food, I want bloody meat and uncooked yolks in my eggs to preserve the nutrient content. Never felt better.
Something I learned recently. Fresh bacon grease works well to keep eggs from sticking to the pan.
Try eating raw eggs instead, they have more nutrients because the heat destroys them. The science behind "calories" is somewhat flawed.
@@infectionsman I'd like to start eating raw cage free eggs. But isn't there a bacteria issue ?
Im eating at least 6 raw eggs per day, i think there is like 1 in 200.000 eggs chance of disease here where i live. Just make sure the shell isnt cracked and that it doesnt smell/taste bad.
I love how you just jump in and cut to the chase! lol So refreshing!
Love your review. It has helped me transition. Be safe.
Great video and personal story! Cheers!
Make bone broth. You may be surprised how much tallow you can get from it, plus you get to drink an amazing elixir too. Cheers😁 Edit: Nevermind, I see you mentioned making broth. You know your stuff.
I am hypothyroid and have been keto for 10 months. My thyroid labs have improved for the first time since diagnosis several years ago. Second, my gallbladder was removed in 2013. I experience constipation on keto and carnivore. A good solution for those experiencing the same is an Ox bile supplement.
Mary Buller : hi Mary which & where do you buy ox bile supplements

I'm O- also and do well on high fat and meat diet. What's more interesting is that we seem to have the same attitude - doing it to feel good but not having it impacting social lives etc.
Really enjoyed your video. Good luck.
Thank you!
Alot of good tips. Thanks.
if you are not sure on this carvivore diet, just go on UA-cam and look for Kelly Hogan's succes story on this diet!! She has done it for 9 years now, and before that she did the keto diet..so 14 years in all, and she posted on her facebook blog her lab work, and it's damn perfect! she had to do it because she's been hassled by the vegan Community! Go check it out, you will be amazed! she lost 135 pounds, and in perfect health!!!!!
Denis Prieur, when u say vegan community it`s actually the sugar (carbohydrate if this makes someone more comfortable) it`s the endless battle Sugar-Fat-Animal Protein/Food.....................really tough.
Can you share Kelly Hogan's facebook blog here? I would love to see her lab results. Thank you Denis for sharing!
Fascinating! I've a huge carnivore to begin with, just love steak, pork, seafood, etc. I've considered trying the Carnivore Diet but my only reservation is that I'm a chef...I just love food in general and have a hard time imagining not having a plate of onions and mushrooms and a dollop of demiglace over my steak. Hard to go without fresh white asparagus in the spring and plant-based spices like cayenne. I'm an Atkins/Keto fan mostly for weight management.
I'm in Bozeman so I can appreciate all the fine game meats and grass fed beef available! Lots of trout and stuff swimmin' around in all the streams in the area.
Thanks for sharing your experiences!
If you get a chance check out Maria and Craig Emmerich (on FB and their own website) they are coming out with a Carnivore cookbook in October. They share 4 different levels of Carnivore. Level 4 includes more variety and lovely spices. Website is MariaMindBodyHealth dot com

Rob Babcock You could be animal based.
I'm getting more and more intreaged by this carnivore diet , I've been jumping back and forth from Keto to low carb and "IF" this might be a healthy thing to throw in the mix , great vid , Thanks!
Oh! A fellow Montanan! Yay! I’m contemplating starting this diet. I’m a mom of six, student, equestrian, and work in the evenings. I’m dragging butt way more often than I’d like. I need a diet change, for the sake of my health. Thanks for sharing your experience!
I'm not pure carnivore, maybe 75%. I eat one hearty meal and it is so filling and satisfying, I can usually get by on that one meal. If I do eat a second meal, it's a light meal or snack. I am able to easily do all my eating within a 6 hour window, so the remaining 18 hours is fasting. The pounds are melting off and I feel good. You are lucky to have relatively easy access to quality natural meats. Enjoy your new diet.
D Roman the hyper carnivore diet is more flexible and enjoyable, congrats on the weight loss 👍🏻
@@anthonylubic: Thanks. I am considering going full carnivore. I'm researching organ meats to get the full spectrum of nutrients and vitamins that might be lacking in eating only muscle meats.
Month 2 on carnivore, feel amazing. Blood type AB+ Mostly grass fed beef, eggs, bacon, hard cheese, fish, broth, offal.
Interesting! Thanks for sharing
I'm ab- just starting this today. I'm excited
So glad you tried it! I was going to post a comment on your last video and ask what your thoughts were!
Thanks! It's pretty cool! have you eaten this way too?
@@Healthhomehappy Yes, I have been eating Carnivore style on and off since November 2018. It has been life changing for my gut and mental health!
I have also added in some raw meat like steak tartare, Carpacio, raw egg yolks and tiny amounts of raw liver. All from local pasture raised animals. I eat Carnivore for 2 week stints, and my body naturally wants to add in veggies.
That's great! My kids used to eat raw (local grassfed, ,very clean) beef as toddlers - I think it's something that we naturally crave.
So interesting about the type O!! I am O neg as well and I have always felt better eating meat. Definitely going to try it!! Thanks for the post!!
Electrolites= Sodium, Potassium, Magnesium
There are more, just FYI.
I am looking for how much potassium to take with magnesium and have no clue!
Really looking forward to hearing how your journey goes. Thanks for sharing! I’m wondering, wouldn’t you get tired of the same flavors over and over? What would a typical packed lunch look like on a carnivore diet? Thanks!
Good questions! I'll make another video next week and gather some answers for you. This is boring, I can say that much, but it leaves lots of time for other things!
Meat and more meat. Surprisingly, it's not monotonous or boring. Even explorers who were forced to only meat for long periods of time remarked on that fact as well, going so far as to say they relished every meal.
Thanks for sharing your information.
Thanks for the info, Beautiful!
Love your point about eating locally & how that in truth, is more sustainable than mass crop production & the depletion of soil from that (& the machinery and pesticides used on top of that. I actually feel the same right here in Alberta! :) Your video was truly wonderful! :)
Thank you so much!
Except I am very leery about eating locally here in Central Florida, since the soil, if you can call it that, is mostly sand, and therefore deprived of nutrients.
Eating animals "locally" will become impossible if the demand increases. Animal agriculture takes up so much space that there wouldn't even space for all the animals to be local. Also, ironic that you bring up the mass crop production; 50% of crops are fed to animals which means that if we ate less animals, we would need less mass crop production. Nice try tho.
Your microbiome is better off without plants and fiber entirely!
The type of bacteria that thrives off fiber is the same type of bacteria which causes SIBO.
I agree I have never felt better....we were meant to be carnivores
@Burnt Orange well I'm saying regardless of all that..I've never felt so alive..I wish I would have tried carnivore long ago...very happy with my new lifestyle
with time i understood not to discard this kind of statement. we have been lied and bullshited so much about nutrition ( and other topics) that i would not be surprised at all that you are right.
@Burnt Orange i pretty much agree . however i have the feeling that by eating meat only for a certain time you might reset your body and get rid of some inflammatory syndromes. why ? because you reduce your nutrition to one simple nutriment. it give the immune system a break. however i have the feeling also that it is wise to go back to omnivorous diet (without refined sugar ) to get the benefits from plants. one think to consider also is most of allergies are from plants (some berries and fruits ) and probably plants that you are not aware of. i never heard an allergy for meat ( but i might be flat wrong also)
Fiber is basically a plumbing scrub...the real question is weather silicon dioxide (diatomaecous earth) would achieve the same effect.
Thanks for sharing!
Wow. Researching this diet. Great info.
I am a Keto teacher AKA personal trainer and I'm on day 66 of doing carnivore keto in amazing side effects I have is I'm getting insane stronger in the gym I mean everything I feel I'm getting buffer a crazy thing and why people don't talk about it I used to always have gas and now I barely ever fart but it's the best thing I've ever done I've been doing the ketogenic diet for 2 years but the carnivore diet is the coolest thing I'm not sure if I'll ever go back to plant but good job.....p.s. I'm almost stage-ready in the carnivore diet is making it just far too easy to get there.....
So glad it's working for you! I don't get gas either (I don't unless I eat sugar alcohols or grains/sugar usually) but I agree that's a nice change!
do you recommend the nutrition programs that say to eat 6 small meals a day? With carbs fats and protein? I'm thinking about buying one online but feel so much better on keto😔.
You mentioned you have been thru trauma. I have also been thru trauma and learning the stress on my adrenal gland. Scary stuff. Thank you for mentioning that and yes i believe this diet will heal the body.
A well spoken and thought out video . Thank you
Thank you! I appreciate you stopping by
The keto diet is a great transition diet to go carnivore, the body is used to fonction in ketosis already!
Wild game meat!👍👍 Only issue is elk is very lean for Carnivore/Keto without added fats.
Great video, thanks for the info, beautiful part of the world you live in 👏
Great video, good luck! I’m also trying it out and am having good results. I didn’t notice the blood type before you mentioned it but I’m also an o blood type.
i did for 3 months, i added some carbs last month, it's summer here and the electrolytes become very taxing, i'm eating the same thing but with more carbs like some fruits vegetables and sourdough, i just want to go back to full carnivore
Carnivore has been such a positive change in my life. It helps me to feel energetic, I don't get spurts of shaking starvation during the day. When it's meal time, I can take it or leave it. I was so foggy, actually wondering if I was showing symptoms of dementia just in my 30's because I couldn't focus, was confused and disoriented feeling and so on. I cut out sugars and carbs and felt awesome within a week or so. Now, I do have a few non carnivore things from time to time, such as some tomato with feta or in the summer I'll have a little fruit. I will also have honey on occasion, but very minimal. I never want to feel how I used to feel ever again. I was vegetarian for 20 years and it ruined my life. It's the least healthy I've ever been. Carnivore for the win!
Thank you for posting. You gave me so much insight on this new lifestyle. Do you feel any different when you eat elk or heavier game meat versus stakes?
I like your honesty on this subject. thank you
Great video very informative.
If your concerned about your Microbiome. Watch Some of Dr Ken Berry’s videos obout the Carnivore diet. I find him very informative as well.
Keep up the great content.
Love Dr. Berry!!
If your interested in gut and brain health there is no better source off information other than David Perlmutter. I love his books I appreciate all his interviews he's done. Theres Mikhaila Peterson and her dad Jordan Peterson(depression runs in the family, allergic to pretty much everything other than animal food), Kelly Hogan ( 9 year carnivore and blogs about it ). Frank Tufano, Primal Edge Health, Sean Baker (MD), Ken Berry (MD). All support primal dietary needs, ancestry is definitely a 100% required thing to know, David Perlmutter preaches it because theres minor differences in what each body produces so certain people don't react to something where most population does.
I'm glad you did this. You won't regret it. I wouldn't worry about the gut microbiome issue. Before I ate like this I grew a lot of my own food and lacto ferment it. I still do. What I've realized is that fermentation isn't really to ingest the probiotics from the fermented veggies. Those don't make it past your stomach since it's 1.5 ph and kills everything. Fermentation is just to simulate the digestive environment in polygastric mammals/ruminants. Those probiotics access what we can't and when we eat them they die off but our body absorbs the nutrients from the yeast bodies and broken down proform vitamins that were inaccessible to us when the vegetation was in a raw state.
The bacterial balance in our gut is intact from eating what we are designed to digest. Hypercarnivores can handle some fruit and leafy greens and things in nature and it's good to include scant amounts sometimes but it's not necessary for a healthy gut. There is quite a bit of literature from the early 1900's that highlighted all kinds of reasons it's bad to include fiber and too much plants.
Thanks for sharing.
Yes please keep us updated. I'm going to do total carnivore. Now I'm about %85 carnivore .
It seems to me that the carnivore diet is all or nothing. If I eat little bit other foods beside meat, all the other health issues come back.
@@swedensufal thats cuz you need more time to heal, after 2 years of organic keto and a few months of carnivorous i can eat all the food i was having issues with. If you cheat on the organic part then you set yourself back.
Blood type A+. Thriving on carnivore.
Interesting! Thanks for sharing, glad it's working for you
Pepper Conchobhar, great to know! I am blood type B+ and do so well on carnivore diet, mostly red meat though. I was sick most of my life growing up on pork, fish, organic chicken and grains. My families are fine with this diet. They are all blood type A and my mom is AB I think. I was in pain all the time that I could not do much at all but stay in bed. Now that I feel good on carnivore diet, I am afraid to suggest it to my family member bcos of their blood type. They do have issue with health right now but not as bad as I was. I ate mostly red meat and some fish. So what do you eat mostly?
Oh my God!!!! I thank GOD that Daphne reloaded is also blood type A. That's what convinced me to jump ship and go carnivore August of last year! It SAVED MY LIFE!!!!! I am also A blood type, I was following the blood type book but extremely raw plant based.
@@KARENboomboomROXX Guys I just got my StrateGene results back yesterday and my mind is blown. For me, it turns out that it's not about the blood type. It's about antigen excretion. I have two copies of FUT2. I'm a 'non-secretor' and that means that I don't have any blood type antigens in my saliva, gi tract, sinuses, tears, sweat, etc. Those antigens are supposed to protect us.
That leaves my mucus membranes vulnerable to every kind of infection - namely fungus. Which I happen to suffer from badly. My esophagus is scarred from thrush.
Also can't convert beta-carotene into Vitamin A and I have to get that from animal sources. (two different genes that prevent this conversion - both with double mutations for that trait so yeah. I'm NOT a genetic vegan. I am quadruple not going to convert beta-carotene! lmao! My body says to screw veganism.)
Other weird one is that I can't do the conversions for folate to choline. I have to eat choline directly. Egg yolks. Lots of egg yolks.
There's so much more, but it specifically states that I have one gene for fat breakdown that means I would do best on an "early inland hunter gatherer." I can't deal with Omega 6. Seed oils are poison to me. (I already figured that out.) As is grain-finished herbivores. I need a 2:1 Omega 6 to 3 ratio. Ridiculous. Can't cope with lectins at all. And on and on.
I process saturated fat like a champ.
I knew it. I am a freaking Carnivore, dammit. Plant are poison. Meat heals.
@@vociferonheraldofthewinter2284 wooooooow. I just didn't bother going thru with all those tests. I just ran with the blood type thing. This is amazing 😀 good for YOU 😁☝
I appreciate the honesty
Awesome ! I would love to have easy access to Elk. And yes , grazing is much much better for soil and biodiversity than crops .
You look very similar to Ellie Kemper and your facial inflections are very similar also. Crazy. Anyway interesting video. Thanks for sharing.
If you don't eat carbs, you don't really need fibre for poopin, lol.
canadian girl then why is constipation an issue when people start keto?
@@chasepotter2376 it could be a number of other issues, including low magnesium.
@@chasepotter2376 the key word here being 'start'. The keto flu never lasts and people poop without issue afterwards
yOdINGdONGmANdINGdON I don’t always.. I don’t get keto flu anymore either. Plus I always supplement with magnesium
@@chasepotter2376 do you eat fiber? I was talking about carnivore dieters
Totally agree . Energy boost is awesome along with mental fog going away. I’m doing it to heal my microbiome . Plants make me sick currently . Primal all the way for me.
It is good for you. My doctor had no objections. My a1c is down to normal. Triglycerides are down. Al was awesome
"I'm not going to push carnivore on my kids" mom points right there LOL
Very interesting about the O blood type , I'm O blood type and I love the carnivore diet .
I just had an AB and A comment that they also love it, so I might be off with the blood type thing ;) But interesting to hear your experience!
My boy's a B and supposedly can eat pretty much anything but plants have ruined his health...can't handle any sugars...meat is the only thing that doesn't hurt him...my Dad is an A and should do well on a plant based diet but he's ended up with heart disease because of all the sugars.
Also thank you for sharing!
Great point on cattle beef. Keeping it local is the best sustainable you can get too
